A framework to aid in decision making for technical debt management

Garbajosa Sopeña, Juan; Yagüe Panadero, Agustín

Abstract:

Current technical debt management approaches mainly address specific types of technical debt. This paper introduces a framework to aid in decision making for technical debt management, and it includes those elements considered in technical debt management in the available literature, which are classified in three groups and mapped into three stakeholders' points of view. The research method was systematic mapping. In contrast to current approaches, the framework is not constrained by a concrete type of technical debt. Using this framework it will be possible to build specific models to assist in decision making for technical debt management.
