Hi all,
Looking for OpenGL enthusiasts, I would like to propose the following project:
Scope: develop a 2D/3D OpenGL application, written in ANSI C, based on
concepts from Gunther's work [1] which will be capable of digesting mpstat,
or cpurec or any other cpu statistics raw data and displaying a movie, a
sequence of multiprocessor state changes between: IDLE, USER, SYSTEM time.
Details: the player displays a triangle with 3-triangular axes, defined as
follows:
* percent user time (north-pointing red arrow). USER.
* percent system time (southeast-pointing yellow arrow). SYSTEM.
* percent idle time (southwest-pointing blue arrow). IDLE.
This triangle is affectionately known as "Barry3" because it corresponds to a
BARYCENTRIC coordinate system not usually seen in performance analysis
and it displays 3 barycentric coordinates: %user, %sys, and %idle times.
Audience: Performance analysts, SysAdmins, Diagnosis
Tools: SunStudio, gcc, OpenGL 2.x
Site: http://www.systemdatarecorder.org/cpuplayer/
Let me know if you anyone is interested in joining and developing such
thing.
thanks,
Stefan
