&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;In [[computer science]], '''program analysis''' is the process of automatically analyzing the behavior of [[Computer program|computer programs]] regarding a property such as correctness, robustness, safety and liveness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Description ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Program analysis focuses on two major areas: [[program optimization]] and [[program correctness]]. The first focuses on improving the program’s performance while reducing the resource usage while the latter focuses on ensuring that the program does what it is supposed to do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Program analysis can be performed without executing the program ([[static program analysis]]), during [[run time]] ([[dynamic program analysis]]), or in a combination of both.&lt;br /&gt;
