   Software assistants in software engineering: a systematic mapping study
Savary-Leblanc M., Burgueño L., Cabot J., Le Pallec X., Gerard S. Software--Practice & Experience 53856-892, 2023.  Type: Article, Reviews: (1 of 2)

Imagine finding an error while developing a new product and then just clicking on your software assistant that then displays an appropriate debugging technique. Perhaps the tool also identifies the possible location of the fault. Perhaps the tool ...

  TinyVM: an energy-efficient execution infrastructure for sensor networks
Hong K., Park J., Kim S., Kim T., Kim H., Burgstaller B., Scholz B. Software--Practice & Experience 42(10): 1193-1209, 2012.  Type: Article

TinyVM has a typical stack architecture, but in this paper, no details of its instruction set or register structure are given. Rather, the authors present a complex infrastructure for creating energy-efficient execution images on a var...

  Comparison of adaptive random testing and random testing under various testing and debugging scenarios
Liu H., Kuo F., Chen T. Software--Practice & Experience 42(8): 1055-1074, 2012.  Type: Article

Testing and debugging remain the most practical means of assuring the quality of software. In particular, partition testing and random testing are widely adopted in test case selection. According to classic studies, partition testing i...

  An assistance tool employing a systematic methodology for GCC retargeting
Lin K., Chen P. Software--Practice & Experience 42(1): 19-36, 2012.  Type: Article

The GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) uses a set of files describing a target architecture to guide it in producing code for that architecture. In order to retarget GCC, a large number of interdependent aspects of the desired architecture ...

  Approximating Pareto optimal compiler optimization sequences--a trade-off between WCET, ACET and code size
Lokuciejewski P., Plazar S., Falk H., Marwedel P., Thiele L. Software--Practice & Experience 41(12): 1437-1458, 2011.  Type: Article

Worst-case execution time (WCET), average-case execution time (ACET), and code size are three statistics characterizing program quality. Compiler writers have developed optimizations by which a compiler can improve one or more of these...
