DASH: Distributed Data Structures and Parallel Algorithms in a Global Address Space

摘要

DASH is a new programming approach offering distributed data structures and parallel algorithms in the form of a C++ template library. This article describes recent developments in the context of DASH concerning the ability to execute tasks with remote dependencies, the exploitation of dynamic hardware locality, smart data structures, and advanced algorithms. We also present a performance and productivity study where we compare DASH with a set of established parallel programming models.
