Technical Perspective: BLeak: Semantics-Aware Leak Detection in the Web
What is the right leak oracle that can precisely capture the behavior of leaks in Web applications? "BLeak: Automatically Debugging Memory Leaks in Web Applications," by John Vilk and Emery D. Berger, provides a simple and yet unexpected answer to this question.
BLeak: Automatically Debugging Memory Leaks in Web Applications
This paper introduces BLeak (Browser Leak debugger), the first system for automatically debugging memory leaks in web applications.
First European Quantum Computing Facility Goes Online
Quantum Inspire is smaller than IBM's Quantum Experience, but offers the first online quantum processor that uses electron spins in quantum dots as qubits.
Virtual Reality Meets the Office
"Virtual meeting spaces greatly expand the possibilities for online communication—and, at their best, create an environment that parallels or exceeds real world interaction."
Measuring Up: How to Properly Measure Your Programmers
To measure or to not measure, that is the question. Ask programmers and many will tell you that measurement is a fool’s folly. Measurement undermines the team spirit, or it reduces dynamic solutions into simplified numbers that can never reflect the true complexity of the project. On the other hand, without measurement, project managers will struggle to stay on top of a project.
