The paper presents a semi-automated technique for feature location in source code. The technique is based on combining information from two different sources: an execution trace, ...
The goal of a clone detection tool is to identify sections of code that are duplicated in a program. The result of the detection is presented in some manner for the user to view, ...
The number of bugs (or fixes) is a common factor used to measure the quality of software and assist bug related analysis. For example, if software files have many bugs, they may b...
Surprising as it may seem, many of the early adopters of the object-oriented paradigm already face a number of problems typically encountered in large-scale legacy systems. Softwa...
Feature location aims at locating pieces of code that implement a given set of features (requirements). It is a necessary first step in every program comprehension and maintenanc...
