OMPT defines mechanisms and an API for interfacing with tools in the OpenMP program.

The OMPT API provides the following functionality:
\begin{itemize}
  \addtolength{\itemindent}{1cm}
  \item  examines the state associated with an OpenMP thread
  \item  interprets the call stack of an OpenMP thread
  \item  receives notification about OpenMP events
  \item  traces activity on OpenMP target devices
  \item  assesses implementation-dependent details
  \item  controls a tool from an OpenMP application
\end{itemize}

The following sections will illustrate basic mechanisms and operations of the OMPT API.
