Molecular Dynamics simulations often model electrostatic interactions between charged particles. We shall consider a simulation containing N charged particles in a domain exhibiting periodic boundary conditions. Under these conditions evaluating the electrostatic interactions directly with the Coulomb potential is prohibitively expensive with a naive computational complexity of O(N^2). We present the Ewald method which is a classic method to compute these electrostatic interactions in a computationally tractable manner. We shall demonstrate a derivation of the method from Poisson's equation that exhibits O(N^3/2) computational complexity alongside some implementation results.
