Title: Studies on Developers, Refactoring and Code Smells

Date: Monday, November 28th, 2016

Time: 10:30 a.m.

Place: EV1.162

ABSTRACT

This talk presents the results of a series of studies focused on three topics: what developers think about code smells, the interplay between code smells and different maintenance (programming-related) activities; and the relationships between code smells, refactorings and developers. In addition, the talk will present taxonomies for different phenomena within software development that can aid on the design of empirical studies on software evolution.
