We present a novel, quadrature-based finite element integration method for low-order elements on GPUs, using a pattern we call textit{thread transposition} to avoid reductions while vectorizing aggressively. On the NVIDIA GTX580, which has a nominal single precision peak flop rate of 1.5 TF/s and a memory bandwidth of 192 GB/s, we achieve close to 300 GF/s for element integration on first-order discretization of the Laplacian operator with variable coefficients in two dimensions, and over 400 GF/s in three dimensions. From our performance model we find that this corresponds to 90% of our measured achievable bandwidth peak of 310 GF/s. Further experimental results also match the predicted performance when used with double precision (120 GF/s in two dimensions, 150 GF/s in three dimensions). Results obtained for the linear elasticity equations (220 GF/s and 70 GF/s in two dimensions, 180 GF/s and 60 GF/s in three dimensions) also demonstrate the applicability of our method to vector-valued partial differential equations.

We present an algorithm for the optimization of a class of finite element integration loop nests. This algorithm, which exploits fundamental mathematical properties of finite element operators, is proven to achieve a locally optimal operation count.
In specified circumstances the optimum achieved is global. Extensive numerical experiments demonstrate significant performance improvements over the state of the art in finite element code generation in almost all cases. This validates the effectiveness of the algorithm presented here, and illustrates its limitations.
In this work we formally derive and prove the correctness of the algorithms and data structures in a parallel, distributed-memory, generic finite element framework that supports h-adaptivity on computational domains represented as forest-of-trees. Th
e framework is grounded on a rich representation of the adaptive mesh suitable for generic finite elements that is built on top of a low-level, light-weight forest-of-trees data structure handled by a specialized, highly parallel adaptive meshing engine, for which we have identified the requirements it must fulfill to be coupled into our framework. Atop this two-layered mesh representation, we build the rest of data structures required for the numerical integration and assembly of the discrete system of linear equations. We consider algorithms that are suitable for both subassembled and fully-assembled distributed data layouts of linear system matrices. The proposed framework has been implemented within the FEMPAR scientific software library, using p4est as a practical forest-of-octrees demonstrator. A strong scaling study of this implementation when applied to Poisson and Maxwell problems reveals remarkable scalability up to 32.2K CPU cores and 482.2M degrees of freedom. Besides, a comparative performance study of FEMPAR and the state-of-the-art deal.ii finite element software shows at least comparative performance, and at most factor 2-3 improvements in the h-adaptive approximation of a Poisson problem with first- and second-order Lagrangian finite elements, respectively.
The numerical solution of partial differential equations using the finite element method is one of the key applications of high performance computing. Local assembly is its characteristic operation. This entails the execution of a problem-specific ke
rnel to numerically evaluate an integral for each element in the discretized problem domain. Since the domain size can be huge, executing efficient kernels is fundamental. Their op- timization is, however, a challenging issue. Even though affine loop nests are generally present, the short trip counts and the complexity of mathematical expressions make it hard to determine a single or unique sequence of successful transformations. Therefore, we present the design and systematic evaluation of COF- FEE, a domain-specific compiler for local assembly kernels. COFFEE manipulates abstract syntax trees generated from a high-level domain-specific language for PDEs by introducing domain-aware composable optimizations aimed at improving instruction-level parallelism, especially SIMD vectorization, and register locality. It then generates C code including vector intrinsics. Experiments using a range of finite-element forms of increasing complexity show that significant performance improvement is achieved.
This paper is devoted to the development of highly efficient kernels performing vector operations relevant in linear system solvers. In particular, we focus on the low arithmetic intensity operations (i.e., streaming operations) performed within the
conjugate gradient iterative method, using the parameters specified in the CEED benchmark problems for high-order hexahedral finite elements. We propose a suite of new Benchmark Streaming tests to focus on the distinct streaming operations which must be performed. We implemented these new tests using the OCCA abstraction framework to demonstrate portability of these streaming operations on different GPU architectures, and propose a simple performance model for such kernels which can accurately capture data movement rates as well as kernel launch costs.
This work is a user guide to the FEMPAR scientific software library. FEMPAR is an open-source object-oriented framework for the simulation of partial differential equations (PDEs) using finite element methods on distributed-memory platforms. It provi
des a rich set of tools for numerical discretization and built-in scalable solvers for the resulting linear systems of equations. An application expert that wants to simulate a PDE-governed problem has to extend the framework with a description of the weak form of the PDE at hand (and additional perturbation terms for non-conforming approximations). We show how to use the library by going through three different tutorials. The first tutorial simulates a linear PDE (Poisson equation) in a serial environment for a structured mesh using both continuous and discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods. The second tutorial extends it with adaptive mesh refinement on octree meshes. The third tutorial is a distributed-memory version of the previous one that combines a scalable octree handler and a scalable domain decomposition solver. The exposition is restricted to linear PDEs and simple geometries to keep it concise. The interested user can dive into more tutorials available in the FEMPAR public repository to learn about further capabilities of the library, e.g., nonlinear PDEs and nonlinear solvers, time integration, multi-field PDEs, block preconditioning, or unstructured mesh handling.
