1999
Journal of Software Maintenance: Research and Practice
Many existing software systems can bene t from restructuring to reduce maintenance cost and improve reusability. Yet, intuition-based, ad hoc restructuring can bedi cult and expensive, and can even make software structure worse. We introduce a quantitative framework for software restructuring. In the framework, restructuring decisions are guided by visualized design information and objective criteria. The design information can be extracted directly from code to restructure existing or legacy
