Android app developers extensively employ code reuse, integrating many third-party libraries into their apps. While such integration is practical for developers, it can be challenging for static analyzers to achieve scalability and…

Lack of usability of security Application Programming In- terfaces (APIs) is one of the main reasons for mistakes that programmers make that result in security vulnerabilities in software applications they develop. Especially, APIs that…

APIs are the primary mechanism for developers to gain access to externally defined services and tools. However, previous research has revealed API misuses that violate the contract of APIs to be prevalent. Such misuses can have harmful…

Mobile apps are now ubiquitous. Before developing a new app, the development team usually endeavors painstaking efforts to review many existing apps with similar purposes. The review process is crucial in the sense that it reduces market…

Mobile apps are used in a variety of health settings, from apps that help providers, to apps designed for patients, to health and fitness apps designed for the general public. These apps ask the user for, and then collect and leak a wealth…

Microservices expose their functionality via remote Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), e.g., based on HTTP or asynchronous messaging technology. To solve recurring problems in this design space, Microservice API Patterns (MAPs) have…

Extracting semantic representations from mobile user interfaces (UI) and using the representations for designers' decision-making processes have shown the potential to be effective computational design support tools. Current approaches rely…

With the escalating threat of malware, particularly on mobile devices, the demand for effective analysis methods has never been higher. While existing security solutions, including AI-based approaches, offer promise, their lack of…

Collecting mobile datasets remains challenging for academic researchers due to limited data access and technical barriers. Commercial organizations often possess exclusive access to mobile data, leading to a "data monopoly" that restricts…

Although iOS is the second most popular mobile operating system and is often considered the more secure one, approaches to automatically analyze iOS applications are scarce and generic app analysis frameworks do not exist. This is on the…

Mobile devices have access to personal, potentially sensitive data, and there is a large number of mobile applications and third-party libraries that transmit this information over the network to remote servers (including app developer…

OpenAPI indicates a behavior where producers offer Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to help end-users access their data, resources, and services. Generally, API has many parameters that need to be entered. However, it is…

The Android operating system is frequently updated, with each version bringing a new set of APIs. New versions may involve API deprecation; Android apps using deprecated APIs need to be updated to ensure the apps' compatibility withold and…

Autonomous agents are moving beyond simple retrieval tasks to become economic actors that invoke APIs, sequence workflows, and make real-time decisions. As this shift accelerates, API providers need request-level monetization with…

Developer forums like StackOverflow have become essential resources to modern software development practices. However, many code snippets lack a well-defined method declaration, and thus they are often incomplete for immediate reuse.…

Developers require accurate descriptions of REpresentational State Transfer (REST) Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for a successful interaction between web services. The OpenAPI Specification (OAS) has become the de facto standard…

We describe a comprehensive methodology for developing user-voice personalized automatic speech recognition (ASR) models by effectively training models on mobile phones, allowing user data and models to be stored and used locally. To…

Because Mobile apps are extremely popular and often mission critical nowadays, companies invest a great deal of resources in testing the apps they provide to their customers. Testing is particularly important for Android apps, which must…

Unique challenges arise when testing mobile applications due to their prevailing event-driven nature and complex contextual features (e.g. sensors, notifications). Current automated input generation approaches for Android apps are typically…

Software development is getting changed so rapidly. It will be highly benefited if we can accelerate software development process by guiding developers. Appropriate guidelines and accurate recommendations to developers during development…
