With automated bug fixing, we can automatically fix 50% of all bugs at a cost of $8. A fantastic research result from the small world of Software Engineering research. But how can we turn these inventions into innovations? References [bibtex file=http://www.citeulike.org/bibtex/user/greger/tag/20120308?fieldmap=posted-at:posted-date&clean_urls=0]
In a brilliant and hilarious article Zeller, Zimmerman and Bird points out how easy it is to find correlations when mining software archives. In the article, their (mock) argument is that all program errors must enter the source code through the keyboard and thus certain keys introduce more errors. By…
Apparently, Search Based Software Engineering or SBSE celebrates 10 years as a research area this year. A bibliometric analysis of 740 contributions was recently published in honor of this landmark. I wonder if my own small contribution is included there? References [bibtex file=http://www.citeulike.org/bibtex/user/greger/tag/20110831a?fieldmap=posted-at:posted-date&clean_urls=0]
I find this rather exciting, generating / optimizing your whole test suite automatically.
Together with Wasif Afzal, Richard Torkar and Robert Feldt I have submitted a paper for publication at the SSBSE 2010 conference. The title of the paper is “Search-based prediction of fault-slip-through in large software projects”.
