I am currently starting my PhD in software quality assurance and have been doing a lot of reading round this subject. I am just trying to find out if there is any relevant/current research in the production of a generic quality assurance tool i.e. a tool/methodology that can accept many languages for the following areas:
•	Problems in code/coding errors
•	Compiler bugs
•	Language bugs
•	Users mathematical model
I would greatly appreciate any input and advice in this area, feel free to repost on this topic and/or contact me at: owens.darryl.lee at gmail.com

Thank you in advance
