Abstract:Interest in anti-unification, the dual problem of unification, is on the rise due to applications within the field of software analysis and related areas. For example, anti-unification-based techniques have found uses within clone detection and automatic program repair methods. While syntactic forms of anti-unification are enough for many applications, some aspects of software analysis methods are more appropriately modeled by reasoning modulo an equational theory. Thus, extending existing anti-unification met… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
