We wish to investigate how structural design principles are used in practice, in order to assess the utility and relevance of such principles to the maintenance of large, complex,...
Component recovery and remodularization is a means to get back control on large and complex legacy systems suffering from ad-hoc changes by recovering logical components and restr...
We examine the problem of how to ensure behavioral consistency of an object-oriented system after its schema has been updated. The problem is viewed from the perspective of both t...
The paper surveys some of the mechanisms that have been demonstrated to be relevant for evolving communication systems in software simulations or robotic experiments. In each case,...
During the life cycle of a software system, the source code is changed many times. We study how developers can be enabled to get insight in these changes, in order to understand t...
