Debugging the performance of parallel and distributed systems remains a difficult task despite the widespread use of middleware packages for automatic distribution, communication...
Due to the ever-widening performance gap between processors and disks, I/O operations tend to become the major performance bottleneck of data-intensive applications on modern clus...

Abstract. This paper presents PerWiz, a performance prediction tool for improving the performance of message passing programs. PerWiz focuses on locating where a significant impro...
Abstract. A challenging software engineering problem is the design and implementation of component-based (CB) applications that can meet specified performance requirements. Our PPC...
We introduce a refinement strategy to bring the parallel performance analysis closer to the user. The analysis starts with a simple high-level performance model. It is based on fir...
