MetaPart

Participant : Aurélien Esnard [corresponding member] .

MetaPart is a library that adresses the challenge of (dynamic) load balancing for emerging complex parallel simulations, such as multi-physics or multi-scale coupling applications. First, it offers a uniform API over state-of-the-art (hyper-) graph partitioning software packages such as Scotch , PaToH , METIS , Zoltan , Mondriaan , etc. etc. Based upon this API, it provides a framework that facilitates the development and the evaluation of high-level partitioning methods, such as MxN repartitioning or coupling-aware partitionining (co-partitioning).

The framework is publicy available at Inria Gforge: http://metapart.gforge.inria.fr .
