Containerisation for High Performance Computing Systems: Survey and Prospects

Naweiluo Zhou, Huan Zhou, Dennis Hoppe

Containers improve the efficiency in application deployment and thus have been widely utilised on Cloud and lately in High Performance Computing (HPC) environments. Containers enca…

Collectives in hybrid MPI+MPI code: design, practice and performance

Huan Zhou, Jose Gracia, Naweiluo Zhou +1

The use of hybrid scheme combining the message passing programming models for inter-node parallelism and the shared memory programming models for node-level parallelism is widely s…

MPI Collectives for Multi-core Clusters: Optimized Performance of the Hybrid MPI+MPI Parallel Codes

Huan Zhou, Jose Gracia, Ralf Schneider

The advent of multi-/many-core processors in clusters advocates hybrid parallel programming, which combines Message Passing Interface (MPI) for inter-node parallelism with a shared…

Guaranteeing Recoverability via Partially Constrained Transaction Logs

H. Zhou, J. W. Guo, H. Q. Hu +3

Transaction logging is an essential constituent to guarantee the atomicity and durability in online transaction processing (OLTP) systems. It always has a considerable impact on pe…

Leveraging MPI-3 Shared-Memory Extensions for Efficient PGAS Runtime Systems

Huan Zhou, Kamran Idrees, José Gracia

The relaxed semantics and rich functionality of one-sided communication primitives of MPI-3 makes MPI an attractive candidate for the implementation of PGAS models. However, the pe…

DART-MPI: An MPI-based Implementation of a PGAS Runtime System

Huan Zhou, Yousri Mhedheb, Kamran Idrees +4

A Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) approach treats a distributed system as if the memory were shared on a global level. Given such a global view on memory, the user may prog…
