Abstract :
This paper introduces the PARSA (PARallel program Scheduling and Assessment) parallel software development tool to address the efficient partitioning and scheduling of parallel programs on multiprocessor systems. The PARSA environment consists of a user-friendly (visual), interactive, compile-time environment for partitioning, scheduling, and performance evaluation/tuning of parallel programs on different parallel computer architectures
