We present a case study that aims at quantitative assessment of the impact of requirements changes, and quantitative estimation of costs of the development activities that must be ...
Understanding function signature change properties and evolution patterns is important for researchers concerned with alleviating signature change impacts, understanding software ...
Impact analysis, determining when a change in one part of a program affects other parts of the program, is timeconsuming and problematic. Impact analysis is rarely used to predict...
Software testing can be re-formulated as a search problem, hence search algorithms (e.g., Genetic Algorithms) can be used to tackle it. Most of the research so far has been of emp...
Architectural quality constitutes a critical factor for contemporary software systems, especially because of their size and the needs for frequent, quick changes. For success-crit...
