Graph representations and graph algorithms are widely adopted to model and resolve problems in many different areas from telecommunications, to bio-informatics, to civil and software engineering. Many software artefacts such as the class diagram can be thought of as graphs and thus, many software evolution problems can be reformulated as a graph matching problem. In this paper, we investigate the applicability of an error-correcting graph matching algorithm to object-oriented software evolution and report results, obtained on a small system - the Latazza application -, supporting applicability and usefulness of our proposal.

Abstract
Graph representations and graph algorithms are widely adopted to model and resolve problems in many different areas from telecommunications, to bio-informatics, to civil and software engineering. Many software artefacts such as the class diagram can be thought of as graphs and thus, many software evolution problems can be reformulated as a graph matching problem. In this paper, we investigate the applicability of an error-correcting graph matching algorithm to object-oriented software evolution and report results, obtained on a small system - the Latazza application -, supporting applicability and usefulness of our proposal.
