Improving Hpc Communication Library Performance On Modern Architectures, Matthew G. F. Dosanjh Oct 2017

Improving Hpc Communication Library Performance On Modern Architectures, Matthew G. F. Dosanjh

Computer Science ETDs

As high-performance computing (HPC) systems advance towards exascale (10^18 operations per second), they must leverage increasing levels of parallelism to achieve their performance goals. In addition to increased parallelism, machines of that scale will have strict power limitations placed on them. One direction currently being explored to alleviate those issues are many-core processors such as Intel’s Xeon Phi line. Many-core processors sacrifice clock speed and core complexity, such as out of order pipelining, to increase the number of cores on a die. While this increases floating point throughput, it can reduce the performance of serialized, synchronized, and latency sensitive code …

In this paper, we develop a new approach to deal with neutrosphic shortest path problem in a network in which each edge weight (or length) is represented as triangular fuzzy neutrosophic number. The proposed algorithm also gives the shortest path length from source node to destination node using ranking function. Finally, an illustrative example is also included to demonstrate our proposed approach.


Characterizing And Improving Power And Performance In Hpc Networks, Taylor L. Groves May 2017

Characterizing And Improving Power And Performance In Hpc Networks, Taylor L. Groves

Computer Science ETDs

Networks are the backbone of modern HPC systems. They serve as a critical piece of infrastructure, tying together applications, analytics, storage and visualization. Despite this importance, we have not fully explored how evolving communication paradigms and network design will impact scientific workloads. As networks expand in the race towards Exascale (1×10^18 floating point operations a second), we need to reexamine this relationship so that the HPC community better understands (1) characteristics and trends in HPC communication; (2) how to best design HPC networks to save power or enhance the performance; (3) how to facilitate scalable, informed, and dynamic decisions within …
