%X PARAVER (PARallel Visualization and Events Representation)
   is a tool to visualize and analyze a parallel trace file.
   PARAVER can be used in two different ways: Creating its own
   trace file in accordance with the PARAVER trace format, or
   using a modified PVM library. PARAVER is based on a simple
   interface to manage several displaying windows. In fact,
   PARAVER can be seen as a tape recorder where the trace file
   is the tape. PARAVER provides many functionalities to see
   and analyze qualitatively the trace file. Moreover, the user
   can add his own analysis function to extend the
   functionality of the tool. This paper discusses the basic
   concept, design and use of PARAVER. We explain in detail
   each window. The different functionalities of PARAVER are
   also examined. Finally we present the future directions of
   our research.
