Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Programming language
  • Operating system
  • Software

Programming language, Data flow diagram, Data mining, Algorithm and Software are his primary areas of study. His Programming language research includes elements of Theoretical computer science and Transformer. His Data flow diagram research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Software tool, Global variable, Computation and Overhead.

His Data mining research includes elements of Test suite, Test suite prioritization and Reliability engineering. The concepts of his Test suite study are interwoven with issues in Event, Unit testing, Regression testing and Code coverage. The Software study combines topics in areas such as Variety, Software engineering and Embedded system.

His most cited work include:

  • A methodology for controlling the size of a test suite (600 citations)
  • Bubble-Up: increasing utilization in modern warehouse scale computers via sensible co-locations (438 citations)
  • TimeAware test suite prioritization (299 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Programming language, Parallel computing, Code, Distributed computing and Software. As part of one scientific family, Mary Lou Soffa deals mainly with the area of Parallel computing, narrowing it down to issues related to the Compiler, and often Code generation, Data-flow analysis and Data flow diagram. His work on Concurrency as part of general Distributed computing research is frequently linked to Quality of service, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His work on Code coverage is typically connected to Graphical user interface testing as part of general Software study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Code coverage study incorporates themes from Test Management Approach and Component. In his research on the topic of Test case, Test suite is strongly related with Reliability engineering.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Programming language (22.08%)
  • Parallel computing (19.05%)
  • Code (16.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2021)?

  • Distributed computing (16.02%)
  • Software (15.15%)
  • Multi-core processor (4.76%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Mary Lou Soffa mainly focuses on Distributed computing, Software, Multi-core processor, Computer architecture and Code. His Distributed computing research incorporates elements of Parallel computing, Benchmark, Cache and Adaptation. His Software study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Scalability, Machine learning, Real-time computing and Software engineering.

His Multi-core processor study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Spec#, Profiling and Runtime system. His Computer architecture research incorporates themes from Exploit, Programming language, Debugging and Computer-aided software engineering. His work carried out in the field of Code brings together such families of science as Compiler and High memory.

Between 2007 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Bubble-Up: increasing utilization in modern warehouse scale computers via sensible co-locations (438 citations)
  • The impact of memory subsystem resource sharing on datacenter applications (206 citations)
  • Black-Box Generation of Adversarial Text Sequences to Evade Deep Learning Classifiers (163 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Operating system
  • Programming language
  • Software

Mary Lou Soffa focuses on Distributed computing, Multi-core processor, Quality of service, Real-time computing and Benchmark. His Distributed computing research integrates issues from Job scheduler, Scalability and Profiling. His study in Multi-core processor is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Spec#, Scheduling and Code.

His work deals with themes such as Compiler and Host, which intersect with Code. His Real-time computing research includes themes of Software and Cloud computing. Mary Lou Soffa has included themes like Test suite, Instrumentation, Tree and Database in his Software study.
