Charm++ parallel programming system

["Adamantini Peratikou" <Adamantini.Peratikou AT port.ac.uk>]

Hello again,

SOrry for keepon asking... im just  trying to review the performance of bluegene im runnig it under charm as i need it in parallel..so,

Hi Amanda,

Please cc charm.cs.uiuc.edu on your e-mails. This way the e-mails get archived and if I am not around or do not know the answer to something, someone else can help you.

You must be simulating some charm program using the BlueGene network model in BigNetSim. Is that correct?

You need to link that program with projections and run it as a simple program (even on a single processor is fine) to obtain the .sts file.

Did you download the projections tar ball from the downloads page? It has a projections script inside.

Hello Amanda,

You can download projections from here:

http://charm.cs.uiuc.edu/software

You'll also need a tproj.sts file which is not generated by BigNetSim. For this you need to run your application as a regular charm program linked with -tracemode projections. Once you have the sts file you'll need to change the number of processors in it to the number of target processors for which you did the BigNetSim simulation.
