abstract = {We examine an alternative approach to heterogeneous
cluster-computing in the many-core era for Earth system
models, using the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather
Forecasts Hamburg (ECHAM)/Modular Earth Submodel System
(MESSy) Atmospheric Chemistry (EMAC) model as a pilot
application on the Dynamical Exascale Entry Platform (DEEP).
A set of autonomous coprocessors interconnected together,
called Booster, complements a conventional HPC Cluster and
increases its computing performance, offering extra
flexibility to expose multiple levels of parallelism and
achieve better scalability. The EMAC model atmospheric
chemistry code (Module Efficiently Calculating the Chemistry
of the Atmosphere (MECCA)) was taskified with an offload
mechanism implemented using OmpSs directives. The model was
ported to the MareNostrum 3 supercomputer to allow testing
with Intel Xeon Phi accelerators on a production-size
machine. The changes proposed in this paper are expected to
contribute to the eventual adoption of Cluster–Booster
division and Many Integrated Core (MIC) accelerated
architectures in presently available implementations of
Earth system models, towards exploiting the potential of a
fully Exascale-capable platform.},
