CPLUG is excited to host a talk this Saturday by Bash evangelist and ASM madman Timothy Goya, who will be discussing advanced makefile design, code coverage analysis, and low-level application profiling. No prior experience in these areas are required, but come prepared to learn!

Students in or planning to take Dr. Staley’s CPE 305 class are encouraged to attend, as the skills taught will be valuable for this course especially.

Thanks, and we hope to see you there!
