Europe/Zurich
31/3-004 - IT Amphitheatre (CERN)
Description
Lecture Contents
In this lecture, we will look into the basics of CPU hardware architecture and how it relates to performance. We will also look into how to identify performance bottlenecks using a profiler, and what techniques can be used to mitigate different kinds of performance bottlenecks.
Requirements
Students should have basic familiarity with the Linux operating system, as well as with C and/or C++ programming languages. Knowledge about data structures and algorithms at a basic level is also good to have, but not strictly necessary.
