NIC (Network Interface Controller) based Collective communicationi offload technology is an important way to alleviate the communication bottleneck for current parallelm applications. For the next generation exascale parallel computer system, NIC based collective communicatioin offload technology is facing new challenges, such as the new many-core processor architecture, explosive grow of system size and large scale system network, etc. It is required to take the research on new NIC architecture to efficiently offload collective communication on next generation exascale parallel systems. This project proposes a new software-hardware architecture to solve these challenges. The new architecture relies on the software to generate the algorithm frame, which is runned on the programmable simple hardware unit. The new NIC based collective communication offload architecture greatly reduce the hardware design complexity and resources overhead, meanwhile, it can efficiently support many-core processor architecture, and it scalability can easily support system size over 100000 nodes. This project is plan to take the research on complex network topology based collective communication offload engine, non-block communication and sparse collective communication etc under the new architecture.Our research target is to make breakthrough for next next generation NIC architecture on the problem of hardware-software interface, collective algorithm framework generation, hardware logic design, NIC architecture etc. The research is significant on theory and desing of NIC architecture for exascale computer system.
