Allinea DDT Training

The secret to successful debugging is in the methods and in the tools that are used. We show the easiest ways to get to the bottom of complex problems using Allinea DDT, and develop methods that make problems disappear quickly. You will learn quickly how to track down suspected memory problems or random application crashes on even the largest parallel or GPU codes.
