Revision as of 19:52, 15 August 2006 by Tibbitts.us.ibm.com (Talk | contribs) (Parallel Language Development Tools)

The PTP 1.1 will add some new functionality as well as enhancements to existing features.

Notes from PTP Planning 7/27/06: Greg Watson, Craig Rasmussen, Beth Tibbitts

Release 1.1 - Sept. 2006

PTP Core

  • Resource Manager - View only. One resource manager supported, probably SLURM
  • Debugger scalability improvements in running (not UI), will handle 1000 processes
  • Photran bug fixes
  • Run time system changes and improvements
    • MPICH2 support a possibility by then


Parallel Language Development Tools

This will combine the contribution of OpenMP support from IBM with the MPI Development Tools into a new common feature. The aim of this feature will be to provide a range of tools to aid the development of parallel language applications.

  • PLDT (Parallel Language Development tools, formerly known as MPI Development Tools)
    • Will support OpenMP in addition to MPI, for C programs
    • MPI support for Fortran
    •  ? OpenMP support for Fortran - probably not, but a possibility by then
    • MPI New project wizard:*
      • MPI Project type
      • MPI and compiler versions: specify which MPI implementation, and which compiler/toolchain, for the project
      • *Note: the MPI New project wizard may be deferred until CDT new project model changes are in, probably summer '07, meaning Release 2.0.

Other

  • TAU[1] (Tuning and Analysis Utilities) Support
    • Automatic generation of TAU-instrumented binaries from existing TAU configurations
    • Trace and profile output storage in timestamped directories
    • Make target support (Craig will do if UOregon doesn't)
