Performance Cockpit: An Extensible GUI Platform for Performance Tools

Within the EP-Cache project, the Performance Cockpit has been developed to provide a unified GUI for a series of performance tools. This is achieved through the establishment of a general extensible architecture and the application of standardized intermediate representations of program structures. This paper describes the design and implementation of this platform, and discusses the future evolvement into a universal GUI platform for performance tools independent of programming language and programming paradigms.
