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. 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. They represent implementation efforts performed by personnel in both the NAS Applied Research Branch of NASA Ames and in other organizations.
