  • Evaluating Performance Portability of Openmp for SNAP on NVIDIA, Intel, and AMD Gpus Using the Roofline Methodology
    Evaluating Performance Portability of OpenMP for SNAP on NVIDIA, Intel, and AMD GPUs using the Roofline Methodology Neil A. Mehta1, Rahulkumar Gayatri1, Yasaman Ghadar2, Christopher Knight2, and Jack Deslippe1 1 NERSC, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory 2 Argonne National Laboratory Abstract. In this paper, we show that OpenMP 4.5 based implementa- tion of TestSNAP, a proxy-app for the Spectral Neighbor Analysis Poten- tial (SNAP) in LAMMPS, can be ported across the NVIDIA, Intel, and AMD GPUs. Roofline analysis is employed to assess the performance of TestSNAP on each of the architectures. The main contributions of this paper are two-fold: 1) Provide OpenMP as a viable option for appli- cation portability across multiple GPU architectures, and 2) provide a methodology based on the roofline analysis to determine the performance portability of OpenMP implementations on the target architectures. The GPUs used for this work are Intel Gen9, AMD Radeon Instinct MI60, and NVIDIA Volta V100. Keywords: Roofline analysis · Performance portability · SNAP. 1 Introduction Six out of the top ten supercomputers in the list of Top500 supercomputers rely on GPUs for their compute performance. The next generation of supercom- puters, namely, Perlmutter, Aurora, and Frontier, rely primarily upon NVIDIA, Intel, and AMD GPUs, respectively, to achieve their intended peak compute bandwidths, the latter two of which will be the first exascale machines. The CPU, also referred to as the host and the GPU or device architectures that will be available on these machines are shown in Tab. 1. Table 1. CPUs and GPUs on upcoming supercomputers. System Perlmutter Aurora Frontier Host AMD Milan Intel Xeon Sapphire Rapids AMD EPYC Custom Device NVIDIA A100 Intel Xe Ponte Vecchio AMD Radeon Instinct Custom The diversity in the GPU architectures by multiple vendors has increased the importance of application portability.

  • A Survey on Bounding Volume Hierarchies for Ray Tracing
    DOI: 10.1111/cgf.142662 EUROGRAPHICS 2021 Volume 40 (2021), Number 2 H. Rushmeier and K. Bühler STAR – State of The Art Report (Guest Editors) A Survey on Bounding Volume Hierarchies for Ray Tracing yDaniel Meister1z yShinji Ogaki2 Carsten Benthin3 Michael J. Doyle3 Michael Guthe4 Jiríˇ Bittner5 1The University of Tokyo 2ZOZO Research 3Intel Corporation 4University of Bayreuth 5Czech Technical University in Prague Figure 1: Bounding volume hierarchies (BVHs) are the ray tracing acceleration data structure of choice in many state of the art rendering applications. The figure shows a ray-traced scene, with a visualization of the otherwise hidden structure of the BVH (left), and a visualization of the success of the BVH in reducing ray intersection operations (right). Abstract Ray tracing is an inherent part of photorealistic image synthesis algorithms. The problem of ray tracing is to find the nearest intersection with a given ray and scene. Although this geometric operation is relatively simple, in practice, we have to evaluate billions of such operations as the scene consists of millions of primitives, and the image synthesis algorithms require a high number of samples to provide a plausible result. Thus, scene primitives are commonly arranged in spatial data structures to accelerate the search. In the last two decades, the bounding volume hierarchy (BVH) has become the de facto standard acceleration data structure for ray tracing-based rendering algorithms in offline and recently also in real-time applications. In this report, we review the basic principles of bounding volume hierarchies as well as advanced state of the art methods with a focus on the construction and traversal.
