A friend of mine forwarded this to me...


Very Interesting.. Intel Ships a product called VTune, that does the same
thing for C and Fortran Programs- recommends improvements, especially
in the presence of ambiguities that cannot be resolved by the compiler
automatically, in the "source language". It is called the "Coach".


Though not in the mainframe world, VTune does give recommendations for
the assembly programmer on what the problems are in the assembly code
now. Look for more in the future....
