How to Boost the Performance of Your MPI and PGAS Applications with MVAPICH2 Libraries

Date and Time: 
Thursday 2018 Apr 5th
Location: 
CG Auditorium
Speaker: 
DK Panda and Hari Subramoni

The tutorial will start with an overview of the MVAPICH2 libraries and their features. Next, we will focus on installation guidelines, runtime optimizations and tuning flexibility in-depth. An overview of configuration and debugging support in MVAPICH2 libraries will be presented. Support for GPUs and MIC enabled systems will be presented. The impact on performance of the various features and optimization techniques will be discussed in an integrated fashion. `Best Practices' for a set of common applications will be presented. A set of case studies related to application redesign will be presented to take advantage of hybrid MPI+PGAS programming models. Finally, the use of MVAPICH2-EA and MVAPICH2-Virt libraries will be explained.
