The University of Washington was awarded a $500,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Computer and Network Systems under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering federal grant program (CFDA 47.070). The three-year award will support the University's efforts to evolve the Defects4J benchmark and infrastructure to enable sustained innovation and reproducibility in software engineering research. Specifically, the University will work to enhance Defects4J, an established framework for evaluating bug finding tools, by expanding its test suites, fixing known issues, and developing tools and services to facilitate broader adoption and long-term maintenance of the benchmark. This will help advance defect detection techniques and allow results to be more reliably reproduced, validated and compared over time. By further developing this important cyberinfrastructure resource, the funding aims to accelerate progress and collaboration in the field of software engineering.
