Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Non-blocking collective communication is a key technique for enabling overlap of collective communication and computation to achieve higher scalability on large scale parallel computers. There can be many types of implementation methods for non-blocking collective communications. To sufficiently obtain effect of overlap, appropriate method should be chosen. Therefore, it is important to study characteristics of each method. This work examined a characteristic of each method of implementation and evaluated the characteristic by performing the experiment using a simple test program. In addition to that, this work proposed an implementation with lower overhead, and evaluates the performance. From the results of these experiments, there have been some investigations to understand how to choose an appropriate method according to the characteristics of the programs.
