Reproducibility: Performance Evaluation of MemXCT on Azure CycleCloud Platform.

Memory-Centric X-ray Computational Tomography(CT) is an iterative reconstruction technique that trades compute simplifications with higher memory accesses. MemXCT implements a sparse matrix-vector multiplication(SpMV) with multi-stage buffering and two-level pseudo-Hilbert ordering for optimization. Motivated by the need to validate conclusions from previous work, we reproduce the numerical results, the algorithm’s performance, and the scaling behavior of the algorithms as the number of MPI processes increases on Azure. Digital artifacts from these experiments are available at: 10.5281/zenodo.5598108 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
