The high cost of software maintenance could be reduced by automatically improving the design of object-oriented programs without altering their behaviour. We have constructed a so...
—Software instrumentation is a powerful and flexible technique for analyzing the dynamic behavior of programs. By inserting extra code in an application, it is possible to study...

Previous work shows the possibility of predicting the cache miss rate (CMR) for all inputs of a program. However, most optimization techniques need to know more than the miss rate ...
A programming system is the user interface between the programmer and the computer. Programming is a notoriously difficult activity, and some of this difficulty can be attribute...
This paper describes a novel approach to high-level agent programming based on a highly developed logical theory of action. The user provides a specification of the agents’ bas...
