Title: High performance computing for flood simulation using Telemac based on hybrid MPI/OpenMP parallel programming
Abstract: Usually simulations on environment flood issues will face the scalability problem of large scale parallel computing. The plain parallel technique based on pure MPI is difficult to have a good scalability due to the large number of domain partitioning. Therefore, the hybrid programming using MPI and OpenMP is introduced to deal with the issue of scalability. This kind of parallel technique can give a full play to the strengths of MPI and OpenMP. During the parallel computing, OpenMP is employed by its efficient fine grain parallel computing and MPI is used to perform the coarse grain parallel domain partitioning for data communications. Through the tests, the hybrid MPI/OpenMP parallel programming was used to renovate the finite element solvers in the BIEF library of Telemac. It was found that the hybrid programming is able to provide helps for Telemac to deal with the scalability issue.
