Abstract We propose Exact Software Design Mining (ESDM)as a new approach to managing large software systems. ESDM is concerned with automatically extracting a program generator capable of exactly reconstructing the full code base. To illustrate thepotential effectiveness of this approach, we propose,implement, and test a basic algorithm extractingsuch generators. Experimental results on variousbenchmarks (including the Linux kernel) are encouraging.
