David Finkel · ACM SIGMETRICS Performance Evaluation Review · 1991
This book is the proceedings of the Workshop on Parallel Computer Systems: Performance Instrumentation and Visualization held in Santa Fe, New Mexico in May, 1989. Some of the sixteen papers included here discuss research projects designed primarily to collect performance data from distributed and parallel systems. Other papers discuss modern visualization techniques in general, or report on projects to put these powerful techniques to work on parallel computer system performance data, to make this data easier to understand and to use to improve system or program performance.
