Using groupings of static analysis alerts to identify files likely to contain field failures
In this paper, we propose a technique for leveraging historical field failure records in conjunction with automated static analysis alerts to determine which alerts or sets of ale...

Parallel test generation and execution with Korat
We present novel algorithms for parallel testing of code that takes structurally complex test inputs. The algorithms build on the Korat algorithm for constraint-based generation o...

Fault and adversary tolerance as an emergent property of distributed systems' software architectures
Fault and adversary tolerance have become not only desirable but required properties of software systems because mission-critical systems are commonly distributed on large network...

Test suite prioritization by interaction coverage
Event-driven software (EDS) is a widely used class of software that takes sequences of events as input, changes state, and outputs new event sequences. Managing the size of tests ...

Explicit exception handling variability in component-based product line architectures
Separation of concerns is one of the overarching goals of exception handling in order to keep separate normal and exceptional behaviour of a software system. In the context of a s...

Extended exceptions for contingencies and their implications for the engineering process
We observed a general problem of sequential programs, which often results in design and programming errors in industrial software engineering projects, and propose a solution appr...
