Abstract
MPI collective operations on multi-core clusters should be multi-core aware. In this paper, collective algorithms with hierarchical virtual topology focus on the performance difference among different communication levels on multi-core clusters, simply for intra-node and inter-node communication; Furthermore, to select befitting segment sizes for intra-node collective communication can cater to cache hierarchy in multi-core processors. Based on existing collective algorithms in MPICH2, above two techniques construct portable optimization methodology over MPICH2 for collective operations on multi-core clusters. Conforming to above optimization methodology, multi-core aware broadcast algorithm has been implemented and evaluated as a case study. The results of performance evaluation show that the multi-core aware optimization methodology over MPICH2 is efficient.
