Cluster Information

Summer of Fun (2009)

GalaxSee Goals

• Good piece of code, serves as teaching example for n-body problems in petascale.
• Dials, knobs, etc. in place to easily control how work is distributed when running in parallel.
• Architecture generally supports hybrid model running on large-scale constellations.
• Produces runtime data that enables nice comparisons across multiple resources (scaling, speedup, efficiency).

GalaxSee - scale to petascale with MPI and OpenMP hybrid.

• GalaxSee - render in-world and steer from in-world.
• Area under a curve - serial, MPI, and OpenMP implementations.
• OpenMPI - testing, performance.
• Start May 11th
