Detailed Performance Simulation and Validation of HLAM/PetaSIM

• We will use the application emulators to produce application and machine specifications at varying levels of granularity and then use PetaSIM to estimate performance obtained on selected current and future architectures. We will use detailed simulation tools developed at Maryland and at other sites to characterize the performance of the application emulators on selected current architectures (e.g. IBM SP-2) and on a limited range of future architectures.
• We will use various techniques, including detailed simulation tools, instrumented static and runtime compilation and analytic models, to produce PetaSIM cost models.
