|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>Zoltan's hierarchical balancing automates the creation of hierarchical
|
||
|
|
partitions. The implementation of Hierarchical Partitioning (HIER) in Zoltan is
|
||
|
|
due to Jim Teresco (Williams College), with many suggestions and ideas
|
||
|
|
from the entire Zoltan team.<P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The hierarchical balancing implementation utilizes a lightweight
|
||
|
|
intermediate structure and a set of callback functions that permit an
|
||
|
|
automated and efficient hierarchical balancing which can use any of
|
||
|
|
the procedures available within Zoltan without modification and in any
|
||
|
|
combination. Hierachical balancing is invoked by an application the
|
||
|
|
same way as other Zoltan procedures. Since Zoltan is data-structure
|
||
|
|
neutral, it operates on generic "objects" and interfaces with
|
||
|
|
applications through callback functions.<P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A hierarchical balancing step begins by building an intermediate
|
||
|
|
structure using the application-supplied callbacks. The initial
|
||
|
|
structure is computed using <B>Zoltan_Build_Graph</B> to build the
|
||
|
|
same structure that is used to support partitioning using the Parmetis
|
||
|
|
and Jostle libraries. The hierarchical balancing procedure then
|
||
|
|
provides its own callback functions to allow existing Zoltan
|
||
|
|
procedures to be used to query and update the intermediate structure
|
||
|
|
at each level of a hierarchical balancing. The structure is augmented
|
||
|
|
to keep track of objects and their needed information during the
|
||
|
|
procedure. After all levels of the hierarchical balancing have been
|
||
|
|
completed, Zoltan's usual migration arrays are constructed and
|
||
|
|
returned to the application. Thus, only lightweight objects are
|
||
|
|
migrated internally between levels, not the (larger and more costly)
|
||
|
|
application data. More details about the fields of the intermediate
|
||
|
|
structure and how the are used can be found in the Zoltan distribution
|
||
|
|
in <I>hier/README</I>.<P>

Data Structure Definitions</H3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>There is one major data structure in HIER, defined in
|
||
|
|
<i>hier/hier.h</i>. The <I>struct HierPartParamsStruct</I> includes
|
||
|
|
all information needed by the hierarchical balancing procedures. The
|
||
|
|
fields are documented in comments in the structure definition.
