How To Install cube on CentOS 8

cube is CUBE Uniform Behavioral Encoding generic presentation component

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install cube on CentOS 8.

What is `cube`

CUBE (CUBE Uniform Behavioral Encoding) is a generic presentation component suitable for displaying a wide variety of performance metrics for parallel programs including MPI and OpenMP applications. CUBE allows interactive exploration of a multidimensional performance space in a scalable fashion. Scalability is achieved in two ways dimensions and aggregation across different dimensions. All performance metrics are uniformly accommodated in the same display and thus provide the ability to easily compare the effects of different kinds of performance behavior.

We can use yum or dnf to install cube on CentOS 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install cube.
