Description

PIConGPU is an open fully relativistic, manycore, 3D3V particle-in-cell plasma simulation code. Combining an optimized and highly parallel computational core with a scalable data exchange scheme and high-performance I/O on distributed memory, the code is used for predictive simulations on today's largest supercomputers. PIConGPU supports running on all major architectures, such as x86, GPUs, ARM and OpenPower, in a performance-portable and maintainable way with a single source code base. We develop scalable data workflows based on the open meta-data standard openPMD for frictionless data exchange between various simulation stages and experiments. This poster presents the current state and recent developments of PIConGPU.
