Bilateral Grants with Industry

Berger-Levrault: Remodularization of Architecture

Participants: Nicolas Anquetil, Santiago Bragagnolo, Stéphane Ducasse, Anne Etien, Benoît Verhaeghe

From 2017, ongoing.

We started a new collaboration with the software editor Berger-Levrault about software architecture remodularization. The collaboration started with an end study project exploring the architecture used in the company in order to later migrate from GWT to Angular since GWT will not be backward supported anymore in the next versions. A PhD CIFRE thesis started in 2019: Benoît Verhaeghe, Support à l’automatisation de la migration d’interface d’applications Web : le cas de GWT vers Angular.

Arolla: Machine Learning-Based Recommenders to Support Software Evolution

Participants: Nicolas Anquetil, Stéphane Ducasse, Anne Etien, Oleksandr Zaitsev

We started a new collaboration with the council company, Arolla, about software evolution. Arolla has daily problems with identifying architecture, design, and deviations from those artifacts. The goal of the thesis is to experiment which learning techniques can help with semi-automatically extracting design and architectural aspects and their violations. A PhD CIFRE has started in 2019: Oleksandr Zaitsev, Machine Learning-Based Tools to Support Software Evolution.

A second CIFRE around legacy system cartography will start in 2020.
