Snapshot of the dynamic patterns of read behavior in a parallel version of software to calculate electron-molecule cross-sections using a 128-processor Intel Paragon at Caltech's Concurrent Supercomputing Consortium. The axes are file open duration, file seek duration, and file read duration. The locations of the octahedra are the current values of each processor's performance metric. History ribbons show the last N positions for three select octahedra (red is most recent). The Pablo software was used to produce this image. |
