Abstract—Deep learning subsumes algorithms that automatically learn compositional representations. The ability of these models to generalize well has ushered in tremendous advanc...
Abstract—Over the past decade, both open source and commercial software projects have adopted contemporary peer code review practices as a quality control mechanism. Prior resear...
— Recent research has shown that drivers of success in online question answering encompass presentation quality as well as temporal and social aspects. Yet, we argue that also th...
— The paper presents an approach, namely iHDev, to recommend developers who are most likely to implement incoming change requests. The basic premise of iHDev is that the develope...
—In this paper, we present a novel industry dataset on static software and change metrics for Matlab/Simulink models and their corresponding auto-generated C source code. The dat...
—From its very inception, the study of software architecture has recognized architectural decay as a regularly occurring phenomenon in long-lived systems. Architectural decay is ...
—The reuse of free and open source software (FOSS) components is becoming more and more popular. They usually contain one or more software licenses describing the requirements an...
—The pull-based development model, enabled by git and popularised by collaborative coding platforms like BitBucket, Gitorius, and GitHub, is widely used in distributed software t...
—Throughout the years, empirical studies have found power law distributions in various measures across many software systems. However, surprisingly little is known about how they...
—Popular open-source software projects receive and review contributions from a diverse array of developers, many of whom have little to no prior involvement with the project. A r...
