Barring unforeseen advances in propulsion and communications technologies, the mission times for such voyages will be measured in decades or centuries, and the spacecraft will be required to achieve a m~ch higher degree of autonomous operation than fuas been the case for previous and current planetary missions. These characteristics pose significant maintenance challenges that must be overcoflle if such systems are to be successfully fielded.1 Recent work at the Jet Propuls~on Laboratory (JPL) has identified technologies that will be required to develop these types of spacecraft [I].

Two problems for evolutionary testing are the large size of the search space and structural impediments in the implementation of the program which inhibit the formulation of a suitable fitness function to guide the search. In this paper we claim that slicing can be used to narrow the search space and transformation can be applied to the problem of structural impediments. The paper presents examples of how these two techniques have been successfully employed to make evolutionary testing both more efficient and more effective.","PeriodicalId":385190,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software Maintenance, 2002.

It is shown how this architectural style is realized through identification, separation and externalization of a formal specification of the manners of the application domain and its components. The approach is based on the notion of enterprise component (EC). An enterprise component is defined as an architectural pattern that is leveraged to provide a uniform mechanism for management of component boundaries between otherwise entropic systems consisting of multiple legacy systems coexisting with newer, object and component-based application programs. EC's are identified through a domain decomposition that includes mapping business architecture onto component-based software architecture. Extensions to current methodologies and architectural practices to support and realize such a style are presented.","PeriodicalId":385190,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software Maintenance, 2002.

However the literature lacks an empirical evaluation of the benefits a programmer gains by using assertions in his software development. This paper reports two controlled experiments that close this gap. Both experiments compare \"programming by contract\" to the traditional programming style without assertions. The evaluation of the first experiment suggests that assertions decrease the programming effort for the extension of existing software, measured as time needed to finish the task, while the programming effort slightly increases during the development of new code. The second experiment shows that the programming effort tended to be larger with assertions than without. In addition, it shows that the reliability of the written programs slightly increases with the usage of assertions compared to the programs written without assertions.","PeriodicalId":385190,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software Maintenance, 2002.

The Congruence Evaluation System was a proof of concept (CES POC) system which was part of a constantly evolving environment, and this change in the environment dictated the fitness of the CES POC system in the environment. The system served excellently for basic research purposes, but failed seriously in the long-term goal of evolvability with the set of coexisting research tools. We assessed the state of the system requirements, as well as that of the environment, at different times during system development and redevelopment. From this assessment we gained a detailed insight into how environmental evolution affects system survivability in terms of requirements changes. In this case study, we also found some empirical support for Lehman's (Lehman and Ramil, 2001) seventh law of software evolution, which has until now, neither been empirically supported nor refitted.","PeriodicalId":385190,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software Maintenance, 2002.

Interoperability dependency relationships now point to more relevant impacts of software change and necessarily drive the analysis. Software changes to software systems that incorporate middleware components like Web services expose these systems and the organizations they serve to unforeseen ripple effects that frequently result in failures. Current software change impact analysis models have not adequately addressed this trend. Moreover, as software systems grow in size and complexity, the dependency webs of information extend beyond most software engineers ability to comprehend them. This paper examines preliminary research for extending current software change impact analysis to incorporate interoperability dependency relationships for addressing distributed applications and explores three dimensional (3D) visualization techniques for more effective navigation of software changes.","PeriodicalId":385190,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software Maintenance, 2002.
