Cyclic Data Streaming on GPUs for Short Range Stencils Applied to Molecular Dynamics

Martin Rose, Simon Homes, Lukas Ramsperger +3

In the quest for highest performance in scientific computing, we present a novel framework that relies on high-bandwidth communication between GPUs in a compute cluster. The framew…

Callback-based Completion Notification using MPI Continuations

Joseph Schuchart, Philipp Samfass, Christoph Niethammer +2

Asynchronous programming models (APM) are gaining more and more traction, allowing applications to expose the available concurrency to a runtime system tasked with coordinating the…

Quo Vadis MPI RMA? Towards a More Efficient Use of MPI One-Sided Communication

Joseph Schuchart, Christoph Niethammer, José Gracia +1

The MPI standard has long included one-sided communication abstractions through the MPI Remote Memory Access (RMA) interface. Unfortunately, the MPI RMA chapter in the 4.0 version…

Avoiding Serialization Effects in Data-Dependency aware Task Parallel Algorithms for Spatial Decomposition

Christoph Niethammer, Colin W. Glass, Jose Gracia

Spatial decomposition is a popular basis for parallelising code. Cast in the frame of task parallelism, calculations on a spatial domain can be treated as a task. If neighbouring d…

TEMANEJO - a debugger for task based parallel programming models

Steffen Brinkmann, José Gracia, Christoph Niethammer +1

We present the program Temanejo, a debugger for task based parallelisation models such as StarSs. The challenge in debugging StarSs applications lies in the fact that tasks are sch…
