In this paper, we build on ArchOptions to devise an options-based model, which values the architectural flexibility that results from a refactoring exercise. This value assists in understanding the payoff of investing in refactoring: if the refactored system results in an architecture that is more flexible, such that the expected added value (in the form of options) due to the en-hanced flexibility outweighs the cost of investing in this exer-cise, then refactoring is said to payoff. We apply our model to a refactoring case study from the literature."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716> <http://purl.org/dc/terms/date> "2004" . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/document/389> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/Document> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/org/ext-d7f8ce4a9411b7b7dd7622a359e19afe> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Organization> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/org/ext-d7f8ce4a9411b7b7dd7622a359e19afe> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name> "IEE (Institution of Electrical Engineers)"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716> <http://purl.org/dc/terms/publisher> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/org/ext-d7f8ce4a9411b7b7dd7622a359e19afe> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/status> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/status/peerReviewed> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/status> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/status/published> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716> <http://purl.org/dc/terms/creator> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-4ca2b6d35d3a0615ee257541bf277a36> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/authorList> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716#authors> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716#authors> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#_1> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-4ca2b6d35d3a0615ee257541bf277a36> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716> <http://purl.org/dc/terms/creator> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-438ee4cbdc5eb898faf7533e58377bb6> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/authorList> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716#authors> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/716#authors> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#_2> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-438ee4cbdc5eb898faf7533e58377bb6> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-4ca2b6d35d3a0615ee257541bf277a36> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Person> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-4ca2b6d35d3a0615ee257541bf277a36> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/givenName> "R."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-4ca2b6d35d3a0615ee257541bf277a36> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/familyName> "Bahsoon"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-4ca2b6d35d3a0615ee257541bf277a36> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name> "R.
