Abstract:Refactoring is the process of improving the design of a program
without changing its semantics. Wrangler is a refactor tool for Erlang,
which supports plenty of refactorings. After giving a short introduction
to the Wrangler project, Melinda will explain her goal of finding new
useful refactorings and implement them. These include a refactoring to
group function arguments into a tuple, and a refactoring to create a
record from a tuple. This latter refactoring requires investigation of
common usage patters for "record-like" usage of patterns in Erlang
programs. George will then describe his project of integrating Wrangler
in the Eclipse platform, as a part of the Erlide project. He will
describe the integration process, how communication works in the system,
as well as providing a short demo of the system as well.
Biography:Gyorgy and Melinda started their studies of computer science
at the Eotves Lorand University of Hungary in 2004. They received their
bachelor's degree in the February of 2008, and have worked with the
RefactorErl project at Eotves
Lorand University. They came to the University of Kent at Canterbury as
an Erasmus exchange student in February, and have been working with the
Wrangler tool since then.
