Abstract
This chapter explores the use of OpenACC directives to accelerate the calculation of a so-called dissimilarity matrix, the most costly computation required for clustering analysis of molecular dynamics simulations.
By the end of this chapter, the reader will have an understanding of:
• Key algorithmic analysis steps that help guide decision making involved in application acceleration and parallelization and help set realistic performance targets for a successful OpenACC implementation on GPUs and other accelerators ...
