Porting some OpenFOAM hotspots to FPGA using HLS. Starting with the dotInterpolate function.
My first such project. Also, a first for my company.

Will keep you all posted.

My implementation of the GaussSeidel smoother using a Diagnol direct access scheme in OpenFOAM as compared to the default GS smoother LDU gives almost ~50% improvements in cache misses and hits for a structured 3D cavity tutorial. Profiled using the amazing LIKWID profiler. Will share a deep technical report soon. Check it out and use - https://github.com/amartyadav/DIAGaussSeidel-Smoother-OpenFOAM

Released my DIA-format Gauss-Seidel smoother plugin for OpenFOAM v13. MIT licensed.

Replaces the default LDU smoother on structured hex meshes — DIA stores diagonal bands contiguously, reducing pointer indirection and DRAM pressure. Expecting 10–20% wall-clock gains and better cache utilisation based on standalone profiling. Full OpenFOAM benchmarks incoming.

My work for the month is to optimise the matrix adressing scheme of OpenFOAM to reduce cache miss. Initial idea is to replace the LDU Matrix addressing scheme with Diagnol matrix addressing scheme using multiple arrays for structures meshes. Will check it out on a simple 2D Poisson equation using Gauss-Seidel solver to check performance benefits, and will eventually proceed to introduce a new solver as a plugin if benefits are noticeable.
Wish me luck.
