HPCKernel module for the A64FX hardware barrier
Since June 2020, the Top500 list is led by the supercomputer Fugaku, which comprises over 7.5 million Fujitsu A64FX cores. Besides their raw computational power, the cores are equipped with features that support parallel execution on the systems: hardware barrier, sector cache (cache partitioning), and prefetch distance. The hardware barrier is of special interest because […]Since June 2020, the Top500 list is led by the supercomputer Fugaku, which comprises over 7.5 million Fujitsu A64FX cores.
