Abstract
A method, apparatus and computer program product for mapping and executing an application on a multi-processor system is presented. At least one array to be considered for distribution among processors of said multi-processor system is indicated. The application is mapped according to a performance model associated with benchmark performance data of a parallel library on a parallel computer architecture. Then either the application is executed on the multi-processor system, or the application is simulated using a specified machine model for a multiprocessor system. Feedback information is then provided to influence architecture parameters for a multiprocessor system.
