Sparse Matrix Block-Cyclic Redistribution

Sparse Matrix Block-Cyclic Redistribution
Run-time support for the CYCLIC(k) redistribution on the SPMD computation model is presently very relevant for the scientific community. This work is focused to the characterization of the sparse matrix redistribution and its associate problematic due to the use of compressed representations. Two main improvements about the buffering and the coordinates calculation modify the original algorithm. Our solutions contain a Collecting, a Communication and Mixing stage with different influence in the execution time depending on the sparsity of the matrix and the number of processors. Experimental results have been carried out on a Cray T3E for real matrices and different redistribution parameters.
