....interchange, and the achieved throughput, is computed like in the point to point case. 8 3. 3 Parallel Applications In order to assess the behavior of the SP2 when running complete applications, we have selected four benchmarks (MG, LU, SP and BT) from the NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) version 2 [Bai95], a shallow water modelling code (SWM) from the ParkBench suite of benchmarks [WF95] and a parallel simulator (PS) developed by our group [Mig95] Next we briefly describe these programs. Version 2 of the NPB can be obtained in source code form (in contrast with version 1) written in Fortran 77 ....
....of equations resulting from an approximately factored implicit finite difference discretization of the Navier Stokes equations. BT solves block triangular systems of 5x5 blocks, while SP solves scalar pentadiagonal systems resulting from full diagonalization of the approximately factored scheme [Bai95]. SWM is a parallel algorithm testbed that solves the non linear shallow water equations on a rotating sphere using the spectral transform method. It has been programmed, using the message passing paradigm, in Fortran 77 plus MPI, and forms part of the ParkBench benchmark suite. The developers ....
