Abstract

Aeroacoustics simulations leverage the tremendous computational power of today’s supercomputers, e.g., to predict the noise emissions of airplanes. The emergence of GPUs that are usable through directive-based programming models like OpenACC promises a cost-efficient solution for flow-induced noise simulations with respect to hardware expenditure and development time. However, OpenACC’s capabilities for real-world C++ codes have been scarcely investigated so far and software costs are rarely evaluated and modeled for this kind of high-performance projects. In this paper, we present our OpenACC parallelization of ZFS, an aeroacoustics simulation framework written in C++, and its early performance results. From our implementation work, we derive common pitfalls and lessons-learned for real-world C++ codes using OpenACC. Furthermore, we borrow software cost estimation techniques from software engineering to evaluate the development efforts needed in a directive-based HPC environment. We discuss applicability and challenges of the popular COCOMO II model applied to the parallelization of ZFS.
