The FFT of three-dimensional (3D) input data is an important computational kernel of numerical simulations and is widely used in High Performance Computing (HPC) codes running on a large number of processors. Performance of many scientific applications such as Molecular Dynamic simulations depends on the underlying 3D parallel FFT library being used. In this paper, we present C-DACs three-dimensional Fast Fourier Transform (CROFT) library which implements three-dimensional parallel FFT using pencil decomposition. To exploit the hyperthreading capabilities of processor cores without affecting performance, CROFT is designed to use multithreading along with MPI. CROFT implementation has an innovative feature of overlapping compute and memory-I/O with MPI communication using multithreading. As opposed to other 3D FFT implementations, CROFT uses only two threads where one thread is dedicated for communication so that it can be effectively overlapped with computations. Thus, depending on the number of processes used, CROFT achieves performance improvement of about 51% to 42% as compared to FFTW3 library.

Cloud applications are increasingly shifting from large monolithic services to complex graphs of loosely-coupled microservices. Despite the advantages of modularity and elasticity microservices offer, they also complicate cluster management and perfo
rmance debugging, as dependencies between tiers introduce backpressure and cascading QoS violations. We present Sage, a machine learning-driven root cause analysis system for interactive cloud microservices. Sage leverages unsupervised ML models to circumvent the overhead of trace labeling, captures the impact of dependencies between microservices to determine the root cause of unpredictable performance online, and applies corrective actions to recover a cloud services QoS. In experiments on both dedicated local clusters and large clusters on Google Compute Engine we show that Sage consistently achieves over 93% accuracy in correctly identifying the root cause of QoS violations, and improves performance predictability.
Performance and energy are the two most important objectives for optimisation on modern parallel platforms. Latest research demonstrated the importance of workload distribution as a decision variable in the bi-objective optimisation for performance a
nd energy on homogeneous multicore clusters. We show in this work that bi-objective optimisation for performance and energy on heterogeneous processors results in a large number of Pareto-optimal optimal solutions (workload distributions) even in the simple case of linear performance and energy profiles. We then study performance and energy profiles of real-life data-parallel applications and find that their shapes are non-linear, complex and non-smooth. We, therefore, propose an efficient and exact global optimisation algorithm, which takes as an input most general discrete performance and dynamic energy profiles of the heterogeneous processors and solves the bi-objective optimisation problem. The algorithm is also used as a building block to solve the bi-objective optimisation problem for performance and total energy. We also propose a novel methodology to build discrete dynamic energy profiles of individual computing devices, which are input to the algorithm. The methodology is based purely on system-level measurements and addresses the fundamental challenge of accurate component-level energy modelling of a hybrid data-parallel application running on a heterogeneous platform integrating CPUs and accelerators. We experimentally validate the proposed method using two data-parallel applications, matrix multiplication and 2D fast Fourier transform (2D-FFT).
The movement of large-scale (tens of Terabytes and larger) data sets between high performance computing (HPC) facilities is an important and increasingly critical capability. A growing number of scientific collaborations rely on HPC facilities for ta
sks which either require large-scale data sets as input or produce large-scale data sets as output. In order to enable the transfer of these data sets as needed by the scientific community, HPC facilities must design and deploy the appropriate data transfer capabilities to allow users to do data placement at scale. This paper describes the Petascale DTN Project, an effort undertaken by four HPC facilities, which succeeded in achieving routine data transfer rates of over 1PB/week between the facilities. We describe the design and configuration of the Data Transfer Node (DTN) clusters used for large-scale data transfers at these facilities, the software tools used, and the performance tuning that enabled this capability.
Bayesian optimization (BO) is a flexible and powerful framework that is suitable for computationally expensive simulation-based applications and guarantees statistical convergence to the global optimum. While remaining as one of the most popular opti
mization methods, its capability is hindered by the size of data, the dimensionality of the considered problem, and the nature of sequential optimization. These scalability issues are intertwined with each other and must be tackled simultaneously. In this work, we propose the Scalable$^3$-BO framework, which employs sparse GP as the underlying surrogate model to scope with Big Data and is equipped with a random embedding to efficiently optimize high-dimensional problems with low effective dimensionality. The Scalable$^3$-BO framework is further leveraged with asynchronous parallelization feature, which fully exploits the computational resource on HPC within a computational budget. As a result, the proposed Scalable$^3$-BO framework is scalable in three independent perspectives: with respect to data size, dimensionality, and computational resource on HPC. The goal of this work is to push the frontiers of BO beyond its well-known scalability issues and minimize the wall-clock waiting time for optimizing high-dimensional computationally expensive applications. We demonstrate the capability of Scalable$^3$-BO with 1 million data points, 10,000-dimensional problems, with 20 concurrent workers in an HPC environment.
In this paper we demonstrate the methodology for parallelizing the computation of large one-dimensional discrete fast Fourier transforms (DFFTs) on multi-core Intel Xeon processors. DFFTs based on the recursive Cooley-Tukey method have to control cac
he utilization, memory bandwidth and vector hardware usage, and at the same time scale across multiple threads or compute nodes. Our method builds on single-threaded Intel Math Kernel Library (MKL) implementation of DFFT, and uses the Intel Cilk Plus framework for thread parallelism. We demonstrate the ability of Intel Cilk Plus to handle parallel recursion with nested loop-centric parallelism without tuning the code to the number of cores or cache metrics. The result of our work is a library called EFFT that performs 1D DFTs of size 2^N for N>=21 faster than the corresponding Intel MKL parallel DFT implementation by up to 1.5x, and faster than FFTW by up to 2.5x. The code of EFFT is available for free download under the GPLv3 license. This work provides a new efficient DFFT implementation, and at the same time demonstrates an educational example of how computer science problems with complex parallel patterns can be optimized for high performance using the Intel Cilk Plus framework.
