A Run-Time System for Dynamic Grain Packing
نویسندگان
چکیده
The SCOOPP (Scalable Object Oriented Parallel Programming) system is an hybrid compile and run-time system, that extracts parallelism, supports explicit parallelism and dynamically serialises parallel tasks in excess, to dynamically scale applications through a wide range of target platforms. This paper describes the run-time system of the current SCOOPP prototype the ParC++ and its mechanism to serialise parallelism. Low level performance results are presented, which indicate that the proposed methodology is effective and provides an high reduction in parallelism overheads. These features can improve the scalability of parallel applications with excessive parallelism.

متن کاملAdaptive Message Packing for Group Communication Systems
Group communication is one of the main paradigms for implementing replication middleware. The high run-time costs of group communication may constitute a major performance bottleneck for modern enterprise applications. In this paper we investigate the applicability of message packing, a technique originally proposed by Friedman and Van Renesse in 1997 for improving the performance of group comm...

The paper describes a new approach of a flexible run-time system for handling dynamic function reconfiguration in fme-grain Virtex FPGAs, whereas the fulfillment of given real-time constraints are central. Moreover, the detailed evaluation and measurement of the power consumption situation during this dynamic reconfiguration process is essential for realistically quantifying the power loss of f...
متن کاملA SCOOPP Evaluation on Packing Parallel Objects in Run-Time
The SCOOPP (Scalable Object Oriented Parallel Programming) system is an hybrid compile and run-time system. SCOOPP dynamically scales OO applications on a wide range of target platforms, including a novel feature to perform a run-time packing of excess parallel tasks. This communication details the methodology and policies to pack parallel objects into grains and method calls into messages. The...
متن کاملA Lightweight Run-time Support for Fast Dense Linear Algebra on Multi-core
The work proposes ffMDF, a lightweight dynamic run-time support able to achieve high performance in the execution of dense linear algebra kernels on shared-cache multi-core. ffMDF implements a dynamic macro-dataflow interpreter processing DAG graphs generated on-the-fly out of standard numeric kernel code. The experimental results demonstrate that the performance obtained using ffMDF on both fi...
