چکیده

We present a CUDA C implementation of the Conjugate Gradient (CG) and multi-mass CG solver from the MILC quantum chromodynamics package to speedup improved staggered quarks computations on NVIDIA GPUs. The implementation is built on the QUDA package from Boston University. Keywordsquantum chromodynamics; MILC; GPU

Accelerating high-order WENO schemes using two heterogeneous GPUs

A double-GPU code is developed to accelerate WENO schemes. The test problem is a compressible viscous flow. The convective terms are discretized using third- to ninth-order WENO schemes and the viscous terms are discretized by the standard fourth-order central scheme. The code written in CUDA programming language is developed by modifying a single-GPU code. The OpenMP library is used for parall...

Accelerating lattice QCD simulations with 2 flavours of staggered fermions on multiple GPUs using OpenACC - a first attempt

We present the results of an effort to accelerate a Rational Hybrid Monte Carlo (RHMC) program for lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) simulation for 2 flavours of staggered fermions on multiple Kepler K20X GPUs distributed on different nodes of a Cray XC30. We do not use CUDA but adopt a higher level directive based programming approach using the OpenACC platform. The lattice QCD algorithm is...

Accelerating DEM simulations on GPUs by reducing the impact of warp divergences

A way to accelerate DEM calculations on the GPUs is developed. We examined how warp divergences take place in the contact detection and the force calculations taking account of the GPU architecture. Then we showed a strategy to reduce the impact of the warp divergences on the runtime of the DEM force calculations.

Accelerating Dust Temperature Calculations with Graphics Processing Units

When calculating the infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of galaxies in radiation-transfer models, the calculation of dust grain temperatures is generally the most time-consuming part of the calculation. Because of its highly parallel nature, this calculation is perfectly suited for massively parallel general-purpose Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). This paper presents an implementat...

Accelerating Ab Initio Nuclear Physics Calculations with GPUs

This paper describes some applications of GPU acceleration in ab initio nuclear structure calculations. Specifically, we discuss GPU acceleration of the software package MFDn, a parallel nuclear structure eigensolver. We modify the matrix construction stage to run partly on the GPU. On the Titan supercomputer at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility, this produces a speedup of approximate...
