An overview is given of the QCDOC architecture, a massively parallel and highly scalable computer optimized for lattice QCD using system-on-a-chip technology. The heart of a single node is the PowerPC-based QCDOC ASIC, developed in…
A status report is made of an on-going full QCD study on the CP-PACS aiming at a comparative analysis of the effects of improving gauge and quark actions on hadronic quantities and static quark potential. Simulations are made for four…
We present evidence of the feasibility of using billion core approximate computers to run simple U(1) sigma models, and discuss how the approach might be extended to Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (LQCD) models. This work is motivated by…
Using a realistic molecular catalyst system, we conduct scaling studies of ab initio molecular dynamics simulations using the CP2K code on both Intel Xeon CPU and NVIDIA V100 GPU architectures. We explore using process placement and…
The exponential growth of floating point power in graphics processing units (GPUs), together with their low cost, has given rise to an attractive platform upon which to deploy lattice QCD calculations. GPUs are essentially many (O(100))…
Lattice QCD calculations were one of the first applications to show the potential of GPUs in the area of high performance computing. Our interest is to find ways to effectively use GPUs for lattice calculations using the overlap operator.…
The implementation of a proof-of-concept Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics kernel on the Cell processor is described in detail, illustrating issues encountered in the porting process. The resulting code performs up to 45GFlop/s per socket,…
QMCPACK has enabled cutting-edge materials research on supercomputers for over a decade. It scales nearly ideally but has low single-node efficiency due to the physics-based abstractions using array-of-structures objects, causing…
Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulations of lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) are the only known tool to investigate non-perturbatively the theory of the strong interaction and are required to perform precision tests of the Standard Model of…
We present a GPU implementation of LAMMPS, a widely-used parallel molecular dynamics (MD) software package, and show 5x to 13x single node speedups versus the CPU-only version of LAMMPS. This new CUDA package for LAMMPS also enables…
We review the architecture of massively parallel machines used for lattice QCD simulations and present benchmarks for the performance of popular algorithms on these platforms. We cover commercial supercomputers, PC clusters, and…
We present the final results of the CP-PACS calculation of the light hadron spectrum and quark masses with two flavors of dynamical quarks. Simulations are made with a renormalization-group improved gauge action and a mean-field improved…
We demonstrate that lattice QCD calculations can be made $10^3$--$10^6$ times faster by using very coarse lattices. To obtain accurate results, we replace the standard lattice actions by perturbatively-improved actions with tadpole-improved…
We describe the construction of a high performance parallel computer composed of PC components, present some physical results for light hadron and hybrid meson masses from lattice QCD. We also show that the smearing technique is very useful…
Quantum field theories underlie all of our understanding of the fundamental forces of nature. The are relatively few first principles approaches to the study of quantum field theories [such as quantum chromodynamics (QCD) relevant to the…
Over the past few years new physics methods and algorithms as well as the latest supercomputers have enabled the study of the QCD thermodynamic phase transition using lattice gauge theory numerical simulations with unprecedented control…
QPACE is a novel parallel computer which has been developed to be primarily used for lattice QCD simulations. The compute power is provided by the IBM PowerXCell 8i processor, an enhanced version of the Cell processor that is used in the…
We present a hybrid numerical approach to simulate quantum many body problems on two spatial dimensional quantum lattice models via the non-Abelian ab initio version of the density matrix renormalization group method on state-of-the-art…
The high-performance computing (HPC) community has recently seen a substantial diversification of hardware platforms and their associated programming models. From traditional multicore processors to highly specialized accelerators, vendors…
