This paper presents an approach, based on formal methods, to the modification of reusable software components. From a two-tiered hierarchy of reusable software components, the existing components that are more general than the query specification are retrieved from the hierarchy. The specification for a more general retrieved component is compared to the query specification to determine what changes need to be applied to the corresponding program component in order to make it satisfy the query specification. This paper also describes an approach for assisting in the modification of more general components and gives an example to demonstrate its use.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":412417,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings KBSE '94.

A declarative domain theory defines the semantics of a domain-oriented specification language and its relationship to implementation-level subroutines. Formal specification development and reuse is made accessible to users through an intuitive graphical interface that guides them in creating diagrams denoting formal specifications. Deductive program synthesis ensures that specifications are correctly implemented. This approach has been implemented in AMPHION, a generic KBSE system that targets scientific subroutine libraries. AMPHION has been applied to the domain of solar system kinematics. AMPHION enables space scientists to develop, modify, and reuse specifications an order of magnitude more rapidly than manual program development. Program synthesis is efficient and completely automatic.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":412417,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings KBSE '94.

A previous paper, R.J. Hall(1993), described a new validation proof technique, sound scenario generalization, which computes and proves a general validation lemma from a specific requirement-scenario and a candidate specification. That paper left open how the user should employ the technique to systematically validate a complete system. This paper describes an approach, based on a novel knowledge structure called a library of generalized scenario fragments, that combines the advantages of traditional software testing and automated theorem proving of specifications, avoiding most of their shortcomings. I also describe preliminary experience with ISAT-VA, a prototype of such an assistant.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":412417,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings KBSE '94.

Advances in the support of upstream activities have focussed on assisting software developers. We examine the possibility of extending computer-based support in the software development process to allow end users to participate, providing feedback directly to developers. The approach uses the notion of \"agents\" developed in artificial intelligence research and concepts of participatory design. Namely, agents monitor end users working with prototype systems and report mismatches between developers' expectations and a system's actual usage. At the same time, the agents provide end users with an opportunity to communicate with developers, either synchronously or asynchronously. The use of agents is based on actual software development experiences.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":412417,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings KBSE '94.

Views provide a clean, flexible, and efficient mechanism for combining reusable software components. A view describes how an application data type implements features of an abstract type; it provides a bidirectional mapping between a generic concept and a particular implementation of that concept. Parameterizing a generic procedure by means of views allows a single copy of the procedure to be specialized for a variety of application data types and target languages. Both composition of views and multiple views of the same data as different abstract types are often required. Automated support makes it easy to create views and to generate specialized code for an application in a desired target language. These techniques have been implemented. Examples are presented that illustrate combination of components through views to specialize a generic procedure and to instantiate a software framework.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":412417,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings KBSE '94.

Yet automated tools can clearly recognize portions of the design. That suggests exploring environments in which programmer and system work together to understand legacy software. This paper describes such an environment that supports programmer and system cooperating to extract an object-oriented design from legacy software systems. It combines an automated program understanding component that recognizes standard implementations of domain independent plans with with a structured notebook that the programmer uses to link object-oriented design primitives to arbitrary source code fragments. This jointly extracted information is used to support conceptual queries about the program's code and design.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":412417,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings KBSE '94.

MULTI-TAC is a program synthesis system that generates Lisp code to solve combinatorial integer constraint satisfaction problems. The use of algorithm schemas enables machine learning techniques to be applied in a very focused manner. These learning techniques enable the system to be sensitive to the distribution of instances that the system is expected to encounter. We describe two applications of machine learning in MULTI-TAC. The system learns domain specific heuristics, and then learns the most effective combination of heuristics on the training instances. We also describe empirical results that reinforce the viability of our approach.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":412417,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings KBSE '94.
