"A tool that provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for viewing the static analysis results of a Synergistic Processing Element (SPE) program and that enables safe, interactive hand-tuning of assembly."

How does it work?
"The Assembly Visualizer reads in SPE assembly and locates pipeline stalls and single issues by using an internal model of the Cell Broadband Engine architecture. Register dependencies are tracked, allowing the user to see the sources of pipeline stalls. The same dependencies allow for interactive editing; transformations that would violate the correctness of the original program are easily detected and prohibited."
