Documenting-in-the-large vs. Documenting-in-the-small - Tilley (1993)   (2 citations)  (Correct)

....approaches to the software process have placed too much emphasis on the artificial distinction between development and maintenance. Evolution begins early in the development process, and the distinction between development and maintenance should be abandoned in favor of an evolutionary process [4]. The implication of this shift in focus, from developing new systems to maintaining and upgrading existing ones, means one must be able to understand the design of the system before one can build on top of it. While design may be difficult [5] reconstructing and effectively (re)documenting the ....

....are enforced. Moreover, procedural representation of business policies requires the execution model for the policies (e.g. the order) to be coded, whereas if policies have been represented declaratively then, it is the environment that chooses the policy to be applied whenever the situation arises [11]. This level of indirection allows the policy execution logic to be removed from the process code, and placed independently. Hence, policy evolution is easier to accomplish if policies are declaratively and independently supported rather than being embedded in conventional programs [17] A clear ....

....software evolution, which refers to the on going enhancements of existing software systems, involving both development and maintenance. Since evolution begins early in the development phase, the distinction between development and maintenance should be abandoned in favor of an evolutionary process [2, 3]. In fact, learning to master evolving systems was recently identified as paramount for future software engineering research [4] Central to the software evolution challenge is program understanding. For large legacy systems, 1 this is a very difficult task. Unless one has been with a project ....
