摘要
En 中文
Codes written in a naive way seldom effectively exploit the computing resources, while writing optimized codes is usually a complex task that requires certain levels of expertise. This problem is further increased in the presence of heterogeneous devices, which present more tunable parameters than regular CPUs and high sensitivity to the optimization decisions taken. Furthermore, portability is an added concern given the wide variety of accelerators available. This paper tackles this problem adding an automatic optimizer to a library that already provides an easy and portable way to program heterogeneous devices, the Heterogeneous Programming Library (HPL). Our optimizer takes as input a simple version of a code and then tunes it for the device where it is going to be executed by performing the most usual set of optimizations applicable in heterogeneous devices. These optimizations are parametrized using a set of optimization parameters that need to be tuned for the device. The HPL library has also been equipped with an autotuner that can be used to this purpose. The effectiveness of the autotuner and the optimizer has been tested on several codes and devices. The results show that the combination of the autotuner and the optimizer make the tested codes 16 times faster on average than the original codes written by the programmer. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V.
