Refactoring an HPC code base using object-oriented methodology - effects on maintainability and performance

Malin Källén
Department of Information Technology


Abstract:

My research connects high performance computing with software engineering. At my half-time seminar, I will address how the quest for performance can be approached without sacrificing the principles for constructing maintainable extensible software, and what compromises may be needed. At the end of the presentation, I will pose an open question to the audience to solicit input for future research.

The external reviewer is Professor Serge Demeyer from the University of Antwerp, who is an expert in software reengineering and the evolution of object-oriented software systems.
