基于DSM的软件架构重构工具

A tool based on DSM for software architecture reconstruction

目的探索目前软件架构重构过程中,模块之间依赖关系解析的有效方法和工具。方法将设计结构矩阵分析方法和包模式识别相结合,通过实例分析表明了该工具可以有效识别系统架构信息并发现违背设计规则的依赖关系。结果设计并实现了一个软件架构重构工具ArTDsm。结论极大地改进了软件架构重构的自动化程度和易用性。

Aim The key technique of software architecture reconstruction （SAR） is the level of dependence analysis of between modules. Methods A variety of algorithms such as partitioning algorithm are available to help organize the matrix in a form that reflects the architecture patterns and problematic dependencies that violate the de- sign rules. Finally, a case study and evaluation for ArTDsm is described. Results A new tool called ArTDsm based on dependency structrue martrix（DSM） for SAR is introduced. Conclusion The results illustrate that it is easily to identify and locate violations and keep the code and its architecture in conformance with one another software maintenance base on the tool which is proposed.
