New Funded Project on Economic Assessment of Inner Source Software Development
The BMBF is sponsoring a new project of ours. Summary Inner Source ist die Verwendung von Softwareentwicklungsmethoden aus der Open-Source-Welt innerhalb einer Organisation. Eine Organisation, die Inner Source einführt, legt Teile ihres Quelltexts und andere Artefakte intern offen und ermöglicht es Entwickler:innen innerhalb der Organisation Änderungen zum Quelltext beizutragen. Dadurch ermöglicht Inner Source es, organisatorische […]The BMBF is sponsoring a new project of ours.

Research Paper: The Benefits of Pre-Requirements Specification Traceability
Abstract: Requirements traceability is the ability to trace requirements to other software engineering artifacts. Traceability can be classified as either pre- or post-requirements specifications (RS) traceability. Pre-RS traceability is the ability to trace between requirements and their origin. However, the benefits of pre-RS traceability are often not clear. In this article, we systematically lay out […]Abstract: Requirements traceability is the ability to trace requirements to other software engineering artifacts.

Research Paper: Calculating the Costs of Inner Source Collaboration by Computing the Time Worked
Abstract: A key part of taxation, controlling, and management of international collaborative programming workflows is determining the costs of a supplied software artifact. The OECD suggests the use of the Cost Plus method for calculating these costs. However, in the past, this method has been implemented using only coarse-grain data from the costs of whole […]

Research Paper: A validation of QDAcity‐RE for domain modeling using qualitative data analysis
Abstract: Using qualitative data analysis (QDA) to perform domain analysis and modeling has shown great promise. Yet, the evaluation of such approaches has been limited to single-case case studies. While these exploratory cases are valuable for an initial assessment, the evaluation of the efficacy of QDA to solve the suggested problems is restricted by the […]

Dissertation: Domain Modeling Using Qualitative Data Analysis (Dr. Andreas Kaufmann)
Abstract: The creation of domain models from qualitative input relies heavily on experience. An uncodified ad-hoc modeling process is still common and leads to poor documentation of the requirements analysis. In this thesis, we present a novel method for domain analysis based on qualitative data analysis (QDA). The method helps identifying inconsistencies, ensures a high […]

Industry Best Practices for Component Approval in Open Source Governance
Abstract: Increasingly companies realize the value of using free/libre and open source software (FLOSS) in their products, but need to manage the associated risks. Leading companies introduce open source governance as a solution. A key aspect of corporate FLOSS governance deals with choosing and evaluating open source components for use in products. Following an industry-based […]
