-To compute one iteration of the EA method each GPU performs the
-followings steps. First roots are shared with OpenMP. Each thread
-starts by copying all the previous roots inside its GPU. Then each GPU
-will compute an iteration of the EA method on its own roots. For that
-all the other roots are used. At the end of an iteration, the updated
-roots are copied from the GPU to the CPU. The convergence is checked
-on the new roots. Finally each CPU will update its own roots in the

-Our parallel implementation of EA to find root of polynomials using a CUDA-MPI approach is a data parallel approach. It splits input data of the polynomial to solve among MPI processes. In Algorithm \ref{alg2-cuda-mpi}, input data are the polynomial to solve $P$, the solution vector $Z$, the previous solution vector $ZPrev$, and the value of errors of stop condition $\Delta z$. Let $p$ denote the number of MPI processes on and $n$ the degree of the polynomial to be solved. The algorithm performs a simple data partitioning by creating $p$ portions, of at most $\lceil n/p \rceil$ roots to find per MPI process, for each $Z$ and $ZPrec$. Consequently, each MPI process of rank $k$ will have its own solution vector $Z_{k}$ and $ZPrec$, the error related to the stop condition $\Delta z_{k}$, enabling each MPI process to compute $\lceil n/p \rceil$ roots.
-
-Since a GPU works only on data already allocated in its memory, all local input data, $Z_{k}$, $ZPrec$ and $\Delta z_{k}$, must be transferred from CPU memories to the corresponding GPU memories. Afterwards, the same EA algorithm (Algorithm \ref{alg1-cuda}) is run by all processes but on different polynomial subset of roots $ p(x)_{k}=\sum_{i=1}^{n} a_{i}x^{i}, k=1,...,p$. Each MPI process executes the loop \verb=(While(...)...do)= containing the CUDA kernels but each MPI process computes only its own portion of the roots according to the rule ``''owner computes``''. The local range of roots is indicated with the \textit{index} variable initialized at (line 5, Algorithm \ref{alg2-cuda-mpi}), and passed as an input variable to $kernel\_update$ (line 10, Algorithm \ref{alg2-cuda-mpi}). After each iteration, MPI processes synchronize (\verb=MPI_Allreduce= function) by a reduction on $\Delta z_{k}$ in order to compute the maximum error related to the stop condition. Finally, processes copy the values of new computed roots from GPU memories to CPU memories, then communicate their results to other processes with \verb=MPI_Alltoall= broadcast. If the stop condition is not verified ($error > \epsilon$) then processes stay withing the loop \verb= while(...)...do= until all the roots sufficiently converge.

+\subsection{A MPI-CUDA approach}
+Our parallel implementation of EA to find the roots of polynomials using a
+CUDA-MPI approach follows a similar approach to the one used in
+CUDA-OpenMP. Each processor is responsible for computing its own part of
+roots using all the roots computed by other processors at the previous
+iteration. The difference between both approaches lies in the way
+processors communicate and exchange data. With MPI, processors need to
+send and receive data explicitly. So in
+Algorithm~\ref{alg2-cuda-mpi}, after the initialization phase all the
+processors have the same $Z$ vector. Then they need to compute the
+parameters used by the $MPI\_AlltoAll$ routines (line 4). In practice,
+each processor needs to compute its offset and its local
+size. Processors need to allocate memory on their GPU and need to copy
+their data on the GPU (line 5). At the beginning of each iteration, a
+processor starts by transferring the whole vector $Z$ from the CPU to the
+GPU (line 7). Only the local part of $Z^{prev}$ is saved (line
+8). After that, a processor is able to compute an updated version of
+its own roots (line 9) with the EA method. The local error is computed
+(line 10) and the global error is also computed using $MPI\_Reduce$ (line 11). Then
+the local roots are transferred from the GPU memory to the CPU memory
+(line 12) before being exchanged between all processors (line 13) in
+order to give to all processors the last version of the roots (with
+the $MPI\_AlltoAll$ routine). If the convergence is not satisfied, a
+new iteration is executed.
