An information manipulation environment for monitoring parallel programs
Manfred Tscheligi, Sabine Musil · 1994
Information Manipulation Environments (IME) are metaphor based visual environments for the problem oriented presentation and manipulation of non standard application functions. An IME is also characterized by excessive usage of direct manipulative interaction techniques. Based on these features we present INHOUSE, which is an information manipulation environment for user oriented monitoring of parallel system behavior. The functionality of the system is shown by a small and consistent set of non-standard interaction objects reflecting the task oriented structure of the application. It provides an intuitive interaction philosophy for non-parallel programming experts.
