The 4th article of my series about cross-language microbenchmarking got published:
Gradle plugins galore for CroLaBeFra!

Here the link to my all-in-one POC project.

Sometimes, life is really ridiculous. You are writing a blog post and promise yourself to continue this new habit, baam two years went by. That's not fair.
But I've been busy these days, working on a cross-language benchmarking framework called "CroLaBeFra", simple as can be, isn't it. ;-)
Check out my recent blog posts on my company's website!

• Part 1: Benchmarks with JMH run with Gradle
• Part 2: C/C++ projects with Gradle and microbbenchmarking with Hayai
• Part 3: Git Submodule magic and how it might become useful for benchmarking

And while benchmarking and seeing how bad my old old C++ code performs, I got fascinated by the idea, to start a new version of Chroma, written in Java :-). Addictive....
Feel free to try it!

Cheers

Hi all,
over three years elapsed since my last real post. I live near Munich today, got married, left my comfortable scientific environment and entered the world of Java Technologies at comSysto. Sounds boring? Nope, it isn't at all! Today, I think I have learnt enough in the last years to start writing something about it. I even feel to be able to tell stuff, no one told before. Okay, maybe just a feeling, because everything was already told and written out there. But the feeling counts.

The first I need, is some reputation... ;)

But that doesn't mean that I'm no longer interested in Computer Graphics. Recently, Jo Hanika et al published a new paper on rendering images with realistic lenses. Maybe I should also give my C skills a chance and migrate Chroma to C++11, or continue on my Java8 raytracer? Hm, I will tell you soon ;).
So long!
Ben

I am very proud to mention the publication of a paper, which is a summary of the topics I wrote about in my diploma thesis. The famous "Computer Graphics Forum" accepted it after quite some revisions.

At this point I'd also like to say Thanks to Holger Dammertz, Johannes Hannika and Hendrik Lensch for the great support and revision work!
