Program comprehension may bene t from graph and transformation techniques because they enable custom queries, and complex query results (i.e., graphs). However, there is one main issue to address: scalability. Software developers need tools that help them understand large code bases. For instance, the Java Development Tools from Eclipse consists of around six thousand Java classes, which translate into roughly ve million nodes in the corresponding graph. We propose two independent tasks in order to evaluate the adequacy of transformation tools to program comprehension and similarly demanding tasks. The rst one exercises the scalability of tools by requiring them to lter large input graphs. The associated test-case contains a set of graphs of increasing size that should help comparing tools. The second task exercises the genericity of the tools. A tool that solves both tasks demonstrates that it scales, and that it does not trade scalability for genericity.","PeriodicalId":386020,"journal":{"name":"Encyclopedia of Software Engineering","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123660635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Software evolution is an inevitable activity, as useful and successful software stimulates users to request new and improved features. However, evolving a software system is typically difficult and costly. In this chapter, we provide an historical overview of the field and survey four important research ares: program comprehension, reverse engineering, reengineering, and software repository mining. We report on key approaches, results, and indicate a number of challenges open to on-going and future research in software evolution.","PeriodicalId":386020,"journal":{"name":"Encyclopedia of Software Engineering","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116054258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
