Workload Characterization of CFD Applications Using Partial Differential Equation Solvers

چکیده
Workload characterization is used for modeling and evaluating computing systems at different levels of detail. We present workload characterization for a class of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) applications that solve Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). This workload characterization focuses on three high performance computing platforms: SGI Origin2000, IBM SP-2, and a cluster of Intel Pentium Pro based PCs. We execute extensive measurement-based experiments on these platforms to gather statistics of system resource usage, which lead to a quantitative workload characterization. Our workload characterization approach yields a coarse-grain resource utilization behavior that is being applied for performance modeling and evaluation of distributed high performance metacomputing systems. In addition, this study enhances our understanding of interactions between PDE solver workloads and high performance computing platforms and is useful for tuning applications belonging to this class. !#"%$& (' "%)+*, *.-/ 1032% ( )4*, 65%718:9 ;%<%;%"% = =1 > ? > @A"%-B*DC:9 <%;%E%718%<%<%<

Exact Solution for Nonlinear Local Fractional Partial Differential Equations
In this work, we extend the existing local fractional Sumudu decomposition method to solve the nonlinear local fractional partial differential equations. Then, we apply this new algorithm to resolve the nonlinear local fractional gas dynamics equation and nonlinear local fractional Klein-Gordon equation, so we get the desired non-differentiable exact solutions. The steps to solve the examples a...

The non-local hyperbolic partial differential equations have many applications in sciences and engineering. A collocation finite element approach based on exponential cubic B-spline and quintic B-spline are presented for the numerical solution of the wave equation subject to nonlocal boundary condition. Von Neumann stability analysis is used to analyze the proposed methods. The efficiency, accu...

Fractional derivatives and integrals are new concepts of derivatives and integrals of arbitrary order. Partial differential equations whose derivatives can be of fractional order are called fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs). Recently, these equations have received special attention due to their high practical applications. In this paper, we survey a rather general case of FPDE t...
