Researchers have recently achieved significant advances in deep learning techniques,
which in turn has substantially advanced other research disciplines, such as natural …

Modern software engineering establishes software supply chains and relies on tools and
libraries to improve productivity. However, reusing external software in a project presents a …

A critical aspect of software development, build reproducibility, ensures the dependability,
security, and maintainability of software systems. Although several factors, including the …

Incremental and parallel builds performed by build tools such as Make are the heart of
modern C/C++ software projects. Their correct and efficient execution depends on build …

This thesis explores data-driven approaches for automated root cause analysis of CI/CD
build failures, focusing on identifying non-deterministic failures, locating root cause …

Reproducible Builds (RB) guarantee that rebuilding a software package from source leads
to bitwise identical artifacts. RB is a promising approach to increase the integrity of the …
