论文摘要
软错误已成为HPC应用程序的主要问题之一，因为这些错误可能导致严重损坏的结果，例如无声数据腐败（SDC）。关于错误弹性的先前研究已经研究了HPC应用的鲁棒性。但是，程序开发人员仍然很难确定潜在的软错误漏洞。在本文中，我们提出了Visilence，这是一种新型的可视化工具，可根据HPC应用程序生成的控制流图在视觉上分析错误漏洞。 Visilence有效地可视化受影响的程序状态在注入错误的错误下，并对应用程序中最脆弱的部分进行视觉分析。我们通过案例研究证明了粘度的有效性。
Soft errors have become one of the major concerns for HPC applications, as those errors can result in seriously corrupted outcomes, such as silent data corruptions (SDCs). Prior studies on error resilience have studied the robustness of HPC applications. However, it is still difficult for program developers to identify potential vulnerability to soft errors. In this paper, we present Visilence, a novel visualization tool to visually analyze error vulnerability based on the control-flow graph generated from HPC applications. Visilence efficiently visualizes the affected program states under injected errors and presents the visual analysis of the most vulnerable parts of an application. We demonstrate the effectiveness of Visilence through a case study.
