The PARADYN Parallel Performance Tools

ABSTRACT

PARADYN is a tool for measuring and analyzing the performance of parallel and distributed programs.

PARADYN can measure the performance of large, long running programs and provides facilities for helping to automatically locate performance problems in parallel programs.

PARADYN operates on executable (a.out or .exe) files by dynamically inserting measurement code while the program is running.

PARADYN can measure programs running on SunOS, Solaris (SPARC and x86), AIX, SP2, and Windows/NT, or heterogeneous combinations of these systems.

PARADYN can also handle PVM on these platforms and MPL, MPI, and PVM under POE on the SP2.

More information is available from the PARADYN home page: http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~paradyn

This page will provide information about the software release, plus papers and manuals on the PARADYN Tools. If you have any questions, please send e-mail to paradyn@cs.wisc.edu
