dc.description.abstract | Similarities at analysis, design and implementation levels in software are great opportunities for reuse. When such similarities are not exploited, they can lead to repetitions in software (also called a??clonesa??). Most clones negatively affect software maintenance, but clones may also have benefits. We believe that the lack of a holistic approach to unify and reuse clones without loosing their benefits is behind the high levels of cloning in todaya??s software. This thesis proposes such a holistic solution to the cloning problem, paying particular attention to the Web application domain, as our survey showed that cloning is more severe in Web applications when compared to traditional applications. The a??mixed strategya?? (mixing meta-programming with conventional clone unification techniques) and the concept of a??structural clonesa?? (higher-level clones made up of patterns of lower-level clones) are the salient features of our solution. | |
