Presentation Transcript

  1. Cloud-Based Science? Bertrand Meyer Chair of Software Engineering, ETH Zurich Eiffel Software, Santa Barbara Cloud Futures panel

  2. The message The cloud changes everything Research will move from experiment-based to data-based Computational science will move from simulation to analysis Inductive approaches will get a new boost

  3. Benefits for science Scale Realism Surprises Openness Reproducibility

  4. Issues (a very partial list) Programming concurrent applications Reliability Security Scaling up

  5. Modern science is inductive Karl Popper Gaston Bachelard Thomas Kuhn

  6. Terra incognita: software engineering Empirical software engineering (mining software archives) Program verification: • Model checking, SAT solving • Proofs • Automated testing (See our AutoTest tool, IEEE Computer, September 2009)

  7. An example: CloudStudio

  8. Verification as A Matter Of Course Boogieprover Sep. logicprover Interactiveprover AutoFix Arbiter Programmer Suggestions EiffelStudio Test execution Test case generation Suggestions AutoTest Test results
