Although the highly anticipated petascale computers of the near
future will perform at an order of magnitude faster than today's
quickest supercomputer, the scaling up of algorithms and
applications for this class of computers remains a tough challenge.
From scalable algorithm design for massive concurrency
toperformance analyses and scientific visualization, Petascale
Computing:Algorithms and Applications captures the state of the art
in high-performance computing algorithms and applications.
Featuring contributions from the world's leading experts in
computational science, this edited collection explores the use of
petascale computers for solving the most difficult scientific and
engineering problems of the current century. Covering a wide range
of important topics, the book illustrates how petascale computing
can be applied to space and Earth science missions, biological
systems, weather prediction, climate science, disasters, black
holes, and gamma ray bursts. It details the simulation of
multiphysics, cosmological evolution, molecular dynamics, and
biomolecules. The book also discusses computational aspects that
include the Uintah framework, Enzo code, multithreaded algorithms,
petaflops, performance analysis tools, multilevel finite element
solvers, finite element code development, Charm++, and the Cactus
framework. Supplying petascale tools, programming methodologies,
and an eight-page color insert, this volume addresses the
challenging problems of developing application codes that can take
advantage of the architectural features of the new petascale
systems in advance of their first deployment.
