DySy: dynamic symbolic execution for invariant inference
Dynamically discovering likely program invariants from concrete test executions has emerged as a highly promising software engineering technique. Dynamic invariant inference has t...

Using groupings of static analysis alerts to identify files likely to contain field failures
In this paper, we propose a technique for leveraging historical field failure records in conjunction with automated static analysis alerts to determine which alerts or sets of ale...

PSE: explaining program failures via postmortem static analysis
In this paper, we describe PSE (Postmortem Symbolic Evaluation), a static analysis algorithm that can be used by programmers to diagnose software failures. The algorithm requires ...

ARCHER: using symbolic, path-sensitive analysis to detect memory access errors
Memory corruption errors lead to non-deterministic, elusive crashes. This paper describes ARCHER (ARray CHeckER) a static, effective memory access checker. ARCHER uses path-sensit...
