Parallel Software Benchmarks for High Performance BMC3/IS Systems

摘要

This final technical report summarizes research accomplished under the ExpertScience and Engineering (ESE) program by the Northeast Parallel Architectures Center at Syracuse University. This 13-month research endeavor, entitled 'Parallel Software Benchmarks for BMC3/IS Systems,' examined issues in developing parallel software and tools that can be used in a parallel/distributed computing environment. These issues were evaluated via the development and application of benchmarks over a wide range of applications. Moreover, a hierarchical set of tool criteria to evaluate and benchmark different tools for parallel/distributed computing was also developed. This report gives a description of the process, benchmarks, criteria and a multi-target tracker implementation using various parallel software tools.
