Speculative Analysis: Exploring Future States of Software
نویسندگان
چکیده
Most software tools and environments help developers analyze the present and past development states of their software systems. Few approaches have investigated the potential consequences of future actions the developers may perform. The commoditization of hardware, multi-core architectures, and cloud computing provide new potential for delivering apparently-instantaneous feedback to developers, informing them of the effects of changes that they may be considering to the software. For example, modern IDEs often provide “quick fix” suggestions for resolving compilation errors. Developers must scan this list and select the option they think will resolve the problem. Instead, we propose that the IDE should speculatively perform each of the suggestions in the background and provide information that helps developers select the best option for the given context. We believe the feedback enabled by speculative operations can improve developer productivity and software quality.

متن کاملExploring Thread-Level Speculation in Software: The Effects of Memory Access Tracking Granularity
Speculative execution is often the only way to overcome dataflow-imposed limitations and exploit parallelism when dependences can be discovered only at run-time. It also facilitates automatic parallelization of programs that exhibit complicated memory access patterns, which make complete compile-time dependence analysis either impossible or extremely complicated. A number of approaches for coar...

The purpose of this study is to investigate and identify the periods of formation and bursting of speculative bubbles in Iran's capital market by creating a state space model and two-mode switching regime (mode 1 is bubble growth and burst stage and mode 2 is the time of bubble loss) during the period from April 2011 to March 2018. The Oxmetrics 7 software is used to investigate the existence o...
متن کاملRuLAM Project: Speculative Parallelization for Java using Software Transactional Memory∗
The era of multicore processors, capable of running multiple tasks concurrently, has arrived. Sadly, most existing software and even new applications being developed are not ready to take advantage of these new multiprocessing capabilities, and, thus, more processing cores do not translate into better performance when executing these applications. To tackle this problem, we envision the creatio...
