Abstract

This paper presents a performance modeling methodology that is faster than traditional cycle-accurate simulation, more sophisticated than performance estimation based on system peak-performance metrics, and is shown to be effective on a class of High Performance Computing benchmarks. The method yields insight into the factors that affect performance on single-processor and parallel computers.
