There is a wealth of software development artifacts such as source code, issue reports, and revision histories, contained within publicly-accessible and privately-accessible repositories. Mining this data presents myriad opportunities that may benefit future software development efforts; however...

Examines the concept of "keeping it simple" with respect to software engineering. It’s funny how keeping it simple in software development can often mean revising and refactoring an existing system until it is elegant enough to afford adaptation and change. Simplicity and elegance are the goals...

Inefficient mobile software kills battery life. Yet, developers lack the tools necessary to detect and solve energy bugs in software. In addition, developers are usually tasked with the creation of software features and triaging existing bugs. This means that most developers do not have the time...

Posnett, D., Hindle, Abram, Devanbu, P.
There is a perception that when new features are added to a system that those added and modified parts of the source-code are more fault prone. Many have argued that new code and new features are defect prone due to immaturity, lack of testing, as well unstable requirements. Unfortunately most...

Software libraries often provide documentation to describe the Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) they offer. Such API documentation helps potential users understand how to use the library. Studies have shown that having code examples is one of the key criteria of good software...

Software libraries provide a set of reusable functionality, which helps developers write code in a systematic and timely manner. However, with the plethora of similar software libraries available in the market, selecting the appropriate one to use is often not a trivial task. Choosing libraries...

Simulation is a powerful tool, critical to effective construction project management. They can provide decision support for different aspects of a construction project, but they have not been adopted widely in the construction industry as they are difficult to use. This thesis has developed...

A successful project accomplishment is a planned and systematic approach towards fulfilling all the requirements that do not exceed the estimated cost and scheduled deadline. This can be accomplished by estimating the size of a software system that will provide the precision of the project’s...

Pang, C., Hindle, Abram, Adams, B., Hassan, A.E.
Traditionally, programmers received a range of training on programming languages and methodologies, but they rarely receive training on software energy consumption. Yet, the popularity of mobile devices and cloud computing requires increased awareness of software energy consumption. On mobile...
