Performance prediction of massively parallel computation by Bayesian inference

Abstract

A performance prediction method for massively parallel computation is proposed. The method is based on performance modeling and Bayesian inference to predict elapsed time T as a function of the number of used nodes P (T=T(P)). The focus is on extrapolation for larger values of P from the perspective of application researchers. The proposed method has several improvements over the method developed in a previous paper, and application to real-symmetric generalized eigenvalue problem shows promising prediction results. The method is generalizable and applicable to many other computations.
