SWIFT: Using task-based parallelism, fully asynchronous communication, and graph partition-based domain decomposition for strong scaling on more than 100,000 cores (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Schaller, M., Gonnet, P., Chalk, A. B., & Draper, P. W. (2016). SWIFT: Using task-based parallelism, fully asynchronous communication, and graph partition-based domain decomposition for strong scaling on more than 100,000 cores. In PASC '16 : Proceedings of the Platform for Advanced Scientific Computing Conference : Lausanne, Switzerland — June 08 - 10, 2016. https://doi.org/10.1145/2929908.2929916

We present a new open-source cosmological code, called SWIFT, designed to solve the equations of hydrodynamics using a particle-based approach (Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics) on hybrid shared / distributed-memory architectures. SWIFT was designed fro...

On the use of particle based methods for cosmological hydrodynamical simulations (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Schaller, M., Bower, R., & Theuns, T. (2013). On the use of particle based methods for cosmological hydrodynamical simulations.

In this paper, we attempt to clarify the relation between different particle based methods and try to assess their viability in the context of osmological simulations. We identify two classes of methods depending on the number of neighbours required... Read More about On the use of particle based methods for cosmological hydrodynamical simulations.

SWIFT: Fast algorithms for multi-resolution SPH on multi-core architectures (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Gonnet, P., Schaller, M., Theuns, T., & Chalk, A. (2013). SWIFT: Fast algorithms for multi-resolution SPH on multi-core architectures.

This paper describes a novel approach to neighbour-finding in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations with large dynamic range in smoothing length. This approach is based on hierarchical cell decompositions, sorted interactions, and a task-... Read More about SWIFT: Fast algorithms for multi-resolution SPH on multi-core architectures.

GPU implementation of a SPH-ALE fluid dynamics solver (2011)
Conference Proceeding
Marongiu, J., Leduc, J., & Schaller, M. (2011). GPU implementation of a SPH-ALE fluid dynamics solver.

Application of SPH methods in an industrial context is closely linked to the capacity of exploiting the very last and best computational resources available. Indeed SPH involves a computational load that can be significant compared to others and well... Read More about GPU implementation of a SPH-ALE fluid dynamics solver.
