Abstract:In software engineering, a software development process, also known as software development life cycle (SDLC), involves several distinct activities for developing, testing, maintaining, and evolving a software system. Within the stages of SDLC, software maintenance occupies most of the total cost of the software life. However, after extended maintenance activities, software quality always degrades due to increasing size and complexity. To solve this problem, software modularisation using clustering is an intui… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
