BaryTree

A work-in-progress library for fast computation of N-body interactions on multiple GPUs, BaryTree implements barycentric Lagrange and Hermite polynomial interpolation treecodes. The current code employs an OpenACC GPU implementation.

Authors:

Department of Mathematics, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.

Building

This project uses CMake to manage and configure its build system. In principle, building this project is as simple as executing the following from the top level directory of BaryTree:

mkdir build; cd build; export CC=<C compiler>; cmake ..; make

Compiling GPU versions requires that a PGI C compiler be used. For more information on building and installing, see INSTALL.md in this directory.

Examples

See the examples directory for several example executables that use BaryTree and the Trilinos Zoltan library for load balancing, in addition to an example using the library's interface for C programs. See examples/README.md for more details.

Interfaces

See the interfaces directory for BaryTree interfaces for non-C programs. Currently, there is a Python interface and an example script using that interface. See interfaces/README.md for more details.
