In June 1998, the Texas Board of Professional Engineers adopted software engineering as a distinct discipline under which engineering licenses can be issued. The motivation for this decision was the expectation that licensing and the associated regulation of the software engineering profession would lead to substantive improvements in the education of computer software professionals and […]
An algorithm for reduction of operator strength
A simple algorithm which uses an indexed temporary table to perform reduction of operator strength in strongly connected regions is presented. Several extensions, including linear function test replacement, are discussed. These algorithms should fit well into an integrated package of local optimization algorithms.
