Abstract

Architectural erosion is a recurrent problem faced by software architects. Despite this fact, the process is usually tackled in ad hoc way, without adequate tool support at the architecture level. To address this issue, we describe the preliminary design of a recommendation system whose main purpose is to provide refactoring guidelines for developers and maintainers during the task of reversing an architectural erosion process. The paper formally describes first recommendations proposed in our current research and results of their application in a web-based application.

Stop the software architecture erosion: building better software systems
OOPSLA '10: Proceedings of the ACM international conference companion on Object oriented programming systems languages and applications companion

In lots of software projects unfortunately an architectural erosion happens over time. Modules which were independent, become connected, plug-ins finally depend on each other, and in general the architecture gets violated more and more. In this paper we ...
Towards extensive software architecture erosion repairs
ECSA'13: Proceedings of the 7th European conference on Software Architecture

Software architecture erosion can reduce the quality of software systems significantly. It is hence of great importance to repair erosion efficiently, for example, by means of refactoring. However, existing refactoring approaches do not address ...
Stop the software architecture erosion
OOPSLA '10: Proceedings of the ACM international conference companion on Object oriented programming systems languages and applications companion

During the evolution of a software system, it becomes more and more difficult to understand the originally planned software architecture. Often an architectural degeneration happens because of various reasons during the development phases.
