Abstract
The Mercury Monitoring System is a generic GMA-compatible grid monitoring framework. In this paper we present how higher level application monitoring and debugging facilities can be built on top of Mercury. Currently two higher level application monitoring systems are implemented using Mercury: one is GRM/PROVE and the other is a stand-alone MPI wrapper library that can be used to learn about the communication patterns of MPI programs. Remote debugging of applications has also been implemented on top of Mercury by using the remote debugging facilities of gdb (the GNU Debugger) which is also presented in this paper.
