Perfect Benchmarks decomposition and performance on VAX multiprocessors
Abstract
This paper presents the methods for decomposition and the performance of the Perfect Benchmark suite on two VAX multiprocessors. Our results indicate that by several efficient decomposition techniques we were able to obtain significant performance gains on both VAX multiprocessors relative to a uniprocessor case. We propose a methodology that can be applied for decomposing other existing scientific and engineering applications and provide guidelines for auto-decomposing compiler improvements. Finally, we discuss and quantify the effect of different cache designs on the multiprocessor performance.
