Inference Techniques

Combining type inference techniques for semi-automatic UML generation from Pharo code


This paper explores how to reconstruct UML diagrams from dynamically typed languages such as Smalltalk, which do not use explicit type information. This lack of information makes traditional methods for extracting associations difficult. It addresses the need for automated techniques, particularly in legacy software systems, to facilitate their transformation into modern technologies, focusing on Smalltalk as a case study due to its extensive industrial legacy and modern adaptations like Pharo. 

We propose a way to create UML diagrams from Smalltalk code, focusing on using type inference to determine UML associations. For optimal outcomes for large-scale software systems, we recommend combining different type inference methods in an automatic or semi-automatic way.

We addressed the challenge of generating UML models from Pharo, a dynamically typed Smalltalk-based language, with a focus on type inference. Our approach combines both static and dynamic type inference techniques, integrating tools such as RoelTyper, RBRefactoryTyper, J2Inferer, and our custom real-time inferer. This comprehensive method improves type detection accuracy, which is essential for constructing UML associations and refining the representation of object-oriented.

 How Network Polarization Shapes Our Politics! Network polarization amplifies political divisions by clustering like-minded individuals into echo chambers, where opposing views are rarely encountered. This reinforces biases, reduces dialogue, and deepens ideological rifts. Social media algorithms further intensify this divide, shaping public opinion and influencing political behavior in increasingly polarized and fragmented societies. Network polarization refers to the phenomenon where social networks—both offline and online—become ideologically homogenous, clustering individuals with similar political beliefs together. This segregation leads to the formation of echo chambers , where people are primarily exposed to information that reinforces their existing views and are shielded from opposing perspectives. In political contexts, such polarization has profound consequences: Reinforcement of Biases : When individuals only interact with like-minded peers, their existing beliefs bec...

Quantum Network Nodes

An operating system for executing applications on quantum network nodes The goal of future quantum networks is to enable new internet applications that are impossible to achieve using only classical communication . Up to now, demonstrations of quantum network applications  and functionalities   on quantum processors have been performed in ad hoc software that was specific to the experimental setup, programmed to perform one single task (the application experiment) directly into low-level control devices using expertise in experimental physics.  Here we report on the design and implementation of an architecture capable of executing quantum network applications on quantum processors in platform-independent high-level software. We demonstrate the capability of the architecture to execute applications in high-level software by implementing it as a quantum network operating system-QNodeOS-and executing test programs, including a delegated computation from a client to a server ...

Global Lighthouse Network

Smart, sustainable manufacturing: 3 lessons from the Global Lighthouse Network Launched in 2018, when more than 70% of factories struggled to scale digital transformation beyond isolated pilots, the Global Lighthouse Network set out to identify the world’s most advanced production sites and create a shared learning journey to up-level the global manufacturing community. In the past seven years, the network has grown from 16 to 201 industrial sites in more than 30 countries and 35 sectors, including the latest cohort of 13 new sites. This growing community of organizations is setting new standards for operational excellence, leveraging advanced technologies to drive growth, productivity, resilience and environmental sustainability. But what exactly is a Global Lighthouse and what has the network achieved? What is the Global Lighthouse Network? The Global Lighthouse Network is a community of operational facilities and value chains that harness digital technologies at scale to ac...
