PPHPC Java vs OpenCL-CPU Datasets

Overview

These datasets contain the results from a performance comparison between Java and OpenCL/CPU implementations of the PPHPC model.

The datasets are used in the following study:

Fachada, N. and Rosa, A.C., Assessing the feasibility of OpenCL CPU implementations for agent-based simulations. IWOCL 2017: Proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on OpenCL, Article No. 4, 2017, https://doi.org/10.1145/3078155.3078174

Experiment reproducibility

The datasets were generated with the java.sh and cpu_l1.sh scripts under the following versions of the supporting software:

cf4ocl v2.1.0

cl_ops v0.2.0
