Many techniques for automated program repair involve syntactic program transformations. Applying combinations of such transformations on faulty code yields fix candidates whose correctness must be determined. Exploring these combinations leads to an explosion on the number of generated fix candidates that severely limits the applicability of such fault repair techniques. This explosion is most times tamed by not considering fix candidates exhaustively, and by disabling intra-statement modifications. In this article we present a technique for program repair that considers an ample set of intra-statement syntactic operations, and explores fix candidates exhaustively up to a provided bound. The suitability of the technique, implemented in our tool Stryker, is supported by a novel mechanism to detect and prune infeasible fix candidates. This allows Stryker to repair programs with several bugs, whose fixes require multiple modifications. We evaluate our technique on a benchmark of faulty Java container classes, which Stryker is able to repair, pruning significant parts of the space of generated candidates when more than one bug is present in the code.

Online news media provides aggregated news and stories from different sources all over the world and up-to-date news coverage. The main goal of this study is to have a solution that considered as a homogeneous source for the news and to represent the news in a new conceptual framework. Furthermore, the user can easily find different updated news in a fast way through the designed interface. The Mobile App implementation is based on modeling the multi-level conceptual analysis discipline. Discovering main concepts of any domain is captured from the hidden unstructured data that are analyzed by the proposed solution. Concepts are discovered through analyzing data patterns to be structured into a tree-based interface for easy navigation for the end user, through the discovered news concepts. Our final experiment results showing that analyzing the news before displaying to the end-user and restructuring the final output in a conceptual multilevel structure, that producing new display frame for the end user to find the related information to his interest.
