Abstract

We describe the Uintah Computational Framework (UCF), a set of software components and libraries that facilitate the simulation of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) on Structured AMR (SAMR) grids using hundreds to thousands of processors. The UCF uses a non-traditional approach to achieving parallelism, employing an abstract taskgraph representation to describe computation and communication. This representation has a number of advantages that affect the performance of the resulting simulation. We demonstrate performance of the system on a solid mechanics algorithm, two different Computational Fluid-Dynamics (CFD) algorithms, and coupled CFD/solids algorithms. We illustrate the performance of the UCF for jobs requiring up to 2000 processors. © Springer-Verlag 2002.
