Automatic Re-engineering of Software Using Genetic Programming
describes the application of Genetic Programming to a real world
application area - software re-engineering in general and automatic
parallelization specifically. Unlike most uses of Genetic
Programming, this book evolves sequences of provable
transformations rather than actual programs. It demonstrates that
the benefits of this approach are twofold: first, the time required
for evaluating a population is drastically reduced, and second, the
transformations can subsequently be used to prove that the new
program is functionally equivalent to the original. Automatic
Re-engineering of Software Using Genetic Programming shows that
there are applications where it is more practical to use GP to
assist with software engineering rather than to entirely replace
it. It also demonstrates how the author isolated aspects of a
problem that were particularly suited to GP, and used traditional
software engineering techniques in those areas for which they were
adequate. Automatic Re-engineering of Software Using Genetic
Programming is an excellent resource for researchers in this
exciting new field.
