Development Tools Tutorial track

This proposal has been rejected.

Wednesday, August 19, 2015 from 2:00 – 4:30pm
Room 3AB (WSCC)
 

In a departure from prior Plumbers tradition, we are pleased to announce not a Development Tools Microconference, but rather a set of Development Tools tutorials, including interactive tutorials, demos, and short presentations. Topics include Coccinelle (Julia Lawall), testing and debugging tools (Shuah Khan), issues with copying and pasting Linux kernel code (Michael Godfrey), and LLVM/clang and the Linux kernel (Behan Webster).
