Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Memoization refactoring is a refactoring pattern that caches the result of a given function and returns the same result when the function gets called afterward with the same set of arguments. The purpose of this refactoring is to reduce duplicated calculations and trade the CPU time with the memory usage.
Traditionally it is tricky to apply this refactoring manually, as the return value of the function may depend on internal states that may change between the function calls. This largely prevents the programmers from adopting the Memoization refactoring.
In this research, we will propose an approach to apply the Memoization refactoring on Java member methods, by using detailed side-effects information about the target method that gathered from a purity analysis tool called purano.
We practised the soundness of our approach on open-source Java libraries and observed improvements in performance and preservation of semantics by running a profiler on the bundled test cases on these libraries.
