| Abstract |
|
Rather than being a major (and uncontrollable) source of instability to a COTS extension, upgrades of COTS products — over a ten year period — have produced little or no impact on our extensions. We hypothesize that this evolution stability is not an accident, but rather the result of the architectures in which those extensions were developed.
