• Design and Implementation of an extended collectives library for unified Parallel C 

      Teijeiro Barjas, Carlos; López Taboada, Guillermo; Touriño, Juan; Doallo, Ramón; Mouriño, José C.; Mallón, Damián A.; Wibecan, Brian (Springer New York LLC, 2013)
      [Abstract] Unified Parallel C (UPC) is a parallel extension of ANSI C based on the Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) programming model, which provides a shared memory view that simplifies code development while it ...
    • Design and Implementation of MapReduce using the PGAS Programming Model with UPC 

      Teijeiro Barjas, Carlos; López Taboada, Guillermo; Touriño, Juan; Doallo, Ramón (IEEE Computer Society, 2012-01-03)
      [Abstract] MapReduce is a powerful tool for processing large data sets used by many applications running in distributed environments. However, despite the increasing number of computationally intensive problems that require ...
    • Developing adaptive multi-device applications with the Heterogeneous Programming Library 

      Viñas Buceta, Moisés; Bozkus, Zeki; Fraguela, Basilio B.; Andrade, Diego; Doallo, Ramón (Springer, 2015)
      [Abstract] The usage of heterogeneous devices presents two main problems. One is their complex programming, a problem that grows when multiple devices are used. The second issue is that even if the codes for these devices ...
    • Easy Dataflow Programming in Clusters with UPC++ DepSpawn 

      Fraguela, Basilio B.; Andrade, Diego (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-06-01)
      [Abstract]: The Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) programming model is one of the most relevant proposals to improve the ability of developers to exploit distributed memory systems. However, despite its important ...
    • Exploiting Heterogeneous Parallelism With the Heterogeneous Programming Library 

      Viñas Buceta, Moisés; Bozkus, Zeki; Fraguela, Basilio B. (Elsevier, 2013)
      [Abstract] While recognition of the advantages of heterogeneous computing is steadily growing, the issues of programmability and portability hinder its exploitation. The introduction of the OpenCL standard was a major step ...
    • Facilitating the development of stencil applications using the Heterogeneous Programming Library 

      Viñas Buceta, Moisés; Fraguela, Basilio B.; Andrade, Diego; Doallo, Ramón (2017)
      [Abstract] Stencil computations are very common in scientific codes. Heterogeneous systems achieve good results solving these problems, but their programming is complex because of the ghost regions required in multi-device ...
    • High Productivity Multi-device Exploitation with the Heterogeneous Programming Library 

      Viñas Buceta, Moisés; Fraguela, Basilio B.; Andrade, Diego; Doallo, Ramón (Elsevier, 2016)
      [Abstract] Heterogeneous devices require much more work from programmers than traditional CPUs, particularly when there are several of them, as each one has its own memory space. Multidevice applications require to distribute ...
