High-Performance Big Data Analytics (HPDA) applications are characterized by huge volumes of distributed and heterogeneous data that require efficient computation for knowledge extraction and decision making. Designers are moving towards a tight integration of computing systems combining HPC, Cloud, and IoT solutions with artificial intelligence (AI). Matching the application and data requirements with the characteristics of the underlying hardware is a key element to improve the predictions thanks to high performance and better use of resources. We present EVEREST, a novel H2020 project started on October 1st, 2020 that aims at developing a holistic environment for the co-design of HPDA applications on heterogeneous, distributed, and secure platforms. EVEREST focuses on programmability issues through a data-driven design approach, the use of hardware-accelerated AI, and an efficient runtime monitoring with virtualization support. In the different stages, EVEREST combines state-of-the-art programming models, emerging communication standards, and novel domain-specific extensions. We describe the EVEREST approach and the use cases that drive our research.

Traditional heterogeneous parallel algorithms, designed for heterogeneous clusters of workstations, are based on the assumption that the absolute speed of the processors does not depend on the size of the computational task. This assumption proved in accurate for modern and perspective highly heterogeneous HPC platforms. New class of algorithms based on the functional performance model (FPM), representing the speed of the processor by a function of problem size, has been recently proposed. These algorithms cannot be however employed in self-adaptable applications because of very high cost of construction of the functional performance model. The paper presents a new class of parallel algorithms for highly heterogeneous HPC platforms. Like traditional FPM-based algorithms, these algorithms assume that the speed of the processors is characterized by speed functions rather than speed constants. Unlike the traditional algorithms, they do not assume the speed functions to be given. Instead, they estimate the speed functions of the processors for different problem sizes during their execution. These algorithms do not construct the full speed function for each processor but rather build and use their partial estimates sufficient for optimal distribution of computations with a given accuracy. The low execution cost of distribution of computations between heterogeneous processors in these algorithms make them suitable for employment in self-adaptable applications. Experiments with parallel matrix multiplication applications based on this approach are performed on local and global heterogeneous computational clusters. The results show that the execution time of optimal matrix distribution between processors is significantly less, by orders of magnitude, than the total execution time of the optimized application.
Hardware-aware design and optimization is crucial in exploiting emerging architectures for PDE-based computational fluid dynamics applications. In this work, we study optimizations aimed at acceleration of OpenFOAM-based applications on emerging hybr id heterogeneous platforms. OpenFOAM uses MPI to provide parallel multi-processor functionality, which scales well on homogeneous systems but does not fully utilize the potential per-node performance on hybrid heterogeneous platforms. In our study, we use two OpenFOAM applications, icoFoam and laplacianFoam, both based on Krylov iterative methods. We propose a number of optimizations of the dominant kernel of the Krylov solver, aimed at acceleration of the overall execution of the applications on modern GPU-accelerated heterogeneous platforms. Experimental results show that the proposed hybrid implementation significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art implementation.
This paper introduces H-STREAM, a big stream/data processing pipelines evaluation engine that proposes stream processing operators as micro-services to support the analysis and visualisation of Big Data streams stemming from IoT (Internet of Things) environments. H-STREAM micro-services combine stream processing and data storage techniques tuned depending on the number of things producing streams, the pace at which they produce them, and the physical computing resources available for processing them online and delivering them to consumers. H-STREAM delivers stream processing and visualisation micro-services installed in a cloud environment. Micro-services can be composed for implementing specific stream aggregation analysis pipelines as queries. The paper presents an experimental validation using Microsoft Azure as a deployment environment for testing the capacity of H-STREAM for dealing with velocity and volume challenges in an (i) a neuroscience experiment and (in) a social connectivity analysis scenario running on IoT farms.
This work is based on the seminar titled ``Resiliency in Numerical Algorithm Design for Extreme Scale Simulations held March 1-6, 2020 at Schloss Dagstuhl, that was attended by all the authors. Nai
With the emergence of the big data age, the issue of how to obtain valuable knowledge from a dataset efficiently and accurately has attracted increasingly attention from both academia and industry. This paper presents a Parallel Random Forest (PRF) a lgorithm for big data on the Apache Spark platform. The PRF algorithm is optimized based on a hybrid approach combining data-parallel and task-parallel optimization. From the perspective of data-parallel optimization, a vertical data-partitioning method is performed to reduce the data communication cost effectively, and a data-multiplexing method is performed is performed to allow the training dataset to be reused and diminish the volume of data. From the perspective of task-parallel optimization, a dual parallel approach is carried out in the training process of RF, and a task Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is created according to the parallel training process of PRF and the dependence of the Resilient Distributed Datasets (RDD) objects. Then, different task schedulers are invoked for the tasks in the DAG. Moreover, to improve the algorithms accuracy for large, high-dimensional, and noisy data, we perform a dimension-reduction approach in the training process and a weighted voting approach in the prediction process prior to parallelization. Extensive experimental results indicate the superiority and notable advantages of the PRF algorithm over the relevant algorithms implemented by Spark MLlib and other studies in terms of the classification accuracy, performance, and scalability.
