How to evaluate the performance of a parallel program
The development of parallel programming created the need of performance metrics and a software tool to evaluate the performance of a parallel algorithm in order to decide whether its use is convenient or not. Indeed, the focus of parallel computing is to solve large problems in a relatively short time. The factors that contribute to the achievement of this objective are, for example, the type of hardware used, the degree of parallelism of the problem, and which parallel programming model is adopted. To facilitate this, analysis of basic concepts was introduced, which compares the parallel algorithm obtained from the original sequence. The performance is achieved by analyzing and quantifying ...
