Abstract

A debugger attaches to a parallel process that is executing simultaneously at various nodes of a computing cluster. Using a shim, executing at each node, to monitor each of the processes, the parallel process is debugged such that neither the process or the particular message passing system implemented on the cluster, needs to know of the existence or details regarding the debugger.
