A high-level characterisation and generalisation of communication-avoiding programming techniques
Tobias Weinzierl
Abstract:Today's hardware's explosion of concurrency plus the explosion of data we build upon in both machine learning and scientific simulations have multifaceted impact on how we write our codes. They have changed our notion of performance and, hence, of what a good code is: Good code has, first of all, to be able to exploit the unprecedented levels of parallelism. To do so, it has to manage to move the compute data into the compute facilities on time. As communication and memory bandwidth cannot keep pace with the g… Show more
