Research Paper: Open Source License Inconsistencies on GitHub
Abstract: Almost all software, open or closed, builds on open source software and therefore needs to comply with the license obligations of the open source code. Not knowing which licenses to comply with poses a legal danger to anyone using open source software. This article investigates the extent of inconsistencies between licenses declared by an […]

Research Paper: Management Accounting Concepts for Inner Source Software Engineering
Abstract: Inner source software development is the use of open source development’s best practices inside a company. In inner source, developers collaborate on reusable software components across company’s internal organizational silo boundaries for mutual benefit. As such, inner source goes against the grain of traditional management techniques. In this article, we present two conceptual models […]Abstract: Inner source software development is the use of open source development’s best practices inside a company.

Research Paper: Challenges to Open Collaborative Data Engineering
Abstract: Open data is data that can be used, modified, and passed on, for free, similar to open-source software. Unlike open-source, however, there is little collaboration in open data engineering. We perform a systematic literature review of collaboration systems in open data, specifically for data engineering by users, taking place after data has been made […]

Research Paper: A Research Model for the Economic Assessment of Inner Source Software Development
Abstract: Inner source is the use of open-source practices within companies. It enables more efficient software development, shortens time-to-market, and lowers costs through increased company-internal collaboration. While existing studies examine social and organizational impact factors on inner source adoption, only a few have looked at measuring and economically assessing inner source. This article presents an […]Abstract: Inner source is the use of open-source practices within companies.

Research Paper: Open Source Software Governance: A Case Study Evaluation of Supply Chain Management Best Practices
Abstract: Corporate open source governance aims to manage the increasing use of free/libre and open source software (FLOSS) in companies. To avoid the risks of the ungoverned use, companies need to establish processes addressing license compliance, component approval, and supply chain management (SCM). We proposed a set of industry-inspired best practices for supply chain management […]

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.
