Accomplishments• V 2.0 of Serial ReaxFF Code Released
• V 1.0 of Parallel ReaxFF Code Released
• Initial third-party benchmarking (Goddard et al.) shows Purdue Reax is approx. 10 x faster than competing/ collaborating implementation
• Initial third-party benchmarking shows parallel version to be stable and scalable to 1K cores.

Continuing Workplan
• Benchmark scalability on larger configurations
• Address known scalability bottlenecks (qEq solver)
• Fully integrate into LAMMPS
• Continue development of FFOpt

Purdue ReaxFF
• Optimizations in every part of the code:• efficient generation of nbrs & intrs lists• completely dynamic memory management for
all lists• fast computation of bond-related forces• computation of van der Waals & Coulomb
interactions with cubic spline interpolations• efficient QEq solver: GMRES+ILU-based
preconditioner

Purdue ReaxFF
• Results:• Approximately 10 times faster than competing
Reax code• 10-20 times smaller memory footprint and
adaptive to resource and problem requirements

Purdue Reax: Performance
• Reference 6540 atom bulk water system• QEq tolerance = 10−6 (refactor every 100 steps)
• QEq tolerance = 10−10 (refactor every 30 steps)
tol=10−6 tol=10−10
solver matvecs time matvecs time
CG + diag. 31 0.18 95 0.54
GMRES+ diag. 18 0.11 81 0.49
CG/ilu(10−2) 9 0.06 18 0.13
GMRES /ilu(10−2) 6 0.04 15 0.11
• ILU-based preconditioners 3 x better performance!• QEq now takes as low as 6-7% of total time!

Purdue Parallel Reax
• Inherits major part of the code from SerialReax• slower QEq solver: CG + diagonal
preconditioner• larger memory footprint: conservative
allocation + communication buffers• internal release: Feb 16, 2010• will be used in PRISM metal-dielectric contact
simulations

Purdue Parallel Reax Performance
Bulk water system (6540 atoms):executable cores time per step QEq time per step
SerialReax (icc -fast) 1 0.74 0.12
ParallelReax(icc -O3) 1 1.46 0.55
Bilayer system (56800 atoms):
executable cores time per step QEq time per step
SerialReax (icc -fast) 1 7.76 1.34
ParallelReax(icc -O3) 1 13.30 6.30
• Performance degrades mostly due to parallel QEq solver• Working with Dr Manguoglu on SPIKE-based QEq solver
