PGPVM2

Abstract

PGPVM is an enhancement package for PVM 3.3 that produces trace files for use with standard ParaGraph. PGPVM attempts to give an accurate portrayal of applications by minimizing the perturbation inherent with this type of monitoring. PGPVM does not utilize standard PVM tracing but instead its own buffered tracing techniques to provide more accurate monitoring information. Further, PGPVM provides a shellscript that performs some postprocessing and produces a file.trf, i.e. a standard ParaGraph trace event file. Tachyon removal and clock synchronization are performed during postprocessing when necessary. The new version PGPVM2, has been developed to be more flexible than PGPVM. It allows tracing any PVM program and provides new possibilities with respect to the interface between PVM and Paragraph.
