    GraphBLAS is a new package designed to provide a standard set of building blocks for graph algorithms based formally in the language of linear algebra. This paper suggests some extensions of the underlying math that would enhance GraphBLAS’ ability to stream updates into a computation without a bulk recomputation, and at greatly reduced computational complexity. The process is applied to several examples.

    Technologies such as Multi-Channel DRAM (MCDRAM) or High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) provide significantly more bandwidth than conventional memory. This trend has raised questions about how applications should manage data transfers between levels.This paper focuses on evaluating different usage modes of the MCDRAM in Intel Knights Landing (KNL) manycore processors. We evaluate these usage modes with a sorting kernel and a sortingbased streaming benchmark. We develop a performance model for the benchmark and use experimental evidence to demonstrate the correctness of the model. The model projects near-optimal numbers of copy threads for memory bandwidth bound computations. We demonstrate on KNL up to a 1.9X speedup for sort when the problem does not fit in MCDRAM over an OpenMP GNU sort that does not use MCDRAM.
