Recent work in applying causal modeling (Bayesian networks) to software engineering has resulted in improved decision support systems for software project managers. Once the causa...

Directed model checking algorithms focus computation resources in the error-prone areas of concurrent systems. The algorithms depend on some empirical analysis to report their per...
White-box testing is an important method for the early detection of errors during software development. In this process test case generation plays a crucial role, defining appropr...
In this paper, we propose a fine-grained coupling metrics suite for aspect-oriented (AO) systems, to measure software changes during system evolution. We also present a correlati...
This paper describes a study performed in an industrial setting that attempts to build predictive models to identify parts of a Java system with a high probability of fault. The s...
