    A bioinspired discrete heuristic algorithm to generate the effective structural model of a program source code
    (Elsevier, 2023) Arasteh, Bahman; Sadegi, Razieh; Arasteh, Keyvan; Gunes, Peri; Kiani, Farzad; Torkamanian-Afshar, Mahsa
    When the source code of a software is the only product available, program understanding has a substantial influence on software maintenance costs. The main goal in code comprehension is to extract information that is used in the software maintenance stage. Generating the structural model from the source code helps to alleviate the software maintenance cost. Software module clustering is thought to be a viable reverse engineering approach for building structural design models from source code. Finding the optimal clustering model is an NP-complete problem. The primary goals of this study are to minimize the number of connections between created clusters, enhance internal connections inside clusters, and enhance clustering quality. The previous approaches' main flaws were their poor success rates, instability, and inadequate modularization quality. The Olympiad optimization algorithm was introduced in this paper as a novel population-based and discrete heuristic algorithm for solving the software module clustering problem. This algorithm was inspired by the competition of a group of students to increase their knowledge and prepare for an Olympiad exam. The suggested algorithm employs a divide-and-conquer strategy, as well as local and global search methodologies. The effectiveness of the suggested Olympiad algorithm to solve the module clustering problem was evaluated using ten real-world and standard software benchmarks. According to the experimental results, on average, the modularization quality of the generated clustered models for the ten benchmarks is about 3.94 with 0.067 standard deviations. The proposed algorithm is superior to the prior algorithms in terms of modularization quality, convergence, and stability of results. Furthermore, the results of the experiments indicate that the proposed algorithm can be used to solve other discrete optimization problems efficiently. (c) 2023 The Author(s).

    Duzen: generating the structural model from the software source code using shuffled frog leaping algorithm
    (SPRINGER LONDON, 2022) Arasteh, Bahman; Karimi, Mohammad Bagher; Sadegi, Razieh
    The cost of software maintenance is heavily influenced by program understanding. When the source code is the only product accessible, maintainers spend a significant amount of effort trying to understand the structure and behavior of the software. Program module clustering is a useful reverse-engineering technique for obtaining the software structural model from source code. Finding the best clustering is regarded as an NP-hard optimization problem, and several meta-heuristic methods have been employed to solve it. The fundamental flaws of the prior approaches were their insufficient performance and effectiveness. The major goals of this research are to achieve improved software clustering quality and stability. A new method (Duzen) is proposed in this research for improving software module clustering. As a meta-heuristic memetic algorithm, this technique employs the shuffled frog-leaping algorithm. The Duzen results were investigated and compared to those produced using earlier approaches. In terms of obtaining the best clustering quality, the proposed method was shown to be better and more successful than the others; it also had higher data stability and data convergence to optimal replies in a fewer number of repetitions. Furthermore, it acquired a higher data mean and a faster clustering execution time.
