Parallel Debug: A Path to a Better Big Data Diaspora
This article describes a methodology—parallel debug—as well as a supporting Jenkins framework, enabled by the availability of massive processor and disc farms which are commonplace among chip design projects. Parallel debug is an objective, disciplined methodology wherein the engineer changes one and only one aspect of a complex problem based on a hypothesis, and then tests the hypothesis. That is to say, it's the scientific method repackaged as a debug technique.
