Adding a Benchmark

The following system-independent specification is required for each ${Benchmark1}:

• package.py is a Spack specification that defines how to build and install ${Benchmark1}.

• application.py is a Ramble specification that defines the ${Benchmark1} input and parameters.

During benchpark setup the user selects ${Benchmark1} to run as the following:

benchpark setup ${Benchmark1}/${ProgrammingModel1} ${System1} </output/path/to/experiments_root>

By default, Benchpark will use ${Benchmark1} specifications (package.py and application.py) provided in the Spack and Ramble repos. It is possible to overwrite the benchmark specifications provided in the Spack and Ramble repos; see Benchmark not yet in Spack/Ramble for details.
