Abstract:
Making the best use of modern computational resources for data-intensive distributed applications requires expert knowledge of system architecture and low-level programming tools, or a productive high-level and high-performance programming framework. Even though the state-of-the-art high-level frameworks eases the programming burden, their performance are far from being optimal for many data-intensive applications. In this talk, we will present the lessons we learned developing such data-intensive applications on current hierarchical and hybrid architectures, and discuss the interplay of architecture, runtime system, algorithm, and application characteristics for developing high-performance applications.
