Creator:: Chu, Chengyun, 1974-
Abstract:: Prioritization techniques are used to schedule test cases to execute in a specific order to maximize some objective function. There are a variety of possible objective functions, such as a function that measures how quickly faults can be detected within the testing process, or a function that measures how fast...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: am lucky to work with such a good professor. Thanks also to Dr. Tim Budd, for serving as my minor

Creator:: Abraham, Robin
Abstract:: Spreadsheets are among the most widely used end-user programming systems. Unfortunately, there is a high incidence of errors in end-user spreadsheets, and some of these errors have high impact. In this dissertation, we describe techniques we have developed to help end users develop safer spreadsheets. As part of our research,...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Creator:: Mannan, Umme Ayda
Abstract:: Software systems are becoming an essential part of the lives of both individuals and organizations, and as a consequence, these systems are getting bigger and more complex. Because of this, the tasks of maintaining the quality in these complex software systems are becoming increasingly difficult. Furthermore, these systems are subject...
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: -wise average for each metrics across all projects. . . . . . . . . . . . 51 3.4 Cross correlation

Creator:: Liu, Yi
Abstract:: Like other scientific fields, computer science is in great need of experimentation to support, improve, disprove and even establish theories. One area in which experimental results are highly desired involves regression testing, which is performed on modified software to provide confidence that the software behaves correctly and that modifications have...
Resource Type:: Capstone Project
Full Text:: two types of cross-checks: (1) we obtained certain results independently using different instruments

Creator:: Sarkar, Chandan
Abstract:: Protecting end-users privacy and building trust are the two most important factors needed to support the growth of ecommerce. The increased dependence on the Internet for a wide variety of daily transactions causes a corresponding loss in privacy for many users, as virtually all websites collect data from users directly...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: Oberoi, Marie-Anne Midy, Chris Chambers, Tim Bauer for their support and brainstorming many crazy ideas

Creator:: Kollmansberger, Steven
Abstract:: Functional programming is concerned with referential transparency, that is, given a certain function and its parameter, that the result will always be the same. However, it seems that this is violated in applications involving uncertainty, such as rolling a dice. This thesis defines the background of probabilistic programming and domain-specific...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: Committee, namely, Margaret Burnett, Michael Quinn and Tim Budd, for taking time out of their busy

Creator:: Malishevsky, Alexey Grigorievich
Abstract:: Regression testing is an expensive software engineering activity intended to provide confidence that modifications to a software system have not introduced faults. Test case prioritization techniques help to reduce regression testing cost by ordering test cases in a way that better achieves testing objectives. In this thesis, we are interested...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Creator:: Smeltzer, Karl J.
Abstract:: Variability is an important and widely studied topic across domains such as version control, software product lines, and metaprogramming. This dissertation presents an investigation into the process of systematically adding variability to data structures and programs, leading to guidelines for variational data structures and implications for programs that create, manipulate,...
