Configuration-aware software documentation
Configurability is a common property of software allowing programs to be customized for theuser. While configurability is pervasive, it can also lead to faults (or misconfigurations) and make program evolution challenging. Dependencies can be missed, essential code can be left in place when a …

Software Documentation Guidelines For Maintainability
<p>Software maintenance is the final stage in the software engineering process; and can also be the longest and most costly. The ability of, and ease in which software upkeep and change is performed is an important software quality attribute called maintainability. Software maintenance however is …

Automatic detection of constraints in software documentation
Software documentation is an important resource when maintaining and evolving software, as it supports developers in program understanding. To keep it up to date, developers need to verify that all the constraints affected by a change in source code are consistently described in the documentation. …

A research experiment to evaluate the acceptability of microcomputer software documentation
Microcomputer software users require varying degrees of instructional assistance to effectively operate the software they purchase. Chapter I recognizes that this demand for quality documentation places a burden upon software suppliers to expend additional time, energy, and money to satisfy users. …
