Component recovery supports program understanding, architecture recovery, and re-use. Among the best known techniques for detection of re-usable objects (related global variables ...
Packages are the basic units of release and reuse in software development. The contents and boundaries of packages should therefore be chosen to minimize change propagation and ma...
This paper empirically explores the correlations between a suite of structural stability metrics for object-oriented designs and post-release defect density. The investigated stab...
