Title
Control Formats For Unsymmetric And Symmetric Sparse Matrix-Vector Multiplications On Openmp Implementations
Abstract
In this paper, we propose "control formats" to obtain better thread performance of sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SpMV) for unsymmetric and symmetric matrices. By using the control formats, we established the following maximum speedups of SpMV in 16-thread execution on one node of the T2K Open Supercomputer: (1) 7.14x for an unsymmetric matrix by using the proposed Branchless Segmented Scan compared to the original Segmented Scan method; (2) 12.7x for a symmetric matrix by using the proposed Zero-element Computation-free method compared to a simple SpMV implementation.
