Requirements for Data design and performance models likwid

Most of these small code examples are in the main directory. They are built with the Makefile in the main directory.

Listing1.c: 2D array allocation (Book: listing 4.1)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Listing1
  No output -- code is the example

Listing2.c: Allocating a contiguous 2D array (Book: listing 4.2)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Listing2
  No output -- code is the example

Listing3and4: Single contiguous memory allocation for 2D array (Book: listing 4.3 and 4.4)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Malloc2D
  No output -- code is the example

Listing5.c: Array of Structures (AOS) code (Book: listing 4.5)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Listing5
  No output -- code is the example

Listing6.c: Structure of Arrays (SOA) code (Book: listing 4.6)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Listing6
  No output -- code is the example

Listing7.c: Spatial coordinate Array of Structures (Book: listing 4.7)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Listing7
  No output -- code is the example

Listing8.c: Spatial coordinate Array of Structures (Book: listing 4.8)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Listing8
  No output -- code is the example

Listing9.cc: Spatial coordinate class example (Book: listing 4.9)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Listing9
  No output -- code is the example

Listing10.c: Hash Array of Structures (AOS) example (Book: listing 4.10)

  Build with make. Only generates an object file
  No program to run -- code is the example

Listing11.c: Hash Structure of Arrays (SOA) example (Book: listing 4.11)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Listing11
  No output -- code is the example

Listing12.c: Physics state Array of Structures (AOS) example (Book: listing 4.12)

  Build with make. Only generates an object file
  No program to run -- code is the example

Listing13.cc: Hash Structure of Arrays (SOA) example (Book: listing 4.13)

  Build with make
  Run the program ./Listing13
  No output -- code is the example

Stencil (Book: listing 4.14)

  In Stencil directory
  Build with make
  Run the program with ./stencil
  Measure the performance with
     likwid-perfctr -C 0 -g MEM_DP -m ./stencil
  Roofline plot is done with plot_roofline_stencil.py

MultiMatTest (Book: section 4.3)

  Build with cmake
  Run the program with ./MultiMatTest
  Performance numbers and expected values from performance model are output
