Parallel Efficiency-Aware Standard MPI-Based Malleability
摘要
This article presents the integration of the TALP performance metrics collector in the Dynamic Management of Resources Library (DMRlib) to let Slurm take performance-aware reconfiguration actions. Traditionally, scientific applications that make use of high-performance computing cannot reallocate resources once assigned, making it difficult to adapt workloads. Dynamic resource management, especially through the adaptability of MPI processes, is proposed as a solution to this limitation. Thanks to the integration of TALP, DMRlib will offer new reconfiguration policies based on performance metrics such as parallel efficiency, load balancing, or communication efficiency.
