Tuesday October 27, 2009 New whitepaper: Tuning Parallel Code on Solaris - Lessons Learned from HPC
Most computers today are equipped with multicore processors and manufacturers are increasing core and thread counts, as the most cost effective and energy efficient route to increased processing throughput. However, tuning parallel applications brings with it complex challenges that can only be overcome with increasingly advanced tools and techniques.
The set of tools needed to achieve this goal was expanded continuously in each successive version of the Solaris OS, culminating in Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris with DTrace — arguably the most advanced observability tool available today in any operating environment. Learn by example about the tools available in Solaris and how they can be applied to determine where problems lie with parallel code and then how to figure them out. Download PDF
