Existing software systems contain a significant amount of duplicated code. Such redundancy can negatively impact program correctness, since inconsistent updates to duplicated code ...
In modern software engineering, researchers regard a software system as an organic life form that must continue to evolve to remain successful. Unfortunately, little is known abou...
Abstract. Software systems obey the 80/20 rule: aggressively optimizing a vital few execution paths yields large speedups. However, finding the vital few paths can be difficult, e...
