Refactoring Methods for Knowledge Bases [PDF]
, 2004 The manual development of large knowledge systems is a difficult and error-prone task. In order to facilitate extensions to an existing knowledge base the structural design of the implemented knowledge needs to be improved from time to time. However, experts are often deterred even from important design improvements since some restructurings are too ...

Implementation of an automatic extract method refactoring [PDF]
, 2019 Software quality is an important aspect to guarantee maintainability and comprehensibility of developed source code. Modern software projects use static code analysis tools to continuously monitor the software quality. Based on findings from these tools, developers refactor their code with the aim to remove detected code smells. Refactorings can use up

Recommending automated extract method refactorings [PDF]
Proceedings of the 22nd International Conference on Program Comprehension, 2014 Extract Method is a key refactoring for improving program comprehension. However, recent empirical research shows that refactoring tools designed to automate Extract Methods are often underused. To tackle this issue, we propose a novel approach to identify and rank Extract Method refactoring opportunities that are directly automated by IDE-based ...

Local Search and the Evolution of World Models
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

Adventure of a Lifetime: Extract Method Refactoring for Rust
Proceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages, 2023 We present a design and implementation of the automated "Extract Method" refactoring for Rust programs. Even though Extract Method is one of the most well-studied and widely used in practice automated refactorings, featured in all major IDEs for all popular programming languages, implementing it soundly for Rust is surprisingly non-trivial due to the ...
