+Our objective consists in implementing a root finding polynomial
+algorithm on multiple GPUs. To this end, it is primordial to know how
+to manage CUDA contexts of different GPUs. A direct method for
+controlling the various GPUs is to use as many threads or processes as
+GPU devices. We can choose the GPU index based on the identifier of
+OpenMP thread or the rank of the MPI process. Both approaches will be
+investigated. \LZK{Répétition! Le même texte est déjà écrit comme intro dans la section II. Sinon ici on parle seulement de l'implémentation cuda sans mpi et openmp!}
+
+
+
+
+Like any parallel code, a GPU parallel implementation first requires to determine the sequential code and the data-parallel operations of a algorithm. In fact, all the operations that are easy to execute in parallel must be made by the GPU to accelerate the execution, like the steps 3 and 4. On the other hand, all the sequential operations and the operations that have data dependencies between CUDA threads or recursive computations must be executed by only one CUDA thread or a CPU thread (the steps 1 and 2).\LZK{La méthode est déjà mal présentée, dans ce cas c'est encore plus difficile de comprendre que représentent ces différentes étapes!} Initially, we specify the organization of parallel threads by specifying the dimension of the grid \verb+Dimgrid+, the number of blocks per grid \verb+DimBlock+ and the number of threads per block.
+
+The code is organized as kernels which are parts of code that are run on GPU devices. For step 3, there are two kernels, the first is named \textit{save} is used to save vector $Z^{K-1}$ and the second one is
+named \textit{update} and is used to update the $Z^{K}$ vector. For
+step 4, a kernel tests the convergence of the method. In order to
+compute the function H, we have two possibilities: either to use the
+Jacobi mode, or the Gauss-Seidel mode of iterating which uses the most
+recent computed roots. It is well known that the Gauss-Seidel mode
+converges more quickly. So, we use Gauss-Seidel iterations. To
+parallelize the code, we create kernels and many functions to be
+executed on the GPU for all the operations dealing with the
+computation on complex numbers and the evaluation of the
+polynomials. As said previously, we manage both functions of
+evaluation: the normal method, based on the method of
+Horner and the method based on the logarithm of the polynomial. All
+these methods were rather long to implement, as the development of
+corresponding kernels with CUDA is longer than on a CPU host. This
+comes in particular from the fact that it is very difficult to debug
+CUDA running threads like threads on a CPU host. In the following
+paragraph Algorithm~\ref{alg1-cuda} shows the GPU parallel
+implementation of Ehrlich-Aberth method.

+\section{The EA algorithm on Multiple GPUs}
+\label{sec4}
+\subsection{an OpenMP-CUDA approach}
+Our OpenMP-CUDA implementation of EA algorithm is based on the hybrid
+OpenMP and CUDA programming model. All the data
+are shared with OpenMP amoung all the OpenMP threads. The shared data
+are the solution vector $Z$, the polynomial to solve $P$, and the
+error vector $\Delta z$. The number of OpenMP threads is equal to the
+number of GPUs, each OpenMP thread binds to one GPU, and it controls a
+part of the shared memory. More precisely each OpenMP thread owns of
+the vector Z, that is $(n/num\_gpu)$ roots where $n$ is the
+polynomial's degree and $num\_gpu$ the total number of available
+GPUs. Then all GPUs will have a grid of computation organized
+according to the device performance and the size of data on which it
+runs the computation kernels.
+
+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
+shared memory arrays containing all the roots.
+
+%In principle a grid is set by two parameter DimGrid, the number of block per grid, DimBloc: the number of threads per block. The following schema shows the architecture of (CUDA,OpenMP).

+%Each thread OpenMP compute the kernels on GPUs,than after each iteration they copy out the data from GPU memory to CPU shared memory. The kernels are re-runs is up to the roots converge sufficiently. Here are below the corresponding algorithm:
+
+%% \RC{Surement à virer ou réécrire pour etre compris sans algo}
+%% $num\_gpus$ OpenMP threads are created using
+%% \verb=omp_set_num_threads();=function (step $3$, Algorithm
+%% \ref{alg2-cuda-openmp}), the shared memory is created using
+%% \verb=#pragma omp parallel shared()= OpenMP function (line $5$,
+%% Algorithm\ref{alg2-cuda-openmp}), then each OpenMP thread allocates
+%% memory and copies initial data from CPU memory to GPU global memory,

+%% Algorithm \ref{alg2-cuda-openmp}), used as input data in the
+%% $kernel\_update$ (line 10, Algorithm \ref{alg2-cuda-openmp}). After

+%% \verb=#pragma omp barrier;= to gather all the correct values of
+%% $\Delta z$, thus allowing the computation the maximum stop condition
+%% on vector $\Delta z$ (line 12, Algorithm

+%% memories to CPU memory. The OpenMP threads execute kernels until 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.

+\section{Experiments}
+\label{sec5}
+We study two categories of polynomials: sparse polynomials and full polynomials.\\
+{\it A sparse polynomial} is a polynomial for which only some coefficients are not null. In this paper, we consider sparse polynomials for which the roots are distributed on 2 distinct circles:
+\begin{equation}
+ \forall \alpha_{1} \alpha_{2} \in C,\forall n_{1},n_{2} \in N^{*}; P(z)= (z^{n_{1}}-\alpha_{1})(z^{n_{2}}-\alpha_{2})
+\end{equation}\noindent
+{\it A full polynomial} is, in contrast, a polynomial for which all the coefficients are not null. A full polynomial is defined by:
+%%\begin{equation}
+ %%\forall \alpha_{i} \in C,\forall n_{i}\in N^{*}; P(z)= \sum^{n}_{i=1}(z^{n^{i}}.a_{i})
+%%\end{equation}
+
+\begin{equation}
+ {\Large \forall a_{i} \in C, i\in N; p(x)=\sum^{n}_{i=0} a_{i}.x^{i}}
+\end{equation}
+
+For our test, 4 cards GPU tesla Kepler K40 are used. In order to
+evaluate both the GPU and Multi-GPU approaches, we performed a set of
+experiments on a single GPU and multiple GPUs using OpenMP or MPI with
+the EA algorithm, for both sparse and full polynomials of different
+sizes. All experimental results obtained are perfomed with double
+precision float data and the convergence threshold of the EA method is
+set to $10^{-7}$. The initialization values of the vector solution of
+the methods are given by Guggenheimer method~\cite{Gugg86}.
+
+
+\subsection{Evaluation of the CUDA-OpenMP approach}
+
+Here we report some experiments witt full and sparse polynomials of
+different degrees with multiple GPUs.
+\subsubsection{Execution times of the EA method to solve sparse polynomials on multiple GPUs}
+
+In this experiments we report the execution time of the EA algorithm, on single GPU and multi-GPUs with (2,3,4) GPUs, for different sparse polynomial degrees ranging from 100,000 to 1,400,000.
