Debugging MPI Grid Applications Using Net-Dbx

Overview Problem solving using grid computing environments has become very popular amongst research groups in computation-demanding fields. This is due to the ability of Grid technologies and middleware to enable large-scale resource sharing. Application-development in such environments is a challenging process, thus the need for grid enabled development tools is also one that has to be fulfilled. This paper describes the development of a Grid Interface for the Net-dbx parallel debugger that can be used to debug MPI grid applications. Net-dbx is a web-based debugger enabling users to use it for debugging from anywhere in the Internet. The proposed debugging architecture is platform independent, because it uses Java, and it is accessible from anywhere, anytime because it is web based.
