TERATEC 2017 Forum
Workshop 8 - Wednesday, June 28 from 14:00 to 17:30
Numerical precision and stability in HPC simulation
A few challenges revisited at scale: communication/synchronization hidden, attainable accuracy and rubustness to soft errors in the conjugate gradient method
Abstract : In this talk we will address two key aspects required to get scalable numerical calculation:
1 - how the algorithmic design to reduce communication/synchronization should be accomodated with numerical remedies to ensure the final quality of the computed solution,
2 - the sensitivity of the numerical kernels to bit-flip in the data and the robustness of possible numerical criteria to detect those soft-errrors.
These various aspects will be illustrated on the conjugate gradient method, that is a numerical scheme widely useed in many large simulation codes.
