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,...

Creator:: Le, Duc
Abstract:: Maintaining variation in software is a difficult problem that poses serious challenges for the understanding and editing of software artifacts. Although the C preprocessor (CPP) is often the default tool used to introduce variability to software, because of its simplicity and flexibility, it is infamous for its obtrusive syntax and...

Creator:: Vellanki, Aishwarya
Abstract:: The online computer science classroom is growing, but there is little research on how to teach inclusive design online. As a result, online CS students are graduating without learning how to avoid bias in their software designs. Through the lens of the Inclusive Design Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK), this thesis...

Creator:: Abbott, Keeley
Abstract:: Mixed-initiative programming entails collaboration between a computer system, and a human to achieve some desired goal or set of goals. Often these goals change or are amended in real time during the course of program execution. As such, the plans these programs are based on must adapt and evolve to...

Creator:: Chabra, Aarti
Abstract:: In a software development cycle, programs go through many iterations. Identifying and understanding program changes is a tedious but necessary task for programmers, especially when software is developed in a collaborative environment. Existing tools used by the programmers either lack in finding the structural differences, or report the differences as...

Creator:: Aburas, Ali
Abstract:: Software testing is a very important task during software development and it can be used to improve the quality and reliability of the software system. One potential way to reduce the cost and increase the efficiency of software testing is to generate test data automatically. Search-based approaches successfully generate unit...
