Session

DescriptionThis workshop brings together HPC researchers, operators, and vendors from around the globe to present and discuss state-of-the-art HPC system testing methodologies, tools, benchmarks, procedures, and best practices. The increasing complexity of HPC architectures and growing need to leverage HPC for integrated workflows necessitates more extensive testing than ever in order to thoroughly evaluate the status of the system after installation or a software upgrade and ensure proper operation before it is transitioned to production. Different methodologies are used to evaluate systems during their lifetime, not only at the beginning during the installation, but also during maintenance windows and alongside regular operations. This workshop provides a venue to present and discuss the latest HPC system testing technologies and methodologies. The event will include an opening talk focused on current HPC system testing topics, followed by a series of paper presentations from peer-reviewed accepted submissions, and concluding with a panel discussion.
