Prerequisites
Good knowledge of some object-oriented programming language. CSE 788: Analysis and
Testing of Object-Oriented Software is useful, but
not required.
Seminar Description
Methods and tools for software analysis and testing play an important
role for improving programmer productivity and software
quality. Research in this area involves a mixture of theoretical
problems (e.g., design of new algorithms for software analysis),
system building (e.g., building tools for understanding and testing of
complex software), and experimental evaluation (e.g., applying the
tools to large real-world software systems).
This seminar explores research topics in software analysis and testing
for the purposes of program understanding, reengineering, testing,
verification, security, and performance optimization. The focus is
primarily on object-oriented software; in addition, topics related to
component-based software and distributed software will be
investigated.
Expected Work
The work will involve paper presentations from current conferences and
journals. The presentations will provide knowledge of basic and
advanced research topics in analysis and testing of complex software
systems.
