Abstract

Scientific computation faces multiple scalability challenges in trying to take advantage of the latest generation compute, network and graphics hardware. We present a comprehensive approach to solving four important scalability challenges: programming productivity, scalability to large numbers of processors, I/O bandwidth, and interactive visualization of large data. We describe a scenario where our integrated system is applied in the field of numerical relativity. A solver for the governing Einstein equations is generated and executed on a large computational cluster; the simulation output is distributed onto a distributed data server, and finally visualized using distributed visualization methods and high-speed networks. A demonstration of this system was awarded first place in the IEEE SCALE 2009 Challenge.
