Algorithmic Differentiation of Pragma-Defined Parallel Regions: Differentiating Computer Programs Containing Openmp

by Michael Forster

Numerical programs often use parallel programming techniques such as OpenMP to compute the program's output values as efficient as possible. In addition, derivative values of these output values with respect to certain input values play a crucial role. To achieve code that computes not only the output values simultaneously but also the derivative values, this work introduces several source-to-source transformation rules. These rules are based on a...
