already reported. Hence, many reports end up referring to the same issue, which effectively makes the bug-report triaging process time consuming and error prone. Many researchers have approached the bug-deduplication problem using off-the-shelf information-retrieval tools. In this thesis, we extend the

Android, Eclipse, Mozilla, and OpenOffice Software Systems. Based on this experience, we conclude that researchers should not ignore the context of the software engineering domain for deduplication.

Many software engineering problems have traditionally been approached by applying techniques based on static analysis and fixed sets of rules. I created two novel techniques to tackle three software engineering problems: typo location, fix suggestion, and crash report bucket creation. However

) software crash reports. In all cases, performance (in terms of F1-score) matched or beat commonly used rule-based techniques. The TF-IDF-driven approach can adapt automatically to patterns in crash reports as they evolve. Additionally, several side benefits arose from using statistical techniques.Some

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 it

the build; clustering crash reports in a scalable and time-efficient manner; and detecting and correcting syntax errors in code written by novices. This thesis empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of these tools on real world software repositories. I conclude by suggesting ways of further
