Threads Chapter 4
Threads Chapter 4 Reading: 4.1,4.4, 4.5 1 Process Characteristics ● Unit of resource ownership - process is allocated: ■ a virtual address space to hold the process image ■ control of some resources (files, I/O devices...) ● Unit of dispatching - process is an execution path through one or more programs ■ execution may be interleaved with other process ■ the process has an execution state and a dispatching priority 2 Process Characteristics ● These two characteristics are treated independently by some recent OS ● The unit of dispatching is usually referred to a thread or a lightweight process ● The unit of resource ownership is usually referred to as a process or task 3 Multithreading vs. Single threading ● Multithreading: when the OS supports multiple threads of execution within a single process ● Single threading: when the OS does not recognize the concept of thread ● MS-DOS support a single user process and a single thread ● UNIX supports multiple user processes but only supports one thread per process ● Solaris /NT supports multiple threads 4 Threads and Processes 5 Processes Vs Threads ● Have a virtual address space which holds the process image ■ Process: an address space, an execution context ■ Protected access to processors, other processes, files, and I/O Class threadex{ resources Public static void main(String arg[]){ ■ Context switch between Int x=0; processes expensive My_thread t1= new my_thread(x); t1.start(); ● Threads of a process execute in Thr_wait(); a single address space System.out.println(x) ■ Global variables are -
Lecture 10: Introduction to Openmp (Part 2)
Lecture 10: Introduction to OpenMP (Part 2) 1 Performance Issues I • C/C++ stores matrices in row-major fashion. • Loop interchanges may increase cache locality { … #pragma omp parallel for for(i=0;i< N; i++) { for(j=0;j< M; j++) { A[i][j] =B[i][j] + C[i][j]; } } } • Parallelize outer-most loop 2 Performance Issues II • Move synchronization points outwards. The inner loop is parallelized. • In each iteration step of the outer loop, a parallel region is created. This causes parallelization overhead. { … for(i=0;i< N; i++) { #pragma omp parallel for for(j=0;j< M; j++) { A[i][j] =B[i][j] + C[i][j]; } } } 3 Performance Issues III • Avoid parallel overhead at low iteration counts { … #pragma omp parallel for if(M > 800) for(j=0;j< M; j++) { aa[j] =alpha*bb[j] + cc[j]; } } 4 C++: Random Access Iterators Loops • Parallelization of random access iterator loops is supported void iterator_example(){ std::vector vec(23); std::vector::iterator it; #pragma omp parallel for default(none) shared(vec) for(it=vec.begin(); it< vec.end(); it++) { // do work with it // } } 5 Conditional Compilation • Keep sequential and parallel programs as a single source code #if def _OPENMP #include “omp.h” #endif Main() { #ifdef _OPENMP omp_set_num_threads(3); #endif for(i=0;i< N; i++) { #pragma omp parallel for for(j=0;j< M; j++) { A[i][j] =B[i][j] + C[i][j]; } } } 6 Be Careful with Data Dependences • Whenever a statement in a program reads or writes a memory location and another statement reads or writes the same memory location, and at least one of the two statements writes the location, then there is a data dependence on that memory location between the two statements. -

The Problem with Threads Edward A. Lee Professor, Chair of EE, Associate Chair of EECS EECS Department University of California at Berkeley Berkeley, CA 94720, U.S.A. [email protected] January 10, 2006 Abstract Threads are a seemingly straightforward adaptation of the dominant sequential model of computation to concurrent systems. Languages require little or no syntactic changes to sup- port threads, and operating systems and architectures have evolved to efficiently support them. Many technologists are pushing for increased use of multithreading in software in order to take advantage of the predicted increases in parallelism in computer architectures. -

Modifiable Array Data Structures for Mesh Topology
Modifiable Array Data Structures for Mesh Topology Dan Ibanez Mark S Shephard February 27, 2016 Abstract Topological data structures are useful in many areas, including the various mesh data structures used in finite element applications. Based on the graph-theoretic foundation for these data structures, we begin with a generic modifiable graph data structure and apply successive optimiza- tions leading to a family of mesh data structures. The results are compact array-based mesh structures that can be modified in constant time. Spe- cific implementations for finite elements and graphics are studied in detail and compared to the current state of the art. 1 Introduction An unstructured mesh simulation code relies heavily on multiple core capabili- ties to deal with the mesh itself, and the range of features available at this level constrain the capabilities of the simulation as a whole. As such, the long-term goal towards which this paper contributes is the development of a mesh data structure with the following capabilities: 1. The flexibility to deal with evolving meshes 2. A highly scalable implementation for distributed memory computers 3. The ability to represent any of the conforming meshes typically used by Finite Element (FE) and Finite Volume (FV) methods 4. Minimize memory use 5. Maximize locality of storage 6. The ability to parallelize work inside supercomputer nodes with hybrid architecture such as accelerators This paper focuses on the first five goals; the sixth will be the subject of a future publication. In particular, we present a derivation for a family of structures with these properties: 1 1. -

RESEARCH INTO COMPUTER HARDWARE ACCELERATION OF DATA REDUCTION AND SVMS BY JASON KANE A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN COMPUTER ENGINEERING UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2016 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DISSERTATION OF JASON KANE APPROVED: Dissertation Committee: Major Professor Qing Yang Haibo He Joan Peckham Nasser H. Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2016 ABSTRACT Yearly increases in computer performance have diminished as of late, mostly due to the inability of transistors, the building blocks of computers, to deliver the same rate of performance seen in the 1980’s and 90’s. Shifting away from traditional CPU design, accelerator architectures have been shown to offer a potentially untapped solution. These architectures implement unique, custom hardware to increase the speed of certain tasking, such as graphics processing. The studies undertaken for this dissertation examine the ability of unique accelerator hardware to provide improved power and speed performance over traditional means, with an emphasis on classification tasking. -
