Abstract

The OMIS project aims at defining a standard interface between tools for parallel systems and monitoring systems. Monitoring systems act as mediators between tools and the parallel program running on some target architecture. Their task is to observe and manipulate the program according to the tools' commands. A standardized interface will allow different research groups to develop tools that can be used concurrently with the same program. OCM, an OMIS compliant monitoring system, is the first implementation of such an environment. It is designed for PVM programs running on workstation clusters. This paper will give an outline of the goals of the OMIS project and describe important details of the OCM design.
