ZFS Interface For Accelerators

As data volume increases in HPC centers, storing data in reasonable amounts of space and time while maintaining data integrity and recoverability becomes ever more difficult. ZFS is a filesystem that provides these features, among many others, that make it attractive for usage in HPC environments. It has the ability to compress data, compute checksums, and compute redundancy codes within the same runtime, rather than compute each separately, without knowledge of the underlying structure of the filesystem. However, measurements have shown that compression on CPUs can be incredibly inefficient and significantly reduce the performance of ZFS. The ZFS Interface for Accelerators (Z.I.A.) was developed to provide an interface to route data to accelerators while being processed by ZFS, so that the ZFS infrastructure and features are maintained, while allowing for ZFS administrators to provide faster implementations of compression, or other features, to their instance of ZFS.

JobQueue-PG: A Task Queue for Coordinating Varied Tasks Across Multiple HPC Resources and HPC Jobs

The software allows for queueing and dispatch of tasks of small, varied, or uncertain runtimes across multiple HPC jobs, resources, and other computing systems. The software was designed to allow scientists to enqueue, run, and accumulate results from computational experiments in an efficient, manageable manner. For example, the software can be used to enqueue many small computational experiments and run them using several long-running multi-node HPC jobs that may or may not run simultaneously.

Inference-Engine v0.1.0

Given a pre-trained neural network, Inference-Engine performs maps network inputs to outputs by executing the forward pass through the provided network. Although the predominant programming language for machine-learning is Python, most high-performance computing (HPC) applications are written in Fortran, C, or C++. Inference-Engine aims to support HPC programs and is written in Fortran, a language with a large feature set supporting interoperability with C. This software exposes concurrency in a portable way by using standard language features that some modern Fortran compilers can exploit with various optimizations, including offloading computation to a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). In particular, this software makes extensive use of Fortran's "do concurrent" parallel loop construct, implicitly parallel array statements, and pure procedures that can be invoked inside "do concurrent" blocks. Inference-Engine also supports dynamic choice of inference methods at runtime. Two current options include one method that uses Fortran's "dot_product" intrinsic function inside "do concurrent" blocks and another method that instead uses Fortran' "matmul" array intrinsic function. We plan to investigate automatic compiler offloading of "do concurrent" calculations to GPUs and compile-time substitution of optimized libraries such as the Basic Linear Algebra Library (BLAS) for "matmul" invocations. We also envision the potential for the choice of which method to use could happen at program launch based on in situ performance measurements on any given platform.

Caffeine v0.1.0

Caffeine is the CoArray Fortran Framework of Efficient Interfaces to Network Environments. Caffeine aims to produce a parallel runtime library that will support Fortran compilers with a programming-model-agnostic application binary interface (ABI) to various lower-level communication libraries. The current version of Caffeine uses the GASNet-EX networking middleware, also developed at Berkeley Lab. On many combinations of applications and platforms, GASNet-EX outperforms the widely used Message Passing Interface (MPI). Through GASNet-EX's support for communicating between graphics processing units (GPU), GASNet-EX has features that specifically target the emerging, leading-edge exascale computing platforms.

AGILE GETRS

AGILE GETRS provides an optimized implementation of DETRS that is faster than vendor optimized libraries for small (< 4000) problem sizes. These small problems sizes are of interest to researchers in the Grid Research Integration and Deployment Center (GRID-C) researching real-time power electronics simulations. In addition to our implementation of DETRS, this code provides a test using Google Benchmark which generates matrices of various sizes, fills them with random numbers, runs GETRS, verifies the solution is correct and reports average runtime and other performance metrics.

pnnl/arena

CFA ARENA is a novel programming model with the support of a runtime targeting asynchronous data-centric execution paradigm in a distributed system. All the machine nodes in ARENA are connected by a ring network to bring the specialized computation to the data rather than the reverse to minimize data movement. The programming interfaces are implemented using C++

NWQ-sim

NWQSim is a quantum circuit simulation environment developed at PNNL. It currently includes two major components: a state-vector simulator (SV-Sim) and a density matrix simulator (DM-Sim) and we may add more components, such as a Clifford simulator, in the future effort. NWQSim has two language interface: C/C++ and Python. It supports Q#/QDK frontend through QIR and QIR-runtime. It supports Qiskit and Cirq frontends through OpenQASM. NWQSim runs on several backends: Intel-CPU, Intel-Xeon-Phi, AMD-CPU, AMD-GPU, NVIDIA-GPU, and IBM-CPU. It supports three modes: (1) single processor, such as a single CPU (with and without AVX2 and AVX512 acceleration), a single NVIDIA GPU or a single AMD GPU; (2) single-node-multi-processors, such as multi-CPUs/Xeon-Phis, multi-NVIDA/AMD GPUs; (3) multi-nodes, such as a CPU cluster, a Xeon-Phi cluster (e.g., ANL Theta, NERSC Cori), an NVIDIA cluster (e.g., ORNL Summit, NERSC Perlmutter).

Clang UPC Compiler (Clang UPC) v3.9.1-1

Clang Unified Parallel C (Clang UPC) provides a compilation and execution environment for programs written in the UPC (Unified Parallel C) language. The Clang UPC compiler extends the capabilities of the Clang LLVM C compiler to comply with the UPC Language Specification version 1.3. It includes support for UPC collectives and a configurable pointer-to-shared representation. The compiler generates programs that run on a wide variety of systems ranging from workstations to leadership-class supercomputers, in conjunction with the Berkeley UPC runtime and GASNet communication system. This compiler generates assembly code / object code directly for Intel processors and IBM PowerPC.

Mneme

A simple tool allowing recording the execution of a GPU (CUDA) kernel and replaying that kernel as an independent executable. The tool operates in 3 phases. During compile time the user needs to apply a provided LLVM pass to instrument the code. The pass detects all device global variables and device functions and stores this information with the respective LLVM-IR in the global device memory. The compilation generates a record-able executable. The second phase involves running the application executable with a desired input and using LD_PRELOAD to enable recording. When recording before invoking a device kernel the pre-loaded library stores device memory in persistent storage and associates the memory with the device kernel and an LLVM IR file. At the end of the recorded execution the pre-load library generates a database in the form of a JSON file containing information regarding the LLVM-IR files and the snapshots of device memory. During the third and last phase the user can replay the execution of an kernel as a separate independent executable. Besides executing it the user can modify the LLVM IR file and auto-tune parameters such as kernel launch-bounds or kernel runtime execution parameters (e.g. Kernel Block and Grid Dimensions). Is

ninterp: N-dimensional interpolation Rust crate [SWR-25-25]

The ninterp crate provides multivariate interpolation over a regular, sorted, nonrepeating grid of any dimensionality. A variety of interpolation strategies are implemented, however more are likely to be added. Extrapolation beyond the range of the supplied coordinates is supported for 1-D linear interpolators, using the slope of the nearby points. There are hard-coded interpolators for lower dimensionalities (up to N = 3) for better runtime performance. All interpolation is handled through instances of the Interpolator enum, with the selected tuple variant containing relevant data. Interpolation is executed by calling Interpolator::interpolate.
