Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

MARK HARMAN and ROBERT HIERONS review three semantic paradigms for slicing — static, dynamic and conditioned; and two syntactic paradigms — syntax-preserving and amorphous. Slicing has been applied to many software development problems including testing, reuse, maintenance and evolution. This paper describes the main forms of program slice and some of the applications to which slicing has been put.
