Topic: Experimental Overhead Analysis of Dynamic Loop Scheduling Techniques
Background:
A rich source of parallelism in scientific applications are the loops
representing the underlying numerical model. The single loop iterations
are often independent from each other and can be executed in parallel.
For a load balanced execution dynamic loop scheduling techniques can be
applied. The use of DLS techniques is not restricted to loops, when
iterations are viewed as independent tasks.
Visualization of a simulation using
dynamic loop scheduling for
scheduling 1024 tasks to 32
processing elements
Tasks:



Development of a prototype of an MPI-based task scheduling
system on ZIH’s high performance computing resources
Experimental analysis of the behavior of the dynamic loop
scheduling techniques applied in different application scenes
Evaluation of the results and comparison to provided results
achieved by simulations
