Composite Operation Recovering

and Detection

• Elementary operations are low-level

• Users might have difficult to understand modifications

Composite Operation Recovering and Detection

Source code: recover refactoring operations from

tow program versions based on template rules (Prete

et al., 2010)

UML: detect refactoring operations by applying

queries on UMLDiff to (Xing and Stroulia, 2005)

Any Ecore based modeling languages: detects composite operations between two successive models (Langer et al.,

2013)

To fully benefit from DSM tools: It is important to ensure collaboration among DSM tools.

This work has proposed a framework for collaboration that:

• lets members to work in isolation

• introduces main-line & branch concept helps to manage communication

• modification is managed by a human controller

• modification management role is flexible
