We present Streami, an extensible GPU-accelerated library for the computation of field lines in fluid flows on high-performance computers. Streami acts as a thin layer used for both post-hoc or in-situ analysis and can interface with existing MPI applications. We discuss Streami's application programming interface, key design decisions that led to Streami's high performance and extensibility, as well as extensions to support different fluid flow field representations. We also present a sample application for rapid prototyping and interactive seed point placement. Streami is released under a permissive open-source software license.

We present RaFI, a CUDA and MPI based software framework that simplifies the task of building GPU-enabled data-parallel software where rays or similar work items need to migrate between different GPUs. RaFI provides a simple interface for CUDA kernels to forward such work items to other GPUs, while under the hood managing all the CUDA and MPI related work required to make this happen. We describe RaFI's motivation and implementation, and show its potential in several example applications.
