This training course provides two main sessions to enable users to maximise their usage of the Forge tools. We will provide an overview of Linaro Forge, a cross platform, integrated environment for debugging and optimising parallel codes at any scale. We will provide hands-on demonstrations and exercises of how Linaro Forge reduces development time, simplifies debugging, and eases application performance enhancement.

Session 1: Ensuring Program Correctness with Linaro DDT
Using sample codes, we will walk through the major capabilities of the debugger to illustrate how DDT can debug applications ranging from a single thread to large scale.

Session 2: Performance Engineering with Linaro Performance Reports and Linaro MAP
We will illustrate how in a matter of minutes you can understand the nature of your application’s performance. We will introduce best practices to attain and maintain optimal performance.

The lectures are complemented by hands-on exercises and a final session to try DDT / MAP with your own codes.
The course is organised in collaboration with Linaro.
