Softw. Technol. 53, No. 6, 601-614 (2011).} \itemab Summary: Component identification, the process of evolving legacy system into finely organized component-based software systems, is a critical part of software reengineering. Currently, many component identification approaches have been developed based on agglomerative hierarchical clustering algorithms. However, there is a lack of thorough investigation on which algorithm is appropriate for component identification. \itemrv{~} \itemcc{} \itemut{component identification; agglomerative hierarchical clustering algorithm; weighting scheme; similarity measure; legacy systems; software reengineering} \itemli{doi:10.1016/j.infsof.2011.01.006} \end
