Coupling-Aware Graph Partitioning Algorithms: Preliminary Study
Résumé
In the field of scientific computing, load balancing is a major issue that determines the performance of parallel applications. Nowadays, simulations of real-life problems are becoming more and more complex, involving numerous coupled codes, representing different models. In this context, reaching high performance can be a great challenge. In this paper, we present graph partitioning techniques, called co-partitioning, that address the problem of load balancing for two coupled codes: the key idea is to perform a "coupling-aware" partitioning, instead of partitioning these codes independently, as it is usually done. Finally, we present a preliminary experimental study which compares our methods against the usual approach.
