Although data pow analysis was first developed for use in compilers, its usefulness is now recognized in many software tools. Because of its compiler origins, the computation of d...
The practice of image processing inherently requires software development. Creating this technology requires designing, implementing, debugging and testing software applications o...
In a C compiler, function calls are difficult to implement correctly because they must respect a platform-specific calling convention. But they are governed by a simple invariant...
Testing and code editing are interleaved activities during program development. When tests fail unexpectedly, the changes that caused the failure(s) are not always easy to find. W...
This paper introduces declarative event patterns (DEPs) as a means to implement protocols while improving their traceability, comprehensibility, and maintainability. DEPs are desc...
