چکیده
17 The Cambridge Rocketry Simulator can be used to simulate the flight of unguided 18 rockets for both design and operational applications. The software consists of three 19 parts; the first part is a GUI that enables the user to design a rocket. The second 20 part is a verified and peer-reviewed physics model that simulates the rocket flight. 21 This includes a Monte Carlo wrapper to model the uncertainty in the rocket’s dy22 namics and the atmospheric conditions. The third part generates visualizations 23 UP JORS: Cambridge Rocketry Simulator of the resulting trajectories, including nominal performance and uncertainty ana24 lysis, e.g. a splash-down region with confidence bounds. The project is available on 25 SourceForge, and is written in Java (GUI), C++ (simulation core) and Python (visu26 alization). While all parts can be executed from the GUI, the three components 27 share information via XML, accommodating modifications, and re-use of individual 28 components. 29

متن کاملThe social structure of Open Source Software development teams
Open Source Software development teams provide an interesting and convenient setting for studying distributed work. We begin by answering perhaps the most basic question: what is the social structure of these teams? Based on a social network analysis of interactions represented in 62,110 bug reports from 122 large and active projects, we find that some OSS teams are highly centralized, but cont...

متن کاملDefining Open Source Software Project Success
Information systems success is one of the most widely used dependent variables in information systems research. In this paper, we identify a range of measures that can be used to assess the success of Open Source Software (OSS) projects. We identify measures based on a review of the literature, a consideration of the OSS development process and an analysis of the opinions of OSS developers. For...
متن کاملDevelopment of a goal programming model for optimization of truck allocation in open pit mines
Truck and shovel operations comprise approximately 60% of the total operating costs in open pit mines. In order to increase productivity and reduce the cost of mining operations, it is essential to manage the equipment used with high efficiency. In this work, the chance-constrained goal programing (CCGP) model presented by Michalakopoulos and Panagiotou is developed to determine an optimal truc...
متن کاملA Structurational Model of the Dynamics of Free/Libre Open Source Software Development Teams
Research on human and social behaviour is increasingly characterized by a focus on dynamics: on the evolution of formal and informal organizations over time. In this paper, we present a structurational model of the dynamics of distributed ICT-supported teams of Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) developers. The model includes the dynamics through which members form shared mental models, in...
