BIDM.Asset.Abstract The Lightweight Corefile Browser (LCB) provides a mechanism for capturing and representing the dynamic state of a parallel application that potentially involves hundreds of processes. LCB's goal is to provide a high-level view of the dynamic calling structure of the program, at the moment it terminated. The command-line browser reads the corefile, strips out all data concerning the culprit process and the reason it failed, and presents the results in a simple traceback format. LCB supports a graphical interface, as well as a textual interface for situations where graphics are unavailable or where processing time must be kept minimal. META
