Abstract: Multi-core has become the standard architecture model for modern processors. As the main trend is to increase the number of cores on a single chip, the associated hierarchical memory system, which is concurrently shared by all available compute units, is becoming more complex and less predictable. Many common scientific and technical computation kernels suffer from a significant overhead from memory activities, which stands as a bottleneck and mostly bounds the overall performance. On top of this, any parallel application is subject to fundamental and conceptual aspects that moderate the expectations for a perfect scalability. In addition, hardware mechanisms incur some overhead in case of concurrent actions. Moreover, the effective scheduling of the tasks and the management of their interactions by the system also yield an extra time cost. All these aforementioned aspects affect the expected scalability and efficiency on multiprocessor systems. The aim of this talk is to provide a broad view of the main hardware and software hindering points related to parallel efficiency on manycore processors and tips to overcome them at the best.
