Approximating Amorphous Slices
by Kyle Sluder and Dave Binkley


The similarities between amorphous slicing and partial evaluation are explored, leading to the proposal for a framework for approximating an amorphous slicer that operates on C programs. The capabilities results of this framework are compared to those of traditional static slicing mechanisms. Additionally, adaptation of the framework to conditional amorphous slicing is explored, yielding comparisons to dynamic slicing.
