  7. CQoS Performance and Metadata • Performance (general) • Historical performance data from different instances of the same application or related applications: • Obtained through source instrumentation, e.g., TAU (U. Oregon) • Binary instrumentation, e.g., HPCToolkit (Rice U.) • Ideally, for each application execution, the metadata should provide enough information to be able to reproduce a particular application instance. Examples: • Input data (reduced representations) • Matrix properties, condition number • Algorithmic parameters • Convergence tolerance, CFL number, maximum number of iterations • System parameters • Compilers, hardware • Domain-specific • Provided by scientist/algorithm developer

Database Component Application – Example 1: 2D Driven Cavity Flow1 • Linear solver: GMRES(30), vary only fill level of ILU preconditioner • Adaptive heuristic based on: • Matrix properties (which change during runtime) computed with Anamod (Eijkhout, http://sourceforge.net/projects/salsa/)

  10. How Database Components Work? • During runtime, the driver (e.g., linear solver proxy component) evaluates important matrix properties, and matches the properties to historical data in MetaDB through PropertyComparator interfaces. • Linear solver performance data is retrieved and compared given the current matrix properties. This is accomplished by the PerfComparator component. • The linear solver parameters resulting in the best performance, in this case fill level of ILU preconditioner, is returned back to the driver. • The driver adapts accordingly to continue execution.

  11. Example 2: Parallel Mesh Partitioning in Combustion Simulations1 • J. Ray et al. (Sandia) have developed a CCA toolkit for flame simulations using structured adaptive mesh partitioning (SAMR). No single partitioner is optimal; thus, CQoS support for choosing an efficient meta-partitioner and an appropriate configuration for a given mesh is desirable. • Meta-partitioner related information includes: • Algorithm (i.e. partitioner) settings • E.g., actual_levels, good_enough, smoothing, maxNRLoadImbalance • Problem (mesh) characterization • E.g., number of levels, amount of refined area per level • Performance metrics • E.g., synchronization cost statistics, data migration cost statistics 1J.

  13. Database Components for SAMR Partitioner

  14. How Database Components Work? • The CharacterizationComparator component matches current AMR grid characterization against historical data in MetaDB to find and extract the most similar previously encountered state • For the returned state, we choose an appropriate rule that matches the state to an optimal partitioner • How are the rules constructed? • The performance of various partitioners are compared for a given grid characterization • The performance comparison takes into account the offset among different metrics • A rule is created to map the grid state to a best-performed partitioner setting • These are accomplished through the PerformanceComparator and AlgorithmComparator components • The rule maps the current grid state to an optimal partitioner • The main driver adapts to the new partitioner to continue simulation.

  15. Ongoing and Future Work (Incomplete List) • Validate current algorithm/solver selection strategies with application experiments • Incorporate more offline performance analysis capabilities (machine learning, statistical analysis, etc.) • Introduce a lightweight runtime database to avoid overhead of accessing SQL databases (should only access database in the beginning and after the end of the main computation) • Apply to more problem domains, implementing extensions as necessary • Integration of ongoing efforts in • Performance tools: common interfaces and data representaion (leverage PERI tools, PerfExplorer, TAU performance interfaces, and other efforts) • Numerical components: emerging common interfaces (e.g., TOPS solver interfaces) increase choice of solution method  automated composition and adaptation strategies
