Welcome the the aces4 wiki

aces4 is a new and improved implementation of the Super Instruction Architecture. The original application domain is Computational Chemistry, particularly coupled cluster methods which are dominated by tensor algebra using very large, dense multi-dimensional arrays with irregular access patterns, and very complex algorithms.

ACES 4

  • New implementation
  • Architected for adaptability and sustainability as well as performance
  • Separation of concerns between Computer Scientists and Computational Chemists
  • Domain specific programming language (SIAL) and a runtime systems (SIP) that supports "programming with blocks".
