SYSTEMS USING COMPUTATION GRAPHS FOR FLOW SOLVERS

Abstract:

An embodiment of a method can create a directed acyclic graph (DAG) from a programmer specified set of computation units to solve, in a computer program, physics based simulations of physical systems, and the DAG can be used to analyze and debug the computer program. In this method, the computer program can be created by automatically determining dependency relationships in the set of computation units and automatically schedule their execution. The method can also automatically allocate memory for the computation units.
