Tools for High Performance Computing 2016 [electronic resource] : Proceedings of the 10th International Workshop on Parallel Tools for High Performance Computing, October 2016, Stuttgart, Germany / edited by Christoph Niethammer, José Gracia, Tobias Hilbrich, Andreas Knüpfer, Michael M. Resch, Wolfgang E. Nagel.

This book presents the proceedings of the 10th International Parallel Tools Workshop, held October 4-5, 2016 in Stuttgart, Germany – a forum to discuss the latest advances in parallel tools. High-performance computing plays an increasingly important role for numerical simulation and modelling in academic and industrial research. At the same time, using large-scale parallel systems efficiently is becoming more difficult. A number of tools addressing parallel program development and analysis have emerged from the high-performance computing community over the last decade, and what may have started as collection of small helper script has now matured to production-grade frameworks. Powerful user interfaces and an extensive body of documentation allow easy usage by non-specialists. <some of="" these="" tools="" have="" been="" commercialized,="" but="" others="" are="" operated="" as="" open="" source="" by="" a="" growing="" research="" community.
