It is quite challenging to track the after‐effects of changes with increased dependencies
among classes while making a change in software applications. Software change impact …

Framework-based multi-lingual software is increasingly prevalent, but it also brings negative
effects and extra burden on software maintenance and evolution, because of the introduced …

Abstract Changes are made frequently in software to incorporate new requirements. The
changes made to one class are not limited to that particular class, but they also affect other …

Changeability is an important aspect of software maintenance and helps in better planning
of development and testing resources. Early detection of change-prone entities is beneficial …

Tracking the after-effect of changes is very difficult due to complex and huge structure of
software applications now days. Researchers have found that revision history is very useful …

When changes are made to software applications often, defects can occur in software
applications, and eventually leads to expensive operational faults. Comprehensive testing is …

Software development and maintenance accompany several challenges related to change
management. Identifying dependencies of change-prone classes helps to manage the after …

The failure in propagating software changes properly during the maintenance process is
one of the main causes of defects and poor software performance. It also increases the time …
