Cluster FFT Functions
This section describes the cluster Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) functions implemented in
.
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library
These functions are available only for
Intel® 64 and Intel® Many Integrated Core architectures
.
The cluster FFT function library was designed to perform fast Fourier transforms on a cluster, that is, a group of computers interconnected via a network. Each computer (node) in the cluster has its own memory and processor(s). Data interchanges between the nodes are provided by the network.
One or more processes may be running in parallel on each cluster node. To organize communication between different processes, the cluster FFT function library uses the Message Passing Interface (MPI). To avoid dependence on a specific MPI implementation (for example, MPICH, Intel® MPI, and others), the library works with MPI via a message-passing library for linear algebra called BLACS.
Cluster FFT functions of
provide one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and multi-dimensional (up to the order of 7) functions and both Fortran and C interfaces for all transform functions.
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library
To develop applications using the cluster FFT functions, you should have basic skills in MPI programming.
The interfaces for the
cluster FFT functions are similar to the corresponding interfaces for the conventional
FFT functions. Refer there for details not explained in this section.
