Abstract: Simple models and analysis methods, such as Cache-Aware Roofline Model, were proposed in order to provide first-order insights regarding application execution, allowing software developers and hardware engineers to derive the most suitable optimization techniques to extract the maximum potential of multi-core architectures. In this talk, a set of Cache-Aware Roofline Models are presented, aiming at providing a more accurate characterization of real-world applications in computer systems. To show the potential of the proposed models, a set of applications from Exascale Computing Project Benchmark Suite are characterized with the proposed models and its insights are validated against current state-of-the-art solutions.
