Final Report for Foundational Tools for Petascale Computing

This project concentrated on various aspects of creating tool infrastructure to make it easier to program large-scale parallel computers. This project was collaborative with the University of Wisconsin and closely related to the project DE-SC0002606 (“Tools for the Development of High Performance Energy Applications and Systems”) . The research conducted during this project is summarized in this report. The complete details of the work are available in the ten publications listed at the end of the report. Many of the concepts created during this project have been incorporated into tools and made available as freely downloadable software (at www.dyninst.org). It also supported the Ph.D. studies of three students and one research staff member.
