ase-related-work

Use when writing the related-work and positioning of an ASE (IEEE/ACM Automated Software Engineering) paper, covering the automated-SE literature lanes, delta-first positioning against prior tools/techniques, fair head-to-head framing, and double-anonymous self-citation.

# ASE Related Work

Position the paper against **prior automation**, not against a topic. At ASE the question a reviewer
holds is "what does this tool/technique do that the existing automated approaches do not?" — so
related work is a **delta argument**, and the strongest deltas are stated against named,
runnable prior tools you can (and often must) compare against empirically.

## Cover the ASE literature lanes

An automated-SE paper usually sits at the intersection of several lanes; name your position in each
that applies:

- **Program analysis** — static/dynamic analysis, symbolic/concolic execution, abstract
  interpretation, invariant inference.
