Serious Games for Software Refactoring. [PDF]
, 2019 Software design issues can severely impede software development and maintenance. Thus, it is important for the success of software projects that developers are aware of bad smells in code artifacts and improve their skills to reduce these issues via refactoring. However, software refactoring is a complex activity and involves multiple tasks and aspects.

Case study on software refactoring tactics
IET Software, 2014 Refactorings might be done using two different tactics: root canal refactoring and floss refactoring. Root canal refactoring is to set aside an extended period specially for refactoring. Floss refactoring is to interleave refactorings with other programming tasks. However, no large‐scale case study on refactoring tactics is available.

BoneJ2 - refactoring established research software [PDF]
Wellcome Open Research, 2021 Research software is often developed with expedience as a core development objective because experimental results, but not the software, are specified and resourced as a project output. While such code can help find answers to specific research questions, it may lack longevity and flexibility to make it reusable.

Refactoring Legacy Software for Layer Separation
International Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering, 2021 One of the main aims in the layered software architecture is to divide the code into different layers so that each layer contains related modules and serves its upper layers. Although layered software architecture is matured now; many legacy information systems do not benefit from the advantages of this architecture and their code for the process ...
