Modularization Smells
Abstract
The principle of modularization advocates the creation of cohesive and loosely coupled abstractions. This chapter describes several key techniques that help apply the principle of modularization: localize related data and methods, decompose abstractions to manageable size, create acyclic dependencies, and limit dependencies. It then provides a detailed description of the following design smells that result from the violation of the principle of modularization: Broken Modularization, Insufficient Modularization, Cyclically-dependent Modularization, and Hub-like Modularization.
