Description

• Advanced techniques for optimising signal processing
  • Focus: High-level algorithms rather than micro-optimisations (to avoid premature optimisations)
• Unit-Testing: good API, functional- to system-integration tests
• Benchmarking, profiling, and debugging tools for developers
  • UT/micro Benchmark facilities
  • run-time: GR4 Profiler framework (uses Google's trace format)
  • compile-time: Clang's -ftime-trace facilities (also trace format)
• Implementing secure coding practices
