This milestone 1) exercised a broad set of performance profiling and analysis tools, including tools whose development has been promoted by the ASC program; 2) exercised the tools on two different SNL ASC codes, one Sierra code (Sierra/Aria, a C++ codebase) and one RAMSES code (ITS, a Fortran codebase); and 3) exercised the tools on multiple platforms, including the CTS-1 (e.g., Serrano) and ATS-1 Trinity (e.g., Mutrino) platforms. The milestone generated a plethora of strong and weak scaling, trend and profile data for multiple versions and problem cases for each of the two codes. A wealth of experience was gained with the various tools that included identification of problems, an improved understanding of feature sets, enhanced usage documentation, and insights for future tool-development. Results are provided from a large number and variety of performance analysis runs with the target codes, together with instructions for how to make use of the tools with the codes.

The 9/30/2009 ASC Level 2 Scalable Analysis Tools for Sensitivity Analysis and UQ (Milestone 3160) contains feature recognition capability required by the user community for certain verification and validation tasks focused around sensitivity analysis and uncertainty quantification (UQ). These feature recognition capabilities include crater detection, characterization, and analysis from CTH simulation data; the ability to call fragment and crater identification code from within a CTH simulation; and the ability to output fragments in a geometric format that includes data values over the fragments. The feature recognition capabilities were tested extensively on sample and actual simulations. In addition, a number of stretch criteria were met including the ability to visualize CTH tracer particles and the ability to visualize output from within an S3D simulation.
