This report presents a methodology for measuring the performance of supercomputers. It includes 13 Fortran programs that total over 50,000 lines source code. They represent applications in several areas engi neering and scientific computing, many cases codes are currently being used by computational re search development groups. We also present PERFECT standard, set guidelines allow portability to types machines. Furthermore, we some measures method ology recording sharing results among...

This paper outlines the content and performance of ScaLAPACK, a collection mathematical software for linear algebra computations on distributed memory computers. The importance developing standards computational message passing interfaces is discussed. We present different components building blocks indicate difficulties inherent in producing correct codes networks heterogeneous processors. Finally, this briefly describes future directions ScaLAPACK library concludes by suggesting...

Gene expression is regulated by transcription factors that interact with cis -regulatory elements. Predicting these elements from sequence data has proven difficult. We describe here a successful computational search for direct in particular temporal-spatial pattern the Drosophila embryo, based on single well characterized enhancer model. The fly genome was searched to identify containing same combination of as those found Experimental evaluation results demonstrates our method can correctly...

Abstract Recent relativistic calculations on low energy elastic scattering of electrons from atoms are reviewed. Two aspects emphasized : mathematical transformations and numerical methods used in the solution Dirac equation summation partial wave series ; results calculations, particular behaviour cross sections spin polarizations for different atoms, energies incident electron, approximations. The effects screening nucleus by atomic electrons, electron exchange (including use approximate...

This article discusses the core factorization routines included in ScaLAPACK library. These allow and solution of a dense system linear equations via LU, QR, Cholesky. They are implemented using block cyclic data distribution, built de facto standard kernels for matrix vector operations (BLAS its parallel counterpart PBLAS) message passing communication (BLACS). In implementing routines, major objective was to parallelize corresponding sequential LAPACK BLAS, BLACS, PBLAS as building blocks,...

Calculations on electron impact excitation of the n=1 and n=2 states hydrogenic ions have been made for atomic numbers Z ranging from 2 to 100 in a Coulomb-Born approximation which Dirac wavefunctions are used instead more usual Schrodinger ones. All one-body relativistic effects included, two-body effects, mutual spin-orbit coupling but not magnetic or retardation effects. Relativistic found contribute 10% cross sections most transitions at Z=25 up factor 6 Z=100. The conservation total...

Differential cross sections and spin polarizations for 3·5-500 eV electrons scattered from mercury have been calculated by the numerical solution of relativistic Hartree-Fock equations, thus including effect exchange but ignoring distortion atom correlation effects. At upper end energy range inclusion produces small significant changes which bring results into very good agreement with experiment. lower energies some discrepancies appear, even at 3·5 qualitative is obtained.
