We present here a report produced by a workshop on 'Addressing failures in exascale
computing'held in Park City, Utah, 4–11 August 2012. The charter of this workshop was to …

Monitoring is the act of collecting information concerning the characteristics and status of
resources of interest. Monitoring grid resources is a lively research area given the …

We present the Stack Trace Analysis Tool (STAT) to aid in debugging extreme-scale
applications. STAT can reduce problem exploration spaces from thousands of processes to …

Parameterized heuristics abound in computer aided design and verification, and manual
tuning of the respective parameters is difficult and time-consuming. Very recent results from …

Characterizing the communication behavior of large-scale applications is a difficult and
costly task due to code/system complexity and long execution times. While many tools to …

The next generation of capability-class, massively parallel processing (MPP) systems is
expected to have hundreds of thousands of processors. For application-driven, periodic …

Proactive fault tolerance (FT) in high-performance computing is a concept that prevents
compute node failures from impacting running parallel applications by preemptively …

Resource and job management software is crucial to High Performance Computing (HPC)
for efficient application execution. However, current systems and approaches can no longer …

Over the last decades a large number of performance tools has been developed to analyze
and optimize high performance applications. Their acceptance by end users, however, has …

Abstract High Performance Computing is now one of the emerging fields in computer
science and its applications. Top HPC facilities, supercomputers, offer great opportunities in …
