It first translates a multi-threaded C program into a bounded nondeterministic sequential C program that preserves bounded reachability for all round-robin schedules up to a given number of rounds. It then reuses existing high-performance bounded model checkers as sequential verification backends. Lazy-CSeq handles the full C language and the main parts of the POSIX thread API, such as dynamic thread creation and deletion, and synchronization via thread join, locks, and condition variables. It supports assertion checking and deadlock detection, and returns counterexamples in case of errors. Lazy-CSeq outperforms other concurrency verification tools and has won the concurrency category of the last two SV-COMP verification competitions.","PeriodicalId":6586,"journal":{"name":"2015 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"807-812"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87362129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper we propose a novel, semi-supervised approach named DECA (Development Emails Content Analyzer) that uses Natural Language Parsing to classify the content of development emails according to their purpose (e.g. feature request, opinion asking, problem discovery, solution proposal, information giving etc), identifying email elements that can be used for specific tasks. A study based on data from Qt and Ubuntu, highlights a high precision (90%) and recall (70%) of DECA in classifying email content, outperforming traditional machine learning strategies. Moreover, we successfully used DECA for re-documenting source code of Eclipse and Lucene, improving the recall, while keeping high precision, of a previous approach based on ad-hoc heuristics.","PeriodicalId":6586,"journal":{"name":"2015 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE)","volume":"28 1","pages":"12-23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74605901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As architectures have a profound effect on the operational life-time of the software and the quality of the service provision, architectural stability could be considered a primary criterion towards achieving the long-livety of the software. Architectural stability is envisioned as the next step in quality attributes, combining many inter-related qualities. This research suggests the notion of behavioural stability as a primary criterion for evaluating whether the architecture maintains achieving the expected quality attributes, maintaining architecture robustness, and evaluating how well the architecture accommodates run-time evolutionary changes. The research investigates the notion of architecture stability at run-time in the context of self-adaptive software architectures. We expect to define, characterise and analyse this intuitive concept, as well as identify the consequent trade-offs to be dynamically managed and enhance the self-adaptation process for a long-lived software.","PeriodicalId":6586,"journal":{"name":"2015 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE)","volume":"27 1","pages":"886-889"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83221268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This runtime interaction between JavaScript and the DOM is error-prone and challenging to test. In order to unit test a JavaScript function that has read/write DOM operations, a DOM instance has to be provided as a test fixture. This DOM fixture needs to be in the exact structure expected by the function under test. Otherwise, the test case can terminate prematurely due to a null exception. Generating these fixtures is challenging due to the dynamic nature of JavaScript and the hierarchical structure of the DOM. We present an automated technique, based on dynamic symbolic execution, which generates test fixtures for unit testing JavaScript functions. Our approach is implemented in a tool called ConFix. Our empirical evaluation shows that ConFix can effectively generate tests that cover DOM-dependent paths. We also find that ConFix yields considerably higher coverage compared to an existing JavaScript input generation technique.","PeriodicalId":6586,"journal":{"name":"2015 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE)","volume":"21 1","pages":"190-200"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85113352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We describe challenges regarding the evolution of avionics software by means of real-world evolution scenarios that arise in industrial practice. A key role plays a legally-binding certification process, called qualification, which is responsible for most of the development effort and cost. To reduce effort and cost, we propose a novel generative approach to develop qualifiable avionics software by combining model-based and product-line technology. Using this approach, we have already generated code that is running on the NH90 helicopter and that is in the process of replacing the current system code. Based on an interview with two professional developers at Airbus and an analysis of the software repository of the NH90, we systematically compare our approach with established development approaches in the avionics domain, in terms of implementation and qualification effort.","PeriodicalId":6586,"journal":{"name":"2015 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE)","volume":"42 1","pages":"726-736"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84620081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This necessity has resulted in the introduction of responsive Web design (RWD), which usescomplex cascading style sheets (CSS) to fluidly modify a Web site's appearance depending on the viewport width of the device in use. Although existing tools may support the testing of responsive Web sites, they are time consuming and error-prone to use because theyrequire manual screenshot inspection at specified viewport widths. Addressing these concerns, this paper presents a method thatcan automatically detect potential layout faults in responsively designed Web sites. To experimentally evaluate this approach, weimplemented it as a tool, called ReDeCheck, and applied itto 5 real-world web sites that vary in both their approach toresponsive design and their complexity.

Despite the proven success of language fuzzing, there is a severe lack of tool support for fuzzing statically-typed languages with advanced type systems because existing fuzzing techniques cannot effectively and automatically generate well-typed programs that use sophisticated types. In this work we describe how to automatically generate well-typed programs that use sophisticated type systems by phrasing the problem of well-typed program generation in terms of Constraint Logic Programming (CLP). In addition, we describe how to specifically target the typechecker implementation for testing, unlike all existing work which ignores the typechecker. We focus on typechecker precision bugs, soundness bugs, and consistency bugs. We apply our techniques to Rust, a complex, industrial-strength language with a sophisticated type system.","PeriodicalId":6586,"journal":{"name":"2015 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE)","volume":"61 1","pages":"482-493"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80587377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While this provides greater flexibility for programmers, it also makes PHP programs harder to precisely analyze and understand.

We then evaluate these patterns across a corpus of 20 open-source systems totaling more than 3.7 million lines of PHP, showing how often these patterns occur in actual PHP code, demonstrating their effectiveness at statically determining the names that can be used at runtime, and exploring anti-patterns that indicate when the identifier computation is truly dynamic.","PeriodicalId":6586,"journal":{"name":"2015 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE)","volume":"40 1","pages":"563-573"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91346944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mesbah","doi":"10.1109/ASE.2015.23","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ASE.2015.23","url":null,"abstract":"To programmatically interact with the user interface of a web application, element locators are used to select and retrieve elements from the Document Object Model (DOM). Element locators are used in JavaScript code, Cascading stylesheets, and test cases to interact with the runtime DOM of the webpage. Constructing these element locators is, however, challenging due to the dynamic nature of the DOM. We find that locators written by web developers can be quite complex, and involve selecting multiple DOM elements. We present an automated technique for synthesizing DOM element locators using examples provided interactively by the developer. The main insight in our approach is that the problem of synthesizing complex multi-element locators can be expressed as a constraint solving problem over the domain of valid DOM states in a web application. We implemented our synthesis technique in a tool called LED, which provides an interactive drag and drop support inside the browser for selecting positive and negative examples. We find that LED supports at least 86% of the locators used in the JavaScript code of deployed web applications, and that the locators synthesized by LED have a recall of 98% and a precision of 63%. LED is fast, taking only 0.23 seconds on average to synthesize a locator.","PeriodicalId":6586,"journal":{"name":"2015 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE)","volume":"60 1","pages":"331-341"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88325049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
