Abstract

Mapping tasks to physical processors in parallel computing system may include partitioning tasks in the parallel computing system into groups of tasks, the tasks being grouped according to their communication characteristics (e.g., pattern and frequency); mapping, by a processor, the groups of tasks to groups of physical processors, respectively; and fine tuning, by the processor, the mapping within each of the groups.
