| Title | Ultra-fast computing pipeline for metagenome analysis on TSUBAME 2.0 |
| Abstract | Metagenome analysis is the study of the genomes of uncultured microbes obtained directly from microbial communities in their natural habitats. In metagenome analysis, sensitive sequence homology search processes are required because current databases do not include sequence data for most of microbes in the sample. This process needs large computation time and is thus a bottleneck in current metagenome analysis. We developed a fully automated pipeline for metagenome analysis that can deal with huge data obtained from a next generation sequencer in realistic time by using the large computing power of TSUBAME 2.0 supercomputer. In this pipeline, two different sequence homology search tools can be selected; 1) BLASTX, standard sequence homology search software used in many metagenomic researches. 2) GHOSTM, GPU-based fast sequence homology search software. GHOSTM is our original sequence homology search program. The program is implemented by using NVIDIA's CUDA and able to search homologues in a short time by using GPU-computing techniques. The program have much higher search sensitivity than BLAT, a well-known fast homology search program, and it is enough for metagenome analysis. We performed a large-scale metagenome analysis by using our pipeline for 71 million DNA reads data sampled from polluted soils and obtained by using a next-generation sequencer. As results, the pipeline shows almost linear speedup to the number of computing cores. When we use BLASTX as a homology search program, the pipeline achieves to process about 24 million reads per an hour with 16,008 CPU cores (1,334 computing nodes). When we use GHOSTM as a homology search program, the pipeline achieves to process about 60 million reads per an hour with 2,520 GPUs (840 computing nodes). These results indicate the pipeline can process genome information obtained from a single run of next generation sequencers in a few hours. We believe our pipeline will accelerate metagenome analysis with next generation sequencers. |

| Title | Petaflops scale turbulence simulation on TSUBAME 2.0 |
| Abstract | We perform the calculation of an isotropic turbulence on the TSUBAME 2.0 system. For this simulation, we compare an FFT based spectral method and an FMM based vortex method under the same conditions in an attempt to quantify the relative performance between FFT and FMM on large GPU systems. The current FMM achieved a sustained performance of 1.0 PFlops on 4096 GPUs. Weak scaling results showed 74 % parallel efficiency at 4096 GPUs for the FMM, and 14 % parallel efficiency for the FFT on 4096 CPUs. The number of particles/mesh points in the weak scaling test reached 64 billion for 4096 processes, which took approximately 100 seconds. The present FMM uses a hybrid approach that optimizes between, cell-cell, cell-particle, and particle-particle interactions, and achieves high performance on GPUs. The FMM is also extended to handle periodic boundary conditions by considering the effect of periodic images using multipoles. The MPI communication is overlapped with the GPU computation of the local cells and particles. |

| Title | 2-PFLOPS Performance of Dendritic Solidification Simulation on the TSUBAME 2.0 Supercomputer |
| Abstract | The mechanical properties of metal materials largely depend on their intrinsic internal microstructures. To develop engineering materials with the expected properties, predicting patterns in solidified metals would be indispensable. The phase-field simulation is the most powerful method known to simulate the micro-scale dendritic growth during solidification in a binary alloy. To evaluate the realistic description of solidification, however, phase-field simulation requires computing a large number of complex nonlinear terms over a fine-grained grid. Due to such heavy computational demand, previous work on simulating three-dimensional solidification with phase-field methods was successful only in describing simple shapes. Our new simulation techniques achieved scales unprecedentedly large, sufficient for handling complex dendritic structures required in material science. Our simulations on the GPU-rich TSUBAME 2.0 supercomputer at the Tokyo Institute of Technology have demonstrated good weak scaling and achieved 2.000 PFlops in single precision for our largest configuration, using 4,000 GPUs along with 16,000 CPU cores, which is the first peta-scale result as a real stencil application we know to date. |

| Title | How to Run Your CUDA Program Anywhere |
| Abstract | While many may resist the proprietary nature of CUDA and its need to run on NVIDIA GPUs, we present a tool that "enables your CUDA program to run anywhere." The tool, which we call CU2CL, short for a CUDA-to-OpenCL source-to-source translator, makes clever reuse of the Clang compiler framework to automatically translate CUDA source code into OpenCL source code. Currently, the CU2CL translator covers the primary constructs found in CUDA runtime API, and it has successfully translated many applications from the CUDA SDK and Rodinia benchmark suite. The performance of the automatically translated applications via CU2CL is on par with their manually ported counterparts. |

| Affiliation | 1. Associate Professor; Dept. of Computer Science, Dept. of Electrical & Computer Engineering, and Virginia Bioinformatics Institute, Virginia Tech; Blacksburg, VA 2. Site Co-Director; NSF Center for High-Performance Reconfigurable Computing at Virginia Tech; Blacksburg, VA |
| Biography | Dr. Feng is currently an Associate Professor of Computer Science and Electrical & Computer Engineering at Virginia Tech (VT), where he directs the Synergy Lab and serves as a VT site co-director for the National Science Foundation Center for High-Performance Reconfigurable Computing (CHREC). In addition, he is an adjunct faculty member at the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute at Virginia Tech and in the Dept. of Cancer Biology and Translational Science Institute at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine. Feng came to VT from Los Alamos National Laboratory, following previous professional stints at Ohio State University, Purdue University, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, EnergyWare, Orion Multisystems, Vosaic, IBM, T.J. Watson Research Center, and NASA Ames Research Center. Dr. Feng has published 200+ peer-reviewed technical publications in high-performance networking and computing, high-speed systems monitoring and measurement, low power and power-aware computing, computer science pedagogy for K-12, and bioinformatics.
Regarded as a visionary in green supercomputing, Feng first introduced the idea of "energy-efficient supercomputing" to the high-performance computing (HPC) community at SC 2001 and delivered Green Destiny, a 240-node cluster supercomputer in five square feet that consumed a mere 3.2 kilowatts of power (when booted diskless) in 2002. This cluster ultimately produced a Linpack rating of 101 Gflops, which would have placed it in the TOP500 List at the time. As a consequence, this green supercomputer achieved a level of distinction that led to international news coverage by the New York Times, CNN, the International Herald Tribune, PC World, Slashdot, and BBC News. Feng worked to establish a low-power supercomputing company, Orion Multisystems, and has been actively involved in architecting power-aware software that reduces energy consumption while maintaining performance as part of another start-up company called EnergyWare. He is also credited with developing the concept of The Green500 List in 2006, which officially made its debut during SC '07. Of more recent note is his work in high-performance GPU computing, both "in the small" (i.e., embedded devices) and "in the large" (i.e., the GPU-accelerated HokieSpeed supercomputer). His research in this space has delivered personal desktop supercomputing solutions to neuroscience, earthquake modeling, and bioinformatics. Dr. Feng holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, a M.S. in Computer Engineering and B.S. degrees in Electrical & Computer Engineering and Music from Penn State University. In addition to being a Distinguished Scientist of the ACM and Senior Member of the IEEE Computer Society, Dr. Feng has also been named to HPCwire's Top People to Watch twice, once in 2004 and again in 2011. |
| Title | Physis: An Implicitly Parallel Programming Model for Stencil Computations on Large-Scale GPU-Accelerated Supercomputers |
| Abstract | This paper proposes a compiler-based programming framework that automatically translates user-written structured grid code into scalable parallel implementation code for GPU-equipped clusters. To enable such automatic translations, we design a small set of declarative constructs that allow the user to express stencil computations in a portable and implicitly parallel manner. Our framework translates the user-written code into actual implementation code in CUDA for GPU acceleration and MPI for node-level parallelization with automatic optimizations such as computation and communication overlapping. We demonstrate the feasibility of such automatic translations by implementing several structured grid applications in our framework. Experimental results on the TSUBAME2.0 GPU-based supercomputer show that the performance is comparable as hand-written code and good strong and weak scalability up to 256 GPUs. |

| Title | Future Exascale HPC through ParalleX Execution Model |
| Abstract | While the world’s largest systems such as Tsubme-2 continue to achieve unprecedented capability in computing performance and data handling through expanded multicore and GPU structures, methods for using such systems and applying them to the extreme challenges of science, technology, and societal needs are failing to achieve user programmability or problem generality with as many as three layers of programming interfaces required to fully employ all levels of parallelism comprising modern heterogeneous systems. Extending the scale of system hardware by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude even as processor core performance remains approximately constant will only aggravate these challenges. This presentation will discuss an alternative methodology based on an emerging dynamic adaptive execution model, ParalleX, and recent research results derived through experiments with a proof-of-concept runtime system. A set of semantic constructs will be discussed to replace message-passing techniques and dramatically improve parallelism and scalability while enhancing node efficiency. |

| Title | A Holistic approach for Exascale resilience |
| Abstract | Resilience is one of the major issue to address for Exascale computing. The INRIA-Illinois joint laboratory on Petascale Computing is following a holistic approach to address this challenges, investigating and leveraging applications and system properties to design scalable resilience techniques. In this talk I will focus on 3 techniques: -Reducing the checkpoint overhead to 8% by using dedicated cores and local storage (a joint work with TiTech) -Reducing the overhead of fault tolerant protocols to ~1% with an hybrid fault tolerant protocol providing fault confinement and avoiding global restart -Predicting failures with a ~90% precision (~50% recall) and a ~1 minute (mean) ahead notification, i.e. giving enough time to complete proactive actions. These three techniques are among the set of mechanisms that we think need to be combined together to from a resilience approach for Exascale reducing the fault tolerance overhead to less than 10%. |

| Title | TSUBAME2.0 -- A Year Later, onto Exascale |
| Abstract | Tsubame2.0 came into being in Nov. 1, 2011, and has been running in full production since then with very little interruption. Among the challenges had been attaining stability in the machine, extracting maximum performance out of thousands of GPUs, and devising a scheduling model for 2,000 users of mixed variety. One of the biggest challenges had been to deal with substantial electricity shortage after the Fukushima disaster, resulting in a national mandate for peak power conservation which Tsubame2 met graciously without substantially sacrificing user experience with the machine. The accolade with TSUBAME2.0 has been the bulk of application and system research results that have been achieved, including the two Gordon Bell prize finalist for SC11. Such experiences are valuable stepping stones as we strive to achieve exascale in the coming years. |

| Abstract | Graph500 is a new benchmark that ranks supercomputers by executing a large-scale graph search problem. Our early study reveals that the provided reference implementations are not scalable in a large-scale distributed environment. In this talk we introduce our optimized method based on 2D based partitioning and other various optimization methods such as communication compression and vertex sorting. Our optimized implementation can solve BFS (Breadth First Search) of large-scale graph with 236 (68.7 billion) vertices and 240 (1.1 trillion) edges for 16.97 seconds with 512 nodes and 12288 CPU cores. This record corresponds to 64.8 GE/s, which is the top-ranked score as of this writing. We also demonstrate thorough study of performance characteristics of our optimized implementation and reference implementations in a large-scale distributed memory supercomputer with the Fat-Tree based Infiniband network. |
