title = {Using Restructuring Transformations to Reengineer
Object-Oriented Systems},
year = {1997},
abstract = {Applying object-oriented design methods and languages
does not guarantee that the resulting software
systems will be flexible and adaptable. The
industrial partners in the FAMOOS project have
learned this lesson the hard way: they are now faced
with large and rigid software systems that hamper
them in meeting a diverse and evolving set of
customer requirements. Object-oriented frameworks are
touted as a promising solution, but it is unclear how
to transform object-oriented legacy systems into
frameworks. This paper proposes an approach ---i.e, a
methodology and tools--- for re-engineering
object-oriented systems towards frameworks by means
of high-level and low-level restructuring
transformations that detect and resolve architectural
and detailed design anomalies, and improve
application flexibility and adaptability.},
