Abstract
This paper outlines plans for the proposed development of a theory of software evolution. Apart from its intrinsic value, such a theory will advance understanding of the attributes of this phenomenon, its drivers and its practical impact on the software process and its products. If achieved, such a theory will provide means to identify and justify best practice in a world increasingly dependent on computers, where continuous software process improvement is of major, universal concern. Keywords Best practice, management guidelines, software evolution, software evolution theory. 1.
