D-SAB: A Sparse Matrix Benchmark Suite

In this paper we present the Delft Sparse Architecture Benchmark (D-SAB) Suite for evaluating sparse matrice architectures. The focus is on providing a benchmark suite which is flexible and easy to port on (novel) systems, yet complete enough to expose the main difficulties which are encountered when dealing with sparse matrices. The novelty compared to previous benchmarks is that it is not limited by the need for a compiler. The D-SAB comprises of two parts: (1) the benchmark algorithms and (2) the sparse matrix set. The benchmark algorithms (operations) are categorized in (a) value related operations and (b) position related operations.
