This is a benchmark tool for measuring UDP/TCP/MPI communication performance 
in High Performance Computing (HPC) environments. 

Compilation

Linux : 
	[~hpcbench/ @node1] % make
SunOS : uncomment the "#LIB = -lsocket -lnsl" line for each makefile in 
        ~hpcbench/[udp/tcp/mpi] dirctories, then
	[~hpcbench/ @node1] % make

Testing

1. UDP latency/throughput tests: 
	[~hpcbench/udp/ @node1] % ./udpserver &
        [~hpcbench/udp/ @node2] % ./udptest -h node1 
   Refer to ~hpcbench/udp/README for more information about the UDP benchmark
2. TCP latency/throughput tests:
	[~hpcbench/tcp/ @node1] % ./tcpserver &
        [~hpcbench/tcp/ @node2] % ./tcptest -h node1 
   Refer to ~hpcbench/tcp/README for more information about the TCP benchmark
3. MPI latency/throughput tests:
	[~hpcbench/mpi/ @node1] % mpirun -np 2 mpitest
   Refer to ~hpcbench/MPI/README for more information about the MPI benchmark
 
Test scripts

There are several test scripts in ~hpcbench/testscript directory, for scaning 
a set of parameters of throughput tests between two nodes. For example:
	[~hpcbench/testscript/ @node1] % ./test.sh tcp node5 node6 
This will examine the throughputs with different configuration (buffer size, 
stream and ping-pong, blocking and nonblocking mode, etc.) between two processes,
inside both node5 and node6, and between node5 and node6. Similarly, 
	[~hpcbench/testscript/ @node1] % ./test.sh all node5 node6 
will test all three (UDP/TCP/MPI) protocols automatically.

The scripts of test.lsf and test-all.lsf are designed for HPC's LSF queuing 
system. Please refer to ~hpcbench/testscript/README for more information.
