De Wit, M. (author), Zaidman, A. (author), Van Deursen, A. (author)Paper accepted for publication in the proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Software Maintenance (ICSM 2009). Code cloning is widely recognized as a threat to the maintainability of source code. As such, many clone detection and removal strategies have been proposed. However, some clones can often not be removed easily so other...report 2009

Hermans, F. (author), Pinzger, M. (author), Van Deursen, A. (author)Domain specific languages (DSLs) are languages in which the properties of a specific domain can be expressed. In this paper we present an empirical study on the use of a DSL in industry. This DSL encapsulates the details of services that communicate using Windows Communication Foundation (WCF). From definitions of the data contracts between...report 2009

Mesbah, A. (author), Van Deursen, A. (author)AJAX is a very promising approach for improving rich interactivity and responsiveness of web applications. At the same time, AJAX techniques increase the totality of the hidden web by shattering the metaphor of a web ‘page’ upon which general search engines are based. This paper describes a technique for exposing the hidden web content behind...report 2008
