Publication date: 1 de June, 2021PADTAD 2009 – Parallel and Distributed Systems: Testing, Analysis and Debugging
The PADTAD 2009 workshop is a two-day event at ISSTA 2009, focusing on techniques and systems that aid in the testing, analysis, and debugging of multi-threaded/parallel/distributed applications systems. The workshop has a practical and applied emphasis on systems that have been implemented in (at least) prototype form. The workshop concentrates on works whose main contributions are in the field of testing, debugging, and education.
Although debuggers and profilers are the traditional examples of testing and debugging tools on sequential machines, there are issues unique to concurrent systems that are not commonly addressed. Examples of such significant challenges include deadlock, load imbalance, data sharing patterns, race conditions, and contention. Established testing techniques and tools are insufficient for non-sequential programs because they largely ignore timing and scheduling, which are inherent in concurrent systems. Beyond the shortcomings on current tools and technologies, the rising generating of programmers and designers need to be more versed in concurrent systems design and programming.
Education and curriculum are critical to realizing the full potential of multi-core technology and we need to begin training the students who will make multi-core happen in a large scale. As such, we strongly encourage abstracts and regular papers devoted to education and curriculum at all levels including pedagogy, exercises, projects, experience reports, etc.
