Feature-oriented software development is a promising paradigm to implement variable
software. One advantage is that crosscutting concerns can be modularized, which in turn …

Mobile agents have come forward as a technique for tackling the complexity of open
distributed applications. However, the pervasive nature of code mobility implies that it cannot …

Software Product Lines engineering is a technique that explores systematic reuse of
software artifacts in large scale to implement applications that share a common domain and …

Because of the diverse nature of software systems, it is unlikely that systems will be
developed using a purely service or component programming paradigms. Therefore, the …

Stability assessment provides software managers with early insight into trends in software
evolution, and thus assists them in managing and controlling long-lived software systems …

One of the most difficult tasks in software development is that the programmer must
implement a feature going through a laborious and error prone process of modifying the …

The inadequate modularization of driving software concerns degrades design modularity.
Software metrics are traditionally key mechanisms for detecting modularityrelated design …

Aspect-oriented software engineering provides new ways to produce and deliver products
and ultimately leads to reliable software. Reliability is an important issue contributing to the …

Software systems are always changing to address new stakeholders' concerns. Design
modularity improves the stability of software by decoupling design concerns that are likely to …

Sažetak Aspect-oriented programming has been introduced in order to increase the
modularity of object-oriented programs and is claimed to improve software quality. Although …
