StarPlat

A Versatile DSL for Graph Analytics

What is StarPlat?

StarPlat is a graph DSL that simplifies parallelizing graph algorithms across different architectures. It generates code for OpenMP, MPI, and CUDA from the exact high-level algorithmic specification, offering a solution to the challenge of parallel programming complexity. With its focus on abstraction, it enables domain experts to concentrate on algorithm design, effectively tackling various graph algorithms. The DSL's constructs, including forAll and fixed-point, facilitate parallelization and iterative procedures, easing the implementation of algorithms. Additionally, StarPlat supports data types like Graph, node, edge, and properties. Its code generator optimizes code for shared memory, distributed, and many-core platforms, handling graph representation and storage. By streamlining the complexities of parallelization, StarPlat enables domain experts to implement and optimize graph algorithms for diverse architectures efficiently.

Thank you for contributing to our wiki! To ensure uniformity and readability across our documentation, please adhere to the following guidelines when creating or editing content:

Page Titles

• Every page should begin with a primary title using h2 or preceded by ##.

  Example:

  ## Introduction to Parallel Programming
  

Operating System or Architecture Subsections

• When mentioning a specific OS or architecture, pair it with the type of parallelization framework.

• Use h4 or precede with #### for these subsections.

  Example:

  #### Windows | OpenMP
  

File Names

• Whenever referring to a file name, wrap the name with single backticks.

  Example:

  Open the `README.md` file for more instructions.
  

Code Snippets

• For code snippets or command examples, always enclose them with three backticks. If possible, specify the programming language immediately after the first three backticks for syntax highlighting.

  Example:

  ```python
  def hello_world():
      print("Hello, world!")
