Abstract: The main reasons for software project failure are the lack of user involvement, incomplete requirements, unrealistic expectations, and poor quality of requirements specification. A requirements template is a blueprint for the syntactic structure of individual requirements. The applic...

Abstract: Microservice-based software architectures play an essential role in building sizeable scalable cloud systems. The main advantage of microservices compared to the traditional software monoliths is the independent development, deployment, and scaling of the individual microservices, which a...

Abstract: Software licenses play a critical role when developing applications containing open source dependencies. To avoid legal risks, a proper management of these dependencies is necessary and with an increasing number of third-party dependencies in commercial products, license compliance become...

Abstract: In today's software development, Free / Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) is becoming more and more common used. The management of complex dependencies between the open source components used is an essential part of this. Without such management, license compliance will be impossible...

Abstract: Governments have recognized that the publication of open data is of great economic and social value. Collecting and using this data is challenging because it is not always available in an easy to process format. Minimizing these challenges is the task of the JValue Open Data Service (ODS)...

Abstract: The JValue Open Data Service (ODS) is an open source application, founded and developed by the professorship of Open Source Software of the Friedrich Alexander Universität Erlangen Nürnberg (FAU). The application aims to become the go-to place for developers and data scientists around th...

Abstract: In a world of “Big Data” and data transparency “open data” might not be considered as an unknown term anymore. As the name suggests, it describes data, that is commonly available and free to use for everyone. The vision of the software “JValue Open Data Service (ODS)” is to provide a soli...

Abstract: Nowadays a variety of systems generate and handle more and more data. This data is often presented in different formats and has to be retrieved from various locations. The Open Data Service (ODS) presents a system to conquer those tasks. The ODS allows the definition of data manipulation ...

Abstract: Poor requirements management is one of the primary reasons for project failure. Managing and tracing of requirements involve additional effort for the developers. The tracing of requirements involves the creation of links between requirements and source code files. These links are als...

Abstract:  Inner Source is a software development approach that uses open source practices within an organization. The Collaboration Management Suite (CMSuite) developed by the Open Source Research Group at the Friedrich-Alexander Unversity Erlangen-Nürnberg supports the analysis and visualizat...
