Introducing Learning into Automatic Program Comprehension
نویسندگان
چکیده
Automatic program comprehension applications, which try to extract programming knowledge from program code, share many features of human program comprehension models. However, the human trait of learning seems to be missing among the shared features. We present an approach to integrate machine learning techniques into automatic program comprehension, and present an example implementation in the context of automatic analysis of roles of variables.

This study investigated the effects of captioned texts on second/foreign (L2) listening comprehension and vocabulary gains using a computer multimedia program. Additionally, it explored the caption ordering effect (i.e. captions displayed during the first or second listening), and the interaction of captioning order with the L2 proficiency level of language learners in listening comprehension a...
متن کاملC-TRAIL: A Program Comprehension Approach for Leveraging Learning Models in Automated Code Trail Generation
With society's increasing utilization of (embedded) software, the amount of program source code is proliferating while the skilled human resources to maintain and evolve this code remain limited. Therefore, software tools are needed that can support and enhance program code comprehension. This paper focuses on program concept location and cognitive learning models, and contributes an automatic ...
متن کاملProgram Comprehension Techniques to Improve Automatic Parallelization
Automated program recognition can play a crucial role in overcoming limitations of existing tools for the automatic parallelization of programs for distributed-memory architectu-res. In this paper, we describe the integration of parallelization techniques based on program comprehension into the Vienna Fortran Compilation System (VFCS). After a pattern occurring in a program has been recognized ...
متن کاملProgram comprehension engines for automatic parallelization: a comparative study
We compare two systems for program comprehension that are targeted towards support of automatic parallelization: the PAP recognizer currently included into the Vi-enna Fortran Compilation System, and the PARAMAT pattern recognizer developed at Saarbr ucken University. We illuminate the main diierences, the advantages and disadvantages of each approach, and show how both approaches may be integr...
