Description: |
Refactoring is one of the newer fads of ad hoc software engineering. It comprises of an ever-growing number of allegedly behaviour-preserving program transformation rules. Your task is to investigate one or more of: 1. the soundness of these rules 2. the effect of refactoring on software metrics scores 3. the feasibility of an automated tool that combines genetic algorithms with refactoring and software metrics |
