Performance Model (WYSIWYG)
•To state how ZPL performs operations, each operator’s work and communication needs are given … producing a performance model
–Performance is given in terms of the CTA
–Performance is relative, e.g. x is more expensive in communication than y
•Rules…
–A + B   -- Element-size array operations
•No communication
•Work comparable to C
•Work fully parallelizable, i.e. time = work/P
