In this presentation we will describe accurate tools of co-design for Exascale systems and applications, centered around modeling of performance and power. Methodologies to be considered, developed in our Performance and Architecture Lab (PAL), are practical, accurate, and allow for the possibility of addressing the problem for full systems and applications. A particular emphasis will be placed on applying models to a variety of design and optimization uses for computing at extreme-scale.
