We describe chipStar, an open source software stack that enables building unmodified CUDA and HIP programs into binaries that rely solely on open cross-vendor compute standards OpenCL and SPIR-V. The relevant technical aspects of chipStar and the feature mismatches between the CUDA/HIP APIs and OpenCL are discussed along with a set of standard extension proposals to bridge…

Conference Paper
Modern exascale GPU- and APU-based systems provide multiple power and energy sensors, but differences in scope, update rate, timing, and filtering complicate the attribution of short-lived accelerator activity. This paper presents a methodology to characterize and correct these effects on Cray EX systems with AMD Instinct MI250X GPUs (Frontier) and MI300A APUs (Portage). U…

Conference Paper
We present a composable design scheme for the development of hybrid quantum/classical algorithms and workflows for applications of quantum simulation. Our object-oriented approach is based on constructing an expressive set of common data structures and methods that enable programming of a broad variety of complex hybrid quantum simulation applications. The abstract core of…

We explore the performance and portability of the novel Mojo language for scientific computing workloads on GPUs. As the first language based on the LLVM’s Multi-Level Intermediate Representation (MLIR) compiler infrastructure, Mojo aims to close performance and productivity gaps by combining Python’s interoperability and CUDA-like syntax for compile-time portable GPU prog…

With high-performance computing systems now running at exascale, optimizing power-scaling management and resource utilization has become more critical than ever. This paper explores runtime power-capping optimizations that leverage integrated CPU-GPU power management on architectures like the NVIDIA GH200 superchip. We evaluate energy-performance metrics that account for s…

Conference Paper
The increasing complexity and power/energy demands of heterogeneous exascale systems, such as the Frontier supercomputer, present significant challenges for measuring and optimizing power consumption in applications. Current tools either lack the resolution to capture fine-grained power and energy measurements, fail to validate in-band measurements against out-of-band powe…

Conference Paper
Application energy optimization in HPC data centers face two critical gaps. Systematic methodologies that connect data center policies to application decisions and accessible monitoring tools that enable data-driven optimization. We address both gaps through two complementary pillars. First, we present a methodology based on extended weighted Energy Delay Product (EDP) to…

Conference Paper
The increasing adoption of tightly integrated, heterogeneous architectures, combined with the slowdown of Moore’s law, has made application power and energy-driven optimizations critical to efficiently use high-performance computing systems. This paper introduces a newly developed open-source toolkit that seamlessly integrates the Linux real-time hardware monitoring progra…

Conference Paper
In the HPC area, both hardware and software move quickly. Often new hardware is developed and deployed, the corresponding software stack, including compilers and other tools, are under active development while leading edge software developers are working to port and tune their applications, all at the same time. While the software ecosystem is in flux, one of the key chall…

Conference Paper
As computing systems approach the limits of traditional silicon technology, the diminishing returns in performance per watt present a significant barrier to sustaining growth in HPC. From a large-scale scientific supercomputing facility point of view, we propose a multifaceted strategy toward specialized hardware and architectures that are optimized for energy efficiency i…
