Design Patterns in Software Maintenance:
An Experimental
Replication at University of Alabama
Aziz Nanthaamornphong and Jeffrey C. Carver
2nd International Workshop on Replications in Empirical Software Engineering Research
This page contains experimental materials and data
from an experimental replication conducted by Aziz Nanthaamornphong and
Jeffrey C. Carver. The replication was conducted in the context of the
joint replication project for the
2011 RESER Workshop.
Our replication added some additional materials that were not part of the original experiment. Because the original experimental materials are available via the links above, we only provide the new materials added for our study.
