Collaborative Scientific Data Visualization, Byeongseob Ki, Scott Klasky Jan 1996

Collaborative Scientific Data Visualization, Byeongseob Ki, Scott Klasky

Northeast Parallel Architecture Center

We have designed a collaborative scientific visualization package that will aid researchers from distant, diverse locations to work together in developing scientific codes, providing them with a system to analyze their scientific data. We have utilized Java to develop this infrastructure. Two important areas which we have concentrated on developing are 1) a collaborative framework from which the scientific data is interpreted and utilized, and 2) a framework, which is customizable to the suit the needs of a particular task and/or scientific group.


Compile-Time Performance Prediction Of Hpf/Fortran 90d, Manish Parashar, Salim Hariri Jan 1996

Compile-Time Performance Prediction Of Hpf/Fortran 90d, Manish Parashar, Salim Hariri

Electrical Engineering and Computer Science - All Scholarship

In this paper we present an interpretive approach for accurate and cost-effective performance prediction in a high performance computing environment, and describe the design of a compile-time HPF/Fortran 90D performance prediction framework based on this approach. The performance prediction framework has been implemented as a part of the HPF/Fortran 90D application development environment that integrates it with a HPF/Fortran 90D compiler and a functional interpreter. The current implementation of the environment framework is targeted to the iPSC/860 hypercube multicomputer system. A set of benchmarking kernels and application codes have been used to validate the accuracy, utility, and usability of the …


A Framework For Integrated Communication And I/O Placement, Rajesh Bordawekar, Alok Choudhary, J Ramanujam Jan 1996

A Framework For Integrated Communication And I/O Placement, Rajesh Bordawekar, Alok Choudhary, J Ramanujam

Electrical Engineering and Computer Science - All Scholarship

This paper describes a framework for analyzing dataflow within an out-of-core parallel program. Dataflow properties of FORALL statement are analyzed and a unified I/O and communication placement framework is presented. This placement framework can be applied to many problems, which include eliminating redundant I/O incurred in communication. The framework is validated by applying it for optimizing I/O and communication in out-of-core stencil problems. Experimental performance results on an Intel Paragon show significant reduction in I/O and communication overhead.
