RAHTM: Routing Algorithm Aware Hierarchical Task Mapping
SESSION: Networks
EVENT TYPE: Papers
TIME: 3:30PM - 4:00PM

ABSTRACT:
The mapping of MPI processes to compute nodes in a supercomputer has a
first-order impact on communication performance. For high-performance
computing (HPC) applications with stable communication, rich offline
analysis of such communication can improve the communication
performance by optimizing the mapping. Unfortunately, current
practices for at-scale HPC consider only the communication graph and
network topology in solving this problem.
We propose Routing-aware Hierarchical Task Mapping (RAHTM) which
leverages routing algorithm awareness to improve task mapping. RAHTM
achieves high-quality mappings by combining (1) a divide-and-conquer
strategy to achieve scalability, (2) a limited search of mappings,
and (3) a linear programming based routing-aware approach to
evaluate possible mappings in the search space.
RAHTM achieves 20% reduction in
communication time and a 9% reduction in overall execution time, for
three communication-heavy benchmarks scaled up to 16K processes on a
Blue Gene/Q platform.
