Software evolves to fix bugs and add features. Stopping and restarting programs to apply
changes is inconvenient and often costly. Dynamic software updating (DSU) addresses this …

Upgrading the software of long-lived, highly-available distributed systems is difficult. It is not
possible to upgrade all the nodes in a system at once, since some nodes may be …

This paper presents Rubah, the first dynamic software updating system for Java that: is
portable, implemented via libraries and bytecode rewriting on top of a standard JVM; is …

Software is changed frequently during its life cycle. New requirements come, and bugs must
