Download or read book National Software Infrastructure for Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics written by R. G. Edwards and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is the widely accepted theory of the strong interactions of quarks and gluons. Only through large scale numerical simulation has it been possible to work out the predictions of this theory for a vast range of phenomena relevant to the US Department of Energy experimental program. Such simulations are essential to support the discovery of new phenomena and more fundamental interactions. With support from SciDAC the USQCD collaboration has developed software and prototyped custom computer hardware to carry out the required numerical simulations. We have developed a robust, portable data-parallel code suite. It provides a user-friendly basis for writing physics application codes for carrying out the calculations needed to predict the phenomenology of QCD. We are using this efficient and optimized code base to develop new physics application code, to improve the performance of legacy code, and to construct higher level tools, such as QCD-specific sparse matrix solvers. We give a brief overview of the design of the data parallel API and its various components. We describe performance gains achieved in the past year. Finally, we present plans for further improvements under SciDAC-2.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time of robust worldwide debates on globalization, this compact volume shows: how successful each of the East Asian economies have been in harnessing globalization by appropriate and alternative means to catch up with the advanced economies; and what implications can be drawn to assess Chinese economic growth in context. The essays in this book include supporting notes to review effectively the highlights of the development of East Asia, over the six decades after World War II: why the region has performed so well economically relative to the rest of the developing world; which are the most challenging limitations to be addressed; and several sensational controversies in the development economics literature to be sensibly resolved.

This book was released on 2010-01-05 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique investigation of the state of the art in design, architectures, and implementations of advanced computational infrastructures and the applications they support Emerging large-scale adaptive scientific and engineering applications are requiring an increasing amount of computing and storage resources to provide new insights into complex systems. Due to their runtime adaptivity, these applications exhibit complicated behaviors that are highly dynamic, heterogeneous, and unpredictable—and therefore require full-fledged computational infrastructure support for problem solving, runtime management, and dynamic partitioning/balancing. This book presents a comprehensive study of the design, architecture, and implementation of advanced computational infrastructures as well as the adaptive applications developed and deployed using these infrastructures from different perspectives, including system architects, software engineers, computational scientists, and application scientists. Providing insights into recent research efforts and projects, the authors include descriptions and experiences pertaining to the realistic modeling of adaptive applications on parallel and distributed systems. The first part of the book focuses on high-performance adaptive scientific applications and includes chapters that describe high-impact, real-world application scenarios in order to motivate the need for advanced computational engines as well as to outline their requirements. The second part identifies popular and widely used adaptive computational infrastructures. The third part focuses on the more specific partitioning and runtime management schemes underlying these computational toolkits. Presents representative problem-solving environments and infrastructures, runtime management strategies, partitioning and decomposition methods, and adaptive and dynamic applications Provides a unique collection of selected solutions and infrastructures that have significant impact with sufficient introductory materials Includes descriptions and experiences pertaining to the realistic modeling of adaptive applications on parallel and distributed systems The cross-disciplinary approach of this reference delivers a comprehensive discussion of the requirements, design challenges, underlying design philosophies, architectures, and implementation/deployment details of advanced computational infrastructures. It makes it a valuable resource for advanced courses in computational science and software/systems engineering for senior undergraduate and graduate students, as well as for computational and computer scientists, software developers, and other industry professionals.

Download or read book Unmatched written by David Barkai and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-10-16 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unmatched: 50 Years of Supercomputing: A Personal Journey Accompanying the Evolution of a Powerful Tool The rapid and extraordinary progress of supercomputing over the past half-century is a powerful demonstration of our relentless drive to understand and shape the world around us. In this book, David Barkai offers a unique and compelling account of this remarkable technological journey, drawing from his own rich experiences working at the forefront of high-performance computing (HPC). This book is a journey delineated as five decade-long ‘epochs’ defined by the systems’ architectural themes: vector processors, multi-processors, microprocessors, clusters, and accelerators and cloud computing. The final part examines key issues of HPC and discusses where it might be headed. A central goal of this book is to show how computing power has been applied, and, more importantly, how it has impacted and benefitted society. To this end, the use of HPC is illustrated in a range of industries and applications, from weather and climate modeling to engineering and life sciences. As such, this book appeals to both students and general readers with an interest in HPC, as well as industry professionals looking to revolutionize their practice.
