Discovering Program's Behavioral Patterns by Inferring Graph-Grammars from Execution Traces
Frequent patterns in program executions represent recurring sequences of events. These patterns can be used to reveal the hidden structures of a program, and ease the comprehensio...

Dynamically Discovering Likely Program Invariants to Support Program Evolution
ÐExplicitly stated program invariants can help programmers by identifying program properties that must be preserved when modifying code. In practice, however, these invariants are...
