LabPal has been under development for more than four years, and comes with detailed documentation and API reference.

Computer magazine

A good starting point is an article published in IEEE Computer, the flagship magazine of the IEEE Computer Society. In 9 pages, it gives an overview of LabPal and its main features. You can cite this paper as follows:

• S. Hallé, R. Khoury, M. Awesso. (2018). Streamlining the Inclusion of Computer Experiments In a Research Paper. IEEE Computer 51(11): 78-89. DOI: 10.1109/MC.2018.2876075 (Read on ResearchGate)

User manual

A complete reference is the LabPal User Manual, a 80+ page document that is freely available online on GitBook. In this book, you learn the basics of LabPal, as well as its advanced features:

• Create and transform tables, plots and macros
• Slice a set of parameters using regions
• Distribute experiments across multiple hosts
• Save and restore the contents of a lab
• Automatically integrate results into a LaTeX document

API reference

LabPal also has an API reference that is automatically generated from Javadoc comments inside its source code.
