Hybridizing S3D into an Exascale Application using OpenACC
SESSION: Direct Numerical Simulations
EVENT TYPE: Papers
TIME: 10:30AM - 11:00AM
SESSION CHAIR: Martin Berzins
AUTHOR(S):John Michael Levesque, Grout Ray, Ramanan Sankaran
ROOM:255-BC
ABSTRACT:
Hybridization is the process of converting an application with a single level of parallelism to an application with multiple levels of parallelism. Over the past 15 years a majority of the applications that run on High Performance Computing systems have employed MPI for all of the parallelism within the application. In the Peta-Exascale computing regime, effective utilization of the hardware requires multiple levels of parallelism matched to the macro architecture of the system to achieve good performance.
A hybridized code base is performance portable when sufficient parallelism is expressed in a architecture agnostic form to achieve good performance on a available systems. The hybridized S3D code is performance portable across today's leading many core and GPU accelerated systems. The OpenACC framework allows a unified code base to be deployed for either (Manycore CPU or Manycore CPU+GPU) while permitting architecture specific optimizations to expose new dimensions of parallelism to be utilized.
