The Assembly and Management of Scalable Computational Experiments

A large-scale, collaborative computational experiment involves more than the tuning of individual code fragments- typically, codes must be assembled, integrated in one or more programming models and languages, experimental runs must be managed and data collected.  In this talk, I will present my work using the Swift programming language to assemble and run many different scientific applications on wide range of computer systems.  In high-performance computing, I will present the Swift/T system for high performance dataflow applications that run on extremely large systems such as the IBM Blue Gene/P and the Cray Blue Waters system.  The techniques presented will cover runtime and compiler development in the Swift context, management of big data for large scale computational experiments, and a variety of application case studies.

Information: Lunch will be provided

This talk will be broadcast to the University of Chicago, Searle 240A, 5735 S. Ellis Ave.  You may join the broadcast from your location by using Adobe Connect.
