Series on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering - Vol. 14
ACQUISITION OF SOFTWARE ENGINEERING KNOWLEDGE
SWEEP: An Automatic Programming System Based on Genetic Programming and Cultural Algorithms
by George S Cowan & Robert G Reynolds (Wayne State University, USA)
This is the first book that attempts to provide a framework in which to embed an automatic programming system based on evolutionary learning (genetic programming) into a traditional software engineering environment. As such, it looks at how traditional software engineering knowledge can be integrated with an evolutionary programming process in a symbiotic way.
Contents:
- SWEEP: A System for the Software Engineering of Evolving
Programs
- The Genetic Programming Element Agents
- The Metrics Apprentice: Using Cultural Algorithms to Formulate Quality Metrics for Software Systems
- An Example Problem for Automatic Programming: Solving the Noisy Sine Problem with Discipulus
- Data Collection and Analysis
- Analysis: The Relationship of Software Metrics to Bloat
- Defining a New Software Metric to Estimate Generalization Using the Metrics Apprentice
Readership: Computer scientists.
