Kouhei SAKURAI

I am an assistant professor at Faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Institute of Science and Engineering, Kanazawa University, Japan. My research interests are programming languages and software engineering.

Research Projects

• Testing, and Debugging

  • Traceglasses : A trace-based debugger.
  • Traversal Assert : An assertion mechanism for traversing an objects network of object-oriented programs.
  • COINS c-interpreter : A pure Java implementation of C interpreter.

• Aspect-Oriented Programming

  • Test-based Pointcuts : A novel pointcut mechanism for AspectJ-like aspect-oriented programming languages, that can specify join points through unit test case associated with the target program. Test-based pointcuts improve robustness and precision of pointcut languages.
  • Association Aspects : An extension to aspects in AspectJ for representing crosscutting concerns among objects
