Context Software maintainability is one of the fundamental quality attributes of software
engineering. The accurate prediction of software maintainability is a significant challenge for …

In the recent decades, researchers have introduced an abundance of feature selection
methods many of which are studied and analyzed over the high dimensional datasets …

Software has to be updated frequently to match the customer needs. If software
maintainability is not given priority, it affects the software development life cycle and …

During maintenance, software systems undergo continuous correction and enhancement
activities due to emerging faults, changing environments, and evolving requirements …

In a broad spectrum, software metrics play a vital role in attribute assessment, which
successively moves software projects. The metrics measure gives many crucial facets of the …

Maintaining software once implemented on the end-user side is laborious and, over its
lifetime, is most often considerably more expensive than the initial software development …

Featured Application The paper shows that the additional layers of historical changes of
software metrics from previous software releases contributes to a better prediction of future …

Background: Software product maintainability prediction (SPMP) is an important task to
control software maintenance activity, and many SPMP techniques for improving software …

Background: Feature selection techniques are important factors for improving machine
learning models because they increase prediction accuracy and decrease the time to create …

The challenge of effectively developing and sustaining high-performance professional
development practices in software engineering education is one that must be addressed …
