Know Your Bugs: Weapons for Efficient Debugging

08:00 - 09:30
Speaker: Xavier Besseron

This presentation gives the essentials to fight and prevent the bug invasion occurring in any software. It proposes a short introduction to debugging tools, focusing mainly on GDB and Valgrind. Then the most common types of bugs are presented and explained, and a method to track them is proposed. Finally, recommendations for day-to-day software development are advised in order to keep safe from bugs (as much as possible) or at least track them efficiently. This talk will be followed by a practical session whose goal is to track bugs in voluntarily infested programs.

Practical session : Debugging

09:30 - 11:00
Speaker: Xavier Besseron

Practical session : Debugging

Introduction to R and Data Analysis

11:00 - 13:00
Speaker: Joseph Emeras

This lectures shows aspects of performance evaluation to produce sound and eye-friendly graphs. Joseph will guide you on transforming parallel applications performance logged metrics into graphs using R (a powerful statistics framework).

Practical Session : Analyse Parallel Applications Performance with R

16:00 - 19:00
Speaker: Joseph Emeras

With a good basis lets us practice on the subject of performance evaluation of parallel applicaitons.
