General & Technical Compute
General computing workloads, such as SPECrate2017*, characterize compute, memory, and software characteristics which serves as a yardstick for a very wide variety of server usages such as compression, compilation, AI, gene sequencing, and many other integer-based applications workloads. Technical computing is the application of the mathematical and computational principles of scientific computing to solve practical problems of industrial interest. The distinction between technical computing and scientific computing is similar to the distinction between high performance computing (HPC) and high-performance technical computing. Technical computing may involve the use of large-scale high-performance systems.
Technical Compute Benchmarks
Open MP Performance with SPEC OMP2012*
Containing a suite of 14 end-user applications that focuses on parallel computing performance using the OpenMP parallelism standard, this benchmark is based on compute-intensive applications that emphasize the performance of the computer processor, memory architecture, parallel support libraries, and the compilers. The performance metric shown is calculated from the geometric mean of 14 normalized ratios when the applications are compiled with consistent compiler options across all programs of a given language (eight use Fortran, five use C, and one uses C++).
MPI Performance with SPEC MPI2007*
Containing a suite of 18 end-user applications that evaluate MPI-parallel, floating point, compute-intensive performance across a wide range of cluster and SMP hardware. This benchmark is based on compute-intensive applications that emphasize the performance of the computer processor, memory architecture, communication interconnect, the compilers, and the shared file system and are developed in compliance with Message-Passing Interface (MPI) 2.1 standard. The performance metric shown is calculated from the geometric mean of 18 normalized ratios when the applications are compiled with consistent compiler options across all programs of a given language (including Fortran, C, and C++).
