Abstract— We developed an automated environment to measure the memory access behavior of applications on high performance clusters. Code optimization for processor caches is cruc...
Achieving good performance on a modern machine with a multi-level memory hierarchy, and in particular on a machine with software-managed memories, requires precise tuning of progr...
