is an important optimization for programs that use procedural abstraction. Because inlining trades code size for execution speed, the effectiveness of an inlining algorithm is det...
Model Checking is a well-known and fully automatic technique for checking software properties, usually given as temporal logic formulae on the program variables. Most model checke...
Query optimizers in current database systems are designed to pick a single efficient plan for a given query based on current statistical properties of the data. However, different...
