4. Background 4 What is XDMoD? Open XDMoD is an open source tool designed to audit and facilitate the utilization of supercomputers by providing a wide range of metrics on resources, including resource utilization, resource performance, and impact on scholarship and research. XDMoD is an acronym for "XSEDE Metrics on Demand” developed by the University of Buffalo for NSF's XSEDE under NSF grant OCI 1025159

7. XDMoD and Yellowstone Job Data 7 XDMoD runs on a dedicated server at NWSC, and that software was installed and configured by the SSG group Collaborated with CISL and SUNY at Buffalo developers to test a new shredder for ingesting LSF job termination accounting records. Shredded and ingested all of the LSF accounting data from Yellowstone, Geyser, and Caldera (November 2012 to the present) into open XDMoD. Total 7111011 job records are shredded. 6810231 jobs are ingested.

14. Enhancement of XDMoD for Yellowstone 14 Two new metrics (1) Job Size: Weighted By Core Hours (Core Count): The average NCAR job size weighted by Core hours. Defined as: sum(i = 0 to n){job i core count*job i core hours consumed }/sum(i = 0 to n){job i core hours consumed}.

17. Enhancement of XDMoD for Yellowstone 17 Two new metrics (2) Yellowstone %Scheduled: The percentage of resources scheduled to be utilized by jobs running on Yellowstone. Yellowstone Scheduled Utilization: The ratio of the total scheduled CPU hours to Yellowstone jobs over a given time period divided by the total CPU hours that the system could have potentially provided during that period.

18. Enhancement of XDMoD for Yellowstone 18 Yellowstone %Scheduled: (by job size) Many 144-node (only 1 core per node) jobs are running.

20. Additional Analyses of Yellowstone Job Data 20 Exploratory data analysis with ingested data using R  Question: What is the average job size and how has it varied over time?  Methods: Forecasting Using Exponential Smoothing Forecasting Using ARIMA Model Multiple Linear Regression K-Nearest Neighbor  Experiments and Results

21. Additional Analyses of Yellowstone Job Data 21  Methods: Exponential Smoothing a)Simple Exponential Smoothing An additive model with constant level and no seasonality b) Holt’s Exponential Smoothing An additive model with increasing or decreasing trend and no seasonality c) Holt-Winters Exponential Smoothing An additive model with increasing or decreasing trend and seasonality

22. Additional Analyses of Yellowstone Job Data 22  Methods: ARIMA Model Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) models include an explicit statistical model for the irregular component of a time series, that allows for non-zero autocorrelations in the irregular component. Building the Model: Step1: Differencing a Time Series (diff() function) Step2:Selecting a Candidate ARIMA Model(acf(),pacf() function) Step3:Forecasting Using an ARIMA Model

23. Additional Analyses of Yellowstone Job Data 23  Experiments Naive method Mean method Drift method (week and month) Simple Exponential Smoothing (SES) Holt’s Exponential Smoothing (HES) Holt-Winters Exponential Smoothing (HWES) ARIMA Model Multiple Linear Regression K-Nearest Neighbor Descriptions: Data: data in 2013, total days:364. Day 1-308 as training data, day 309-364 as testing data. Prediction error: the percentage that the difference of predicted value and true value taking of the true value. Naive, Mean and Drift methods serve as performance comparisons. ES methods are predicted using all days before the predicting day. (e.g. day 1-100 predict 101, day 1-101 predict 102,..)
