چکیده

This work describes an apparatus which can be used to vary communication performance parameters for MPI applications, and provides a tool to analyze the impact of communication performance on parallel applications. Our tool is based on Myrinet (along with GM). We use an extension of the LogP model to allow greater flexibility in determining the parameter(s) to which parallel applications may be sensitive. We show that individual communication parameters can be independently controlled within a small percentage error. We also present the results of using our tool on a suite of parallel benchmarks.

Correctness Checking of MPI One-Sided Communication Using Marmot

The MPI-2 standard defines functions for Remote Memory Access (RMA) by allowing one process to specify all communication parameters both for the sending and the receiving side, which is also referred to as one-sided communication. Having experienced parallel programming as a complex and error-prone task, we have developed the MPI correctness checking tool MARMOT covering the MPI-1.2 standard an...

Doppler-Derived Myocardial Performance Index in Healthy Children in Shiraz

Background: Assessment of myocardial function is essential in heart disease, but in regard to systolic and diastolic functions such evaluation has limitation. Ejection fraction is difficult to assess in abnormally-shaped ventricles, and diastolic inflow velocity pattern may be fused because of tachycardia. Objective: A myocardial performance index (MPI) or Tei index has been developed for adult...
