Ce séminaire de l'IDRIS a eu lieu jeudi 4 juin 2009
de 10h30 à 12h dans les locaux de l'IDRIS :
Are HPCS languages the way
forward for the next generation of multi-disciplinary
Petascale research codes?
Mike Ashworth STFC Daresbury Laboratory
We introduce the Hartree Centre:
a new national and international centre for computational science in
the UK focussing on the development of new leading-edge multi-scale
multi-disciplinary application codes for grand challenge projects.
The High Productivity
Computing Systems (HPCS) project aims to create a new generation of
high end programming environments, software tools and computer
architectures. One arm of the project is developing new languages to
support the high productivity computational environment envisaged.
Three languages, Fortress, Chapel and X10, were defined in the first
phase of the project, and the latter two are being further developed
in phase 2. We will discuss the features of the three languages and
discuss the support they offer for the next generation of
multi-disciplinary Petascale research codes.
Mike Ashworth is leader of the Advanced Research Computing Group at
STFC Daresbury Laboratory in the UK. This group is engaged in the development
and optimization of large-scale applications across a wide range of scientific
disciplines for Terascale and Petascale systems. His work focuses on the
development and optimization of environmental modelling and CFD codes,
including performance engineering and application of Grid technologies. In
particular he has worked with scientists at the Proudman Oceanographic
Laboratory on the optimization of the POLCOMS coastal ocean model, its
coupling to ecosystem, wave and sea ice components and the introduction of
data assimilation techniques.
