Code-Smells refer to design situations that may adversely affect the maintenance of
software. They make a system difficult to change, which may in turn introduce bugs. Code …

Code-smells are identified, in general, by using a set of detection rules. These rules are
manually defined to identify the key symptoms that characterize a code-smell using …

Code smells represent design situations that can affect the maintenance and evolution of
software. They make the system difficult to evolve. Code smells are detected, in general …

Code smells refer to commonly occurring patterns in source code that indicate poor
programming practices or code decay. Detecting code smells helps developers find design …

Accepted: 12/May/2019, Published: 31/May/2019 Abstract—Code smells identified by
Fowler [1] is as symptoms of possible code or design problems. Code smells have adverse …

Background: Code smells indicate suboptimal design or implementation choices in the
source code that often lead it to be more change-and fault-prone. Researchers defined …

Software bad-smells, also called design anomalies, refer to design situations that may
adversely affect the maintenance of software. Bad-smells are unlikely to cause failures …

Code smells are poor implementation choices applied during software evolution that can
affect source code maintainability. While several heuristic-based approaches have been …

In this paper, we introduced a novel technique to generate more user-oriented detection
rules by taking into account their feedback. Our techniques initially generate a set of …

Code smells refer to any symptom in the source code of a program that possibly indicates a
deeper problem, hindering software maintenance and evolution. Detection of code smells is …
