Newer technologies - programming languages, environments, libraries - change very rapidly. However, various internal and external constraints often prevent projects from quickly adopting to these changes. Customers may require specific…
Efficient parallelization of algorithms on general-purpose GPUs is essential in many areas today. However, it is a non-trivial task for software engineers to utilize GPUs to improve the performance of high-level programs in general.…
Each accelerator control system has a variety of measurement devices. One of the most common types of instrument interfaces used for their control is a serial (RS-232) bus. It is inexpensive and adequate for relatively simple measurement…
R is a robust open-source programming language mainly used for statistical computing . Many areas of statistical research are experiencing rapid growth in the size of data sets. Methodological advances drive increased use of simulations. A…
The C language is getting more and more popular as a design and verification language (DVL). SystemC, ParC [1] and Cx [2] are based on C. C-models of the design and verification environment can also be generated from new DVLs (e.g. Chisel…
Converting a large C++ code base (800k lines of code) into Java alone is challenging. Changing the architecture from a monolith into an application adhering to the Java application server standard and to run it on WildFly is a different…
Testing is one of the most indispensable tasks in software engineering. The role of testing in software development has grown significantly because testing is able to reveal defects in the code in an early stage of development. Many unit…
It is becoming increasingly clear that, if a useful device for quantum computation will ever be built, it will be embodied by a classical computing machine with control over a truly quantum subsystem, this apparatus performing a mixture of…
In computer science, a preprocessor (or macro processor) is a tool that programatically alters its input, typically on the basis of inline annotations, to produce data that serves as input for another program. Preprocessors are used in…
Quantum computing vendors are beginning to open up application programming interfaces for direct pulse-level quantum control. With this, programmers can begin to describe quantum kernels of execution via sequences of arbitrary pulse shapes.…
We propose a conceptual integration of deductive program verification into existing user interfaces for software debugging. This integration is well-represented in the "Debug Adapter Protocol", a widely-used and generic technology to…
Among the programming languages for Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), Structured Text (ST) is widely adopted for industrial automation due to its expressiveness and flexibility. However, major vendors implement ST with proprietary…
Generation of pseudo-code descriptions of legacy source code for software maintenance is a manually intensive task. Recent encoder-decoder language models have shown promise for automating pseudo-code generation for high resource…
The reuse of code fragments by copying and pasting is widely practiced in software development and results in code clones. Cloning is considered an anti-pattern as it negatively affects program correctness and increases maintenance efforts.…
GPUs and other accelerators are popular devices for accelerating compute-intensive, parallelizable applications. However, programming these devices is a difficult task. Writing efficient device code is challenging, and is typically done in…
In the control system of the JAERI-KEK joint project (High Intensity Proton Accelerator Facility), it is planned to employ network-based controllers such as PLC's and measurement stations instead of using other field control networks, since…
The GCC free compiler is a very large software, compiling source in several languages for many targets on various systems. It can be extended by plugins, which may take advantage of its power to provide extra specific functionality…
Development of scientific and engineering software is usually different and could be more challenging than the development of conventional enterprise software. The authors were involved in a technology-transfer project between academia and…
Ladder Logics is a programming language standardized in IEC 61131-3 and widely used for programming industrial Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC). A PLC program consists of inputs (whose values are given at runtime by factory sensors),…
From the implementation of the Grafcet programming language we obtain in this document the different ways of applying this method, the advantages it obtains with respect to efficiency, cost, quality and operational and time optimization.…
