The High{Level Communications Library CLIC
نویسنده
چکیده
One important class of applications for high performance computers is based on 3{ dimensional block{structured grids. Multigrid and CFD codes using nite diierence or-nite volume discretizations fall into this class of applications. As the communication parts of these application programs are similar, the central Communications Library CLIC{3D has been developed. Because the CLIC Library is based on MPI or PARMACS, the library and the applications programs are portable across all machines for which these message passing interfaces are available. In the POPINDA project, the application codes FLOWer and NSFLEX were initially parallelized using the CLIC Library in 5 and 7 days, respectively.

The Lighweight Protocol CLIC on Gigabit Ethernet
In Gigabit class networks, the physical transmission time is small compared to the time required to process the TCP/IP protocol stack. Thus, the usefulness of lightweight protocols that reduce the communication software overhead is even higher, as the performance demands shift to the network interface hardware and/or software. The communication protocol CLIC has recently been proposed for effic...
متن کاملHigh-performance and Low-power Clock Branch Sharing Pseudo-NMOS Level Converting Flip-flop
Multi-Supply voltage design using Cluster Voltage Scaling (CVS) is an effective way to reduce power consumption without performance degradation. One of the major issues in this method is performance and power overheads due to insertion of Level Converting Flip-Flops (LCFF) at the interface from low-supply to high-supply clusters to simultaneously perform latching and level conversion. In this p...
متن کاملOpen MPI: a High Performance, Flexible Implementation of MPI Point-to-Point Communications
Open MPI’s point-to-point communications abstractions, described in this paper, handle several different communications scenarios, with a portable, high-performance design and implementation. These abstractions support two types of low-level communication protocols – general purpose point-to-point communications, like the OpenIB interface, and MPI-like interfaces, such as Myricom’s MX library. ...
