Description:
Because massively parallel systems contain hundreds or thousands of processors, each potentially with 5-10 dynamic performance metrics drawn from multiple system levels, the performance data occupy a very sparsely populated, high-dimensional space. Not only does virtual reality allow one to quickly grasp the relationships among large numbers of performance metrics, but by enabling a participant to interact with a performance data source in the system or application code, it also allows one to intuitively understand system or application performance.
