Panorama

Abstract
Panorama is a graphical debugger for parallel programs that was designed to be both retargetable and extensible. Retargetable means that it should be easy to make Panorama work with a variety of parallel computers. Extensible means that users and others can add new graphical views to the system without having to learn a lot of detailed information on graphics programming. From the main window users can currently see three graphical views of a parallel program's execution: a time line of events (such as sends and receives) during the execution of a parallel program; a display of message queues for the processors; and a map of distributed two-dimensional arrays. The system also includes a display builder tool to help users design and implement their own new graphical views.
