Information System Engineering has become under increasing pressure to come up with software solutions that endow systems with the agility that is required to evolve in a continual...
The problem of managing the evolution of complex and large software systems is well known. Evolution implies reuse and modification of existing software artifacts, and this means t...
Design for change is a well-known adagium in software engineering. We separate concerns, employ well-designed interfaces, and the like to ease evolution of the systems we build. W...
