A Survey of Techniques for Automatic Code Generation
PhD Qualifying Examination Title: "A Survey of Techniques for Automatic Code Generation" by Mr. Xiaodong GU Abstract: Automatic code generation is a long-cherished dream in the area of software engineering. Manual software development is labor-intensive and error prone. The automatic composition of (partial) software is highly desirable, but remains a very daunting task. Recent advances in software engineering research and practice have shed light on the possibilities of automatic software composition. This survey presents a systematic literature review of code generation techniques. Sixty-three articles have been reviewed and classified within the taxonomy in order to organize and structure existing work in the field of code generation. The survey also discusses open issues and future directions in the field of code generation.
