Abstract: Abstract Periscope, the automatic performance analysis tool, was extended in the European AutoTune project to support automatic tuning. As part of the extension, the tool provides a framework for the development of automatic tuners. The Periscope Tuning Framework (PTF) facilitates the development of advanced tuning plugins by providing the Tuning Plugin Interface (TPI). The tuners are implemented as plugins that are loaded at runtime. These can access the performance analysis features of Periscope as well as its automatic experiment execution support. The partners in AutoTune developed tuning plugins for compiler flag selection, MPI library parameters, MPI IO, master/worker applications, parallel pattern applications, and energy efficiency. This presentation will outline the development of tuning plugins and gives examples from the plugins developed in AutoTune.
