HPC Challenge Benchmark at SC06
2006-11-14

The HPC Challenge (HPCC) benchmark suite has been funded by the DARPA High Productivity Computing Systems (HPCS) program to help define the performance boundaries of future Petascale computing systems. HPCC is a suite of tests that examine the performance of high-end architectures using kernels with memory access patterns more challenging than those of the High Performance LINPACK (HPL) benchmark used in the Top500 list.
