TogetherSoft will be presenting some strategies and tools for refactoring.

Hello Again,

This months meeting of the Orlando Java Users Group is coming up on July 25 and will be hosted by Federal Express in Maitland.

Presentation: "Software Remodeling: Improving Design & Implementation Quality"
------------------------------------------
This Presentation will focus on the principles and concepts for audits, metrics and refactoring as they relate to both implementation and design. Utilizing case studies and code reviews of popular open source code, the seminar will focus on the following:

  • The impact of audits on performance, error reduction and standards conformance.
  • The ease and speed with which audit violations can be detected and corrected from within Together� ControlCenterT
  • The benefits of code metrics in providing quantitative measures of design complexity, coupling, cohesion, etc.
  • The emerging risks associated with a typical large enterprise code base and their mitigation through metrics.
  • The application of metrics-driven refactoring techniques to improve the design and maintainability of software.
