Short summary
The impacts of collective algorithms, interconnect topologies, and routing algorithms on the performance and scalability of transpositions, halo exchanges, and allreduce operations are significant. The performance of communications can be improved when the congestion is mitigated by a proper configuration of the topology and a congestion-balanced routing algorithm. The scalability of the spectral models could be acceptable for exascale supercomputers.
