Parallelization Vector Classes Library for SIMD Instructions • SSE, …, SSE4_1, LRBni • Load and store • Gather and scatter • sfloat_v for float and short • Arithmetic and comparison • Math functions • Masks • Masked operations Very fast track fitting algorithm is essential for the feasibility of the open charm event selection • Horizontal operations • Constants • Type-safety • Up to 109 tracks/s in the Silicon Tracker • Develop the algorithm, which exploits the full potentialof modern processors 3 dimensions of parallelism SIMDparallelization (Data level parallelism) Parallelization between cores (Task level parallelism) Vc arithmetic Vc math operations - Vector Classes, (http://gitorious.org/vc). Quality and Timing Many-Core Scalability Residuals – errors: and pulls – normalized residuals: core 1 core 2 core 3 Intel Threading Building Blocks (TBB) software has been used for parallelization between cores on 8 cores computer SIMD KF track fit scalability on 8 cores computer Speed up of factor 8.5 has been obtained Strong many-core scalability for large groups of tracks - Intel Threading Building Blocks, (http://www.threadingbuildingblocks.org).
