Details:
Make has many wonderful features to greatly facilitate very complex data
analysis scenarios and parallelize them with minimal coding.
As more researchers are getting familiar with advanced Make usage in Maneage,
they are designing interesting Makefiles for their research that exploit very
interesting/advanced features of Make that they have found.
So, to help in spreading the useful techniques, I propose to hold something
like an annual Makefile contest, for Makefiles related data analysis. We can
even apply for grants/sponsorship and give prizes to the winners.
Each application/participant would need to accompany the Makefile with a
README file that describes the special techniques used and how they benefit
from those techniques.
We can then setup a set of criteria for evaluating the submissions. For
example, define points on the actual problem to be solved, optimal
parallelization strategy, "elegant" design, good comments/documentation, etc.
We can then select the best submissions and promote them in a special page on
maneage.org.
This was brought up after a discussion with Zahra Sharbaf, while discussing a
very elegantly designed and highly optimized (in terms of parallelization)
Makefile that we have been working on as part of her project (which will soon
be published). It employs very interesting Make features, but they may be too
problem-specific to discuss generally.
A contest like this, would allow sharing of all this valuable experience with
the "Maneager" community :-).
