Research Paper: Inner Source in Platform-based Product Engineering
Abstract: Inner source is an approach to collaboration across intra-organizational boundaries for the creation of shared reusable assets. Prior project reports on inner source suggest improved code reuse and better knowledge sharing. Using a multiple-case case study research approach, we analyze the problems that three major software development organizations were facing in their platform-based product […]Abstract: Inner source is an approach to collaboration across intra-organizational boundaries for the creation of shared reusable assets.

Research Paper: From Developer Networks to Verified Communities: A Fine-Grained Approach
Abstract: Effective software engineering demands a coordinated effort. Unfortunately, a comprehensive view on developer coordination is rarely available to support software-engineering decisions, despite the significant implications on software quality, software architecture, and developer productivity. We present a fine-grained, verifiable, and fully automated approach to capture a view on developer coordination, based on commit information and […]Abstract: Effective software engineering demands a coordinated effort.

Research Paper: How Developers Acquire FLOSS Skills
Abstract: With the increasing prominence of open collaboration as found in free/libre/open source software projects and other joint production communities, potential participants need to acquire skills. How these skills are learned has received little research attention. This article presents a large-scale survey (5,309 valid responses) in which users and developers of the beta release of […]

Research Paper: Improving Traceability of Requirements through Qualitative Data Analysis
Abstract: Traceability is an important quality aspect in modern software development. It facilitates the documentation of decisions and helps identifying conflicts regarding the conformity of one artifact to another. We propose a new approach to requirements engineering that utilizes qualitative research methods, which have been well established in the domain of social science. Our approach […]
