Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh | MAPPED: Predictive dynamic analysis tool for MPI applications | Abstract-Formal dynamic analysis of MPI programs is critically important since conventional testing tools for message passing programs do not cover the space of possible non-deterministic communication matches, thus may miss bugs in the unexamined execution scenarios. While modern dynamic verificati... | | 2012-01-01 |
