Applying a Reference Framework to Open Source Software Process Discovery
نویسندگان
چکیده
The successes of open source software development have inspired commercial organizations to adopt similar techniques in hopes of improving their own processes without regard to the software process context that provided this success. This paper describes a reference framework for software process discovery in open source software development communities that provides this context. The reference framework given here characterizes the entities present in open source communities that interplay in the form of software processes, discusses how these entities are encoded in data found in community Web spaces, and demonstrates how it can be applied in discovery.

Guiding the Discovery of Open Source Software Processes with a Reference Model
This paper describes a reference model for open source software (OSS) processes and its application towards discovering such processes from OSS project artifacts. This reference model is the means to map evidence of an enacted process to a classification of agents, resources, tools, and activities that characterize the process.

This paper presents SemLinker, an open source system that discovers named entities, connects them to a reference knowledge base, and clusters them semantically. SemLinker relies on several modules that perform surface form generation, mutual disambiguation, entity clustering, and make use of two annotation engines. SemLinker was evaluated in the English Entity Discovery and Linking track of the...

Recent disasters, such as the 2010 Haiti earthquake, have drawn attention to the potential role of citizens as active information producers. By using location-aware devices such as smartphones to collect geographic information in the form of geo-tagged text, photos, or videos, and sharing this information through online social media, such as Twitter, citizens create Volunteered Geographic Infor...
متن کاملDiscovering and Modeling Open Source Software Processes
Open source software (OSS) development has been shown effective as a software development paradigm. In over twenty years since its origin, we have learned a lot about its culture and motivations. Yet despite great interest in its lessons for process improvement, understanding, and participation among corporations, researchers, and would-be participants, few have actually sought to discover and ...
متن کاملCommon characteristics of open source software development and applicability for drug discovery: a systematic review
BACKGROUND Innovation through an open source model has proven to be successful for software development. This success has led many to speculate if open source can be applied to other industries with similar success. We attempt to provide an understanding of open source software development characteristics for researchers, business leaders and government officials who may be interested in utiliz...
