“Static Universe Type Inference” by Nathalie Kellenberger. Oct. 2005. Master's thesis.

Abstract

The Universe type system gives programmers the possibility to specify ownership information in Java source code and enforces a stricter runtime behavior that eases reasoning about software. These additional type modifiers have to be provided by the programmer. Adding these modifiers to an already existing large program can be a big effort. We developed an architecture that infers the Universe type annotations by static code analysis. As a proof of concept the architecture was implemented and successfully applied to real Java programs. This report covers every aspect of the information gathering and processing needed to perform this task.
