“…Desktop Java MVC applications that implement a Graphical User Interface (GUI) are characterized by using graphical libraries such as Java Swing or AWT. In this kind of applications [83], the users' requests are events of the Java Swing/AWT elements [84]. As a result, the component View receives the user interactions through the graphical elements generating events that are processed by the Controller [85].…”

“…The pattern Strategy is implemented to delegate the presentation behavior to the Controller, whereas the View is only in charge of visual concerns. On the other hand, the pattern Command facilitates handling the users' requests through an abstract class command with a single method "execute" [84]. The component Model also can apply two design patterns: Observer and DAO (Data Access Object).…”

The new era of information and the needs of our society require continuous change in software and technology. Changes are produced very quickly and software systems require evolving at the same velocity, which implies that the decision-making process of software architectures should be (semi-)automated to satisfy changing needs and to avoid wrong decisions. This issue is critical since suboptimal architecture design decisions may lead to high cost and poor software quality. Therefore, systematic and (semi-)automated mechanisms that help software architects during the decision-making process are required. Architectural patterns are one of the most important features of software applications, but the same pattern can be implemented in different ways, leaving to results of different quality. When an application requires to evolve, knowledge extracted from similar applications is useful for driving decisions, since quality pattern implementations can be reproduced in similar applications to improve specific quality attributes. Therefore, clustering methods are especially suitable for classifying similar pattern implementations. In this paper, we apply a novel unsupervised clustering technique, based on the well-known artificial neural network model Self-Organizing Maps, to classify Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern from a quality point of view. Software quality is analyzed by 24 metrics organized into the categories of Count/Size, Maintainability, Duplications, Complexity, and Design Quality. The main goal of this work is twofold: to identify the quality features that establish the similarity of MVC applications without software architect bias, and to classify MVC applications by means of Self-Organizing Maps based on quality metrics. To that end, this work performs an exploratory study by conducting two analyses with a dataset of 87 Java MVC applications characterized by the 24 metrics and two attributes that describe the technology dimension of the application. The stated findings provide a knowledge base that can help in the decision-making process for the architecture of Java MVC applications.

“…List structures are the most widespread, recording artifact states and/or commands in a linear fashion, often chronologically [5,21,28]. This structure enables a variety of single-history operations, from Linear [10] to Selective [23] and Regional Undo [25].…”

Simple history systems such as Undo and Redo permit retrieval of earlier or later interaction states, but advanced systems allow powerful capabilities to reuse or reapply combinations of commands, states, or data across interaction contexts. Whether simple or powerful, designing interaction history mechanisms is challenging. We begin by reviewing existing history systems and models, observing a lack of tools to assist designers and researchers in specifying, contemplating, combining, and communicating the behaviour of history systems. To resolve this problem, we present CAUSALITY, a conceptual model of interaction history that clarifies the possibilities for temporal interactions. The model includes components for the work artifact (such as the text and formatting of a Word document), the system context (such as the settings and parameters of the user interface), the linear timeline (the commands executed in real time), and the branching chronology (a structure of executed commands and their impact on the artifact and/or context, which may be navigable by the user). We then describe and exemplify how this model can be used to encapsulate existing user interfaces and reveal limitations in their behaviour, and we also show in a conceptual evaluation how the model stimulates the design of new and innovative opportunities for interacting in time.
