- 1. _I_n_t_r_o_d_u_c_t_i_o_n
-
- WorkShop Pro MPF is a programming tool that enables the
- individual programmer to understand the structure and
- parallelization of his or her Fortran program. It consists
- of a single program, the Parallel Analyzer View, _c_v_p_a_v,
- along with an associated app-defaults file, User's Manual,
- and man page.
-
- The Parallel Analyzer View reads analysis files generated
- either by PFA, or MIPSpro Fortran 77 7.x or higher,
- compiler, and displays information about loops and OMP/PCF
- constructs in the source files in a window. The analysis
- file contains the information currently shown on a listing
- file, and some additional, more detailed, information. The
- Parallel Analyzer View takes that information, and applies
- some heuristics to present it in a more comprehensible form
- with a graphical user interface.
-
- The Parallel Analyzer View is integrated with WorkShop 2.6,
- and will allow examination of a program's loops in
- conjunction with a performance experiment on a parallel
- Fortran processor. When run in this mode, the source
- displays will be annotated with line-level performance data,
- and the list of loops may be sorted in order of performance
- cost, so that the user's attention may be focused on the
- important loops.

- 1.2 _H_a_r_d_w_a_r_e__R_e_q_u_i_r_e_m_e_n_t_s
-
- You should have at least 16 Mbytes of RAM to run WorkShop
- Pro MPF. If you are working with large programs, especially
- for performance analysis, Silicon Graphics recommends 32
- Mbytes of RAM. Furthermore many of the programs have large
- address spaces and therefore use a large amount of swap
- space. Silicon Graphics suggests that if you see the tools
- being killed due to lack of swap space, increase the swap
- space using _f_x to repartition your drive. Alternatively,
- you may use the _s_w_a_p command to add additional swap space;
- see the _s_w_a_p(1M) man page.
