Generic load balancing for HPF programs: Application to the Flame Simulation kernel
Abstract
This paper describes a scheme for implementing generic load balancing policies for irregular HPF applications. To this purpose, preemptive abstract processor migration appears to be a good support. Its implementation is based on fully preemptive thread migration. We report some encouraging results obtained with a modified version of Adaptor on a HPF flame simulation code, one of the motivation applications of HPF-2.0.
