FY20 ASC IC L2 Milestone 7180: Performance Portability of SIERRA Mechanics Applications to ATS-1 and ATS-2. Executive Summary
The overall goal of this work was to accelerate simulations supporting the nuclear deterrence (ND) mission through improved performance of key algorithms in the ASC IC Sierra multi-physics application suite. This work focused on porting and optimizing algorithms for the graphics processing units (GPU) on the second ASC advanced technology system (ATS-2), while maintaining or improving performance on commodity technology systems (CTS) and ATS-1. Furthermore, these algorithmic developments used the ASC developed Kokkos performance portability abstraction library to maintain high performance across platforms using identical code, and enable sustainable reduced-cost migration and performance optimization to emerging hardware.
