We present an iterative, reading-based methodology for analyzing defects in source code when change history is available. Our bottom-up approach can be applied to build knowledge ...
Modification analysis is part of most maintenance processes and includes among other activities, early prediction of potential change impacts, feasibility studies, cost estimation...
A Dependence Anti Pattern is a dependence structure that may indicate potential problems for on–going software maintenance and evolution. Dependence anti patterns are not struct...

Concept location is one of the fundamental activities during software maintenance which locates the parts of the source code where a specific concept is implemented. The methods f...
DSP processors usually provide dedicated address generation units (AGUs) to assist address computation. By carefully allocating variables in the memory, DSP compilers take advanta...
