Revealing Domain-Spatiality Patterns for Configuration Tuning: Domain Knowledge Meets Fitness Landscapes
Configuration tuning for better performance is crucial in quality assurance. Yet, there has long been a mystery on tuners' effectiveness, due to the black-box nature of configurable systems. Prior efforts predominantly adopt static domain analysis (e.g., static taint analysis), which often lacks generalizability, or dynamic data analysis (e.g., benchmarking performance analysis), limiting explainability. In this work, we embrace Fitness Landscape Analysis (FLA) as a bridge between domain knowledge and difficulty of the tuning. We propose Domland, a two-pronged methodology that synergizes the spatial information obtained from FLA and domain-driven analysis to systematically capture the hid...
