ABSTRACT
Software evolution is, ever more, a critical concern for most business organizations. In spite of many promises, software development techniques, such as Object-Oriented ones, have fallen short of addressing this problem. We show how new technologies based on the notion of "coordination contract" can be deployed for managing the levels of change imposed by the evolution of requirements and technological environments, both in terms of semantic modeling and tool support.
