TO PREDICTION OF PERFORMANCE IN PARALLEL ALGORITHMS

With the availability of powerful PC and networking devices, the recent trend in parallel computing is to connect a number of individual workstations to solve computation intensive tasks in parallel way on connected class of workstations. Current trends in high performance computing are to use networks of workstations as a cheaper alternative to traditionally used massively parallel multiprocessors or supercomputers. The individual workstations as parallel computers based on modern symmetric multicore implemented within workstation. To exploit the parallel processing capability of such cluster, the application program must be paralleled. On application ex. we demonstrate the various influences in process of performance prediction modelling and the consequences for their parallel implementations.
