3 What is G-PM? G-PM is an on-line tool that allows application developers to measure, evaluate, and visualize the performance of Grid applications G-PM is a unique tool for computer scientists and Grid programmers It combines performance analysis of applications at multiple abstraction levels with the analysis of the Grid infrastructure HLAC = High Level Analysis Component PMC = Performance Measurement Component UIVC = User Interface / Visualization Component OCM-G = Grid application monitoring system Benchmarks (Task 2.3) PMC UIVC HLAC OCM-G (Task 3.3) G-PM 2 Fakultät für Informatik der Technischen Universität München Informatik X: Rechnertechnik und Rechnerorganisation / Parallelrechnerarchitektur 24.05.2004  Structure of G-PM:

4 3  HLAC adds a layer for high-level data analysis to G-PM, which provides two major functionalities to the user: 1.It enables to combine and/or correlate performance measurement data from different sources. E.g.:  measure the load imbalance by comparing an application's CPU usage on each node  measure the portion of the maximum network bandwidth obtained by an application by comparing performance measurement data with benchmark data 2.It allows to measure application specific performance metrics. E.g:  the time used by one iteration of a solver  the response time of a specific request  convergence rate of an interative solver  These functionalities are offered via user-defined metrics What is the Purpose of HLAC?

5 4 What are User-Defined Metrics?  User-defined metrics are performance metrics specified by the user at run-time according to his/her needs  often they are specific to the examined application  User-defined metrics can be based on existing metrics and optional information from the application:  occurance of important events (probes) in the application‘s execution  assosiation between related events (using a virtual time)  performance data computed by the application itself Fakultät für Informatik der Technischen Universität München Informatik X: Rechnertechnik und Rechnerorganisation / Parallelrechnerarchitektur 24.05.2004  In G-PM user-defined metrics are supported by a Performance Metrics Specification Language (PMSL)

6 5 Main Achievements of TUM Fakultät für Informatik der Technischen Universität München Informatik X: Rechnertechnik und Rechnerorganisation / Parallelrechnerarchitektur 24.05.2004  After the second project year, TUM has achieved:  definition of the PMSL language, based on requirements and examples of useful metrics for the CrossGrid applications  implementation of measurements of metrics defined via PMSL  parser for PMSL: translation into internal representation  simple optimizations  evaluation of measurements (centrally in G-PM, distributed evaluation is work in progress)  full integration of HLAC with G-PM and OCM-G  full integration of G-PM into the autobuild and deployment process  G-PM / HLAC has been used with most CrossGrid applications:  Blood flow simulation (Task 1.1)  Flooding simulation (Task 1.2)  High energy physics neural network training (Task 1.3)  (Air pollution is in progress)
