Rules of the final stage
1.The use of optimization methods specific to certain parameters or input data sets is
strictly forbidden.
2.If any changes are made to the algorithm, the revised version must maintain mathematical
equivalence to the original.
3.Violation of any rule mentioned above will result in a zero score being assigned for the
corresponding task.
4.Properly constructing the cluster is essential. Any damage to the server may incur a
penalty of up to 20 points for the team, as determined by the ASC24 Committee.
Performance Optimization
I. HPL performance optimization:
1.Platform requirement: The runtime power consumption must remain under 3
KW. Failure to
comply will result in the invalidation of the current task.
2.Goal: Obtain the correct results while achieving the highest performance.

II. Performance optimization of HPCG:
1.Platform requirement: The runtime power consumption must remain under 3
KW. Failure to
comply will result in the invalidation of the current task.
2.About run time: The runtime of HPCG (version 3.0) must be a minimum of
1800 seconds (30
minutes), as reported in the output file. The Quick Path option is not permitted.

III. Performance optimization of OpenCAEPoro:
1.Platform requirement: The power restriction of the test platform is 3 KW.
If the power
consumption exceeds 3 KW, the results of the current task will be invalid.
2.Goal: The OpenCAEPoro challenge shares a similar objective with the
preliminary round. The
ASC24 committee will announce several OpenCAEPoro workloads during the finals. Each
workload's results must pass correctness checking, and the objective is to minimize OBJECT
TIME. It's important to note that modifying any code related to the method parameters is
prohibited, and all parameters in the input files must remain unchanged.

IV. Performance optimization of GoMars:
1.Platform requirement: The power restriction of the test platform is 3 KW.
If the power
consumption exceeds 3 KW, the results of the current task will be invalid.
2.Goal: GoMars is a novel global open planetary atmospheric model designed
for Mars. It
offers insights into Martian meteorological conditions crucial for landing operations. The
ASC24 committee will introduce various GoMars workloads during the finals. The results of
each workload must undergo correctness checking, and the objective is to minimize the
runtime of the GoMars application. Please note that the provided link only contains the
dynamic core of GoMars, whereas additional codes for physical processes may be included in
the final version.

V. Performance optimization of the Mystery Application:
1.Platform requirement: The power restriction of the test platform is 3 KW.
If the power
consumption exceeds 3 KW, the results of current task will be invalid.
2.Goal: The ASC24 committee will announce several Mystery Application
workloads during the
finals. The results of each workload must pass correctness checking, and the objective is to
minimize runtime.
VI. Performance optimization of LLM inference:
1.Platform requirement: The power limit for the test platform is 3 KW. Any
power consumption exceeding this threshold during the contest will result in the
invalidation of the current task's results.
2.Goal: The LLM inference challenge shares a similar goal with the
preliminary round. AquilaChat2-34B will be used in the final round and the datasets used for
evaluation will be disclosed on site. Besides, it is required to utilize 4bit or less
quantization for inference acceleration during the final and the baseline quantization
method is 4bit bitsandbytes. Moreover, the overall accuracy rather than only output length
of dataset results will be taken into account, which should be controlled within a maximum
error of 1.5% compared to the BF16 precision baseline.

Team Presentation
1.Each team is required to present their results using PowerPoint (PPT) slides. The
presentation order for each team will be determined by a draw. English must be used in both
the PPT slides and in the presentations delivered by up to two student speakers.
2.The presentation must not exceed 7 minutes in duration. Any additional time will result in
a reduction of your score accordingly. Following the presentation, judges will have
approximately 3 minutes to ask questions.
3.The evaluation committee will assess the presentation of each team.
4.The team advisor is welcome to observe her/his team's presentation session.
