Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 2840))

Abstract

SKaMPI is a benchmark for measuring the performance of MPI implementations. Some examples of surprising behaviour of MPI libraries are presented. These result in certain new requirements for MPI benchmarks and will lead to major extensions in the new SKaMPI-Bench.
