Abstract

The efficient execution of scientific simulations on HPC systems requires a partitioning of the underlying mesh among the processors such that the load is balanced and the inter-processor communication is minimized. Graph partitioning algorithms have been applied with much success for this purpose. However, the parallelization of multi-phase and multi-physics computations poses new challenges that require fundamental advances in graph partitioning technology. In addition, most existing graph partitioning algorithms are not suited for the newer heterogeneous highperformance computing platforms. This talk will describe research efforts in our group that are focused on developing novel multi-constraint and multi-objective graph partitioning algorithms that can support the advancing state-ofthe-A rt in numerical simulation technologies. In addition, we will present our preliminary work on new partitioning algorithms that are well suited for heterogeneous architectures.
