    Prevailing Dust-transport Directions on Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko (2015)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-03-19
    Description: Dust transport and deposition behind larger boulders on the comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko (67P/C–G) have been observed by the Rosetta mission. We present a mechanism for dust-transport vectors based on a homogeneous surface activity model incorporating in detail the topography of 67P/C–G. The combination of gravitation, gas drag, and Coriolis force leads to specific dust transfer pathways, which for higher dust velocities fuel the near-nucleus coma. By distributing dust sources homogeneously across the whole cometary surface, we derive a global dust-transport map of 67P/C–G. The transport vectors are in agreement with the reported wind-tail directions in the Philae descent area.

    On the origin of inner coma structures observed by Rosetta during a diurnal rotation of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (2016)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-03-19
    Description: The Rosetta probe around comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko (67P) reveals an anisotropic dust distribution of the inner coma with jet-like structures. The physical processes leading to jet formation are under debate, with most models for cometary activity focusing on localized emission sources, such as cliffs or terraced regions. Here we suggest, by correlating high-resolution simulations of the dust environment around 67P with observations, that the anisotropy and the background dust density of 67P originate from dust released across the entire sunlit surface of the nucleus rather than from few isolated sources. We trace back trajectories from coma regions with high local dust density in space to the non-spherical nucleus and identify two mechanisms of jet formation: areas with local concavity in either two dimensions or only one. Pits and craters are examples of the first case; the neck region of the bi-lobed nucleus of 67P is an example of the latter case. The conjunction of multiple sources, in addition to dust released from all other sunlit areas, results in a high correlation coefficient (~0.8) of the predictions with observations during a complete diurnal rotation period of 67P.

    DM-HEOM: A Portable and Scalable Solver-Framework for the Hierarchical Equations of Motion (2018)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-03-19
    Description: Computing the Hierarchical Equations of Motion (HEOM) is by itself a challenging problem, and so is writing portable production code that runs efficiently on a variety of architectures while scaling from PCs to supercomputers. We combined both challenges to push the boundaries of simulating quantum systems, and to evaluate and improve methodologies for scientific software engineering. Our contributions are threefold: We present the first distributed memory implementation of the HEOM method (DM-HEOM), we describe an interdisciplinary development workflow, and we provide guidelines and experiences for designing distributed, performance-portable HPC applications with MPI-3, OpenCL and other state-of-the-art programming models. We evaluated the resulting code on multi- and many-core CPUs as well as GPUs, and demonstrate scalability on a Cray XC40 supercomputer for the PS I molecular light harvesting complex.

    Efficient calculation of open quantum system dynamics and time-resolved spectroscopy with Distributed Memory HEOM (DM-HEOM) (2018)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-08-04
    Description: Time- and frequency resolved optical signals provide insights into the properties of light harvesting molecular complexes, including excitation energies, dipole strengths and orientations, as well as in the exciton energy flow through the complex. The hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) provide a unifying theory, which allows one to study the combined effects of system-environment dissipation and non-Markovian memory without making restrictive assumptions about weak or strong couplings or separability of vibrational and electronic degrees of freedom. With increasing system size the exact solution of the open quantum system dynamics requires memory and compute resources beyond a single compute node. To overcome this barrier, we developed a scalable variant of HEOM. Our distributed memory HEOM, DM-HEOM, is a universal tool for open quantum system dynamics. It is used to accurately compute all experimentally accessible time- and frequency resolved processes in light harvesting molecular complexes with arbitrary system-environment couplings for a wide range of temperatures and complex sizes.

    Performance Evaluation and Improvements of the PoCL Open-Source OpenCL Implementation on Intel CPUs (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-11
    Description: The Portable Computing Language (PoCL) is a vendor independent open-source OpenCL implementation that aims to support a variety of compute devices in a single platform. Evaluating PoCL versus the Intel OpenCL implementation reveals significant performance drawbacks of PoCL on Intel CPUs – which run 92 % of the TOP500 list. Using a selection of benchmarks, we identify and analyse performance issues in PoCL with a focus on scheduling and vectorisation. We propose a new CPU device-driver based on Intel Threading Building Blocks (TBB), and evaluate LLVM with respect to automatic compiler vectorisation across work-items in PoCL. Using the TBB driver, it is possible to narrow the gap to Intel OpenCL and even outperform it by a factor of up to 1.3× in our proxy application benchmark with a manual vectorisation strategy.

    Energy flow in the Photosystem I supercomplex: comparison of approximative theories with DM-HEOM (2018)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-08-04
    Description: We analyze the exciton dynamics in PhotosystemI from Thermosynechococcus elongatus using the distributed memory implementation of the hierarchical equation of motion (DM-HEOM) for the 96 Chlorophylls in the monomeric unit. The exciton-system parameters are taken from a first principles calculation. A comparison of the exact results with Foerster rates and Markovian approximations allows one to validate the exciton transfer times within the complex and to identify deviations from approximative theories. We show the optical absorption, linear, and circular dichroism spectra obtained with DM-HEOM and compare them to experimental results.

    Heterogeneous Active Messages for Offloading on the NEC SX-Aurora TSUBASA (2019)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-03-19
    Description: The NEC SX-Aurora TSUBASA is a new generation of vector processing architectures that combines a standard Intel Xeon host with the newly developed NEC Vector Engine co-processor cards. One way to use these co-processors is offloading suitable parts of the program from the host to the Vector Engines. Currently, the only vendor-provided offloading solutions are the low-level Vector Engine Offloading (VEO) library, and a builtin reverse-offloading mechanism named VHcall. In this work, we extend the portable Heterogeneous Active Messages (HAM) based HAM-Offload framework with support for the NEC SX-Aurora TSUBASA. Therefore, we design, implement, and evaluate two messaging protocols aimed at minimising offloading cost. This sheds some light on how to achieve fast communication between host CPU and the Vector Engines of the NEC SX-Aurora TSUBASA. Compared with VEO, the DMA-based protocol reduces offloading overhead by a factor of 13×. The resulting framework enables users to write portable offload applications with low overhead, that do neither require a language extension like OpenMP, nor a special language like OpenCL. Existing HAM-Offload applications are now ready to run on the NEC SX-Aurora TSUBASA.

    OpenCL in Scientific High Performance Computing: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (2017)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-03-19
    Description: For writing a new scientific application, portability across existing and future hardware should be the major design goal, as there is a multitude of different compute devices, and programme codes typically outlive systems by far. Unlike other programming models that address parallelism or heterogeneity, OpenCL does provide practical portability across a wide range of HPC-relevant architectures. Other than that, it has a range of further advantages like being a library-only implementation, and using runtime kernel-compilation. We present experiences with utilising OpenCL alongside C++, MPI, and CMake in two real-world scientific codes. Our targets are a Cray XC40 supercomputer with multi- and many-core (Xeon Phi) CPUs, as well as multiple smaller systems with Nvidia and AMD GPUs. We shed light on practical issues arising in such a scenario, like the interaction between OpenCL and MPI, discuss solutions, and point out current limitations of OpenCL in the domain of scientific HPC from an application developer's and user's point of view.
