Technical Briefing on srcML & srcDiff: Infrastructure to Support Exploring, Analyzing, and Differencing of Source CodeResearch Track at Session 4 Room - RGD 005
Chair(s): Michael J. Decker Bowling Green State University, Jonathan I. Maletic Kent State University

This technology briefing is intended for those interested in constructing custom software analysis and manipulation tools to support research. The briefing is also aimed at researchers interested in leveraging syntactic differencing in their investigations. srcML (srcML.org) is an infrastructure consisting of an XML representation for C/C++/C#/Java source code along with efficient parsing technology to convert source code to-and-from the srcML format. srcDiff (srcDiff.org) is an infrastructure supporting syntactic source-code differencing and change analysis. srcDiff leverages srcML along with an efficient differencing algorithm to produce deltas that accurately model developer edits. In this tech briefing, we give an overview of srcML and srcDiff along with a tutorial of how to use them to support research efforts. The briefing is also a forum to seek feedback and input from the community on what new enhancements and features will better support software engineering research.

Goal and Scope

The goal of the New Ideas and Emerging Results (NIER) track is to provide researchers and practitioners with a forum for presenting innovative, promising ideas in the early stages of research. The NIER track provides constructive feedback by fostering discussion around challenging, cutting-edge and innovative early-stage research. As such, these ideas do not require a strong empirical evaluation, but preliminary results providing initial support for the feasibility of proposed ideas are welcomed. The topics of interest for this track are the same as for the main research track, that is, all the topics in the research and practice of software maintenance and evolution. Papers submitted to ICSME NIER 2023 must not have been published elsewhere and must not be under review or submitted for review elsewhere while under consideration for ICSME NIER 2023.
