whitepaper Accelerating the performance validation of AJAX and Flex applications (podcast)2008-04-28 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  Download this webcast in podcast format!

Today's Web client environments are getting more complex to test as you need to capture information not just from simple HTTP-based pages but also from rich Internet applications that incorporate complex technologies like Adobe's Flex.

HP Software and Adobe have recently created a ground-breaking solution that helps you accurately report end-user performance results of your rich Web applications that leverage AJAX and the Flex technology. Based on HP Software solutions best practices and processes, this solution allows you to test end-to-end user performance of your next-generation Web applications and pinpoint performance bottlenecks that originate in the Flex application.

Listen to this TechRepublic Webcast, now available on demand, for information on these these key topics and more:
  • The new challenges in performance testing Flex/Flash applications
  • How to ensure Flex applications perform as expected when deployed in production
  • Measuring and benchmarking application performance
  • How to use the Flex Builder performance profiler to identify problem code

whitepaper Ensuring Code Quality in Multi-threaded Applications2007-12-01 Coverity
  Today, the world of software development is presented with a new challenge. To fully leverage this new class of multi-core hardware, software developers must change the way they create applications. By turning their focus to multi-threaded applications, developers will be able to take full advantage of multi-core devices and deliver software that meets the demands of the world. But this paradigm of multi-threaded software development adds a new wrinkle of complexity for those who care the utmost about software quality.

Concurrency defects such as race conditions and deadlocks are software defect types that are unique to multi-threaded applications. Complex and hard-to-find, these defects can quickly derail a software project. To avoid catastrophic failures in multi-threaded applications, software development organizations must understand how to identify and eliminate these deadly problems early in the application development lifecycle.
