This collaborative research project grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Computer and Network Systems under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070), provides $229,687 in funding to University of California, Los Angeles to develop automated program analysis techniques for shell scripts. The project, active from March 15, 2026 through February 28, 2029, delivers ahead-of-time verification and bug detection methodologies that leverage programming language theory, type systems, and formal program analysis. The research team will create tools and techniques to identify correctness issues in shell programs before execution, with particular emphasis on analyzing shell program interactions with file systems and operating environments. Beyond bug prevention, the project's deliverables include diagnostic frameworks and developer guidance mechanisms to help identify root causes and implement effective fixes for detected vulnerabilities. These research outputs address a critical gap in software quality assurance, as shell programming remains one of the top ten most widely used programming languages despite its complexity and susceptibility to catastrophic bugs that can result in data loss and system failures. The project involves no planned subawards and is being conducted at UCLA's Los Angeles, CA location.Federal Grant Award Summary
