NAME

       vite, vite-vbo - a visual trace explorer

SYNOPSIS

       vite
       vite -h
       vite [-f|-a] file_path [-e export_path] [-t [time_init]:[time_end]]

       vite-vbo
       vite-vbo -h
       vite-vbo [-f|-a] file_path [-e export_path] [-t [time_init]:[time_end]]

DESCRIPTION

       ViTE  is  a  visual  trace  explorer.  It  is a useful tool for profiling and debugging parallel programs
       (multi‐process or multi‐core).
       ViTE reads program execution trace data from file (currently in Pajé trace format) and display  it  in  a
       graphical  interface.  Program  execution  data  could  be  a state (drawn as a colored rectangle - color
       depends of the kind of state), an event (drawn as a green disc) or a communication between two  processes
       (drawn as a white arrow).

       Unlike  vite, vite-vbo uses OpenGL's feature VBO (Vertex Buffer Object), which can improve performance of
       rendering, but can require more GPU memory.

OPTIONS

       ViTE accepts the following options:

       -h      Display help.

       -f file_path
               Open the file_path file.

       -a file_path
               Open the file_path file and display it entirely.

       -e export_path
               Export the opened trace file (with -f or -a option) to the export_path file in SVG format.

       -t [time_init]:[time_end]
               Just parse trace from time_init to time_end.
               If time_init is missed, trace will be parsed from the minimum time to time_end.
               If time_end is missed, trace will be parsed from time_init to the maximum time.

AUTHORS

       ViTE was created by a group of french engineering school students for the INRIA research center.
