Automated fixing of programs with contracts
In program debugging, finding a failing run is only the first step; what about correcting the fault? Can we automate the second task as well as the first? The AutoFix-E tool au...

Proving memory safety of floating-point computations by combining static and dynamic program analysis
Whitebox fuzzing is a novel form of security testing based on dynamic symbolic execution and constraint solving. Over the last couple of years, whitebox fuzzers have found many ne...

On test repair using symbolic execution
When developers change a program, regression tests can fail not only due to faults in the program but also due to outof-date test code that does not reflect the desired behavior ...

Learning from 6, 000 projects: lightweight cross-project anomaly detection
Real production code contains lots of knowledge—on the domain, on the architecture, and on the environment. How can we leverage this knowledge in new projects? Using a novel lig...
