Abstract

Fast scalable collective operations are very important for achieving good application performance for highly parallel systems. This paper discusses scalability and absolute performance of various algorithms for collective communication. Performance is measured on the world largest SCI cluster, a machine with 96 dual Pentium II nodes interconnected with SCI, showing good scalability and performance.
