Analyzing the Evolution of Large-Scale Software
نویسندگان
چکیده
This special issue reports on approaches that address the issue of analyzing and visualizing the evolution of large-scale software. These approaches were discussed during the IEEE Workshop on Evolution of Large-Scale Industrial Software Evolution (ELISA), which was co-located with the International Conference on Software Maintenance in Amsterdam in September 2003. After a thorough review process, two articles have been selected for this special issue. The techniques proposed and illustrated in these articles allow us to gain a deeper insight into the nature of the evolution of large-scale software.

An approach to software architecture analysis for evolution and reusability
Software evolution and reuse is more likely to receive higher payoff if high-level artifacts—such as architectures and designs—can be reused and can guide low-level component reuse. In practice, however, high-level artifacts are often not appropriately captured. This paper presents an approach to capturing and assessing software architectures for evolution and reuse. The approach consists of a ...
متن کاملTowards Measuring the Project Management Process During Large Scale Software System Implementation Phase
Project management is an important factor to accomplish the decision to implement large-scale software systems (LSS) in a successful manner. The effective project management comes into play to plan, coordinate and control such a complex project. Project management factor has been argued as one of the important Critical Success Factor (CSF), which need to be measured and monitored carefully duri...
متن کاملA partition-based algorithm for clustering large-scale software systems
Clustering techniques are used to extract the structure of software for understanding, maintaining, and refactoring. In the literature, most of the proposed approaches for software clustering are divided into hierarchical algorithms and search-based techniques. In the former, clustering is a process of merging (splitting) similar (non-similar) clusters. These techniques suffered from the drawba...
متن کاملEvaluating the Evolution of Small Scale Open Source Software Systems
For real-world software to remain satisfactory to its stakeholders requires its continual enhancement and adaptation. Acceptance of this phenomenon, termed software evolution, as intrinsic to real world software has led to an increasing interest in disciplined and systematic planning, management and improvement of the evolution process. Almost all of the previous work on software evolution has ...
متن کاملSpeeding up the Stress Analysis of Hollow Circular FGM Cylinders by Parallel Finite Element Method
In this article, a parallel computer program is implemented, based on Finite Element Method, to speed up the analysis of hollow circular cylinders, made from Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs). FGMs are inhomogeneous materials, which their composition gradually varies over volume. In parallel processing, an algorithm is first divided to independent tasks, which may use individual or shared da...
