Automatic Performance Analysis: Real Tools

Objective

The working group APART2 will network national European development projects working on automatic performance analysis tools. These projects are based on the results of the Esprit Working Group APART 1 (Project No. 29488) on Automatic Performance Analysis, which was being funded until December 2000. APART 2 will extend the specification techniques developed in APART 1 and will investigate a broad range of implementation technologies. Besides collaboration among the national projects, the working group will investigate requirements and techniques for performance analysis in grid environments. The European and American partners of this working group will closely collaborate to disseminate and collect information on automatic performance analysis tools. Three international workshops will be held in the style of the successful APART 1 workshops.

OBJECTIVES
The goals of the working group APART 2 (Automatic Performance Analysis: Real Tools) are:
1) to network European groups with local development projects targeting automatic performance analysis tools;
2) to extend the specification techniques developed in APART 1;
3) to evaluate a broad spectrum of implementation techniques;
4) to take advantage of the established research network of APART 1 for the European projects, and
5) to investigate performance analysis requirements and techniques for grid environments in close collaboration with the European Grid Forum and the American Grid Forum.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
The work will be structured into three work packages (WP):
1) Performance Property Specification Techniques;
2) Common Interfaces and Integration Technologies, and;
3) Automatic Performance Analysis and Grid Computing.
The work within this working group will be done at work package meetings, plenary meetings, and three international workshops. WP1 will first determine a set of possible implementation techniques for the data repository and for processing ASL specifications. The techniques selected by the local projects will be evaluated at the end of the working group with respect to their performance impacts. In addition, the work package will develop extensions to ASL covering the specification of the search process as well as an object-oriented version of the current property specification. WP2 will facilitate and guide the implementation work in the local projects via an intensive information exchange. The work package will set up comparable and orthogonal experiments to evaluate the influence of the quality of performance data on the effectiveness of the tools, it will maintain and extend the APART 1 WWW collection of performance tools and of integration techniques, and will set up an evaluation program suite based on programs used in the local projects. WP3 will develop a list of performance tool requirements in close collaboration with application groups running applications on the Grid.
Contacts to those groups can be set up at the Grid Forum and EGrid meetings. The evaluation of grid monitoring techniques will be a joint work of APART 2, the Grid Forum and the EGrid Performance work packages. Based on the results of the early work in this workpackage and on the results of the local projects implementing automatic performance analysis tools, WP3 will investigate whether automatic analysis techniques can be exploited in the Grid context.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Call for proposal

Procedure for inviting applicants to submit project proposals, with the aim of receiving EU funding.
