In cooperation with our research partners in academia, we offered a bachelor thesis in the field of program analysis at Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf. The recently finished thesis of a Bachelor student who was supervised by Axivion investigated static analysis of Python programs by creating a program dependency graph. Features like “late bound everything”, “monkey patching”, missing…

[by Dr. Sebastian Krings, Professional Services, R&D, Axivion GmbH] Aside from safety properties, can static analysis tools be used to detect security issues? Yes, as we will show by discussing a programming error in uftpd, an ftp server implemented in C. In particular, we will show how the error influences both safety as well as security…
The implementation of an automatic coding guidelines check produces code; in the case of the Axivion Suite mostly Python code that makes use of Axivion Suite’s API, to flag certain places in code as an “issue” and to report it accordingly. As you should always test your code – you also have to test the…
Question: When introducing customized coding guidelines, shoud you rather use established, publicly available rule sets (e.g., Misra C/C++, AutoSAR C++, CERT, …) than invent “your own” rules? Answer: The standard rule sets as such are well written and are free from flaws in phrasing. Therefore, they are an excellent starting point for creating your own…
[by Dr. Daniel Simon, Head of Professional Services, Axivion GmbH] There are many definitions of the term quality. On one hand, we have the common sense definitions of “high quality products”, for example, an expensive wristwatch, a fast and impressive sports car, a giant meal (“all you can eat”). The downside to this view…
Is software development a boring, purely facts and figures based, rigid and sometimes painful undertaking? Where is the fun in it? Where does creativity fit in? How can the “software heroes” feed in great new ideas? [by Dr. Daniel Simon, Head of Professional Services, Axivion GmbH] In general, creative people follow – maybe unconsciously…
Do you still dig through mountains of source code when you want to understand software? What if you could walk through it like a city instead? Maybe you meet one of your colleagues there. He’s actually sitting in an office 1000 km away from you, and he can tell you a little bit about the…

Take out your cardboard or VR glasses and get an insight into an example of how your software code could be overflown and tested in the future. Axivion GmbH and University Bremen proudly present a 3D 360° video showing the Linux subsystem Network in six different codecity variants. The buildings are files whose width, depth, height, and…
Macros and Messages In static analysis of C/C++ programs, it’s quite certain to come across both: Warnings found by the static analysis and the use of macros in the analysed source code. Things start to get interesting when both come together: Who caused the warning, the macro alone or its use in a certain context?…
