Renaming Global Variables in C Mechanically Proved Correct [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016 Most integrated development environments are shipped with refactoring tools. However, their refactoring operations are often known to be unreliable. As a consequence, developers have to test their code after applying an automatic refactoring.
