The framework relies on non-intrusive sampling of complex multiphysics models and enables their exploitation for optimization and decision-making. In addition, its distributed sampling engine makes efficient use of massively-parallel architectures while introducing novel fault tolerance and load balancing mechanisms. We demonstrate these features by interfacing Korali with existing high-performance software such as Aphros, Lammps (CPU-based), and Mirheo (GPU-based) and show efficient scaling for up to 512 nodes of the CSCS Piz Daint supercomputer. Finally, we present benchmarks demonstrating that Korali outperforms related state-of-the-art software frameworks.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.13457v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2005.13457v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"korali-a-high-performance-computing-framework","repo_url":"https://github.com/cselab/aphros","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
