Kastors

Participants : Olivier Aumage, Nathalie Furmento, Samuel Pitoiset, Samuel Thibault.

• The Kastors software is a suite of benchmarks for testing the performance of OpenMP compilers on codes making use of the new dependent tasks OpenMP 4.0 constructs. It is ported and maintained as part of the Inria development action "ADT K'Star " jointly managed by Inria teams MOAIS (Inria Montbonnot) and RUNTIME (Inria Bordeaux - Sud-Ouest). It is constituted of well known computing kernels that have been ported on the OpenMP 4.0 dependent tasks model. The Kastors suite has been introduced to the OpenMP community during the IWOMP 2014 conference [32] .
