The number of defects is an important indicator of software quality. Agile software development methods put an explicit requirement on automation and permanently low defect rates. ...
Abstract. To understand the effect of code complexity on static analysis, thirty-five format string vulnerabilities were studied. We analyzed two code samples for each vulnerabilit...
As a culture, object-orientation encourages programmers to create objects, both short- and long-lived, without concern for cost. Excessive object creation and initialization can ca...
We have proposed a fault-prone software module detection method using text-filtering approach, called Fault-proneness filtering. Even though the fault-proneness filtering achieved...
Existing software systems contain a significant amount of duplicated code. Such redundancy can negatively impact program correctness, since inconsistent updates to duplicated code ...
