<h2><title>Introduction</title>
	<p>The main aim of the Software Engineering Department is to give
	students the necessary basic knowledge of software engineering expected
	nowadays at the international level. The department would also like
	graduate students to acquire the ability to work independently and
	increase their knowledge.</p>

	<p>The staff at the department have been doing successful research in
	software engineering for many years now. Besides the number of scientific
	papers that have been published, the "European Conference on Software
	Maintenance and Reengineering"
	(<a href='http://www.inf.u-szeged.hu/CSMR2002'>CSMR2002</a>)
	held in	Budapest in 2002 was organized by people from this department.
	The most significant software maintenance conference, the
	"International Conference on Software Maintenance"
	(<a href='http://www.inf.u-szeged.hu/icsm2005'>ICSM2005</a>)
	was organized by this department in 2005.</p>

	<h3><title>Research topics</title>

		<b>I. Static and dynamic analysis of software systems</b>

		<p>1. The staff at the department is doing research in the field of <emph>program slicing</emph>.
		In the case of imperative programming languages various algorithms have been developed
		for increasing the efficiency of static and dynamic slicing methods, while in the case
		of logic programming languages new methods have been published.</p>

		<p>2. Successful research is going on in the field of reverse engineering. A schema and
		software system are constantly being developed at the department which facilitate the
		analysis of real-size object oriented (C++) systems. They are widely used in many
		universities across the world.</p>

		<b>II. Optimizing the GCC compiler</b>

		<p>Various compiler optimization methods are being studied which primarily deal with the
		size of the generated code. A benchmark has been developed at the department which regularly
		measures the size of the code generated by GCC. This
		benchmark can be reached from the GGC benchmarks homepage as
		well. Another research area is binary code compression and reduction.</p>

		<b>III. Machine learning methods and their applications</b>

		<p>Significant research is done in the field of symbolic machine learning. Various decision
		tree-based and rule-based methods have been developed for code compression and Hungarian
		natural language processing applications.</p>

		<b>IV. Parallel and Distributed Systems</b>

		<p>Research initially focused on the investigation of load balancing in
		transputer networks, special attention was paid to the application areas
		of parallel logic program execution and distributed database query
		processing. Experience with these systems led to the definiton of a
		parallel programming model which attemps to give a unified solution to
		load balancing and process synchronisation problems occuring during
		parallel program desing and implementation. Work on a development
		environment for the model is under way.</p>
