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 […]

Final Thesis: A Quality Metric of QDA-Derived Theories Using Object-Oriented Modeling
Abstract: Qualitative data analysis is widely accepted as valid approach for inductively developing theories. The in-depth analysis of individual experience often results in novel findings, potentially explaining less common phenomena. However, to achieve valuable results, the discovery must be compliant to various implications and prescribed processes. Grounded theory is a qualitative methodology constituted by very […]Abstract: Qualitative data analysis is widely accepted as valid approach for inductively developing theories.

Final Thesis: A Storage Solution for the WOM
Abstract: Most wikis store their pages (articles) as text blobs in an SQL database. A formal parser for MediaWiki’s markup format which drives Wikipedia and many other wiki instances has been developed by the SWEBLE project. This parser produces a structured document as Wiki Object Model (WOM) which unlocks the information stored in each article […]
