Application Analysis and Porting in the PRACE Project

NETHERLANDS NATIONAL COMPUTING FACILITIES FOUNDATION (NCF), THE NETHERLANDS, MICHIELSE{at}NWO.NL

This paper reports on the construction of a benchmark suite, to be used both within the current PRACE project and beyond, when actual Tier-0 systems will be purchased. PRACE targets toward a European research infrastructure, ideally consisting of various hardware architectures. This implicitly means that some applications are more suited to certain architectures than others. This needs to be reflected in the final benchmark suite, with the idea that potentially subsets of the overall benchmark suite may be used for benchmarking different architectures. The paper gives insight into the ideas behind the construction of the benchmark suite, including the current status of it.

Key Words: PRACE • applications • benchmarks • analysis • scalability
