Global average
For distributed data, averaging
communication.
- For example, average over whole grid.
- Which parts of the calculation are parallel?
- Message passing:
- Partial sums of local data only
- Send partial sums to every other PE
- Add up local copies of partial sums to get local copy of global sum.
- Data parallel:
- Similar; efficiency is implementation-dependent
