A MODEL BASED ON COMPLEX DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS CONCEPTS FOR CLASSDIAGRAMS RELATIONSHIP'S STRUCTURE STABILITY ANALISYS
Jose Cassio dos Santos, Kechi Hirama · International Conference on Information Systems, Technology and Management · 2008
The possibility of software evolution analysis during its life cycle permit to monitor if its maintenance process is under control or not. In this context, new approaches have arisen dealing with software evolution as a complex process. Following this line of thought, the present study attempt to join concepts of two theories that are used in the study of complex dynamical systems: the Information Theory and the Deterministic Chaos Theory, in order to propose a model that allows object oriented software classification according with its class structure stability.
