Genetic Improvement of Software (Dagstuhl Seminar 18052)

Authors: Justyna Petke, Claire Le Goues, Stephanie Forrest, and William B. Langdon

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 8, Issue 1 (2018)


Abstract
We document the program and the immediate outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 18052 "Genetic Improvement of Software". The seminar brought together researchers in Genetic Improvement (GI) and related areas of software engineering to investigate what is achievable with current technology and the current impediments to progress and how GI can affect the software development process. Several talks covered the state-of-the-art and work in progress. Seven emergent topics have been identified ranging from the nature of the GI search space through benchmarking and practical applications. The seminar has already resulted in multiple research paper publications. Four by participants of the seminar will be presented at the GI workshop co-located with the top conference in software engineering - ICSE. Several researchers started new collaborations, results of which we hope to see in the near future.

Automated Program Repair (Dagstuhl Seminar 17022)

Authors: Sunghun Kim, Claire Le Goues, Michael Pradel, and Abhik Roychoudhury

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 7, Issue 1 (2017)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 17022 "Automated Program Repair". The seminar participants presented and discussed their research through formal and informal presentations. In particular, the seminar covered work related to search-based program repair, semantic program repair, and repair of non-functional properties. As a result of the seminar, several participants plan to launch various follow-up activities, such as a program repair competition, which would help to further establish and guide this young field of research.

Toward Semantic Foundations for Program Editors

Authors: Cyrus Omar, Ian Voysey, Michael Hilton, Joshua Sunshine, Claire Le Goues, Jonathan Aldrich, and Matthew A. Hammer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 71, 2nd Summit on Advances in Programming Languages (SNAPL 2017)


Abstract
Programming language definitions assign formal meaning to complete programs. Programmers, however, spend a substantial amount of time interacting with incomplete programs - programs with holes, type inconsistencies and binding inconsistencies - using tools like program editors and live programming environments (which interleave editing and evaluation). Semanticists have done comparatively little to formally characterize (1) the static and dynamic semantics of incomplete programs; (2) the actions available to programmers as they edit and inspect incomplete programs; and (3) the behavior of editor services that suggest likely edit actions to the programmer based on semantic information extracted from the incomplete program being edited, and from programs that the system has encountered in the past. This paper serves as a vision statement for a research program that seeks to develop these "missing" semantic foundations. Our hope is that these contributions, which will take the form of a series of simple formal calculi equipped with a tractable metatheory, will guide the design of a variety of current and future interactive programming tools, much as various lambda calculi have guided modern language designs. Our own research will apply these principles in the design of Hazel, an experimental live lab notebook programming environment designed for data science tasks. We plan to co-design the Hazel language with the editor so that we can explore concepts such as edit-time semantic conflict resolution mechanisms and mechanisms that allow library providers to install library-specific editor services.
