Abstract. This paper presents the design, implementation and experimental evaluation of a practical region-based partial dead code elimination (PDE) algorithm on predicated code in...
Indirect jump instructions are used to implement increasinglycommon programming constructs such as virtual function calls, switch-case statements, jump tables, and interface calls...
Hoare and He's unifying theories of programming (UTP) is a model of alphabetised relations expressed as predicates; it supports development in several programming paradigms. T...
Universal Coalgebra provides the notion of a coalgebra as the natural mathematical generalization of state-based evolving systems such as (infinite) words, trees, and transition s...
Several researchers are using evolutionary search methods to search for test data with which to test a program. The fitness or cost function depends on the test goal but almost in...
