Abstract

In this paper, we report the implementation and measured performance of a global simulation of planetary rings on Sunway TaihuLight. The basic algorithm is the Barnes-Hut tree, but we have made a number of changes to achieve good performance for extremely large simulations on machines with an extremely large number of cores. The measured performance is around 35% of the theoretical peak. The main limitation comes from the performance of the interaction calculation kernel itself, which is currently around 50%.
