고품질 코드를 위한 정적 분석은 아직도 매우 필요한 영역이며, 또한 코드의 가시화는 개발자들에게 코드의 복잡한 모듈에 대한 가이드에 필요하다. 기존의 코드 가시화는 정적 분석의 코드 내부 정보들을 DB 테이블화 및 품질 지표(CK Metrics, Coupling, # function Calls, Bed smell) 질의어화, 그리고 추출된 정보를 가시화하는 것에만 초점을 두었다. 문제는 코드 내부 정보(Class, method, parameters, etc) 테이블들에 대한 join 연산 시 엄청난 시간과 리소스가 소모된다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해, 우리는 테이블 설계의 정규화를 제안한다. 또한 필요한 품질 지표의 질의를 통해 코드 내부 정보 추출하여 데이터 및 제어 복잡 모듈을 식별하여 refactoring 를 가이드 한다. 앞으로는 이 부분의 AI learning 을 통해 bad/good program 을 식별을 기대한다.

The power consumption and performance of hardware-based mobile and IoT embedded systems that require high specifications are one of the important issues of these systems. In particular, the problem of excessive power consumption is because it causes a problem of increasing heat generation and shortening the life of the device. In addition, in the same environment, software also needs to perform stable operation in limited power and memory, thereby increasing power consumption of the device. In order to solve these issues, we propose a Low level power improvement via identifying performance dissipation. The proposed method identifies complex modules (especially Cyclomatic complexity, Coupling & Cohesion) through code visualization, and helps to simplify low power code patterning and performance code. Therefore, through this method, it is possible to optimize the quality of the code by reducing power consumption and improving performance.

Bad smells are usually related to program source code, arising from bad design and programming practices. Refactoring activities are often motivated by the detection of bad smells. With the increasing adoption of Design-by-Contract (DBC) methodologies in formal software development, evidence of bad design practices can similarly be found in programs that combine actual production code with interface contracts. These contracts can be written in languages, such as the Java Modeling Language (JML), an extension to the Java syntax. This paper presents a catalog of bad smells that appear during DBC practice, considering JML as the language for specifying contracts. These smells are described over JML constructs, although several can appear in other DBC languages. The catalog contains 6 DBC smells. We evaluate the recurrence of DBC smells in two ways: first by describing a small study with graduate student projects, and second by counting occurrences of smells in contracts from the JML models application programming interface (API). This API contains classes with more than 1,600 lines in contracts. Along with the documented smells, suggestions are provided for minimizing the impact or even removing a bad smell. It is believed that initiatives towards the cataloging of bad smells are useful for establishing good design practices in DBC.

긴 파라미터 리스트(Long parameter list)는 소프트웨어 코드의 품질을 저해시키는 Bad Smell들 중 하나로써, 코드에 대한 이해도를 떨어뜨리고 코드의 변경을 어렵게 한다는 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하는 기법들 중 하나인 IPO(Introduce Parameter Object) 기법은 함께 사용되는 빈도가 높은 파라미터들을 하나의 클래스로 만든 후에 관련된 기능들을 해당 클래스의 메소드로 추출하여 사용하므로 코드의 중복을 막아 재사용성을 높이고 코드에 대한 이해도를 높일 수 있다. 하지만 IPO 기법의 주된 관심사는 파라미터 그룹의 발생 빈도에 초점을 두고 있으며, 커플링에 대한 고려가 충분히 이루어지지 않는다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 IPO 기법과 커플링의 관계를 분석하여 IPO 기법이 커플링까지 고려할 수 있도록 확장된 IPO기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 기존의 기법에 비해 더 낮은 커플링을 달성하여 고품질의 코드를 얻을 수 있다.

While the services of mobile devices like smart phone, tablet, and smart watch have been increased and varied, the software embedded into such devices has been also increased in size and functional complexity. Therefore, increasing operation time of mobile devices for serviceability became an important issue due to the limitation of battery power. Recent studies focus on the software development having efficient behavioral patterns because the energy consumption of mobile devices is caused by software behaviors which control the hardware operations. However, it is often difficult to develop the embedded software with considering energy-efficiency and behavior optimization due to the short development cycle of the mobile services in many cases. Therefore, this paper proposes the refactoring techniques for reducing energy consumption, and enables to fulfill the energy requirements during software development and maintenance. We defined energy bad smells with the code patterns that can excessively consume the energy, and our refactoring techniques are to remove these bad smells. We performed some case studies to verify the usefulness of our refactoring techniques.
