Custom Event-based Analysis Workflow

The following figure shows an overview of the custom event-based analysis workflow that is recommended in case you create a custom analysis type with user-defined metrics (event ratios) using the configuration files.

Prerequisites:

To use the configuration and script files provided by the VTune Amplifier for the event-based custom analysis, make sure you have Python 2.6 (or later) installed. Older versions may cause errors.
