Abstract--Component-based development focuses on compose and composition: abstract components (as wished) must be searched for and matched to existing component (as found). This se...
Defect density and defect prediction are essential for efficient resource allocation in software evolution. In an empirical study we applied data mining techniques for value seri...
Abstract. During an architectural evolution of a component-based software, certain quality attributes may be weakened. This is due to the lack of an explicit definition of the link...
