Title:
Performance Modeling of Large-Scale Parallel Systems and Applications
Abstract:
We will describe novel methodologies for performance analysis and modeling developed by PAL. We will emphasize the applications of the predictive models that we developed applicable to extreme-scale parallel architectures and applications, including architectural design, workload characterization, application optimization and system diagnostics.. We will present ongoing and planned future performance projects in PAL at Los Alamos National Laboratory, based on the new methods, that can be applied to next generation parallel systems -- 100 T-Ops and beyond.

We will conclude by summarizing a number of factors that in our view will significantly impact the design and performance of future generation parallel systems.
