Indeed, the increasing complexity of these requested +applications combined with a continuous increase of their sizes lead to +write distributed and parallel algorithms requiring significant hardware +resources (grid computing, clusters, broadband network, etc\dots{}) but +also a non-negligible CPU execution time. We consider in this paper a +class of highly efficient parallel algorithms called iterative executed +in a distributed environment. As their name suggests, these algorithm +solves a given problem that might be NP- complete complex by successive +iterations ($X_{n +1} = f(X_{n})$) from an initial value $X_{0}$ to find +an approximate value $X^*$ of the solution with a very low +residual error. Several well-known methods demonstrate the convergence +of these algorithms. Generally, to reduce the complexity and the +execution time, the problem is divided into several \emph{pieces} that will +be solved in parallel on multiple processing units. The latter will +communicate each intermediate results before a new iteration starts +until the approximate solution is reached. These distributed parallel +computations can be performed either in \emph{synchronous} communication mode +where a new iteration begin only when all nodes communications are +completed, either \emph{asynchronous} mode where processors can continue +independently without or few synchronization points. Despite the +effectiveness of iterative approach, a major drawback of the method is +the requirement of huge resources in terms of computing capacity, +storage and high speed communication network. Indeed, limited physical +resources are blocking factors for large-scale deployment of parallel +algorithms. + +In recent years, the use of a simulation environment to execute parallel +iterative algorithms found some interests in reducing the highly cost of +access to computing resources: (1) for the applications development life +cycle and in code debugging (2) and in production to get results in a +reasonable execution time with a simulated infrastructure not accessible +with physical resources. Indeed, the launch of distributed iterative +asynchronous algorithms to solve a given problem on a large-scale +simulated environment challenges to find optimal configurations giving +the best results with a lowest residual error and in the best of +execution time. According our knowledge, no testing of large-scale +simulation of the class of algorithm solving to achieve real results has +been undertaken to date. We had in the scope of this work implemented a +program for solving large non-symmetric linear system of equations by +numerical method GMRES (Generalized Minimal Residual) in the simulation +environment SimGrid. The simulated platform had allowed us to launch +the application from a modest computing infrastructure by simulating +different distributed architectures composed by clusters nodes +interconnected by variable speed networks. In addition, it has been +permitted to show the effectiveness of asynchronous mode algorithm by +comparing its performance with the synchronous mode time. With selected +parameters on the network platforms (bandwidth, latency of inter cluster +network) and on the clusters architecture (number, capacity calculation +power) in the simulated environment, the experimental results have +demonstrated not only the algorithm convergence within a reasonable time +compared with the physical environment performance, but also a time +saving of up to \np[\%]{40} in asynchronous mode. + +This article is structured as follows: after this introduction, the next +section will give a brief description of iterative asynchronous model. +Then, the simulation framework SimGrid will be presented with the +settings to create various distributed architectures. The algorithm of +the multi -splitting method used by GMRES written with MPI primitives +and its adaptation to SimGrid with SMPI (Simulated MPI) will be in the +next section. At last, the experiments results carried out will be +presented before the conclusion which we will announce the opening of +our future work after the results. + +\section{The asynchronous iteration model} + +Décrire le modèle asynchrone.

We use a multisplitting method based on the block Jacobi partitioning to solve this linear system on a large scale platform composed of $L$ clusters of processors. In this case, we apply a row-by-row splitting without overlapping +\[ +\left(\begin{array}{ccc} +A_{11} & \cdots & A_{1L} \\ +\vdots & \ddots & \vdots\\ +A_{L1} & \cdots & A_{LL} +\end{array} \right) +\times +\left(\begin{array}{c} +X_1 \\ +\vdots\\ +X_L +\end{array} \right) += +\left(\begin{array}{c} +Y_1 \\ +\vdots\\ +Y_L +\end{array} \right)\] +in such a way that successive rows of matrix $A$ and both vectors $x$ and $b$ are assigned to one cluster, where for all $l,i\in\{1,\ldots,L\}$ $A_{li}$ is a rectangular block of $A$ of size $n_l\times n_i$, $X_l$ and $Y_l$ are sub-vectors of $x$ and $y$, respectively, each of size $n_l$ and $\sum_{l} n_l=\sum_{i} n_i=n$. -\section{SimGrid} +The multisplitting method proceeds by iteration to solve in parallel the linear system by $L$ clusters of processors, in such a way each sub-system +\begin{equation} +\left\{ +\begin{array}{l} +A_{ll}X_l = Y_l \mbox{,~such that}\\ +Y_l = B_l - \displaystyle\sum_{i=1,i\neq l}^{L}A_{li}X_i, +\end{array} +\right. +\label{eq:4.1} +\end{equation} +is solved independently by a cluster and communication are required to update the right-hand side sub-vectors $Y_l$, such that the sub-vectors $X_i$ represent the data dependencies between the clusters. As each sub-system (\ref{eq:4.1}) is solved in parallel by a cluster of processors, our multisplitting method uses an iterative method as an inner solver which is easier to parallelize and more scalable than a direct method. In this work, we use the parallel GMRES method~\cite{ref1} which is one of the most used iterative method by many researchers. -Décrire SimGrid (Arnaud) +\begin{algorithm} +\caption{A multisplitting solver with inner iteration GMRES method} +\begin{algorithmic}[1] +\Input $A_l$ (local sparse matrix), $B_l$ (local right-hand side), $x^0$ (initial guess) +\Output $X_l$ (local solution vector)\vspace{0.2cm} +\State Load $A_l$, $B_l$, $x^0$ +\State Initialize the shared vector $\hat{x}=x^0$ +\For {$k=1,2,3,\ldots$ until the global convergence} +\State $x^0=\hat{x}$ +\State Inner iteration solver: \Call{InnerSolver}{$x^0$, $k$} +\State Exchange the local solution ${X}_l^k$ with the neighboring clusters and copy the shared vector elements in $\hat{x}$ +\EndFor -\section{Simulation of the multi-splitting method} +\Statex -Décrire le problème (algo) traité ainsi que le processus d'adaptation à SimGrid. +\Function {InnerSolver}{$x^0$, $k$} +\State Compute the local right-hand side: $Y_l = B_l - \sum^L_{i=1,i\neq l}A_{li}X_i^0$ +\State Solving the local splitting $A_{ll}X_l^k=Y_l$ using the parallel GMRES method, such that $X_l^0$ is the local initial guess +\State \Return $X_l^k$ +\EndFunction +\end{algorithmic} +\label{algo:01} +\end{algorithm} +%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% -\section{Experimental results} -\section{Conclusion} -% An example of a floating figure using the graphicx package. -% Note that \label must occur AFTER (or within) \caption. -% For figures, \caption should occur after the \includegraphics. -% Note that IEEEtran v1.7 and later has special internal code that -% is designed to preserve the operation of \label within \caption -% even when the captionsoff option is in effect.

We have noticed from this +study that the results depend on the following parameters: (1) at the network +level, we found that the most critical values are the bandwidth (bw) and the +network latency (lat). (2) Hosts power (GFlops) can also influence on the +results. And finally, (3) when submitting job batches for execution, the +arguments values passed to the program like the maximum number of iterations or +the ``external'' precision are critical to ensure not only the convergence of the +algorithm but also to get the main objective of the experimentation of the +simulation in having an execution time in asynchronous less than in synchronous +mode, in others words, in having a ``speedup'' less than 1 (Speedup = Execution +time in synchronous mode / Execution time in asynchronous mode). + +A priori, obtaining a speedup less than 1 would be difficult in a local area +network configuration where the synchronous mode will take advantage on the rapid +exchange of information on such high-speed links. Thus, the methodology adopted +was to launch the application on clustered network. In this last configuration, +degrading the inter-cluster network performance will \emph{penalize} the synchronous +mode allowing to get a speedup lower than 1. This action simulates the case of +clusters linked with long distance network like Internet. + +As a first step, the algorithm was run on a network consisting of two clusters +containing fifty hosts each, totaling one hundred hosts. Various combinations of +the above factors have providing the results shown in Table~\ref{tab.cluster.2x50} with a matrix size +ranging from Nx = Ny = Nz = 62 to 171 elements or from $62^{3} = \np{238328}$ to +$171^{3} = \np{5211000}$ entries. + +Then we have changed the network configuration using three clusters containing +respectively 33, 33 and 34 hosts, or again by on hundred hosts for all the +clusters. In the same way as above, a judicious choice of key parameters has +permitted to get the results in Table~\ref{tab.cluster.3x33} which shows the speedups less than 1 with +a matrix size from 62 to 100 elements. + +In a final step, results of an execution attempt to scale up the three clustered +configuration but increasing by two hundreds hosts has been recorded in Table~\ref{tab.cluster.3x67}. + +Note that the program was run with the following parameters: + +\paragraph*{SMPI parameters} + +\begin{itemize} + \item HOSTFILE: Hosts file description. + \item PLATFORM: file description of the platform architecture : clusters (CPU power, +\dots{}), intra cluster network description, inter cluster network (bandwidth bw, +lat latency, \dots{}). +\end{itemize} + + +\paragraph*{Arguments of the program} + +\begin{itemize} + \item Description of the cluster architecture; + \item Maximum number of internal and external iterations; + \item Internal and external precisions; + \item Matrix size NX, NY and NZ; + \item Matrix diagonal value = 6.0; + \item Execution Mode: synchronous or asynchronous. +\end{itemize} + +\begin{table} + \centering + \caption{2 clusters X 50 nodes} + \label{tab.cluster.2x50} + \AG{Les images manquent dans le dépôt Git.

It is noticed that the result remains stable even if we vary the +external precision from \np{E-5} to \np{E-9}. By increasing the problem size up to 100 +elements, it was necessary to increase the CPU power of \np[\%]{50} to \np[GFlops]{1.5} for a +convergence of the algorithm with the same order of asynchronous mode efficiency. +Maintaining such a system power but this time, increasing network throughput +inter cluster up to \np[Mbits/s]{50}, the result of efficiency of about \np[\%]{40} is +obtained with high external precision of \np{E-11} for a matrix size from 110 to 150 +side elements. + +For the 3 clusters architecture including a total of 100 hosts, Table~\ref{tab.cluster.3x33} shows +that it was difficult to have a combination which gives an efficiency of +asynchronous below \np[\%]{80}. Indeed, for a matrix size of 62 elements, equality +between the performance of the two modes (synchronous and asynchronous) is +achieved with an inter cluster of \np[Mbits/s]{10} and a latency of \np{E-1} ms. To +challenge an efficiency by \np[\%]{78} with a matrix size of 100 points, it was +necessary to degrade the inter cluster network bandwidth from 5 to 2 Mbit/s. + +A last attempt was made for a configuration of three clusters but more power +with 200 nodes in total. The convergence with a speedup of \np[\%]{90} was obtained +with a bandwidth of \np[Mbits/s]{1} as shown in Table~\ref{tab.cluster.3x67}. + +\section{Conclusion} + +\section*{Acknowledgment} + + +The authors would like to thank\dots{} % trigger a \newpage just before the given reference % number - used to balance the columns on the last page % adjust value as needed - may need to be readjusted if % the document is modified later -%\IEEEtriggeratref{8} -% The "triggered" command can be changed if desired: -%\IEEEtriggercmd{\enlargethispage{-5in}} - -% references section - -% can use a bibliography generated by BibTeX as a .bbl file -% BibTeX documentation can be easily obtained at: -% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/biblio/bibtex/contrib/doc/ -% The IEEEtran BibTeX style support page is at: -% http://www.michaelshell.org/tex/ieeetran/bibtex/ \bibliographystyle{IEEEtran} -% argument is your BibTeX string definitions and bibliography database(s) -\bibliography{bib/hpccBib} -% -% manually copy in the resultant .bbl file -% set second argument of \begin to the number of references -% (used to reserve space for the reference number labels box) -%\begin{thebibliography}{1} -% -%\bibitem{IEEEhowto:kopka} -%H.~Kopka and P.~W.
