abstract = {In modern HPC systems, performance measurements are often
disturbed by noise. Because repeating measurements to
increase confidence in their results is costly, alternative
noise-resilient techniques are desirable. Therefore, we
implement alogical clock, which does not rely on real-time
measurements, in Score-P. We explore several methods to
model computational work with the clock increment, counting
OpenMP loop iterations, LLVM basic blocks/statements, or
hardware counters. We demonstrate the strengths and
weaknesses of using logical time stamps in a trace analysis
workflow with Score-P and Scalasca, by evaluating the
performanceproblems we can find in three MPI+OpenMP
mini-apps. By design, logical measurementsreliably show
algorithmic issues, such as load imbalance, but cannot
capture external aspects of program execution, for example
memory contention. In summary, logical-time based
measurements are a specialized but valuable addition to
theperformance analyst’s toolbox.},
