Program integration attempts to construct a merged program from several related but different variants of a base program. The merged program must include the changed computations of the variants as well as the computations ...

Program dependence graphs have been used in program optimization, vectorization, and parallelization. They have also been used as the internal representation for programs in programming environments, as well as for ...

The execution behavior of a program component is defined as the sequence of values produced at the component during program execution. This paper presents an efficient algorithm for detecting program components ? in one ...

This paper defines a new variant of program slicing, called specialization slicing, and presents an algorithm for the specialization-slicing problem that creates an optimal output slice. An algorithm for specialization ...
