Abstract
Performance modeling is becoming an increasingly important part of the parallel application development process, particularly for expensive computations that will be run on very high-end systems where resources are scarce. We describe a performance modeling tool SIPMaP (Super Instruction Processor Modeling and Prediction) developed for the Super-Instruction Architecture (SIA). The SIA is designed for applications where the dominant data structures are large multi-dimensional arrays and it comprises a DSL, the Super-Instruction Assembly Language (SIAL) that supports expressing algorithms in terms of blocks (tiles), and its runtime system Super Instruction Processor (SIP) that manages distribution and disk storage of the arrays. SIPMaP generates performance models from the SIAL source code. In comparison with many applications where useful performance models have been developed and reported, these programs are irregular and have other difficult to model characteristics such as extensive overlapping of communication and computation.
