HPL Benchmark

HPL is a High-Performance Linpack benchmark implementation. The code solves a uniformely random system of  linear equations and reports time and floating-point execution rate using a standard formula for operation count.

HPL is written in a portable ANSI C and requires an MPI implementation as well as either BLAS or VSIPL library. Such choice of software dependencies gives HPL both portability and performance.

HPL is often one of the first programs run on large computer installations to produce a result that can be submitted to TOP500.
