Evolving an existing software system is fundamentally different from developing one from scratch. Consequently, tools to support evolution must go beyond traditional development t...
Abstract— In many software design and evaluation techniques, either the software evolution problem is not systematically elaborated, or only the impact of evolution is considered...
Abstract. Software evolution has largely been focused on low-level implementation artefacts through refactoring techniques rather than the architectural level. However code-centric...
Abstract. We consider switched systems on Banach and Hilbert spaces governed by strongly continuous one-parameter semigroups of linear evolution operators. We provide necessary and...
Real world software systems undergo, during their lifetime, to repeated maintenance activities. Due to the market pressure and to the need for having back the system operational i...
