NAS Parallel Benchmark Results 1295

The NAS Parallel Benchmarks have been developed at NASA Ames Research Center to study the performance of parallel supercomputers. The eight benchmark problems are specified in a ‘‘pencil and paper ’’ fashion. In other words, the complete details of the problem to be solved are given in a technical document, and except for a few restrictions, benchmarkers are free to select the language constructs and implementation techniques best suited for a particular system. This paper presents performance results of various systems using the NAS Parallel Benchmarks. These results represent the best results that have been reported to us for the specific systems listed. 1. Subhash Saini is an employe of MRJ Inc.
