Characterization of Multicore Architectures using Task-Parallel ILU-type Preconditioned CG Solvers

Ponència presentada al 2nd Workshop on Power-Aware Computing (PACO 2017) Ringberg Castle, Germany, July, 5-8 2017We investigate the eficiency of state-of-the-art multicore processors using a multi-threaded task-parallel implementation of the Conjugate Gradient (CG) method, accelerated with an incomplete LU (ILU) preconditioner. Concretely, we analyze multicore architectures with distinct designs and market targets to compare their parallel performance and energy eficiency
