We examine the problem of containing buffer overflow attacks in a safe and efficient manner. Briefly, we automatically augment source code to dynamically catch stack and heap-based...
Abstract. Several tools have been developed for the estimation of software reliability. However, they are highly specialized in the approaches they implement and the particular pha...
Which components of a large software system are the most defect-prone? In a study on a large SAP Java system, we evaluated and compared a number of defect predictors, based on cod...

We propose an automated compositional approach for component-based performance engineering, called the CB-SPE. It adapts to a CB framework the concepts and steps of the wellknown ...
Prediction of fault prone software components is one of the most researched problems in software engineering. Many statistical techniques have been proposed but there is no consen...
