The user can also select options to create software trees and a variety of cross-reference tables. The use of these objects can increase programmer productivity by providing system-level details in a manner that can be easily understood. They also aid in the software maintenance process by providing the design baseline for future software modifications and added documentation of the software set. It is pointed out that integrating a system-level reverse engineering utility tool into a CASE environment is just one step toward improving programmer productivity and increasing success in the software maintenance process.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":107276,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

This generality needs a mechanism for deriving the original requirements of the underlying data structures contained within the source code itself. A reference model is proposed from which it is possible to derive the necessary techniques required to implement such a mechanism. The proposed model, the source code reengineering reference model (SCORE/RM), consists of eight layers (encapsulation, transformation, normalization, interpretation, abstraction, causation, regeneration, and certification) which provide a step-by-step approach to rationalizing the software, comprehending its functions and requirements, and rebuilding it according to well-established practices of software engineering. Such a framework can then be used to provide improved maintenance capability, language translation, retrospective standardization of the code and documentation, code migration onto parallel architectures, and formal specification.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":107276,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

The authors present a technique that selects from a test suite a representative set of test cases that provides the same measure of coverage as the test suite. This selection is performed by the identification of the redundant and obsolete test cases in the test suite. The representative set can be used to reduce the size of the test suite by substituting for the test suite. The representative set can also be used to determine those test cases that should be rerun to test the program after it has been changed. The technique is independent of the testing methodology and only requires an association between each testing requirement and the test cases that satisfy the requirement. The technique is illustrated by means of the data flow testing methodology. Experimental studies are being performed that demonstrate the effectiveness of the technique.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":107276,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

To aid in the investigation, an exhaustive electronic keyword search was made of abstracts found in Computer Database Abstracts and the INSPEC Computer and Control; Abstracts. The full abstracts for the articles found in the searches were scrutinized to determine whether they were appropriate. On the basis of the abstracts, full articles were examined to provide summary and trend statistics. The dimensions used to categorize and interpret the current state of empirical software maintenance research were derived from a survey conducted at the 1988 IEEE Conference on Software Maintenance. It was found that the volume of empirical software maintenance research apparently has increased over the decade. Second, the use of COBOL in empirical studies appears to be increasing. The use of only students in empirical studies has declined slightly through the decade, and the majority of software maintenance research continues to be accomplished by academic researchers.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":107276,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

The DBSD paradigm views the design process as a series of interrelated decisions which involve the identification and articulation of problems, alternatives, solutions, and justifications. Decisions made by programmers and analysts are recorded in a project database. Unresolved problems are also recorded, and resources for their resolution are allocated by management according to the overall development strategy. This decision structure is linked to the products affected by the relevant decisions and provides a process-oriented view of the resulting system. Software maintenance uses this decision view of the system to understand the rationale behind the decisions affecting the part of the system to be modified. The relationships between decisions help assess the impact of changing one or more decisions. The authors describe D-HyperCase, a prototype decision-based hypermedia system and give results of applying the DBSD approach during its development.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":107276,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.
