An Agenda for Improved Evaluation of Supercomputer Performance
National Research Council · National Academies Press eBooks · 1986
A report recently issued by the National Research Council, the principal operating agency of the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering to serve government and other organizations, points out that current methods for evaluating supercomputer performance are not fully satisfactory and that better approaches need to be developed and used. The improved methods should have predictive validity for a wide range of computer architectures and applications. The 58-page report, entitled ''An Agenda for Improved Evaluation of Supercomputer Performance,'' is by the Committee on Supercomputer Performance and Development and is available from the Energy Engineering Board, Commission on Engineering and Technical Systems, National Research Council.
