Detecting Inefficiently-Used Containers to Avoid Bloat
Runtime bloat degrades significantly the performance and scalability of software systems. An important source of bloat is the inefficient use of containers. It is expensive to cre...

Bringing Extensibility to Verified Compilers
Verified compilers, such as Leroy's CompCert, are accompanied by a fully checked correctness proof. Both the compiler and proof are often constructed with an interactive proo...

Evaluating Iterative Optimization across 1000 Data Sets
While iterative optimization has become a popular compiler optimization approach, it is based on a premise which has never been truly evaluated: that it is possible to learn the b...

The Role of Prototyping in Software Development
The term software engineering arose in the 1960s to emphasize that the production of software should not be an art, as it was then (and sometimes still is today), but an engineeri...
