Abstract

We aim to simulate software processes in order to predict the structural evolution of software graphs and assure higher software quality. To make our simulation and therefore the results more accurate, we need to model real world practices. In this paper, we consider the specific problem of including software refactorings in our simulation. We describe these refactorings as graph transformations and apply parameters we collected from open source projects.
