Hi Chris,
You should be able to run on MIC/Xeon Phi as these accelerators, when used
in symmetric mode, behave just like a compute node. However, for two main
reasons the performance will be quite bad:
- no SIMD accelerated kernels for MIC;
- no accelerator-specific parallelization implemented (as
No idea. It was not a development target for 4.6, and there are no explicit
plans for considering Xeon Phi at this time. It would be interesting to
hear whether people can get benefit from them from our existing OpenMP
parallelism support for (particularly) PME + Verlet kernels.
Roughly speaking,
Dear users:
does anybody have any experience with gromacs on a cluster in which each node
is composed of 1 or 2 x86 processors plus an Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor? Can
gromacs make use of the xeon phi coprocessor? If not, does anybody know if that
is in the pipeline?
Thank you,
Chris.
