Abstract

Complicated business logic makes program complexity more complicated. It's inevitable that the program must undergo reengineering processes all the way of in its lifetime. Hot spot analysis that has diverse purposes is getting an important question more and more. As a rule, reengineering process is done by UML model-based approach to analyze the legacy system. The smallest fragment of targets to be analysed is unit, that is function or class. Today's software development is to deal with huge change of software product and huge class including heavy quantity of LOC(Lines Of Code). However, analysis of unit is not precise approach process for reliable reengineering consequence. In this paper, we propose very precise hot spot analysis approach using Aspect-Oriented Programming languages, such as AspectJ. Typically the consistency between UML and source is needed code to redefine the modified library or framework boundaries. But reengineering approach using AOP doesn't need to analyze UML and source code. This approach makes dynamic event log data that contains detailed program interaction information. This dynamic event log data makes it possible to analyze hot spot.

현실 세계의 복잡한 비즈니스 로직들이 프로그램 내부에 투영되면서 시스템의 복잡도는 갈수록 높아지고 있다. 이러한 높은 복잡도를 가지는 프로그램도 그 생명주기 동안 재공학을 거쳐야 하는 것은 필연적일 것이다. 다양한 목적으로 가해지는 재공학 작업에서 그 작업의 대상이 되는 핫 스팟 예측은 매우 중요하다. 일반적으로 레거시 시스템의 재공학 작업은 UML과 코드 분석을 기반으로 예측한다. 또한 그 예측 단위는 클래스 혹은 유닛(함수) 단위가 된다. 그러나 함수 내부의 코드의 량이 갈수록 커져가고 있고 더 미세한 핫 스팟을 찾기 위하여 클래스 단위의 탐색보다 더 미세한 부분의 탐색이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 AOP를 이용한 문장 단위의 핫 스팟 검출 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 기법에서 요구하던 핫 스팟 검출을 위한 UML과 코드 분석, 또한 이 둘 사이의 일치성과 관계없이 동적으로 AOP를 이용하여 레거시 시스템의 실행 정보를 기록하는 동적 이벤트 로그 데이터를 생성한다. 이를 바탕으로 핫 스팟을 예측하고 슬라이싱하는 방법을 제안하였다.
