This page needs a complete rewrite
The current contents of this page describe the state of program synthesis prior to 2000 (the only citation is from a 2004 review paper looking back at the eras from 1960-2000).
I am postdoc at UC Berkeley with primary research focus on Program Synthesis. My PhD was on Program Synthesis as well. I am starting on a project to revamp this page to make it current with the developments in the field, and I will ensure that the updated page contains contributions from faculty and researchers at all prominent establishments (including Berkeley, MIT, Microsoft, etc.) working in the area. The end result will bring the page up to par with, for example, the Software testing page.
If any of the current contributors have significant objections to a rewrite, please respond.
