Abstract: Characterizing shared-memory applications provides insight to design efficient systems, and provides awareness to identify and correct application performance bottlenecks. Configuration dependent analysis is often used to simulate detailed application traces on a particular hardware model. The communication traffic and computation workload generated by the application trace is used as a characterization of this application. This paper demonstrates that configuration independent analysis is a... (Update)
