TLDR
The Cornell Program Synthesizer demands a structural perspective at all stages of program development and its separate features are unified by a common foundation: a grammar for the programming language.Abstract:
Programs are not text; they are hierarchical compositions of computational structures and should be edited, executed, and debugged in an environment that consistently acknowledges and reinforces this viewpoint. The Cornell Program Synthesizer demands a structural perspective at all stages of program development. Its separate features are unified by a common foundation: a grammar for the programming language. Its full-screen derivation-tree editor and syntax-directed diagnostic interpreter combine to make the Synthesizer a powerful and responsive interactive programming tool.read more

A knowledge based program editor
TL;DR: The Programmer's Apprentice is designed to be midway between an improved programming methodology and an automatic programming system, and the intention is that the programmer will do the hard parts of design and implementation while the PA will assist him wherever possible.

TL;DR: The programming system generator developed at the Technical University of Darmstadt as discussed by the authors generates sophisticated interactive programming environments from formal language definitions, from a formal, enthymematic language definition.
On the engineering of crucial software
TL;DR: The various aspects of the conventional software development cycle are examined, and automatic programming is a radical alternative to the conventional cycle and is discussed.

TL;DR: The purpose of this paper is to introduce a single geometric structure, called the Voronoi diagram, which can be constructed rapidly and contains all of the relevant proximity information in only linear space, and is used to obtain O(N log N) algorithms for most of the problems considered.

Geometric intersection problems

TL;DR: An O(N log N) algorithm is given to determine whether any two intersect and use it to detect whether two simple plane polygons intersect and to show that the Simplex method is not optimal.

An Optimal Worst Case Algorithm for Reporting Intersections of Rectangles
TL;DR: This paper investigates the problem of reporting all intersecting pairs in a set of n rectilinearly oriented rectangles in the plane and describes an algorithm that solves this problem in worst case time proportional to n lg n + k, where k is the number of interesecting pairs found.
