Parallel Recurrence Solvers for Vector and SIMD Supercomputers

In this paper we present two algorithms for the parallel solution of first-order linear recurrences, We show that the algorithms can be used to efficiently solve both scalar and blocked versions of the problem on vector and SIMD architectures. The first ...
Performance evaluation of supercomputers using HPCC and IMB benchmarks
IPDPS'06: Proceedings of the 20th international conference on Parallel and distributed processing

The HPC Challenge (HPCC) benchmark suite and the Intel MPI Benchmark (IMB) are used to compare and evaluate the combined performance of processor, memory subsystem and interconnect fabric of five leading supercomputers - SGI Altix BX2, Cray X1, Cray ...
Nonlinear Network Programming on Vector Supercomputers: A Study on the CRAY X-MP

The parallelism built into vector supercomputers raises several challenging issues for designers of optimization algorithms. We survey recent trends in parallel computer systems and study the impact of vector computing on nonlinear network programming. ...
