1 There is a vast set of compiler flags that can be used to build Chrome for 2 ChromeOS. This option space has not been explored before. This directory 3 provides an infrastructure to build Chrome with certain flag combinations, test 4 it, gather results and prepare a fresh batch of flags to repeat the process. The 5 infrastructure supports plug-in modules that implement algorithms for searching 6 in the N-Dimensional space of compiler flag combinations. 7 8 Currently, three different algorithms are built, namely genetic algorithm, hill 9 climbing and negative flag iterative elimination. The module 'testing_batch.py' 10 contains the testing of these algorithms. 11 12 To run the script, type in python testing_batch.py. 13 14 For further information about the project, please refer to the design document 15 at: 16 17 https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/document/d/19iE9rhszTWjISBpKJ3qK8uBCoUjs0o4etWDRkyEeUOw/ 18 19 There is also a presentation slide available at: 20 21 https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/presentation/d/13rS9jALXffbP48YsF0-bsqovrVBfgzEud4e-XpavOdA/edit#slide=id.gf880fcd4_180 22
