The parsimony pressure method is perhaps the simplest and most frequently used method to control bloat in genetic programming. In this paper we first reconsider the size evolutio...
Feature modules are the building blocks of programs in software product lines (SPLs). A foundational assumption of feature-based program synthesis is that features are composed in...
XML transformations are very sensitive to types: XML types describe the tags and attributes of XML elements as well as the number, kind, and order of their sub-elements. Therefore,...
Most game programs have a large number of parameters that are crucial for their performance. Tuning these parameters by hand is rather difficult. Therefore automatic optimization a...
The developers of high-performance scientific applications often work in complex computing environments that place heavy demands on program analysis tools. The developers need to...
