Once you select an event and want to add it to your personal schedule, just click on the calendar icon of your choice (outlook calendar, ical calendar or google calendar) and that event will be stored there. As you select events in this manner, you will have your own schedule to guide you through the week.
Peta-Scale Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics on a Blue Gene/Q Supercomputer
SESSION: Massively Parallel Simulations
EVENT TYPE: Papers
TIME: 10:30AM - 11:00AM
SESSION CHAIR: Kamesh Madduri
AUTHOR(S):Jun Doi
ROOM:355-EF
ABSTRACT:
Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is one of the most challenging applications running on massively parallel supercomputers. To reproduce these physical phenomena on a supercomputer, a precise simulation is demanded requiring well optimized and scalable code. We have optimized lattice QCD programs on Blue Gene family supercomputers and shown the strength in lattice QCD simulation. Here we optimized on the third generation Blue Gene/Q supercomputer; i) by changing the data layout, ii) by exploiting new SIMD instruction sets, and iii) by pipelining boundary data exchange to overlap communication and calculation. The optimized lattice QCD program shows excellent weak scalability on the large scale Blue Gene/Q system, and with 16 racks we sustained 1.08 Pflops, 32.1% of the theoretical peak performance, including the conjugate gradient solver routines.
