Information and automated production systems are long-living, evolvable systems. Consequently, modifications are performed to correct, improve or adapt the respective system. In this, we introduce different approaches to analyze maintainability of software-intensive systems and propose two different case studies -- from the information and from the automated production systems domain -- to conduct empirical research as a basis to validate approaches on system evolution.
