  text: The maintenance of component-based software systems requires up-to-date models
    of their concrete architecture, i.e. the architecture that is realised in the
    source code. These models help in systematically planning, analysing and executing
    typical reengineering activities. Often no or only outdated architectural models
    of such systems exist. Therefore, various reverse engineering methods have been
    developed which try to recover a system's components, subsystems and connectors.
    However, these reverse engineering methods are severely impacted by design deciencies
    in the system's code base, especially violations of the component encapsulation.
    As long as design deciencies are not considered in the reverse engineering process,
    they reduce the quality of the recovered component structures. Despite this impact
    of design deciencies, no existing architecture reconstruction approach explicitly
    integrates a systematic deciency detection and removal into the recovery process.
    Therefore, I have developed Archimetrix. Archimetrix is a tool-supported architecture
    reconstruction process. It enhances a clustering-based architecture recovery approach
    with an extensible, pattern-based deciency detection. After the detection of deciencies,
    Archimetrix supports the software architect in removing the de ciencies and provides
    the means to preview the architectural consequences of such a removal. I also
    provide a process to identify and formalise additional deciencies. I validated
    the approach on three case studies which show that Archimetrix is able to identify
    relevant deciencies and that the removal of these deciencies leads to an increased
    quality of the recovered architectures, i.e. they are closer to the corresponding
    conceptual architectures.
