[Seminaire-LRDE] Mercredi 18 février 2015: Yann Azoury, Faveod

by Daniela Becker

Chers collègues, La prochaine session du séminaire Performance et Généricité du LRDE (Laboratoire de Recherche et Développement de l'EPITA) aura lieu le Mercredi 18 février 2015 (11h00--12h30), Salle L0 du LRDE. Vous trouverez sur le site du séminaire [1] les prochaines séances, les résumés, captations vidéos et planches des exposés précédents [2], le détail de cette séance [3] ainsi que le plan d'accès [4].

Cette anomalie épistémologique s’explique pourtant par des erreurs technologiques récurrentes dans l’histoire, des pièges et des culs-de-sac ralentissant le progrès scientifique. Parmi ces freins : la dette technique, l’utilisation de trop de technologies, trop élitistes pour être correctement utilisées en général, et le niveau maximal de compréhension et d’analyse de chaque humain, qui est fortement variable mais toujours plafonné. La technologie Faveod sert à éviter ces freins par la formalisation structurée et factorisée des besoins métiers, applicatifs et techniques dans un modèle générique et exhaustif. L’analyse continue des évolutions collaboratives de ce modèle permet la production totalement automatisée et instantanée de sa traduction technique : l’application cible en cohérence et en qualité. La gestion de la complexité des facteurs influant sur la qualité logicielle étant déléguée à la technologie, il devient possible d’augmenter son niveau par accumulation linéaire sans dépendre des facteurs humains limitants. -- Yann Azoury, EPITA SIGL 2006, a toujours travaillé pour des éditeurs de logiciels en France et aux Etats-Unis. En 2002, sa participation au projet de portage d’OpenOffice pour Mac OS X pour le compte d’Apple lui permet d'atteindre ses propres limites d’analyse et donc de comprendre la nécessité de les dépasser par des outils. Ainsi, en 2005, il crée le projet Faveod pour ce faire et fonde la société éponyme en 2007 pour diffuser cette technologie. L'entrée du séminaire est libre. Merci de bien vouloir diffuser cette information le plus largement possible. N'hésitez pas à nous faire parvenir vos suggestions d’orateurs. -- Akim Demaille Akim.Demaille(a)lrde.epita.fr _______________________________________________ Seminaire mailing list Seminaire(a)lrde.epita.fr https://lists.lrde.epita.fr/listinfo/seminaire

Nouvelle publication

by Souheib Baarir

J’ai le plaisir de vous annoncer que le papier suivant a été accepté pour publication dans la 30e édition de SAC (ACM/SIGAPP Symposium On Applied Computing) : D. Khelladi (1), R. Bendraou (1), S. Baarir (2), Y. Laurent (1), M.‑P. Gervais (1) : A Framework to Formally Verify Conformance of a Software Process to a Software Method <https://publications.lip6.fr/index.php/publications/show/11054> ». (1) Sorbonne Universités, UPMC Univ. Paris 06, France, CNRS UMR 7606, LIP6, F-75005 Paris, France (2) LRDE, EPITA, Kremlin-Bicêtre, France ABSTRACT The increasing complexity of development projects requires methodological frameworks or methods to support development processes. A method comes with a set of best practices that are enforced and instantiated into processes to drive the realization steps of the development projects. However, those best practices come in the form of text in guides and books, or they are in the developer’s mind. Thus, during an instantiation of a method, there is no guaranty to enforce its best practices into the process, which could impact negatively the criteria: cost, time, and quality. To cope with this issue, we propose a library of constraints to be checked for four popular methods: Unified Process, Extreme Programming, Scrum and Kanban. It represents a set of best practices of these four methods that must be enforced during the instantiation. On top of this library we have built up a template-based constraint language, and implemented it to express additional constraints on processes that are modeled with UML Activity Diagrams (AD). To apply formal verification we leverage on our formalization of the way UML AD operates based on fUML semantics. The evaluation showed the feasibility of our approach as well as the feasibility to check constraints of different dimensions, i.e. time, resource, control-flow, and data-flow.

New Publication: TACAS'15

by Etienne Renault

We are pleased to announce that the following paper has been accepted in the 21st International Conference on Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems (TACAS). Find the title and abstract below. Title and corresponding authors: Parallel Explicit Model Checking for Generalized Büchi Automata Etienne Renault(1,2,3), Alexandre Duret-Lutz(1), Fabrice Kordon(2,3) and Denis Poitrenaud(3,4) (1) LRDE, EPITA, Kremlin-Bicêtre, France (2) Sorbonne Universités, UPMC Univ. Paris 06, France (3) CNRS UMR 7606, LIP6, F-75005 Paris, France (4) Université Paris Descartes, Paris, France Abstract: We present new parallel emptiness checks for LTL model checking. Unlike existing parallel emptiness checks, these are based on an SCC enumeration, support generalized Büchi acceptance, and require no synchronization points nor repair procedures. A salient feature of our algorithms is the use of a global union-find data structure in which multiple threads share structural information about the automaton being checked. Our prototype implementation has encouraging performances: the new emptiness checks have better speedup than existing algorithms in half of our experiments.

Session at the next ACCU conference

by Didier Verna

Hello, I'm pleased to announce that I will hold a 90 minutes session at the next ACCU conference, Bristol, April 2015. The abstract follows: Referential transparency is overrated The expression "referential transparency" itself is already confusing and subject to interpretation, according to whether you're in the context of natural, functional or imperative languages. In any of those contexts however, referential transparency is generally regarded as a Good Thing(tm). In computer science for example, it helps to reason about programs, prove them, optimize them, and even enables some paradigms such as normal order (lazy) evaluation. In this talk, we claim that referential transparency is overrated because it also limits your expressive power. We demonstrate some neat and tricky things that we can do only when referential transparency is broken, and we explain the language constructs and techniques that allow us to break it intentionally, both at the regular and meta-programming levels. Such tools include duality of syntax and syntax extension, mixing of different scoping policies, intentional variable capture and free variable injection, lexical communication channels, anaphoric macros. Please fasten your seat belts, as we're going to explore mostly uncharted territory. Whether these techniques are considered extremely powerful, extremely unsafe, or extremely bad style is a matter of personal taste. In fact, they are probably all of that, and much more... -- My new Jazz CD entitled "Roots and Leaves" is out!

[Seminaire-LRDE] Mercredi 10 déc 2014: Une nouvelle approche pour la gestion de la mémoire avec CUDA -- Raphaël Boissel

by Akim Demaille

Chers collègues, La prochaine session du séminaire Performance et Généricité du LRDE (Laboratoire de Recherche et Développement de l'EPITA) aura lieu le Mercredi 10 décembre 2014 (11h00--12h00), Salle L0 du LRDE. Elle intéressera sans doute tous ceux qui travaillent avec des GPUs. Nous vous rappelons par ailleurs que la séance suivante aura lieu le mercredi 17 décembre 2014, voir plus bas dans ce message. L'entrée du séminaire est libre. Merci de bien vouloir diffuser cette information le plus largement possible. N'hésitez pas à nous faire parvenir vos suggestions d'orateurs. Au programme du Mercredi 10 décembre 2014 : * 11h: Une nouvelle approche pour la gestion de la mémoire avec CUDA -- Raphaël Boissel, EPITA, CSI https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit Dans de nombreux domaines, de plus en plus de personnes cherchent à améliorer les performances de leurs programmes en faisant appel à une technique appelée le GPGPU: un ensemble d’outils et de techniques permettant d’utiliser le GPU d’une machine afin de lui déléguer d'autres calculs que les traditionnelles routines de dessins. Cependant, écrire un programme qui exploite à la fois le GPU et le CPU n’est pas une tâche facile. Même lorsque les algorithmes se prêtent bien à la programmation GPU il arrive que le gain en performance soit décevant. L’un des principaux problèmes reste la gestion de la mémoire et surtout du transfert de données entre le GPU et le CPU. En effet l'optimisation les temps de transfert est délicate et peut nécessiter plusieurs jours d’analyse et de réécriture pour obtenir de bonnes performances. CUDA offre de nouveaux outils pour résoudre ce problème. Des outils de profilage de code permettent de voir où se situe les problèmes de transfert. UVM (Unified Virtual Memory), le nouveau modèle de gestion de la mémoire, permet de tirer pleinement parti de CUDA bien plus facilement que par le passé. C’est à l’utilisation de ces nouvelles techniques que nous nous intéressons dans cette présentation. -- Étudiant au LRDE dans la majeure CSI (Calcul Scientifique et Image), Raphaël a fait son stage de fin d’étude chez NVidia, dans l’équipe CUDA driver. Il travaillait au sein de l'équipe sur UVM sur l’implémentation de nouvelles fonctionnalités pour ce nouveau modèle de gestion de la mémoire. Au programme du Mercredi 17 décembre 2014 : * 11h: D’un MOOC à l'autre -- Christian Queinnec, UPMC, LIP6 http://lip6.fr/Christian.Queinnec/ Au printemps 2014, j'ai animé un MOOC d'initiation à l'informatique, centré sur la programmation récursive. Bien que loin d'être massif, ce MOOC a permis d'expérimenter ce nouveau medium ainsi que de mettre à l'épreuve une infrastructure de correction automatisée. L'exposé portera sur ces deux aspects et présentera également les nouveautés prévues pour la prochaine édition de ce MOOC. -- Lispeur depuis 1974, Unixien depuis 1984, HDR depuis 1988, et depuis peu professeur émérite de l’UPMC.

[Lrde] Publication accepted at VISAPP 2015

by Myriam Robert-Seidowsky

We are happy to announce that the following paper has been accepted to the 10th International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications (VISAPP) that will take place in Berlin, on March 11 - 14, 2015: A self-adaptive likelihood function for tracking with particle filter Séverine Dubuisson (1), Myriam Robert-Seidowsky (2) and Jonathan Fabrizio (2) (1) CNRS, UMR 7222, ISIR, F-75005, Paris, France (2) LRDE-EPITA, 14-16, rue Voltaire, F-94276, Le Kremlin Bicêtre, France Abstract: The particle filter is known to be efficient for visual tracking. However, its parameters are empirically fixed, depending on the target application, the video sequences and the context. In this paper, we introduce a new algorithm which automatically adjusts ``on-line" two majors of them: the correction and the propagation parameters. Our purpose is to determine, for each frame of a video, the optimal value of the correction parameter and to adjust the propagation one to improve the tracking performance. On one hand, our experimental results show that the common settings of particle filter are sub-optimal. On another hand, we prove that our approach achieves a lower tracking error without needing tuning these parameters. Our adaptive method allows to track objects in complex conditions (illumination changes, cluttered background, etc.) without adding any computational cost compared to the common usage with fixed parameters. -- Myriam Robert-Seidowsky - LRDE/EPITA
