NPS-NRL-Rice-UIUC Collaboration on Navy Atmosphere-Ocean Coupled Models on Many-Core Computer Architectures Annual Report

Abstract

The ever increasing pace of improvement in the state-of-the-art high performance computing technology promises enhanced capabilities for the next-generation atmospheric models. In this project we primarily consider incorporating state of the art numerical methods and algorithms to enable the Nonhydrostatic Unified Model of the Atmosphere (http://faculty.nps.edu/fxgirald/projects/NUMA), also known as NUMA, to fully exploit the current and future generations of parallel many-core computers. This includes sharing the tools developed for NUMA (through open-source) with the U.S. community (building on NUOPC and ESPC) that can synergistically move the knowledge of accelerator-based computing to many of the climate, weather, and ocean laboratories around the country.
