Sponsored by ACM SIGMETRICS, this conference covers a broad spectrum of tool technology issues from fundamental research questions concerning tool functionality to problems in tool design and implementation to the usability of tools in real environments. Tool researchers, system designers, implementors, and users are invited to participate in a focussed and lively forum inherited from the tenor of the previous meeting and its predecessor workshops. Topics of specific interest include (but are not limited to): program debugging performance optimization program/system visualization perturbation analysis automated performance debugging performance-directed adaptive control tools for parallel languages tools for metacomputing new tool architectures and paradigms measurement architectures and systems program interaction and steering experiences in debugging/tuning large-scale applications Submissions may be hard copy or electronic (electronic submissions are preferred).
