On the Automatic Detection and Correction of Design Defects [pdf]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
Design defects, antipatterns, code smells are software defects at the architectural level that must be detected and corrected to improve software quality. Automatic detection and correction of these software architectural defects, which suffer of a lack of tools, are important to ease the maintenance of objectoriented architectures and thus to reduce the cost of maintenance. A clear understanding of the different types of software architectural defects defects and a classification of these defects is necessary before proposing any techniques related to their detection or correction. We introduce a first classification and summarise existing techniques. Then, we introduce some challenges that our community must meet.
