Complex networks are everywhere. The object-oriented software system is a typical example. Based on analyzing evolving structure of the Object-Oriented software systems, we consider accelerating growth of network as power-law growth, which can be easily generalized to real systems as better than linearly growing ones. For scale-free network with preferential linking and increasing links via a power...
Mutation analysis is a program testing method which seeds a fault in a program and tries to identify it with test data, thus promoting the test efficiency. The paper investigates the application of mutation analysis in model-based testing for the modeling language of finite state machines (FSM). We describe a set of mutation operators for FSM based on the fault category; present an algorithm of selecting...
Over the last four decades, particular interest in software complexities is how to measure and control coupling interactions of the various parts of object-oriented (OO) systems. This paper introduces a novel coupling metric, called global coupling metric, to evaluate coupling interactions between classes of object-oriented systems. The metric differs from the majority of existing metrics in two aspects:...
Software evolution and update play a vital role in software engineering. It has many advantages, such as improving the efficiency of programming, reducing the cost of maintenance and promoting the development of software systems. This paper further analyzes the evolution and update processes of three typical kinds of real-world object-oriented software systems by using the tools of complex networks...
