The possibilities seems to be endless, and might change the software industry at large in many ways. But are these models really ready to be part of a team of software developers, including the capability to write code that can be easily read and understood by human programmers (i.e. writing clean code)
Description of the thesis
This MSc thesis aims at evaluating how AI models are used in the best way to generate source code corresponding to the characteristics considered to be most important to human software engineers to be able to read and understand the source code. The study shall include a study of related previous work, interviews with senior engineers in software development at Saab Aeronautics, and evaluation using one or several AI models relevant for generation of source code.
This Master Thesis is suitable for one or two students, with interest in software development and software testing. You are at the end of your Master of Science in e.g. Computer Science and Engineering, Industrial Engineering and Management, or Information Technology and about to start your Master Thesis work for 30 HP.
