Seismic simulation using Paradigm GeoDepth Epos* 4
Benchmark description
GeoDepth CSFWMig* workload
GeoDepth* is a fully-integrated system for 2D/3D velocity model building and seismic imaging. It enables the construction of a variety of 3D velocity/depth model types, from pre-processed, pre-stack marine/land seismic data. High-resolution imaging and reconstruction of seismic reflectivity. Metric: number of shots processed per hour.
Configuration details Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series
4S seismic processing and imaging performance on Paradigm GeoDepth* workload
Comparison based on 4S Intel® Xeon® processor X7560 based server platform compared to an existing baseline 2S Intel® Xeon® processor X5570 based server platform measured by Intel labs and reviewed/approved by Paradigm* as of 29 March 2010. Number of shorts processed per hour (higher is better). See www.pdgm.com/ for more information.
