netloc models the entire Curie supercomputer
The TADaaM team succeeded at modeling the entire Curie supercomputing and its interconnection network (one of the largest in Europe, with more than 5000 nodes and 800 switches) thanks to its netloc software. This enables new mapping strategies for thousands of computing tasks in order to improve the performance of numerical simulation applications. Joint work with …
