Behavior-based code search
Sheela Surisetty · 2014
The proliferation of end-user programmers' code in open source repositories provides opportunities for others to reuse code to solve programming problems, learn new programming techniques and to get inspiration. Unfortunately, code reuse by end-user programmers is low. In this paper, I propose a novel search mechanism called “Behavior-based code search” (BBCS) that assists end-user programmers discover reusable artifacts, so that they could find, reuse, and benefit from existing end-user code.
