Foil 11 Implementation of FORALL

From DoD HPF Training -- 3. Parallel Constructs in HPF DoD Training and Others -- 1995-98. by Chuck Koelbel -- Rice University
1 Use owner-computes rule to partition computation
  • See implementation of DISTRIBUTE
2 Semantics of the construct allow parallelism
  • All rows of dependence diagram can execute in parallel
3 Dependence analysis can further limit synchronization
  • If RHS and LHS do not access the same element, no synchronization is needed
4 Data need only be moved at synchronization points
  • Before each RHS and before each LHS
  • These may be combined with previous/following statement
