A computer executed parallel program scalability bottleneck detection method is provided, which includes: building a program structure graph for a program source code; collecting performance data based on a sampling technique during runtime; the performance data including: performance data of each vertex of the program structure graph and inter-process communication dependence of communication vertices; building a program performance graph by filling the program structure graph with the collected performance data, the program performance graph recording data and control dependence of each process as well as inter-process communication dependence; detecting problematic vertices from the program performance graph, and starting from some or all of the problematic vertices, backtracking through data/control dependence edges within a process and communication dependence edges between different processes, to detect scalability bottleneck vertices.

Parallel program scalability bottleneck detection method and computing device

A hybrid network system, a communication method and a network node are provided. The hybrid network system includes a combined network system architecture of a point-to-point network and a broadcast network, the point-to-point network is provided with a plurality of point-to-point channels, and each network node can send a message to a corresponding network node or receive the message from the corresponding network node through the point-to-point channel; the broadcast network is provided with a plurality of broadcast channels, and each broadcast channel can only have one sender at most at the same time, but can have a plurality of receivers; at least a part of network nodes have the capability of sending messages to be broadcast, at least a part of network nodes have the capability of receiving the broadcast messages, and at least some network nodes are configured to select the broadcast network or the point-to-point network at least according to communication tasks to be executed per se to complete the communication tasks to be executed. Preferably, each network node has the capability of sending and receiving the broadcast message. The hybrid network system of the embodiment of the present invention has high flexibility and high communication performance.
