Abstract:
Combined MPI+threads parallel algorithms are developed to approximate the
solutions of the nonstationary heat conductivity equation with phase transition
by the analytical block method. The block method is based on the approximation
of the solution to a boundary value problem by the special functions that are the
fundamental solutions of the Helmholtz equation. As a result, there appear block
systems of linear algebraic equations with block sparse structures and dense
submatrices. Intensive computations with dense submatrices are parallelized on
the basis of threads with the use of shared memory. Relatively independent
computations with block sparse structures are parallelized on distributed memory
with the aid of MPI. Such a combined approach to the organization of parallel
computing allows one to efficiently use the heterogeneous memory structure in
the modern cluster systems.
Keywords:
analytical methods; approximation; parallel computing; iterative methods; distributed and shared memory.
