This course empowers quantitative developers with sophisticated C++ techniques specifically designed for financial modeling. It covers essential computational algorithms, data structures, derivatives pricing models, risk analytics, and high-performance implementations. Through a comprehensive, project-driven curriculum, the course bridges theoretical finance with production-quality code, enabling professionals to construct accurate, high-speed simulation systems critical for trading, market analysis, and risk management.

Writing secure C and C++ code requires rigorous defense against malicious exploitation, memory corruption, and input validation bypasses. This program examines vulnerability patterns including buffer overflows, use-after-free, integer overflows, and type confusion. Participants apply secure coding guidelines, static analysis tools, and defensive programming techniques to eliminate weaknesses, enforce input sanitization, and deliver hardened software resilient against cyberattacks.

Is C++ appropriate for embedded systems like microcontrollers and real-time operating systems?

Should object-oriented programming be employed in microcontrollers?

Is C++ too abstracted from the hardware to ensure efficiency?

This instructor-led, live training tackles these questions by demonstrating through discussion and practical exercises how C++ can be utilized to develop embedded systems with code that is precise, readable, and efficient. Participants apply theoretical knowledge by creating a sample embedded application in C++.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Grasp the principles of object-oriented modeling, embedded software programming, and real-time programming
• Generate code for embedded systems that is compact, fast, and secure
• Prevent code bloat caused by templates, exceptions, and other language features
• Comprehend the challenges associated with using C++ in safety-critical and real-time systems
• Debug a C++ program on a target device

This two-day course is designed for C++ developers eager to integrate the C++11 standard into their professional practice. It is especially beneficial for financial application developers, covering all new features with practical coding examples to be executed during lab sessions.

This instructor-led, live training in Greece (online or onsite) provides an introductory exploration of C++, the Qt GUI framework, and various communication technologies such as ZeroMQ and Protocol Buffers, which can be used for writing distributed applications.

By the end of this training, participants will have the necessary knowledge and practical experience to write and compile an application using C++, Qt, and gcc on Linux CentOS 6/7. Participants will also integrate asynchronous messaging capabilities using ZeroMQ and Protocol Buffers.

This training programme aims to present C++ as the natural extension of C for object-oriented embedded system development. Since C++ is built upon C, this course facilitates a smooth transition from C to C++, providing an in-depth look at the underlying implementation mechanisms of C++. This insight is particularly crucial when deploying C++ within the constrained resources of an embedded environment. The C++ standard has recently undergone significant updates with the introduction of C++11, and C++14 is now emerging. This course covers key features introduced in these revisions that are highly beneficial for embedded development, such as high-performance memory management, concurrency in multicore environments, and low-level, hardware-adjacent programming.

GOAL/BENEFITS

The primary objective of this course is to ensure that you can utilize C++ in a "correct way" within embedded contexts.

• Present C++ as an object-oriented alternative for embedded systems.
• Highlight the similarities and differences between C++ and C.
• Understand various memory management strategies, with a focus on move semantics introduced in C++11.
• Examine the underlying implementation to see how different C++ paradigms translate into machine code.
• Utilize templates to create type-safe, high-level abstractions for bare-metal, hardware-close programming—including memory-mapped I/O and interrupts—especially leveraging variadic templates from C++11.
• Explore useful design patterns specifically applicable to the embedded domain.
• Engage in practical exercises to reinforce key concepts.

AUDIENCE/PARTICIPANTS

This training is designed for C++ programmers who wish to begin applying C++ in an embedded system context.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE

The course requires fundamental knowledge of C++ programming, equivalent to our "C++ – Level 1" and "C++ Level 2 – Introducing C++11" courses.

PRACTICAL EXERCISES

Throughout the training, you will practice the presented concepts through a series of exercises. We will use the open-source Integrated Development Environment (IDE) from Eclipse.
