Hello everyone! I am an undergrad at Louisiana Tech University, my degree focus is on Computer Science and I plan to graduate in November of this year. My SoC project is the OSCAR Bench project that will incorporate benchmarks into OSCAR. I would love to hear any suggestions, or vision you have for the project. I expect my proposal will change a good bit between now and August.
Some pressing thoughts I have had are: Where in OSCAR does OSCAR Bench belong? Should it be run as part of the 'test cluster' if the users downloads it? Would an additional GUI button be added if the user downloads my package? My thoughts are that the benchmark should be able to run independently of the Wizard, but with the requirement that the cluster be an OSCAR cluster, e.g., it has an OSCAR database. That could be removed as well, but I would like to build off OSCAR as much as possible, so I don't have to recreate any wheels. This is future thinking on my part, because I am not sure what data I may want that OSCAR has to offer (if any). Also what benchmarks are most relevant? If I work with the HPCC benchmark package, do I need to include HPL? From experience I have used the HPCC benchmark for about 4 months now, I have also built/used ATLAS to go with it. I noticed a post here regarding IO benchmarking, so I really want to narrow my focus down to a few specific benchmarks/packages. And the final thought was: Should all the benchmarks be clumped into 1 package, or should each be its own package. For instance: an Atlas package, a HPL package, a HPCC packages, etc..., Thanks again for the chance to work with you, James Elliott ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
