Abstract
This research focuses on the design of a language-independent concept, Glimpse, for performance debugging of
multi-threaded programs. This research extends previous work on Graze, a tool designed and implemented for performance
debugging of C++ programs. Not only is Glimpse easily portable among different programming languages, (i) it is useful
in many different paradigms ranging from few long-lived threads to many short-lived threads; and (ii) it generalizes the
concept of intervals over Graze's original definition. Glimpse's portability has been validated by demonstrating its
usefulness in performance debugging of both Java programs as well as automatically parallelized FORTRAN programs.
