This talk introduces our recent research on data-centric software health management. Based on the design rule theory, we model the architecture of a software system as multiple overlapping Design Spaces, reflecting the fact that any complex software system must contain multiple aspects, features, patterns, etc. We show that this model, integrated with various project data, provides new ways to analyze software quality, including a new metric called the Decoupling Level (DL), new architecture anti-pattern detection techniques, architecture hotspot analysis, and architectural debt quantification. We will also share our experience of applying the support tool suite, DV8, to multiple industrial projects.
