Problem: Existing GPU programming models force a trade-off between low-level performance and high-level productivity, with no single solution achieving all three goals of productivity, portability, and performance. Method: The authors propose nomp, a framework for building domain-specific compilers that uses a pragma-based programming model and a runtime for code transformation and generation based on user-provided metadata. Finding or experimental evidence: The abstract does not disclose experimental results. Why it matters: nomp aims to improve programmer productivity without sacrificing performance or portability by enabling reuse of domain-specific optimization patterns.

Work Stealing for the 2D-Mesh Topology of Satellite Constellations in Low Earth Orbit

The problem is that existing Asynchronous Many-Task (AMT) runtimes assume a fully connected network with low, uniform latency, which is invalid for satellite constellations in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) that communicate via a sparse mesh topology. The method proposes a neighbor-only work stealing strategy where workers steal exclusively from directly connected neighbors to avoid multi-hop communication. Experimental evidence on an HPC cluster with an emulated mesh shows the neighbor-only strategy performs within ~2.2% of global stealing on both balanced and irregular workloads, and an analytical model indicates a growing latency advantage with constellation size. This matters because it demonstrates that neighbor-only stealing can match global stealing performance in emulated settings, suggesting it is a viable and potentially preferable approach for adapting AMT to Space Edge Computing (SEC) at scale.
