Abstract

Here we present a first multi-node/multi-GPU implementation of OpenCAL for grid-based high-performance numerical simulation. OpenCL and MPI have been adopted as low-level APIs for maximum portability and performance evaluated with respect to three different benchmarks, namely a Sobel edge detection filter, a Julia fractal generator, and the SciddicaT Cellular Automata model for fluid-flows simulation. Different hardware configurations of a dual-node test cluster have been considered, allowing for executions up to four GPUs. Optimal performance has been achieved in consideration of the compute/memory bound nature of both benchmarks and hardware configurations.
