Measuring and Monitoring Technical Debt [PDF]
, 2011 Abstract Technical debt is a metaphor for immature, incomplete, or inadequate artifacts in the software development lifecycle that cause higher costs and lower quality in the long run. These artifacts remaining in a system affect subsequent development and maintenance activities, and so can be seen as a type of debt that the system developers owe the

Modelling Propagation of Technical Debt
2016 42th Euromicro Conference on Software Engineering and Advanced Applications (SEAA), 2016 Noting the overwhelming speed during software development, and particularly in environments where rapid delivery is the norm, the lack of accumulated technical debt information could result in ineffective management. We introduce technical debt propagation channels in this paper to advance software maintenance research on two accounts: (1) We describe ...
