Who  are  we  and  what  do  we  do?     Weather  Forecasts Medium-­‐Range

 We  produce   global  weather  forecasts    Up  to  15  days  ahead.   Our  products  also  include   monthly  and  seasonal  forecasts   and  we  collect  and  store   meteorological  data.  

  What  do  we  have  to  achieve  this?   People  About  260  staff,   specialists  and  contractors   Equipment  State-­‐of-­‐the-­‐art  supercomputers   and  data  handling  systems   Budget  £50  million  per  year

13/05/15

36

HPC  Plaiorm  Restric0ons   •  POSIX     •  Only  supported  languages:   –  Fortran –  C99 –  Recently C++ (but not C++11) –  Shell (Ksh) + Perl (but not Python)

•  Most  of  our  scien0sts  know   –  Fortran –  Python (maybe) –  Basic shell scripting 13/05/15

37

C++  Support  on  HPC   •  Support  for  C++  in  HPC  plaiorms  is  …  patchy!   •  Some  HPC  compilers  aren’t  fully  C++98  and   choke  on  heavily  template  code:   –  Eigen  library  for  linear  algebra   –  Parts  of  Boost   •  serializa0on   •  Proto  

•  Not  to  men0on  C++11!   Change  on  the  way?   Community  &  Vendors  start  talking  about  C++   13/05/15

38

Scien0sts  are  reluctant  to  use  C++   Possible  explana0ons  (my  view):   •  Fortran  is  what  they  know   •  Fortran  is  very  fast  for  numeric  computa0ons   •  C++  was  (ini0ally)  perceived  as  slow:   –  hidden constructors –  misuse of classes –  restrict keyword Mostly corrected now (e.g. work of T. Veldhuizen)

•  But  C++  is  s0ll  perceived  as  …   –  complex (templates are a common complaint) –  less portable (than C or Fortran) 13/05/15

Big  Data  Challenge   “Big  Data  is  high  volume,  high  velocity,  and/or  high   variety  informa0on  assets  that  require  new  forms   of  processing  to  enable  enhanced  decision  making,   insight  discovery  and  process  op0miza0on.”       “3D  Data  Management:  Controlling  Data  Volume,  Velocity  and  Variety”,  D.  Laney,  Gartner,  2001

Nothing  of  this  is  new   We  have  always  dealt  with  Big  Data…   What  changed?  

46

CPU  Power  Growth   “The  Free  Lunch  is  Over”.  H.  SuRer,  Dr.  Dobb's  Journal,  30(3),  March  2005  

But  what  about  “real”  performance?   47

CPU  Performance  Growth  (single-­‐threaded)   “A  Look  Back  at  Single-­‐Threaded  CPU  Performance”,  J.  Pershing  Feb  2012  

More  registers,  vector  units,  branch  predic0on  …       but  also  harder  to  achieve!     Deeper  memory  hierarchy,  out-­‐of-­‐order  execu:on  …     48

Storage  Density  Growth   Mul0ple  Technologies   “Tape  based  magne2c  recording:  technology  landscape  comparisons  with  hard  disk  drive  and  flash  roadmaps”,     R.  Fontana  et  al,  IBM  Research  Division,  2011  

49

HDD  Storage  Growth   “GPFS  Scans  10  Billion  Files  in  43  minutes”.  R.  Freitas,  et  al.  IBM  Research  Division,  2011  

Volume  is  linearly  propor0onal  to  area  density   …  but  transac0on  rate  hasn’t  kept  up!   Recently  follows  25-­‐40%  CAGR…   This  means  that  we  may  have  the  capacity,  but  maybe  not  the  bandwidth  …   50

What  does  it  imply?   •  “No  Free  Lunch”  è  Improve  our  sonware   –  NWP models have been parallel and concurrent for many decades

  •  Op0mize  Data  Movement   •  Develop  new    Algorithms  that  explore…   –  (More)  Concurrent  computa0ons     –  Data  locality     –  Computa0onal  intensity  (CPU  usage/MB  transferred)   •  Sonware  must  cope  with  changes  –  Flexibility   –  Best  use  of  new  hardware   –  Unknown  future  for  parallel  plaiorms
