SNU NPB 2019 Suite

Overview

SNU NPB 2019 Suite is a set of the NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) implemented in C, OpenMP C, OpenCL, and CUDA. Current SNU NPB 2019 Suite consists of four different implementations:

  • NPB-SER-C
    This is a serial C version of the NPB code. It consists of 10 applications - BT, CG, DC, EP, FT, IS, LU, MG, SP, and UA. This C version is derived from the serial Fortran code in "NPB3.3-SER" developed by NAS (except DC and IS).
  • NPB-OMP-C
    This is an OpenMP C version of the NPB code. It consists of 10 applications - BT, CG, DC, EP, FT, IS, LU, MG, SP, and UA. This OpenMP C version is derived from the OpenMP Fortran code in "NPB3.3-OMP" developed by NAS (except DC and IS).
  • NPB-OCL
    This is an OpenCL version of the NPB code for a single device and multiple devices. It consists of 8 applications - BT, CG, EP, FT, IS, LU, MG, and SP. This OpenCL version is derived from the OpenMP code in "NPB3.3-OMP" developed by NAS. This version runs with a single OpenCL compute device.
  • NPB-CUDA
    This is an CUDA version of the NPB code for a single device and multiple devices. It consists of 8 applications - BT, CG, EP, FT, IS, LU, MG, and SP. This CUDA version is derived from the OpenMP code in "NPB3.3-OMP" developed by NAS. This version runs with a single CUDA compute device.
