3. WP2 Objectives 1.Specification of the use case applications based on industrial requirements 2.Implementation of parallel versions of applications using methods and tools developed in WP3 and WP4 3.Specification of evaluation strategy and metrics ensuring large test coverage Because of its crucial position in the project, WP2 also has strong collaboration objectives.

9. Task 2.3: Specification of evaluation criteria Objective “Specification of evaluation strategy and metrics ensuring large test coverage” Participants have updated the evaluation criteria against which the progress of PaPP will be measured. Task output: deliverable “D2.5 Updated evaluation plan and complete evaluation strategy”. 2014-10-28ARTEMIS PaPP Review 20149

10. PaPP objectives: criteria & evaluation PO 1: Efficient and accurate performance models of applications executing on computational platforms. Success criteria: The models can capture performance of an application executing on a new platform within a factor of 15% given enough information about architecture and application. Evaluation: How the performance has been improved per se and compared to prediction models Radar-based object detection and Image data compression use cases have reported performance improvements for parallellized versions of the use case applications 2014-10-28ARTEMIS PaPP Review 201410

11. PaPP objectives: criteria & evaluation PO 2: Portability of performance across at least two hardware platforms for the application use cases. Success criteria: The methodology and tools developed in the project have been used to demonstrate that for the application use-cases portable performance as predicted by the performance models is achieved. Evaluation: At least one of the demonstrators (Multimedia) will have its composing use cases compiled and tested for two different architectures and performance compared via valgrind profiling (see D2.4) and the associated metrics. 2014-10-28ARTEMIS PaPP Review 201411

12. PaPP objectives: criteria & evaluation PO 3: Portability of the software stack across application domains. Success criteria: The PaPP software stack has been used across at least two application domains in its entirety. Evaluation: The three different demonstrators (Multimedia, Space and Mobile Communications) use different architectures (ARM, SPARC andx86) and the usage of the toolchain is envisaged for all of them. 2014-10-28ARTEMIS PaPP Review 201412

13. PaPP objectives: criteria & evaluation PO 4: Software developer productivity is increased. Success criteria: PaPP methodology and tools are used to reduce development time as perceived by application use- case providers. Evaluation: The main measures for this criteria will be establishing a baseline for one developer using non-PaPP tools for a given task and then repeating with a PaPP-aware developer. Variablity tool applied in Mobile Surveillance use case has reported effort decrease in build and configuration task In Image data compression use case, usage of OpenMP has increased productivity 2014-10-28ARTEMIS PaPP Review 201413

14. PaPP objectives: criteria & evaluation SO 1: Improved resource management. Success criteria not defined Evaluation: Mobile surveillance has applied successfully PaPP adaptability approach on the energy management. Energy awareness and management is also a topic of interest for Radar- based object detection use case which also deals with battery-driven devices. 2014-10-28ARTEMIS PaPP Review 201414

15. PaPP objectives: criteria & evaluation SO 2: The ability to create reusable parallel software components, both domain specific and domain independent. Success criteria not defined Evaluation: Software components used in the Multimedia and Mobile Communications Use Cases are expected to make their way into commercial tools. Effort will be put into the reusability aspects of these and it will be investigated how using such components affect the larger systems which may not be using PaPP. 2014-10-28ARTEMIS PaPP Review 201415

18. Plans to achieve Y3 objectives Increase cooperation Between work packages Participation of other WPs in WP2 meetings in order to transfer information about use cases and their requirements to WPs responsible for PaPP methods and tools Between WP2 participants In order to unify use case descriptions and feedback to other WPs Tighter cooperation improves quality of deliverables Ensure progress and also cooperation Periodic meetings throughout the year Not just for deliverable preparation For ensuring that communication between WP participants is working 2014-10-28ARTEMIS PaPP Review 201418
