Description:

parsecpy 1.0.6

Python library to interface with PARSEC 2.1 and 3.0 Benchmark,
controlling execution triggers and processing the output measures times
data to calculate speedups. Further, the library can generate a
mathematical model of speedup of a parallel application, based on
“Particles Swarm Optimization” or “Coupled Simulating Annealing”
algorithms to discover the parameters that minimize a “objective
function”. The objective function can be build with a module python
passed as argument to library on execution script.

Features

Run parsec application with multiple input sizes and, optionally,
repet the execution to better find outs.
Process a group of Parsec 2.1 or 3.0 logs files, generates from a
shell direct execution of parsec.
Manipulate of resulting data from logs process or online execution,
obtained by module run script itself.
Calculate the speedups and efficency of applications, if it’s
possible, using the measured times of execution.
provide a “PSO” algorithm to model the speedup of a parallel
application with regression process.
Provide a “CSA” algorithm to model the speedup of a parallel
application with regression process.
Calculate statistics scores of model data using cross validate
process.

Prerequisites

Installation
$ pip3 install parsecpy

Usage

Class ParsecData
Class used to generate the measured times structure, to save such data
in a “json” file, to load a previously saved json data file, to
calculate the speedup or efficiency of application and to plot 2D or 3D
graph of time, speedup or efficiency versus the number of cores and
frequency or input size.
>>> from parsecpy import ParsecData
>>> d = ParsecData('path_to_datafile')
>>> print(d) # Print summary informations
>>> d.times() # Show a Dataframe with mesures times
>>> d.speedups() # Show a Dataframe with speedups
>>> d.plot3D(d.speedups(), title='Speedup', zlabel='speedup') # plot a 3D Plot : speedups x number of cores x input sizes
>>> d.plot3D(d.efficiency(), title='Efficiency', zlabel='efficiency') # plot a 3D Plot : speedups x number of cores x input sizes

Class ParsecModel
Class used to generate the result of modeling of the application, using any of supported algorithms (PSO, CSA or
SVR). The class allows to save the modeling results, load previously saved model data, and plot the model data
together with the real measurements.

>>> from parsecpy import ParsecModel
>>> m = ParsecModel('path_to_model_datafile')
>>> print(m) # Print summary informations
>>> print(m.measure) # Show a Dataframe with mesures speedups
>>> print(m.y_model) # Show a Dataframe with modeled speedups
>>> print(m.error) # Show the Mean Squared Error between measured and modeled speedup
>>> m.plot3D(title='Speedup', showmeasures=True) # plot a 3D Plot with measurements and model data

Class ParsecLogsData
>>> from parsecpy import ParsecLogsData
>>> l = ParsecLogsData('path_to_folder_with_logfiles')
>>> print(l) # Print summary informations
>>> l.times() # Show a Dataframe with mesures times
>>> l.speedups() # Show a Dataframe with speedups
>>> l.plot3D() # plot a 3D Plot : speedups x number of cores x input sizes

Class Swarm
>>> from parsecpy import data_detach, Swarm, ParsecModel
>>> parsec_date = ParsecData("my_output_parsec_file.dat")
>>> out_measure = parsec_exec.speedups()
>>> meas = data_detach(out_measure)
>>> overhead = False
>>> kwargsmodel = {'overhead': overhead}
>>> sw = Swarm([0,0,0,0], [2.0,1.0,1.0,2.0], kwargs=kwargsmodel, threads=10,
size=100, maxiter=1000, modelpath=/root/mymodelfunc.py,
x_meas=meas['x'], y_meas=meas['y'])
>>> error, solution = sw.run()
>>> model = ParsecModel(bsol=solution,
berr=error,
ymeas=out_measure,
modelcodesource=sw.modelcodesource,
modelexecparams=sw.get_parameters())
>>> scores = model.validate(kfolds=10)
>>> print(model.sol)
>>> print(model.scores)

Class CoupledAnnealer
>>> import numpy as np
>>> import random
>>> from parsecpy import data_detach, Swarm, ParsecModel
>>> parsec_date = ParsecData("my_output_parsec_file.dat")
>>> out_measure = parsec_exec.speedups()
>>> meas = data_detach(out_measure)
>>> overhead = False
>>> kwargsmodel = {'overhead': overhead}
>>> initial_state = initial_state = np.array([np.random.uniform(size=5)
for _ in range(10)])
>>> csa = CoupledAnnealer(n_annealers=10, initial_state=initial_state,
tgen_initial=0.01, tacc_initial=0.1,
threads=10, steps=1000, update_interval=100, dimension=5,
args=argscsa, modelpath=/root/mymodelfunc.py
x_meas=meas['x'], y_meas=meas['y'])
>>> error, solution = csa.run()
>>> model = ParsecModel(bsol=solution,
berr=error,
measure=out_measure,
modelcodesource=csa.modelcodesource,
modelexecparams=csa.get_parameters())
>>> scores = model.validate(kfolds=10)
>>> print(model.sol)
>>> print(model.scores)

Requirements for model python module
The python module file provided by user should has the following
requirements:

To PSO model, should has the constraint function as following:
def constraint_function(par, x_meas, **kwargs): # your code #
arguments: # par - particle object # kwargs - Dict with extra
parameters: # kwargs[‘overhead’] - boolean value (if overhead should
be considerable) # analize the feasable of particles position
(searched parameters) # return True or False, depend of requirements
return boolean_value

To CSA model, should has probe function as following:
def probe_function(par, tgen): # your code # arguments: # par -
actual parameters values # tgen - actual temperature of generation #
generate a new probe solution # return a list os parameters of probe
solution return probe_solution
