Performance Counter Monitoring for the Blue Gene / Q Architecture
نویسنده
چکیده
This quarter’s newsletter features the performance area, which has a broad focus including autotuning, performance modeling, end-to-end performance measurement, and tool integration. We aim to extend and integrate mature, robust performance measurement technologies and develop a comprehensive performance data management framework that can be used by other areas of the SUPER project. End-to-end performance measurement will correlate application-specific measurements with system-wide conditions at the time of execution. Performance measurements will feed into an integrated auto-tuning framework that encompasses identification and outlining of performancecritical kernels, compiler-based code transformations, and empirical optimization of runtime parameters.
