DynaSOAr: A Parallel Memory Allocator for Object-Oriented Programming on GPUs with Efficient Memory Access (Artifact)

pdf-format:
DARTS-5-2-2.pdf (0.3 MB)

Abstract

This artifact contains the source code of DynaSOAr, a CUDA framework for Single-Method Multiple-Objects (SMMO) applications. SMMO is a type of object-oriented programs in which parallelism is expressed by running the same method on all applications of a type.
DynaSOAr is a dynamic memory allocator, combined with a data layout DSL and a parallel do-all operation. This artifact provides a tutorial explaining the API of DynaSOAr, along with nine benchmark applications from different domains. All benchmarks can be configured to use a different memory allocator to allow for a comparison with other state-of-the-art memory allocators.
