ARCHER Webinar: Flexible, Scalable Mesh and Data Management using PETSc DMPlex
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15:00 BST, Wed 24th June 2015

Michael Lange, Imperial College, London

Scalable file I/O and efficient domain topology management present
important challenges for many scientific applications if they are to fully
utilise HPC resources. The use of composable abstractions allows a wide
variety of application codes to utilise a range of mesh file formats while
automatically inheriting the benefits of well-known performance
optimisations.

In this talk we give an overview of PETSc's DMPlex domain topology
abstraction and it's recent integration with the Fluidity CFD application
and the Firedrake automated finite element system. We highlight how
both applications utilise DMPlex's mesh management capabilities to
perform common mesh management tasks and data layout optimisation,
while promoting application interoperability through shared file I/O routines.
