  • Implementing a Run-time Library for a Parallel MATLAB Compiler

    Creator:
    Malishevsky, Alexey
    Abstract:
    Programming parallel machines has been a difficult and unrewarding task. The short lifespan of parallel machines and their incompatibility have made it difficult to utilize them. Our goal here is to create an environment for parallel computing which allows users to take advantage of parallel computers without writing parallel programs....

  • PedVac - a graphical interface and front-end to a parallel pedestrian evacuation simulator

    Creator:
    Vimawala, Ankush V.
    Abstract:
    The World Trade Center disaster brought into focus, tragically, the need for well-designed evacuation systems in modem buildings. Today, designing an efficient evacuation system has become an integral part of designing large buildings. Simulation software enables an evacuation system to be evaluated. Modern day buildings, whether airports, auditoriums, public office...

  • High-performance data-parallel input/output

    Creator:
    Moore, Jason Andrew
    Abstract:
    Existing parallel file systems are proving inadequate in two important arenas: programmability and performance. Both of these inadequacies can largely be traced to the fact that nearly all parallel file systems evolved from Unix and rely on a Unix-oriented, single-stream, block-at-a-time approach to file I/O. This one-size-fits-all approach to parallel...

  • Parallel performance tuning using moments of utilization data

    Creator:
    Godin, T. J.
    Abstract:
    Many performance tuning tools for parallel software use visual representations of trace data to guide a developer towards code improvements. Most widely used visualization schemes, however, either omit useful information about time dependence of processor use, or include that information but do not scale well to long run times or...

  • Towards architecture-adaptable parallel programming

    Creator:
    Kumaran, Santhosh
    Abstract:
    There is a software gap in parallel processing. The short lifespan and small installation base of parallel architectures have made it economically infeasible to develop platform-specific parallel programming environments that deliver performance and programmability. One obvious solution is to build architecture-independent programming environments. But the architecture independence usually comes at...

  • Developing simple load sharing utilities (SLSU) for SWARM

    Creator:
    Zhao, Yan
    Abstract:
    With the strong shift toward network-centric cluster-computing workload management has become increasingly important in both industrial and academic environments. To fully harness the distributed computing resources of the 32 PC's in our department, I developed a workload monitoring system together with a few utilities for users to submit either sequential...

  • Translating MATLAB scripts into SPMD-style parallel programs

    Creator:
    Seelam, Nagajagadeswar Reddy
    Abstract:
    In this report., we address the issues of translating MATLAB scripts into SPMD-style C programs. The resulting programs, when linked with our run-time library are suitable for execution on parallel computers. We describe the design of the compiler and improvements made to it in the current version. We also describe...

  • Compiling Dataparallel C for efficient execution on tightly coupled multiprocessors

    Creator:
    Seevers, Bradley K.
    Abstract:
    We describe a set of data flow techniques and code transformations that translate a single instruction stream, multiple data stream (SIMD) Dataparallel C program into a semantically equivalent single program, multiple data stream (SPMD) C program suitable for execution on shared memory multiprocessor computers, such as the Sequent Balance and...
