SAUCE: A web application for interactive teaching and learning of parallel programming
2017
Abstract Prevalent hardware trends towards parallel architectures and algorithms create a growing demand for graduate students familiar with the programming of concurrent software. However, learning parallel programming is challenging due to complex communication and memory access patterns as well as the avoidance of common pitfalls such as dead-locks and race conditions. Hence, the learning process has to be supported by adequate software solutions in order to enable future computer scientists and engineers to write robust and efficient code. This paper discusses a selection of well-known parallel algorithms based on C++11 threads, OpenMP, MPI, and CUDA that can be interactively embedded i…
Evolutionary White-Box Software Test with the EvoTest Framework: A Progress Report
2009
Evolutionary white-box software testing has been extensively researched but is not yet applied in industry. In order to investigate the reasons for this, we evaluated a prototype version of a tool, representing the state-of-the-art for evolutionary structural testing, which is targeted at industrial use. The focus was on the applicability of the structural test tool in the industrial context and not on assessment of the test cases generated. Four case studies, each consisting of an embedded software module from the automotive industry implemented in the C language, were evaluated with the tool. The case studies had to be customized to cope with the limitations of the tool and in all, test c…
