Title:
The Visualization of Parallel Systems: An Overview
Authors:
Eileen Kraemer
John T. Stasko
Abstract:
We present an overview of visualization tools for parallel systems
focusing on parallel debuggers, performance evaluation systems, and
program visualization systems. Our goal in this paper is to summarize
the issues addressed throughout the entire process of generating a
visualization, highlighting the areas in which particular systems have
made important contributions. Our discussion is focused along two
levels: the visualization task being performed, and the
purpose of visualization. This article also serves as a
bibliographic compendium of existing research on the visualization of
parallel systems.
