1 Improving the Performance of Large-Scale Unstructured PDE Applications
Xing Cai Simula Research Lab Norway June 18, 2004

2 How can parallel PDE solvers avoid overhead due to duplicated local computations?
Overlapping DD methods may involve duplicated local computations Needed is a catagorization of the overlapping mesh points Improved parallel performance is achievable

3 Overlapping DD methods are important parallel PDE solvers
Overlapping zones exist between neighbornig subdomains, sharing some mesh points => overhead

4 Avoiding overhead due to duplicated local computations needs a “categorization”
A disjoint distribution of all the overlapping points Re-order the mesh points on each subdomain Replace “work” on certain points with communication

5 Improved parallel performance arises from removing duplicated local computations
Fewer points participate in local computations A slight increase of communication volume Sequential software is easily re-usable
