چکیده

As with any computer system, the performance of supercomputers depends upon the workloads that serve as their input. Unfortunately, however, there are many important aspects of the supercomputer workloads that have not been modeled, or that have being modeled only incipiently. This paper attacks this problem by considering requested time (and its relation with execution time) and the possibility of job cancellation, two aspects of the supercomputer workload that have not been modeled yet. Moreover, we also improve upon existing models for the arrival instant and partition size.

Modeling of Parameters in Supercomputer Workloads

Evaluation methods for parallel computers often require the availability of relevant workload information. To this end, workload traces recorded on real installations are frequently used. Alternatively, workload models are applied. However, often not all necessary information are available for a specific workload. In this paper, a model is presented to recover an estimated job execution time wh...

Workload Characteristics of a Multi-cluster Supercomputer

This paper presents a comprehensive characterization of a multi-cluster supercomputer workload using twelve-month scientific research traces. Metrics that we characterize include system utilization, job arrival rate and interarrival time, job cancellation rate, job size (degree of parallelism), job run time, memory usage, and user/group behavior. Correlations between metrics (job runtime and me...
