Abstract
A computer-implemented method comprises a topological communications configurator (TCC) of a computing system determining a connections-optimized configuration of processors among compute nodes of the system. Processors included in the compute nodes can execute compute workers of an application of the system and can form intranodal segments of an internodal interconnection topology communicatively coupling the intranodal segments. The intranodal segments can be interconnected via an internodal interconnections fabric. The TCC can determine the connections-optimized configuration based on internodal communications costs corresponding to communications routes among the internodal segments via the internodal interconnection fabric. The computing system can comprise the TCC and can comprise a data-parallel computing system.
