Abstract
Aiming at keeping performance portability of practical applications even in the exascale computing era, this paper presents a concept of HPC refactoring, and the design of the HPC refactoring catalog. The HPC refactoring catalog provides a guideline to keep performance portability across different supercomputing systems based on the quantitative analysis of practical simulations. In this paper, our recent research activities for designing the HPC refactoring catalog are introduced.
