abstract = {Many libraries in the HPC field encapsulate sophisticated
algorithms with clear theoretical scalability expectations.
However, hardware constraints or programming bugs may
sometimes render these expectations inaccurate or even
plainly wrong. While algorithm engineers have already been
advocating the systematic combination of analytical
performance models with practical measurements for a very
long time, we go one step further and show how this
comparison can become part of automated testing procedures.
The most important applications of our method include
initial validation, regression testing, and benchmarking to
compare implementation and platform alternatives. Advancing
the concept of performance assertions, we verify asymptotic
scaling trends rather than precise analytical expressions,
relieving the developer from the burden of having to specify
and maintain very fine grained and potentially non-portable
expectations. In this way, scalability validation can be
continuously applied throughout the whole development cycle
with very little effort. Using MPI as an example, we show
how our method can help uncover non-obvious limitations of
both libraries and underlying platforms.},
