Abstract
When an Incremental Approach is used to develop an object-oriented system, there is a risk that the class design will deteriorate in quality with each increment. This paper presents a technique for detecting classes that may be prone to deteriorate, or if deterioration has occurred assists with reengineering those classes. Experience with applying this technique to an industrial software development project is also discussed
