![]() ![]() Programming model is slowly losing momentum:įirst, we observe a continuing trend towards ever more complex hardwareĪrchitectures. Large arrays are divided among processors, and the patterns they use forĬommunication, need to be manually encoded. Way these processes access and manipulate their data, e. g., the way in which ![]() Usually extended with MPI for message-passing across parallel processes. ThisĮxplains the continuing dominance of languages such as Fortran, C, or C++ Traditional HPC is based on a programming model in which the programmer is inįull control over the parallel machine in order to maximize performance. Thwart software engineering aspects such as modularity and reusability. As performance and speed are key in HPC, performanceĮngineering aspects such as optimizing a program for data locality often The crossroads of software engineering, algorithms design, mathematics, and High Performance Computing (HPC) is traditionally a field that finds itself at Partitioned Global Address Space Languages. Mattias De Wael, Stefan Marr, Bruno De Fraine, Tom Van Cutsem, Wolfgang De Meuter. Message passing, one-sided communication, data distribution, data access, survey Richer data access cost models remain open challenges.ĭ.3.2 : Concurrent, distributed,Īnd parallel languages D.3.3 :Īdditional Key Words and Phrases: Parallel programming, HPC, PGAS, Our taxonomy reveals that today's PGAS languages focus onĭistributing regular data and distinguish only between local and remote dataĪccess cost, whereas the distribution of irregular data and the adoption of Is introduced, how the address space is partitioned, how data is distributedĪmong the partitions and finally how data is accessed across partitions. Survey proposes a definition and a taxonomy along four axes: how parallelism Today, about a dozen languages exist that adhere to the PGAS model. To this end, PGAS preserves the global address space whileĮmbracing awareness of non-uniform communication costs. Optimizations and to support scalability on large-scale parallelĪrchitectures. Globally shared address space improves productivity, but that a distinctionīetween local and remote data accesses is required to allow performance ![]() Model that aims to improve programmer productivity while at the same timeĪiming for high performance. Registration closes for this event when the limit is reached or on October 18, 2019.The Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) model is a parallel programming Registration is required for this event and space is limited so please register as soon as possible. The remote connection information will be provided to the registrants closer to the event. This event can be attended on-site at NERSC or remotely via Zoom. We will also look at irregular applications and how to take advantage of UPC++ features to optimize their performance. We will discuss the UPC++ memory and execution models and walk through implementing basic algorithms in UPC++. In this tutorial we will introduce basic concepts and advanced optimization techniques of UPC++. The UPC++ programmer can expect communication to run at close to hardware speeds. ![]() The UPC++ interfaces are designed to be composable and similar to those used in conventional C++. It is particularly well-suited for implementing elaborate distributed data structures where communication is irregular or fine-grained. UPC++ provides mechanisms for low-overhead one-sided communication, moving computation to data through remote-procedure calls, and expressing dependencies between asynchronous computations and data movement. UPC++ is a C++11 library providing classes and functions that support Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) programming. Registration is now open for the one day ECP/NERSC UPC++ tutorial. ![]()
