Abstract [eng] |
Parallel program execution is often used to overcome the constraints of processing speed and memory size when executing complex and time-consuming algorithms. The downside to this approach is the increased overall complexity of programs and their implementations. Parallel execution introduces a new class of software bugs and performance shortcomings, that are usually difficult to trace using traditional methods and tools. Hence, new tools and methods need to be introduced, which deal specifically with problems encountered in parallel programs. The goal of this project is the development of MPI-based parallel program performance monitoring tool and research into the ways this tool can be used for measuring, comparing and improving the performance of target programs. |
