Abstract

Description

The implementation of a proof-of-concept Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics kernel on the Cell processor is described in detail, illustrating issues encountered in the porting process. The resulting code performs up to 45GFlop/s per socket, indicating that the Cell processor is likely to be a good platform for future Lattice QCD calculations.
