2 The Nature of Maintenance
Maintenance + Evolution Corrective: Correct faults and errors Adaptive: Adapt to changes in environment - business rule, gov’t policies. ex) bank and ECU Perfective: Accommodate new user requirements - successful product results in more changes - example: adding online HELP command Preventive: Increase maintainability - example: code restructuring, documentation updating

3 The Nature of Maintenance (Con’t)
Maintenance is expensive (money, time) $ 70 billion for 10 billion lines of code spent annually in US Comprises half time of the total life cycle of software : 49% for pharmaceutical, 75% for automobile companies 50% is spent on Perfective maintenance Maintenance is product + service Consumers judge the quality of the software maintenance in service aspect

4 Why include it? 80% of the 100 billion lines of code in production in the world is unstructured, patched, badly documented Lost pet fees cost Toronto $700,000

5 Maintenance Process Models
Quick fix model Boehm’s model Osborne’s model Iterative Enhancement model Reuse oriented model

6 Reverse Engineering Reverse Engineering Recover lost information
Facilitate migration between platforms Improve/provide documentation Prove alternative views Extract reusable components Cope complexity

7 Tasks Analysis/isolation tasks Change design Code/unit test
Testing- integration, acceptance and regression Documentation Reuse and Reusability Program Understanding Management and Organizational Issues

8 Tools/Products Selection criterias Capability Features Cost/benefit
Platform Programming language Ease of use Openness of architecture Stability of vendor Organizational culture

9 Iterative Development
Small iterations for each change made Conduct meetings throughout the iterations In maintenance, a new iteration for each new feature or fixed bug

10 Types of Iterative Development
Extreme Programming (XP) Shortest possible iterations Test-First Testing Acceptance Tests Rational Unified Process (RUP) Document User Requirements Update user requirements throughout the process Scrum Daily meetings Four phases: Planning, Architecture, Sprints, Closure

11 Maintenance and Iterative Dev
Don’t change the whole system at once Minimize downtime Ensure final product adheres to user requirements Small iterations, small fixes

12 Agile Software Development and Maintenance
Industry and technology move extremely fast Requirements change at rates that swamp traditional methods Customers have become increasingly unable to definitively state their needs upfront while expected more from their software The Agile method is an alternative to documentation driven, heavyweight software development processes.

13 Agile Software Development and Maintenance
Agile Manifesto Individuals and interactions over valued over processes and tools Working software over comprehensive documentation Customer collaboration over contract negotiation Responding to change over following a plan Goals Primary goal – deliver working software Secondary goal – set up other work products for the next game (e.g. maintenance)

14 Agile Software Development and Maintenance
Since this method considers setting up tools such as comprehensive documentation a secondary objective, subsequent stages in the software’s life cycle such as maintenance are harder to implement. However, the best way to go about the actual maintenance stage is probably the Agile method because of its very nature stemming from its primary focus on delivering working software.

15 Component Based Software Dvelopment
construction of software systems that makes use of reusable components. develop software systems by selecting appropriate off-the shelf components and then assemble them with a well-defined software architecture. Components and Glue codes Components Glue codes Real World Applications Enterprise JavaBean, COM , CORBA, etc.

16 Maintenance in CBSD Role of Maintainers of CBSD is different from that in other custom-built systems. Maintenance Activities for CBSD Glueing and wrapping Tailoring: Fault identification and isolation Updating component configuration Monitoring and auditing system behavior Component testing

17 Advantages and Disadvantages of CBSD
Components can be reused they are written only once, and then assembled with their ability to be reused. Components do not rely on the surrounding system, and the surroundings of a component have no need to know exactly how it performs. Increased cost efficiency and productivity Making use of the components is complex For the developer or maintainer there will be the requirement to keep, a catalogue of the different components and have a good understanding of the different interfaces and the way they work in order to understand the system.

18 Open source - Blurring the Line
Software is available before version 1.0 Blurs the line between development and maintenance Akin to incremental development Are now a nearly infinite number of increments Users are co-developers

19 Linus’s Law “Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow”
“Debugging is parallelizable” “The total cost of maintaining a widely used program is typically 40% or more of the cost of developing it. Surprisingly this cost is strongly affected by the number of users. More users find more bugs.” - Frederick P. Brooks, Mythical Man Month

20 Third Party Maintenance
Because source is open, anyone can maintain a project Not just developer Companies such as Red Hat, Mandrake SuSE offer maintenance for Linux

21 Summary Estimated at 50% of software life cycle Number of models exist
Method used to develop the software will affect maintenance Questions?
