—In this paper, we propose a communication model of evolution and investigate its information-theoretic bounds. The process of evolution is modeled as the retransmission of infor...
In this paper, we propose a fine-grained coupling metrics suite for aspect-oriented (AO) systems, to measure software changes during system evolution. We also present a correlati...
The benefits that a software organization obtains from estimates of product quality are dependent upon how early in the product cycle that these estimates are available. Early est...
The new generation of open networked IT systems poses particular challenges to software engineering due to their evolving nature and their high quality requirements. In particular...
