Description:

This is project in the course CSE445/598 Distributed Software Development.

The purpose of this project is to make sure that you understand and are familiar with the concepts covered in the lectures, including distributed computing, multithreading, thread definition, creation, management, synchronization, cooperation, event-driven programming, client and server architecture, service execution model of creating a new thread for each request, the performance of parallel computing, and the impact of multi-core processors to multithreading programs with complex coordination and cooperation. Furthermore, you are able to apply these concepts in a programming project.

Description:

In service-oriented distributed systems, server applications may be invoked by multiple clients. Such applications can utilize multicore architectures and threading techniques to improve service response time and to reduce resource contention. In Fall 2011, Intel’s Thread Building Blocks (TBB) technique is discussed in the class for server application design. TBB provides straightforward ways of introducing performance threading, by turning synchronous calls into asynchronous calls and converting large methods (threads) into smaller ones. To demonstrate the performance impact, a program that validates the Collatz conjecture will be used to evaluate the performance in single core and multicore environments to measure the speedup and efficiency.

Description:

Many cores are critical to Web App/Service Hosting for the following reasons:

  • Cloud computing and Web-based applications are moving distributed desktop computing to more centralized Web servers
  • The server does multi-tasking in kernel mode
  • The server does multi-tasking and multithreading in user mode, with potentially much higher load
  • Many applications are deployed in a Web server
  • Each Web application and each Web service can be accessed by many clients at the same time
  • Each access (session) will be created as new thread

Recommended Audience:

Advanced programmers, Graduate students, Undergraduate students

Description:

In this 3 hour module, participants will learn the evolution of parallel processing architectures. After completing this module, a student should be able to describe how threading architectures relates to software development, to rapidly estimate the effort required to thread time consuming regions and to prototype the solution.

Topics covered include:

  • Processor and platform support for multithreaded applications
  • Four-step threading methodology
  • Analyze – find code locations for threading
  • Design – develop and implement code to thread
  • Test for Correctness – ensure threading has not introduced errors
  • Tune for Performance – find performance bottlenecks

This course module walks through the process of migrating a serial program to a parallel (threaded) one, using the OpenMP model, and the Intel Parallel Studio suite of tools. It can stand alone, be used as the sole threading session in a more general course, or as part of an overall threading course. There are 9 lab activities in the sequence transforming a single test case application from serial to a parallel equivalent. Total time, with labs, will take about 3 hours.

Recommended Audience:

Advanced programmers

Language:

English

Keywords:

OpenMP, threaded, programming, threads, Intel Parallel Studio, Parallel Amplifier, Parallel Inspector, Threading Methodology
