1 Step-wise refinement (SWR) asserts that complex programs can be derived from simple programs by progressively adding features. The length of a program specification is the number...
Motivated by improvements in constraint-solving technology and by the increase of routinely available computational power, partial-program synthesis is emerging as an effective a...
While a typical software component has a clearly specified (static) interface in terms of the methods and the input/output types they support, information about the correct sequen...
In complex systems, like robot plants, applications are built on top of a set of components, or devices. Each of them has particular individual constraints, and there are also log...
Code synthesis is routinely used in industry to generate GUIs, form lling applications, and database support code and is even used with COBOL. In this paper we consider the questi...
