Using HPX and LibGeoDecomp for scaling HPC applications on heterogeneous supercomputers
Thomas C. Heller, Hartmut Kaiser, Andreas Schäfer A, Dietmar Fey · 2013
With the general availability of PetaFLOP clusters and the advent of heterogeneous machines equipped with special accelerator cards such as the Xeon Phi[2], computer scientist face the difficult task of improving application scalability beyond what is possible with conventional techniques and programming models today. In addition, the need for highly adaptive runtime algorithms and for applications handling highly inhomogeneous data further impedes our ability to efficiently write code which performs and scales well.
