TUTORIAL: A New and Improved Eclipse Parallel ToolsPlatform: Advancing the Development of Scientific Applications

ABSTRACT: Many HPC developers still use command-line tools and tools with disparate and sometimes confusing user interfaces for the different aspects of the HPC project life cycle. The Eclipse Parallel Tools Platform (PTP) combines tools for coding, debugging, job scheduling, tuning, revision control, and more into an integrated environment for increased productivity. Leveraging the successful open source Eclipse platform, PTP helps manage the complexity of HPC scientific code development and optimization on diverse platforms and provides tools to gain insight into complex code that is otherwise difficult to attain. This tutorial will provide attendees with a hands-on introduction to Eclipse and PTP. Access to a parallel system from XSEDE for the hands-on portions will be provided.

REQUIRES: Laptop pre-installed with Eclipse and PTP.
See http://wiki.eclipse.org/PTP/tutorials/XSEDE12 for installation instructions.
