Abstract-The paper presents X-KAAPI, a compact runtime for multicore architectures that brings multi parallel paradigms (parallel independent loops, fork-join tasks and dataflow tasks) in a unified framework without performance penalty. Comparisons on independent loops with OpenMP and on dense linear algebra with QUARK/PLASMA confirm our design decisions. Applied to EUROPLEXUS, an industrial simulation code for fast transient dynamics, we show that X-KAAPI achieves high speedups on multicore architectures by efficiently parallelizing both independent loops and dataflow tasks.
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.
