    • Method Detail

      • getAccessSequence

        Word<I> getAccessSequence​(I procedure)
        Returns an access sequence for the given procedure.
        Parameters:
        procedure - the call symbol that identifies the procedure
        Returns:
        the access sequence for the given procedure
      • getTerminatingSequence

        Word<I> getTerminatingSequence​(I procedure)
        Returns a terminating sequence for the given procedure.
        Parameters:
        procedure - the call symbol that identifies the procedure
        Returns:
        the terminating sequence for the given procedure
      • getReturnSequence

        Word<I> getReturnSequence​(I procedure)
        Returns a return sequence for the given procedure. Note that the sequence must match the access sequence in order to provide an admissible context for query expansion.
        Parameters:
        procedure - the call symbol that identifies the procedure
        Returns:
        the return sequence for the given procedure
      • scanPositiveCounterexample

        Set<I> scanPositiveCounterexample​(Word<I> counterexample)
        Extracts from a positive counterexample (potentially new) access sequences, terminating sequences, and return sequences.
        Parameters:
        counterexample - the counterexample
        Returns:
        a Set of procedures (identified by their respective call symbols) for which new access, terminating, and return sequences could be extracted and for which previously none of the sequences were available.
      • scanProcedures

        void scanProcedures​(Map<I,​? extends DFA<?,​I>> procedures,
                            Map<I,​? extends AccessSequenceTransformer<I>> providers,
                            Collection<I> inputs)
        Scans a set of (hypothesis) procedures in order to potentially extract new access sequences, terminating sequences, and return sequences.
        Parameters:
        procedures - a Map from call symbols to the respective procedural (hypothesis) models
        providers - a Map from call symbols to AccessSequenceTransformers
        inputs - a Collection of input symbols which should be used for finding new access sequences, terminating sequences, and return sequences
