Analyzing Performance Properties Collected by the PerSyst Scalable HPC Monitoring Tool

The ability to understand how a scientific application is executed on a large HPC system is of great importance in allocating resources within the HPC data center. In this paper, we describe how we used system performance data to identify: execution patterns, possible code optimizations and improvements to the system monitoring. We also identify candidates for employing machine learning techniques to predict the performance of similar scientific codes.
