As size and complexity of software systems increase, preserving the design and specification of their implementation structure gains importance in order to maintain the evolvabil...
We propose a novel methodology for analysing change propagation in software using the domain-level behavioural model of a system. We hypothesize that change propagation analysis i...

As a software system evolves, its architecture will drift. System changes are often done without considering their effects on the system structure. These changes often introduce s...

Programmers often create similar code snippets or reuse existing code snippets by copying and pasting. Code clones —syntactically and semantically similar code snippets—can ca...
Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) fosters the coding of tangled concerns in separated units that are then woven together in the executable system. Unfortunately, the oblivious nat...
