Abstract:: Software (OSS) communities and that women disproportionately experience such barriers. However, this research has focused mainly on social/cultural factors, ignoring the environment itself — the tools and infrastructure. To shed some light onto how tools and infrastructure might somehow factor into OSS barriers to entry, we conducted a field study...

Abstract:: Distributed Version Control Systems (DVCS) have seen an increase in popularity relative to traditional Centralized Version Control Systems (CVCS). Yet we know little on whether developers are benefitting from the extra power of DVCS. Without such knowledge, researchers, developers, tool builders, and team managers are in the danger of making...

Abstract:: It is well established that annotating occurrences of entities in a collection of unstructured or semi-structured text documents with their concepts (i.e. entity sets), called semantic annotation, improves the effectiveness of answers to users’ queries. However, an enterprise has to spend large amount of financial, computational, and human resources to...

Creator:: Budd, Timothy and Oregon State University. Dept. of Computer Science
Abstract:: Object oriented programming languages are noted for their ability to allow users to quickly construct large software systems. They achieve this ability by allowing the programmer to concentrate on what it is they want to do, ignoring details of how that functionality is achieved. Such characteristics should make the object...

Abstract:: Current software development practices leave a plethora of activities that are archived in version control systems, issue trackers, mailing lists, or Question and Answer (Q&A) forums. Software managers are increasingly using these online activities to better evaluate job candidates. We introduce our tool, Visual Resume, that displays visual overviews of...

Abstract:: To avoid unresponsiveness, a core part of mobile development is asynchronous programming. Android provides several async constructs that developers can use. However, developers can still use the inappropriate async constructs, which result in memory leaks, lost results, and wasted energy. Fortunately, refactoring tools can eliminate these problems by transforming async...

Abstract:: Despite software history being indispensable for developers, there is little empirical knowledge about how they examine software history. Without such knowledge, researchers and tool builders are in danger of making wrong assumptions and building inadequate tools. In this paper we present an in-depth empirical study about the motivations developers have...

Abstract:: A bad software development process leads to wasted effort and inferior products. In order to improve a software process, it is important to first understand it. Our unique approach in this paper is to use code and test changes to understand conformance to a process. We analyze the meaning of...

Abstract:: Three-dimensional symmetric tensor fields have a wide range of applications in solid and fluid mechanics. Recent advances in the topological analysis of 3D symmetric tensor fields focus on the local behaviors of tensor fields at degenerate points, which usually form curves. In this paper, we make a number of observations...
