We present results of the implementation of one MILC lattice QCD application-simulation with dynamical clover fermions using the hybrid-molecular dynamics R algorithm-on the Cell Broadband Engine processor. Fifty-four individual computational kernels responsible for 98.8% of the overall execution time were ported to the Cells Synergistic Processing Elements (SPEs). The remaining application framework, including MPI-based distributed code execution, was left to the Cells PowerPC processor. We observe that we only infrequently achieve more than 10 GFLOPS with any of the kernels, which is just over 4% of the Cells peak performance. At the same time, many of the kernels are sustaining a bandwidth close to 20 GB/s, which is 78% of the Cells peak. This indicates that the application performance is limited by the bandwidth between the main memory and the SPEs. In spite of this limitation, speedups of 8.7x (for 8x8x16x16 lattice) and 9.6x (for 16x16x16x16 lattice) were achieved when comparing a 3.2 GHz Cell processor to a single core of a 2.33 GHz Intel Xeon processor. When comparing the code scaled up to execute on a dual-Cell blade and a quad-core dual-chip Intel Xeon blade, the speedups are 1.5x (8x8x16x16 lattice) and 4.1x (16x16x16x16 lattice).
We report an implementation of a code for SU(3) matrix multiplication on Cell/B.E., which is a part of our project, Lattice Tool Kit on Cell/B.E.. On QS20, the speed of the matrix multiplication on SPE in single precision is 227GFLOPS and it becomes
We investigate implementation of lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) code on the Intel AVX-512 architecture. The most time consuming part of the numerical simulations of lattice QCD is a solver of linear equation for a large sparse matrix that repre
Proposals for physics beyond the standard model often include new colored particles at or beyond the scale of electroweak symmetry breaking. Any new particle with a sufficient lifetime will bind with standard model gluons and quarks to form a spectru
Our knowledge about the QCD phase diagram at finite baryon chemical potential $mu_{B}$ is limited by the well known sign problem. The path integral measure, in the standard determinantal approach, becomes complex at finite $mu_{B}$ so that standard M
QPACE is a novel parallel computer which has been developed to be primarily used for lattice QCD simulations. The compute power is provided by the IBM PowerXCell 8i processor, an enhanced version of the Cell processor that is used in the Playstation
