Genetic improvement of software : from program landscapes to the automatic improvement of a live system

Haraldsson, Saemundur Oskar January 2017 (has links)
In today’s technology driven society, software is becoming increasingly important in more areas of our lives. The domain of software extends beyond the obvious domain of computers, tablets, and mobile phones. Smart devices and the internet-of-things have inspired the integra- tion of digital and computational technology into objects that some of us would never have guessed could be possible or even necessary. Fridges and freezers connected to social media sites, a toaster activated with a mobile phone, physical buttons for shopping, and verbally asking smart speakers to order a meal to be delivered. This is the world we live in and it is an exciting time for software engineers and computer scientists. The sheer volume of code that is currently in use has long since outgrown beyond the point of any hope for proper manual maintenance. The rate of which mobile application stores such as Google’s and Apple’s have expanded is astounding. The research presented here aims to shed a light on an emerging field of research, called Genetic Improvement ( GI ) of software. It is a methodology to change program code to improve existing software. This thesis details a framework for GI that is then applied to explore fitness landscape of bug fixing Python software, reduce execution time in a C ++ program, and integrated into a live system. We show that software is generally not fragile and although fitness landscapes for GI are flat they are not impossible to search in. This conclusion applies equally to bug fixing in small programs as well as execution time improvements. The framework’s application is shown to be transportable between programming languages with minimal effort. Additionally, it can be easily integrated into a system that runs a live web service.

Geração automática de backend de compiladores baseada em ADLs / ADL based automatic compiler backend generation

A separação entre os algoritmos empregados no backend e a descrição formal da máquina, que requer conhecimento sobre a arquitetura alvo, é uma característica bastante desejada, uma vez que propicia a criação de novos backends sem a necessidade de conhecer o projeto do compilador, mas apenas do processador. Por esse motivo, um esforço natural para manter o desenvolvimento simples e intuitivo é a concentração do conhecimento sobre a máquina alvo em uma forma concisa de descrição, a partir da qual seja possível especializar algoritmos genéricos de compilação para este alvo específico. Uma linguagem de descrição de arquiteturas (ADL) permite a especificação das características arquiteturais de processadores, incluindo o seu conjunto de instruções (ISA). Neste trabalho, um estudo de mecanismos para gerar backend de compiladores através de descrições arquiteturais de processadores é apresentado, com ênfase no estudo de caso da ADL ArchC com o compilador LLVM. Um protótipo de um gerador de backends para LLVM a partir de uma descrição em ArchC foi desenvolvido, e backends para as arquiteturas ARM, MIPS, SPARC e PowerPC foram gerados com sucesso. Para alcançar este objetivo, foi usado um algoritmo de busca para resolver o problema da programação automática e inferir como implementar fragmentos pré-selecionados da linguagem intermediária LLVM utilizando instruções de uma arquitetura alvo arbitrária. Quatro técnicas para aumentar a velocidade deste algoritmo são apresentadas, de forma a não somente viabilizar uma solução para a geração automática de backends, mas também concluir o processo em menos de 20 segundos para três das quatro arquiteturas testadas. Programas do benchmark Mibench foram compilados com os compiladores gerados, executados com simuladores ArchC e os resultados comparados com aqueles gerados a partir dos mesmos programas compilados com os compiladores gcc e LLVM original, validando os novos backends. A qualidade do código gerado pode ser comparada com a de compiladores consagrados, caso seja utilizado um otimizador peephole para realizar substituições simples de algumas sequências ineficientes / Abstract: Researchers pursue the automation of compiler backend generation, the component responsible for final translation from intermediate language to machine code, since the begining of compilers theory creation. The separation between the algorithms used in the backend and formal machine description, which encompasses knowledge about the target architecture, is an important feature, since it facilitates the creation of new backends without the need for deep understanding of the compiler project. For this reason, an effort to maintain the development natural, simple and intuitive must concentrate the knowledge of the target machine in a concise description in a way it is possible to specialize generic algorithms to this target. An architecture description language (ADL) allows the specification of architectural features of processors, comprising the instruction set architecture available. This work presents a study of mechanisms for generating compiler backend through architectural descriptions of processors, with emphasis on a case study of the ArchC ADL with the LLVM compiler. We developed an automatic backend generator prototype for LLVM backends based on ArchC and successfully generated backends for the architectures ARM, MIPS, PowerPC and SPARC. To achieve this, we used a search algorithm to solve the problem of automatic programming and to infer how to implement pre-selected fragments of LLVM intermediate language using instructions of an arbitrary target architecture. We present four techniques to increase the speed of this algorithm which not only enables a solution for the automatic generation of backends, but also completes the process in less than 20 seconds for three of four architectures tested. Test compilation of Mibench benchmark programs attested the proper functioning of the backend and revealed that the quality of the generated code can compare with that of existing compilers, if a peephole optimizer were used to perform some simple substitutions of inefficient sequences / Mestrado / Ciência da Computação / Mestre em Ciência da Computação
