35th Parallel CFD International Conference 2024Mini-Symposium on Tool Support for Developing Highly-Parallel CFD Applications
This can be partially mitigated by abstraction, for instance as offered by third-party libraries, but at the expense of larger and more intricate software stacks that need to be managed. The conjunction of abstraction, code complexity, and growing software stacks complicates code analysis and, in turn, leads to performance problems potentially remaining undiscovered and unfixed. Consequently, tools support is indispensable in various aspects throughout the software engineering life-cycle to support both developers and users.
This mini-symposium aims at gathering developers and users of software tools assisting in the development of sophisticated, highly-parallel HPC software for CFD. It provides a platform for experts of different fields empowering discussion and knowledge transfer to achieve the overarching goal: raising reproducibility, automation, and documentation during the whole software-engineering life-cycle of CFD applications on high-performance computers. The tools are ranging from performance analysis, over debugging of HPC codes, to management of the involved software stacks.
A list of potential contributions may include, but it is not limited to:
- Tools for automation in the software development life-cycle
- Workflows for automated testing and deploying of software projects
- Methods and tools for debugging and correctness checking of highly-parallel applications
- Tool support for (node-level) performance analysis
- User success stories of utilizing tools
