The IBM Exascale Extrapolator (part of the IBM ExaBounds distribution) scales software profiles to a target scale, e.g., exascale. It takes as input a set of software profiles representative of a parameter space, the input parameters of the profiled software. The parameter sets for those profiles must be generated according to a design of experiments.

The IBM Appresentor in this repository automates this design of experiments and kicks off profiling runs with IBM Platform-Independent Software Analysis, generating the complete set of profiles required as an input to the IBM Exascale Extrapolator.
