On parallelizing the Clifford algebra product for \texttt{CLIFFORD}

From MaRDI portal
Publication:742364




Abstract: We present, as a proof of concept, a way to parallelize the Clifford product in CL_{p,q} for a diagonalized quadratic form as a new procedure `cmulWpar' in the Clifford package for Maple(R). The procedure uses a new `Threads' module available under Maple 15 (and later) and a new Clifford procedure `cmulW' which computes the Clifford product of any two Grassmann monomials in CL_{p,q} with a help of Walsh functions. We benchmark `cmulWpar' and compare it to two other procedures `cmulNUM' and `cmulRS' from Clifford. We comment on how to improve `cmulWpar' by taking advantage of multi-core processors and multithreading available in modern processors.
