Programming with Big Code

Objective

Software synthesis aims to automate the creation of software by generating parts of software from a higher-level description. Until recently it was believed to be impossible to practically synthesize software beyond very small fragments. However, synthesis based on learning from existing large code-bases (“Big Code”) is making synthesis into a practical reality . The purpose of this PoC is to develop a platform that would lead to commercialization of our technology to improve programming productivity and code quality. We target two closely related applications: (1) Providing automatic assistance in programming tasks by learning from existing code, and (2) Providing on-line assessment of code quality as it is being developed using learned models. These applications have the potential to dramatically reduce time-to-market of new software, and improve its quality and security.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

ERC-POC - Proof of Concept Grant

Host institution

TECHNION - ISRAEL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
