Hardware: memory and communication A distributed memorysystem of three computers Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Hardware: memory and communication Non-uniform memory access (NUMA): 2 nodes each of 4 processor units Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Hardware: classes of parallel computers A multi-core computing is doing by multicore processors. Multi-core processor a single computing component with two or more independent actual central processing units (called "cores") An AMD Athlon X2 6400+ dual-core processor.

Hardware: classes of parallel computers A computer cluster consists of a set of loosely connected or tightly connected computers that work together so that in many respects they can be viewed as a single system. Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Hardware: classes of parallel computers Massively parallelcomputing refers to the use of a large number of processors (or separate computers) to perform a set of coordinated computations in parallel.

Hardware: Peak Performance How to calculate peak flop/s Multiply together the number of processors, the number of cores per processor, the number of floating point operations that can be done in each core on each clock cycle, and the clock rate in cycles per second: 16K quadcore dual FMADD 850 MHz (16 x1024) x4 x2 x2 x(850 x10^6 ) =0.222 x10^15 Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Software OpenMP (Multicore Programming) is an Application Programming Interface (API) that supports multi-platform shared memory multiprocessing programming in C, C++ and Fortran. OpenMP is an implementation of multithreading, a method of parallelizing whereby a master thread (a series of instructions executed consecutively) forks a specified number of slave threads and a task is divided among them. The threads then run concurrently, with the runtime environment allocating threads to different processors. Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Software Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a language independent communications protocol used to program parallel computers. Both point-to-point and collective communication are supported. MPI "is a message-passing application programmer interface, together with protocol and semantic specifications for how its features must behave in any implementation."MPI's goals are high performance, scalability, and portability. MPI remains the dominant model used in high-performance computing today. Kazakh-Britain Technical University

Science paradigms Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Science paradigms The first paradigm: Many hundreds of year ago the main matter of the science was description of natural phenomena Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Science paradigms The second paradigm: Last few hundreds years ago theoretical branch had been come with generalizations of experimental data and mathematical models. The main breakthrough at the time was development of differential and integral calculus. Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Science paradigms The third paradigm: Next, the theoretical models grew too complicated to solve analytically. Last few decades has come intensive computational branch. Computational science is a third leg now: experiment, theory, computations have equal input! Kazakh-Britain Technical University

1. Motivation Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Cavernous/fractured reservoirs Common situation for reservoirs in the carbonate environment: oil is accumulated in caverns, but permeability is determined mainly by fractures. Rock matrix is not permeable. Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Cavernous/fractured reservoirs: core sample Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Uncovered fracture corridor Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Fracture corridors Recovery of fracture corridors is of great importance for effective oil field development. Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Variety of fractures in the carbonate environment (following J.-P.Petit et al.) FC – fracture corridors BFC – bed controlled fracture MBF – multibed fractures HPF – highly persistent fractures Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Multiscale 3D heterogeneous model Kazakh-Britain Technical University
What is our goal? Simulation of wave propagation in realistic 3D heterogeneous media taking into account microstructure (fractures, cracks, caverns etc.) to get a knowledge about propagation of a scattered energy. How are we going to do this? Time domain explicit finite-differences methods with local grid refinement in time and space. Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Artifacts Estimated amplitude ofscattered waves (theory of single scattering approximation)is about 0.001 – 0.01 with respect to the incident one!! Artificial reflections must be around Kazakh-Britain Technical University
2. Presentation of the method for finite-difference modelling Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Local grid refinement • Fine grid should be used only where \caverns\cracks\fractures are presented in order to avoid unrealistic demands on computer resources. • Different grids cause artificial interface reflections due to different numerical dispersion. • These artificial reflections must be around 10-3 - 10-4 with respect to incident wave. • Finite-difference scheme must be stable. Kazakh-Britain Technical University
Parallel implementation via domain decomposition Fine-grid area can be placed anywhere within the reference model regardless to the specific domain decomposition used in coarse-grid model. Kazakh-Britain Technical University
