Embedded systems are often used in safety-critical environments. Thus, thorough testing of them is mandatory. A quite active research area is the automatic test-case generation fo...
We describe the use of grammars as an approach to automatic function definition in Grammatical Evolution. The automatic generation of functions allows the evolution of both the fu...
Abstract. Writing an optimizing back end is expensive, in part because it requires mastery of both a target machine and a compiler's internals. We separate these concerns by i...
An interface definition language (IDL) is a nontraditional language for describing interfaces between software components. IDL compilers generate “stubs” that provide separat...
