This article presents a survey on automatic software repair. Automatic software repair
consists of automatically finding a solution to software bugs without human intervention. This …

Human developers can produce code with cybersecurity bugs. Can emerging 'smart'code
completion tools help repair those bugs? In this work, we examine the use of large language …

Debugging software failures is still a painful, time consuming, and expensive process. For
instance, recent studies showed that debugging activities often account for about 50% of the …

Software fault localization, the act of identifying the locations of faults in a program, is widely
recognized to be one of the most tedious, time consuming, and expensive-yet equally critical …

Debugging consumes significant time and effort in any major software development project.
Moreover, even after the root cause of a bug is identified, fixing the bug is non-trivial. Given …

The field of automated software repair lacks a set of common benchmark problems.
Although benchmark sets are used widely throughout computer science, existing …

There are more bugs in real-world programs than human programmers can realistically
address. This paper evaluates two research questions:“What fraction of bugs can be …

Satellites are an essential aspect of our modern society and have contributed significantly to
the way we live today, most notable through modern telecommunications, global positioning …

Automated program repair can potentially reduce debugging costs and improve software
quality but recent studies have drawn attention to shortcomings in the quality of …

In program debugging, finding a failing run is only the first step; what about correcting the
fault? Can we automate the second task as well as the first? The AutoFix-E tool …
