RECIPE (REliable power and time-ConstraInts-aware Predictive management of heterogeneous Exascale systems) is a recently started project funded within the H2020 FETHPC programme, which is expressly targeted at exploring new High-Performance Computing (HPC) technologies. RECIPE aims at introducing a hierarchical runtime resource management infrastructure to optimize energy efficiency and minimize the occurrence of thermal hotspots, while enforcing the time constraints imposed by the applications and ensuring reliability for both time-critical and throughput-oriented computation that run on deeply heterogeneous accelerator-based systems. This paper presents a detailed overview of RECIPE, identifying the fundamental challenges as well as the key innovations addressed by the project. In particular, the need for predictive reliability approaches to maximize hardware lifetime and guarantee application performance is identified as the key concern for RECIPE, and is addressed via hierarchical resource management of the heterogeneous architectural components of the system, driven by estimates of the application latency and hardware reliability obtained respectively through timing analysis and modelling thermal properties, mean-time-to-failure of subsystems. We show the impact of prediction accuracy on the overheads imposed by the checkpointing policy, as well as a possible application to a weather forecasting use case.

While many of the architectural details of future exascale-class high performance computer systems are still a matter of intense research, there appears to be a general consensus that they will be strongly heterogeneous, featuring standard as well as
accelerated resources. Today, such resources are available as multicore processors, graphics processing units (GPUs), and other accelerators such as the Intel Xeon Phi. Any software infrastructure that claims usefulness for such environments must be able to meet their inherent challenges: massive multi-level parallelism, topology, asynchronicity, and abstraction. The General, Hybrid, and Optimized Sparse Toolkit (GHOST) is a collection of building blocks that targets algorithms dealing with sparse matrix representations on current and future large-scale systems. It implements the MPI+X paradigm, has a pure C interface, and provides hybrid-parallel numerical kernels, intelligent resource management, and truly heterogeneous parallelism for multicore CPUs, Nvidia GPUs, and the Intel Xeon Phi. We describe the details of its design with respect to the challenges posed by modern heterogeneous supercomputers and recent algorithmic developments. Implementation details which are indispensable for achieving high efficiency are pointed out and their necessity is justified by performance measurements or predictions based on performance models. The library code and several applications are available as open source. We also provide instructions on how to make use of GHOST in existing software packages, together with a case study which demonstrates the applicability and performance of GHOST as a component within a larger software stack.
In this paper we would like to share our experience for transforming a parallel code for a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) problem into a parallel version for the RedisDG workflow engine. This system is able to capture heterogeneous and highly dyn
amic environments, thanks to opportunistic scheduling strategies. We show how to move to the field of HPC as a Service in order to use heterogeneous platforms. We mainly explain, through the CFD use case, how to transform the parallel code and we exhibit challenges to unfold the task graph dynamically in order to improve the overall performance (in a broad sense) of the workflow engine. We discuss in particular of the impact on the workflow engine of such dynamic feature. This paper states that new models for High Performance Computing are possible, under the condition we revisit our mind in the direction of the potential of new paradigms such as cloud, edge computing.
Heterogeneous systems have become one of the most common architectures today, thanks to their excellent performance and energy consumption. However, due to their heterogeneity they are very complex to program and even more to achieve performance port
ability on different devices. This paper presents EngineCL, a new OpenCL-based runtime system that outstandingly simplifies the co-execution of a single massive data-parallel kernel on all the devices of a heterogeneous system. It performs a set of low level tasks regarding the management of devices, their disjoint memory spaces and scheduling the workload between the system devices while providing a layered API. EngineCL has been validated in two compute nodes (HPC and commodity system), that combine six devices with different architectures. Experimental results show that it has excellent usability compared with OpenCL; a maximum 2.8% of overhead compared to the native version under loads of less than a second of execution and a tendency towards zero for longer execution times; and it can reach an average efficiency of 0.89 when balancing the load.

In the past decade, high performance compute capabilities exhibited by heterogeneous GPGPU platforms have led to the popularity of data parallel programming languages such as CUDA and OpenCL. Such languages, however, involve a steep learning curve as
well as developing an extensive understanding of the underlying architecture of the compute devices in heterogeneous platforms. This has led to the emergence of several High Performance Computing frameworks which provide high-level abstractions for easing the development of data-parallel applications on heterogeneous platforms. However, the scheduling decisions undertaken by such frameworks only exploit coarse-grained concurrency in data parallel applications. In this paper, we propose PySchedCL, a framework which explores fine-grained concurrency aware scheduling decisions that harness the power of heterogeneous CPU/GPU architectures efficiently. %, a feature which is not provided by existing HPC frameworks. We showcase the efficacy of such scheduling mechanisms over existing coarse-grained dynamic scheduling schemes by conducting extensive experimental evaluations for a Machine Learning based inferencing application.
