ADVENTURE System - Easy to Run Faster with Large Data On Post-Petascale Supercomputers
Overview
We have been developing an open source system software called ADVENTURE system. The ADVENTURE system is a general-purpose parallel finite element analysis system and can simulate a large scale analysis model with supercomputer like the Earth Simulator or K-computer. In the ADVENTURE system, HDDM (hierarchical domain decomposition method), a very effective technique for large-scale analysis, was developed.
Our aim in this project is to develop a numerical library based on HDDM that is extended to pre and post processing parts, including mesh generation and visualization of large scale data, for the Post Petascale simulation.
In this project, LexADV, an open source software library, is developed for the extreme-scale numerical simulations in continuum mechanics.
