Whats New: Today, Intel unveiled a new machine programming (MP) system in conjunction with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech).

Key Points: 
  • Whats New: Today, Intel unveiled a new machine programming (MP) system in conjunction with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech).
  • The system, machine inferred code similarity (MISIM), is an automated engine designed to learn what a piece of software intends to do by studying the structure of the code and analyzing syntactic differences of other code with similar behavior.
  • This complexity, paired with a shortage of programmers who can code at an expert level across multiple architectures, spotlights a need for new development approaches.
  • Moreover, MISIM can do all of this without using a compiler, which translates human-readable source code into computer-executable machine code.
