Abstract

Compatible with the recently proposed ontology of software maintenance, the paper proposes a fresh view of the types of software maintenance. The paper offers a classification based not on people's intentions, but upon objective evidence of activities based on documentation that may include the source code. The classification includes taking into account evidence of: 1) changes in the character and use of the documentation, 2) changes in the properties of the software, and 3) changes in the in the functionality of the software. The paper provides a hierarchic summary guide to the proposed fresh view of the types of software maintenance.
