Evref: Reflective Evolution of Ever-running Software Systems
Sté́phane Ducasse · HAL (Le Centre pour la Communication Scientifique Directe) · 2023
The objectives of Evref are to study and support the continuous evolution of large software systems in a holistic manner following three main axes: (1) analyses and approaches for migration and evolution of existing (legacy) systems, (2) new tools to support daily evolution, and (3) infrastructure to build language runtimes to support software evolution, new tools, frugal systems, and security language features. In the context of the first axis, Evref proposes a specific research agenda with Berger-Levrault R&D.
