The Usefulness of Relational Concept Analysis (RCA) for Remodularization of a Software Architecture Composed of Classes and Packages

In a previous study we proceeded to the remodularization architecture based on classes and packages using the Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) [2, 13, 14], we then got two possible remodularized architectures and we explored the issue of redistributing classes of a package to other packages, we used an approach based on Oriented Graph to determine the packages that receive the redistributed classes and we evaluated the quality of a remodularized software architecture by metrics[1]. This paper presents the usefulness of relational concept analysis (RCA) for remodularization of a software architecture composed of classes and packages and we evaluate the quality of the result by metrics of coupling and cohesion
