While high performance computing was eagerly adopted by users as a vehicle for satisfying a growing demand on computational power, some areas are still poorly explored. The MPI paradigm is considered as being the keystone for the large development of the HPC infrastructure over the last decade. However, even today the users have to face the lack of tools able to help increase the stability of the software stack and/or of the applications. In this paper we present and evaluate a tool designed to allow developers to further investigate the execution of parallel applications by enabling them to dynamically move back and forth in the execution timeline of a parallel application. Based on an unobtrusive message logging mechanism, deterministic replay is enforced, leading to a simpler and more efficient way to debug parallel software.
