  • Publication number: 20220206930
    Abstract: One embodiment provides a system for automatic program repair (APR). The system identifies a first set of components under repair in a software system and determines, while executing an original test, second and third sets of components that are executed before and after, respectively, the first set of components. The system generates a first block of mock code that runs faster and simulates runtime behaviors of the second set of components, identifies a code region within the third set of components that affects a test result of the software system, and generates a second block of mock code that runs faster and affects the test result similarly. The system generates a fast-result test by replacing the second set of components with the first block of mock code and replacing the third set of components with the second block of mock code and performs APR by executing the fast-result test.

  • Publication number: 20220204554
    Abstract: The invention pertains to the method of N-terminus Glycine tagged metal-free protein purification by selective labeling of N-terminus Gly containing proteins, its capture, and release through modified resin under mild operating conditions. The selective labeling of N-terminus Glycine enables the formation of an aminoalcohol. The invention is for selective tagging of N-Gly in a protein. The invention is for separation of immobilised N-terminus glycine proteins from the functionalised resin under mild aqueous physiological conditions by C—C bond dissociation with additive, in which the additive enables the resonance-assisted electron density (RED) polarization to facilitate C—C bond dissociation. The invention provides the N-Gly specific installation of a probe in a protein within cell lysate. The invention covers the special aldehydes, including its on-resin derivative, for the given purpose.
