Background Spectrum-based Fault localization have proven to be useful in the process of software testing and debugging. However, how to improve the effectiveness of software fault localization has always been a research hot spot in the field of software engineering. Dynamic slicing can extract program dependencies…

We propose an innovative delta-differencing algorithm that combines software-updating methods with LZ77 data compression. This software-updating method relates to server-side software that creates binary delta files and to client-side software that performs software-update installations. The proposed algorithm creates…

'Biswanath Samanta'] Performing predictive maintenance (PdM) is challenging for many reasons. Dealing with large datasets which may not contain run-to-failure data (R2F) complicates PdM even more. When no R2F data are available, identifying condition indicators (CIs), estimating the health index (HI), and thereafter…

'Jiayi Zhang' 'Ting Hu' 'Eric HY Lau' 'Yingtao Zhang' 'Meng Zhang' 'Benjamin J Cowling' 'Yan Li' 'Peng Wu'] Background The Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 had become predominant globally by November 2021. Aim We evaluated transmission dynamics and epidemiological characteristics of the Delta variant in an outbreak in…

Slicing is a fault localization technique that has been proposed to support debugging and program comprehension. Yet, its empirical effectiveness during code inspection by humans has received limited attention. The goal of our study is two-fold. First, we aim to define what it means for a code reviewer to identify the…

Error messages provided by the programming environments are often cryptic and confusing to learners. This study explored the effectiveness of enhanced programming error messages (EPEMs) in a Python-based introductory programming course. Participants were two groups of middle school students. The control group only…

Many software reliability growth models (SRGMs) have been proposed in the literature to evaluate the remaining faults and software reliability. The probability of getting failure-free software within a specified period and environment is known as software reliability and is recognized as one of the essential aspects.…

Background Products containing delta-8-THC became widely available in most of the USA following the 2018 Farm Bill and by late 2020 were core products of hemp processing companies, especially where delta-9-THC use remained illegal or required medical authorization. Research on experiences with delta-8-THC is scarce…
