Fault tolerance for the upcoming exascale generation has long been an area of active research. One of the components of a fault tolerance strategy is checkpointing. Petascale-level checkpointing is demonstrated through a new mechanism for virtualization of the InfiniBand UD (unreliable datagram) mode, and for updating the remote address on each UD-based send, due to lack of a fixed peer. Note that...
NAS parallel benchmarks (NPB) are a set of applications commonly used to evaluate parallel systems. We use the NPB-OpenMP version to examine the performance of the Intel's new Xeon Phi co-processor and focus in particular on the many core aspect of the Xeon Phi architecture. A first analysis studies the scalability up to 244 threads on 61 cores and the impact of affinity settings on scaling. It also...
Modern multi-core platforms are evolving very rapidly with 32/64 cores for node. Sharing of system resource can increase communication efficiency between processes on the same node. However, it also increases contention for system resource. Currently, most MPI libraries are developed for systems with relatively small number of cores per node. On the emerging multi-core systems with hundreds of cores...
Communication interfaces of high performance computing (HPC) systems and clouds have been continually evolving to meet the ever increasing communication demands being placed on them by HPC applications and cloud computing middleware (e.g., Hadoop). The PCIe interfaces can now deliver speeds up to 128 Gbps (Gen3) and high performance interconnects (10/40 GigE, InfiniBand 32 Gbps QDR, InfiniBand 54...
