Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of creating software tools for visualizing the dynamic behavior of parallel applications and systems. PARADISE (PARallel Animated Debugging and Simulation Environment) approaches this problem by providing a meta-tool environment for generating custom visual analysis tools. PARADISE is a meta-tool because it is a tool which is utilized to create other tools. This paper focuses on the user's view of the use of PARADISE for constructing tools which analyze the interaction between parallel systems and parallel applications. An example of its use, involving the PASM Parallel Processing System, is given.
