Overview:

The TOP500 project ranks and describes the 500 most powerful publicly known computer systems in the world. The list has been compiled twice a year since 1993 and aims to provide a reliable basis for tracking and detecting trends in high-performance computing. Rankings are based on High-Performance LINPACK (HPL), a portable implementation of the LINPACK benchmark for distributed-memory computers. This white paper provides guidance for deploying and optimizing a Windows HPC Server 2008-based cluster. It also describes how to run the HPL benchmark to both verify that the cluster is operating well and to tune the cluster for optimal performance. Finally, the paper explains how to submit a cluster to the TOP500 List.
