When a code is converted from the sequential form to the parallel form, data dependence is a main problem. A traditional sequential molecular dynamics code is anatomized to find the data dependence segments in it, and the two different methods, i.e., recover method and backward mapping method were used to eliminate those data dependencies in order to realize the parallelization of this sequential MD code. The performance of the parallelized MD code was analyzed by using some performance analysis tools. The results of the test show that the computing size of this code increases sharply form 1 million atoms before parallelization to 20 million atoms after parallelization, and the wall clock during computing is reduced largely. Some hot-spots in this code are found and optimized by improved algorithm. The efficiency of parallel computing is 30% higher than that of before, and the calculation time is saved and larger scale calculation problems are solved.展开更多

While providing unprecedented capabilities to conduct computational experiments of historic significance, these systems are presently difficult to program. The users, who are domain experts rather than computer experts, prefer to use programming models closer to their domains （e.g., physics and biology） rather than MPI and OpenME This has led the development of domain-specific programming that provides domain-specific programming interfaces but abstracts away some performance-critical architecture details. Based on experience in designing large-scale computing systems, a hybrid programming framework for scientific computing on heterogeneous architectures is proposed in this work. Its design philosophy is to provide a collaborative mechanism for domain experts and computer experts so that both domain-specific knowledge and performance-critical architecture details can be adequately exploited. Two real-world scientific applications have been evaluated on TH-IA, a peta-scale CPU-GPU heterogeneous system that is currently the 5th fastest supercomputer in the world. The experimental results show that the proposed framework is well suited for developing large-scale scientific computing applications on peta-scale heterogeneous CPU/GPU systems.展开更多
