As software systems become more complex the overall system structure { or software architecture { becomes a central design problem. An important step towards an engineering discip...
The recovery of software architecture is a first important step towards re-engineering a software system. Architecture recovery usually involves clustering. The problem with curre...
The goal of our research is to develop industry-proof software architecture and design metrics. We identify a number of problems that arise in computing software architecture and ...

For several decades there has been a debate in the computing sciences about the relative roles of design and empirical research, and about the contribution of design and research ...
Software constantly undergoes changes throughout its life cycle, and thereby it evolves. As changes are introduced into a code base, we need to make sure that the effect of the ch...
