To meet the needs of computational scientists to evaluate the
performance of their parallel, scientific applications, we present four
parallel performance evaluation tools – TAU, PAPI, KOJAK, and PerfSuite,
all of which are avilable at ARSC.
This workshop will focus on performance data collection, analysis, and
performance optimization.
The workshop will present how performance data can be collected using
either TAU's (Tuning and Analysis Utilities) automated instrumentation
or from hardware performance counters using PAPI.
The bulk of the workshop will cover how to analyze the performance data
collected and drill down to find performance bottlenecks and determine
their causes.
The workshop will include some sample codes that illustrate the different
instrumentation and measurement choices available to the users.
We will attempt to collect and analyze performance data for additional
user codes during the hands-on portion of the workshop. Users and
developers are welcome to contact the instructors ahead of time to begin
collecting data so as to have it on hand for the workshop.
Target Audience: This course is geared towards computational scientists.
