One solution is

❖ Supercomputer

❖ In the case of FX10, •  CPU: 16 cores •  Memory: 32 GByte

7

× 4,800 nodes

However…

❖ The adoption rate for HPC is still low.

8

Domain-Specific techniques for using HPC? Only Fortran

and C?

My tool is imple-mented by

Prof. Chiba says

❖ Via collaboration of CREST project,

9

We can use Java, Ruby and Python on FX10!

Case Study

❖ Evaluate the impact that HPC can have on MSR analyses.

❖ Apply HPC (FX10) to Code Clone Detection.

10

Code Clone

❖ A code fragment that has identical or similar code fragments

Type-3 Clones

❖ Programmers often make some changes to code fragments after copy-and-paste.
