A New Representation And Crossover Operator For Search-based Optimization Of Software Modularization
Mark Harman, Robert M. Hierons, Mark Proctor · 2002
Abstract This paper reports experiments with automated software modularization and remodularization, using search-based algorithms, the fitness functions of which are derived from measures of module granularity, cohesion and coupling. The paper introdeuces a new representation and crossover operator for this problem and reports initial results based on simple component topologies.
