   ABSTRACT     = {Modern software uses frameworks through their 
      Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). Framework APIs may change 
      while frameworks evolve. Client programs have to upgrade to new 
      releases of frameworks if security vulnerabilities are discovered in 
      the used releases. Patching security vulnerabilities can be delayed 
      by non-security-related API changes when the frameworks used by 
      client programs are not up to date. Keeping frameworks updated can 
      reduce the reaction time to patch security leaks. Client program 
      upgrades are not cost free, developers need to understand the API 
      usages in client programs and API changes between framework releases 
      before conduct upgrading tasks. In this paper, we propose a tool ACUA 
      to generate reports containing detailed API change and usage 
      information by analyzing the binary code of both frameworks and 
      clients programs written in Java. Developers can use the API change 
      and usage reports generated by ACUA to estimate the work load and 
      decide when to starting upgrading client programs based on the 
      estimation.}
