Program Generation

Technique

Program generation is a technique for automatically producing program code, used across domains including parallel scientific computing and CPU fuzzing. It spans computer-assisted parallel program generation systems, language-model-based code synthesis, and intricate program generation strategies for hardware security testing (as exemplified by Cascade).

Program Generation

Program generation refers to techniques that automatically produce executable program code rather than requiring humans to write it by hand. It is applied across a wide range of domains, including parallel scientific computing, software engineering automation, and hardware/ CPU fuzzing.

[1] Computer-assisted parallel program generation systems such as P-NCAS have been developed as Problem Solving Environments (PSEs) to support parallel computing for large-scale scientific, data-analysis, and visualization problems, with origins in 1970s PSE research. Computer Assisted Parallel Program Generation
[2] Pre-trained language models (e.g., CodeT5, CodeGPT) have been applied to automated program generation tasks including code generation, repair, and translation, but suffer from over-optimistic evaluation due to severe data duplication and limited robustness to input changes. On the Reliability and Explainability of Language Models for Program Generation
[3] Cascade applies intricate program generation to CPU fuzzing, with reproducibility artifacts including a Docker image, an optional Questasim-based coverage comparison versus TheHuzz, and experiments showing that longer generated programs tend to be more efficient at finding bugs. comsec-group/cascade-artifacts
