Molecular dynamics models materials by simulating each individual particle's trajectory. Many-body potentials lead to a more accurate trajectory simulation, and are used in materials science and computational chemistry. We present…

We introduce a new code for cosmological simulations, PHoToNs, which has features on performing massive cosmological simulations on heterogeneous high performance Computer (HPC) and threads oriented programming. PHoToNs adopts a hybrid…

Homotopy methods to solve polynomial systems are well suited for parallel computing because the solution paths defined by the homotopy can be tracked independently. Both the static and dynamic load balancing models are implemented in C with…

This article presents an automatic approach to quickly derive a good solution for hardware resource partition and task granularity for task-based parallel applications on heterogeneous many-core architectures. Our approach employs a…

A recent work shows how we can optimize a tree based mode of operation for a rate 1 hash function. In particular, an algorithm and a theorem are presented for selecting a good tree topology in order to optimize both the running time and the…

Graph search and sparse data-structure traversal workloads contain challenging irregular memory patterns on global data structures that need to be modified atomically. Distributed processing of these workloads has relied on server threads…

Sequential computation is well understood but does not scale well with current technology. Within the next decade, systems will contain large numbers of processors with potentially thousands of processors per chip. Despite this, many…

Algorithms that use hardware transactional memory (HTM) must provide a software-only fallback path to guarantee progress. The design of the fallback path can have a profound impact on performance. If the fallback path is allowed to run…

Discovering causal relationships from observational data is a crucial problem and it has applications in many research areas. The PC algorithm is the state-of-the-art constraint based method for causal discovery. However, runtime of the PC…

Direct-summation N-body algorithms compute the gravitational interaction between stars in an exact way and have a computational complexity of O(N^2). Performance can be greatly enhanced via the use of special-purpose accelerator boards like…

We propose a parallel graph-based data clustering algorithm using CUDA GPU, based on exact clustering of the minimum spanning tree in terms of a minimum isoperimetric criteria. We also provide a comparative performance analysis of our…

Quantum information processors need to be protected against errors and faults. One of the most widely considered fault-tolerant architecture is based on surface codes. While the general principles of these codes are well understood and…

High-Performance Computing (HPC) clusters are made up of a variety of node types (usually compute, I/O, service, and GPGPU nodes) and applications don't use nodes of a different type the same way. Resulting communication patterns reflect…

We present a mechanism to symbolically gather performance-relevant operation counts from numerically-oriented subprograms (`kernels') expressed in the Loopy programming system, and apply these counts in a simple, linear model of kernel run…

The present work attempts to integrate the independent efforts in the fast N-body community to create the fastest N-body library for many-core and heterogenous architectures. Focus is placed on low accuracy optimizations, in response to the…

In this paper, we study a parallel version of Galton-Watson processes for the random generation of tree-shaped structures. Random trees are useful in many situations (testing, binary search, simulation of physics phenomena,...) as attests…

Graphics processing units have been extensively used to accelerate classical molecular dynamics simulations. However, there is much less progress on the acceleration of force evaluations for many-body potentials compared to pairwise ones.…
