Static Members and Cycles in Java Software
The static modifier is a convenient way to make class members "global" in object-oriented software systems. Given this, we wondered if static members significantly contr...

An Empirical Study of the Effects of Gestalt Principles on Diagram Understandability
Comprehension errors in software design must be detected at their origin to avoid propagation into later portions of the software lifecycle and also the final system. This researc...

How Software Designs Decay: A Pilot Study of Pattern Evolution
A common belief is that software designs decay as systems evolve. This research examines the extent to which software designs actually decay by studying the aging of design patter...
