26、芯片是不行的，必須要有加速器；2。同構(gòu)眾核芯片又會遇到功耗問題，每個核都要有它Cache等配合硬件；因此，加速器要用較大量的“小核”；3。如果CPU和GPU芯片合用，因為GPU要求大量數(shù)據(jù)，所以在芯片之間傳送大量數(shù)據(jù)，是瓶頸，很難達到峰值；4。因此，CPU和GPU應(yīng)該做在一個芯片上，芯片上的數(shù)據(jù)傳輸頻帶要寬很多；更進一步，GPU仍然有編程困難的問題，如有針對專門用途的、算法和編程都比較能簡化的小核，更為合適。另一個辦法是在眾核中擴充指令、實現(xiàn)加速。5。高性能計算機有分向的趨勢，一般通用HPC用現(xiàn)有的刀片式服務(wù)器、再加上Infiniband就可以很快造成，價廉、研制速度快；而自己專門設(shè)計板級產(chǎn)品

27、的、幾個PetaFlops的 HPC一般都只能針對一、二種應(yīng)用，有專用化的趨勢。37Enabled by: Moores Law Voltage ScalingSingle-Core EraMulti-CoreEraHeterogeneousSystems EraEnabled by: Moores Law Desire For Throughput20 years of SMP archPowerParallel SW availabilityPerformance ScalabilityMicro-Architecture受限于： Power Complexity受限于： Enabled

30、機并非理想GPU對于高性能計算的編程不適當(dāng)，解決辦法是把CPU和GPU結(jié)合。 Jack Dongarra說：“The obvious upside of GPUs is that they provide compelling performance for modest prices. The downside is that they are more difficult to program, since at the very least you will need to write one program for the CPUs and another program for th

31、e GPUs. Another problem that GPUs present pertains to the movement of data. Any machine that requires a lot of data movement will never come close to achieving its peak performance. The CPU-GPU link is a thin pipe, and that becomes the strangle-point for the effective use of GPUs. In the future this

32、 problem will be addressed by having the CPU and GPU integrated in a single socket。”42Cell處理機對于高性能計算機已經(jīng)死亡Cell is Dead for HPCChips that contain both x86 general processing cores as well as graphics processing cores are essentially heterogeneous multi-core processors, which AMD calls Fusion. The vast

33、 majority of multi-core chips today are homogenous chips that contain a number of similar processing engines. There are processors with different types of cores the Cell chips jointly developed by IBM, Sony Corp. and Toshiba Corp. which originally promised to redefine the market of multimedia chips

34、as well as CPUs for HPC market. However, since all three companies cease to develop Cell, it has no future.Jack Dongarra 說：“The Cell architecture is no longer being developed, so it is effectively dead.

50、erarchical, based on registers, L1 and L2 caches, local memory, shared memory, and distributed memory among nodes. That is a potential model for exaFLOPS systems. However, we want exaFLOPS systems to be designed to be relatively easy to program. We therefore want a globally shared address space（全局地址

51、空間）, and explicit methods to pass data between the processors in order to orchestrate the unfolding computation. That paradigm may be necessary for a machine that has a billion threads（百萬線程）” 71預(yù)計的兩種exaFLOPS HPC途徑“There are two models that we can use to get to an exaflop while staying within a 20meg

52、aW budget. The first model employs huge numbers of lightweight processors, such as IBM Blue Gene Processor running at 1.0GHz. If we use 1 million chips, and each chip has 1000 cores, then we can get to a potential billion threads of execution. The other approach is a hybrid that makes extensive use

53、of coprocessors or GPUs. It would use a 1.0GHz processor and 10 000 floating point units per socket, and 100 000 sockets per system,” 72IBM MIRA 1萬萬億次超級計算機scientists will have to scale their current computer codes tomore than 750,000 individual computing cores, providing them preliminary experience

54、on how scalability might be achieved on an exascale-class system with 100s of millions of cores. Despite a popular trend to use both central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPU), the Mira will be based only on IBMs PowerPC chips.The IBM BlueGene/Q supercomputer design is based

55、 on sixteen-core IBM PowerPC A2 chip with 4-way simultaneous multi-threading technology. Each processor has at least 1GB of DDR3 memory. Featuring 750 thousand processing cores, the new supercomputer will be cooled-down using a special water-cooling system.IBM Blue/Gene Q-US Department of Energys (D
