Abstract
Today’s society heavily relies on dependable operation of software, systems, and networks. The research activities of the Reliable and Secure Cyberspace (RelSeC) Lab at West Virginia University seek to develop experimental, analytical, and AI techniques for development, assurance, and quantitative assessment of reliable and secure software and systems. This talk will address several recent RelSeC research efforts, such as characterization of software vulnerabilities, automatic identification of security-related bug reports, software defect prediction, malware detection using multimodal machine learning, and empirical analysis of bugs in software developed using model-based software engineering and in software with autonomous functionality.
