''' Status: ''' continuation of 2015 dev CMCC-1 [[BR]] ''' Main Tasks:''' * the activity started at the end of 2013 with the analysis of three OpenMP approaches (implemented using “mini-apps”) on several multicore architectures; the second step was the implementation of the hybrid version of the GYRE configuration using the best OpenMP approach. Some improvements to the implementation have been performed by Intel to match Intel architectures. During 2016, the extension of the hybrid implementation to the entire code is planned * analysis of scalability improvement using MPI3 new communications (e.g. collective neighbours communications), instead of point to point communications ''' Science Reviewer:''' Tim Graham[[BR]] ''' System Reviewer:''' Tim Graham[[BR]] ''' Deadline:''' December 2016[[BR]] ''' Priority:''' HIGH [[BR]] ''' Depends on:''' results of the same action in 2015[[BR]] ''' Principal Investigator : ''' Silvia Mocavero (silvia.mocavero@cmcc.it) === '''CMCC-2 - Suppress global communications ''' === ''' Motivation:''' Removing global communications could help improve the speed of NEMO [[BR]] ''' Status: ''' Not started [[BR]] ''' Main Tasks:''' * code analysis to list all mpp_sum, mpp_max, mpp_min in the code, except those used in the initialisation phase and those used in the solver routines (that will disappear). Silvia Mocavero to investigate which communications could be safely removed. Tim Graham to look at a more efficient implementation of functionality in stp_ctl * [https://forge.ipsl.jussieu.fr/nemo/wiki/discussion discussion] with NEMO_st to see what can be done to suppress the identified global communications * implementation of the solution.
