Abstract

In this paper, we show the potential benefits of translating OpenMP code to low-level parallel code using a data flow execution model, instead of targeting it directly to a multi-threaded program. Our goal is to improve data locality as well as reduce synchronization overheads without introducing data distribution directives to OpenMP. We outline an API that enables us to realize this model using SMARTS (Shared Memory Asynchronous Run-Time System), describe the work of the compiler and discuss the benefits of translating OpenMP to parallel code using data flow execution model. We show experimental results based part of the Parallel Ocean Program (POP) code and Jacobi kernel code running on an SGI Origin 2000.
