Analyzing Performance of Containerized Climate Models
in Singularity on a Supercomputer
Noah Oller Smith
Project Description
My project was about containerizing climate models in order to analyze performance in high performance computing. We decided to containerize parts of GEOS for this. We were hoping to see how a containerized version would do against a non-containerized version in running models, and what steps would need to be taken in order to improve performance. Singularity was used as the container program as it had access to docker's ecosystem of containers and it's easy to work with HPC tools.
