    Efficient NAS Benchmark Kernels with C++ Parallel Programming

    No full text
    Benchmarking is a way to study the performance of new architectures and parallel programming frameworks. Well-established benchmark suites such as the NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) comprise legacy codes that still lack portability to C++ language. As a consequence, a set of high-level and easy-to-use C++ parallel programming frameworks cannot be tested in NPB. Our goal is to describe a C++ porting of the NPB kernels and to analyze the performance achieved by different parallel implementations written using the Intel TBB, OpenMP and FastFlow frameworks for Multi-Cores. The experiments show an efficient code porting from Fortran to C++ and an efficient parallelization on average
