NOVEMBER 17, 2009

Natick, MA – TotalView Technologies, a provider of interactive analysis and debugging tools for serial and parallel codes, today announced that its TotalView debugger now supports the Cray CX1™ deskside supercomputer. TotalView provides users with the ability to debug parallel applications running on the Cray CX1 system, which offers affordable, high-performance computing without the hassle, complexity and expense of an enterprise-level system.

“Debugging with the highest quality tool, TotalView, on the Cray CX1 system gives individual developers the capabilities available to high performance supercomputing centers,” said Rich Collier, CEO and President at TotalView Technologies.

The Cray CX1 deskside supercomputer is based on the x86-64 processor architecture, combining the features of a workstation with the power of a cluster.  Like TotalView, it is used by customers across all industries who are facing challenging engineering and software design problems.  David Wade, HPC/CFD engineer with General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. declared, “I'm happy that Cray and TotalView Technologies have teamed up to provide a state-of-the-art debugger on the CX1 platform so that I can utilize the debugger on all of the platforms I develop on.”

“The Cray CX1 represents ‘ease-of-everything’ computing, with customers putting it to work for everything from video rendering to defense applications,” said Ian Miller, senior vice president of the productivity solutions group and marketing at Cray. “With TotalView, users can experience the same ease in resolving problems during development as they experience while running these applications.”

TotalView is a comprehensive source code analysis and memory error detection tool that dramatically enhances developer productivity by simplifying the process of debugging parallel, data-intensive, multi-process, multi-threaded or network-distributed applications. Built to handle the complexities of the world’s most demanding applications, TotalView offers a number of advanced features that help speed development and eliminate bugs quickly, and is capable of scaling from one to thousands of processes or threads with applications distributed over multiple machines or processors.   The most recent versions include integration with MemoryScape, TotalView Technologies’ memory analysis tool, and an add-on tool, ReplayEngine, the reverse debugger redefining development.
