14 Methods: algorithms and implementations gravity (from gas, stars and dark matter) hydrodynamics (gas accretion, gas cooling) Ramses (Teyssier) Gadget (Springel) Eulerian hydrodynamics (AMR codes) Highly optimised algorithms - minimise calculations! Lagrangian hydrodynamics (SPH codes) 14

15 Lagrangian hydrodynamics Gravity: density is found by summing weighted mass over neighbours distant force from mesh (FFTs) nearby force calculated from tree 15

16 Tree calculation (in 2 dimensions) 16

17 Contents: Introduction: cosmological simulations: aims and methods computational challenges load - (im) balance Swift: task based hydrodynamics and gravity 17

18 Build-up of dark matter halo typical dynamical time of a particle is 20 times longer than particle in a halo, and 1000 times that of a particle in a disc 18 Springel+08

19 Amount of memory per particle is large (many diagnostic properties stored, such as metallicity, star formation rate, etc), little computational time spent on interaction between two particles Runs require a lot of memory (and hence many cores/ nodes): currently 10 billion particle runs Lots of time spent in finding neighbours: leads to loadimbalance 19

30 QuickSched library Task-based parallelism Main concepts Shared-memory parallel programming paradigm in which the computation is formulated in an implicitly parallelizable way that automatically avoids most of the problems associated with concurrency and load-balancing. We first reduce the problem to a set of inter-dependent tasks. For each task, we need to know: I I Which tasks it depends on, Which tasks it conflicts with. Each thread then picks up a task which has no unresolved dependencies or conflicts and computes it.
