Towards Detailed Exascale Application Analysis - Selective Monitoring and Visualisation

摘要

We introduce novel ideas involving aspect-oriented instrumentation, Multi-Faceted Program Monitoring, as well as novel techniques for a selective and detailed event-based application performance analysis, with an eye toward exascale. We give special attention to the spatial, temporal, and level-of-detail aspects of the three important phases of compile-time filtering, application execution, and runtime filtering. We use an event-based monitoring approach to allow selected and focused performance analysis.
