“…According to [12], software rejuvenation process is not a complex task but a very effective technique in increasing the availability of a software by rebooting and refreshing the software. The rejuvenation technique is used to revive ageing software after the ageing status is detected [16] [24]. Cotroneo et al [17] suggests that software maintenance activities are considered as the anti-ageing process where these activities are used to delay the ageing of software.…”

Software ageing is a phenomenon that normally occurs in a long running software. Progressive degradation of software performance is a symptom that shows software is getting aged and old. Researchers believe that the ageing phenomenon can be delayed by applying anti-ageing techniques towards the software or also known as software rejuvenation. Software ageing factors are classified into two categories: internal and external factors. This study focuses on external factors of software ageing, and are categorized into three main factors: environment, human and functional. These three factors were derived from empirical study that been conducted involving fifty software practitioners in Malaysia. The anti-ageing model (SEANA model) is proposed to support in preventing the software from prematurely aged, thus prolong its usage and sustainable in their environment. SEANA model is implemented in collaboration with a government agency in Malaysia to verify and validate the model in real environment. The prototype of SEANA model was developed and applied in the real case study. Furthermore, the anti-ageing guideline and actions are suggested for ageing factors to delay the ageing phenomenon in application software and further support the greenness and sustainability of software products.
