Challenge: Benchmarking and regression testing of a Quantum Monte Carlo Simulation application in HPC system

Open for EUMaster4HPC Master students Cohort 2 only

 

The objective of this project is the implementation of a benchmarking and regression testing framework for a Quantum Monte Carlo simulation package in HPC systems. The project targets a specific application, the QMeCha package, which has been open sourced recently. The application is distributed with a set of tests, but the organisation of the tests into various groups to facilitate development and deployment of the application, and the porting of tests into new types of systems (ARM based processors) remains an open problem.
