The paper shows the implementation of a 3D simulation code for turbulent flow and combustion processes in full-scale utility boilers on an Intel Paragon XP/S computer. For the portable parallelization, an explicit approach is chosen using a domain decomposition method for the static subdivision of t
The communication performance of the Intel iPSC/860, Paragon XP/S and the Meiko CS-2 are compared using the COMMS1 benchmark from the Genesis Parallel Benchmark Suite. The challenge to distributed-memory massively-parallel processors presented by the Cray-C90 shared memory computer is highlighted by
This paper makes the following contributions: It proposes a new methodology for quantifying remote memory access contention on hardware DSM multiprocessors. The most valuable aspect of this methodology is that it assesses the overhead of contention on real parallel programs running on real hardware.
