We present load-balancing strategies to improve performances of parallel MPI applications running in a Grid environment. We analyze the data distribution constraints found in two scientific codes and propose adapted code transformations to load-balance computations. We present the general framework for our load-balancing techniques. We then describe these techniques as well as their application to our examples. Experimental results confirm that adapted source code transformations can improve Grid application performances.
In this paper we describe the design of a global machine independent low level optimizer for the Karlsruhe Ada Compiler. We give a short overview on the optimizations and data structures used in the optimizer as well as some experiences with the optimizer. Detailed measurements are provided for a collection of benchmarks. The average improvement of code speed is 40%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
