+AdaptivePerf is an open-source architecture-agnostic code profiler for Linux, based on the custom-patched "perf". Using
+just one single command adaptiveperf `"<command to be profiled>"`, the tool:
+
+* samples both on-CPU and off-CPU activity,
+* traces every spawned thread and process,
+* minimises the risk of broken profiled stacks by detecting inappropriate kernel and CPU configurations automatically (
+  provided that the profiled program has been compiled with frame pointers),
+* produces data for rendering interactive non-time-ordered and time-ordered flame graphs in a web browser, also on
+  non-Linux operating systems.
+
+Moreover, with extra adaptiveperf command flags, low-level interactions with hardware can be profiled and result
+processing can be moved to a separate Linux or non-Linux machine through real-time TCP streaming.
+
+The tool has been already tested on the x86-64 and RISC-V architectures, with arm64 to follow soon. You can download the
+development version from GitHub: <https://github.com/AdaptivePerf/AdaptivePerf>.
+
+AdaptivePerf has been created to help profile and benchmark the SYCLOPS stack in high-energy physics data processing,
+genomics analysis, and autonomous systems by addressing the shortcomings of the original “perf”. More features are
+planned to be added soon, including roofline profiling (thanks to the collaboration with INESC-ID) and
+heterogeneous/non-CPU architecture support.
