history
Project history and usage
CubeLib is the C++ library component of Cube 4.x, the Scalasca/Score-P performance report explorer and data-format tooling used in high-performance-computing performance analysis.
Project history
The Scalasca project describes Cube 4.x as a generic tool for displaying a multidimensional performance space with metric, call-path, and system-resource dimensions. The download page states that since Cube 4.4 the software has been split into CubeW, CubeLib, CubeGUI, and jCubeR packages.
Adoption history
Cube 4.x is documented for files produced by Score-P and Scalasca 2.x, while retaining backward compatibility with Cube 3.x data. That placement makes CubeLib part of the common tooling stack around European HPC performance measurement and analysis.
How it is used
CubeLib underlies command-line tools for manipulating and inspecting Cube performance reports, including operations such as diff, merge, mean, call-tree conversion, metrics derivation, and report dumping.
Why package nerds care
The Homebrew cubelib formula exposes a large set of specialized HPC command-line tools from the Cube suite. It is package-manager-significant because upstream distributes Cube as separate component tarballs rather than a single monorepo-style source-control project.
Timeline
- 1998: Copyright range on the current Cube 4.x page begins for Forschungszentrum Juelich.
- 2012: Cube 4.x paper listed from PARA 2010 proceedings on the official Scalasca page.
- Cube 4.4: Upstream split Cube into CubeW, CubeLib, CubeGUI, and jCubeR packages.
- 2025: CubeLib 4.9.x documentation and packages are current on the official Scalasca release site.
