Automatic performance debugging of SPMD-style parallel programs

Automatic performance debugging of parallel applications includes two main steps: locating performance bottlenecks and uncovering their root causes for performance optimization. Previous work fails to resolve this challenging issue in two ways: first, ...
Enhancing Performance Bug Prediction Using Performance Code Metrics
MSR '24: Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Mining Software Repositories

Performance bugs are non-functional defects that can significantly reduce the performance of an application (e.g., software hanging or freezing) and lead to poor user experience. Prior studies found that each type of performance bugs follows a unique ...
Performance debugging in the enterprise parallel programming system
CASCON '95: Proceedings of the 1995 conference of the Centre for Advanced Studies on Collaborative research

Debugging parallel/distributed programs is an iterative process, alternating between correctness debugging and performance debugging. Performance debugging involves identifying bottlenecks in a parallel computation and providing meaningful feedback to ...
