We develop an evolutionary model and theory of software technical debt accumulation to
facilitate a rigorous and balanced analysis of its benefits and costs in the context of a large …

Technical debt is the metaphor for shortcuts in software development that bring short-term
benefits, but long-term consequences hinder the process of maintaining and developing …

We describe the design of a flood warning system which uses a set of sensor nodes to
collect readings of water level and a grid-based flood predictor model developed by …

Abstract The Technical Debt (TD) metaphor has been used as a way to manage and
communicate long-term consequences that some technical decisions may cause. Although …

There is a growing interest in applying the technical debt metaphor to investigate issues
related to the tradeoff of the likely long-term costs associated with software design shortcuts …

The Technical Debt (TD) metaphor has been used in the software community as a way to
manage and communicate the long-term consequences that some technical decisions may …

Software development teams need to prioritize the technical debt items payment to improve
the software quality and ensure the new feature and code maintenance development pace …

Context: It is crucial to understand how reproducible the measurement results in the
scientific publications are, as reproducibility is one of the cornerstones of engineering …
