Dissertation: Corporate Open Source Governance of Software Supply Chains (Dr. Nikolay Harutyunyan)
Abstract: Today most software products incorporate free/libre and open source software (FLOSS) components. FLOSS components are used in development infrastructures, generic and non-differentiating features and functionalities, web browsers, databases, and operating systems. Some software products are built on top of FLOSS frameworks. Open source software usage often ensures lower cost, higher quality, and quick availability, […]Abstract: Today most software products incorporate free/libre and open source software (FLOSS) components.

Final Thesis: A Model of Code Review Practices – A Qualitative Multiple Case Study on Code Review in Open Source
Abstract: Code review is nowadays viewed as a crucial part of every software project. Benefits, efficiency and effectivity are therefore often the center of attention when looking at these processes. Beside this, the question arises how in a setting like open source software development code review is even formally defined and expected to be done. This […]

Final Thesis: Exploratory Data Analysis of Code Review Data
Abstract: The code review process is well established and an essential part during the development of open source software. To establish code reviews in open source projects, the process of code review is often supported and monitored by additional review tools like Gerrit. This thesis analyzed review data from Gerrit for some open source projects (i.e. […]

Final Thesis: A Comparison Study of Open Source License Crawler
Abstract: In order to include open source software in a project, a software developer must abide to the license the software is published under. However, there are no clear guidelines for license placement in open source projects. As a result, the location of the relevant licensing text can vary for each project, making the license identification […]

Final Thesis: Crawling Code Review Data From Phabricator
Abstract: Modern code review is typically supported by software tools. Researchers use data tracked by these tools to study code review practices. A popular tool in open-source and closed-source projects is Phabricator. However, there is no tool to crawl all the available code review data from Phabricator hosts. In this thesis, we develop a Python crawler […]
