The reverse time migration (RTM) method is critical in seismic imaging for oil and gas industries. He demonstrates the effectiveness of his Multilayer Buffer System (MLBS) framework on Shaheen-2 (using 2048 compute nodes) and Summit supercomputers (using 2048 compute nodes equipped with a total of 12288 GPUs. MLBS achieves up to 2.5X and 1.4X performance speedups compared to the reference RTM implementation for a large 3D solution grid on Shaheen-2 and Summit, respectively.
