Identifying and Visualizing Computational Hotspots in Path Tracing

Path tracing is a well-known light transport algorithm used to render photo-realistic images. However, it is an expensive algorithm with an active area of research for improving its efficiency. In our work, we present a method to measure and visualize the regions of high computational cost for unidirectional path tracers. We have defined metrics...

TestKnight: An Interactive Assistant to Stimulate Test Engineering

Software testing is one of the most important aspects of modern software development. To ensure the quality of the software, developers should ideally write and execute automated tests regularly as their code-base evolves. TestKnight, a plugin for the IntelliJ IDEA integrated development environment (IDE), aims to help Java developers improve...
