Wala - Static Analysis Capabilities for Java Bytecode and Related Languages       


Programming Languages Accomplishment | 2006 - 2012

IBM researcher: Stephen Fink, Julian Dolby, Frank Tip

Where the work was done: IBM T.J. Watson Research Center

What we accomplished: From the IBM website: "The T. J. Watson Libraries for Analysis (WALA) provide static analysis capabilities for Java bytecode and related languages." These capabilities can be used for program optimization, detection of security problems and other areas.

  • More from IBM website: "The initial WALA infrastructure was independently developed as part of the DOMO research project at the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center. In 2006, IBM donated the software to the community."
