Abstract :
Debugging parallel programs can be a daunting task. The authors describe a configurable distributed monitoring system which they have built to aid in the debugging of parallel and distributed programs. The system, BEE++, allows the programmer to easily instrument and control a distributed program. They present the BEE++ system and discuss how it can be used to aid the debugging of parallel programs written in PVM, a popular message passing system for heterogeneous systems
