Source code reorganization

Objective

Justification

During maintenance phases, developers don't write information in the appropriate files, but rather in the files they are currently working on. This increases the number of dependencies between files. Consequently, the reuse of some files in future applications becomes impossible, due to the presence of too much code being useless in the new context.

Languages

Controls

Search for sub programs which are not in the most appropriate files, regarding the variables they manipulate.

Elimination of useless file inclusions.
