# Program Splicing — COMP 600 Spring 2018 (PDF Export)
|
||
|
||
Yanxin Lu, Swarat Chaudhuri, Christopher Jermaine, David Melski. 31 slides.
|
||
|
||
PDF export of the Keynote presentation splicing_comp600_2018.key. Title: "Program Splicing: Data-driven Program Synthesis".
|
||
|
||
This is a revised version of the earlier splicing_comp600_slides_2018.pdf. Key differences:
|
||
- Title slide has subtitle "Data-driven Program Synthesis" (vs just "Presented by Yanxin Lu")
|
||
- Adds "Efficient relevant code retrieval" and "KNN search" to PDB slide
|
||
- Adds "Programming time" to user study setup
|
||
- User study result slides titled differently: "Deceptively simple", "No standard solutions", "Good documentations and tests were hard to write"
|
||
- Conclusion adds "Efficient algorithm", "Fast code reuse", "Easy to test", "Future work: synthesis algorithm improvement"
|
||
|
||
## Slide 2: Title
|
||
Program Splicing: Data-driven Program Synthesis
|
||
|
||
## Slides 3–7: Motivation and Approach
|
||
- Copying and pasting is time consuming and introduces bugs
|
||
- Program synthesis: automatically generate programs from specifications
|
||
- Problem: can we use program synthesis to improve copying and pasting?
|
||
- Related work: Sketching (PLDI 2005), Code Transplantation (ISSTA 2015)
|
||
- Program Splicing: automate process, large corpus (3.5M programs), ensure correctness
|
||
|
||
## Slide 8: Demo
|
||
- How does a programmer use program splicing?
|
||
|
||
## Slides 9–12: Architecture
|
||
- User → draft program → Synthesis ↔ PDB → completed program
|
||
- PDB: efficient relevant code retrieval, 3.5M Java programs, NL features, similarity metrics, KNN search, fast top-k query
|
||
|
||
## Slides 13–18: Synthesis Algorithm
|
||
- Find relevant programs from PDB
|
||
- Fill holes via enumerative search
|
||
- Variable renaming for undefined variables
|
||
- Testing to filter incorrect programs
|
||
|
||
## Slides 19–20: Benchmark
|
||
Same benchmark table as the earlier version. Efficient synthesis algorithm highlighted.
|
||
|
||
## Slide 21: No need to write many tests
|
||
|
||
## Slides 22–26: User study
|
||
- 18 participants, 4 problems, programming time measured
|
||
- Sieve: deceptively simple
|
||
- Files/CSV: no standard solutions — splicing most helpful
|
||
- HTML: good documentation and tests were hard to write
|
||
|
||
## Slide 27: Conclusion
|
||
- Program Splicing: large code corpus, enumerative search, efficient algorithm
|
||
- Fast code reuse: no standard solutions, easy to test
|
||
- Future work: synthesis algorithm improvement
|
||
|
||
## Slides 29–31: Appendix (Heuristics)
|
||
- Type-based pruning: ignore incompatible types
|
||
- Context-based pruning: ignore expressions with no common parents
|
||
- Huge search space reduction
