This article introduces a benchmark application for seismic modeling using finite difference method, which is namedMiniMod, a mini application for seismic modeling. The purpose is to provide a benchmark suite that is, on one hand easy to build and adapt to the state of the art in programming models and changing high performance hardware landscape. On the other hand, the intention is to have a proxy application to actual production geophysical exploration workloads for Oil Gas exploration, and other geosciences applications based on the wave equation. From top to bottom, we describe the design concepts, algorithms, code structure of the application, and present the benchmark results on different current computer architectures.
