Abstract :
This paper presents performance evaluation and analysis of well-known HPC applications and benchmarks running on low-power embedded platforms. The performance to power consumption ratios are compared to classical x86 systems. Scalability studies have been conducted on the Mont-Blanc Tibidabo cluster.We have also investigated optimization opportunities and pitfalls induced by the use of these new platforms, and proposed optimization strategies based on auto-tuning.
