Integrating Software Metrics for Fortran Legacy into an IDE

Software Metrics have being used since the 70s, their purpose is to measure different software attributes, such as complexity and maintainability, to name a few. Software Metrics help programmers obtain valuable information about programs. That information is essential when working with legacy systems. Scientists have been producing Fortran programs for the last six decades, and some of those programs became legacy years ago.We have implemented a set of well known software metrics for Fortran into a widely used IDE (Integrated Development Environment) by means of AST (Abstract Syntax Tree). This integration allows developers to obtain software metrics from their source code while they are programming.XI Workshop de Ingeniería de Softwar

Variability Abstractions: Trading Precision for Speed in Family-Based Analyses (Extended Version)

Family-based (lifted) data-flow analysis for Software Product Lines (SPLs) is capable of analyzing all valid products (variants) without generating any of them explicitly. It takes as input only the common code base, which encodes all variants of a SPL, and produces analysis results corresponding to all variants. However, the computational cost of the lifted analysis still depends inherently on the number of variants (which is exponential in the number of features, in the worst case). For a large number of features, the lifted analysis may be too costly or even infeasible. In this paper, we introduce variability abstractions defined as Galois connections and use abstract interpretation as a formal method for the calculational-based derivation of approximate (abstracted) lifted analyses of SPL programs, which are sound by construction. Moreover, given an abstraction we define a syntactic transformation that translates any SPL program into an abstracted version of it, such that the analysis of the abstracted SPL coincides with the corresponding abstracted analysis of the original SPL. We implement the transformation in a tool, reconfigurator that works on Object-Oriented Java program families, and evaluate the practicality of this approach on three Java SPL benchmarks.Comment: 50 pages, 10 figure

A Parallel 8-Bit Computer Interface Circuit And Software For A Digital Nuclear Spectroscopy System

There are 3 errors that are associated with the measurement of nuclear radiations. These are from the noise accompanying an incident radiation pulse, the dead time required for the processing of the incident radiation pulse and the pile-up of pulses. We have designed and implemented a digital nuclear radiation processing system (DNRPS) that significantly solves the 3 problems as well as being less complex and cheap. The interfacing of the digital processing system to a computer has been achieved through a less complex and cheap interface circuit using discrete integrated circuit (IC) chips. The interface circuit accepted parallel 8-bit data which were simultaneously processed. Furthermore, the operation of the digital processing section involved only digital addition and subtraction of the parallel 8-bit data. This approach has removed the need for complex digital operations requiring the use of digital signal processor chips, microprocessors and other complex and expensive devices as in commercial digital pulse processing systems.
