Parallelization spectroscopy: Analysis of thread-level parallelism in HPC programs
Abstract
In this paper, we present a method-parallelization spectroscopy-for analyzing the thread-level parallelism available in production High Performance Computing (HPC) codes.We survey a number of techniques that are commonly used for parallelization and classify all the loops in the case study presented using a sensitivity metric: how likely is a particular technique is successful in parallelizing the loop. © 2009 ACM.
