A Benchmark Platform for Design Pattern Detection
Francesca Arcelli Fontana, Marco Zanoni, Andrea Caracciolo · 2010
Design patterns detection is a useful activity in reverse engineering to gain knowledge on the design issues of an existing system, on its software architecture and design quality, improving in this way the comprehension of the system and hence its maintainability and evolution. Several tools have been developed, but they usually provide different results analyzing the same systems. Some works have been proposed in the literature to compare these results, but a standard widely accepted benchmark is not yet available. In this work we propose our benchmark platform for design patterns detection, based on a community driven evaluation.
