Oak Ridge National Laboratory approves Appentra project
Summary
The Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility´s (OLCF) has approved Appentra´s project CSC193 titled “Porting Parallware tool to large HPC installations including Titan.” The project, which extends through September 30, 2016, includes an allocation of 50,000 core hours on the Titan supercomputer at the OLCF, a US Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science User Facility located at DOE’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In addition, the company will conduct benchmarking of the OpenMP-enabled parallel programs generated by the Parallware Compiler on Titan. The benchmarking experiments will use sample programs representative of relevant fields of computer science and engineering. Feedback will enable Appentra to identify and prioritize user needs to address in future versions of the tools. Oak Ridge National Laboratory is supported by the US Department of Energy’s Office of Science.
