NGOs can do this at low cost, on a large scale, and without an Internet connection. More people in the developing world have access to their cell phones than to the Internet, making cell phones an important information tool. Created to help NGOs working in developing countries, FrontlineSMS enables users to send out and collect messages to and from groups of people, using only a laptop with a cell phone plugged in. Organisations can use this software not only to get in touch with people in need in places without Internet access, but also to take surveys, hold competitions, coordinate with other staff members, and run campaigns.},

We argue that while rightly stressing human agency they also create a false dichotomy between agential and environmental factors in the explanation. Felin and Foss create further confusion by hinting - without adequate clarification - at an untenable notion of human agency as an uncaused cause.

	abstract = {The increasing popularity and use of Open Source Software (OSS) has led to significant interest from research communities and enterprise practitioners, notably in the small business sector where this type of software offers particular benefits given the financial and human capital constraints faced. However, there has been little focus on developing valid frameworks that enable critical evaluation and common understanding of factors influencing OSS adoption. This paper seeks to address this shortcoming by presenting a theory-grounded framework for exploring these factors and explaining their influence on OSS adoption, with the context of study being small- to medium-sized Information Technology (IT) businesses in the U.K. The framework has implications for this type of business - and, we will suggest, more widely - as a frame of reference for understanding, and as tool for evaluating benefits and challenges in, OSS adoption. It also offers researchers a structured way of investigating adoption issues and a base from which to develop models of OSS adoption. The study reported in this paper used the Decomposed Theory of Planned Behaviour (DTPB) as a basis for the research propositions, with the aim of: (i) developing a framework of empirical factors that influence OSS adoption; and (ii) appraising it through case study evaluation with 10 U.K. Small- to medium-sized enterprises in the IT sector. The demonstration of the capabilities of the framework suggests that it is able to provide a reliable explanation of the complex and subjective factors that influence attitudes, subjective norms and control over the use of OSS. The paper further argues that the DTPB proved useful in this research area and that it can provide a variety of situation-specific insights related to factors that influence the adoption of OSS.

This paper proposes the adoption of relevant Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) practices in order to improve software development projects in industry. Many FLOSS projects have proven to be very successful, producing high quality products with steady and frequent releases. This study aims to identify FLOSS practices that can be adapted for the corporate environment. To achieve this goal, a framework to compare FLOSS and industrial development methodologies was created. Three successful FLOSS projects were selected as study targets (the Linux Kernel, the FreeBSD operating system, and the JBoss application server), as well as two projects from Ericsson, a large telecommunications company. Based on an analysis of these projects, FLOSS best practices were tailored to fit industrial development environments. The final results consisted of a set of key adoption opportunities that aimed to improve software quality and overall development productivity by importing best practices from the FLOSS environment. The adoption opportunities were then validated at three large corporations. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Findings indicate that Venezuela's FLOSS migration process fuses the agendas of social inclusion, sovereignty, and freedom that the government is pursuing with the availability of a "Free Libre" technology. The present project specifically contributes to the literature that examines information and communication technology policies and their impact on developing countries. In addition, the theoretical expansion of Gallivan's framework can apply to other governmental technological adoptions where ideology and politics play critical roles. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Since software development is a creative task, the motivation of open source programmers can be compared to individuals in creative industries (Caves 2002). This paper summarizes the important trends in the research on motivation in open source and identifies variables that should be included in future research. Specifically, the current literature favors a taxonomy that considers two components of motivation--intrinsic (e.g., fun, flow, learning, community) and extrinsic (e.g., financial rewards, improving future job prospects, signaling quality). I make a case for incorporating both elements in developing an integrative theory about developer motivation. Three elements are identified as being unique to FLOSS development-diversity of project structures, co-existence of companies and communities and co-existence of creative and commercial elements. The important empirical evidence on FLOSS developer motivation is presented and analyzed. Four factors are identified as important mitigating and moderating factors in the conversation surrounding developer motivation- financial incentives, nature of task, group size and group structure. The role of these factors on developer motivation is discussed.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Because of the General Public License's dependence on copyright law, the deployment of FLOSS allows compliance with the Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPs) agreement, while at the same time facilitating the development of a local software 'community'. Linux has propelled the development of computer science and engineering in the poorer nations.

One could argue that Free Software Foundation is using copyright to enforce their free software licenses as aggressively as the Business Software Alliance is enforcing its clients' copyrights. We will show that the reality is more complex and that there is a significant difference: the free software community uses primarily non-legal enforcement methods and trusts on social norms. We argue that free software could be used as a tool to make copyright more accepted in the less developed world because of its positive connection with copyright and community based approach. We explain why strong copyright is also in the interest of free software developers.

	abstract = {Free and open source software (FOSS) brings many benefits to digital preservation; however it is not free. If the context in which free and open source software tools are created and employed is examined, it becomes clear that: the sustainability of any software (FOSS, custom or commercial) to ensure the preservation of the digital heritage will depend on careful assessment of, and provision for, the costs (implicit and explicit) entailed in the production and continued employment of these tools. The purpose of this paper is to focus on FOSS and archiving of the digital heritage. Portico, a not-for-profit digital preservation service, explores the costs of FOSS based on its experiences as a working archive with an extremely long time horizon. There are considerable benefits to FOSS, including its openness and the broad-based testing of it in real-world situations. FOSS tools can provide considerable cost savings over proprietary tools. However, FOSS is neither free to use, nor to create, nor to maintain. Digital preservation organizations must inventory not only the FOSS tools in the preservation arsenal, but the network of sustaining tools (FOSS and otherwise), documentation, and tribal knowledge that make these tools effectively usable. The risks to sustainability of this network of resources must be assessed, and determine what it will cost to keep them viable. Strategies will have to be considered and implemented for providing the means to sustain these resources. An engaged community of use is the best guarantor of the vitality of any FOSS tool. As that community wanes, it becomes even more essential to capture the significant properties and domain knowledge about that tool. Creators of new software in the digital preservation space have a particular obligation to provide and maintain information about the significant properties of that software. The paper shows how Portico brings its practical experiences integrating multiple FOSS tools to bear on an analysis of the costs to creating and maintaining these tools over the long-term.},

This article seeks to bridge this gap through an extensive survey that evaluates 127 technical studies published between 2014 and 2023, structured around the Vulnerability-Patch lifecycle. We begin by delineating the six critical events that constitute the Vulnerability-Patch lifecycle, leading to an in-depth exploration of the Vulnerability-Patch ecosystem. We then systematically review the databases commonly used in VD and SPD, and analyze their characteristics. Subsequently, we examine existing VD methods, focusing on traditional and deep learning based approaches. Additionally, we organize current security patch identification methods by kernel type and discuss techniques for detecting the presence of security patches. Based on our comprehensive review, we identify open research questions and propose future research directions that merit further exploration.},

While these initiatives hold significant promise, they frequently encounter hurdles like poor productivity, leading to premature demise. This study explores activities that contribute to the long-term well-being of public-sector FOSS ecosystems, focusing on public-sector entities as orchestrators and keystone players. A qualitative multi-case study of three ecosystems was conducted, with data collected through interviews, participant observation, and analysis of online discussion forums. The study presents a model for health-sustaining activities in public-sector FOSS ecosystems. Orchestrators and keystone players are found to engage in health-sustaining activities through rulemaking, role creation, and tool provision, hinting at the explanatory potential of Activity Theory. Furthermore, the study identifies key challenges in orchestrating public sector FOSS ecosystems, such as institutional misalignment and conflicting policy frameworks, highlighting these as critical areas for future research.},

	abstract = {We study the development of two open source software (OSS) web frameworks to understand how OSS communities shape software novelty and complexity in the absence of strong organizational hierarchies. We examine how projects engage in distinct "discursive modulation practices" to imprint the community's shared core doctrines and design principles onto the software thereby shaping its novelty and complexity. We borrow the concept of modulation from audio synthesis to explain how a preexisting signal-in our case, the ongoing community discourse-is modulated to produce varying sounds-in our case, the novelty and complexity of the software. The concept of modulation offers a lens to understand how emergent, community-wide development activities are influenced by filtering discursive positions and mixing those positions, thereby shaping the artifact's novelty and complexity. Our research shows that the modulation of novelty exhibits a range from "proximal" to "distal" searches for new features, while the modulation of complexity varies between "integration" and "deprecation." By drawing on these concepts, we formulate a theory that explains how modulation results in alternative OSS community approaches to shaping software novelty and complexity and how this process reflects and is reflected in the resulting software artifact.},

	abstract = {This paper examines whether open-source software (OSS) provides unique advantages in the entrepreneurial crowdfunding context. The economic model for new ventures with business plans centered on OSS is often counterintuitive to early-stage investors. On the one hand, the non-restrictive OSS approach reduces the barriers to widespread product adoption and collaboration; on the other, OSS is essentially a public good, creating a scenario where anyone can appropriate value from the product without compensating its creators. As such, an OSS approach can dissuade investors primarily concerned with appropriating value for themselves, making it difficult for early-stage OSS ventures to attract investors. However, the rapid rise of crowdfunding has created a communally minded investor base that might instead find OSS projects enticing. We theorize that the attributes of OSS projects align with the communal expectations of crowdfunding investors and thus create supportive environments for OSS-based ventures. We illustrate this alignment through the community-based resource mobilization framework and suggest that the OSS approach yields greater investor trust, leading to superior financing outcomes. Our mixed methods approach blends archival analyses of Kickstarter data with a constructive replication through a randomized experiment, providing consistent support that an OSS approach can be advantageous in the crowdfunding context.Plain English SummaryCan rewards-based crowdfunding open new doors to finance open-source software (OSS) projects? Our research suggests that crowdfunding backers are more likely to support OSS projects because they are perceived as more trustworthy. While the economic principles of OSS can be counterintuitive, OSS promotes widespread product adoption and collaboration. This allows anyone to benefit from OSS. Our research builds on the notion that crowdfunding, much like OSS, is a communal endeavor. We leverage data from the rewards-based crowdfunding platform Kickstarter.com and a controlled experiment, finding a connection between projects that espouse the OSS approach and crowdfunding success. The culmination of the two studies advances knowledge of the unique preferences of crowdfunding backers and suggests that the crowdfunding context is fertile ground to bring new insights into OSS-focused start-ups.},

	abstract = {Assessing User eXperience (UX) maturity is mandatory in the free and open-source software (FOSS) community to avoid wasting resources on projects that may fall short of expectations. Best practices suggest employing UX Capability Maturity Models (UXCMMs), which often specify an evolutionary plateau toward developing a UX-matured system and quantify organizational UX maturity into maturity levels ranging from no or ad hoc improvement to integrated continuous improvement. Numerous generically developed UXCMMs exist. However, none is created for the FOSS community, and less information is available to support their perfect match. Thus, raise suspicions if they have proper UX maturity influencing factors (UXMIFs) for the FOSS community or measure the right thing. The FOSS community differs from traditional software-developing communities and may have different dynamics and UXMIFs, necessitating unique and new methodologies for their discovery. This study, therefore, aims to identify the FOSS community\’s UXMIFs and evaluate the community\’s knowledge of UX maturity-related concepts. Its findings may help future researchers, practitioners, and other FOSS developers to develop UXCMMs exclusive to the FOSS community. The study\’s design is both qualitative and quantitative. It adopted a systematic literature review, interviews, fuzzy Delphi Method, and thematic analysis to collect and analyze data and present the findings. The study\’s sample included sixty-two active FOSS projects, fifteen FOSS stakeholders, and twelve UX experts. The outcome shows that 84\% of UX experts agreed on the thirty-six FOSS\’s UXMIFs with threshold d\ =\ 0.143 and crisp values greater than \α-cut = 0.5. User feedback and adopted technologies were ranked first, while learnability and use speed were ranked last. Similarly, FOSS stakeholders have shown a shared understanding of UX maturity, connected concepts, and impacting factors.},

However, the security communities realize some limitations when they put most existing proposals into practice. The challenges are mainly concerned with (i) fine-grained unknown attack detection and (ii) ever-changing legitimate traffic adaptation. To tackle these problem, we present three key design norms. The core idea is to construct a model to split the data distribution hyperplane and leverage the concept of isolation, as well as advance the incremental model update. We utilize the isolation tree as the backbone to design our model, named FOSS, to echo back three norms. By analyzing the popular dataset of network intrusion traces, we show that FOSS significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods. Further, we perform an initial deployment of FOSS by working with the Internet Service Provider (ISP) to detect distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. With real-world tests and manual analysis, we demonstrate the effectiveness of FOSS to identify previously-unseen attacks in a fine-grained manner.},

The path analysis and bootstrap samples revealed that customers who exhibit a high innate innovativeness and feel that they belong in the online community show a greater motivation towards platform exploration and participation in co-creation. Moreover, the effect of this synergic interaction on their co-creation participation was partially mediated by the normative dimension of their intrinsic motivation, while the hedonic dimension was not a strong predictor of co-creation contributions. This study fills the voids in the existing literature by showcasing the relevance of personal characteristics, beyond individual motivation, in co-creation behavior.},

The study aims to assist a community of OSS developers in quantifying the product\’s reliability. This research proposes reliability growth models for OSS by incorporating dynamicity in the debugging process. For this, stochastic differential equation-based analytical models are developed to represent the instantaneous rate of error generation. The fault introduction rate is modeled using exponential and Erlang distribution functions. The empirical applications of the proposed methodology are verified using the real-life failure data of the Open Source Software projects, GNU Network Object Model Environment, and Eclipse. A soft computing technique, Genetic Algorithm, is applied to estimate model parameters. Cross-validation is also performed to examine the forecasting efficacy of the model. The predictive power of the developed models is compared with various benchmark studies. The data analysis is conducted using the R statistical computing software. The results demonstrate the proposed models\’ efficacy in parameter estimation and predictive performance. In addition, the optimal release time policy based on the proposed mathematical models is presented by formulating the optimization model that intends to minimize the total cost of software development under reliability constraints. The numerical illustration and sensitivity analysis exhibit the proposed problem's practical significance. The findings of the numerical analysis exemplify the proposed study's capability of decision-making under uncertainty.},

	abstract = {In recent years, open-source software (OSS) has attracted increasing attention due to its easy accessibility via cloud repositories, voluntary community, no vendor lock-in, and low total cost of ownership. In turn, specifying and evaluating OSS quality has become a significant challenge for OSS adoption in organizations that are inclined to use them. Although many OSS quality models have been proposed in the literature, the dynamic and diverse nature of OSS has caused these models to be heterogeneous in terms of structure and content. This has adversely affected the standardization of evaluations and led to the evaluation results obtained from different OSS quality models for the same purpose being incomparable and sometimes unreliable. Therefore, in this study, a meta-model for OSS quality (OSS-QMM), which employs a unified structure from existing quality models and enables the derivation of homogeneous models, has been proposed. For this purpose, a systematic and laborious effort has been spent via a step-based meta-model creation process including review-and-revise iterations. In order to validate the OSS-QMM, case study and expert opinion methods have been applied to answer three research questions (RQs) targeted to investigate practical applicability, results comparability, and effectiveness of using the meta-model. Multiple and embedded case study designs have been employed for evaluating three real ERP systems, and 20 subject matter experts have been interviewed during the validation process. The results of multi-faceted empirical studies have indicated that the OSS-QMM has addressed solving problems in OSS quality evaluation and its adoption with high degrees of confidence.},

	abstract = {There has been considerable discussion on the possible impacts of open source software development practices, especially in regard to the quality of the resulting software product. Recent studies have shown that analyzing data from source code repositories is an efficient way to gather information about project characteristics and programmers, showing that OSS projects are very heterogeneous in their team structures and software processes. However, one problem is that the resulting process metrics measuring attributes of the development process and of the development environment do not give any hints about the quality, complexity, or structure of the resulting software. Therefore, we expanded the analysis by calculating several product metrics, most of them specifically tailored to object-oriented software. We then analyzed the relationship between these product metrics and process metrics derived from a CVS repository. The aim was to establish whether different variants of open source development processes have a significant impact on the resulting software products. In particular we analyzed the impact on quality and design associated with the numbers of contributors and the amount of their work, using the GINI coefficient as a measure of inequality within the developer group.},

However (1) the adoption of BI tools remains relatively low (2) the acquisition costs of proprietary BI tools are relatively high and (3) the level of satisfaction with these BI tools remain low. Given the potential of open source BI (OSBI) tools, there is a need for analyzing barriers that prevent organizations from adopting OSBI. Drawing a systematic review and a Qualitative Survey of BI Experts, this study proposes a framework that categorizes and structures 23 barriers to OSBI adoption by organizations including 4 that were identified by BI Experts but not explicitly found in the literature.

In recent years, this phenomenon has increasingly manifested in virtual collaborative spaces such as open‐source software communities because of the advancement in the use of online technologies and the heightened need for distance work. However, it is still unclear which underlying mechanisms foster collaboration in these spaces. By using the Linux kernel open‐source software community as a case study, we analyze data from the linux‐pci@vger.kernel.org mailing list to model the influence of proximity on the likelihood of collaboration between individuals. Our dataset is composed of 10,513 message replies to the PCI mailing list posted by its 654 active members in the years 2013 to 2015. Our results show that geographical proximity does not have a direct impact on collaboration, while organizational features defined by institutional and organizational proximity do significantly affect collaboration. Cognitive and social proximity also significantly, and positively, affects collaboration, but these relationships show an inverted u‐shaped form. Our results confirm the need to develop specific theorizing about virtual spaces, as they present unique features when compared to traditional physical environments.},

In the formative period, entrepreneurs were interested in the software's strategic direction in the market, academics and SMEs in software functionality and large firms and hobbyists in software testing. Each group retained its primary interest in the maturing period with academics and SMEs separating into server- and client-side usability. The analysis shed light on how the different stakeholder groups overcame tensions amongst themselves and took specific actions to sustain the project.Originality/valueThe authors extend stakeholder theory by reconceptualizing the focal organization and its stakeholders for OSS projects. To date, OSS research has primarily focused on examining one project relative to its marketplace. Using stakeholder theory, we identified stakeholder groups within a single OSS project to demonstrate their distinct interests and how these interests influence their value creation activities over time.

Relationships of the change in cognitive complexity with the change in the number of reported bugs, time taken to fix the bugs, and contributions from new developers are examined and are all found to be statistically significant. In addition, several control variables, such as software size, age, development status, and programmer skills are included in the analyses. The results have strong implications for OSS project administrators; they must continually measure software complexity and be actively involved in managing it in order to have successful and sustainable OSS products.

However, does a larger commons automatically beget success or does the phenomenon fall prey to the tragedy of the commons? This research forwards and empirically investigates the curvilinear relationship between developers and OSS project quality and a project's download volume. Using segmented regression on over 12,000 SourceForge OSS projects, findings suggest an inflection point in the number of contributing developers on download volume – suggesting increasing and diminishing returns to scale from adding developers to OSS projects. Findings support the economic principle of the tragedy of the commons, a concept where an over-allocated (large number) of developers, even in an open-source environment, can lead to resource mismanagement and reduce the benefit of a public good, i.e. the OSS project.},

	abstract = {ContextIn the last two decades, open-source software (OSS) has gained increasing attention due to its voluntary supporters, growing community, and ease of accessibility in cloud repositories. Standardization in OSS quality is of vital importance as a communication vehicle for stakeholders in identifying and selecting high-quality products. Thus, meta-models help to define a standardized language and enable to propose quality models that can be used to perform comparable measurements.ObjectiveConsidering the lack of a comprehensive meta-model of OSS quality in\&\#xa0;the literature, there appears a need to see a more complete picture of OSS quality and to represent its concepts more formally. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to develop a solid base for a comprehensive meta-model of OSS quality to create a common understanding among stakeholders.MethodA systematic way has been followed toward developing a common structure, defining a consistent terminology and, finally, providing a meta-model of OSS quality. In this context, (1) the common structure of the quality models for OSS has been investigated, (2) the terms of the general-purpose meta-models of software quality have been analyzed based on the international standards, and (3) the terms of the quality models for OSS have been mapped with the elements of these meta-models.ResultsAn initial meta-model of OSS quality, which employs a unified structure from the OSS quality models and eliminates the inconsistencies determined in the general-purpose meta-models of software quality, has been proposed and an implementation of this meta-model has been demonstrated.ConclusionThis initial meta-model of OSS quality with a standard terminology can be taken as a guide by researchers who will propose or revise their OSS quality models. It will allow developing multiple OSS quality models with homogenous structure and terms, and also enable comparing the evaluation results obtained by these models.},

The model is extracted to support source code reusing and revising as the two primary targets of OSS through a systematic review of related documents.Design/methodology/approachConducting a systematic review, all the software reusing criteria are identified and introduced to the web of data by an ontology for OSS (O4OSS). The software semantic model introduced in this paper explores OSS through triple expressions in which the O4OSS properties are predicates.FindingsThis model improves the quality of web data by describing software in a structured machine–human readable profile, which is linked to the related data that was previously published on the web. Evaluating the OSS semantic model is accomplished through comparing it with previous approaches, comparing the software structured metadata with profile index of software in some well-known repositories, calculating the software retrieval rank and surveying domain experts.Originality/valueConsidering context-specific information and authority levels, the proposed software model would be applicable to any open and close software. Using this model to publish software provides an infrastructure of connected meaningful data and helps developers overcome some specific challenges. By navigating software data, many questions which can be answered only through reading multiple documents can be automatically responded on the web of data.},

	abstract = {PurposeIn times of open and distributed innovation, many innovation activities that are important for firms' products and services take place beyond the boundaries of the firm and thus beyond firms' direct control. A prime example for this phenomenon is open source software (OSS) development, where multiple actors contribute to a public good, which is also integrated into company-owned software products. Despite the importance of aligning community work on the public good with own in-house development efforts, firms have limited options to directly control the OSS project or the project's outcome. This research reflects on resource deployment control, a control mode in which firms assign own developers to work for an OSS project to influence the OSS project, and tests hypotheses on individual developer levels.Design/methodology/approachThis research tests the effect of perceived resource deployment control on opinion leadership by analyzing employed Linux kernel developers.FindingsThe findings show that developers who perceive being assigned to an OSS project to enact control also exhibit opinion leadership. This research also investigates boundary conditions such as the OSS business model a firm operates and the reputation developers assign to the developers' employer.Originality/valueThis research is the first that is devoted to resource deployment control, and the research closes with a discussion of implications for control theory and the management of innovation beyond firm boundaries.},

	abstract = {Purpose To better understand the success of an open source software (OSS) project, this study aims to examine the role of social dependency networks (i.e. social and technical dependencies) in online communities.Design/methodology/approach This study focuses on dependencies using three network metrics – degree centrality, betweenness centrality and closeness centrality – in developer and module networks. A\&\#xa0;longitudinal analysis from the projects hosted at Sourceforge.net is conducted to examine the effects of social and technical networks on the success of OSS projects. To address our research questions, we have constructed research models to investigate the social network effects in developer networks, the technical network effects in module networks, and the social-technical network effects in both types of networks.Findings The results reveal nonlinear relationships between degree centrality in both social and technical networks and OSS success, highlighting the importance of a moderate level of degree centrality in team structure and software architecture. Meanwhile, a moderate level of betweenness centrality and a lower level of closeness centrality between developers lead to a higher chance of OSS project success.Originality/value This study is the first attempt to consider the network metrics in both module networks of the technical sub-system and developer networks of the social sub-system to better understand their influences on project success.},

This study also investigates the views, satisfaction level and challenges of librarians in the adoption and use of IR software.Design/methodology/approach\>A survey was conducted to collect data from the Library Information Science (LIS) professionals working in the university libraries of Islamabad. Data were collected from all library professionals of the Islamabad university libraries by using a structured questionnaire. Out of the total 104 LIS professionals, 84 participated in the study with a response ratio of 80.76\%.Findings\>The findings disclose that out of 23 universities recognized by Higher Education Commission (HEC) in Islamabad, 17 (public and private) have developed IRs. Currently, university libraries that have fully implemented the IRs are less as compared with those universities that have partially implemented IR software. However, a good number of university libraries are in the process to develop IRs. Free and open-source software is being used mostly in libraries as compared with in-house developed, locally developed or commercial software. The opinion of librarians about using IR software expressed a positive attitude of librarians. Some of the major challenges encountered by the librarians in using open-source IR software include selection of suitable software and materials for digitization, lack of cooperation from the parent organization, inadequate training opportunities and lack of skilled staff.Research limitations/implications\>This study is geographically limited to the university libraries in Islamabad.Practical implications\>This study will encourage the Pakistani LIS professionals to use open-source software for the development of IRs in their libraries.Originality/value\>This study concludes that the development of IRs in university libraries is a need of the hour. Although the launching of IRs requires certain skills and competencies, Pakistani librarians can overcome these challenges by mastering the ICT skills.},

This paper analyzes the governance of these organizations from the perspective of their structure and control, considering the development trajectory of three community-based free software projects in Brazil. Results show that the constant need to produce modern technologies gives rise to external pressures that promote change - albeit temporary - in the governance of these projects, making them resemble a cathedral more than a bazaar. Governance does not follow a cycle of sequential improvement; it changes depending on the external organizational actors present, such as sponsors. This suggests the need for strategic and flexible governance to deal with the acquisition and allocation of organizational resources. Governance of the projects described here varies along a spectrum of (in)formality that allows both production models - cathedral or bazaar - to exist in the same organization at different periods.},

	abstract = {The success of open source software (OSS) projects depends on sustained contributions by developers who often display a wide variety of contribution patterns. Project leaders and stakeholders would strongly prefer that developers not only maintain but preferably increase their contributions over time as they gain experience. Corporations increasingly complement OSS developer motivations (such as fit in terms of shared values with the project community) by paying them to sustain contributions. However, practitioners argue whether payment helps or hurts projects because monetary compensation may dampen developer motivation in the long run, making it difficult for project leaders to understand what to expect from developers over time. Using Herzberg\’s motivation-hygiene framework, we explore how developers\’ perceptions of value fit with the project and being paid interact to determine the level of code contribution and its rate of change over time (i.e., growth). Using a survey of 564 developers across 431 projects on GitHub, we build a three-level growth model explaining the code contribution and its growth over a six-month period. We find that value fit with the project positively influences both the level and growth of code contribution. However, there are notable differences among paid and unpaid developers in the impact of value fit on their level and growth in code contributions over time. The implications of our work will be of interest to researchers, practitioners, and organizations investing in open source projects.},

	abstract = {Despite the fact that OSS contributors tend to eschew traditional organizational hierarchies, researchers have found that, in many cases, OSS contributors make tightly coupled system designs and successfully coordinate highly interdependent tasks. Although researchers have explained how OSS contributors make tightly coupled code contributions, we do not know the characteristics of individuals who make such contributions. While previous studies have considered OSS projects as single, independent containers, I note that OSS projects do not constitute independent or standalone entities but reuse and, thus, depend one another. This reuse creates complex networks of interdependencies called \“software ecosystems\”. In this paper, I analyze OSS contributors who have made tightly coupled code contributions using two lenses: the core-periphery lens and the habitual-episodic lens. Based on investigating three volunteer-driven OSS projects, I found OSS contributors who make tightly coupled code contributions to have different code-contribution patterns. Interestingly, I found that half of such contributors made no previous code contributions to the sampled projects but episodically authored patches (or pull requests) that increased software coupling. Based on further investigation, I suggest a multiple-fluid-container view that accommodates software ecosystems in which multiple containers (multiple OSS projects) co-evolve with each container (each OSS project) readily accessible.},

This study explored various factors that may enable OSS adoption within Australian Public Sector (APS) organisations by interviewing those involved in software procurement. The findings were analysed through the lenses of technology adoption theories (i.e, Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) theory and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM)), and OSS adoption literature. Success of OSS in government agencies was found to be contingent on critical aspects such as availability of support and maintainability of OSS products, ability to meet organisational business needs in a cost effective manner, economic value associated with OSS such as maintenance and training costs, and attitude of staff toward OSS. The findings suggested that Rogers\’ relative advantage and compatibility constructs are major enablers while organisational attributes, environmental attributes, and TAM\’s attributes also had some influence on OSS adoption.},

A literature review was conducted to outline the main perceptions on this topic, as well as qualitative exploratory research, involving documentary analysis and interviews with four Brazilian participants who work in the management of projects.. The exploratory research was a preliminary contact with the investigated field to make the arguments presented more reliable. Among the reflections, it is observed that even though it is possible to distinguish community-based free software projects from traditional organizations, a crucial factor not always considered are the transformations resulting from the development of these projects. It is necessary that the studies consider the context of functioning, as well as the changes and interorganizational relationships established by the projects over time. Considering these issues, it is believed that approximations between projects and traditional organizations can occur, even if community characteristics are maintained.Alternate abstract:Este trabalho objetivou entender o que s\ão projetos de\&\#xa0;software\&\#xa0;livre comunit\ários e quais caracter\ísticas de governan\ça (estrutura e controle) que os diferenciam das organiza\ç\ões tradicionais, trazendo reflex\ões sobre esse modelo de neg\ócio.

	abstract = {Community-based free/libre open source software (FLOSS) teams with internal governance constitute an extreme example of distributed teams, prominent in software development. At the core of distributed team success lies team decision making and execution. However, in FLOSS teams, one might expect the lack of formal organizational structures to guide practices and reliance on asynchronous communication to make decision making problematic. Despite these challenges, many effective FLOSS teams exist. We lack research on how organizations make IS development decisions in general and on FLOSS decision-making models in particular. The decision-making literature on FLOSS teams has focused on the distribution of decision-making power. Therefore, it remains unclear which decision-making theories fit the FLOSS context best or whether we require novel decision-making models. We adopted a process-based perspective to analyze decision making in five community-based FLOSS teams. We identified five different decision-making processes, which indicates that FLOSS teams use multiple processes when making decisions. Decision-making behaviors remained stable across projects even though they required different types of knowledge. We help fill the literature gap about which FLOSS decision mechanisms one can explain using classical decision-making theories. Practically, community and company leaders can use knowledge of these decision processes to develop infrastructure that fits FLOSS decision-making processes.},

Here, we address the direction of these knowledge flows among projects throughout social networks and their impact on project success. We identify the roles of membership or contribution that individuals play within projects. We found that connections through contributors who bring their knowledge to the project, improve project success, and that connection through members, who transfer their knowledge towards other projects, enhance project success. Finally, we found that ties through shared membership and contributions hamper project success. The analysis of knowledge flows and their impact on project success imply a translation of returns from investment in social capital, where investment takes the shape of knowledge flows and the returns mean the projects' diffusion over the network.

Special emphasis is placed on the legal ramifications of this alternative approach to business software development and a long, complex lawsuit that threatens to restructure the open source philosophy. It is not surprising that commercial software companies have attacked Linux and other open source software packages. A legal attack from a company called SCO could jeopardize the future of open source software, with users and potential users of open source software fearful of previously unasserted intellectual property lawsuits. On Mar 6, 2003, the SCO Group initiated a civil lawsuit again IBM, claiming damages that were later increased to \$5 billion. The possibility that SCO could have some proprietary claim to Linux is negated by the free software community's willingness to rewrite any offending code. At this time, there is little reason for organizations using Linux and other open source programs to fear the results of the SCO litigation.},

Open-source projects can be started by anyone with the appropriate programming skills and motives. In the future, some managers may encourage the use of open-source software in their own firms. Others may attempt to build a business based on distributing and servicing open-source software. The open-source software movement also provides important management lessons regarding the most effective ways to structure and implement innovation. The lessons of open-source projects demonstrate the value of specialization through self-selection and how norms of meritocracy and peer recognition help ensure product quality.},

	abstract = {The purpose of this paper is to develop a framework that explains international activities of open source software (OSS) firms. This paper reviews relevant literature related to international operations of knowledge-intensive firms, especially in the software industry. Theoretical development is based here on a combination of the network approach, international new venture theory and inward-outward internationalization. The findings in this study suggest that the international activities of OSS firms can be divided into project activities and business activities. Project activities include inward and outward linkages, and partner identification. Business activities include domestic and partner network activities that can lead to international business as well. For scholars, the framework provides a new approach to explain many international activities of OSS firms by integrating three international business theories. In addition, it provides good starting point for further empirical examination. The framework helps managers gain a better understanding of complex circumstances embedded into the international activities of OSS firms. With that better understanding, the managers can focus their activities, which helps further to improve their firms' competitiveness engendered by the international activities in the OSS development. The framework developed in this study is believed to be the first serious attempt to provide a deeper theoretical understanding of international activities of OSS firms. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Many studies by governments and by information technology analysts suggest that OSS and open standards are intimately connected and that the inherent value of open-source adoption may be attributable in large part to the embodiment of open standards in OSS. Given the equally rapid changes in the information technology marketplace, the successful adoption of these new technologies by governments will depend on how well the strengths of proprietary software and OSS are understood and applied - especially with respect to the use of open standards to speed deployments of integrated capabilities that respond to emerging challenges. This paper evaluates the relative strengths of proprietary software and OSS as development techniques that embrace the open standards valued by governments.},

Evidence shows that OSS fails in many cases to displace dominant market leaders even in the case of user's unhappiness with the prevalent solution, while in some others OSS is adopted without a clear advantage. Using a qualitative research approach, we highlight the existence of a new context, in which the adoption of Linux-based OSS platforms by companies is not led only by traditional drivers. User communities and broader social responsibility considerations have been found to exert some degrees of pressure on the IT decision maker. Through the analysis of some significant cases we propose a framework that helps to depict under which conditions significant OSS adoption may unfold.},

Through an empirical, interpretive case study and a literature review utilising the metaphor of text in the analysis, this paper provides a refined conceptualisation of user participation in OSS development. The paper reveals that different kinds of meanings have been attached to users and to their participation. User participation is both direct and indirect in the OSS development context. Some user groups actively take part in OSS development, while others are merely represented in it. Different kinds of intermediaries representing the users are identified. The research is based on one case study on a small but active OSS project with an interest in users. Other kinds of OSS projects should be analysed. The analysis was focused on a discussion forum, but users can take part in OSS development by other means as well. Paths for future work should include the gathering of more varied empirical data. The findings indicate that users can provide feedback to the development through discussion forums in the distributed environment, but there is a need to support the users in doing so and the developers in analysing the data. The importance of different kinds of intermediaries representing the users is highlighted. The paper provides thorough empirical insights and a refined conceptualisation of user participation addressing the currently weakly empirically explored OSS development context.},

	abstract = {A growing number of governments will consider and even choose to migrate to an alternative operating system that uses Free/Open Source Software (FOSS). This research examines why governments choose to migrate and what factors affect implementation. Drawing on a comparative case study of four cities, I find that governments decide to migrate for a range of factors, but are driven more by democratic values such as independence and self-determination than by a desire to cut costs or save money. I also find that implementation is affected by a variety factors but in particular by information technology's place within a city's organizational structure. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Most requirements engineering (RE) research has been conducted in the context of structured and agile software development. Software, however, is increasingly developed in open source software (OSS) forms which have several unique characteristics. In this study, we approach OSS RE as a sociotechnical, distributed cognitive process where distributed actors "compute" requirements- i.e., transform requirements-related knowledge into forms that foster a shared understanding of what the software is going to do and how it can be implemented. Such computation takes place through social sharing of knowledge and the use of heterogeneous artifacts. To illustrate the value of this approach, we conduct a case study of a popular OSS project, Rubinius-a runtime environment for the Ruby programming language-and identify ways in which cognitive workload associated with RE becomes distributed socially, structurally, and temporally across actors and artifacts. We generalize our observations into an analytic framework of OSS RE, which delineates three stages of requirements computation: excavation, instantiation, and testing-in-the-wild. We show how the distributed, dynamic, and heterogeneous computational structure underlying OSS development builds an effective mechanism for managing requirements. Our study contributes to sorely needed theorizing of appropriate RE processes within highly distributed environments as it identifies and articulates several novel mechanisms that undergird cognitive processes associated with distributed forms of RE.},

It combines discussions from several research projects as well as previous publications to present the scope of commercial choices within open source software and their consequences. Findings – The findings show that higher levels of involvement in open source software communities poses important questions about the balance between economic, technological, and social logics as well as the benefits of being autonomous, having access to collaborative networks and minimizing risks related to free-riding. There are six levels of commercial involvement in open source communities, and each of them is characterized by a different dilemma. Originality/value – The paper sheds light on the various level of involvement of business in open source movement and emphasize that the popularized \“open innovation\” concept is only the first step in real involvement and paradigm shift.},

	abstract = {This paper presents our work towards a fully functioning platform for pervasive service engineering in an operational support services (OSS) context for an ICT service provider. The focus of the paper lies in a proof-of-concept for a novel means to develop and execute pervasive services, with simplicity and maintainability as prime drivers. The essence of this approach is the novel integration of the policy-based management (PBM) techniques and the model-driven architecture (MDA) techniques for specifying pervasive services and their behaviour, together with auto-generation of middleware implementation and policy enablement. The presence of policies provides pervasive services with the high flexibility and adaptability needed for dealing with changing environments and resource availabilities, while the introduction of MDA for defining pervasive service information models fundamentally solves the information modelling puzzle of current policy-based approaches. Additionally, MDA's middleware-neutral feature benefits the smooth evolution of pervasive services as a piece of software artefact in the face of heterogeneous devices and platforms. A preliminary case study has demonstrated the practical feasibility and benefits of this approach. The case study revolves around an ICT service called TEANU - transparent enterprise access for nomadic user. The service provides a means for nomadic users to maintain a secure access to their enterprise network in the presence of multiple access network providers with different service level guarantees.

This paper focuses on for-profit organizations that release software products under OSS licenses, and argues that variations in their endowments of intellectual property rights, namely patents and trademarks, help to determine which firms will tend to incorporate OSS into commercial products. We explain whether and under what conditions preexisting stocks of intellectual property rights can be useful complementary assets that allow firms to benefit directly or indirectly from commercializing OSS products, and test our hypotheses on a novel data set built on firms' announcements of OSS product releases in the specialized press between 1995 and 2003. We find three robust results: (a) firms with large stocks of software patents are more likely to release OSS products; (b) firms with large stocks of software trademarks are less likely to release OSS products; (c) firms with large stocks of hardware trademarks are more likely to release OSS products.

Drawing on a review of literature concerning knowledge sharing in organisations, the factors that motivate participants to share their knowledge in OSS communities, and the management of such communities, it is hypothesised that the quality of management influences the extent to which the motivations of members actually result in knowledge sharing. Design/methodology/approach – To test the hypothesis, quantitative data were collected through an online questionnaire survey of OSS web developers with the aim of gathering respondents\’ opinions concerning knowledge sharing, motivations to share knowledge and satisfaction with the management of OSS projects. Factor analysis, descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and regression analysis were used to explore the survey data. Findings – The analysis of the data reveals that the individual participant\’s satisfaction with the management of an OSS project is an important factor influencing the extent of their personal contribution to a community. Originality/value – Little attention has been devoted to understanding the impact of management in OSS communities. Focused on OSS developers specialising in web development, the findings of this paper offer an important original contribution to understanding the connections between individual members\’ satisfaction with management and their motivations to contribute to an OSS project. The findings reveal that motivations to share knowledge in online communities are influenced by the quality of management. Consequently, the findings suggest that appropriate management can enhance knowledge sharing in OSS projects and online communities, and organisations more generally.},

	abstract = {Open source software projects rely on the voluntary efforts of thousands of software developers, yet we know little about why developers choose to participate in this collective development process. This paper inductively derives a framework for understanding participation from the perspective of the individual software developer based on data from two software communities with different governance structures. In both communities, a need for software-related improvements drives initial participation. The majority of participants leave the community once their needs are met, however, a small subset remains involved. For this set of developers, motives evolve over time and participation becomes a hobby. These hobbyists are critical to the long-term viability of the software code: They take on tasks that might otherwise go undone and work to maintain the simplicity and modularity of the code. Governance structures affect this evolution of motives. Implications for firms interested in implementing hybrid strategies designed to combine the advantages of open source software development with proprietary ownership and control are discussed.

The notion of the OS business model is discussed in the light of a substantial body of theoretical literature concerning strategic management and the economics of innovation, as well as specialized literature on OS. Empirical evidence based on a survey of 146 Italian software firms shows that firms have adapted to an environment dominated by incumbent standards by combining the offering of proprietary and OS software under different licensing schemes, thus choosing a hybrid business model. The paper examines the determinants of the degree of openness toward OS and discusses the stability of hybrid models in the evolution of the industry. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to review use of open source software in the public sector in Botswana and South Africa. South Africa is Botswana's neighbor and both countries are leading economies in Africa. Design/methodology/approach - The paper draws on a survey that was carried out in information communication technology (ICT)-intensive government ministries in Botswana in May 2008. The study sought to establish availability of policy framework, level of usage of open source software, government support, motivations for implementing open source software in government, availability of skills, attitude of it managers in government toward open source software and challenges of open source software deployment in the public sector. The population of the study consisted of information technology (IT) managers who were purposively selected from ICT-intensive government ministries and interviewed. The study was extended to cover South Africa through review of literature on the same issues as those studied in Botswana. Findings - Compared with other countries in developed and developing countries including South Africa, there is limited use of open source software in the public sector in Botswana. However, IT managers in government of Botswana demonstrate a positive attitude toward open source software, and seem to have adequate understanding of its potential benefits. Comparatively, South African government provides support for harnessing open source software; awareness among top government officials is high and attitude toward open source software seems positive; skills are generally available and hardly any challenges of using open source software were identified. Research limitations/implications - This study was limited to purposively selected government ministries which are ICT-intensive in Botswana, while for South Africa, the study was based on secondary sources of data and focused on deployment of open source software in government agencies. Practical implications - Despite the increasing deployment of open source software in government across the world, the Botswanan government is yet unlikely to put in place an enabling open source software policy to harness the potential of the Software. Originality/value - Open source software deployment in government across the world is gaining momentum purportedly to enhance universal access, reduce costs associated with commercial software bridge the digital divide, grow indigenous IT skills, etc. Botswana and South Africa are the economic frontline states in Africa, and their leadership role in this matter among counterparts on the African continent is pertinent.

A key paradox of the global Internet is that it allows individual and collective decision making to co-exist with each other. Open source software (OSS) communities are a globally accelerating phenomenon. OSS refers to groups of programs that allow the free use of the software and further the code sharing to the general and corporate users of the software. The combination of private provision and public knowledge and software, and the seeming paradox of economic versus social motivations have stimulated a wide debate between researchers and policymakers. In this article, we analyze OSS communities from the viewpoint of "intrinsic motivation," knowledge creation, and collective Internet governance. We believe that the growth of global OSS has fundamental implications for business ethics and the governance of the global Internet in the twenty-first century. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

For this reason, this work aims to explore some of the effects of participation in a virtual brand community on consumer behaviour. The paper proposes the positive effects of participation in a virtual community on both consumer trust and loyalty to the product, brand or organisation around which the community is developed. In addition, it also proposes a positive effect of trust on consumer loyalty. After the validations of measurement scales, the hypotheses are contrasted through structural modelling. The data, obtained through a web survey using members of several free software virtual communities, show that participation in the activities carried out in a virtual community may foster consumer trust and loyalty to the mutual interest of the community (the free software in this case). In addition, the study also found a positive and significant effect of consumer trust on loyalty.},

	abstract = {PurposeOpen Source software companies (OSSCs) are confronted with institutional pressures from Open Source software (OSS) communities. They must find an acceptable balance between the expectations of these communities and their own business model. However, there are still few studies that try to analyse the OSSC business models. The purpose of this paper is to highlight OSSC typical business models by using rich empirical data.Design/methodology/approachThe methodology is based on a combination of quantitative analysis of a sample of 66 OSSCs and qualitative analysis of three typical situations resulting from that sample.FindingsThe quantitative study enables the authors to highlight three typical business models. The in-depth study of three typical cases enables the authors to specify these OSSC business models. The authors can distinguish four key dimensions: the relationship developed with the OSS communities, the strategic manoeuvres made, the key resources and competitive positioning.Research limitations/implicationsThe results indicate that it is possible for firms to accommodate both profit and non-profit logics using different strategic manoeuvres to position themselves with regard to the Open Source institutional environment. Such accommodation requires the development of key resources and the adoption of suitable competitive positioning.Practical implicationsThis study allows the authors to highlight two main practical contributions for OSSCs\’ directors. First, the different manoeuvres identified may help them to ensure coherence between their strategic choices and the business model chosen. Second, the results can help OSSC founders identify value creation mechanisms more clearly by analysing four key variables.Originality/valueThis paper provides new insight about OSSCs business models. It aggregates four dimensions that provide a more \“fine-grained\” analysis of business models, while other studies often emphasise one dimension (usually the regime of appropriability).},

Hierarchical configurations have been used to structure processes, overcome resistance and get things done. But is deliberate change also possible without formal structures and hierarchical influence? Design/methodology/approach This longitudinal, qualitative study investigates an open-source software (OSS) community named TYPO3. This case exhibits no formal hierarchical attributes. The study is based on mailing lists, interviews and observations. Findings The study reveals that deliberate change is indeed achievable in a non-hierarchical collaborative OSS community context. However, it presupposes the presence and active involvement of informal change agents. The paper identifies and specifies four key drivers for change agents' influence. Originality/value The findings contribute to organisational analysis by providing a deeper understanding of the importance of leadership in making deliberate change possible in non-hierarchical settings. It points to the importance of "change-by-conviction", essentially based on voluntary behaviour. This can open the door to reducing the negative side effects of deliberate change also for hierarchical organisations.},

The projects and developers co-evolve in an ecosystem. To keep healthy evolution of such OSS ecosystems, there is a need of attracting and retaining developers, particularly project leaders and core developers who have major impact on the project and the whole team. Therefore, it is important to figure out the factors that influence developers' chance to evolve into project leaders and core developers. To identify such factors, we conducted a case study on the GNOME ecosystem. First, we collected indicators reflecting developers' subjective willingness to contribute to the project and the project environment that they stay in. Second, we calculated such indicators based on the GNOME dataset. Then, we fitted logistic regression models by taking as independent variables the resulting indicators after eliminating the most collinear ones, and taking as a dependent variable the future developer role (the core developer or project leader). The results showed that part of such indicators (e.g., the total number of projects that a developer joined) of subjective willingness and project environment significantly influenced the developers' chance to evolve into core developers and project leaders. With different validation methods, our obtained model performs well on predicting developmental core developers, resulting in stable prediction performance (0.770, F-value).},

	abstract = {The aim of this study is to assess the financial reporting framework applied to open source software. Open sourcing software developments means sharing technology and resources with communities worldwide to help eliminate the digital divide, create economic opportunity, and support equal access to technology. Therefore, a methodological approach is needed to assess properly the performance and the value generation potential and to put such measure into organizational reports. International financial reporting framework is checked over conditions to allow value recognition of open sourced assets. Linux kernel development value is estimated to reflect worth of open source developments despite absence of book value due to inexistence of a single cost source. Several attempts to estimate a valuation of open source software have been performed previously. However, this study is the first to judge suitability of accounting framework to report on this value. The main finding is that open sourced assets do not fully accomplish conditions to be included in financial reports. We seek to stimulate academic and professional debate about the pursuit of valuation of a large and efficient ecosystem of software innovation, freely available to society.},

Design/methodology/approach              - Two studies were carried out. In Study 1, a content analysis classifying OSS-related questions posted during December 2005-December 2012 in Yahoo! Answers was employed to investigate the general public's information needs regarding OSS. In Study 2, an online survey was conducted with OSS answerers in Yahoo! Answers in order to examine what motivates them to share and continue to share their knowledge of OSS in social Q\&A. In total, 1,463 invitations were sent out via Yahoo! Answers' internal e-mail function to those who provided answers to OSS-related questions during September 2009-September 2012. In total, 150 usable surveys were returned and used for data analysis.              Findings              - The findings from Study 1 indicate that the general public is most interested in finding out if there is OSS that meets their software need in a certain category (51.4 percent). Other popular question categories include the general description of OSS (15.6 percent), technical issues that they have with OSS (9.8 percent), and the advantages/disadvantages of using OSS (7.0 percent). Results on OSS answerers' motivations from Study 2 support that all seven motivations identified (i.e. altruism, enjoyment, ideology, learning, reputation, reciprocity, and self-efficacy) are important, with the smallest mean value being 4.42 out of seven (i.e. reciprocity). However, only altruism, ideology, self-efficacy, and enjoyment were found to significantly influence contribution continuance intention.              Practical implications              - With social Q\&A growing in popularity, OSS communities that look for ways to draw in more users from the general public are recommended to increase their presence in social Q\&A. The findings with regard to OSS answerers' motivations can also help OSS community leaders attract and guide more members who are interested in sharing their OSS knowledge in social Q\&A.              Originality/value              - By classifying OSS-related questions that are publicly available in Yahoo! Answers, this study offers a breakdown of the general public's information needs regarding OSS. In addition, results on OSS answerers' motivations suggest that in order to sustain their member contributions in social Q\&A, OSS community leaders should pay more attention to nurturing the motivations that are intrinsic (i.e. altruism, self-efficacy, enjoyment) and integrated (i.e. ideology).},

	abstract = {The right to fork open source code is at the core of open source licensing. All open source licenses grant the right to fork their code, that is to start a new development effort using an existing code as its base. Thus, code forking represents the single greatest tool available for guaranteeing sustainability in open source software. In addition to bolstering program sustainability, code forking directly affects the governance of open source initiatives. Forking, and even the mere possibility of forking code, affects the governance and sustainability of open source initiatives on three distinct levels: software, community, and ecosystem. On the software level, the right to fork makes planned obsolescence, versioning, vendor lock-in, end-of-support issues, and similar initiatives all but impossible to implement. On the community level, forking impacts both sustainability and governance through the power it grants the community to safeguard against unfavourable actions by corporations or project leaders. On the business-ecosystem level forking can serve as a catalyst for innovation while simultaneously promoting better quality software through natural selection. Thus, forking helps keep open source initiatives relevant and presents opportunities for the development and commercialization of current and abandoned programs.},

	abstract = {The past five decades have witnessed immense coevolution of methods and tools of information technology, and their practical and experimental application within the medical and healthcare domain. Healthcare itself continues to evolve in response to change in healthcare needs, progress in the scientific foundations of treatments, and in professional and managerial organization of affordable and effective services, in which patients and their families and carers increasingly participate.  Taken together, these trends impose highly complex underlying challenges for the design, development, and sustainability of the quality of supporting information services and software infrastructure that are needed. The challenges are multidisciplinary and multiprofessional in scope, and they require deeper study and learning to inform policy and promote public awareness of the problems health services have faced in this area for many years. The repeating pattern of failure to live up to expectations of policy-driven national health IT initiatives has proved very costly and remains frustrating and unproductive for all involved.   In this article, we highlight the barriers to progress and discuss the dangers of pursuing a standardization framework devoid of empirical testing and iterative development. We give the example of the openEHR Foundation, which was established at University College London (UCL) in London, England, with members in 80 countries. The Foundation is a not-for-profit company providing open specifications and working for generic standards for electronic records, informed directly by a wide range of implementation experience. We also introduce the Opereffa open source framework, which was developed at UCL based on these specifications and which has been downloaded in some 70 countries. We argue that such an approach is now essential to support good discipline, innovation, and governance at the heart of medicine and health services, in line with the new mandate for health commissioning in the United Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS), which emphasizes patient participation, innovation, transparency, and accountability.},

	abstract = {The spread of free/libre open source software (FLOSS) represents one of the most important developments in the Information Technology (IT) industry in recent years. Within the context of a knowledge-based economy, this sort of approach appears exemplary for a growing number of industrial activities in which the amount of knowledge that has to be mastered is too large for a single agent, however powerful. Considering knowledge as a mutual resource requires a rethinking of the value chain concept, since cash flow is derived from use of the knowledge base (services, complementary products), not from the knowledge itself. In a classical industrial economics perspective, this reshaping of the value chain must be analyzed not only at the global ecosystem level (who produces what, between firms and universities, users and producers, etc.), but also at the industrial level (once the industry's role has been identified, how does it organize itself?).  In this article, we argue for a more structured and global analysis, based on the tools of industrial economics, and thus starting from the basic conditions of the computer market and of the buyers' competence in software development (the "dominant user's skill").},

OSS is a multi-faceted phenomenon including code, a licensing structure, a community, development best practices, a method of diffusion. However, the current OSS collaborative researches place too much emphasis on collaborative behaviors, but ignore the study on collaborative process. By using the social network theory to abstract collaborative network topology, this paper proposes a method for constructing social network model, which considers both the contact relationship and level of collaboration between collaborators. Based on the definition of three types of contact behavior, this paper presents an approach to measuring the contact relationship intensity. Based on introducing and improving TF-IDF (term frequency-inverse document frequency), this paper presents the methods for calculating tag weights and work similarity between collaborators. Finally, by evaluating the model using data from the OSS website www.Codeplex .com, we verify that our model outperforms conventional models in both describing and forecasting collaborative behavior.

	abstract = {Drawing from the concept of entropy in open systems theory, this article contributes to organizational theory by illuminating organizational life cycle theory and exploring open source software development communities (OSSDC) with quantitative longitudinal data. In particular, this study uses functional data analysis to uncover the development patterns of open source software projects in terms of effectiveness and activity levels. Our findings show that the life cycles of OSSDC display an inverted-U shape in terms of effectiveness level and an inverted-S shape in terms of activity level. Although our results provide some evidence of distinct states, they do not imply that such states are predetermined or irreversible. On the contrary, these numerous states are viewed here as intrinsically dynamic. These findings not only give empirical support to the organizational life cycle metaphor in the context of OSSDC, but also aid practitioners and policy-makers in assessing online communities. Taking an open systems view of organizations, this study aids in reconciling some issues in life cycle theory, such as the irreversibility and pre-determinacy of life cycle models, and adds to a young but fast growing stream of literature on open source projects. Lastly, our findings remark the importance of fostering active communities for superior effectiveness and long-term survival of the community. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Community-based natural resource management (CBNRM) is an environmental governance approach that deals with complex and interwoven ecological problems through a participatory environmental management framework. Practitioner, donor, and academic interest in this strategy is on the rise, and successful CBNRM organizations are experiencing internal and external pressures to help "transfer" their knowledge and experiences to other contexts and scales. If organized through the traditional top-down diffusion of innovation approach, many barriers to CBNRM transfer exist, beginning with organizational costs that may outweigh potential benefits. However, reframed as a more "open" and emergent process, the burdens of transfer may be reduced and benefits increased. We draw on an analogy from the Open Source Software (OSS) movement to suggest an organizational rationale for exchange and principles such as "porting," the "kernel," "copyleft," and "forking" that can guide CBNRM and for community-based organizations challenged to share their approach to conservation.

	abstract = {Usability is an important quality characteristic of software products and systems. Different approaches for introducing usability activities into SW development have not yet been evaluated with respect to open source software (OSS). This paper tests the introduction of usability activities through four empirical case studies in the OSS development context. Case studies were carried out using four OSS projects that were not commercially supported. Empirical analysis suggests that usability specialists should become members of the OSS community, but, at the same time, should keep an objective view. The usability activities had substantially more impact when specialists introduced and carried them out as fellow members of the OSS community than as usability consultants from outside the community. The importance of management commitment for usability activities is discussed in the OSS context. The challenge of adapting usability and OSS development philosophies together should be researched further. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Purpose - In this paper the authors aim to investigate the importance of factors for the adoption of free/libre open source software (FLOSS) in the public sector. They seek to evaluate how different factors impact during the initiation and implementation phases of the adoption process. Design/methodology/approach - The authors base the methodological approach on two exploratory case studies with a contrasting result logic. They build a multi-level framework grounded both on literature review, and feedback from stakeholders. They then apply the framework to two case studies to better frame the findings. They consider phases of adoption (initiation, implementation) and the levels of adoption (technological, organizational, environmental, individual). Findings - In the case studies, the authors found the importance of a strong and decision-centric management board to give the impulse for the initiation phase of the process. As perceived by the stakeholders, a strong governmental support is of paramount importance to increase the adoption at the public level, although in the case studies examined the initiation stage started from the impulse of a championing management. Both case studies passed the initiation phase successfully. Continuous employees' training, organizational objectives consensus, and business process reengineering have been found important for the implementation phase. In the case study in which these factors were not in place, the implementation phase of adoption failed. Environmental factors - although relevant for the initiation of the adoption process - are less significant during the actual implementation of the adoption process, as the contrasting result logic from the case studies shows. Research limitations/implications - The study refers to two public organizations in a specific environmental setting. No causality among factors has been inferred. Quantitative objective data have been used to determine the success of adoption, for qualitative data multiple sources have been used when possible to limit threats to validity. Practical implications - The framework can be used by stakeholders in public organizations to better frame their adoption strategies and to compare results across institutions. Lessons learnt from the case studies can be useful to drive future adoptions of FLOSS. Originality/value - The framework combines phases of adoption and levels making it possible to frame the analysis of the case studies. It has been operationalized with a set of metrics, and with a protocol for the case studies to increase replicability value.},

Also, we describe a framework that inductively manages compliance of license clauses in a free and open source software development.

	abstract = {Purpose - Through an evaluation of the information technology (IT) adoption and diffusion models and the free and/or open source policy of the South African Government, the underlying assumption is that the developmental divide between those with and those without access to technology is purely technical. This paper aims to illustrate that if Free and/or Open Source Software is to be used as a building block to bridge the "digital divide" a more social and environmental perspective, which embraces the philosophy behind the software, needs to complement the technical perspective. The human environmental model is presented as a useful alternative which, if embraced, can inform more holistic information and communication technology (ICT) policies. Design/methodology/approach - Through a review of diffusion of innovations models an alternative diffusion framework is described and applied to an interpretive open source case study in South Africa. Findings - Contemporary diffusion and innovation models are narrowly focused on IT as a purely technological linear phenomenon. This perspective also underlies many ICT policies. A more socio-technical adoption model can assist in providing a more holistic approach to ICT policy development. Originality/value - The application of a new innovation model, the human environmental model, to ICT policy provides a holistic framework in which the complexity of the innovation process can be reflected in policy. Such an approach to ICT policy formulation will assist with broadening the perspective of policy makers from IT as a technical solution to IT as part of a socio-technical solution and recognise the duality of the innovation process.},

In more recent years, FOSS is becoming an increasingly important element in strategies for development and implementation of information and communication technologies also in developing countries. Mainstream research on FOSS has catered to the underlying principles or freedom, open organizational forms, and on its economical aspects. The purpose of this paper is to shed new light on the actual consequences of FOSS, often left in the background. Design/methodology/approach - The paper examines where FOSS principles' assumptions are likely to be more evident: in contexts of developing countries, which are geographically and organizationally far from the original environment of FOSS. A mixed methodology characterizes this work: quantitative and qualitative methods bring readers' attention to unusual empirical settings and downplayed organizational processes of information technology (IT) implementation and adoption. Findings - The consequences of FOSS on IT implementation and actual use are ambivalent. It is argued that FOSS adoption does not happen spontaneously, neither by decree, and that the relevance of open technologies as public goods remains in the different role of local actual technical and organizational capabilities, and environment conditions. Originality/value - Such a focus complements existing studies on the economical relevance of FOSS, which are not the focus of this paper.},

Especially, it is important to control the amount of maintenance effort expense in the long-term phase. Then, we propose the optimization method based on the past two-dimensional Wiener processes model. Thereby, it will be helpful to assess the operation effort expenditures with network environment of edge OSS service.

	abstract = {In this study we identify a process of "entrainment" around open source software (OSS) development release cycles to capture patterns of self-organized task allocation among developers. We conducted an abductive, computationally intensive study of eight OSS projects, using relational event modeling to analyze 1,169,489 actions covering 93 major software releases. The process of entrainment that we identify involves three task allocation mechanisms: (1) developer-issue inertia, (2) developer contribution frequency, and (3) issue popularity. Our analysis demonstrates that these mechanisms and the phases of the release cycle entrain each other. Before a major release, developers engage in a concentrated mobilization phase, whereby they democratize development activity and increasingly allocate community contributions to the set of issues related to the release. After a major release, the extended cleanup phase garners a greater share of development work from recently highly active developers and dilutes the activity of these developers across a wider range of issues. Our theorizing suggests that major releases constitute important events around which OSS communities self-organize and we characterize how this occurs. Our research contributes to theorizing on organizing in OSS communities by explaining how self-organizing task allocation interacts with release cycles through the mechanism of entrainment. We also contribute to the literature on entrainment by showing how it may unfold in the context of online peer production communities such as OSS.},

In-depth analysis of the CoCs demonstrated many discrepancies in the terminology, length, enforcement, and adoption of codes of conduct. To investigate the usage of these CoCs, we investigate five women-focused OSS discussion forums. This analysis shows the value of creating/adopting a CoC and the impact CoC  can have on the participation of women. We also present the challenges in the usage and enforcement of CoCs as discussed by women of these forums.

Also, OSS projects will heavily depend the environment of internet network. This paper focuses on the irregular fluctuation of operation performance measures for OSS project management. We apply the double jump diffusion process models to the noisy cases in the operation of OSS. In particular, the maintenance effort is estimated by the stochastic differential equation model in terms of OSS project management.

Thereby, it will be helpful for the OSS developers and managers to understand the maintenance effort status of OSS from the standpoint of OSS project management.

While we can attribute identified peripheral contributions (IPC) to specific individuals and OSS projects need them to succeed, one cannot trace back anonymous peripheral contributions (APC), and they can have both positive and negative ramifications for project development. Open platforms and managers face a challenging design choice in deciding whether to allow APC and for which tasks or what type of projects. We examine the impact that the ratio between APC and IPC has on OSS project performance. Our results suggest that the OSS projects perform the best when they contain a uniform anonymity level (i.e., they contain predominantly APC or predominantly IPC). However, our results also suggest that OSS projects have lower performance when the ratio between APC and IPC nears one (i.e., they contain close to the same number of APC and IPC). Furthermore, our results suggest that these results differ depending on the type of application that a project develops.

	abstract = {The current study is a full replication (conceptual and empirical) of “Coordinating Interdependencies in Online Communities: A Study of an Open Source Software Project” Lindberg et al (2016), which addresses the question of how OSS communities address unresolved interdependencies. Following the original study, we analyze project development data, archived in the GitHub repository, for the OSS project Rubinius. The analysis explores relationships among development and developer interdependencies as well as activity and order variation. Further, we extend the original study by examining the core relationships in the original study and investigating the external generalizability of the results by replicating the analysis on three analogous OSS projects: JRuby, mruby, and RubyMotion. These offer an opportunity to evaluate the generalizability of the original study to projects of different sizes and amount of activity, yet similar otherwise to the project in the original study. Another extension is the use of an additional control variable, length of activity sequence, which proves to have substantial implications of the study’s focal relationships. We find that three out of the four projects we analyze support the findings of the original study as it pertains to four relationships in the original study: order variation and developer interdependencies, activity variation and developer interdependencies, order variation and development interdependencies, and development and developer interdependencies. We also discuss the implications of our findings, especially in cases where the replication results differ from those in the original study and offer suggestions for future research that can help advance this stream of research.},

Analyzing the relations between these characteristics and the project life-span, may help developers, investors, and contributors to control the development cycle of the software project. The paper provides an insight on the project life-span for a free open source software ecosystem. The statistical analysis of some project characteristics in GitHub is presented, and we find that the choices of programming languages, the number of files, the label format of the project, and the relevant membership expressions can impact the life-span of a project. Based on these discovered characteristics, we also propose a prediction model to estimate the project life-span in open source software ecosystems.

By the turn of the millennium, FOSS developers had created the GNU/Linux operating system and several other significant products.

FOSS is now a crucial part of the networked world, providing both software—for example web servers, desktop environments, and the FOSS-derived Android operating system that powers the majority of the world's mobile phones—and many of the programming languages in which that software is written.

In one crucial respect (the production of the so-called "kernel" of the system) this effort stalled, and only the efforts of a project initiated in 1991 by Finnish student Linus Torvalds enabled the production of a complete operating system, usually simply called Linux.},

Considering the characteristics of OSS development and management projects, operation performance measures for OSS project management will take an irregular fluctuation in the long term of operation, because several developer and many users are closely related to the maintenance of OSS. Also, OSS projects will heavily depend the environment of internet network. This paper focuses on the irregular fluctuation of operation performance measures for OSS project management. We apply the double jump diffusion process models to the noisy cases in the operation of OSS. In particular, the maintenance effort is estimated by the stochastic differential equation model in terms of OSS project management. Moreover, we propose the method of maintenance effort management based on the double jump diffusion process model considering the irregular fluctuation of performance for OSS projects. Thereby, it will be helpful for the OSS developers and managers to understand the maintenance effort status of OSS from the standpoint of OSS project management. Also, we analyze actual data to show numerical examples of the proposed models with the characteristics considering noisy and jump of OSS projects.},

In this essay, I try to identify the ethical foundations of Stallmanism. I identify three major trends in Stallman’s thinking—libertarian, utilitarian, and communitarian—and I argue that none is sufficient to justify the radical claim that distributing non-Free software is always wrong (unless we accept extremely demanding ethical standards that Stallman himself does not consistently endorse). I recommend thinking of Stallmanism as an attempt to optimize the satisfaction of a number of core values, including freedom, cooperation, and happiness, and I stress the importance of connecting the Free software movement to other political struggles against oppression.},

The first one is the idea that cyberspace is an immaterial (or informational) space, exhibiting properties that are radically distinct from the ones of the material world. The second one is the idea of deterritorialization, according to which online communities are indifferent to the geographical reality of the territory. The article explains how these commonplace assumptions pervade free software culture, tracing their history back to cybernetics and the AI Lab at the MIT, and analyzing the globalization of free software culture since the 1990s. It also criticizes these topoï that often conceal how the transformations of the digital world are intertwined with the transformations of society at large. The conclusion tackles the emergence of the maker movement (which is strongly tied to free software culture) and insists on the persistence of issues related to materiality and territory, even within digital culture.?},

Providing business strategy to benefit from volunteer developers for the purpose of contributing to existing projects, as well as initiating new OSS projects is of utmost significance for companies in that industry. Therefore, it is important to figure out how groups of volunteer developers are formed as new developers join existing projects, and it is even more important to investigate what causes these developers to initiate new projects. The authors investigate network structure as a causal factor for both new project initiation within a group (representing group innovation) as well as new developers joining existing projects within a group (representing group growth). The authors develop four hypotheses.
1. Intra-group coupling has a positive impact on group growth, 2. Inter-group coupling has a positive impact on group innovation, 3. Inter-group structural hole has a positive impact on group innovation, 4. There is a trade-off between the effects of inter-group structural hole and inter-group coupling on group innovation.
The authors test these four hypotheses using data from OSS. Developers contributing to project tasks in groups other than their own can explore novel ideas for new project creation, because they can benefit from sharing knowledge, whereas developers contributing to project tasks inside their own group exploit ideas to improve those existing projects with better inside-group search possibility; and this demands more developers to join those group projects.},

The first part of this paper summarizes the essential knowledge about UAVs, including the fundamentals of flight mechanics and aerodynamics, and the structure of a UAV system. The second section generally explains the modelling and simulation of a UAV. In the main section, more than 50 free programs for the design, analysis, modelling, and simulation of a UAV are described. Although the selection of the free software has been focused on small subsonic UAVs, the software can also be used for other categories of aircraft in some cases; e.g. for MAVs and large gliders. The applications with an historical importance are also included. Finally, the results of the analysis are evaluated and discussed--a block diagram of the free software is presented, possible connections between the programs are outlined, and future improvements of the free software are suggested.},

The rSCA package is efficient in dealing with both continuous and discrete variables, as well as nonlinear relationships between the variables. It divides the sample sets of dependent variables into different subsets (or subclusters) through a series of cutting and merging operations based upon the theory of multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). The modeling results are given by a cluster tree, which includes both intermediate and leaf subclusters as well as the flow paths from the root of the tree to each leaf subcluster specified by a series of cutting and merging actions. The rSCA package is a handy and easy-to-use tool and is freely available at http://cran.r-project.org/package=rSCA. By applying the developed package to air quality management in an urban environment, we demonstrate its effectiveness in dealing with the complicated relationships among multiple variables in real-world problems.},

We address this gap by drawing on the sociological theory of community markers. The three community markers in the context of OSS are loyalty, ideology, and identification. We also draw on marketing literature to propose four contributory behaviors of passive users of OSS that we theorize to be impacted by the community markers: user brand-extension, word-of-mouth, endorsement, and community involvement. We further classify passive users' contributory behaviors according to the difficulty of their enactment and examine the differential influence of the OSS community markers. Partial-least squares (PLS) analyses of data obtained through a survey of passive users of an OSS product provide support for the majority of the hypotheses.},

	abstract = {Entrepreneurship, long neglected by economists and management scholars, has made a dramatic comeback in the last two decades, not only among academic economists and management scholars, but also among policymakers, educators and practitioners. Likewise, the economic theory of the firm, building on Ronald Coase's (1937) seminal analysis, has become an increasingly important field in economics and management. Despite this resurgence, there is still little connection between the entrepreneurship literature and the literature on the firm, both in academia and in management practice. This book fills this gap by proposing and developing an entrepreneurial theory of the firm that focuses on the connections between entrepreneurship and management. Drawing on insights from Austrian economics, it describes entrepreneurship as judgmental decision made under uncertainty, showing how judgment is the driving force of the market economy and the key to understanding firm performance and organization.},

The simulations searched to compare trade-offs of economic and environmental variables, in contrast to what is usually done in these types of systems, such as comparing economic variables with inventory variables.

This research investigates the various ways in which these communities manage this issue. It is shown that communities of open-source software--continue to--rely mainly on hierarchy (reserving write-access for higher echelons), which substitutes (the need for) trust. Encyclopedic communities, though, largely avoid this solution. In the particular case of Wikipedia, which is confronted with persistent vandalism, another arrangement has been pioneered instead. Trust (i.e. full write-access) is 'backgrounded' by means of a permanent mobilization of Wikipedians to monitor incoming edits. Computational approaches have been developed for the purpose, yielding both sophisticated monitoring tools that are used by human patrollers, and bots that operate autonomously. Measures of reputation are also under investigation within Wikipedia; their incorporation in monitoring efforts, as an indicator of the trustworthiness of editors, is envisaged. These collective monitoring efforts are interpreted as focusing on avoiding possible damage being inflicted on Wikipedian spaces, thereby being allowed to keep the discretionary powers of editing intact for all users. Further, the essential differences between backgrounding and substituting trust are elaborated. Finally it is argued that the Wikipedian monitoring of new edits, especially by its heavy reliance on computational tools, raises a number of moral questions that need to be answered urgently.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

The purpose of this paper is to address this gap by analyzing a large sample of library OSS projects.              Design/methodology/approach              - A total of 594 library OSS projects (469 from SourceForge and 125 from Foss4lib) are classified by type and further differentiated and assessed across a number of criteria including, but not limited to, sponsorship status, license type, and development status.              Findings              - While various types of library OSS applications were found to be under development and in use, the results show that there has been a steady decrease in the number of projects initiated since 2009. Although sponsorship was significantly positively associated with several indicators of OSS project success, the proportion of sponsored projects was relatively small compared to the proportions reported in some other contexts. In total, 71 percent of the projects have a restrictive license scheme, suggesting that the OSS ideology is valued among library OSS projects. The results also indicate that library OSS projects exhibit several characteristics that differ from the traditional developer-oriented OSS projects in terms of their technical environment.              Originality/value              - This study, as the first of its kind, offers a broader, more quantitative picture of the state of library OSS applications as well as the development characteristics of projects developing them. Several implications for research and practice, and directions for future research are provided.},

	abstract = {Purpose - This study aims to explore the process of open source software (OSS) adoption in small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and more specifically open source enterprise resource planning (ERP) as a "mission critical" OSS application in manufacturing. It also addresses the fundamental issue of ERP risk management that shapes this process. Design/methodology/approach - The approach is done through an interpretive case study of a small Canadian manufacturer that has adopted an open source ERP system. Findings - Interpreted in the light of the IT risk management, OSS and packaged application adoption literatures, results indicate that the small manufacturer successfully managed the adoption process in a rather intuitive manner, based on one guiding principle and nine practices. In analyzing the data, diffusion of innovation theory appeared to fit rather well with the situation observed and to offer rich insights to explain the mission-critical OSS adoption process. Research limitations/implications - A single case study of successful IT adoption should be eventually counterbalanced by future cases considered to be partial or total failures, using a wider multiple case study approach for comparative purposes. And this should include alternative theoretical interpretations and more detailed empirical work on the extent to which the distinctive features of OSS make its adoption more or less risk-laden. This initial effort should also be followed by further research on mission-critical OSS adoption in contexts other than SMEs (e.g. healthcare organizations) and other than ERP (e.g. customer-relationship management). Practical implications - This research confirms that open source is a credible alternative for SMEs that decide willingly or under external pressure to adopt a mission-critical system such as ERP. Moreover, it suggests that a high level of formalization is not always necessary. Originality/value - The authors argue that rich insights into the dynamics of the mission-critical OSS adoption process can be obtained by framing this process within an IT risk management context.},

In this study, we propose and validate two antecedents of organizational investment in internal human capital in the context of OSS adoption. They are (1) firm-specificity of OSS human capital, which denotes the extent to which the internal OSS human capital is strongly tied to the organization and cannot be equally well applied in other organizations, and (2) learning-related scale, which reflects the extent to which the organizational cost of learning OSS can be spread by applying the knowledge gained to other projects and business functions within the organization. Survey data collected from 114 senior Information Technology (IT) managers and professionals indicates that these two factors are positively associated with the investment in cultivating internal OSS human capital.

OSS requires firms to rethink the processes that facilitate value creation and capture. The objective of this paper is to theorise how firms create and capture value from OSS. We derive a model from extant research and refine it through the study of three inter-organisational networks. The findings reveal how a firm's ability to access a value network of complementors is crucial for effective value creation and capture. Two types of networks are evident: a high-density network of familiar partners and a low-density network of multiple, often unfamiliar, partners. Leveraging these networks depends on the level of commitment, volume of knowledge exchange and the alignment of objectives among participant firms. Effective governance is revealed as critical for creating and capturing value within both types of network; and depends on both formal and informal mechanisms. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Research on open source software (OSS) has examined value creation primarily from the perspective of the individuals and suppliers that create the software. The perspective of enterprise users who use and pay for OSS has been largely neglected so far. Understanding what paying customers want and how to create products and services they value is the cornerstone of any business model. Therefore, research on what enterprise users value in OSS is of paramount importance to OSS solution suppliers; it can be used to create a new customer base and sustain an existing one.  This study examines the value of OSS as perceived by enterprise customers. Through an analysis of three literature streams (firm participation in open source software, business models, and customer value), a model on customer value creation was developed. Interviews were conducted with nine decision makers from enterprises that use OSS in operational projects. The key findings of this research are that: i) the maturity of the software determines the degree to which customers value their relationship with the supplier; ii) customers value differentiating functionality and costs savings; and iii) switching costs with OSS depend on the size, complexity, and dependencies of the software itself. This research identifies the points of value that the suppliers of OSS should focus on, and it points to the need for marketing strategies that can demonstrate this value to enterprise customers.},

	abstract = {Purpose - This paper seeks to explore how market orientation facilitates the strategic flexibility of business models grounded in open innovation. The authors suggest that the new paradigm of open innovation may impact a firm's adaptability and responsiveness under conditions of environmental flux. However, extending innovation capacity by opening the innovation process poses major challenges for firms. The aims of this study are to explore the characteristics of open innovation activity and to contemplate the role of strategic flexibility in the design of business models based upon open innovation. Design/methodology/approach - The study draws upon a qualitative research approach through a longitudinal case study in the field of open source software (OSS). The empirical case illustrates how an OSS firm utilizes signals in its environment to flexibly alter its business model. Findings - A business model that embodies open innovation raises dilemmas between open and closed innovation paradigms. However, the authors' case highlights that an ambidextrous approach that combines market orientation with the principles of open innovation increases profitability, shortens time to market through effective market access, and enhances innovation capability. Research limitations/implications - The results have profound implications for industrial marketers, managers, management consultants and business educators. They can use the insights gleaned from this research to guide the development of business models that involve open innovation. The results indicate that firms involved in open innovation need reactive strategic flexibility to cope with the environmental diversity and variability. However, this study analyzes a single case in the field of OSS and one should be cautious when generalizing the findings. Originality/value - This paper improves the understanding of the relationship between flexibility and market orientation. It combines two areas that have previously been discussed separately, i.e. market orientation and open innovation.},

It shows revenue generation factor, cost efficiency factor and growth factor to have a positive influence on the OSS of Indian MFIs. Adjusted impairment loan loss allowance ratio, a portfolio risk factor and average loan size per borrower, a development factor, are seen to have a negative influence on OSS of Indian MFIs. The results thus infer five significant factors that Indian MFI managers must concentrate on to enhance the OSS of their organizations. The authors then discuss how mismanaging these five factors can deviate an MFI from its social goal of poverty alleviation. The crisis in Indian microfinance industry is explored to unveil the dangers involved in mismanagement of these factors. The paper concludes by stating that it is imperative for Indian MFI managers to introspect about their lending and recovery practices, so as to ensure that they manage the factors affecting their OSS, without exploiting the poor clientele.},

	abstract = {US government procurement guidelines -- including those for information technology (IT) purchases -- were created and, over many years, have been refined to increase efficiency in purchasing by fostering competition and preventing agency problems and biased decision making. One way federal procurement regulations advance public interest is by seeking "optimal" or "best" value in purchasing decisions. For each purchasing option, one determines the net benefit, which is a discounted difference between all present and future costs and benefits. This study considers the implications of pricing thresholds on government procurement processes in light of the advent and increasing use of free enterprise software. Researchers conducted a randomized Web-based survey of 138 government procurement officials (IT managers). The results indicate that free software may provide procurement officials with an opportunity to bypass institutionalized procurement best practices. The fieldwork indicates that IT purchases made through a full procurement process may enjoy a higher level of satisfaction than purchases of paid and free software acquired with limited or no procurement process review.},

Based on information gathered from the open-source website (www.osor.eu) we have built a database of open-source public interventions, establishing that public support in Europe for open-source software is usually reflected in direct adoption by a public partner or in positive statements about such adoption. Our analysis suggests that a serious analysis of the rationality, motivations and consequences of such public interventions involves a careful examination of the various roles of the public powers and the various categories of software involved. We provide empirical evidence that FOSS support is stronger in countries (i) where e-government services are more largely available, and (ii) where the domestic software industry is lagging behind. This evidence supports common views among FOSS advocates.},

But the argument for free software derives its true normative weight from social justice considerations: the evaluation of the basis for a software economy should be guided by consideration of the social and cultural states which are the ultimate goals of any economic arrangement. That is, the software economy should be evaluated in light of its ability to provide justice. We conclude with a discussion of possible avenues for reform.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

This article argues that China now needs a different voice against the IPR dogma and should make a contribution to the international effort against intellectual monopoly, and the software industry could be where to start. On one hand, China should take further measures to promote the development of free/open source software. On the other hand, China needs to scrutinize and reform relevant economic and legal systems and adjust strategy for international negotiations, strengthening antitrust enforcement against software monopoly and taking a tough stance against software patents in international community.

This paper offers an alternative to the view of the routines literature provided by T. Felin and N. J. Foss, 'The Endogenous Origins of Experience, Routines and Organizational Capabilities: The Poverty of Stimulus', published by the Journal of Institutional Economics. The emphasis here is on practice-based theories of organizational routines that are grounded in close, ethnographic observation of real routines. While this literature may be unfamiliar to some readers, it is relevant here because it specifically contradicts the core assertions made by Felin and Foss. Further, this literature provides a clear theoretical foundation for subsequent research on problems such as stability and change in routines, the nature of capabilities and dynamic capabilities, and complex ecologies of routines.

The models capture numerous important characteristics of inpatient obstetrical patient flow such as time of day and day of week dependent arrivals and length of stay, multiple patient types and clinical interventions, and multiple patient care units with inter-unit patient transfers. We have used these models in several projects at different hospitals involving design of procedure scheduling templates and analysis of inpatient obstetrical capacity. In the development of these models, we made heavy use of open source software tools and have released the entire project as a free and open source model and software toolkit.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {The focus of existing open source software (OSS) research has been on how and why individuals and firms add to the commons of public OSS code-that is, on the "giving" side of this open innovation process. In contrast, research on the corresponding "receiving" side of the innovation process is scarce. We address this gap, studying how existing OSS code is reused and serves as an input to further OSS development. Our findings are based on a survey with 686 responses from OSS developers. As the most interesting results, our multivariate analyses of developers' code reuse behavior point out that developers with larger personal networks within the OSS community and those who have experience in a greater number of OSS projects reuse more, presumably because both network size and a broad project experience facilitate local search for reusable artifacts. Moreover, we find that a development paradigm that calls for releasing an initial functioning version of the software early-as the "credible promise" in OSS-leads to increased reuse. Finally, we identify developers' interest in tackling difficult technical challenges as detrimental to efficient reuse-based innovation. Beyond OSS, we discuss the relevance of our findings for companies developing software and for the receiving side of open innovation processes, in general. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {As a new phenomenon in the software industry, Open Source Software (OSS) development has attracted a high level of research interest. Examining what motivates participants in OSS projects and how to enhance the effects of motivations has received increased attention in recent years. This study is prompted by the significant but detail-lacking examination of differential effects of various types of extrinsic motivations on participants' task effort in OSS projects and their interaction effects with participants' psychological states. Drawing upon self-determination theory, we establish four types of extrinsic motivations in OSS communities (i.e., external, introjected, identified, and integrated motivation) and investigate how these types affect task effort differently. Also, integrating self-determination theory with affective event theory, we study how satisfaction of needs for competence, autonomy, and relatedness moderates the relationships between extrinsic motivations and task effort. The research model is largely supported by data from 250 participants in various OSS projects. Theoretical contribution and practical implications are discussed. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {When software companies using free/libre open source software (F/LOSS) in their product and service offerings attempt to manage the customer pipeline and develop a community, problems may arise. Project communities and customer pipelines are not the same thing, although some participants belong to both groups. This creates confusion in the business and tension with the community. F/LOSS communities have been on the rise for the past two decades. Companies began to form around F/LOSS projects in the early 1990s, with some creating their own F/LOSS projects and some wrapping themselves around existing projects. This has created tension between company managers who are trying to earn profits from software that is "available for free," and from developers in communities that do not necessarily want to create software for someone else's corporate gain. This happens regardless of whether the company created the F/LOSS-licensed project itself, or participates in external communities around other projects, or both. This article demonstrates that separating the concepts of community and customer, and of project and product, allows a business to manage clearly both challenges of developing an engaged community and maximizing profits.},

We propose a socio-technical pattern that can be used to locate emerging coordination problems in Open Source projects. With the help of our tool and method called TESNA, we demonstrate a method to monitor the socio-technical core-periphery movement in Open Source projects. We then study the impact of different core-periphery movements on Open Source projects. We conclude that a steady core-periphery shift towards the core is beneficial to the project, whereas shifts away from the core are clearly not good. Furthermore, oscillatory shifts towards and away from the core can be considered as an indication of the instability of the project. Such an analysis can provide developers with a good insight into the health of an Open Source project. Researchers can gain from the pattern theory, and from the method we use to study the core-periphery movements. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Hardware companies are not the only entity interested in phone operating systems. Google, ever-focused on routing human eyes to its controlled advertising, realizes that even more eyes will be on mobile computing platforms in the future. With this goal in mind, Google released the Android/Linux system, now available on a variety of phones in varying degrees of software freedom. Seeking software freedom on mobile devices will remain a complicated endeavour for some time. Your community should utilize the F/LOSS releases from companies, but should not forget that, until viable community forks exist, software freedom on these devices exists at the whim of these companies.},

Guest Editors: Wei Jiang and Anurag Agarwal and Regular papers              This paper develops tests and validates a model for the antecedents of open source software (OSS) defects, using Data and Text Mining. The public archives of OSS projects are used to access historical data on over 5,000 active and mature OSS projects. Using domain knowledge and exploratory analysis, a wide range of variables is identified from the process, product, resource, and end-user characteristics of a project to ensure that the model is robust and considers all aspects of the system. Multiple Data Mining techniques are used to refine the model and data is enriched by the use of Text Mining for knowledge discovery from qualitative information. The study demonstrates the suitability of Data Mining and Text Mining for model building. Results indicate that project type, end-user activity, process quality, team size and project popularity have a significant impact on the defect density of operational OSS projects. Since many organizations, both for profit and not for profit, are beginning to use Open Source Software as an economic alternative to commercial software, these results can be used in the process of deciding what software can be reasonably maintained by an organization.

	abstract = {Purpose - YADE-OPEN DEM is an open-source software based on the discrete element method, (DEM) which uses object oriented programming techniques. The purpose of this paper is to describe the software architecture. Design/methodology/approach - The DEM chosen uses position, orientation, velocity and angular velocity as independent variables of simulated particles which are subject to explicit leapfrog time-integration scheme (Lagrangian method). The three-dimensional dynamics equations based on the classical Newtonian approach for the second law of motion are used. The track of forces and moments acting on each particle is kept at every time step. Contact forces depend on the particle geometry overlap and material properties. The normal, tangential and moment components of interaction force are included. Findings - An effort is undertaken to extract the underlying object oriented abstractions in the DEM. These abstractions are implemented in C++, conform to object oriented design principles and use design patterns. Based on that, a software framework is developed in which the abstractions provide the interface where the modelling methods can be plugged-in. Originality/value - The resulting YADE-OPEN DEM framework is designed in a generic way which provides great flexibility when adding new scientific simulation code. Some of the advantages are that numerous simulation methods can be coupled within the same framework while plug-ins can import data from other software. In addition, this promotes code improvement through open-source development and allows feedback from the community. However implementing such models requires that one adheres to the framework design and the YADE framework is a new emerging software. To download the software see http : //yade.wikia.com webpage.

OSS/FS alternatives complicate an already complex information goods market plagued by piracy concerns. Although producer perspectives on software pricing and piracy controls have been addressed extensively, consumers' perspective and willingness to pay for commercial software is not very well understood. This paper empirically determines willingness to pay for a leading commercial software application (Microsoft Office) in the presence of an OSS/FS alternative. A contingent valuation approach is used to elicit willingness to pay for the application. The research design employs a 2 × 2 × 2 experiment to investigate the impact of preventive control, deterrence control, and OSS/FS alternative. The results indicate that the availability of an OSS/FS alternative has little impact on willingness to pay for Microsoft Office. However, piracy controls significantly increase willingness to pay for Microsoft Office, even in the presence of OSS/FS alternatives. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Purpose - Open source software (OSS) products have rapidly acquired a notable importance in the last years among consumers and firms all over the world. They are mostly developed and distributed through online social networks thanks to the voluntary and collaborative actions of their members. However, their innovation and development has to face up the existence of free-riders which can benefit from the knowledge developed in the online social network. This paper aims to understand the factors that moderate the opportunistic behaviour in OSS development and distribution, which will help to correctly manage the OSS innovations. Design/methodology/approach - The influence of reputation on members' satisfaction and participation intentions in OSS online social networks are measured. Additionally, the impact of being an active and satisfied member on his/her commitment and intention to use the OSS products are studied. After the validation of measurement scales the hypotheses are contrasted with structural modelling. Findings - This research show that perceived reputation acts as a deterrent factor of free-riders. More specifically, reputation exerts a positive and significant effect on member's satisfaction with previous interactions and an indirect effect on participation intentions in the social network through satisfaction. Besides, these two outcomes of reputation boost the members' affective commitment to the OSS and, as a consequence, the intention to use OSS products is also increased. Practical implications - Reputation and satisfaction are two crucial aspects in explaining the success of an online social network since they serve to guarantee the interaction among its members. In addition, participation continuance intentions in an online network may help to increase the levels of affective commitment and loyalty to the mutual interest of the network (the OSS in this case). This result may be especially relevant for commercial networks, which are based on the admiration to a brand, firm or product. Originality/value - The analysis of online social networks as a development and distribution channel and the role of reputation in promoting members' participation (that is, avoiding opportunistic behaviour) represent a new contribution to the analysis of online social networks. This research field has acquired a notable popularity in recent years. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Organizational scholars have recently argued that economic theories and assumptions have adversely shaped management practice and human behavior, not only leading to the incorporation of trust-eroding market mechanisms into organizations, but also unnecessarily creating self-interested behavior. A number of highly influential papers have argued that the self-fulfilling nature of (even false) theories provides the underlying mechanism through which economics has adversely shaped not just social science but also management practice and individual behavior. We question these arguments and argue that there are important boundary conditions to theories falsely fulfilling themselves, boundary conditions that have hitherto been unexplored in organizational research, and boundary conditions that question the underlying premises used by organizational scholars and social scientists to attack economics. We specifically build on highly relevant findings from social psychology, philosophy, and organizational economics to show how (1) objective reality and (2) human nature provide two important boundary conditions for theories (falsely or otherwise) fulfilling themselves. We also defend organizational economics, specifically the use of high-powered incentives in organizations, and argue that self-interest (rightly understood) facilitates in creating beneficial individual and collective and societal outcomes.

Based on this analysis, they implement a set of enhancements to dotProject, including Earned Value Management, and evaluate the resulting application with respect to its CMMI-compliance. Their initial experiences applying the tool in an R\&D organization indicate that it helps establish a systematic project monitoring and control process by supporting or automating tasks. In this way, it presents an open, flexible, and free tool-integration solution for project management, illustrating that open-source tools might be appealing, especially for small organizations.

	abstract = {Many people mistakenly use the term "commercial software" as if it was the opposite of Free/Libre Open Source Software (F/LOSS). This is in spite of: 1. the rise in commercial development and support for F/LOSS, 2. the goal of most F/LOSS projects to incorporate improvements, which is actually a form of financial gain, 3. official definitions of "commercial item" that include F/LOSS, and 4. F/LOSS licenses and projects that clearly approve of commercial support. In reality there are two types of commercial software: proprietary software and F/LOSS. This paper provides examples for each of the four points mentioned, briefly notes some alternative terms, and ends with some conclusions, explaining why it is important to understand that F/LOSS software is almost always commercial.},

	abstract = {The purpose of this paper is to develop and test a model of the relative performance of open source software (OSS) projects. This paper evaluates the relative performance of OSS projects by evaluating multiple project inputs and multiple project outputs by using a data envelopment analysis (DEA) model. The DEA model produces an efficiency score for each project based on project inputs and outputs. The method of producing an efficiency score is based on the convex envelopment technology structure. The efficiency measure quantifies a "distance" to an efficient frontier. The DEA model produced an index of corresponding intensities linking an inefficient project to its benchmark efficient project(s). The inefficiency measures produced an ordering of inefficient projects. Eight projects were found to be "efficient" and used as benchmarking projects. This research is limited to only security-based OSS projects. Future research on other areas of OSS projects is warranted. The result of this research is a practical model that can be used by OSS project developers to evaluate the relative performance of their projects and make resource decisions. An OSS project manger can effectively use these results to critically evaluate resources for their project and judge the relative efficiency of the resources.},

However, when one plans to study the adequacy of open source software (OSS), it is necessary to have a method of qualification and selection adapted to the characteristics of this type of software and to precisely examine the constraints and risks specific to OSS. Since the open source field has a very broad scope, it is also necessary to use a qualification method that differentiates between numerous candidates to meet technical, functional and strategic requirements. The vast amount of available OSS software requires a methodology to allow for the evaluation of potential candidates to meet business requirements. The QSOS methodology allows for an iterative needs analysis for gauging the technical, functional, and strategic capabilities of OSS products.},

Employees belonging to the open source movement often advocate the use of open source software within their organization. Hence, their belief in the underlying open source software ideology may influence the decision making on the adoption of open source software. This may result in an ideological—rather than pragmatic—decision. A recent study has shown that American organizations are quite pragmatic in their adoption decision. We argue that there may be circumstances in which there is more opportunity for ideological behavior. We therefore investigated the organizational adoption decision in Belgian organizations. Our results indicate that most organizations are pragmatic in their decision making. However, we have found evidence that suggests that the influence of ideology should not be completely disregarded in small organizations.},

Next we examine the role of these technologies in bridging the digital divide along three complementary dimensions. First, we show that both affordable technology and sound policy are necessary for digital inclusion. Second, we look at how these two technologies are extended, integrated, and customized in information and communication technology (ICT) solutions that are both creative and effective. Third, we describe how the hardware and software in networked systems have been tailored to support applications that are as diverse as the people using them. We also present a series of case studies that highlight specific wireless network and open source technologies and their impact on the education of children, as well as the development of local communities.},

Qualitative data were collected over a four year period using a virtual ethnography in a study of free and open source software development and, in particular, a study of a free software community, GNUenterprise, located at www.gnuenterprise.org, which has the goal of developing a free enterprise resource planning software system.  It is concluded that the ideology of the free software movement continues to be one of the factors which mobilize people to contribute to free and open source software development. This movement represents a new type of computerization movement which promotes the investment of time in learning a new software development process instead of investment of money in the acquisition and use of new technology. The research findings are limited by a detailed study of only one free software development project. This paper is of significance to software developers and managers of firms who wish to incorporate free and open source software into their companies. This research presents an original conceptual diagram and framework for how computerization movements have emerged into an occupational community. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {The aim of this paper is to investigate the role of online networking during the innovation process, including its role(s) in communication, cooperation and coordination. The paper neither implicitly assumes that online computer-based networking is a prerequisite for the innovation process nor denies the possibility that innovation can emerge and successfully survive without it. It merely presupposes that, in cases of innovation where information and communication technologies play a substantial role, non-proprietarity may offer an interesting alternative to innovations based on proprietary knowledge. The paper borrows from the theory of communities-of-practice, which takes into account social relations, contacts, and the transfer and incorporation of knowledge. Open source innovation is not the exclusive preserve of computer nerds, but also has implications for existing software manufacturers. The paper therefore includes the case of IBM, a company which has successfully integrated this new and more open way of collaboration into its business model. The paper concludes that online computer-based innovation fundamentally challenges current ways of communicating, cooperating and coordinating during the innovation and product development process. Moreover, it challenges the traditional business model in that it forces the actors involved to shift the focus from the innovation itself to the identification of new supporting services higher up the value chain.},

	abstract = {Anecdotal and research evidences show that the Free and Open Source Software (F/OSS) development model has produced a paradigm shift in the way we develop, support, and distribute software. This shift is not only redefining the software industry but also the way we teach and learn in our software engineering (SE) courses. But for many universities F/OSS is seen as an optional low cost technology to support the IT infrastructure and administrational duties. Few see F/OSS as an opportunity for students to learn the SE concepts and skills we teach. Furthermore, it is still an open question as to whether the F/OSS methodology can be effectively used to teach SE courses within the formally structured curriculum in most universities. This paper discusses F/OSS projects as bazaars of learning that offer a meaningful learning context. The discussion is centered on a pilot study in which students were involved in software testing in F/OSS projects. We present the teaching and learning framework we used in the pilot study and report on our experiences, lessons learned, and some practical problems we encountered. Our grading and evaluation approach show that the students did relatively well as bug hunters and reporters. Results from two online surveys indicate that students are motivated in participating in software testing in the bazaar, and they are willing to participate in project activities long after their graduation. The study reveals one possible way SE educators can teach and integrate F/OSS into their formal curricular structure. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

On the negative side, this increasing dependence on computers has resulted in research that has become increasingly difficult to replicate. In this paper, we propose some basic standards to improve the production and reporting of computational results in economics for the purpose of accuracy and reproducibility. In particular, we make recommendations on four aspects of the process: computational practice, published reporting, supporting documentation, and visualization. Also, we reflect on current developments in the practice of computing and visualization, such as integrated dynamic electronic documents, distributed computing systems, open source software, and their potential usefulness in making computational and empirical research in economics more easily reproducible.

This paper develops and tests a model of the impacts of license restrictiveness and organizational sponsorship on two indicators of success: user interest in, and development activity on, open source software development projects. Using data gathered from Freshmeat.net and project home pages, the main conclusions derived from the analysis are that (1) license restrictiveness and organizational sponsorship interact to influence user perceptions of the likely utility of open source software in such a way that users are most attracted to projects that are sponsored by nonmarket organizations and that employ nonrestrictive licenses, and (2) licensing and sponsorship address complementary developer motivations such that the influence of licensing on development activity depends on what kind of organizational sponsor a project has. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed, and the paper outlines several avenues for future research. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Some governments have actually begun to procure FLOSS, whereas others have channeled public funds to large-scale FLOSS projects. This study demonstrates both the benefits and the risks of government policy favoring FLOSS from the perspective of economics, technology, and politics, and to further analyze whether these same policy goals can be achieved through government support of FLOSS. The most fundamental argument of the study is that, in lending its support to FLOSS, the difference between a government user and a business user is that the government should take into account society's long-term interests, not merely its own interests as a consumer.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) development teams provide an interesting and convenient setting for studying distributed work. We begin by answering perhaps the most basic question: what is the social structure of these teams? We conducted social network analyses of bug-fixing interactions from three repositories: Sourceforge, GNU Savannah and Apache Bugzilla. We find that some OSS teams are highly centralized, but contrary to expectation, others are not. Projects are mostly quite hierarchical on four measures of hierarchy, consistent with past research but contrary to the naive image of these projects. Furthermore, we find that the level of centralization is negatively correlated with project size, suggesting that larger projects become more modular, or possibly that becoming more modular is a key to growth. The paper makes a further methodological contribution by identifying appropriate analysis approaches for interaction data. We conclude by sketching directions for future research.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {The software industry is rapidly being reformed by the collective development of open, common software - open source software (OSS) - sometimes being free at no charge, but always with the source code revealed for changing, testing and improvement. The purpose here is to examine the role and power of software in the economy and review the economic impacts of the trend to OSS on the software industry, largely from a European industrial and social perspective. The paper briefly traces the economic significance of the software industry and the dominance in packaged software of the large US publishers, the phenomena of natural monopolies building in software packages, and the need for different industry structure for Europe, as it exhibits a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME) and system integrator structure. It then examines the balancing affects of OSS. The paper also addresses the role that poor software plays in creating new costs or externalities for its users when it fails, contrasting the robustness of open source in defect repair. The paper finds that the way forward in economic terms for Europe may well be to follow and encourage OSS for reasons of creating a strong software industry and for a counterbalance to current monopolistic trends. The paper's findings emphasise the need for investment, education and encouragement in OSS, by both the public and private sectors, to build a strong knowledge-based society in Europe. The paper introduces the ideas of the basic economic mechanisms of volume sales of software as a good, with analysis of the industry impacts of confluence of the network effect coupled with the law of increasing returns with volume to drive monopolistic positions in the proprietary software package industry.},

An overview of XML is provided, a number of open source XML applications/systems are reviewed, and a system created by the author using some of these tools is described. The open source tools for working with XML are maturing, and they provide the means for the library profession to easily publish library content on the Internet, using open standards. Here are some of the process used to publish things: 1. Have an idea. 2. Write it down. 3. Mark it up in Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). 4. Assign subject terms. 5. Make sure the terms are in the database. 6. Add the TEI to the database; do the data entry. 7. Build the TEI file. 8. Check it for validity.},

Aimed at enterprise-scale customers, these services range from the provision of IP-VPNs to full IT outsourcing, and span the range of infrastructure domains from desktop to data centre. The primary challenge lies not in the ICT infrastructure itself, but in the increasing demands placed upon the operational support systems (OSS) to deliver services holistically across the range of ICT operations. Based on BT's experience with corporate and government customers, this paper presents a detailed study of the ICT challenges on the OSS in achieving an end-to-end view of ICT service management. It proposes an architectural route forward and highlights BT's work on policy-based service management solutions. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Mass-market consumers can be divided between those who are informed about the existence of OSS and those who are uninformed. Since OSS producers have little incentive to advertise, there may be a substantial mass of uniformed consumers, leading to market failures that may justify government intervention. We study three government policies: (a) mandated adoption, whereby the government forces public agencies, schools, and universities to adopt OSS, (b) information provision, whereby the government informs the uninformed users about the existence and the characteristics of OSS, and (c) subsidy, whereby the government makes a payment to consumers if they adopt OSS. We show that mandated adoption and information provision may increase social welfare, but the subsidy always reduces it. When network externalities are added to the model, we show that mandated adoption and information provision may increase social welfare if they help the market to tip towards standardization.

We would therefore expect incompatible strains of software to develop, and consequently a demand for standardization to arise. However, this is only partly the case. In this paper we explore which other coordinative mechanisms are at work apart from committee standardization. We identify four other categories of coordinative mechanisms, and illustrate their relevance in OSS development. They complement committee standardization, can be used in standardization, and are sometimes an alternative to standardization. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Resistance is frequently viewed as a negative aspect of human interaction. Although resistance manifests itself in numerous ways, resistance to change is frequent when individuals are introduced to new ideas or innovations. This form of resistance can limit forward progress of either an individual or an organization. However, a few papers investigated possible positive roles of resistance in human life. This paper proposes that resistance can be a positive motivator to achieve change. Open source software (OSS) is a technological innovation that is laden with aspects of resistance. One of the initial motivations for the development of open source software was "psychological reactance" on the part of a few software developers. Reactance is a limited part of the overall construct of resistance; specifically, resistance caused by external threats to an individual's freedom of choice, which generally manifests itself affectively. This paper looks at the role of resistance as a motivator for technological innovation from the perspective of open source softwre development. It also presents techniques for overcoming resistance to the adoption of open source software. Specific techniques presented are the Alpha and Omega strategies for overcoming resistance. Alpha strategies work by attempting to increase the approach forces towards some goal. Conversely, Omega strategies attempt to decrease the avoidance forces, thereby removing resistance to change. Both techniques are used in the context of open source software development to motivate participants.},

The "private investment" model assumes returns to the innovator result from private goods and efficient regimes of intellectual property protection. The "collective action" model assumes that under conditions of market failure, innovators collaborate in order to produce a public good. The phenomenon of open source software development shows that users program to solve their own as well as shared technical problems, and freely reveal their innovations without appropriating private returns from selling the software. This paper proposes that open source software development is an exemplar of a compound "private-collective" model of innovation that contains elements of both the private investment and the collective action models and can offer society the "best of both worlds" under many conditions. A new set of research questions this model raises for scholars in organization science are described.},

This article highlights the vulnerability of the open source software movement to patent infringement lawsuits. With the number of patents on software algorithms predicted to exceed 100,000 this year, it is now virtually impossible to write any computer program, however trivial, that does not violate one or more patents. This paper argues that this situation is not only ludicrous, but it is contrary to any reasonable reading of the Constitution's intentions with respect to the protection of intellectual property. In addition, the patentability of software algorithms stems from the U.S. Supreme Court's failure to grasp one of the most fundamental concepts of computer science. From this error stems a long, dysfunctional chain of legal reasoning and patent policies, the effect of which has been to transform the mental reasoning processes, abstract knowledge, and scientific truths of computing into patentable subject matter. The result poses a potentially catastrophic threat not only to the open source software movement and the emerging industry of electronic commerce, but more fundamentally, to the very existence of the sciences of computing, without which further U.S. technological leadership will be impossible to sustain.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

However, it is difficult to further enrich the features of text encoding vectors. At the same time, most existing bug report classification methods ignore the submitter's personal information. To solve these problems, we construct nine personal information characteristics of bug report submitters in GitHub by survey. Then, we propose a GitHub bug report classification method named personal information fine‐tuning network (PIFTNet) based on transfer learning and the submitter's personal information. PIFTNet transfers the general text feature vectors in bidirectional encoder representation from transformers (BERT) to the domain of bug report classification by fine‐tuning the pre‐training parameters in BERT. It also combines the text characteristics and the characteristics of the submitter's personal information to construct the classification model. In addition, we propose a two‐stage training method to alleviate the catastrophic changes in the pre‐training parameters and loss of the initially learned knowledge caused by direct training of PIFTNet. We verify the proposed PIFTNet on the dataset extracted from GitHub and empirical results prove the effectiveness of PIFTNet.},

Integrating the motivational theory and social capital theory, this article intends to explore users’ contribution in OSS communities. A mixed method of SEM and fsQCA was used to perform data analysis. We found that intrinsic motivations (flow experience and self-efficacy), extrinsic motivations (perceived reputation and reciprocity), social interaction ties, community identification, and common language positively affect users’ contribution intention. Trust has no effect on the contribution intention. The fsQCA results indicated that flow experience, perceived reputation, reciprocity and trust are the common core conditions of four configurations leading to contribution intention. The results suggest that OSS communities need to be concerned with users’ motivations and develop social capital in order to encourage their contribution.},

	abstract = {Research SummaryWe extend the ownership competence framework by discussing how the features of the institutional environment influence the exercise of ownership competence. Two amendments are proposed. First, we add a new dimension to the framework, institutional competence (“where to own”), which denotes that individuals and firms have heterogeneous abilities to assess how an institutional environment affects the potential uses of a resource. Second, we argue that institutional uncertainty moderates the three original dimensions of the framework, impairing the exercise of ownership competence of some entrepreneurs and firms more than of others. We use examples from the literature to illustrate our arguments. We also discuss the implications of our analysis.Managerial SummaryThe ownership competence framework is built on the idea that business owners have different abilities to deploy resources and create value. Starting from this contribution, we shed light on the specific role that the institutional environment plays in the exercise of ownership competence. We argue that the ownership competence framework must explicitly consider where ownership takes place in order to explain the actions of entrepreneurs and firms. We also claim that institutional uncertainty can influence value creation in more subtle ways than indicated in the original formulation of the ownership competence framework. All in all, this article paves the way for institutional aspects to be considered more explicitly in the strategic analysis of ownership.},

The flaw led to risks in software used by government agencies, Web service providers such as Amazon Web Services and Apple iCloud, and even video games such as Minecraft. The Log4J issue earned a rare rating of 10 on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System, signaling the highest level of risk, and cybersecurity experts warned the effects could be felt for years until every affected program can be secured.

	abstract = {Contributions by individual open source software (OSS) community members are the lifeblood of the OSS projects that power today's digital economy and are important for the very survival of such communities. Individual contributions by OSS community members to others' projects and their own determine whether OSS communities are resilient in the face of major shocks. Arguably, if crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic prompt users to reduce their contributions to others' projects relative to the contributions to their own projects, such behavior can have implications for the overall resilience of the OSS community. Therefore, whether and how individuals change their contributions in the face of a crisis is an important question. We examine whether members in an OSS community increased or decreased their contributions to others' projects relative to their own in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, a sudden and unexpected global health-related shock that has affected almost everyone. We also compare and contrast this behavior when the OSS community faced increasing unemployment, an economic cyclic shock that is arguably and relatively more personal. Drawing on the concept of prosocial behavior and conservation of resources (COR) theory, we hypothesize that the pandemic increased OSS community members' contributions to others' projects relative to their own; on the other hand, the threat of rising unemployment decreased OSS community members' contributions to others' projects relative to their own. Our empirical analyses of a longitudinal dataset of over 18,000 OSS community members on GitHub, with more than 1.4 million member-day observations, support our hypotheses. This study contributes by uncovering the differential effects of exogenous health-related and economic shocks on the resilience of the OSS community. We conclude with a discussion of our findings' implications for OSS community resilience.},

	abstract = {A constant influx of newcomers is essential for the sustainability and success of open source software (OSS) projects. However, successful onboarding is always challenging because newcomers face various initial contributing barriers. To support newcomer onboarding, OSS communities widely adopt the mentoring approach. Despite its significance, previous mentoring studies tend to focus on the newcomer's perspective, leaving the mentor's perspective relatively under-studied. To better support mentoring, we study the popular Google Summer of Code (GSoC). It is a well-established global program that offers stipends and mentors to students aiming to bring more student developers into OSS development. We combine online data analysis, an email survey, and semi-structured interviews with the GSoC mentors to understand their motivations, challenges, strategies, and gains. We propose a taxonomy of GSoC mentors’ engagement with four themes, ten categories, 34 sub-categories, and 118 codes, as well as the mentors’ attitudes toward the codes. In particular, we find that mentors participating in GSoC are primarily intrinsically motivated, and some new motivators emerge adapting to the contemporary challenges, e.g., sustainability and advertisement of projects. Forty-one challenges and 52 strategies associated with the program timeline are identified, most of which are first time revealed. Although almost all the challenges are agreed upon by specific mentors, some mentors believe that several challenges are reasonable and even have a positive effect. For example, the cognitive differences between mentors and mentees can stimulate new perspectives. Most of the mentors agreed that they had adopted these strategies during the mentoring process, but a few strategies recommended by the GSoC administration were not agreed upon. Self-satisfaction, different skills, and peer recognition are the main gains of mentors to participate in GSoC. Eventually, we discuss practical implications for mentors, students, OSS communities, GSoC programs, and researchers.},

A structural equation model (SEM) has been defined under the postulates of the Path-Goal leadership theory and Motivational Behaviour. This model has tried to explain and predict the use of OSS solutions by teachers in an educational context. The findings confirm the positive relationships between transactional and transformational leaderships with extrinsic and intrinsic motivations. Additionally, the findings show the positive relationship between extrinsic and intrinsic motivations and the contributions to the OSS project in teaching. This research suggests several implications for both leaders and members of an OSS project in an educational context. First, the contribution of teachers and instructors to the project is greater when the motivation is fostered by the leader. Second, this study finds that motivating the participants of a project – teachers in this case – is highly recommended, in order to reach a successful adoption of OSS solutions for education.},

As organizations increasingly contribute to and rely on OSS as part of their strategy, understanding how they can collaborate to build software holds importance for the future of software development. This study collects a unique dataset of development tasks from a large orgsOSS project spanning over two years and seven releases. Building on existing OSS research, we explore norms with respect to collaboration, i.e., how developers assign, discuss, and complete tasks, in an orgsOSS project. Interestingly, our analysis reveals that developers in orgsOSS do not always adhere to ideals of widespread sharing and participation espoused by traditional OSS, however some developer and task characteristics helped foster these ideals. Based on these and other findings, we develop a set of propositions and associated collaboration mechanisms that are important to future orgsOSS and other similarly structured software development projects.},

Widely shared reports indicate that gender differences may be specific to each region. However, how complete can these reports be with little to no research reflective of the Open Source Software (OSS) process and communities software is now commonly developed in? Our study presents a multi-region geographical analysis of gender inclusion on GitHub. This mixed-methods approach includes quantitatively investigating differences in gender inclusion in projects across geographic regions and investigate these trends over time using data from contributions to 21,456 project repositories. We also qualitatively understand the unique experiences of developers contributing to these projects through a survey that is strategically targeted to developers in various regions worldwide. Our findings indicate that gender diversity is low across all parts of the world, with no substantial difference across regions. However, there has been statistically significant improvement in diversity worldwide since 2014, with certain regions such as Africa improving at faster pace. We also find that most motivations and barriers to contributions (e.g., lack of resources to contribute and poor working environment) were shared across regions, however, some insightful differences, such as how to make projects more inclusive, did arise. From these findings, we derive and present implications for tools that can foster inclusion in open source software communities and empower contributions from everyone, everywhere.},

	abstract = {OSS projects are being developed by globally distributed contributors, who often collaborate through the pull-based model today. While this model lowers the barrier to entry for OSS developers by synthesizing, automating and optimizing the contribution process, coordination among an increasing number of contributors remains as a challenge due to the asynchronous and self-organized nature of distributed development. In particular, duplicate contributions, where multiple different contributors unintentionally submit duplicate pull requests to achieve the same goal, are an elusive problem that may waste effort in automated testing, code review and software maintenance. While the issue of duplicate pull requests has been highlighted, to what extent duplicate pull requests affect the development in OSS communities has not been well investigated. In this paper, we conduct a mixed-approach study to bridge this gap. Based on a comprehensive dataset constructed from 26 popular GitHub projects, we obtain the following findings: (a) Duplicate pull requests result in redundant human and computing resources, exerting a significant impact on the contribution and evaluation process. (b) Contributors’ inappropriate working patterns and the drawbacks of their collaborating environment might result in duplicate pull requests. (c) Compared to non-duplicate pull requests, duplicate pull requests have significantly different features, e.g., being submitted by inexperienced contributors, being fixing bugs, touching cold files, and solving tracked issues. (d) Integrators choosing between duplicate pull requests prefer to accept those with early submission time, accurate and high-quality implementation, broad coverage, test code, high maturity, deep discussion, and active response. Finally, actionable suggestions and implications are proposed for OSS practitioners.},

One of the areas of study with scarce literature is linked with the impact of the Information and Communication Technologies based on collaborative environments, such as Free and Open Source Software, on the spread of the Collaborative Economy. Some questions are raised, such as: (1) To what extent do organizations linked with Collaborative Economy make use of Free and Open Source Software?, (2) What are the incentives that motivate the implementation of Free and Open Source Software in Collaborative Economy companies?, (3) What use do Collaborative Economy companies give to Free and Open Source Software?, and (4) Is there a greater use of Free and Open Source Software expected for the coming years among these organizations? To answer these questions, a study based on the Delphi method has been designed. To this end, a panel of 15 high-level experts in the field was formed. From the consensus of the experts, a significant role for Free and Open Source Software in the different collaborative components and industries is evident, with the current levels practically being maintained by the year 2025.},

For instance, open source software (OSS) is developed by mass collaboration on digital communities to provide software users free alternatives to commercial products. OSS is particularly valuable to meet the needs of numerous disadvantaged users for whom proprietary software is not affordable. While OSS projects are lack of formal organizational structure, project leaders play a significant role in initiating and managing these projects and eventually, influencing the degree to which the developed software is used and liked by users. Drawing on resource dependence theory, we investigate the impacts of two team‐level characteristics of OSS project leaders (ie, size and tenure) on how well the developed software can address users' needs, with regard to the quantity of software being used by users and the quality of software to users' satisfaction. Further, from a resource dependence perspective, we examine the moderating role of project leaders' network ties in shaping the contingency of these effects. By using a large‐scale dataset from 43 048 OSS development projects in SourceForge community, we find empirical evidence corroborating our theory. Taken together, our findings suggest the boundary‐spanning role of project leaders in developing digital social innovation.},

	abstract = {In enterprise software markets, firms are increasingly using services-based business models built on open-source software (OSS) to compete with established, proprietary software firms. Because third-party firms can also strategically contribute to OSS and compete in the services market, the nature of competition between OSS constituents and proprietary software firms can be complex. Moreover, their incentives are likely influenced by the licensing schemes that govern OSS. We study a three-player game and examine how open-source licensing affects competition among an open-source originator, an open-source contributor, and a proprietor competing in an enterprise software market. In this regard, we examine (1) how quality investments and prices are endogenously determined in equilibrium, (2) how license restrictiveness impacts equilibrium investments and the quality of offerings, and (3) how license restrictiveness affects consumer surplus and social welfare. Although some in the open-source community often advocate restrictive licenses such as the GNU General Public License because it is not always in the best interest of the originator for the contributor to invest greater development effort, such licensing can actually be detrimental to both consumer surplus and social welfare when it exacerbates this incentive conflict. We find such an outcome in markets characterized by software providers with similar development capabilities yet cast in favor of the proprietor. In contrast, when these capabilities either become more dispersed or remain similar but tilt in favor of open source, a more restrictive license instead encourages greater effort from the OSS contributor, leads to higher OSS quality, and provides a larger societal benefit.},

What is the nature of these novel arrangements? Does volunteers’ participation remain critical for these ecosystems? Despite extensive research on commercial participation in OSS, the exact nature and extent of company contributions to OSS development, and the impact of this engagement may have on the volunteer community have not been clarified. To bridge the gap, we perform an exploratory study of OpenStack: a large OSS ecosystem with intense commercial participation. We quantify companies’ contributions via the developers that they provide and the commits made by those developers. We find that companies made far more contributions than volunteers and the distribution of the contributions made by different companies is also highly unbalanced. We observe eight unique contribution models based on companies’ commercial objectives and characterize each model according to three dimensions: contribution intensity, extent, and focus. Companies providing full cloud solutions tend to make both intensive (more than other companies) and extensive (involving a wider variety of projects) contributions. Usage-oriented companies make extensive but less intense contributions. Companies driven by particular business needs focus their contributions on the specific projects addressing these needs. Minor contributors include community players (e.g., the Linux Foundation) and research groups. A model relating the number of volunteers to the diversity of contribution shows a strong positive association between them.},

Previous research has addressed the motivations of both individuals and companies to engage with OSS projects. However, limited research has been undertaken that examines and explains the practical mechanisms or work practices used by companies and their developers to pursue their commercial and technical objectives when engaging with OSS projects. This research investigates the variety of work practices used in public communication channels by company contributors to engage with and contribute to eight community OSS projects. Through interviews with contributors to the eight projects we draw on their experiences and insights to explore the motivations to use particular methods of contribution. We find that companies utilise work practices for contributing to community projects which are congruent with the circumstances and their capabilities that support their short- and long-term needs. We also find that companies contribute to community OSS projects in ways that may not always be apparent from public sources, such as employing core project developers, making donations, and joining project steering committees in order to advance strategic interests. The factors influencing contributor work practices can be complex and are often dynamic arising from considerations such as company and project structure, as well as technical concerns and commercial strategies. The business context in which software created by the OSS project is deployed is also found to influence contributor work practices.},

Despite its ubiquity, there is a lack of empirical evidence to validate the relative position of each task cluster within the onion model. In this study, we map out the community structure of a large open source project and observe its bug‐fixing patterns to explore the relationship between tasks and structure. Our study makes three significant contributions. First, we find no empirical evidence to support the structural location of bug‐fixing tasks in the onion structure. Second, we find empirical evidence to support the core‐periphery continuum model linking an actor’s coreness to problem‐solving ability. Third, our results suggest that the importance and location of each task within the core‐periphery structure evolve over time.

This collaboration between corporate professionals and open source software community members is strikingly different from the early days of software development where for‐profit firms attempted to dominate and control the industry while attempting to throttle the success of independent developers offering an alternative, open source option. While many metaphors like trading zones, common pool resources and ecosystems have helped understand the phenomenon, the metaphors do not portray what the industry was like before and after the transition. We adopt a postcolonial metaphor as an analytical lens to examine such collaboration based on qualitative data gathered over three years from executives, managers and developers within corporations that engage in open source software development. Drawing on these insights, we then theorize a “Third Design Space,” based on the concept of the third space proposed by Bhabha. This metaphor encourages the cultivation of a new design environment, creation of new design associations and circulation of shared design resources. Together these practices and behaviours make it possible to nurture innovative methods and new rituals for designing software with results and methods that represent a distinct departure from the competitive and proprietary past, even creating innovative artefacts that could not have been created without the Third Design Space.},

	abstract = {Collaboration through open superposition describes the dominant work orchestration mechanism observed in free (Libre) and open-source (FLOSS) software, wherein the software development occurs by the sequential layering of individual tasks. This work orchestration mechanism is different from the traditional idea of software development, where the focus is toward cowork and concurrent development facilitated by a modular software design architecture. Our study theorizes and examines the motivational mechanisms that operate within superposed work structures to influence the success of FLOSS projects. We also unearth the contextual conditions that may limit the influence of the superposed nature of work on FLOSS project success. Furthermore, given the increasing use of FLOSS by organizations, we investigate the specificities brought to these motivational mechanisms when FLOSS projects are owned by organizations. The results from our analysis of over 6,500 FLOSS projects hosted on GitHub support a nonlinear relationship between the degree of superposition and the success of the FLOSS project. Moreover, we find that the type of ownership moderates this nonlinear relationship such that (1) organizational ownership mitigates the influence of the degree of superposition on the success of the project and that (2) under organizational ownership, the optimal degree of superposition (the point at which the success of the project is at a maximum) is lower than for individual-owned projects. This research advances our understanding of work structures, motivation, and organizational participation in FLOSS environments by describing the influence of task structures on the success of projects. The study also provides FLOSS practitioners with valuable insights for modeling project task structures to facilitate their success.},

	abstract = {Open source software (OSS) communities are dependent on the code contributions of developers who, in many cases, never meet face-to-face and collaborate primarily through technology-enabled means. With their fluid membership, such communities often rely on engaging the commitment of developers to their cause. Given the changing nature of OSS communities, developers face barriers in appreciating appropriate ways of contributing to the collaborative effort. Such uncertainty about how to contribute results in OSS communities losing developers as they devote their attention to other, more welcoming, communities. In this research, we draw upon uncertainty reduction theory to argue that developers have two alternative avenues at their disposal to gain certainty about how to contribute: passive and interactive. Leveraging the person–environment fit perspective, we argue that congruence and incongruence in the OSS values of a developer and an OSS community serve as an avenue for passive approaches to gaining certainty, to the degree that appropriate ways of contributing are encoded in these values. Further, leveraging social network theory, we argue that centrality within a community's communication network constitutes an avenue for interactive approaches for gaining certainty about how to contribute. Using polynomial regression analysis, we analyze survey and archival data from 410 developers in an OSS community. Results suggest that developer centrality moderates the impact of congruence and incongruence in OSS values on commitment. Moreover, commitment fully mediates the impact of OSS value congruence and incongruence on developer contribution activity. We discuss the implications of our findings for research and practice.},

The authors draw on a case study of the ‘Heidi bug’ discovered during the development of the Mozilla Firefox web browser to examine how ‘gendered talk’ was (en)‐acted to facilitate ‘bricolage’ in an online work environment. Such gendered talks contain cultural references familiar to male developers. Though seemingly innocuous, such acts could be seen as a performance of gender that simply reflects the hegemonic heterosexual masculine culture manifested in an online virtual work space. The virtual work space therefore can be exclusive to those who shared the cultural references. Although it may not necessarily be ignorance or insensitivity of male developers, a more gender‐balanced, women‐friendly and inclusive workplace certainly would benefit from a more diverse environment. This article highlights the gendered aspect of software development through examining the language use and mainstream ‘bricolage’ practice, and establishes a compelling ground for enlarging the talent pool to include more women and integrating gender ethics (e.g., raising awareness of sensitive language and design approaches) into computer ethics education.},

	abstract = {Knowledge is an obtainable, renewable, dynamic, context‐dependent resource that can be shared, and the knowledge sharing cycle has 2 processes: knowledge donation, when a person voluntarily offers his/her intellectual capital to others, and knowledge collection, when a person consults other people's intellectual capital. Knowledge can be shared among individuals, groups, and organizations. A free software community is a type of community of practice arranged around a specific free software, where the knowledge shared is complex and the knowledge sharing processes have scarcely been studied. This investigation aims to identify the profiles of knowledge sharing processes in free software communities and examine how 6 motivations for sharing knowledge in free software communities are associated with each of the clusters. To accomplish this objective, a survey method was adopted, with 260 respondents belonging to free software communities. Cluster analysis was used to interpret the data. Four clusters were identified: Sporadic Sharer; Collector; Donator; and Constant Sharer. With the exception of the Sporadic Sharer, all the clusters presented high values of both collection and donation, including the Donators and Collectors. These results confirm the view of free software communities as communities of practice and highlight the importance of knowledge sharing in free software development cycle. The results reveal the importance of the Constant Sharer profile, which has the highest rates of donation and collection and is also the profile in which all the motivations appear with the highest values, indicating its key role in the functioning of free software communities.},

	abstract = {Some authors in the literature have addressed knowledge transfer via weak ties between organization’s units which are themselves strongly tied inside (e.g. Hansen, 1999). Some others have investigated knowledge management among open-source-software (OSS) developers and discussed factors influencing knowledge transfer within development teams (e.g. Joshi and Sarker, 2006). In the domain of open source software (OSS) communities, more companies are now attempting to establish relationships to benefit from these potential value-creating communities; and project managers could in fact target different goals within software development teams including knowledge transfer within and between teams. We step forward to distinguish knowledge transfer within groups as opposed to knowledge transfer between groups; where relevant projects are bundled into separate strongly intra-connected groups. In knowledge management literature there is a trade-off between sparse network structures (Burt, 2000, 2002) versus dense network structures (Walker et al., 1997; Coleman, 1988). It is argued that the former facilitates the diffusion and generation of ideas among groups, while the latter affects the implementation of idea within each dense group. To our best knowledge, there has been no study to investigate the relationship between dense and sparse network structures. We propose that knowledge transfer within dense groups has a positive influence on knowledge transfer between sparse groups, in that intragroup density, group size, developers centrality and betweenness could impact intergroup coupling. To prove our hypothesis, we use a complex network of open source software (OSS) as the domain of interest, where developers represent nodes and two developers contributing to a project task represent a network tie. Developers contributing to tasks in groups other than their own can explore novel ideas via sharing knowledge, whereas developers contributing to tasks inside groups exploit ideas to improve those projects. We investigate the idea both analytically and empirically within 4 months, 8 months and 1 year lagged time, and finally show that intragroup density has a positive whereas developers’ centrality has a negative influence on intergroup coupling.},

However, research has primarily explored such factors in the context of well-known projects, such as Linux and Apache. Yet, lesser-known projects must be examined to gain a more complete understanding. Accordingly, this paper focuses on lesser-known projects to examine three factors that influence OSS popularity: user-developer interaction, market potential and development stage. Specifically, we develop an empirical model of OSS popularity and test our hypotheses on data from 657 open source projects. The findings show that the combination of the three factors has a positive effect on OSS popularity. Moreover, in contrast to previous research, the results reveal that exchanges among users and developers have a stronger influence on OSS popularity than bug-related activities. Overall, this research provides a novel way to measure OSS popularity for lesser-known projects and offers organizations a better understanding of OSS.Alternate abstract:Alors que le logiciel libre a particulierement retenu l'attention et Pintérét du monde académique et managérial, beaucoup de recherches ont cherché á comprendre les facteurs de succes de ces logiciels OSS.

Une investigation des projets moins connus permettrait une compréhension plus complete et d'éviter un taux d'échec important des projets OSS.

The choice between these two behaviors is influenced by the mode of communication. A communication mode with little a priori structure is the best mode for communicating about new problems (i.e., formulating a problem); empirically, it is associated with project launching behaviors.

Our findings hold implications for understanding how management may influence project behaviors and problem‐solving: Firms that need to concentrate on more incremental problem‐solving efforts (e.g., because a sufficient number of attractive problems have already been defined) should create environments in which interaction is undertaken mainly via artifacts.

	abstract = {The aims of this research are to explore and evaluate the nature of the relationship between open source software (OSS) and eGovernment maturity, as well as the factors impacting their development at a national level. The study proposes a theoretical framework, under the prism of which socio-economic, technological and institutional factors critical to eGovernment and OSS are revealed. The hypotheses are evaluated by means of an econometric model of simultaneous equations. In order to better gauge the results of the hypotheses, the model is evaluated over economic environments at different stages of development. Social development and OSS growth were found to be the most important facilitators for eGovernment maturity, across countries of all stages of development. Institutional quality, technological openness, freedom in press and the macro-economic environment exerted different weights of importance across different country groupings. Findings also suggest that technological infrastructure and innovation are important drivers for OSS growth across countries at all stages of development. Research results can provide useful input for research in eGov, as they open up new directions in the study of the relation with OSS.},

	abstract = {Open source software (OSS) development is an increasingly important paradigm of software development. However, key aspects of OSS such as the determinants of project success and motivations of developers in joining these projects are not well understood. Based on organizational theory, we propose that OSS activities of patch development and feature request can be classified as exploitation (implementation-oriented) and exploration (innovation-oriented) activities, respectively. We empirically examine how the structure of social network affects the success of patch-development and feature-request networks in OSS projects, using a data set collected from the SourceForge database. Our results provide empirical support for the view that patch development and feature request are exploitation and exploration activities, respectively. Network structures differ due to team formation differences and have a differential impact on development success based on the type of activity. The concepts of ambidextrous developers and ambidexterity are explored in the context of OSS projects. Collectively, our results indicate that studying OSS projects at the artifact level could improve our understanding of OSS project success and team formation. This, in turn, could lead to better management of OSS projects.},

	abstract = {One of the puzzling aspects of open-source software (OSS) development is its public good nature. Individual developers contribute to developing the software, but do not hold the copyright to appropriate its value. This raises questions regarding motives behind such effort. We provide an integrated model of developers' incentives to describe OSS development and compare restrictive OSS licenses that force all modifications to be kept open with non-restrictive OSS licenses that allow proprietary ownership of modified works. Different incentives govern effort provision at different stages of the software development process. We show that open-source licenses can provide socially valuable software when a proprietary license fails to do so. We also show that restrictive OSS licenses generate greater effort provision in the design stage of software development relative to non-restrictive licenses. Endogenizing licensing choice, we find that a project leader chooses a non-restrictive OSS license if reputational concerns drive developers' incentives, a proprietary license when there is a large population of users in the market and a restrictive OSS license if user population is small but reputational benefit is high. Our results resonate well with empirical findings and suggest additional testable implications about the relationship between licensing and software project characteristics. Finally, we also find that the market under-provides restrictive OSS licenses relative to the efficient level, suggesting the need for subsidizing restrictive licenses in some cases.},

This increasing attention is a result of the remarkable growth in the number of OSS applications in recent years. Despite an increased number of studies on OSS project success, the interrelationships among different success indicators of OSS projects are not well understood in literature. The present study reports on the interrelationships between the success measures of OSS projects, as defined by the ability of the project to attract user and developer interest, release management, project activity, and development sustainability. To test the relationships hypothesized, we gathered data from 1,409 OSS projects over time (in two snapshots over a period of eight months). The results show the following: (a) project activity until any time period positively impacts the subsequent period's developer interest and development sustainability; (b) development sustainability positively drives user and developer interest; (c) release frequency positively influences the next period's developer interest, as well as development sustainability; (d) developer interest positively drives user interest. These findings have implications for both the OSS research community and OSS practitioners.},

Currently, there exists no working operationalization available that can be used to determine the health of open source ecosystems. Health is typically looked at from a project scope, not from an ecosystem scope. With such an operationalization, stakeholders can make better decisions on whether to invest in an ecosystem: developers can select the healthiest ecosystem to join, keystone organizers can establish which governance techniques are effective, and end-users can select ecosystems that are robust, will live long, and prosper. Design research is used to create the health operationalization. The evaluation step is done using four ecosystem health projects from literature. The Open Source Ecosystem Health Operationalization is provided, which establishes the health of a complete software ecosystem, using the data from collections of open source projects that belong to the ecosystem. The groundwork is done, by providing a summary of research challenges, for more research in ecosystem health. With the operationalization in hand, researchers no longer need to start from scratch when researching open source ecosystems' health.},

	abstract = {Our research aims at understanding the various forms of participation in Open Source Software (OSS) design, seen as distributed design in online spaces of actions-discussion, implementation, and boundary between these spaces. We propose a methodology -- based on situated analyses of a formal design process used in the Python project -- to identify the distribution of actual roles (implementation, interactive, group, and design oriented) performed by participants into and between the spaces (defining boundary spaces). This notion of roles is grounded in collaborative design activities performed online by participants. This way, our findings complete the core-periphery model of participation in OSS. Concerning the distribution of roles between spaces, we reveal a map of participation in OSS: The majority of participants are pure discussants, but all participants in the implementation spaces do also act in the discussion space, and few participants act at boundary spaces. Concerning the distribution of roles between participants in the discussion space, we reveal that interactions are structured by a central hub (occupied by key participants) and that, whereas design-oriented roles are spread among all participants, group-oriented roles are performed by one or two participants in the respective spaces and at their boundary. Finally, combination of roles reveals five individual profiles performed by participants. Our approach could be extended to other design situations to explore relationships between forms of participation -- in particular, those revealing use-oriented contributions -- performance, and quality of the design product. Finally, it could be a basis for specifying tools to monitor and manage community activity for both research issues and support of online community. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {The open source software (OSS) movement thrives on innovation and volunteer effort of developers. Scholars have expressed widespread concern about the sustainability of the OSS movement due to high levels of volunteerism. In this paper, we address a central challenge to the sustainability of OSS-developers' acceptance of monetary rewards. We strive to explain why some OSS developers accept monetary rewards and others do not. Viewed through the theoretical lens of the private-collective innovation model (0395 and 0400), this allows us to describe when developers will accept private financial rewards. Our main research objective is to clearly map the web of relationships between causal antecedents, and developers' acceptance behavior. Using a unique dataset that combines survey and behavioral measures, we find that -- (a) intention to accept monetary rewards mediates the impact of motivational elements on developers' acceptance of monetary rewards; (b) intrinsic and extrinsic motivations positively affect their intention to accept monetary rewards, community motivation negatively impacts intention and ideological motivation does not affect the intention to accept rewards and (c) these effects are obtained even after inclusion of several control variables. The theoretical and managerial implications of our work are described. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Yet relational event data are typically aggregated and dichotomized to derive networks that can be analyzed with specialized statistical methods. Transforming sequences of relational events into binary network ties entails two main limitations: the loss of information about the order and number of events that compose each tie and the inability to account for compositional changes in the set of actors and/or recipients. In this article, we introduce a newly developed class of statistical models that enables researchers to exploit the full information contained in sequences of relational events. We propose an extension of the models to cater for sequences of relational events linking different sets of actors. We illustrate the empirical application of relational event models in the context of a free/open source software project with the aim to explain the level of effort produced by contributors to the project. We offer guidance in the interpretation of model parameters by characterizing the social processes underlying organizational problem solving.

This study uses a theory integration approach to develop some initial insight into the differences between users and non-users of open source software. This study observed three groups of factors from six case studies of information sharing in the context of organizational open source software use. These factors were integrated with prior research in order to understand the physical and managerial barriers to, and enablers of, open source. The study proposes that open source users have more extensive knowledge sharing and teamwork practices in place, and are more tolerant of risk. The study also argues that open source users depended less on external technology support services but have more extensive information technology (IT) support structures. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {A comprehensive set of governance mechanisms and dimensions were investigated to identify combinations of mechanisms that are effectively used together in on-going volunteer-based open source software (OSS) projects. Three configurations were identified: Defined Community, Open Community, and Authoritarian Community. Notably, Defined Community governance had the strongest coordination and project climate and had the most extensive use of outcome, behavior, and clan control mechanisms (controller driven). The controls in the Defined Community governance configuration appear to effectively enable open, coordinated contribution and participation from a wide variety of talented developers (one of the virtues of open source development) while managing the development process and outcomes. The results add to our theoretical understanding of control in different types of information systems projects, as the combination of control modes found in OSS projects is different from those found in previous research for internal or outsourced information systems development projects. This could be due to unique features of OSS projects, such as volunteer participation and the controller being part of the development team. The results provide guidance for practitioners about how to combine 19 identified governance mechanisms into effective project governance that stimulates productive participation.

	abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is an important asset in today's software-intensive society. The success of OSS projects is highly dependent on a number of factors. These factors must be understood and managed as an OSS project progresses. Thus, project management of an OSS project has a decisive role in ensuring the success of its software. The objective of the research is to increase the understanding of the resources affecting the competitiveness of OSS projects. Herewith, the responsiveness of OSS projects to users' needs is assessed via an investigation of the defect-fixing process. A Resource-Based View of the firm (RBV) is used to build theoretical justifications for a set of hypotheses proposed in this study. Data gathered from 427 OSS projects confirmed that developers' interest in and users' contribution to the project as well as frequently updating and releasing the software affect the project's ability to gain competitive advantage through effective defect-fixing. It is also shown that OSS projects that are more popular and have a higher level of organizational communication than others are more likely to gain competitive advantage through effective defect-fixing. Finally, implications of the results for practitioners and the research community are presented. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Licensing is the defining characteristic of open source software (OSS) and often has tremendous impact on the success of OSS projects. However, OSS licenses are very different from those for proprietary software, and our understanding of the choice of OSS licenses is very limited. In this study, we explore this important decision from a learning perspective. We build collaboration networks and trace paths through which potential learning and knowledge flow across projects using a dataset derived from SourceForge. We identify that both experiential learning and vicarious learning have significant influence on OSS license choice. We provide reasons why experiential learning and vicarious learning affect decision-making regarding OSS license choice, and explore important contingencies under which the two modes of learning are more effective. We find that leadership roles on prior projects and similarities between projects significantly moderate these two modes of learning, respectively. More importantly, we argue and empirically illustrate that experiential learning is more effective than vicarious learning in influencing OSS license choice. Our research sheds new light on our understanding of license choice for OSS projects and provides practical guidelines for future OSS development. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Using detailed data collected from code repositories from SoureForge.com, we find that developer team structure and software architecture significantly moderate each other's effect on OSS development performance. Larger teams tend to produce more favorable project performance when the project being developed has a high level of structural interdependency while projects with a low level of structural interdependency require smaller teams in order to achieve better project performance. Meanwhile, centralized teams tend to have a positive impact on project performance when the OSS project has a high level of structural interdependency. However, when a project has a low level of structural interdependency, centralized teams can impair project performance. This study extends our understanding of information technology's deep engagement in organizational life and provides directions for open source practitioners to better organize their projects to achieve greater performance.

Recent examples appear to lend support to this, but there exist many detractors of OSS and resistance to the transformation it creates. Thus, it is relevant to take a closer look at the institutionalization of OSS. This paper evaluates the extent of OSS institutionalization in organizations. A practice or innovation is said to be institutionalized when it is taken-for-granted and its use becomes the norm. Drawing on institutional theory, the underlying concept of organizing vision and the rhetorical theory of diffusion of innovations, the authors analyze OSS institutionalization through the observation of the evolution of the public discourse about OSS and, simultaneously, the observation of the rate of adoption or diffusion of OSS in organizations.},

However, few studies have focused on the start-ups that enter the market just to exploit the new business opportunities stemming from the freely available technological knowledge developed by the FLOSS community (FLOSS-based start-ups). This paper aims to fill this gap by providing descriptive evidence about these firms. We address two main research questions: 1) What are the main features of FLOSS-based start-ups?; 2) What is their innovation process? We show that FLOSS-based start-ups follow a typical open innovation model that enables them to serve market niches that large incumbents are not structurally able to cover, profiting from the local production, distribution, and use of technological knowledge.

Developing these resources can be expensive and time consuming. Even when data and tools are intended for public re-use they often come with technical, legal, economic and social barriers that make them difficult to adopt, adapt and combine for use in new contexts. We focus on the promise of open, publically accessible software and data as well as crowdsourcing techniques to develop robust energy analysis tools that can deliver crucial, policy-relevant insight, particularly in developing countries, where planning resources are highly constrained -- and the need to adapt these resources and methods to the local context is high. We survey existing research, which argues that these techniques can produce high-quality results, and also explore the potential role that linked, open data can play in both supporting the modelling process and in enhancing public engagement with energy issues.

The presence of effective leaders who both steer the development and motivate the developers is crucial to ensure a successful product. Using path-goal theory and built on leadership and motivation theories, we proposed and tested a model that can be used to assess the relationship between an OSS project leader's leadership style and a developer's motivation to contribute to the software development. We specifically decomposed the leadership and motivation construct to understand the hidden mechanisms by which leadership impacts motivation. A set of survey data collected from 118 OSS developers on Sourceforge.net was used to test our hypotheses. Our results indicate that leaders' transformational leadership is positively related to developers' intrinsic motivation and that leaders' active management style is positively related to the developers' extrinsic motivation.

	abstract = {Two-mode networks are used to describe dual patterns of association between distinct social entities through their joint involvement in categories, activities, issues, and events. In empirical organizational research, the analysis of two-mode networks is typically accomplished either by (a) decomposition of the dual structure into its two unimodal components defined in terms of indirect relations between entities of the same kind or (b) direct statistical analysis of individual two-mode dyads. Both strategies are useful, but neither is fully satisfactory. In this article, the authors introduce newly developed stochastic actor-based models for two-mode networks that may be adopted to redress the limitations of current analytical strategies. The authors specify and estimate the model in the context of data they have collected on the dual association between software developers and software problems observed during a complete release cycle of an open source software project. The authors discuss the general methodological implications of the models for organizational research based on the empirical analysis of two-mode networks. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

In this paper, I use evidence from the United States and Canada to examine the distribution of these benefits and costs. I argue that although the rhetoric surrounding OSS is supported empirically, the benefits of OSS have been limited because of the way this technological project has evolved within its associated policy environment. That is, although ostensibly neutral, the policies and laws of both the U.S. and Canadian governments have tended to be positioned implicitly against the use of OSS both in the public sector and in the economy generally. In addition, OSS use and development requires a set of skills that are absent in many instances or create prohibitively high costs. Thus OSS is typically used by larger organizations, and its development is restricted to a mostly male, highly educated, high-income group of contributors. Therefore while the benefits of OSS are real, the distribution of these benefits is skewed. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {The popularity of the open source software development in the last decade, has brought about an increased interest from the industry on how to use open source components, participate in the open source community, build business models around this type of software development, and learn more about open source development methodologies. There is a need to understand the results of research in this area. Since there is a need to understand conducted research, the aim of this study is to summarize the findings of research that has been carried out on usage of open source components and development methodologies by the industry, as well as companies' participation in the open source community. Systematic review through searches in library databases and manual identification of articles from the open source conference. The search was first carried out in May 2009 and then once again in May 2010. In 2009, 237 articles were first found, from which 19 were selected based on content and quality, and in 2010, 76 new articles were found from which four were selected. Twenty three articles were identified in total. The articles could be divided into four categories: open source as part of component based software engineering, business models with open source in commercial organization, company participation in open source development communities, and usage of open source processes within a company.},

Many people involved in FLOSS see themselves as activists in a new social movement. The article discusses the KDE (Kool Desktop Environment) project as a FLOSS case study. KDE is one of several projects intended to bring ease of use of a graphical user interface (GUI) to various free operating systems.

	abstract = {Drawing on social capital theory, we develop a theoretical model aiming to explore how open source software (OSS) project effectiveness (in terms of team size, team effort and team's level of completion) is affected by expertise integration. This in turn is influenced by three types of social capital - relational capital, cognitive capital and structural capital. In addition, this study also examines two moderating effects - the impact of technical complexity on the relationship between cognitive capital and expertise integration, and of task interdependence on the relationship between expertise integration and task completion. Through a field survey of 160 OSS members from five Taiwanese communities, there is support for some of the proposed hypotheses. Both reciprocity and centrality affect expertise integration as expected, but the influence of commitment and cognitive capital (including expertise and tenure) on expertise integration is not significant. Finally, expertise integration affects both team size and team effort, which in turn jointly influence task completion. This research contributes to advancing theoretical understanding of the effectiveness of free OSS development as well as providing OSS practitioners with insight into how to leverage social capital for improving the performance of OSS development.},

	abstract = {The success of open source software (OSS) projects depends heavily on the voluntary participation of a large number of developers. To remain sustainable, it is vital for an OSS project community to maintain a critical mass of core developers. Yet, only a small number of participants (identified here as ''joiners'') can successfully socialize themselves into the core developer group. Despite the importance of joiners' socialization behavior, quantitative longitudinal research in this area is lacking. This exploratory study examines joiners' temporal socialization trajectories and their impacts on joiners' status progression. Guided by social resource theory and using the growth mixture modeling (GMM) approach to study 133 joiners in 40 OSS projects, the authors found that these joiners differed in both their initial levels and their growth trajectories of socialization and identified four distinct classes of joiner socialization behavior. They also found that these distinct latent classes of joiners varied in their status progression within their communities. The implications for research and practice are correspondingly discussed.

Behind a successful oss project lies a community of actors, ranging from core developers to passive users, held together by a flexible governance structure and membership, leadership and contribution policies that align their interests. The motivation behind individuals participating in oss projects can be, among others, social, ideological, hedonistic, or signaling, while companies gain from their access to high-quality, innovative projects and an increase in their reputation and visibility. Nowadays many business models rely on oss as a product through the provision of associated services, or in coexistence with proprietary software, hardware, services, or licensing. The numerous oss licenses mainly differ on how they treat derived software: some contain provisions that maintain its availability in open source form while others allow more flexibility. Through its widespread adoption, oss is affecting the software industry, science, engineering, research, teaching, the developing countries, and the society at large through its ability to democratize technology and innovation.},

	abstract = {Over the past few years, open source software (OSS) development has gained a huge popularity and has attracted a large variety of developers. According to software engineering folklore, the architecture and the organization of software depend on the communication patterns of the contributors. Communication patterns among developers influence knowledge sharing among them. Unlike in a formal organization, the communication network structures in an OSS project evolve unrestricted and unplanned. We develop a non-cooperative game-theoretic model to investigate the network formation in an OSS team and to characterize the stable and efficient structures. Developer heterogeneity in the network is incorporated based on their informative value. We find that there may exist several stable structures that are inefficient and there may not always exist a stable structure that is efficient. The tension between the stability and efficiency of structures results from developers acting in their self-interest rather than the group interest. Whenever there is such tension, the stable structure is either underconnected across types or overconnected within type of developers from an efficiency perspective. We further discuss how an administrator can help evolve a stable network into an efficient one. Empirically, we use the latent class model and analyze two real-world OSS projects hosted at SourceForge. For each project, different types of developers and a stable structure are identified, which fits well with the predictions of our model. Overall, our study sheds light on how developer abilities and incentives affect communication network formation in OSS projects. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

This article considers the dynamics of value creation fuelling the proliferation of OSS and examines the business model factors that enable value capture. After interviewing leaders from over 20 OSS firms and organisations through early 2006, we found that three factors were consistently important in defining a vendor's adoption of a given business model: software licence choice, which takes into account intellectual property ownership; management of developer communities; and the unique features of the markets and product categories in which the vendor participates. Considering these factors, we characterise seven business models. One striking finding is that it is rare to find business-model purity. The majority of firms in our sample are pursuing either blended business models or multiple models simultaneously. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

We argue that the type of allegiance the individual holds towards their employing firm and the open source community has a strong influence of how they share knowledge with other community members. We use the examples of two open source software firms in New Zealand to ground the empirical inspiration of our paper and to illustrate our key ideas and arguments. We discuss the knowledge governance challenges imposed by employees' dual allegiance and how managers of open source software firms can balance the demands of the open source community and the interests of the clients.

The HFOSS Project has expanded from its three initial schools, single corporate partner, and single software project into a vibrant community that today includes active faculty participants from eight US colleges and universities (and expressed interest from many more), industry representatives from five IT corporations, and ongoing software-development projects with two local nonprofit organizations and five international FOSS communities.},

	abstract = {The success of a Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) project has been evaluated in the past through the number of commits made to its configuration management system, number of developers and number of users. Most studies, based on a popular FLOSS repository (SourceForge), have concluded that the vast majority of projects are failures. This study's empirical results confirm and expand conclusions from an earlier and more limited work. Not only do projects from different repositories display different process and product characteristics, but a more general pattern can be observed. Projects may be considered as early inceptors in highly visible repositories, or as established projects within desktop-wide projects, or finally as structured parts of FLOSS distributions. These three possibilities are formalized into a framework of transitions between repositories. The framework developed here provides a wider context in which results from FLOSS repository mining can be more effectively presented. Researchers can draw different conclusions based on the overall characteristics studied about an Open Source software project's potential for success, depending on the repository that they mine. These results also provide guidance to OSS developers when choosing where to host their project and how to distribute it to maximize its evolutionary success. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Prior research into open source software (OSS) developer participation has emphasized individuals' motivations for joining these volunteer communities, but it has failed to explain why people stay or leave in the long run. Building upon Lave and Wenger's theory of legitimate peripheral participation (LPP), this paper offers a longitudinal investigation of one OSS community in which sustained participation is hypothesized to be associated with the coevolution of two major elements of LPP theory: "situated learning" (the process of acting knowledgeably and purposefully in the world) and "identity construction" (the process of being identified within the community). To test this hypothesis, data were collected from multiple sources, including online public project documents, electronic mail messages, tracker messages, and log files. Results from qualitative analyses revealed that initial conditions to participate did not effectively predict long-term participation, but that situated learning and identity construction behaviors were positively linked to sustained participation. Furthermore, this study reveals that sustained participants distinguished themselves by consistently engaging in situated learning that both made conceptual (advising others) and practical contributions (improving the code). Implications and future research are discussed. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

However, there is little research exploring the interactions between open source stakeholders and the platform. We believe that the sustainability of the platform crucially depends on financial incentives. While platforms can obtain these incentives through multiple means, in this paper we focus on one form of financial incentives - voluntary monetary donations by open source community members. We report findings from two empirical studies that examine factors that impact donations. Study 1 investigates the factors that cause some community members to donate and not others. We find that the decision to donate is impacted by relational commitment with open source software platform, donation to projects and accepting donations from others. Study 2 examines what drives the level of donation. We find that the length of association with the platform and relational commitment affects donation levels. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {This paper contributes to the open source software (OSS) literature by investigating the likelihood that a participant becomes a project leader. Project leaders are key actors in a virtual community and are crucial to the success of the OSS model. Knowledge of the forces that lead to the emergence of project managers among the multitude of participants is still limited. We aim to fill this gap in the literature by analyzing the association between the roles played by an individual who is registered with a project, and a set of individual-level and project-level characteristics. In line with the theory of occupational choice elaborated by (Lazear, E.P., 2002. Entrepreneurship. NBER Working Paper No. 9109, Cambridge, Mass; Lazear, E.P., 2004. Balanced skills and entrepreneurship, American Economic Review 94, pp. 208-211), we find that OSS project leaders possess diversified skill sets which are needed to select the inputs provided by various participants, motivate contributors, and coordinate their efforts. Specialists, like pure developers, are endowed with more focused skill sets. Moreover, we find that the degree of modularity of the development process is positively associated with the presence of project leaders. That result is consistent with the modern theory of modular production (Baldwin, C.Y., Clark, K.B., 1997. Managing in an age of modularity.

	abstract = {A systems analysis perspective is adopted to examine the critical properties of the Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) mode of innovation, as reflected on the SourceForge platform (SF.net). This approach re-scales March's (1991) framework and applies it to characterize the "innovation system" of a "distributed organization" of interacting agents in a virtual collaboration environment, rather than to innovation within a firm. March (1991) views the process of innovation at the organizational level as the coupling of sub-processes of exploration and exploitation. Correspondingly, the innovation system of the virtual collaboration environment represented by SF.net is an emergent property of two "coupled" processes: one involves the interactions among agents searching the locale for information and knowledge resources to use in designing novel software products (i.e., exploration), and the other involves the mobilization of individuals' capabilities for application in the software development projects that become established on the platform (i.e., exploitation). The micro-dynamics of this system are studied empirically by constructing transition probability matrices representing the movements of 222,835 SF.net users among seven different activity states, which range from "lurking" (not contributing or contributing to projects without becoming a member) to "laboring" (joining one or more projects as members), and to "launching" (founding one or more projects) within each successive 6-month interval. The estimated probabilities are found to form first-order Markov chains describing ergodic processes. This makes it possible the computation of the equilibrium distribution of agents among the states, thereby suppressing transient effects and revealing persisting patterns of project joining and project launching. The latter show the FLOSS innovation process on SF.net to be highly dissipative: a very large proportion of the registered "developers" fail to become even minimally active on the platform. There is nevertheless an active core of mobile project joiners, and a (still smaller) core of project founders who persist in creating new projects. The structure of these groups' interactions (as displayed within the 3-year period examined) is investigated in detail, and it is shown that it would be sufficient to sustain both the exploration and exploitation phases of the platform's global dynamics.

Recently, the use of open source software (OSS) has been proposed as a possible way to address those challenges. OSS provides many benefits, including high-quality software and substantial profits. Nevertheless, OSS has not been effectively utilized in real business. The purpose of this paper is to find what affects the utilization of OSS. For this study, we propose a structural equation model (SEM) to analyze the relationships between the quality factors based on ISO/IEC 9126 and OSS utilization. In addition, we suggest an open source software utilization index (OSSUI) based on the proposed SEM. The results provide us with the controllable feedback information to improve user (programmer) satisfaction during OSS utilization. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

In this paper we explore the process of OSS innovation and highlight the impact of increased competition and different cost structures on innovative activity in the industry, which has been neglected in the literature thus far. In a simple model, we formalize the innovation impact of OSS entry by examining a change in market structure from monopoly to duopoly under the assumption that software producers compete in technology rather than price or quantities. The model takes into account development costs and total cost of ownership, whereby the latter captures items such as network externalities. The paper identifies a pro-innovative effect of both intra-OSS and extra-OSS competition. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {A growing body of literature has explored the motivations for individuals to take part in free and open source software (FOSS), yet how firms participate is largely an unattended research area. Building on information from an extensive dataset of secondary sources and 30 in-depth interviews, I show that de novo  entrants have emerged in conjunction with a changing institutional infrastructure and a more pragmatic attitude toward firms that focus on technological benefits rather than ideology. To understand how these firms try to harness the work of these communities, I use the empirical data to derive a 2*2 matrix of different approaches. The X axis reflects whether or not the firms initiated a new community or relied on communities founded by peers, whereas the Y axis represents the degree of participation of the firm in the community. This taxonomy illustrates how de novo entrants are initiating new forms of communities or joining communities established by peers. This suggests that while many of the central pillars of FOSS remains, de novo entrants have emerged to find new ways of making business resulting in various implications for firm strategies and knowledge disclosure.

	abstract = {The scale of development and deployment of open source software (OSS) in the three Northeast Asian countries-China, Japan, and South Korea-is large enough to be noticed at the global level. OSS has redefined the dynamics of software markets in the three countries and has brought significant structural changes in their software industries. Governments have played a pivotal role in the development of OSS industry in the region. Governments in the three countries have also created impetus for continental collaborations in OSS projects. This paper examines the roles and contributions of governments to the OSS initiative in the three countries in terms of a number of technology visions and goals. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

This manifests itself in the ability of open source communities to encourage critical peer review and the sharing of ideas. When these activities are important, the open source organizational form may do better than a proprietary organizational form. My results suggest why open source is particularly powerful when maintainability of software is critical, and also suggest that the founder of a software project may be more likely to choose open source if there is an existing dominant proprietary software project.

	abstract = {Given that eGovernment is likely to become part of development strategies, the most desirable form of eGovernment is that which promotes the domestic generation of intellectual property or, at least, contributes least to the international intellectual property (IP) imbalance. One way to achieve these ends is to implement eGovernment using free or open source software (FOSS). This will reduce dependence on software owned by major companies in developed countries. It could also promote an IP generating capacity in developing countries. An examination of the status of free or open source software in developing countries in Southeast Asia reveals that governments in these countries are aware of FOSS and wish to foster its use (but face considerable pressure to use proprietary software). This examination also reveals the presence of small but active groups seeking to develop and promote the use of free or open source software. This article is comprised of a discussion of FOSS (including that suitable for eGovernment), an explanation of the importance of FOSS for developing countries, a justification of governments centrality to the introduction of FOSS and a consideration of policies and initiatives undertaken by governments in developing countries in Southeast Asia.

	abstract = {This article considers the implications that the use of free and open-source software in government might have for democracy and public participation. From a constructionist perspective, the democratic effects of non-proprietary software are contingent on how the practice of free and open-source software is discursively represented and constituted as it is translated into new e-government systems. On these premises, an analysis of official discourse and government policy for non-proprietary software suggests that its introduction into government will bring more politics as usual rather than democratisation. Nevertheless, on the basis of an alternative discourse of ethics and freedom evident in the Free Software and Open Source communities, the authors of this paper envisage circumstances in which the discourse and practice of non-proprietary software contribute to opening-up and democratising e-government, by protecting and extending transparency and accountability in e-governments and by offering scope for technology to be shaped by citizens and associations as well as by administrators and private interests.

	abstract = {Societies often create smaller subsets or communities that connect with one another for commerce and intellectual exchange over mutual interests. In science and engineering, the need for communication among researchers is often hampered by artificial barriers of university politics, economic market forces, and the sheer momentum of an academic reward structure that values individual discovery over joint development. Recent initiatives have attempted to reduce some of these barriers, encouraging collaborative multidisciplinary research programs. Through this effort, the processes have been studied that lead to the successful foundation of new communities. The current focus has led to the creation of Insight, a project for open source image processing software development, along with the Insight Software Consortium, which includes more than 17 participating universities and commercial institutions. The initial emphasis of this effort is to provide public software tools for 3D segmentation and deformable and rigid registration, capable of analyzing the head and neck anatomy of the Visible Human Project data. The eventual goal is to provide the cornerstone of a self-sustaining software community in 3D, 4D, and higher dimensional data analysis. Ultimately, this is intended to be a public software resource that will serve as a foundation for future medical image research.},

Previous studies primarily touched on user activities in a few well-known open source projects but lack the empirical data to represent important issues facing the open source development community. This paper reports on a survey-based study that investigated user collaboration in open source development. Among the many interesting results, we found open source users themselves to be very experienced software developers. They are highly motivated to make their own contributions, work closely with developers on various tasks, and use electronic communication tools extensively. Users with different development experience and contributing to different category of projects tend to exhibit different motivations and behaviours. These findings confirm the differences between traditional and open source user collaboration and their implications for future open source evolution and management are given and discussed in this paper.

First, the movement took off through the activity of a community that did not follow profit motivations. Second, a hierarchical co-ordination emerged without proprietary rights. Third, Open Source systems diffused in environments dominated by proprietary standard. The paper shows that recent developments in the theory of diffusion of technologies with network externality may help to explain these phenomena. A simulation model based on heterogeneous agents is developed in order to identify the relevant factors in the diffusion of the technology. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {This study examines the impact of technological acquisitions on contributions to firm-sponsored community-based open-source software (OSS). We distinguish between internal contributors affiliated with target firms and external contributors from the community, and examine how they respond to technological acquisitions differently. Theoretically, we examine how technological acquisition influences contributors' uncertainty about project quality through a signaling effect and influences their uncertainty about project continuity through potential resource combination. We connect uncertainties with contributors' motivations to theorize their responses to acquisitions. Empirically, we find that external contributors contribute more actively to both target firms' sponsored projects and other projects in the OSS community after acquisitions, which contrast with the adverse effects of acquisitions observed in traditional corporate innovation. Although internal contributors reduce contributions to target firms' sponsored projects after acquisitions, they increase contributions to other OSS projects in the community. We also find that the acquirer's OSS experience and the project similarity between the acquirer and the target drive both external and internal contributors to shift their development efforts to the acquirer's projects and other projects in the OSS community. By examining these effort shifts in OSS contributions, our study generates unique theoretical insights about the impacts of technological acquisitions in the OSS context and important practical implications for acquirers, target firms, and the general OSS community.},

With the lens of the integrative model of trust (IMoT), hypotheses regarding interactions between trust and community citizenship behaviors (CCBs – as OSSPC participating activities) are developed. Both a qualitative study and a quantitative study are conducted, and data analysis confirms both the Trust→CCBs and the CCBs→Trust hypotheses along the time dimension, revealing CCBs-Trust interactions as a mechanism for maintaining sustained community participation. Further, while it is found that CCBs have an accumulative overall positive impact on trust, alternating positive and negative impacts of CCBs on trust over time are identified. In addition, a delayed impact is also identified in the Trust→CCBs relationship. These findings are explained from several theoretical perspectives, which provide directions for future research and help community management to maintain sustained participation.},

	abstract = {Image‐based water level measurements offer data quality assurance through visual verification that no other method can provide. GaugeCam Remote Image Manager‐Educational 2 (GRIME2) is a mature, open‐source commercial friendly software application that automatically detects and measures water level in laboratory and field settings. The software relies on a dedicated target background for water line detection and image calibration. The system detects the change in pixel gray scale values associated with the intersection of the water level at the target surface. Fiducials on the target background are used to precisely create a pixel to real world coordinate transfer matrix and to correct for camera movement. The presented software package implements the algorithms and automates the water level measurement process, annotation of images with result overlays, creation of animations, and output of results to files that can be further analyzed in a spreadsheet or with R or Python. These GRIME2 features are illustrated using imagery from a coastal marsh field site. Tradeoffs between workflow and algorithm complexity and ease of use are discussed and future improvements are identified with the intention that this Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable‐inspired software can be adopted, modified and improved by the user community. While image resolution, quality and other factors associated with field deployment (e.g., water surface roughness, sun glare, shadows, and bio‐fouling) will have an impact on measurement quality, previous controlled laboratory testing that did not manifest these issues showed potential for accuracy of ±3 mm (Gilmore et al., 2013, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2013.05.011).},

However, this research has focused mainly on social/cultural factors, neglecting the software tools and infrastructure. To shed light on how OSS tools and infrastructure might factor into OSS barriers to entry, we conducted two studies: (1) a field study with five teams of software professionals, who worked through five use cases to analyze the tools and infrastructure used in their OSS projects; and (2) a diary study with 22 newcomers (9 women and 13 men) to investigate whether the barriers matched the ones identified by the software professionals. The field study produced a bleak result: software professionals found gender biases in 73 percent of all the newcomer barriers they identified. Further, the diary study confirmed these results: Women newcomers encountered gender biases in 63 percent of barriers they faced. Fortunately, many kinds of barriers and biases revealed in these studies could potentially be ameliorated through changes to the OSS software environments and tools.},

We conducted a policy Delphi study involving 24 FLOSS community managers from 22 different communities. Our panel identified 16 concerns related to managing EV in FLOSS, which we ranked by prevalence. We also describe 65 practices for managing EV in FLOSS. Almost three-quarters of these practices are used by at least three community managers. We report these practices using a systematic presentation that includes context, relationships between practices, and concerns that they address. These findings provide a coherent framework that can help FLOSS community managers to better manage episodic contributors.},

Network connections provide access to external knowledge in the community; the absorption and transfer of this new knowledge require appropriate internal knowledge and developer roles. With longitudinal data collected from 4,518 open source software development projects hosted at SourceForge, the authors show that knowledge breadth (depth) helps with the absorption of external knowledge achieved from network depth (breadth), but it inhibits the absorption of external knowledge obtained from network breadth (depth). Further, developer roles (e.g., bridge members, role diversity) can mitigate the negative consequences of suboptimal combinations and facilitate effective transfers of absorbed external knowledge across and within projects. These findings provide important theoretical and managerial implications for managing network connections, knowledge, and developer roles in open source software communities.},

In this paper, we describe how data science, which combines computer programming, domain knowledge, and analytic skillsets to scientifically extract insights from data, can be used to help meet the growing demand of analytic needs across an organization's value chain. This is done through the illustration of an applied data science initiative to a strategic sourcing problem via the use of open-source technology. In doing so, we contribute to the growing data science literature by demonstrating the application of unique data science capabilities. Moreover, the paper provides a tutorial on how to use a specific R package along with an actual case in which that package use used.},

Identifying early success is important for catalyzing growth in OSS markets. However, previous OSS research has not examined early product success dynamics and assumes adoption to be a continuous process. We propose OSS takeoff in adoptions as a measure of eventual product success. Takeoff is a nonlinear inflection point separating the early development from the growth phase in the product lifecycle. Using arguments from the signaling literature, we propose that community activities send signals about product quality and reduce information asymmetry faced by potential adopters of OSS products. Estimating a Cox proportional hazard model using a large sample of OSS products from SourceForge, we find that takeoff times are significantly associated with signals of quality deficiency and improvement. Further, we find that target audience and product innovativeness moderate this relationship.},

Faced with such challenges of increasingly complicated software design, large-scale refactoring that radically restructures the architecture of the software can be one of the solutions. In this study, we investigate and illustrate how OSS contributors accomplish large-scale refactoring in OSS development in which there is no significant corporate participation. In our observations, as the costs of coordination requirements rise, OSS contributors increase coordination capability to manage dependencies among multiple sources during the large-scale refactoring periods. Our findings suggest that OSS contributors episodically use traditional coordination mechanisms during the large-scale refactoring periods. Our study provides actionable insights into how OSS contributors make joint action that cannot be achieved by individuals working independently and use the provision of rewards in order to achieve a shared, explicit goal of large-scale refactoring.},

However, these infrequent volunteers contribute to the sustainability of FLOSS projects, and should ideally be encouraged to continue participating, even if they cannot be persuaded to contribute regularly. Infrequent contributions are part of a trend which has been widely observed in other sectors of volunteering, where it has been termed “episodic volunteering” (EV). Previous FLOSS research has focused on the Onion model, differentiating core and peripheral developers, with the latter considered as a homogeneous group. We argue this is too simplistic, given the size of the periphery group and the myriad of valuable activities they perform beyond coding. Our exploratory qualitative survey of 13 FLOSS communities investigated what episodic volunteering looks like in a FLOSS context. EV is widespread in FLOSS communities, although not specifically managed. We suggest several recommendations for managing EV based on a framework drawn from the volunteering literature. Also, episodic volunteers make a wide range of value-added contributions other than code, and they should neither be expected nor coerced into becoming habitual volunteers.},

To date, researchers have examined code reuse in OSS largely from the perspective of leaders. We show why followers must be considered as well. "Followers" are people who have had previous contacts with an individual from another project and who continue to associate with him or her. We consider two types of followers: developers (those directly involved in software development) and observers (those indirectly involved in it). We conduct a series of empirical investigations by using a longitudinal dataset of OSS projects hosted in GitHub, along with a survey and qualitative data. We find that followership can affect code reuse, but the effect depends on the nature of the follower (developer or observer). Overall, our study suggests that followership is important for code reuse in OSS because it enables participants to learn, and learning promotes code reuse.},

	doi = {10.1016/j.ijinfomgt.2018.11.015},
	abstract = {Context Open Source Software (OSS) development is a knowledge focused activity which relies heavily on contributors who can be volunteers or paid workers and are geographically distributed. While working on OSS projects contributors acquire project related individualistic knowledge and gain experience and skills, which often remains unshared with others and is usually lost once contributors leave a project. All software development organisations face the problem of knowledge loss as employees leave, but this situation is exasperated in OSS projects where most contributors are volunteers with largely unpredictable engagement durations. Contributor turnover is inevitable due to the transient nature of OSS project workforces causing knowledge loss, which threatens the overall sustainability of OSS projects and impacts negatively on software quality and contributor productivity. Objective: The objective of this work is to deeply and systematically investigate the phenomenon of knowledge loss due to contributor turnover in OSS projects as presented in the state-of-the-art literature and to synthesise the information presented on the topic. Furthermore, based on the learning arising from our investigation it is our intention to identify mechanisms to reduce the overall effects of knowledge loss in OSS projects. Methodology: We use the snowballing methodology to identify the relevant literature on knowledge loss due to contributor turnover in OSS projects. This robust methodology for a literature review includes research question, search strategy, inclusion, exclusion, quality criteria, and data synthesis. The search strategy, and inclusion, exclusions and quality criteria are applied as a part of snowballing procedure. Snowballing is considered an efficient and reliable way to conduct a systematic literature review, providing a robust alternative to mechanically searching individual databases for given topics. Result: Knowledge sharing in OSS projects is abundant but there is no evidence of a formal strategy or practice to manage knowledge. Due to the dynamic and diverse nature of OSS projects, knowledge management is considered a challenging task and there is a need for a proactive mechanism to share knowledge in the OSS community for knowledge to be reused in the future by the OSS project contributors. From the collection of papers found using snowballing, we consolidated various themes on knowledge loss due to contributor turnover in OSS projects and identified 11 impacts due to knowledge loss in OSS projects, and 10 mitigations to manage with knowledge loss in OSS projects. Conclusion: In this paper, we propose future research directions to investigate integration of proactive knowledge retention practices with the existing OSS practices to reduce the current knowledge loss problem. We suggest that there is insufficient attention paid to KM in general in OSS, in particular there would appear to an absence of proactive measures to reduce the potential impact of knowledge loss. We also propose the need for a KM evaluation metric in OSS projects, similar to the ones that evaluate health of online communities, which should help to inform potential consumers of the OSS of the KM status on a project, something that is not existent today.},

There is no such impact for firms without this ecosystem of complements. Dynamic panel analysis, instrumental variables, and a variety of robustness checks are used to address measurement error concerns and to add support for a more causal interpretation of the results. For firms with an ecosystem of complements, a 1\% increase in the use of nonpecuniary OSS leads to an increase in value-added productivity of between 0.002\% and 0.008\%. This effect is smaller for larger firms, and the results indicate that prior research underestimates the amount of IT firms use.},

First, a modified non-homogeneous Poisson process model is developed in an imperfect debugging environment by assuming that new faults may be introduced in fault detection and correction process. Then, the detection rate and remaining faults of previous release are considered in the modeling and analysis of reliability of the current release. The optimal version-update time is computed using multi-attribute utility theory for these software systems, considering the two main utility factors, namely, rapid release strategy and level of reliability. The proposed models are verified on real data sets and are compared with other existing models. The proposed decision models may be helpful for the software developing management to decide the optimal version update time for open source software.},

	abstract = {Corporate involvement in open source software (OSS) communities has increased substantially in recent years. Often this takes the form of company employees devoting their time to contribute code to the efforts of projects in these communities. Ideology has traditionally served to motivate, coordinate, and guide volunteer contributions to OSS communities. As employees represent an increasing proportion of the participants in OSS communities, the role of OSS ideology in guiding their commitment and code contributions is unknown. In this research, we argue that OSS ideology misfit has important implications for companies and the OSS communities to which their employees contribute, since their engagement in such communities is not necessarily voluntary. We conceptualize two different types of misfit: OSS ideology under-fit, whereby an employee embraces an OSS ideology more than their coworkers or OSS community do, and OSS ideology over-fit, whereby an employee perceives that their coworkers or OSS community embrace the OSS ideology more strongly than the employee does. To develop a set of hypotheses about the implications of these two types of misfit for employee commitment to the company and commitment to the OSS community, we draw on self-determination theory. We test the hypotheses in a field study of 186 employees who participate in an OSS community. We find that OSS ideology under-fit impacts the company and the community in the same way: it decreases employee commitment to the company and commitment to the OSS community. In contrast, we find that OSS ideology over-fit increases commitment to the company but decreases commitment to the OSS community. Finally, we find that employees’ commitment to their company reinforces the impact of their commitment to the OSS community in driving ongoing code contributions. This provides a holistic view of OSS ideology and its impacts among an increasingly pervasive yet understudied type of participant in OSS research. It provides insights for companies that are considering assigning their employees to work in OSS communities as well as for OSS communities that are partnering with these companies.},

A series of hypotheses about how distributed innovation (independent variables) influences knowledge sharing (mediating variable) and then affects the performance of OSS projects (dependent variable) are tested and approved. On the one side, we argue that developers will actively affect knowledge sharing in terms of participative motivation, social network and organisational culture. On the other hand, users may also affect the knowledge sharing when considering innovation willingness and capacity. It is interesting to find that social network is the most important factor in Chinese cases.

In this study, we develop a theoretical model and conduct an empirical analysis in a large online open source community. The results show that a developer's reputation level is determined by his or her 1) coding quality, 2) the deviation of the commitment behavior, 3) community experience, and 4) collaboration experience.

Our model was built upon the other two literatures, and it was structured as a multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) model which contains 12 variables grouped in four risk categories: financial, organisational, end user, and technical ones. We illustrated its utilisation in the domain of information technology service management (ITSM) FLOSS tools. Hence, our model contributes to the FLOSS literature with the inclusion of the risk management approach and to the FLOSS evaluation-selection praxis with the provision of an innovative and essential risk-based model.},

In particular, we analyze the impact of strategic decisions taken by IBM around the mid-2000s, such as its announcement that it will not assert its patents against the OSS community and its creation of a patent commons. These decisions formed a coherent IP strategy in support of OSS. We find that IBM's actions stimulated new OSS product introductions by entrepreneurial firms and that their impact is increasing in the cumulativeness of innovation in the market and the extent to which patent ownership in the market is concentrated.},

	abstract = {A diverse range of innovative solutions based on Free-and-Open-Source Software (FOSS) have been developed for marginalized communities in developing countries. It has been suggested that such small-scale and home-grown solutions (e.g. mobile phone apps), usually championed by social enterprises (SEs), are more likely to introduce pro-poor change than infrastructure heavy ICr initiatives designed by state and other international actors. In the Indian context, FOSS-based social innovations (Sis) introduced by SEs are helping poor communities tackle previously thought-to-be unresolvable socio-economic problems. An interesting question, therefore, would be: in what ways is the SE model and approach uniquely equipped to develop FOSS-based Sis that deliver pro-poor change? The empirical component of the research attempts to shed light on this question by uncovering the nuts and bolts of the development methodology deployed by an SE during the coding and launch of an FOSS-based SI. Findings highlight the significant role of the founder's social vision; the challenges of accurately capturing and translating to software developers the nature and nuance of social problems; and, the incumbent issues in putting together a methodology that creates active user engagement throughout the software development process, overcoming difficult barriers such as language and culture.},

	abstract = {The rising participation of for-profit corporations in the development of open source software raises the question of why corporations are motivated toward this engagement. The increased participation is an observable phenomenon; many researchers and practitioners assume that the practice of community sharing does not improve the bottom line, but rather believe the practice is altruistic in nature. Our intuition is that participation offers tangible and intangible benefits to corporate participants. We show this by exploring a variety of models in game theory and use game theory as a methodological lens to explain the rationality of corporate participation in open source software development. Since game theory has evolved to include rational- and emotional-based reasons, we explore such lenses as cooperative games, metagames, coopetition, and Drama Theory. Our research question, "Why do for-profit corporations participate in the development of open source software?" was broad enough to adopt several useful perspectives to understand our data. One useful lens was game theory. In this article, we examine interview responses and field study data from corporate members of open source communities to determine how they justify devoting time and effort to community engagement. Our study makes a contribution to open source software literature by revealing that numerous rational and emotional reasons exist for corporate participation in open source software development.},

When open source software libraries are used, software resources may be linked directly or indirectly with multiple open source licenses giving rise to potential license incompatibilities. Adequate support in license use is vital in order to avoid such violations and address how diverse licenses should be handled. In the current work we investigate software licensing giving a critical and comparative overview of existing assistive approaches and tools. These approaches are centered on three main categories: license information identification from source code and binaries, software metadata stored in code repositories, and license modeling and associated reasoning actions. We also give a formalization of the license compatibility problem and demonstrate the role of existing approaches in license use decisions.},

We show that, contrary to standard predictions, additional contribution to the public good by the government or a new market entrant can lead to higher investments of all incumbent firms, that is, a crowding-in effect. This result occurs if the investment cost function is superadditive. We find that government contribution leads to larger crowding-in effects than subsidizing market entry if the price elasticity of demand with respect to the private good is large relative to the one with respect to the public good.

	abstract = {The open source model of software development has become an attractive alternative to the traditional proprietary approach. However, the incomplete understanding of the phenomenon has continued to prompt researchers to investigate factors that could increase the use and popularity of open source software (OSS). While a key antecedent for OSS use highlighted in the previous literature is the software quality, we propose that effective online user support is also necessary to increase its popularity. As an understudied area, this paper seeks to understand the role of online user support networks in facilitating OSS use. Based on the network embeddedness theory, it suggests that properties of the user support network i.e., variation in structural and junctional embeddedness, measured as the in-degree and betweenness centralizations respectively, would affect OSS popularity in terms of the number of active users and downloads of the software. Testing on a sample of 176 OSS projects from Sourceforge.net, we showed that a negative quadratic relationship exists between the variation in structural embeddedness of the OSS user support network and the software popularity. Further, as hypothesized, the variation in junctional embeddedness was found to positively impact the OSS popularity. Theoretical and practical implications of the study are discussed.},

In doing so, it offers new insights into the association between open innovation and diversification. We rely on arguments inspired by the literature and evidence collected through interviews with OSS SMEs' top managers to investigate factors that favor or hinder within-industry diversification. First, in line with the mainstream diversification literature, we focus attention on the role of firm size. Second, in the spirit of the open innovation research, we concentrate on the mechanisms that OSS SMEs put in place to get access to the external resources of the OSS community. Econometric evidence on 100 European OSS SMEs shows that firm size is negatively associated to within-industry diversification, while OSS SMEs that have contributed to a larger number of OSS projects have a more diversified portfolio of software products. Furthermore, we provide preliminary evidence that the practice of authorizing firm programmers to contribute autonomously to OSS projects of their own choice during working hours may be positively associated to within-industry diversification only if OSS SMEs possess adequate internal technological resources.

	abstract = {Institutional theory offers a very powerful lens to understand and explain societal phenomena. In the context of innovation and technology, this perspective provides insights that complement the understandings derived from a focus on just technology or economics. Adopting this standpoint, this paper examines the emergence of the organizational field of open source software as a response to the norms of propriety software that were unacceptable to many passionate software researchers and programmers. 
The context of software product development has some unique characteristics that separates it from other industries. First, software products are information goods. In general, information goods have very high fixed costs of development and low marginal costs of reproduction which often leads to market inefficiencies. Second, IP protection has the potential to exaggerate the problem of market inefficiencies. Third, software is an input and also an output of the production function and IP protection has the potential to make the cost of software products prohibitively high. Fourth, the Internet has created the potential for the larger society to participate in the production process. These features of the software industry influence the dynamics among software professionals and orgnizations creating a distinctive context which can be better understood through the lens of institutional theory.
According to institution theory, organizations seek to obtain legitimacy, which goes beyond technological or economic performance, by conforming to institutional requirements in a context. There are three forms of legitimacy. Pragmatic legitimacy, based on regulative requirements, is acquired by complying with the legal and regulative rules in the organizational field. Moral legitimacy, based on normative requirements, is obtained by ensuring that the activities of an organization promote societal good or welfare. Finally, cognitive legitimacy is derived from the extent to which the activities of an organization mesh with the taken-for-granted norms in the larger context. While institutions are normally sustained for long, they do experience change. Institutional change is driven by institutional entrepreneurs who create, maintain, and disrupt the practices that are considered legitimate, and challenge the boundaries that demarcate one field from another.
The findings of this study capture the intricate dynamics and interactions among institutional requirements, software professionals and organizations that led to the norms of the institution of propriety software being challenged. It suggests that the process of institutional change can lead to the creation of a new alternate organizational field leaving the original field largely untouched. This paper contributes to the understanding of the software industry and suggests implications for other industries that produce information goods.},

Developer email messages were collected from two FLOSS projects with different development statuses, and their content was analyzed to identify frequently used group maintenance tactics. We then compared the group maintenance tactics used in the two projects, finding differences that reflect changes in the project work practices. Our work theoretically contributes to FLOSS research and has practical implications for FLOSS practitioners. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

This model extends that proposed by Goodhue (1995), in two ways: (i) a key role is played by the manager in designing the technology and in performing the task in question. Both of these aspects can be modified, depending on the evaluation made of a series of characteristics (or dimensions) inherent to the model. (ii) The free dissemination of the source code of the application not only allows the transfer of knowledge, but also creates virtual communities which, through collaborative work and the exchange of experiences, can achieve a better fit of the technology to the task at hand. This model has been introduced in several departments at the University of Granada (Spain), and evaluated in terms of the results obtained at both individual and group levels. This evaluation was conducted by means of in-depth interviews with departmental managers. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Many organisations are dependent upon long-term sustainable software systems and associated communities. In this paper we consider long-term sustainability of Open Source software communities in Open Source software projects involving a fork. There is currently a lack of studies in the literature that address how specific Open Source software communities are affected by a fork. We report from a study aiming to investigate the developer community around the LibreOffice project, which is a fork from the OpenOffice.org project. In so doing, our analysis also covers the OpenOffice.org project and the related Apache OpenOffice project. The results strongly suggest a long-term sustainable LibreOffice community and that there are no signs of stagnation in the LibreOffice project 33 months after the fork. Our analysis provides details on developer communities for the LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice projects and specifically concerning how they have evolved from the OpenOffice.org community with respect to project activity, developer commitment, and retention of committers over time. Further, we present results from an analysis of first hand experiences from contributors in the LibreOffice community. Findings from our analysis show that Open Source software communities can outlive Open Source software projects and that LibreOffice is perceived by its community as supportive, diversified, and independent. The study contributes new insights concerning challenges related to long-term sustainability of Open Source software communities. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Sequences of relational events underlie much empirical research on organizational relations. Yet relational event data are typically aggregated and dichotomized to derive networks that can be analyzed with specialized statistical methods. Transforming sequences of relational events into binary network ties entails two main limitations: the loss of information about the order and number of events that compose each tie and the inability to account for compositional changes in the set of actors and/or recipients. In this article, we introduce a newly developed class of statistical models that enables researchers to exploit the full information contained in sequences of relational events. We propose an extension of the models to cater for sequences of relational events linking different sets of actors. We illustrate the empirical application of relational event models in the context of a free/open source software project with the aim to explain the level of effort produced by contributors to the project. We offer guidance in the interpretation of model parameters by characterizing the social processes underlying organizational problem solving. We discuss the applicability of relational events models in organizational research. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

In doing so, we consider the content of potential information flows within the network and argue that the impact of network structure on technology adoption can be better understood by separately examining its impact from two groups of alters-current and potential adopters. We contend that increased network centrality and closure among current adopters contribute positively to adoption, whereas the same among potential adopters has exactly the opposite impact. Accordingly, we propose a dynamic view where the fraction of current adopters in the network positively moderates the impact of network centrality and closure. We empirically test the theory by analyzing the adoption of software version control technology by open source software projects. Our results strongly support the theory. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Open source software is becoming increasingly prominent, and the economic structure of open-source development is changing. In recent years, firms motivated by revenues from software services markets have become the primary contributors to open-source development. In this paper we study the role of services in open source software development and explore the choice between open source and proprietary software. Specifically, our economic model jointly analyzes the investment and pricing decisions of the originators of software and of subsequent open-source contributors. We find that if a contributor is efficient in software development, the originator should adopt an open-source strategy, allowing the contributor to offer higher total quality and capture the higher end of the market while the originator focuses on providing software services to lower end consumers. Conversely, if the contributor is not efficient in development, the originator should adopt a proprietary software development strategy, gaining revenue from software sales and squeezing the contributor out of the services market. In certain cases an increase in originator development efficiency can result in increased contributor profits. Finally, we find that, somewhat counterintuitively, an increase in contributor development efficiency can reduce overall social welfare. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

The current findings support the argument that OSS-adopting organizations can be clearly distinguished from their non-adopting counterparts in terms of their availability of internal OSS human capital, accessibility to external OSS human capital, organizational size, IT department size, and criticality of IT operation.

It argues that collaborative FOSS production by volunteer software developers is a species of critical social practice in Boltanski and Chiapello's sense: rooted in resistance to capitalist social relations, and yet also a source of values that justify the new routes to profitability associated with contemporary network capitalism. Advanced via collective projects that are sustained by hacker norms and privately legislated 'copyleft' law, the FOSS ethos is apparently antithetical to private property-based accumulation. Yet it can be shown to embody the 'new spirit of capitalism' in its most distilled form; moreover FOSS developers have instituted new forms of property and new modes of profit creation around software that are in the process of being adapted for use in other economic sectors. Meanwhile, the private law constraints on profit-seeking that have emerged from the FOSS movement are counteracting some of the social pathologies that accompany network capitalism only to consolidate others. The paper concludes by identifying likely bases for a renewal of critique given these realities.},

The authors interviewed the CIO, or equivalent position, at 17 not-for-profit and public hospitals across the US. Interviews described the state of OSS use in hospitals. Specifically, general OSS applications were widely used by IT professionals. In addition, hospitals using OSS HIT still relied heavily on vendor support. In terms of why decisions arose to use OSS HIT, several hospitals using OSS HIT noted the cost advantages.

Following a cohort of OSS programmers over a six-year period, they empirically examine the wages and OSS performance of participants in three of the foremost OSS projects operating within the Apache Software Foundation. Controlling for individual characteristics and other wage-related factors, their findings reveal that credentials earned through a merit-based ranking system are associated with as much as an 18\% increase in wages.

We test our predictions using a sample of 5,307 open source projects hosted at SourceForge. Their results suggest the most important factor determining a new project's license choice is the type of license chosen by existing projects that are socially closer to it in its interproject social network. Moreover, we find that prior adopters of a particular license are more infectious in their influence on the license choice of a new project as their size and performance rankings increase. Finally, they find a project manager is more likely to adopt a particular license type when his or her project occupies a similar social role as other projects that have adopted the same license.},

We approach these adoption challenges as a problem of gaining support for organizational innovation. Through a mixed-method research design consisting of qualitative interviews and a survey of employees of a large telecommunications firm, we find that the organizational innovation to commercially engage in OSS has different impacts on technical and administrative dimensions of different job roles. Accordingly, individuals enacting different job roles are -- on average -- more or less well aligned with the OSS practice and OSS processes per se. We find that individual-level attributes can counterbalance the job role changes that weaken support for adopting OSS, while perceived organizational commitment has no effect. Suggestions for PCSS firms are presented and implications for innovation literature are discussed. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

This paper proposes a framework for evaluating the quality and functionality of open source software systems. The name of the framework is EFFORT (Evaluation Framework for Free/Open souRce projecTs). It supports the evaluation of product quality, community trustworthiness and product attractiveness. EFFORT is a useful tool for evaluating and selecting an open source software system. It may significantly reduce the amount of negotiation conducted among an enterprise's members and reduce the time and cost required for gathering and interpreting data. The EFFORT framework also considers the users' opinions by introducing relevance markers associated with the metrics and questions in the data aggregation process.},

	abstract = {University College London's Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering (CEGE) offers a number of Masters programmes in topics related to Geomatics, including Surveying, Hydrographic Surveying, Remote Sensing and Geographical Information Science. Data management, and in particular the technology and applications of Spatial Databases, forms a key part of the curriculum on these courses. Interest in Spatial Databases is, however, more widespread - especially with the increasing understanding of the relevance of geospatial techniques to fields as diverse as anthropology and architecture. This article describes the development and evaluation of a self-paced hands-on course on Databases and Spatial Databases for CEGE students, presented to students to complement and enhance in-class teaching. The article focuses on both pedagogical elements of self-paced learning and the suitability of Free and Open Source Software and Open Data (PostgreSQL/PostGIS, Quantum GIS, Open Street Map) for the Spatial Databases curriculum. The resulting material was evaluated by a cohort of 25 students in 2010, and their feedback (very positive) and the overall results provide an interesting insight into suitable methods to employ when teaching technical subjects to a cohort having differing background skill levels.

Although researchers have studied some predictors of OSS project performance, there is a lack of empirical work that studies the impact of project capabilities on the performance of OSS projects. Therefore, this paper studies project capabilities as potential predictors of OSS project performance. The data, gathered from 607 OSS projects over time (in two snap-shots), were consistent with Dynamic Capability Theory (DCT). In other words, the results showed that in order to achieve higher project performance, OSS projects need to have strong capabilities in terms of proactive and efficient defect-removal as well as proactive and efficient functionality-enhancement. The implications of these results for the OSS research community are discussed, followed by recommendations for OSS practitioners. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Many researchers have pointed out that the open source movement is an interesting phenomenon that is difficult to explain with conventional economic theories. However, while there is no shortage on research on individuals' motivation for contributing to open source, few have investigated the commercial companies' motivations for doing the same. A case study was conducted at three different companies from the IT service industry, to investigate three possible drivers: sale of complimentary services, innovation and opensourcing (outsourcing). We offer three conclusions. First, we identified three main drivers for contributing to open source, which are (a) selling complimentary services, (b) building greater innovative capability and (c) cost reduction through opensourcing to an external community. Second, while previous research has documented that the most important driver is selling complimentary services, we found that this picture is too simple. Our evidence points to a broader set of motivations, in the sense that all our cases exhibit combinations of the three drivers. Finally, our findings suggest that there might be a shift in how commercial companies view open source software. The companies interviewed have all expressed a moral obligation to contribute to open source. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

By evaluating some of the well known FOSS anti-filtering packages used by Iran's digital community, this study found that despite the success of FOSS in combating filtering and state censorship, the majority of these software packages were not designed to meet the needs of Internet users. In addition, these software packages do not meet the level of sophistication used by authorities to filter the content of the Net. Therefore, this study offers a new model that takes into account not only the existing level of the Internet infrastructure but also the growing number of Internet users demanding more effective FOSS packages for faster access to uncensored information while maintaining anonymity.},

	abstract = {Open-source software development is the next stage in the evolution of product development, particularly software products. Compared with the prevailing proprietary approaches, open-source software products are developed by co-opting external developers and prospective users. Although a core group of developers might still play a key role in the initial design and development, a notable aspect of the open-source software paradigm is the role of peripheral developers in the enhancement and popularization of the product. Peripheral developers are not formal members of the core development team. They voluntarily contribute their time and creative talent in improving the quality of the product or in popularizing the product through word-of-mouth advocacy. As volunteers, they are not subject to the traditional hierarchical controls, nor are they contractually obligated. Peripheral developers represent a novel and unique aspect of open-source software development, and there is a greater interest in tapping their potential. However, there has been limited evidence about how and when their participation has beneficial impacts. We examine how peripheral developers contribute to product quality and diffusion by utilizing longitudinal data on 147 open-source software products. Hierarchical linear modeling analysis indicates that peripheral developers make significant contributions to product quality and diffusion, especially on projects that are in the more mature stages of product development.

	abstract = {Organizations and individuals can use open source software (OSS) for free, they can study its internal workings, and they can even fix it or modify it to make it suit their particular needs. These attributes make OSS an enticing technological choice for a company. Unfortunately, because most enterprises view technology as a proprietary differentiating element of their operation, little is known about the extent of OSS adoption in industry and the key drivers behind adoption decisions. In this article we examine factors and behaviors associated with the adoption of OSS and provide empirical findings through data gathered from the US Fortune-1000 companies. The data come from each company's web browsing and serving activities, gathered by sifting through more than 278 million web server log records and analyzing the results of thousands of network probes. We show that the adoption of OSS in large US companies is significant and is increasing over time through a low-churn transition, advancing from applications to platforms. Its adoption is a pragmatic decision influenced by network effects. It is likelier in larger organizations and those with many less productive employees, and is associated with IT and knowledge-intensive work and operating efficiencies. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

With dual licensing, a firm releases the same software product under both a traditional proprietary license and an open source one. We show that the decision to employ a dual licensing strategy occurs whenever the feedbacks of the open source community are valuable enough compared to the quality of the software that the firm is able to develop in-house. Our analysis points to the central role of an appropriate managing of OS licenses in order to balance the pros and cons of "going open source" and to make this versioning strategy viable for software vendors; our analysis also suggests a possible explanation for the observed proliferation of open source licenses.

This paper reports on attitudes towards Open Source software within that sector. Our results show a high level of acceptance of Open Source products with large, well established communities, and not only at the level of the operating system. Control over the software is seen as fundamentally important. Other key perceptions with Open Source are an easing of long-term maintenance problems and ready availability of support. The classical strengths of Open Source, namely mass inspection, ease of conducting trials, longevity and source code access for debugging, were at the forefront of thinking. However, there was an acknowledgement that more guidelines are needed for assessing Open Source software and incorporating it into products. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

The proposed model provides a useful decision support tool for assessing and proactively designing interventions targeted at successful OSS adoption and diffusion. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {Many successful open-source projects have been developed by programmers who were employed by firms but worked on open-source projects on the side because of economic incentives like career improvement benefits. Such side work may be a good thing for the employing firms, too, if they get some strategic value from the open-source software and if the productivity of the programmers on these projects improves through learning-by-doing effects. However, the programmers may work more or less on these projects than what is best for the firms. To manage the programmers' efforts, the firms set appropriate employment policies and incentives. These policies and career concerns then together govern the programmers' effort allocation between the open-source and proprietary projects. We examine this relationship using a variant of the principal/agent model. We derive and characterize optimal employment contracts and show that firms either offer a bonus for only one of the two projects or do not offer any bonuses. However, if attractive alternate employment opportunities are available, they change their strategy and may offer bonuses for both projects simultaneously. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

This paper seeks to identify how organizations adopt OSS, classify the literature according to these ways of adopting OSS, and with a focus on software development evaluate the research on adoption of OSS in organizations. Based on the systematic literature review method, the authors reviewed publications from 24 journals and seven conference and workshop proceedings, published between 1998 and 2008. From a population of 24,289 papers, the authors identified 112 papers that provide empirical evidence on how organizations actually adopt OSS. The authors show that adopting OSS involves more than simply using OSS products. The authors moreover provide a classification framework consisting of six distinctly different ways in which organizations adopt OSS. The authors find that existing research on OSS adoption does not sufficiently describe the context of the organizations studied, and it fails to benefit fully from related research fields.},

	abstract = {Traditionally the protection of intellectual property is regarded as a precondition for value capture. The rise of open source (OS) software and OS tangible products, so-called open design, has challenged this understanding. Openness is often regarded as a dichotomous variable (open-source vs closed-source) and it is assumed that online developer communities demand full opening of the product's source. In this paper we will explore openness as a gradual and multi-dimensional concept. We carried out an Internet survey (N = 270) among participants of 20 open design communities in the domain of IT hardware and consumer electronics. We find that open design projects pursue complex strategies short of complete openness and that communities value openness of software more highly than openness of hardware. Our findings suggest that open design companies can successfully implement strategies of partial openness to safeguard value capture without alienating their developer community.

These organizations are voluntary in nature and rely on contributions from members to achieve their objectives. Examples include the Linux operating system and other FOSS projects, political movements, churches and religious groups, Habitat for Humanity, and similar charitable organizations. In this paper, we consider a world containing agents with heterogeneous abilities who may voluntarily choose to make effort contributions to one or more different public projects. Agents are motivated by a desire to be seen as significant contributors to important and valuable projects, the warm glow from the act of contributing, and a desire to directly enjoy the benefits of projects when complete. We find that contributions from others can be either strategic complements or substitutes. We show that Nash equilibria exist and study how agents' abilities and project quality affect the equilibrium levels of contributions. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

These platforms are usually centered in a specific brand/product and their members are linked by a shared admiration to that brand. This paper analyzes one of the most powerful online collaborative platforms, the free software (FS) case, which involves a lot of virtual communities developed around products such as Linux or Android, the new Google's mobile operating system. Our purpose is to determine some of the main antecedents and consequences of the consumer involvement in this type of communities. Results have shown that satisfaction with a virtual community may increase the level of consumer participation in that community. At the same time, a greater identification with the virtual community may increase indirectly the consumer participation thanks to the enhancement of his/her satisfaction with the community. We have also found positive and significant effects of consumer identification and participation on the level of community promotion. Finally, positive and significant effects of consumer participation and satisfaction with the community on loyalty to the FS were also found. These findings allow us to conclude some interesting managerial implications. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

These efforts aim to identify common elements in the development process between multiple open source software projects. In this paper, the authors propose that the Design and Engineering Methodology for Organizations (DEMO) may provide an interesting alternative to develop OSSD process models. DEMO exhibits two unique features within the context of OSSD process modeling. First, DEMO analyzes processes at the ontological level and provides high-level process descriptions, instead of focusing on the implementation level. Second, DEMO studies the communication patterns between human actors, instead of the sequences in which activities are performed. The authors investigate the feasibility of using DEMO to construct OSSD process models by means of a case study. Their results showed that their DEMO models exhibited a high level of abstraction, thereby reducing the complexity of the OSSD process models. The authors have shown that the DEMO methodology can be successfully used to model OSSD processes and to obtain abstract and high-quality OSSD process models.},

	abstract = {Free, libre or open-source software (FLOSS) is nowadays produced not only by individual benevolent developers but, in a growing proportion, by firms that hire programmers for their own objectives of development in open source or for contributing to open-source projects in the context of dedicated communities. A recent literature has focused on the question of the business models explaining how and why firms may draw benefits from such involvement and their connected activities. They can be considered as the building blocks of a new modus operandi of an industry, built on an alternative approach to intellectual property management. Its prospects will depend on both the firms' willingness to rally and its ability to compete with the traditional proprietary approach. As a matter of fact, firms' involvement in FLOSS, while growing, remains very contrasted, depending on the nature of the products and the characteristics of the markets. This paper asks why for-profit firms contribute to FLOSS development and why some firms contribute more than others. The common explanation is that FLOSS is often a complement to proprietary software (or hardware or services) that the for-profit firm sells at a positive price. We present an alternative explanation based on the users' skill level. When users are skilled, opening the software is likely to result in a better product because the user base will contribute improvements (find bugs, write fixes and produce new features). We introduce the concept of the dominant user's skill and set up a theoretical model to better understand how it may condition the nature and outcome of the competition between a FLOSS firm and a proprietary firm. We discuss these results in the light of stylized facts drawn from recent trends in the software industry. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

While there is an abundance of literature on OSS, most studies on OSS success are either qualitative or exploratory in nature. To identify the factors that influence OSS success and establish generalizability, an empirical study measuring OSS success would enable OSS developers and users to improve OSS usage. In this study, we develop an OSS success model from a previous Information Systems success model incorporating the characteristics of OSS. Using the proposed model, we identify five determinants for OSS success as well as a number of significant relationships among these determinants. Our findings demonstrate that software quality and community service quality have significant effects on user satisfaction. Software quality and user satisfaction, in turn, have significant effects on OSS use. Additionally, OSS use and user satisfaction have significant effects on individual net benefits. This research contributes towards advancing theoretical understanding of OSS success as well as offering OSS practitioners for enhancing OSS success. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

The number and percentage of resolved bugs and bug resolution time of 118 SourceForge.net OSS projects were used to measure the learning effects. Projects were characterized by project type, number and experience of developers, number of bugs, and bug resolution time. Our results provided evidence of virtual organizational learning in OSS development projects and support for several factors as determinants of performance. Team size was a significant predictor, with mid-sized project teams functioning best. Teams of three to seven developers exhibited the highest efficiency over time and teams of eight to 15 produced the lowest mean time for bug resolution. Increasing the percentage of bugs assigned to specific developers or boosting developer participation in other OSS projects also improved performance. Furthermore, project type introduced variability in project team performance. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {This paper seeks to close an empirical gap regarding the motivations, personal attributes and behavioral patterns among free/libre and open-source (FLOSS) developers, especially those involved in community-based production, and considers the bearing of its findings on the existing literature and the future directions for research. Respondents to an extensive web-survey's (FLOSS-US 2003) questions about their reasons for beginning to work FLOSS are classified according to their distinct "motivational profiles" by hierarchical cluster analysis. Over half of them also are matched to projects of known membership sizes, revealing that although some members from each of the clusters are present in the small, medium and large ranges of the distribution of project sizes, the mixing fractions for the large and the very small project ranges are statistically different. Among developers who changed projects, there is a discernable flow from the bottom toward the very small towards to large projects, some of which is motivated by individuals seeking to improve their programming skills. It is found that the profile of early motivation, along with other individual attributes, significantly affects individual developers' selections of projects from different regions of the size range.

An important - but sometimes neglected - group of OSS users are Independent Software Vendors (ISVs). lSVs often develop their applications on top of OSS platform software. Frequently, this requires making several extensions and modifications to these OSS components. We identify a number of challenges that ISVs face in handling these extensions and modifications. Next, we describe several strategies ISVs can follow in maintaining these modifications. Finally, we suggest an opportunity for a closer collaboration between OSS projects and ISVs which could be mutually beneficial. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Following a case study methodology, we examined developer interaction data from three active and successful FLOSS projects using qualitative research methods, specifically inductive content analysis, to identify the task-assignment mechanisms used by the participants. We found that 'self-assignment' was the most common mechanism across three FLOSS projects. This mechanism is consistent with expectations for distributed and largely volunteer teams. We conclude by discussing whether these emergent practices can be usefully transferred to mainstream practice and indicating directions for future research. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

"Collective invention" regimes usually ended when a dominant design emerged. This is not the case with OSS. Firstly, the OSS community developed the institutional innovation of OSS licenses enabling OSS software to survive as a common property. Secondly, these licenses are mainly enforced by pro-socially motivated contributors. We characterize the conditions under which OSS communities develop and sustain pro-social commitments. We point out the vulnerability of these conditions to developments in patent legislation. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

We show that when OSS development is understood as the private provision of a public good, these features emerge quite naturally. We adapt a dynamic private-provision-of-public-goods model to reflect key aspects of the OSS phenomenon, such as play value or homo ludens payoff, user-programmers' and gift culture benefits. Such intrinsic motives feature extensively in the wider OSS literature and contribute new insights to the economic analysis. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {The emerging work on understanding open source software has questioned what leads to effectiveness in OSS development teams in the absence of formal controls, and it has pointed to the importance of ideology. This paper develops a framework of the OSS community ideology (including specific norms, beliefs, and values) and a theoretical model to show how adherence to components of the ideology impacts effectiveness in the OSS team. The model is based on the idea that the tenets of the OSS ideology motivate behaviors that enhance cognitive trust and communication quality and encourage identification with the project team, which enhances effective trust. Trust and communication in turn impact OSS team effectiveness. The research considers to kinds of effectiveness in OSS teams: the attraction and retention of developer input and the generation of project outputs. Hypotheses regarding antecedents to each are developed. Hypotheses are tested using survey and objective data on OSS projects. Results support the main thesis that OSS team ideology impacts OSS team effectiveness and reveal that different components impact effectiveness in different ways. Of particular interest is the finding that adherence to some ideological components was beneficial to the effectiveness of the team in terms of attracting and retaining input, but detrimental to the output of the team. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

	abstract = {The development of knowledge requires investment, which may be made in terms of financial resources or time. Open source software (OSS) has challenged much of the traditional reasoning by suggesting that individuals behave altruistically and contribute to a public good, despite the opportunity to free-ride. The lion's share of the existing literature on OSS examines communities, that is, those individuals whom are already part of the OSS community. In contrast, this paper starts from users with the requisite skill to use and develop OSS. This group of skilled individuals could potentially invest into the development of OSS knowledge, but they may or may not do so in actuality. This paper, therefore, explores three issues, which have not been extensively explored in the literature, namely, (1) how frequently a group of skilled people use OSS, (2) reasons for differences among users and non-users in terms of use and attitudes, and (3) how frequently, and why, some users contribute to OSS projects (and thereby become developers). In doing so, we consider the opportunity costs of use and development of OSS, which has been largely neglected in the literature. We find that the individuals have a rather pragmatic attitude to firms and that many are active in both firms and OSS community, which raises many questions for future research about the role and influence of firms on the development and diffusion of OSS.

	abstract = {This paper deals with the relationships between firms and communities in open source software (OSS). A particular feature of OSS is that important resources are not directly controlled by firms, but partly reside within communities that co-exist with the firms. Despite this, firms explicitly try to utilize the resources within these communities in order to create and appropriate value. Consequently, the relationships that firms have to these communities influence their way of doing business. Based on case studies of Nordic OSS firms, a typology consisting of symbiotic, commensalistic, and parasitic approaches to handle the firm-community relationship is developed. Depending on the chosen approach, firms encounter different managerial issues and also use different operational means of subtle control. While firms relying on a symbiotic approach have greater possibility to influence the community through subtle means of control, they are also confronted with more challenging managerial issues.

For this reason, this paper proposes some qualitative reflections and observations on the nature of open source software and on the most popular and important claims associated with the open source approach.

	abstract = {The focus of this paper is mainly on the GNU/LINUX operating system and the advantages that it affords developing countries seeking to bridge the global digital divide. In the early parts of the paper it is argued that, although GNU/LINUX can generate substantial savings when used instead of the proprietary alternative in numerous institutional settings, the most telling opportunities for developing countries arise when this system is combined with other ways of reducing computing costs. Policy, therefore, should not only consist of substituting GNU/LINUX for proprietary software in running the latest and most expensive hardware, but also of lowering these latter costs themselves. Later sections focus on the link between the choice of software and path-dependency. It is suggested that the problem of proprietary lock-in in developing countries has been greatly accentuated by piracy of Microsoft operating systems and that the result is a stagnation of the technological capabilities in software that these countries need so badly.},

	abstract = {Attracting and retaining newcomers are critical aspects for OSS projects, as such projects rely on newcomers’ sustainable contributions. Considerable effort has been made to help newcomers by identifying and overcoming the barriers during the onboarding process. However, most newcomers eventually fail and drop out of their projects even after successful onboarding. Meanwhile, it has been long known that individuals’ early career stages profoundly impact their long-term career success. However, newcomers’ early careers are less investigated in SE research. In this paper, we sought to develop an empirical understanding of the relationships between newcomers’ dynamic contribution patterns in their early careers and their technical success. To achieve this goal, we compiled a dataset of newcomers’ contribution data from 54 large OSS projects under three different ecosystems and analyzed it with time series analysis and other statistical analysis techniques. Our analyses yield rich findings. The correlations between several contribution patterns and technical success were identified. In general, being consistent and persistent in newcomers’ early careers is positively associated with their technical success. While these correlations generally hold in all three ecosystems, we observed some differences in detailed contribution patterns correlated with technical success across ecosystems. In addition, we performed a case study to investigate whether another type of contributions, i.e., documentation contribution, could potentially have positive correlations with newcomers’ technical success. We discussed the implications and summarized practical recommendations to OSS newcomers. The insights gained from this work demonstrated the necessity of extending the focus of research and practice to newcomers’ early careers and hence shed light on future research in this direction.},

Several vulnerability scanners to detect known-vulnerable dependencies appeared in the last decade, however, there exists no case study investigating the impact of development practices, e.g., forking, patching, re-bundling, on their performance. This paper studies (i) types of modifications that may affect vulnerable open-source dependencies and (ii) their impact on the performance of vulnerability scanners. Through an empirical study on 7,024 Java projects developed at SAP , we identified four types of modifications: re-compilation, re-bundling, metadata-removal and re-packaging. In particular, we found that more than 87 percent (56 percent, resp.) of the vulnerable Java classes considered occur in Maven Central in re-bundled (re-packaged, resp.) form. We assessed the impact of these modifications on the performance of the open-source vulnerability scanners OWASP Dependency-Check (OWASP) and Eclipse Steady, GitHub Security Alerts, and three commercial scanners. The results show that none of the scanners is able to handle all the types of modifications identified. Finally, we present Achilles , a novel test suite with 2,505 test cases that allow replicating the modifications on open-source dependencies.},

	abstract = {Context: Open Source Software (OSS) projects are typically the result of collective efforts performed by developers with different backgrounds. Although the quality of developers’ contributions should be the only factor influencing the evaluation of the contributions to OSS projects, recent studies have shown that diversity issues are correlated with the acceptance or rejection of developers’ contributions. Objective: This paper assists this emerging state-of-the-art body on diversity research with the first empirical study that analyzes how developers’ perceptible race and ethnicity relates to the evaluation of the contributions in OSS. We also want to create awareness of the racial and ethnic diversity in OSS projects. Methodology: We performed a large-scale quantitative study of OSS projects in GitHub. We extracted the developers’ perceptible race and ethnicity from their names in GitHub using the Name-Prism tool and applied regression modeling of contributions (i.e, pull requests) data from GHTorrent and GitHub. Results: We observed that (1) among the developers whose perceptible race and ethnicity was captured by the tool, only 16.56 percent were perceptible as Non-White developers; (2) contributions from perceptible White developers have about 6–10 percent higher odds of being accepted when compared to contributions from perceptible Non-White developers; and (3) submitters with perceptible non-white races and ethnicities are more likely to get their pull requests accepted when the integrator is estimated to be from their same race and ethnicity rather than when the integrator is estimated to be White. Conclusion: Our initial analysis shows a low number of Non-White developers participating in OSS. Furthermore, the results from our regression analysis lead us to believe that there may exist differences between the evaluation of the contributions from different perceptible races and ethnicities. Thus, our findings reinforce the need for further studies on racial and ethnic diversity in software engineering to foster healthier OSS communities.},

Economics often pictures this phenomenon as a case of signalling: individuals engage in the volunteer programming of open-source software (OSS) as a labour-market signal resulting in a wage premium. Yet, this explanation could so far not be empirically tested. This article fills this gap by estimating an upper-bound composite wage premium of voluntary OSS contributions and by separating the potential signalling effect of OSS engagement from other effects. Although some 70\% of OSS contributors believe that OSS involvement benefits their careers, we find no actual labour-market premium for OSS engagement. The presence of other motives, such as fun of play or altruism, renders OSS contributions too noisy to function as a signal.},

With it, they aim to empower and encourage development teams across organizations to perform small-scale, routine usability testing. A usability lab is, in essence, an observation platform for learning from the interaction between a participant and an application. Their experience shows that setting up an observation platform with enough quality for usability testing can be done with relative ease, without licensing fees or special platform requirements.

We also explore whether the level of modularization of project activities is correlated with performance. Our econometric estimations show that skill heterogeneity is associated with project survival and performance. However, the relationship between skill diversity and performance is non-monotonic. Design modularity is also positively associated with the performance of the project. Finally, the interaction between skill heterogeneity and modularity is negatively associated with performance.

While the benefits resulting from network externality have been examined in the related literature, the effect of free offer on the diffusion of new software has not been formally analyzed. We show in this study that even if other benefits do not exist, a software firm can still benefit from giving away fully functioning software. This is due to the accelerated diffusion process and subsequently the increased net present value of future sales. By adapting the Bass diffusion model to capture the impact of free software offer, we provide a methodology to determine the optimal number of free adopters. We show that the optimal free offer solution depends on the discount rate, the length of the demand window, and the ratio of low-valuation to high-valuation free adopters. Our methodology is shown to be applicable for both fixed and dynamic pricing strategies. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Social network analysis was used to visualize how participants are affiliated with the lists. The network topology reveals substantial community participation. The consequence of collaborating in mundane activities for the success of open source software projects is discussed.

OSS is an important form of digital infrastructure and part of a career path for many developers. While there exists a growing body of literature on cisgender women's under-representation in OSS, the experiences of contributors from other marginalized groups are comparatively absent from the literature. Such is the case for trans contributors, a historically influential group in OSS. In this study, we interviewed 21 trans participants to understand and represent their experiences in the OSS literature. From their experiences, we theorize two related paradoxes of openness in OSS: the paradox of openness and display and the paradox of openness and governance. In an increasingly violent world for trans people, we draw on our theorizing to build recommendations for more inclusive and safer OSS projects for contributors.},

Attracted by various advantages of OSS, increasing commercial companies are participating extensively in open source development, and this has had a broad impact. Enormous research efforts have been devoted to understanding this phenomenon and trying to pursue a win-win result. To characterize the current research achievement and identify challenges, this article provides a comprehensive systematic literature review (SLR) of existing research on company participation in OSS. We collected 105 papers and organized them based on their research topics, which cover three main directions, i.e., participation motivation, contribution model, and impact on OSS development. We found that companies have diverse motivations from economic, technological, and social aspects, and no one study covered all the motivation categories. Existing studies categorize five main companies’ contribution models in OSS projects through their objectives and how they shape OSS communities. Researchers also explored how commercial participation affects OSS development, including companies, developers, and OSS projects. This study contributes to a comprehensive understanding of commercial participation in OSS development. Based on our findings, we present a set of research challenges and promising directions for companies’ better participation in OSS.},

abstract = {In Open Source Software, resources of any project are open for reuse by introducing dependencies or copying the resource itself. In contrast to dependency-based reuse, the infrastructure to systematically support copy-based reuse appears to be entirely missing. Our aim is to enable future research and tool development to increase efficiency and reduce the risks of copy-based reuse. We seek a better understanding of such reuse by measuring its prevalence and identifying factors affecting the propensity to reuse. To identify reused artifacts and trace their origins, our method exploits World of Code infrastructure. We begin with a set of theory-derived factors related to the propensity to reuse, sample instances of different reuse types, and survey developers to better understand their intentions. Our results indicate that copy-based reuse is common, with many developers being aware of it when writing code. The propensity for a file to be reused varies greatly among languages and between source code and binary files, consistently decreasing over time. Files introduced by popular projects are more likely to be reused, but at least half of reused resources originate from “small” and “medium” projects. Developers had various reasons for reuse but were generally positive about using a package manager.},

abstract = {Usability is a crucial factor but one of the most neglected concerns in open source software (OSS). While far from an ideal approach, a common practice that OSS communities adopt to collaboratively address usability is through discussions on issue tracking systems (ITSs). However, there is little knowledge about the extent to which OSS community members engage in usability issue discussions, the aspects of usability they frequently target, and the characteristics of their collaboration around usability issue discussions. This knowledge is important for providing practical recommendations and research directions to better support OSS communities in addressing this important topic and improve OSS usability in general. To help achieve this goal, we performed an extensive empirical study on issues discussed in five popular OSS applications: three data science notebook projects (Jupyter Lab, Google Colab, and CoCalc) and two code editor projects (VSCode and Atom). Our results indicated that while usability issues are extensively discussed in the OSS projects, their scope tended to be limited to efficiency and aesthetics. Additionally, these issues are more frequently posted by experienced community members and display distinguishable characteristics, such as involving more visual communication and more participants. Our results provide important implications that can inform the OSS practitioners to better engage the community in usability issue discussion and shed light on future research efforts toward collaboration techniques and tools for discussing niche topics in diverse communities, such as the usability issues in the OSS context.},

abstract = {Open source software ecosystems consist of thousands of interdependent libraries, which users can combine to great effect. Recent work has pointed out two kinds of risks in these systems: that technical problems like bugs and vulnerabilities can spread through dependency links, and that relatively few developers are responsible for maintaining even the most widely used libraries. However, a more holistic diagnosis of systemic risk in software ecosystem should consider how these social and technical sources of risk interact and amplify one another. Motivated by the observation that the same individuals maintain several libraries within dependency networks, we present a methodological framework to measure risk in software ecosystems as a function of both dependencies and developers. In our models, a library’s chance of failure increases as its developers leave and as its upstream dependencies fail. We apply our method to data from the Rust ecosystem, highlighting several systemically important libraries that are overlooked when only considering technical dependencies. We compare potential interventions, seeking better ways to deploy limited developer resources with a view to improving overall ecosystem health and software supply chain resilience.},

abstract = {Despite the absence of a formal process and a central command-and-control structure, developer organization in open-source software (OSS) projects are far from being a purely random process. Prior work indicates that, over time, highly successful OSS projects develop a hybrid organizational structure that comprises a hierarchical part and a non-hierarchical part. This suggests that hierarchical organization is not necessarily a global organizing principle and that a fundamentally different principle is at play below the lowest positions in the hierarchy. Given the vast proportion of developers are in the non-hierarchical part, we seek to understand the interplay between these two fundamentally differently organized groups, how this hybrid structure evolves, and the trajectory individual developers take through these structures over the course of their participation. We conducted a longitudinal study of the full histories of 20 popular OSS projects, modeling their organizational structures as networks of developers connected by communication ties and characterizing developers’ positions in terms of hierarchical (sub)structures in these networks. We observed a number of notable trends and patterns in the subject projects: (1) hierarchy is a pervasive structural feature of developer networks of OSS projects; (2) OSS projects tend to form hybrid organizational structures, consisting of a hierarchical and a non-hierarchical part; and (3) the positional trajectory of a developer starts loosely connected in the non-hierarchical part and then tightly integrate into the hierarchical part, which is associated with the acquisition of experience (tenure), in addition to coordination and coding activities. Our study (a) provides a methodological basis for further investigations of hierarchy formation, (b) suggests a number of hypotheses on prevalent organizational patterns and trends in OSS projects to be addressed in further work, and (c) may ultimately guide the governance of organizational structures.},

abstract = {Sustainable Open Source Software (OSS) forms much of the fabric of our digital society, especially successful and sustainable ones. But many OSS projects do not become sustainable, resulting in abandonment and even risks for the world's digital infrastructure. Prior work has looked at the reasons for this mainly from two very different perspectives. In software engineering, the focus has been on understanding success and sustainability from the socio-technical perspective: the OSS programmers' day-to-day activities and the artifacts they create. In institutional analysis, on the other hand, emphasis has been on institutional designs (e.g., policies, rules, and norms) that structure project governance. Even though each is necessary for a comprehensive understanding of OSS projects, the connection and interaction between the two approaches have been barely explored.In this paper, we make the first effort toward understanding OSS project sustainability using a dual-view analysis, by combining institutional analysis with socio-technical systems analysis. In particular, we (i) use linguistic approaches to extract institutional rules and norms from OSS contributors' communications to represent the evolution of their governance systems, and (ii) construct socio-technical networks based on longitudinal collaboration records to represent each project's organizational structure. We combined the two methods and applied them to a dataset of developer digital traces from 253 nascent OSS projects within the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) incubator. We find that the socio-technical and institutional features relate to each other, and provide complimentary views into the progress of the ASF's OSS projects. Refining these combined analyses can help provide a more precise understanding of the synchronization between the evolution of institutional governance and organizational structure.},

abstract = {Women are underrepresented in Open Source Software (OSS) projects, as a result of which, not only do women lose career and skill development opportunities, but the projects themselves suffer from a lack of diversity of perspectives. Practitioners and researchers need to understand more about the phenomenon; however, studies about women in open source are spread across multiple fields, including information systems, software engineering, and social science. This article systematically maps, aggregates, and synthesizes the state-of-the-art on women’s participation in OSS. It focuses on women contributors’ representation and demographics, how they contribute, their motivations and challenges, and strategies employed by communities to attract and retain women. We identified 51 articles (published between 2000 and 2021) that investigated women’s participation in OSS. We found evidence in these papers about who are the women who contribute, what motivates them to contribute, what types of contributions they make, challenges they face, and strategies proposed to support their participation. According to these studies, only about 5% of projects were reported to have women as core developers, and women authored less than 5% of pull-requests, but had similar or even higher rates of pull-request acceptances than men. Women make both code and non-code contributions, and their motivations to contribute include learning new skills, altruism, reciprocity, and kinship. Challenges that women face in OSS are mainly social, including lack of peer parity and non-inclusive communication from a toxic culture. We found 10 strategies reported in the literature, which we mapped to the reported challenges. Based on these results, we provide guidelines for future research and practice.},

The code of conduct, a set of rules articulating standard behavior and responsibilities for participation within a community, is becoming an increasingly common policy document in open source software projects for setting project norms of behavior and discouraging negative or harassing comments and conversation. This study describes the conversations around adopting and crafting a code of conduct as well as those utilizing code of conduct for community governance. We conduct a qualitative analysis of a random sample of GitHub issues that involve the code of conduct. We find that codes of conduct are used both proactively and reactively to govern community behavior in project issues. Oftentimes, the initial addition of a code of conduct does not involve much community participation and input. However, a controversial moderation act is capable of inciting mass community feedback and backlash. Project maintainers balance the tension between disciplining potentially offensive forms of speech and encouraging broad and inclusive participation. These results have implications for the design of inclusive and effective governance practices for open source software communities.},

abstract = {Many open-source software projects depend on a few core developers, who take over both the bulk of coordination and programming tasks. They are supported by peripheral developers, who contribute either via discussions or programming tasks, often for a limited time. It is unclear what role these peripheral developers play in the programming and communication efforts, as well as the temporary task-related sub-groups in the projects. We mine code-repository data and mailing-list discussions to model the relationships and contributions of developers in a social network and devise a method to analyze the temporal collaboration structures in communication and programming, learning about the strength and stability of social sub-groups in open-source software projects. Our method uses multi-modal social networks on a series of time windows. Previous work has reduced the network structure representing developer collaboration to networks with only one type of interaction, which impedes the simultaneous analysis of more than one type of interaction. We use both communication and version-control data of open-source software projects and model different types of interaction over time. To demonstrate the practicability of our measurement and analysis method, we investigate 10 substantial and popular open-source software projects and show that, if sub-groups evolve, modeling these sub-groups helps predict the future evolution of interaction levels of programmers and groups of developers. Our method allows maintainers and other stakeholders of open-source software projects to assess instabilities and organizational changes in developer interaction and can be applied to different use cases in organizational analysis, such as understanding the dynamics of a specific incident or discussion.},

Maintainers of F/OSS projects do not just maintain software code in a more traditional software engineering understanding of the term: fixing bugs, patching security vulnerabilities, and updating dependencies. F/OSS maintainers also perform complex and often-invisible interpersonal and organizational work to keep their projects operating as active communities of users and contributors. We particularly focus on how this labor of maintaining and sustaining changes as projects and their software grow and scale across many dimensions. In understanding F/OSS to be as much about maintaining a communal project as it is maintaining software code, we discuss broadly applicable considerations for peer production communities and other socio-technical systems more broadly.},

In this study, we explore an alternative way to organize a global software engineering course where students work on open source software development (OSSD) projects rather than in a multi-university collaboration setting. The results show that the new setup may provide core GSE challenges as well as challenges associated with software development outsourcing and challenges related to working on large open source software. The present article compares the experiences gained from running a combined GSE and OSSD course against the experiences gained from running a traditional GSE course. The two alternatives are compared in terms of students’ learning outcomes and course organization. The authors found that a combined GSE and OSSD course provides learning opportunities that are partly overlapping with, and partly complementary to, a traditional GSE course. The authors also found that the combined OSSD and GSE course was somewhat easier to organize because most of the activities took place in a single university setting. The authors used the extended GSE taxonomy for the comparison and found it to be a useful tool for this, although it had some limitations in expressive power. Therefore, two additional relationship dimensions are proposed that will further enrich the extended taxonomy in classifying GSE (and OSSD) projects.},

abstract = {Peer review is seen as an important quality-assurance mechanism in both industrial development and the open-source software (OSS) community. The techniques for performing inspections have been well studied in industry; in OSS development, software peer reviews are not as well understood.To develop an empirical understanding of OSS peer review, we examine the review policies of 25 OSS projects and study the archival records of six large, mature, successful OSS projects. We extract a series of measures based on those used in traditional inspection experiments. We measure the frequency of review, the size of the contribution under review, the level of participation during review, the experience and expertise of the individuals involved in the review, the review interval, and the number of issues discussed during review. We create statistical models of the review efficiency, review interval, and effectiveness, the issues discussed during review, to determine which measures have the largest impact on review efficacy.We find that OSS peer reviews are conducted asynchronously by empowered experts who focus on changes that are in their area of expertise. Reviewers provide timely, regular feedback on small changes. The descriptive statistics clearly show that OSS review is drastically different from traditional inspection.},

abstract = {The use of free and Open-Source Software (OSS) systems is gaining momentum. Organizations are also now adopting OSS, despite some reservations, particularly about the quality issues. Stability of software is one of the main features in software quality management that needs to be understood and accurately predicted. It deals with the impact resulting from software changes and argues that stable components lead to a cost-effective software evolution. Changes are most common phenomena present in OSS in comparison to proprietary software. This makes OSS system evolution a rich context to study and predict stability. Our objective in this work is to build stability prediction models that are not only accurate but also interpretable, that is, able to explain the link between the architectural aspects of a software component and its stability behavior in the context of OSS. Therefore, we propose a new approach based on classifiers combination capable of preserving prediction interpretability. Our approach is classifier-structure dependent. Therefore, we propose a particular solution for combining Bayesian classifiers in order to derive a more accurate composite classifier that preserves interpretability. This solution is implemented using a genetic algorithm and applied in the context of an OSS large-scale system, namely the standard Java API. The empirical results show that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art approaches from both machine learning and software engineering.},

abstract = {Open source software projects often rely on package management systems that help projects discover, incorporate, and maintain dependencies on other packages, maintained by other people. Such systems save a great deal of effort over ad hoc ways of advertising, packaging, and transmitting useful libraries, but coordination among project teams is still needed when one package makes a breaking change affecting other packages. Ecosystems differ in their approaches to breaking changes, and there is no general theory to explain the relationships between features, behavioral norms, ecosystem outcomes, and motivating values. We address this through two empirical studies. In an interview case study, we contrast Eclipse, NPM, and CRAN, demonstrating that these different norms for coordination of breaking changes shift the costs of using and maintaining the software among stakeholders, appropriate to each ecosystem’s mission. In a second study, we combine a survey, repository mining, and document analysis to broaden and systematize these observations across 18 ecosystems. We find that all ecosystems share values such as stability and compatibility, but differ in other values. Ecosystems’ practices often support their espoused values, but in surprisingly diverse ways. The data provides counterevidence against easy generalizations about why ecosystem communities do what they do.},

One way this problem can be mitigated is by growing student-oriented open source projects within academia while still involving real world clients. One such project, called Homebase, involved a team of students working with a local Ronald McDonald House to develop volunteer scheduling software. In true open source fashion, this project has since been extended over a number of course iterations, with different clients, and has been adopted at other schools. In this paper, we report on our experiences using this approach for similar projects at three quite different schools, and discuss ways to adapt and enhance this approach for differing student populations.},

abstract = {Unlike in commercial software development, open source software (OSS) projects do not generally have managers with direct control over how developers spend their time, yet for projects with large, diverse sets of contributors, the need exists to focus and steer development in a particular direction in a coordinated way. This is especially important for "infrastructure" projects, such as critical libraries and programming languages that many other people depend on. Some projects have taken the approach of borrowing planning tools that originated in commercial development, despite the fact that these techniques were designed for very different contexts, e.g. strong top-down control and profit motives. Little research has been done to understand how these practices are adapted to a new context. In this paper, we examine the Rust project's use of roadmaps: how has an important OSS infrastructure project adapted an inherently top-down tool to the freewheeling world of OSS? We find that because Rust's roadmaps are built in part by summarizing what motivated developers most prefer to work on, they are in some ways more a description of the motivated labor available than they are a directive that the community move in a particular direction. They allow the community to avoid wasting time on unpopular proposals by revealing that there will be little help in building them, and encouraging work on popular features by making visible the amount of consensus in those features. Roadmaps generate a collective focus without limiting the full scope of what developers work on: roadmap issues consume proportionally more effort than other issues, but constitute a minority of the work done (i.e issues and pull requests made) by both central and peripheral participants. They also create transparency among and beyond the community into what central contributors' plans are, and allow more rational decision-making by providing a way for evidence about community needs to be linked to decision-making.},

On the other hand, Open Source Software (OSS) allows access to source code so that the users can read, modify, and redistribute the code. OSS is usually developed under an open environment with collaborations among numerous developers. The software is considered more reliable, and the development process is considered more successful in terms of speed, productivity, and quality compared to software developed under the traditional closed development process. This paper studies the basics of OSS including history and background, and OSS licenses. The OSS licenses implement the "copyleft" concept, which is a method to make software free to use and modify.

In addition to an appropriate software budget, activities such as installing security software, setting up user accounts, and configuring lab systems can require significant time and labor resources. In a conventional environment, it may also require a dedicated computer lab for each security class. In a given educational environment, obtaining these resources may be problematic.To mitigate these problems, we developed a "hand on" security design process that utilizes Live CDs and Open Source tools. By definition, a Live CD is a bootable CD that contains a complete operating system. Many Live CDs also include useful security utilities. In our security classes, we have utilized both general purpose Live CDs, such as Knoppix, and dedicated security centric Live CDs, such as Auditor. [8] In addition to being self configuring, Live CDs may also be remastered to accommodate additional security tools and related information.This paper presents an overview of our experiences developing "hands on" security activities with Live CD and Open Source components. Our "hands on" activities were developed to support our four course security specialization. To provide a context for this, we first present a brief overview of the security specialization.},

abstract = {Requirements identification is a human-centric activity that involves interaction among multiple stakeholders. Traditional requirements engineering (RE) techniques addressing stakeholders’ social interaction are mainly part of a centralized process intertwined with a specific phase of software development. However, in open-source software (OSS) development, stakeholders’ social interactions are often decentralized, iterative, and dynamic. Little is known about new requirements identification in OSS and the stakeholders’ organizational arrangements supporting such an activity. In this article, we investigate the theory of structural hole from the context of contributing new requirements in OSS projects. Structural hole theory suggests that stakeholders positioned in the structural holes in their social network are able to produce new ideas. In this study, we find that structural hole positions emerge in stakeholders’ social network and these positions are positively related to contributing a higher number of new requirements. We find that along with structural hole positions, stakeholders’ role is also an important part in identifying new requirements. We further observe that structural hole positions evolve over time, thereby identifying requirements to realize enriched features. Our work advances the fundamental understanding of the RE process in a decentralized environment and opens avenues for improved techniques supporting this process.},

However, the security communities realize some limitations when they put most existing proposals into practice. The challenges are mainly concerned with (i) fine-grained unknown attack detection and (ii) ever-changing legitimate traffic adaptation. To tackle these problem, we present three key design norms. The core idea is to construct a model to split the data distribution hyperplane and leverage the concept of isolation, as well as advance the incremental model update. We utilize the isolation tree as the backbone to design our model, named FOSS, to echo back three norms. By analyzing the popular dataset of network intrusion traces, we show that FOSS significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods. Further, we perform an initial deployment of FOSS by working with the Internet Service Provider (ISP) to detect distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. With real-world tests and manual analysis, we demonstrate the effectiveness of FOSS to identify previously-unseen attacks in a fine-grained manner.},

abstract = {Over the past two decades, deep learning has received tremendous success in developing software systems across various domains. Deep learning frameworks have been proposed to facilitate the development of such software systems, among which, PyTorch and TensorFlow stand out as notable examples. Considerable attention focuses on exploring software engineering practices and addressing diverse technical aspects in developing and deploying deep learning frameworks and software systems. Despite these efforts, little is known about the open source software communities involved in the development of deep learning frameworks.In this article, we perform a comparative investigation into the open source software communities of the two representative deep learning frameworks, PyTorch and TensorFlow. To facilitate the investigation, we compile a dataset of 2,792 and 3,288 code commit authors, along with 9,826 and 19,750 participants engaged in issue events on GitHub, from the two communities, respectively. With the dataset, we first characterize the structures of the two communities by employing four operationalizations to classify contributors into various roles and inspect the contributions made by common contributors across the two communities. We then conduct a longitudinal analysis to characterize the evolution of the two communities across various releases, in terms of the numbers of contributors with various roles and role transitions among contributors. Finally, we explore the causal effects between community characteristics and the popularity of the two frameworks.We find that the TensorFlow community harbors a larger base of contributors, encompassing a higher proportion of core developers and a more extensive cohort of active users compared to the PyTorch community. In terms of the technical background of the developers, 64.4% and 56.1% developers in the PyTorch and TensorFlow communities are employed by the leading companies of the corresponding open source software projects, Meta and Google, respectively; 25.9% and 21.9% core developers in the PyTorch and TensorFlow communities possess Ph.D. degrees, while 77.2% and 77.7% contribute to other machine learning or deep learning open source projects, respectively. Developers contributing to both communities demonstrate spatial and temporal similarities to some extent in their pull requests across the respective projects. The evolution of contributors with various roles exhibits a consistent upward trend over time in the PyTorch community. Conversely, a noticeable turning point in the growth of contributors characterizes the evolution of the TensorFlow community. Both communities show a statistically significant decreasing trend in the inflow rates of core developers. Furthermore, we observe statistically significant causal effects between the expansion of communities and retention of core developers and the popularity of deep learning frameworks. Based on our findings, we discuss implications, provide recommendations for sustaining open source software communities of deep learning frameworks, and outline directions for future research.},

abstract = {Participation by product users is critical to success in free, open-source software (FOSS) software communities as they originate and develop valuable ideas for product innovation that are unlikely to originate from the core software development community. Users tend to be involved at the periphery of FOSS communities, suggesting new product ideas, highlighting problems with user documentation, or explaining when the product design fails to fit with the needs of their local user application domain. As an increasing number of FOSS projects employ a hybrid participation model that combines volunteer effort with paid software development effort or product support, it can be difficult for non-developer users to participate in product innovation. In colocated organizations, it is theorized that peripheral participants learn how to engage with the practices and cultural identity of a community through a sociocultural apprenticeship known as legitimate peripheral participation. But we have little literature that explores how legitimate peripheral participation is enabled in online communities.The research study presented in this article explores how participation by peripheral users in a hybrid FOSS project is afforded by participation architecture channels and community mechanisms that mediate two forms of engagement: a “cognitive apprenticeship” that introduces participants to situated domain activity, such as the community processes involved in product innovation, and a “social apprenticeship” by which participants become enculturated in the system of meanings, values, norms, and behaviors that govern community/participant identity. We identified five stages of community innovation, analyzing sociotechnical affordances of the online participation architecture that enable peripheral participants to internalize the meanings of community practice and to develop a social identity within the FOSS community. Our contribution to theory is provided by the substantive explanation of the cognitive and social translations that enable legitimate peripheral participation in online communities, mediated by sociotechnical access channels and mechanisms that afford two contrasting forms of opportunities for action: those resulting from interactions between a goal-oriented actor and the technology platform features or channels of participation, and those associated with the social structures, roles, and relationships underpinning community interactions. Neither of these is sufficient without the other. Our contribution to practice is provided by an explanation of how four distinct categories of affordance provide these cognitive and social apprenticeship benefits, allowing participation architecture designers to cater to all forms of peripheral user participation. We conclude that the technical affordances of a typical FOSS community participation architecture are insufficient to mediate peripheral participation by nontechnical users. Meaningful participation is mediated by interactions between boundary spanners who play knowledge-brokering and organizational bridging roles. The combination of technical and social affordances enables peripheral participants to acquire an interior view of community practices and social culture and in turn to introduce new ideas, new values, and new rationales to produce a generative dance of innovation that percolates through the community.},

Such capstone projects may be student-designed, instructor-designed, designed in conjunction with outside companies, or integrated with ongoing free and open source (FOSS) projects. The literature shows that the FOSS approach has attracted a great deal of interest, in particular when implemented with projects that have humanitarian goals (HFOSS). In this article, we describe five unique models from five distinct types of institutions for incorporating sustained FOSS or HFOSS (alternatively H/FOSS) project work into capstone experiences or courses. The goal is to provide instructors wishing to integrate open source experiences into their curriculum with additional perspectives and resources to help in adapting this approach to the specific needs and goals of their institution and students. All of the models presented are based on sustained engagement with H/FOSS projects that last at least one semester and often more. Each model is described in terms of its characteristics and how it fits the needs of the institution using the model. Assessment of each model is also presented. We then discuss the themes that are common across the models, such as project selection, team formation, mentoring, and student assessment. We examine the choices made by each model, as well as the challenges faced. We end with a discussion how the models have leveraged institutional initiatives and collaborations with outside organizations to address some of the challenges associated with these projects.},

However, this expansion has also brought significant security challenges, particularly introducing and propagating software vulnerabilities. Despite the use of machine learning and formal methods to tackle these issues, there remains a notable gap in comprehensive surveys that summarize and analyze both Vulnerability Detection (VD) and Security Patch Detection (SPD) in OSS. This article seeks to bridge this gap through an extensive survey that evaluates 127 technical studies published between 2014 and 2023, structured around the Vulnerability-Patch lifecycle. We begin by delineating the six critical events that constitute the Vulnerability-Patch lifecycle, leading to an in-depth exploration of the Vulnerability-Patch ecosystem. We then systematically review the databases commonly used in VD and SPD, and analyze their characteristics. Subsequently, we examine existing VD methods, focusing on traditional and deep learning based approaches. Additionally, we organize current security patch identification methods by kernel type and discuss techniques for detecting the presence of security patches. Based on our comprehensive review, we identify open research questions and propose future research directions that merit further exploration.},

Previous work has thus far investigated the challenges faced in OSS communities from the point of view of specific stakeholders, primarily at the level of individual projects. None have yet studied the challenges faced within a large, federated open source organization. In this paper, we aim to bridge this gap to identify ongoing challenges contributors face in a mature OSS organization. To do so, we surveyed 624 contributors at the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) and ran 11 semi-structured follow up interviews. We validated our findings through member checking with the interviewees as well as the ASF Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) committee. The contributions of this paper include: (1) an empirically-evidenced conceptual model of the 88 challenges that contributors face in a mature OSS foundation and (2) a set of 48 community-recommended strategies for alleviating these challenges. Our results show that even well-established and mature organizations still face a variety of individual and project-specific challenges and that it is difficult to design a comprehensive set of processes and guidelines to match the needs and expectations of a diverse and large federated community. Our conceptual challenges model and associated strategies to mitigate them can provide guidance to other OSS foundations and projects helping them in building better support processes and tools to create a successful, thriving community of contributors.},

Our software description similarity model is basically a machine learning model trained using the PVA on the software product descriptions of GitHub repositories. Given the software description of a newly envisioned software, our tool yields an effort estimate for developing it.Our method achieves the highest standardized accuracy score of 87.26% (with Cliff’s δ = 0.88 at 99.999% confidence level) and 42.7% with the automatically transformed linear baseline model.

abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) development is a collaborative endeavor where expert developers, distributed around the globe create software solutions. Given this characteristic, OSS communities have been studied as technical communities, where stakeholders join and evolve in their careers based on their (often voluntary) code contributions to the project. However, the OSS landscape is slowly changing with more people and companies getting involved in OSS. This means that projects now need people in non-technical roles and activities to keep the project sustainable and evolving. In this paper, we focus on understanding the roles and activities that are part of the current OSS landscape and the different career pathways in OSS. By conducting and analyzing 17 interviews with OSS contributors who are well known in the community, we provide empirical evidence of the existence and importance of community-centric roles (e.g advocate, license manager, community founder) in addition to the well-known project-centric ones (e.g maintainer, core member). However, the community-centric roles typically remain hidden, since these roles may not leave traces in software repositories typically analyzed by researchers. We found that people can build a career in OSS through different roles and activities, with different backgrounds, including those not related to writing software. Furthermore, people's career pathways are fluid, moving between project and community-centric roles. Our work highlights that communities and researchers need to take action to acknowledge the importance of these varied roles, making these roles visible and well-recognized, which can ultimately help attract and retain more people in the OSS projects.},

abstract = {Motivation: Open-source projects are often supported by companies, but such involvement often affects the robust contributor inflow needed to sustain the project and sometimes prompts key contributors to leave. To capture user innovation and to maintain quality of software and productivity of teams, these projects need to attract and retain contributors. Aim: We want to understand and quantify how inflow and retention are shaped by policies and actions of companies in three application server projects. Method: We identified three hybrid projects implementing the same JavaEE specification and used published literature, online materials, and interviews to quantify actions and policies companies used to get involved. We collected project repository data, analyzed affiliation history of project participants, and used generalized linear models and survival analysis to measure contributor inflow and retention. Results: We identified coherent groups of policies and actions undertaken by sponsoring companies as three models of community involvement and quantified tradeoffs between the inflow and retention each model provides. We found that full control mechanisms and high intensity of commercial involvement were associated with a decrease of external inflow and with improved retention. However, a shared control mechanism was associated with increased external inflow contemporaneously with the increase of commercial involvement. Implications: Inspired by a natural experiment, our methods enabled us to quantify aspects of the balance between community and private interests in open- source software projects and provide clear implications for the structure of future open-source communities.},

abstract = {In the process of developing software, code review is crucial. By identifying problems before they arise in production, it enhances the quality of the code. Finding the best reviewer for a code change, however, is extremely challenging especially in large scale, especially open source software stacks with cross functioning designs and collaborations among multiple developers and teams. Additionally, a review by someone who lacks knowledge and understanding of the code can result in high resource consumption and technical errors. The reviewers who have the specialty in both functioning (domain knowledge) and non-functioning areas of a commit are considered as the most qualified reviewer to look over any changes to the code. Quality attributes serve as the connection among the user requirements, delivered function description, software architecture and implementation through put the entire software stack cycle. In this study, we target on auto reviewer assignment in large scale software stacks and aim to build a self-learning, and self-correct platform for intelligently matching between a commit based on its quality attributes and the skills sets of reviewers. To achieve this, quality attributes are classified and abstracted from the commit messages and based on which, the commits are assigned to the reviewers with the capability in reviewing the target commits. We first designed machine learning schemes for abstracting quality attributes based on historical data from the OpenStack repository. Two models are built and trained for automating the classification of the commits based on their quality attributes using the manual labeling of commits and multi-class classifiers. We then positioned the reviewers based on their historical data and the quality attributes characteristics. Finally we selected the recommended reviewer based on the distance between a commit and candidate reviewers. In this paper, we demonstrate how the models can choose the best quality attributes and assign the code review to the most qualified reviewers. With a comparatively small training dataset, the models are able to achieve F-1 scores of 77% and 85.31%, respectively.},

abstract = {Open source software communities have demonstrated that they can produce high quality results. The overall success of peer code review, commonly used in open source projects, has likely contributed strongly to this success. Code review is an emotionally loaded practice, with public exposure of reputation and ample opportunities for conflict. We set off to ask why code review works for open source communities, despite this inherent challenge. We interviewed 21 open source contributors from four communities and participated in meetings of ROS community devoted to implementation of the code review process.It appears that the hacker ethic is a key reason behind the success of code review in FOSS communities. It is built around the ethic of passion and the ethic of caring. Furthermore, we observed that tasks of code review are performed with strong intrinsic motivation, supported by many non-material extrinsic motivation mechanisms, such as desire to learn, to grow reputation, or to improve one's positioning on the job market.In the paper, we describe the study design, analyze the collected data and formulate 20 proposals for how what we know about hacker ethics and human and social aspects of code review, could be exploited to improve the effectiveness of the practice in software projects.},

abstract = {OpenMP, a widely adopted standard for shared memory parallel programming, is known for its simplicity and portability, making it accessible to programmers across various domains, not just HPC experts. This study aims at providing an overview of the current practice of OpenMP usage in open source projects. We focus our study on the considerations necessary for efficient OpenMP usage, as parallelizing an application with OpenMP comes with a certain overhead necessary for thread creation and management.For this purpose, we developed a binary analysis tool that automatically estimates the complexity of a parallel region allowing a comparison with the complexity of thread creation and management overhead in bluk. We applied this tool on a large set of 537 open source applications. Specifically, we want to answer the question: “To what extent is the usage of OpenMP in general following known good practices from the HPC community?" In particular, we find that 45% of projects contain at least one example of a rather simple parallel region. In these cases, it is questionable whether parallelization is worth the overhead necessary for thread creation and management. We also observe from the codes analysed that the style of using OpenMP apparently did not change over the last decade.Our analysis tool is available on GitHub: .},

abstract = {Vulnerability reports play a crucial role in mitigating open-source software risks. Typically, the vulnerability report contains affected versions of a software. However, despite the validation by security expert who discovers and vendors who review, the affected versions are not always accurate. Especially, the complexity of maintaining its accuracy increases significantly when dealing with multiple versions and their differences. Several advances have been made to identify affected versions. However, they still face limitations. First, some existing approaches identify affected versions based on repository-hosting platforms (i.e., GitHub), but these versions are not always consistent with those in package registries (i.e., Maven). Second, existing approaches fail to distinguish the importance of different vulnerable methods and patched statements in face of vulnerabilities with multiple methods and change hunks.To address these problems, this paper proposes a novel approach, Vision, to accurately identify affected library versions (ALVs) for vulnerabilities. Vision uses library versions from the package registry as inputs. To distinguish the importance of vulnerable methods and patched statements, Vision performs critical method selection and critical statement selection to prioritize important changes and their context. Furthermore, the vulnerability signature is represented by weighted inter-procedural program dependency graphs that incorporate critical methods and statements. Vision determines ALVs based on the similarities between these weighted graphs. Our evaluation demonstrates that Vision outperforms state-of-the-art approaches, achieving a precision of 0.91 and a recall of 0.94. Additionally, our evaluation shows the practical usefulness of Vision in correcting affected versions in existing vulnerability databases.},

This dataset seeks to encourage the studies of OSS-wide copy-based reuse by providing copying activity data that captures whole-file reuse in nearly all OSS. To accomplish that, we develop approaches to detect copy-based reuse by developing an efficient algorithm that exploits World of Code infrastructure: a curated and cross referenced collection of nearly all open source repositories. We expect this data will enable future research and tool development that support such reuse and minimize associated risks.},

While past research has proposed strategies for the sustainability of the scientific software or general OSS communities in isolation, it remains unclear when the two scenarios are merged if these approaches are directly applicable to developing scientific OSS. In this research, we propose to investigate the unique challenges in sustaining the scientific OSS ecosystems. We first conduct a case study to empirically understand the interdisciplinary team's collaboration in scientific OSS ecosystems and identify the collaboration challenges. Further, to generalize our findings, we plan to conduct a large-scale quantitative study in broader scientific OSS ecosystems to identify the cross-project collaboration inefficiencies. Finally, we would like to design and develop interventions to mitigate the problems identified.},

abstract = {The Open Source Software movement has been growing exponentially for a number of years with no signs of slowing. Driving this growth is the wide-spread availability of libraries and frameworks that provide many functionalities. Developers are saving time and money incorporating this functionality into their applications resulting in faster more feature-rich releases. Despite the growing success and the advantages that open source software provides, there is a dark side. Due to its community construction and largely unregulated distribution, the majority of open source software contains bugs, vulnerabilities and other issues making it highly susceptible to exploits. The lack of oversight in general hinders the quality of this software resulting in a trickle down effect in the applications that use it. Additionally, developers who use open source tend to arbitrarily download the software into their build systems but rarely keep track of what they have downloaded resulting in an excessive amount of open source software in their applications and in their ecosystem. This paper discusses processes and practices that users of open source software can implement into their environments that can safely track and control the introduction and usage of open source software into their applications, and report on some preliminary results obtained in an industrial context. We conclude by discussing governance issues related to the disciplined use and reuse of open source and areas for further improvements.},

abstract = {Context: Architectural views serve as fundamental artefacts for designing and communicating software architectures. In the context of collaborative software development, producing sound architectural documentation, where architectural views play a central role, is a crucial aspect for effective teamwork. Despite their importance, the use of architectural views in open-source projects to date remains only marginally explored.Goal: We aim at conducting a comprehensive analysis on an extensive corpus of open-source architectural views. The goal is to understand (i) what the “history” of architectural views is, (ii) how architectural views are represented, and (iii) what architectural views are used for in the context of open-source projects.Methods: We leverage a software repository mining process to systematically construct a dataset of 15k architectural views. Then, we perform (i) a quantitative analysis on the metadata of all 15k views and (ii) a qualitative analysis on a statistically-relevant sample of 373 views.Results: Most projects rely on a single architectural view, which is often used to document a medium or high level description of the architecture. Views are usually created at either the beginning or at the end of a project, are rarely updated, and tend to be maintained by a single contributor. Views usually adopt an informal colored notation without a supporting legend and frequently report technologies used. Deployment and control flow are the most recurrent viewpoints, and commonly cover concerns related to software maintainability and functional suitability.Conclusion: The state of the practice about architectural views in open-source software systems seems to favor informal descriptions. Despite this, the effort needed to create views might hinder keeping views up to date, and a common syntactic ground between viewpoints seems hard to find. To address current needs, we speculate that a solution could lie in defining and popularizing versionable, templateable views that can be integrated in collaborative programming environments.},

In this paper, we explore how to measure trust in open source supply chains with the goal of developing robust measures for trust based on the behaviors of developers in the community. To this end, we contribute a process for decomposing trust in a complex large-scale system into key trust relationships, systematically identifying behavior-based indicators for the components of trust for a given relationship, and in turn operationalizing data-driven metrics for those indicators, allowing for the wide-scale measurement of trust in practice.},

In the project, we will use both quantitative and qualitative metrics to evaluate the health of OSS projects. The quantitative metrics will be gathered through automated crawling of meta information such as the number of contributors, commits and lines of code. Qualitative metrics will be gathered for selected “critical” projects through manual analysis and automated tools, including aspects such as sustainability, funding, community engagement and adherence to security policies. The results of the analysis will be presented on a user-friendly web platform, which will allow users to view the health of individual OSS projects as well as the overall health of the OSS ecosystem. With this approach, the CrOSSD project provides a comprehensive and up-to-date view of the health of OSS projects, making it easier for developers, maintainers and other stakeholders to understand the health of OSS projects and make informed decisions about their use and maintenance.},

abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is forming the spines of technology infrastructures, attracting millions of talents to contribute. Notably, it is challenging and critical to consider both the developers’ interests and the semantic features of the project code to recommend appropriate development tasks to OSS developers. In this paper, we formulate the novel problem of code recommendation, whose purpose is to predict the future contribution behaviors of developers given their interaction history, the semantic features of source code, and the hierarchical file structures of projects. We introduce CODER, a novel graph-based CODE Recommendation framework for open source software developers, which accounts for the complex interactions among multiple parties within the system. CODER jointly models microscopic user-code interactions and macroscopic user-project interactions via a heterogeneous graph and further bridges the two levels of information through aggregation on file-structure graphs that reflect the project hierarchy. Moreover, to overcome the lack of reliable benchmarks, we construct three large-scale datasets to facilitate future research in this direction. Extensive experiments show that our CODER framework achieves superior performance under various experimental settings, including intra-project, cross-project, and cold-start recommendation.},

abstract = {In the evolving landscape of software development, the adoption of open-source software (OSS) licensing has emerged as a pivotal trend, reshaping the way organizations, developers, and users interact with software. The notion of open source, predicated on principles of collaboration, transparency, and accessibility, stands in stark contrast to proprietary models, offering a unique set of advantages and challenges. This paper presents a collection of thirteen patterns that underpin the adoption and implementation of OSS Licensing in various contexts. Five of these patterns are described in full as a first step of forming a proper pattern language in this domain: The Open Source License Selection pattern guides choosing the right license, supported by License Education to ensure stakeholders understand the implications. Permissive Licensing promotes flexibility and broad adoption, while Copyleft Encouragement maintains the openness of derivative works. License Enforcement ensures compliance with selected licensing, safeguarding adherence to its terms. The remaining eight patterns are listed as patlets. For OSS practitioners, these patterns provide a basis for a balanced approach to open-source license management, supporting openness while maintaining necessary controls.},

abstract = {Software composition analysis (SCA) tools have been widely adopted to identify vulnerable libraries used in software applications. Such SCA tools depend on a vulnerability database to know affected libraries of each vulnerability. However, it is labor-intensive and error prone for a security team to manually maintain the vulnerability database. While several approaches adopt extreme multi-label learning to predict affected libraries for vulnerabilities, they are practically ineffective due to the limited library labels and the unawareness of ecosystems.To address these problems, we first conduct an empirical study to assess the quality of two fields, i.e., affected libraries and their ecosystems, for four vulnerability databases. Our study reveals notable inconsistency and inaccuracy in these two fields. Then, we propose Holmes to identify affected libraries and their ecosystems for vulnerabilities via a learning-to-rank technique. The key idea of Holmes is to gather various evidences about affected libraries and their ecosystems from multiple sources, and learn to rank a pool of libraries based on their relevance to evidences. Our extensive experiments have shown the effectiveness, efficiency and usefulness of Holmes.},

abstract = {Open source software (OSS) licenses regulate the conditions under which OSS can be legally reused, distributed, and modified. However, a common issue arises when incorporating third-party OSS accompanied with licenses, i.e., license incompatibility, which occurs when multiple licenses exist in one project and there are conflicts between them. Despite being problematic, fixing license incompatibility issues requires substantial efforts due to the lack of license understanding and complex package dependency. In this paper, we propose LiResolver, a fine-grained, scalable, and flexible tool to resolve license incompatibility issues for open source software. Specifically, it first understands the semantics of licenses through fine-grained entity extraction and relation extraction. Then, it detects and resolves license incompatibility issues by recommending official licenses in priority. When no official licenses can satisfy the constraints, it generates a custom license as an alternative solution. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of LiResolver, with 4.09% false positive (FP) rate and 0.02% false negative (FN) rate for incompatibility issue localization, and 62.61% of 230 real-world incompatible projects resolved by LiResolver. We discuss the feedback from OSS developers and the lessons learned from this work. All the datasets and the replication package of LiResolver have been made publicly available to facilitate follow-up research.},

abstract = {The exponential growth of open-source package ecosystems, particularly NPM and PyPI, has led to an alarming increase in software supply chain poisoning attacks. Existing static analysis methods struggle with high false positive rates and are easily thwarted by obfuscation and dynamic code execution techniques. While dynamic analysis approaches offer improvements, they often suffer from capturing non-package behaviors and employing simplistic testing strategies that fail to trigger sophisticated malicious behaviors. To address these challenges, we present OSCAR, a robust dynamic code poisoning detection pipeline for NPM and PyPI ecosystems. OSCAR fully executes packages in a sandbox environment, employs fuzz testing on exported functions and classes, and implements aspect-based behavior monitoring with tailored API hook points. We evaluate OSCAR against six existing tools using a comprehensive benchmark dataset of real-world malicious and benign packages. OSCAR achieves an F1 score of 0.95 in NPM and 0.91 in PyPI, confirming that OSCAR is as effective as the current state-of-the-art technologies. Furthermore, for benign packages exhibiting characteristics typical of malicious packages, OSCAR reduces the false positive rate by an average of 32.06% in NPM (from 34.63% to 2.57%) and 39.87% in PyPI (from 41.10% to 1.23%), compared to other tools, significantly reducing the workload of manual reviews in real-world deployments. In cooperation with Ant Group, a leading financial technology company, we have deployed OSCAR on its NPM and PyPI mirrors since January 2023, identifying 10,404 malicious NPM packages and 1,235 malicious PyPI packages over 18 months. This work not only bridges the gap between academic research and industrial application in code poisoning detection but also provides a robust and practical solution that has been thoroughly tested in a real-world industrial setting.},

abstract = {Open source software (OSS) licenses regulate the conditions under which users can reuse, modify, and distribute the software legally. However, there exist various OSS licenses in the community, written in a formal language, which are typically long and complicated to understand. In this paper, we conducted a 661-participants online survey to investigate the perspectives and practices of developers towards OSS licenses. The user study revealed an indeed need for an automated tool to facilitate license understanding. Motivated by the user study and the fast growth of licenses in the community, we propose the first study towards automated license summarization. Specifically, we released the first high quality text summarization dataset and designed two tasks, i.e., license text summarization (LTS), aiming at generating a relatively short summary for an arbitrary license, and license term classification (LTC), focusing on the attitude inference towards a predefined set of key license terms (e.g., Distribute). Aiming at the two tasks, we present LiSum, a multi-task learning method to help developers overcome the obstacles of understanding OSS licenses. Comprehensive experiments demonstrated that the proposed jointly training objective boosted the performance on both tasks, surpassing state-of-the-art baselines with gains of at least 5 points w.r.t. F1 scores of four summarization metrics and achieving 95.13% micro average F1 score for classification simultaneously. We released all the datasets, the replication package, and the questionnaires for the community.},

abstract = {Trustworthy Open Source Software (OSS) development processes are the basis that secures the long-term trustworthiness of software projects and products. With the aim to investigate the trustworthiness of the Pull Request (PR) process, the common model of collaborative development in OSS community, we exploit process mining to identify and analyze the normal and anomalous patterns of PR processes, and propose our approach to identifying anomalies from both control-flow and semantic aspects, and then to analyze and synthesize the root causes of the identified anomalies. We analyze 17531 PRs of 18 OSS projects on GitHub, extracting 26 root causes of control-flow anomalies and 19 root causes of semantic anomalies. We find that most PRs can hardly contain both semantic anomalies and control-flow anomalies, and the internal custom rules in projects may be the key causes for the identified anomalous PRs. We further discover and analyze the patterns of normal PR processes. We find that PRs in the non-fork model (42%) are far more likely than the fork model (5%) to bypass the review process, indicating a higher potential risk. Besides, we analyzed nine poisoned projects whose PR practices were indeed worse. Given the complex and diverse PR processes in OSS community, the proposed approach can help identify and understand not only anomalous PRs but also normal PRs, which offers early risk indications of suspicious incidents (such as poisoning) to OSS supply chain.},

abstract = {The software development process, shaped by stakeholder feedback, encompasses the creation of diverse versions tailored for customization and addressing hardware limitations. Maintaining these versions involves initiating the transfer of changes for reuse. In the context of a pull-based development model, where the development branch remains current, the term "backporting" is coined to sustain stable versions. Stability requirements may necessitate fewer changes, compatible modifications, or security checks. Consequently, we conducted an analysis of 37,460 backports from 223,602 pull requests in open-source GitHub projects, aiming to identify types of incompatibilities encountered in real-life scenarios. We manually pinpointed various reasons why pull requests may lack compatibility with other versions, including contextual differences, varying dependencies, and statement-level alterations. This study constitutes the inaugural comprehensive characterization of changesets during the porting process across different versions with incompatibilities. The acquired insights can serve as a foundation for automated slicing and adaptation of changesets in stable software versions.},

abstract = {Selecting an appropriate task is challenging for newcomers to Open Source Software (OSS) projects. Therefore, researchers and OSS projects have proposed strategies to label tasks (a.k.a. issues). Several approaches relying on machine learning techniques, historical information, and textual analysis have been submitted. However, the results vary, and these approaches are still far from mainstream adoption, possibly because of a lack of good predictors. Inspired by previous research, we advocate that the prediction models might benefit from leveraging social metrics.In this research, we investigate how to assist the new contributors in finding a task when onboarding a new project. To achieve our goal, we predict the skills needed to solve an open issue by labeling them with the categories of APIs declared in the source code (API-domain labels) that should be updated or implemented. Starting from a case study using one project and an empirical experiment, we found the API-domain labels were relevant to select an issue for a contribution. In the sequence, we investigated employing interviews and a survey of what strategies maintainers the strategies believe the communities have to adopt to assist the new contributors in finding a task. We also studied how maintainers think about new contributors' strategies to pick a task. We found maintainers, frequent contributors, and new contributors diverge about the importance of the communities and new contributors' strategies.The ongoing research works in three directions: 1) generalization of the approach, 2) Use of conversation data metrics for predictions, 3) Demonstration of the approach, and 4) Matching contributors and tasks skills.By addressing the lack of knowledge about the skills in tasks, we hope to assist new contributors in picking tasks with more confidence.},

abstract = {As the AI revolution unfolds, the push toward automating support systems in diverse professional fields ranging from open-source software to healthcare, and banking to transportation has become more pronounced. Central to the automation of these systems is the early detection of named entities, a task that is foundational yet fraught with challenges due to the need for domain-specific expert annotations amid a backdrop of specialized terminologies, making the process both costly and complex. In response to this challenge, our paper presents an innovative named entity recognition (NER) framework () tailored for the open-source software domain. Our method stands out by employing a distantly supervised, two-step annotation process that cleverly exploits language heuristics, bespoke lookup tables, external knowledge bases, and an active learning model. This multifaceted strategy not only elevates model performance but also addresses the critical hurdles of high costs and the dearth of expert annotators. A notable achievement of our approach is its capability to enable pre-large language models (pre-LLMs) to significantly outperform specially designed generic/domain specific LLMs for NER tasks. We also show the effectiveness of NER in the downstream task of relation extraction.},

abstract = {Career path prediction is an important task in computational jobs marketplace. Recent advances in data science and artificial intelligence have imposed a huge recruitment demand on talents in the IT field. Previous studies predict a talent’s next job title solely based on her past experience in the resume, which can lead to errors if the resume contains fake information. With the popularity of open-source software, we argue that the next job title can be predicted based on a candidate’s past expertise in the open-source community. On the other hand, the career path can also affect the development of a talent’s expertise. Motivated by the observation, we propose to predict the job titles of IT talents as a dual task of forecasting their expertise development in open-source software. To solve the task, we design a dual learning model DualJE that leverages both the data-level and model-level duality. Experimental results show that DualJE is effective and performs much better than comparative models. A replication package for this work is available at .},

abstract = {Background: Open Source Software (OSS) fuels our global digital infrastructure but is commonly maintained by small groups of people whose time and labor represent a depletable resource. For the OSS projects to stay sustainable, i.e., viable and maintained over time without interruption or weakening, maintenance labor requires an underlying infrastructure to be supported and secured. Aims: Using the construct of human infrastructure, our study aims to investigate how maintenance labor can be supported and secured to enable the creation and maintenance of sustainable OSS projects, viewed from the maintainers’ perspective. Method: In our exploration, we interviewed ten maintainers from nine well-adopted OSS projects. We coded the data in two steps using investigator-triangulation. Results: We constructed a framework of infrastructure design that provide insight for OSS projects in the design of their human infrastructure. The framework specifically highlight the importance of human factors, e.g., securing a work-life balance and proactively managing social pressure, toxicity, and diversity. We also note both differences and overlaps in how the infrastructure needs to support and secure maintenance labor from maintainers and the wider OSS community, respectively. Funding is specifically highlighted as an important enabler for both types of resources. Conclusions: The study contributes to the qualitative understanding of the importance, sensitivity, and risk for depletion of the maintenance labor required to build and maintain healthy OSS projects. Human infrastructure is pivotal in ensuring that maintenance labor is sustainable, and by extension the OSS projects on which we all depend.},

abstract = {So far, the relationship between open science and software engineering expertise has largely focused on the open release of software engineering research insights and reproducible artifacts, in the form of open-access papers, open data, and open-source tools and libraries. In this position paper, we draw attention to another perspective: scientific insight itself is a complex and collaborative artifact under continuous development and in need of continuous quality assurance, and as such, has many parallels to software artifacts. Considering current calls for more open, collaborative and reproducible science; increasing demands for public accountability on matters of scientific integrity and credibility; methodological challenges coming with transdisciplinary science; political and communication tensions when scientific insight on societally relevant topics is to be translated to policy; and struggles to incentivize and reward academics who truly want to move into these directions beyond traditional publishing habits and cultures, we make the parallels between the emerging open science requirements and concepts already well-known in (open-source) software engineering research more explicit. We argue that the societal impact of software engineering expertise can reach far beyond the software engineering research community, and call upon the community members to pro-actively help driving the necessary systems and cultural changes towards more open and accountable research.},

However, little is known about how OSS developers view the relative benefits and drawbacks of governmental funding compared to other funding sources. This study explores this question through a case study on scikit-learn, a Python library for machine learning, funded by public research grants, commercial sponsorship, micro-donations, and a €32 million grant announced in France's artificial intelligence strategy. Through 25 interviews with scikit-learn's maintainers and funders, this study makes two key contributions. First, it contributes empirical findings about the benefits and drawbacks of public and private funding for OSS developers, and the governance protocols employed by the maintainers to balance the diverse interests of their funders and community. Second, it offers practical lessons on funding for OSS developers, governments, and companies based on the experience of scikit-learn. The paper concludes with recommendations for future research and practice.},

As a result, students will be able to explore the utility of CS and discover an exciting future in computing.},

abstract = {Designing and optimizing deep models require managing large datasets and conducting carefully designed controlled experiments that depend on large sets of hyper-parameters and problem dependent software/data configurations. These experiments are executed by training the model under observation with varying configurations. Since executing a typical training run can take days even on proven acceleration fabrics such as Graphics Processing Units (GPU), properly managing training data, avoiding human error in configuration preparations and securing the repeatability of the experiments are of utmost importance. In this paper, we present two open source software tools that aim to achieve these goals, namely, a Dataset Manager (DatumAid) tool and a Training Automation Manager (OrchesTrain) tool. DatumAid is a software tool that integrates with Computer Vision Annotation Tool (CVAT) to facilitate the management of annotated datasets. By adding additional functionality, DatumAid allows users to filter labeled data, manipulate datasets, and export datasets for training purposes. The tool adopts a simple code structure while providing flexibility to users through configuration files. OrchesTrain aims to automate model training process by facilitating rapid preparation and training of models in the desired style for the intended tasks. Users can seamlessly integrate their models prepared in the PyTorch library into the system and leverage the full capabilities of OrchesTrain. It enables the simultaneous or separate usage of Wandb, MLflow, and TensorBoard loggers. To ensure reproducibility of the conducted experiments, all configurations and codes are saved to the selected logger in an appropriate structure within a YAML file along with the serialized model files. Both software tools are publicly available on GitHub.},

abstract = {Background: Governments worldwide are considering data privacy regulations. These laws, such as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), require software developers to meet privacy-related requirements when interacting with users’ data. Prior research describes the impact of such laws on software development, but only for commercial software. Although open-source software is commonly integrated into regulated software, and thus must be engineered or adapted for compliance, we do not know how such laws impact open-source software development. Aims: To understand how data privacy laws affect open-source software (OSS) development, we focus on the European Union’s GDPR, as it is the most prominent such law. We investigated how GDPR compliance activities influence OSS developer activity (RQ1), how OSS developers perceive fulfilling GDPR requirements (RQ2), the most challenging GDPR requirements to implement (RQ3), and how OSS developers assess GDPR compliance (RQ4). Method: We distributed an online survey to explore perceptions of GDPR implementations from open-source developers (N=56). To augment this analysis, we further conducted a repository mining study to analyze development metrics on pull requests (N=31,462) submitted to open-source GitHub repositories. Results: Our results suggest GDPR policies complicate OSS development and introduce challenges, primarily regarding the management of users’ data, implementation costs and time, and assessments of compliance. Moreover, we observed negative perceptions of the GDPR from OSS developers and significant increases in development activity, in particular metrics related to coding and reviewing, on GitHub pull requests related to GDPR compliance. Conclusions: Our findings provide future research directions and implications for improving data privacy policies, motivating the need for relevant resources and automated tools to support data privacy regulation implementation and compliance efforts in OSS.},

abstract = {The importance of social communities around open-source software projects has been recognized. Despite that a lot of relevant research focusing on this topic, understanding the structures and dynamics of communities around open-source software projects remains a tedious and challenging task. As a result, an easily accessible and useful application that enables project developers to gain awareness of the status and development of the project communities is desirable. In this paper, we present MyCommunity, a web-based online application system to automatically extract communication-based community structures from social coding platforms such as GitHub. Based on the detected community structures, the system analyzes and visualizes the community evolution history of a project with a set of semantic-rich events, and quantify the strength of community evolution with respect to different events with a series of indexes. Built-in support to quantitative analysis and machine learning tasks based on the quantitative evolutionary events are provided. We demonstrate the usefulness of the system by presenting its ability in predicting project success or failure with the community evolution features. The results suggest the system achieves a prediction accuracy of 88.5% with commonly available machine learning models.},

While reusing is a time and cost saving strategy, some of the key factors are often neglected that create vulnerability in the software system. We look beyond the static code analysis and dependency chain tracing to prevent vulnerabilities at the human factors level. Literature lacks a comprehensive study of the human factors perspective to the issue of trust in reusing open source projects. We performed an interview-based initial study with software developers to get an understanding of the trust issue and limitations among the practitioners.

abstract = {The development and training of deep learning models have become increasingly costly and complex. Consequently, software engineers are adopting pre-trained models (PTMs) for their downstream applications. The dynamics of the PTM supply chain remain largely unexplored, signaling a clear need for structured datasets that document not only the metadata but also the subsequent applications of these models. Without such data, the MSR community cannot comprehensively understand the impact of PTM adoption and reuse.This paper presents the PeaTMOSS dataset, which comprises metadata for 281,638 PTMs and detailed snapshots for all PTMs with over 50 monthly downloads (14,296 PTMs), along with 28,575 open-source software repositories from GitHub that utilize these models. Additionally, the dataset includes 44,337 mappings from 15,129 downstream GitHub repositories to the 2,530 PTMs they use. To enhance the dataset's comprehensiveness, we developed prompts for a large language model to automatically extract model metadata, including the model's training datasets, parameters, and evaluation metrics. Our analysis of this dataset provides the first summary statistics for the PTM supply chain, showing the trend of PTM development and common shortcomings of PTM package documentation. Our example application reveals inconsistencies in software licenses across PTMs and their dependent projects. PeaTMOSS lays the foundation for future research, offering rich opportunities to investigate the PTM supply chain. We outline mining opportunities on PTMs, their downstream usage, and cross-cutting questions.Our artifact is available at https://github.com/PurdueDualityLab/PeaTMOSS-Artifact.

abstract = {Without newcomers, open source software (OSS) projects are hardly sustainable. Yet, newcomers face a steep learning curve during OSS onboarding in which they must overcome a multitude of technical, social, and knowledge barriers. To ease the onboarding process, OSS communities are utilizing mentoring, task recommendation (e.g., "good first issues"), and engagement programs (e.g., Google Summer of Code). However, newcomers must first cultivate their motivation for OSS contribution and learn the necessary preliminaries before they can take advantage of these mechanisms. We believe this gap can be filled by a dedicated, practice-oriented OSS onboarding course. In this paper, we present our experience of teaching an OSS onboarding course at Peking University. The course contains a series of lectures, labs, and invited talks to prepare students with the required skills and motivate them to contribute to OSS. In addition, students are required to complete a semester-long course project in which they plan and make actual contributions to OSS projects. They can either contribute to some recommended OSS projects with dedicated mentors, or contribute to any OSS project they prefer. Finally, 16 out of the 19 enrolled students have successfully contributed to OSS projects, and five have retained. However, the onboarding trajectories, final contributions, and retention outcomes differ vastly between the two groups of students with different course project choices, yielding lessons for software engineering education.},

For example, toxic code review comments may raise pushback from an author to complete suggested changes. A toxic communication with another person may hamper future communication and collaboration. Research also suggests that toxicity disproportionately impacts newcomers, women, and other participants from marginalized groups. Therefore, toxicity is a barrier to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion. Since the occurrence of toxic communications is not uncommon among FOSS communities and such communications may have serious repercussions, the primary objective of my proposed dissertation is to automatically identify and mitigate toxicity during developers’ textual interactions. On this goal, I aim to: i) build an automated toxicity detector for Software Engineering (SE) domain, ii) identify the notion of toxicity across demographics, and iii) analyze the impacts of toxicity on the outcomes of Open Source Software (OSS) projects.},

However, due to these OSS projects’ collaborative and community-based nature, they often lack resources to focus on quality aspects, such as efficiency and usability. This research aims to apply the adapted Interface Content Model usability technique in the open-source software Koodo Reader project. We participated as volunteers in this project, although we did not have the authorization of the leading developer. To validate the effectiveness of the adapted technique, tests were conducted with representative users, covering a variety of interactions with the Koodo Reader interface. The results of these tests were used for prototyping, which was evaluated and validated by the user community of the Koodo Reader project. In conclusion, the successful application of the Interface Content Modeling technique has proven to be a tool that helps improve the quality of projects. It makes it easier for the developer community to collaborate to improve the end-user experience and make the project more appealing to users. This case exemplifies how collaboration and teamwork in the OSS context can generate innovative and effective solutions.},

abstract = {Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) has become the fundamental infrastructure of mainstream software projects. FOSS is subject to various legal terms and restrictions, depending on the type of open source license in force. Hence it is important to remain compliant with the FOSS license terms. Identifying the licenses that provide FOSS and understanding the terms of those licenses is not easy, especially when dealing with a large amount of reuse that is common in modern software development. Since reused software is often large, automated license analysis is needed to address these issues and support users in license compliant reuse of FOSS. However, existing license assessment tools can only identify the name and quantity of licenses embedded in software and thus cannot identify whether the licenses are being used safely and correctly. Moreover, they cannot provide a comprehensive analysis of the compatibility and potential risk that come with the term conflicts.In this paper, we propose DIKE, an automated tool that can perform license detection and conflict analysis for FOSS. First, DIKE extracts 12 terms under 3,256 unique open source licenses by manual analysis and Natural Language Processing (NLP) and constructs a license knowledge base containing the responsibilities of the terms. Second, DIKE scans all licenses from the code snippet for the input software and outputs the scan results in a tree structure. Third, the scan results match the license knowledge base to detect license conflicts from terms and conditions. DIKE designs two solutions for software with license conflicts: license replacement and code replacement. To demonstrate the effectiveness of DIKE, we first evaluate with the term extraction and responsibility classification, and the results show that their F1-scores reach 0.816 and 0.948, respectively. In addition, we conduct a measurement study of 16,341 popular projects from GitHub based on our proposed DIKE to explore the conflict of license usage in FOSS. The results show that 1,787 open source licenses are used in the project, and 27.2% of licenses conflict. Our new findings suggest that conflicts are prevalent in FOSS, warning the open source community about intellectual property risks.},

Within a community of 585,000 users and only a few developers that is dedicated to save and share surplus food, we explore the concepts of ‘intermediary experience’. We also introduce the notion of ‘serendipitous connections’, highlighting the unintentional yet beneficial associations that can arise from the collaboration between developers and users.},

abstract = {Software evolution is the process of developing, maintaining, and updating software systems. It is known that the software systems tend to increase their complexity and size over their evolution to meet the demands required by the users. Due to this fact, researchers have increasingly carried out studies on software evolution to understand the systems' evolution pattern and propose techniques to overcome inherent problems in software evolution. Many of these works collect data but do not make them publicly available. Many datasets on software evolution are outdated, and/or are small, and some of them do not provide time series from software metrics. We propose an extensive software evolution dataset with temporal information about open-source Java systems. To build this dataset, we proposed a methodology of four steps: selecting the systems using a criterion, extracting and measuring their releases, and generating their time series. Our dataset contains time series of 46 software metrics extracted from 46 open-source Java systems, and we make it publicly available.},

A fork is a copy of the original repository that can evolve independently from the parent repository, allowing developers to experiment with a code base or test new features without the danger of affecting the original project. A fork can result in changes that are pushed back to the original project or even evolve into an independent project. Some projects tend to be forked extensively to the point where their forks are also forked and form families of projects. In this work, we explore the motiva­tion, the practices and the culture of forking open-source software repositories. In particular, we study how forks evolve compared to the parent repository, how they are related to pull requests, how they contribute back to the parent, and how dependencies, in terms of libraries or external modules defined in a build script, are shared or differ within project families. Finally, we relate our findings with how communication and collaboration occurs within software families.},

abstract = {In the GitHub open-source collaborative development scenario, each entity type and the link relationship between them have natural heterogeneous attributes. In order to improve the accuracy of project recommendation, it is necessary to effectively integrate this multi-source information. Therefore, for the project recommendation scenario, this paper defines an open source weighted heterogeneous information network to represent the different entity types and link relationships in the GitHub open source collaborative development scenario, and effectively model the complex interaction among developers, projects and other entities. Using the weighted heterogeneous information network embedding method, extract and use the rich structural and semantic information in the weighted heterogeneous open source information network to learn the node representation of developers and projects, and fuse the personalized nonlinear fusion function into the matrix decomposition model for open source project recommendation. Finally, this paper makes a large number of comparative experiments based on the real GitHub open data set, and compares it with other project recommendation methods to verify the effectiveness of our proposed open source project recommendation model. At the same time, it also explores the impact of different metapaths on the effect of project recommendation. The experimental results show that the recommendation method based on heterogeneous information network can effectively improve the recommendation quality.},

abstract = {Curricula recommendation for undergraduate Software Engineering courses underscore the importance of transcending from traditional lecture format to actively involving students in time-limited, iterative development practices. This paper presents a teaching approach for a software testing course that integrates theory and practical experience through the utilization of both TBL and active contributions to OSS projects. The paper reports on our experience implementing the pedagogical approach over four consecutive semesters of a Software Testing course within an undergraduate Software Engineering program. The experience encompassed both online and in-person classes, involving a substantial cohort of over 300 students spanning four semesters. Students' perceptions regarding the course are analyzed and compared with previous, related studies. Our results are positively aligned with the existing literature of software engineering teaching, confirming the effectiveness of combining TBL with OSS contributions. Additionally, our survey has shed light on the challenges that students encounter during their first contribution to OSS projects, highlighting the need for targeted solutions. Overall, the experience demonstrates that the proposed pedagogical structure can effectively facilitate the transition from theoretical knowledge to real-world practice in the domain of Software Testing.},

abstract = {User forums of Open Source Software (OSS) enable end-users to collaboratively discuss problems concerning the OSS applications. Despite decades of research on OSS, we know very little about how end-users engage with OSS communities on these forums, in particular, the challenges that hinder their continuous and meaningful participation in the OSS community. Many previous works are developer-centric and overlook the importance of end-user forums. As a result, end-users' expectations are seldom reflected in OSS development. To better understand user behaviors in OSS user forums, we carried out an empirical study analyzing about 1.3 million posts from user forums of four popular OSS applications: Zotero, Audacity, VLC, and RStudio. Through analyzing the contribution patterns of three common user types (end-users, developers, and organizers), we observed that end-users not only initiated most of the threads (above 96% of threads in three projects, 86% in the other), but also acted as the significant contributors for responding to other users' posts, even though they tended to lack confidence in their activities as indicated by psycho-linguistic analyses. Moreover, we found end-users more open, reflecting a more positive emotion in communication than organizers and developers in the forums. Our work contributes new knowledge about end-users' activities and behaviors in OSS user forums that the vital OSS stakeholders can leverage to improve end-user engagement in the OSS development process.},

We leverage the full history of developers’ interactions with their teammates and projects at github.com between January 2010 and April 2017 (representing about 133 million interactions) to establish that – contrary to a common narrative describing open source as a pure “technical meritocracy” – developers’ communication abilities and community building skills are significant predictors of whether they emerge as team leaders. Inspirational communication therefore appears as central to the process of leader emergence in virtual teams, even in a setting like OSS, where technical contributions have often been conceptualized as the sole pathway to gaining community recognition. Those results should be of interest to researchers and practitioners theorizing about OSS in particular and, more generally, leadership in geographically dispersed virtual teams, as well as to online community managers.},

abstract = {Background: Accurate representation of developer expertise has always been an important research problem. While a number of studies proposed novel methods of representing expertise within individual projects, these methods are difficult to apply at an ecosystem level. However, with the focus of software development shifting from monolithic to modular, a method of representing developers' expertise in the context of the entire OSS development becomes necessary when, for example, a project tries to find new maintainers and look for developers with relevant skills. Aim: We aim to address this knowledge gap by proposing and constructing the Skill Space where each API, developer, and project is represented and postulate how the topology of this space should reflect what developers know (and projects need). Method: we use the World of Code infrastructure to extract the complete set of APIs in the files changed by open source developers and, based on that data, employ Doc2Vec embeddings for vector representations of APIs, developers, and projects. We then evaluate if these embeddings reflect the postulated topology of the Skill Space by predicting what new APIs/projects developers use/join, and whether or not their pull requests get accepted. We also check how the developers' representations in the Skill Space align with their self-reported API expertise. Result: Our results suggest that the proposed embeddings in the Skill Space appear to satisfy the postulated topology and we hope that such representations may aid in the construction of signals that increase trust (and efficiency) of open source ecosystems at large and may aid investigations of other phenomena related to developer proficiency and learning.},

abstract = {Abstract: Open Source Software (OSS) is extensively utilized in industry and government because it allows for open access to the source code and allows for external involvement in the software development process. There are several factors driving this movement in a government setting, making it difficult to assess the adoption's success. Through a study of billions of rows of GitHub activity data, this research analyzes the production of OSS by administrations in German-speaking countries in detail and analyses the motivating factors and challenges to OSS adoption through a literature review. Similar studies have been conducted in other nations, with somewhat different approaches, foci, and different ways to identify public GitHub users as well as insiders and outsiders of OSS projects. 16 consequences of OSS usage and development are listed in the paper. On GitHub, we found 1021 OSS projects run by public agencies in largly German-speaking nations. We then compiled a list of the most popular projects based on commits and the most active public agencies in terms of projects. The research also finds automatic contributions by bots, which have not been taken into account in the literature so far, and demonstrates highly substantial positive correlations between commits, forks, and stars as proxy for the popularity of these projects. This research introduces a new method for identifying government organizations in OSS platforms and illuminates the possible positive and negative effects of the public sector's release and adoption of open source software.},

abstract = {A sound Decision-Making (DM) process is key to the successful governance of software projects. In many Open Source Software Development (OSSD) communities, DM processes lie buried amongst vast amounts of publicly available data. Hidden within this data lie the rationale for decisions that led to the evolution and maintenance of software products. While there have been some efforts to extract DM processes from publicly available data, the rationale behind 'how' the decisions are made have seldom been explored. Extracting the rationale for these decisions can facilitate transparency (by making them known), and also promote accountability on the part of decision-makers. This work bridges this gap by means of a large-scale study that unearths the rationale behind decisions from Python development email archives comprising about 1.5 million emails. This paper makes two main contributions. First, it makes a knowledge contribution by unearthing and presenting the rationale behind decisions made. Second, it makes a methodological contribution by presenting a heuristics-based rationale extraction system called Rationale Miner that employs multiple heuristics, and follows a data-driven, bottom-up approach to infer the rationale behind specific decisions (e.g., whether a new module is implemented based on core developer consensus or benevolent dictator's pronouncement). Our approach can be applied to extract rationale in other OSSD communities that have similar governance structures.},

However, there are modeling languages, tool chains, and tool frameworks that are developed and maintained in an open-source manner but still incorporate COTS tools. Such an incorporation of COTS tools into an overall open-source approach completely annihilates the actual open-source advantages and goals. In this tool paper, we demonstrate how we eliminated a COTS tool from the otherwise open-source-based generation and evolution workflow of the domain-specific modeling language East-Adl, used in the automotive industry to describe a variety of interdisciplinary aspects of vehicle systems. By switching to a pure open-source solution, East-Adl becomes easier to inspect, evolve, and develop a community around. We compare both the mixed COTS/open-source and the open-source-only workflows, outline the advantages of the open-source-only solution, and show that we achieve equivalent tooling features compared to the original approach.},

We provide these as a dataset detailing their provenance and properties. A manual evaluation of a dataset sample shows an identification accuracy of 89%.

abstract = {Background: Software smells reflect the sub-optimal patterns in the software. In a similar way, community smells consider the sub-optimal patterns in the organizational and social structures of software teams. Related work performed empirical studies to identify the relationship between community smells and software smells at the architecture and code levels. However, how community smells relate with design smells is still unknown. Aims: In this paper, we empirically investigate the relationship between community smells and design smells during the evolution of software projects. Method: We apply three statistical methods: correlation, trend, and information gain analysis to empirically examine the relationship between community and design smells in 100 releases of 10 large-scale Apache open-source software projects. Results: Our results reveal that the relationship between community and design smells varies across the analyzed projects. We find significant correlations and trend similarities for one type of community smell (when developers work in isolation without peer communication—Missing Links) with design smells in most of the analyzed projects. Furthermore, the results of our statistical model disclose that community smells are more relevant for design smells compared to other community-related factors. Conclusion: Our results find that the relationship of community smells (in particular, the Missing Links smell) exists with design smells. Based on our findings, we discuss specific community smell refactoring techniques that should be done together when refactoring design smells so that the problems associated with the social and technical (design) aspects of the projects can be managed concurrently.},

Open source licenses such as GPL, MIT, Apache, Mozilla, BSD, etc have varying terms and conditions for usage, modification, and distribution. Given the availability of source code for open source software, it is difficult to scrutinize adherence of licenses and more often than not it is left to the good faith of organizations and individuals. Violation of licensing terms knowingly or unknowingly can lead to copyright, ethical, compliance and security issues. In this paper, we propose a blockchain based approach in managing open source software licenses by enforcing certain practices to improve awareness and increase transparency, thus minimizing the possibility of violations. We present a solution design that relies on the use of 4 modules: InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), Smart contracts, Transaction manager (Meta-Mask) and a Permissioned Blockchain to enforce the conformance of licenses.},

Our findings reveal that the most frequent expectations include enhancing the feedback bots provide to developers, reducing the maintenance burden for developers, and enforcing code coverage. While maintainers report that bots satisfied their expectations, they also perceived unexpected effects, such as communication noise and newcomers' dropout. Based on these results, we provide a series of implications for bot developers, as well as insights for future research.},

abstract = {Background: A consistent body of research and practice have identified that technical debt provides valuable and actionable insight into the design and implementation deficiencies of complex software systems. Existing software tools enable characterizing and measuring the amount of technical debt at selective granularity levels; by providing a computational model, they enable stakeholders to measure and ultimately control this phenomenon. Aims: In this paper we aim to study the evolution and characteristics of technical debt in open-source software. For this, we carry out a longitudinal study that covers the entire development history of several complex applications. The goal is to improve our understanding of how the amount and composition of technical debt changes in evolving software. We also study how new technical debt is introduced in software, as well as identify how developers handle its accumulation over the long term. Method: We carried out our evaluation using three complex, open-source Java applications. All 110 released versions, covering more than 10 years of development history for each application were analyzed using SonarQube. We studied how the amount, composition and history of technical debt changed during development, compared our results across the studied applications and present our most important findings. Results: For each application, we identified key versions during which large amounts of technical debt were added, removed or both. This had significantly more impact when compared to the lines of code or class count increases that generally occurred during development. However, within each version, we found high correlation between file lines of code and technical debt. We observed that the Pareto principle was satisfied for the studied applications, as 20% of issue types generated around 80% of total technical debt. Interestingly, there was a large degree of overlap between the issues that generated most of the debt across the studied applications. Conclusions: Early application versions showed greater fluctuation in the amount of existing technical debt. We found application size to be an unreliable predictor for the quantity of technical debt. Most debt was introduced in applications as part of milestone releases that expanded their feature set; likewise, we identified releases where extensive refactoring significantly reduced the level of debt. We also discovered that technical debt issues persist for a long time in source code, and their removal did not appear to be prioritized according to type or severity.},

The students learned about FOSS principles and processes and were introduced to humanitarian FOSS (HFOSS). They completed pre-semester surveys and engaged in a three-stage project selection process. The types of projects that students considered (FOSS or HFOSS) support the assertion that computing with social value is appealing to both females and students in underrepresented groups. Analysis of pre-semester attitude surveys adds additional insight and suggests further avenues for investigation.},

Substantial research was done to investigate central projects such as Linux kernel but we have only a limited understanding of how the periphery of the larger OSS ecosystem is interconnected through technical dependencies, code sharing, and knowledge flows. We aim to close this gap by a) creating a nearly complete and rapidly updateable collection of version control data for FLOSS projects; b) by cleaning, correcting, and augmenting the data to measure several types of dependencies among code, developers, and projects; c) by creating models that rely on the resulting supply chains to investigate structural and dynamic properties of the entire OSS. The current implementation is capable of being updated each month, occupies over 300Tb of disk space with 1.5B commits and 12B git objects. Highly accurate algorithms to correct identity data and extract dependencies from the source code are used to characterize the current structure of OSS and the way it has evolved. In particular, models of technology spread demonstrate the implicit factors developers use when choosing software components. We expect the resulting research platform will both spur investigations on how the huge periphery in OSS both sustains and is sustained by the central OSS projects and, as a result, will increase resiliency and effectiveness of the OSS.},

abstract = {We learned from the history of software that great software are the ones who manage to sustain their quality. Free and open source software (FOSS) has become a serious software supply channel. However, trust on FOSS products is still an issue. Quality is a trait that enhances trust. In my study, I investigate the following question: how do FOSS communities sustain their software quality? I argue that human and social factors contribute to the sustainability of quality in FOSS communities. Amongst these factors are: the motivation of participants, robust governance style for the software change process, and the exercise of good practices in the pull requests evaluation process.},

abstract = {Software Engineering courses often emphasize teaching methodologies and concepts in small and controlled environments over teaching, say, maintenance aspects of full-fledged real software systems. This decision is partly justified due to the difficulty of bringing to the context of a classroom a real software project. The widespread presence of open source projects, however, is contributing to alleviating this problem. Several instructors have already adopted contributions to open source projects as part of their evaluation process, and these instructors reported many benefits, including the improvement on students' technical and social skills. However, little is known about the students' perceptions regarding the need to contribute to an open source project as part of a Software Engineering course. To better understand the students' challenges, benefits, and attitudes, we conducted 21 semi-structured interviews with students who took these courses in five different Brazilian universities. We also enriched this data with an analysis of commits performed in the repositories that students contributed to. We observed that even though some instructors chose the open source projects to students to work themselves, some students and even the open source community participated in the process of choosing projects and tasks. Students' contributions varied concerning both complexity (measured by the number of additions, deletions, and edited files) and diversity (measured regarding the different programming languages used). Among the benefits, students reported improving their technical skills and their self-confidence. Finally, some students found extremely important for instructors' being involved with open source initiatives (extra-classroom).},

abstract = {Finding real examples that follow the evolution of Software Engineering is not an easy task for instructors in the field. Open Source Software (OSS) projects have been an alternative to support education in Software Engineering, as they allow contact with real development projects and environments. However, the adoption of these projects in the classroom presents some obstacles, such as choosing the appropriate project, and the time and effort needed to prepare the classes and get used to the open source environment. In order to reduce the difficulties faced by instructors, we are working on developing a portal to catalog worked examples extracted from OSS projects to assist instructors. In this paper, we present the first steps towards creating this catalog, which is creating a pattern for guiding the structuring the worked examples. We are applying the Design Science Research paradigm. The activities reported in this paper regards the first Design Cycle, and were divided into three stages related to the elaboration and evaluation of the pattern for cataloging the worked examples. In these stages, we carried out focus groups and interviews with Software Engineering instructors, including the instantiation of the pattern to catalog actual worked examples. After each stage, we had a new and improved version of the pattern for cataloging the worked examples. Such pattern served as a basis to create the first version of the worked examples portal, which will be evaluated in the next stages of the research.},

It is very important for open source projects to be impactful, i.e., to attract attentions from the open source development community, so as to gain support on development, testing as well as maintenance from the community. However, the question of what factors affect open source project impact, remains largely open. Given the numerous confounding factors and the complex correlations among the factors, it is a challenge to answer the question. In this study, we gather a large dataset from GitHub and provide empirical insights on this question base on a data-driven approach. We randomly collect 146,286 projects from GitHub and then adopt data analysis techniques to automatically analyze the correlations of different features with the software project impact. We also provide suggestions on how to potentially make open source projects impactful base on our analysis results.},

abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is usually developed by heterogeneous groups of people, each with their own interests, motivations and abilities. Therefore, it is important to establish the best software development and contributing practices early in the life-time of the project. Such practices should foster the contributors’ involvement in the OSS project as quickly as possible. The sustainability of an OSS project is heavily based on the underlying community of contributors and on the knowledge and skills they bring to the project and they acquire and develop through their participation in the project and interaction with the project community. Therefore, identifying and investigating contributors’ learning processes is an important research area in OSS.This survey paper presents an overview of open source learning methods in order to explore how community interaction impacts the development and application of OSS learning processes in other areas, especially in education. It is argued that collaboration with peers and consistent code contributions result in learning progress in OSS. Typical research in this area is based on case by case analysis, whereas this survey tries to highlight and combine the outcomes of several research contributions from the literature.},

abstract = {The supply chain is an extremely successful way to cope with the risk posed by distributed decision making in product sourcing and distribution. While open source software has similarly distributed decision making and involves code and information flows similar to those in ordinary supply chains, the actual networks necessary to quantify and communicate risks in software supply chains have not been constructed on large scale. This work proposes to close this gap by measuring dependency, code reuse, and knowledge flow networks in open source software. We have done preliminary work by developing suitable tools and methods that rely on public version control data to measure and comparing these networks for R language and emberjs packages. We propose ways to calculate the three networks for the entirety of public software, evaluate their accuracy, and to provide public infrastructure to build risk assessment and mitigation tools for various individual and organizational participants in open sources software. We hope that this infrastructure will contribute to more predictable experience with OSS and lead to its even wider adoption.},

abstract = {Software Engineering researchers and practitioners have sought a systematic way of characterizing technical and social behaviors in software development, from the perspective of either an artifact (e.g. design pattern) or an actor (e.g. developer). In this context, influencers are those who guide the development methods and disseminate patterns due to their popularity or status in the community. Especially in software ecosystems, the dynamics of interactions with interventions of external developers over a common technological platform leverage the effects of influence and still remains as a challenge. This paper presents an exploratory study on the sense of influence in open source software ecosystems, more specifically from the opinions of 95 developers who contribute to npm projects based on GitHub. To do so, qualitative data from a conducted survey research were analyzed based on Grounded Theory (GT) procedures. Based on two main categories (Technical and Social), we recognized aspects that reinforce some key characteristics of an influencer, e.g., 'status in the project', 'participation with code', 'participation with comments ', and 'content value'. However, some diverging aspects were observed, e.g., the difference between qualitative and quantitative responses related to 'long-time interaction with the project'. This study contributes with the identification of influencers' characteristics that can aid both researchers in further studies on open source software ecosystems and practitioners in strategies to manage project-based ecosystems.},

This paper serves as a non-trivial first step towards resolving this challenge by demonstrating a methodology and establishing knowledge to understand how the contributors' roles and their dynamics, reflected in the activities contributors perform, are exhibited in OSS communities. Based on an analysis of user action data from 29 GitHub projects, we extracted six activities that distinguished four Active roles and five Supporting roles of OSS contributors, as well as patterns in role changes. Through the lens of the Activity Theory, these findings provided rich design guidelines for OSS tools to support diverse contributor roles.},

abstract = {Motivation: Society’s dependence on Open Source Software (OSS) and the communities that maintain the OSS is ever-growing. So are the potential risks of, e.g., vulnerabilities being introduced in projects not actively maintained. By assessing an OSS project’s capability to stay viable and maintained over time without interruption or weakening, i.e., the OSS health, users can consider the risk implied by using the OSS as is, and if necessary, decide whether to help improve the health or choose another option. However, such assessment is complex as OSS health covers a wide range of sub-topics, and existing support is limited. Aim: We aim to create an overview of characteristics that affect the health of an OSS project and enable the assessment thereof. Method: We conduct a snowball literature review based on a start set of 9 papers, and identify 146 relevant papers over two iterations of forward and backward snowballing. Health characteristics are elicited and coded using structured and axial coding into a framework structure. Results: The final framework consists of 107 health characteristics divided among 15 themes. Characteristics address the socio-technical spectrum of the community of actors maintaining the OSS project, the software and other deliverables being maintained, and the orchestration facilitating the maintenance. Characteristics are further divided based on the level of abstraction they address, i.e., the OSS project-level specifically, or the project’s overarching ecosystem of related OSS projects. Conclusion: The framework provides an overview of the wide span of health characteristics that may need to be considered when evaluating OSS health and can serve as a foundation both for research and practice.},

The aim of our research is to adopt the HTA usability technique in the OpenOffice Writer OSS project and determine the feasibility of adapting the technique for application. To do this, we participated as volunteers in the project. We used the case study research method during technique application and participation in the community. As a result, we identified adverse conditions that were an obstacle to technique application and modified the technique to make it applicable to OSS projects. We can conclude from our experience that these changes were helpful for applying the technique, using web artifacts like forums and collaborative tools like Cacoo, although it was not easy to recruit OSS users to participate in usability technique application.},

abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is a core part of virtually all software applications today. Due to the rapidly growing impact of OSS on society and the economy, the security aspect has attracted researchers' attention to investigate this distinctive phenomenon. Traditionally, research on OSS security has often focused on technical aspects of software development. We argue that these aspects are important, however, technical security practice considering different social aspects of OSS development will assure the effectiveness and efficiency of the implementation of the tool. To mitigate this research gap, in this empirical study, we explore the current security culture in the OSS development phenomenon using a survey instrument with six evaluation dimensions: attitude, behavior, competency, subjective norms, governance, and communication. By exploring the current security culture in OSS communities, we can start to understand the influence of security on participants' security behaviors and decision-making, so that we can make realistic and practical suggestions. In this paper, we present the measurements of security culture adopted in the study and discuss corresponding security issues that need to be addressed in OSS communities.},

Even though many approaches for detection and discovery of vulnerable packages exist, no prior work has focused on malicious packages. This paper presents a dataset as well as analysis of 174 malicious software packages that were used in real-world attacks on open source software supply chains and which were distributed via the popular package repositories npm, PyPI, and RubyGems. Those packages, dating from November 2015 to November 2019, were manually collected and analyzed.

To utilize OSS components effectively, it is necessary to figure out how the development processes and methods to be adapted. Most current studies are either theoretical proposals without empirical assessment or case studies in similar project contexts. It is therefore necessary to conduct more empirical studies on how process improvement and risk management can be performed and what are the results in various project contexts.},

abstract = {Open source software (OSS) communities are often able to produce high quality software comparable to proprietary software. The success of an open source software development (OSSD) community is often attributed to the underlying governance model, and a key component of these models is the decision-making (DM) process. While there have been studies on the decision-making processes publicized by OSS communities (e.g., through published process diagrams), little has been done to study decision-making processes that can be extracted using a bottom-up, data-driven approach, which can then be used to assess whether the publicized processes conform to the extracted processes. To bridge this gap, we undertook a large-scale data-driven study to understand how decisions are made in an OSSD community, using the case study of Python Enhancement Proposals (PEPs), which embody decisions made during the evolution of the Python language. Our main contributions are:(a) the design and development of a framework using information retrieval and natural language processing techniques to analyze the Python email archives (comprising 1.48 million emails), and(b) the extraction of decision-making processes that reveal activities that are neither explicitly mentioned in documentation published by the Python community nor identified in prior research work. Our results provide insights into the actual decision-making process employed by the Python community.},

abstract = {The number of Open Source Software research papers has grown significantly over the last few years. An important open question is related with the investigation of how undergraduate students perceive the relevance of open source software literature. To address this question, we conducted a survey at University of Bras\'{\i}lia (UnB) where 500 undergraduate students were invited to rate the relevance of research ideas contained in papers that were published over a period of ten years. This paper attempts to investigate whether the Open Source Software research produces results considered relevant to undergraduate students. This way we can provide feedback from the students, offering a way to produce useful and, consequently, more disseminated works among Open Source practitioners. To answer about the relevance of available work, we have tackled two questions: one about the scope of the studies and another about the quality perceived by them. For the first one, a systematic mapping was conducted, revealing a set of works composed by a great diversity of results. Than, we applied a Survey in which students could evaluate the relevance of these gathered works. The available open source software research works seem to be very diverse and were considered useful for students that contribute to the Open Source Projects. 77.01% of respondents answered that research conducted in the Open Source Community is relevant and important to the community, as well as to their professional and academic lives.},

abstract = {The automatic and real-time recognition of the user's emotional state is a feature that can provide benefits for different areas of Human-Computer Interaction. The scientific literature presents several techniques that can be used to recognize the user's emotional state. However, many techniques involve the use of sensors that can result in financial costs and cause discomfort to the user. In this scenario, the recognition of the emotional state through the analysis of facial expressions presents itself as a useful and practical approach, since it does not involve the use of sensors attached to the user's body and executed in different types of devices. Despite these advantages, software that allow the analysis of facial expressions for free are still incipient, and performance evaluation of this type of software usually is not available. In order to contribute to this context and assist researchers who need this type of software, this study presents a comparative analysis of two open-source emotion recognition software ("CLMTrackr" and "Face-api.js") simulating different environmental conditions related to lighting and distance. Considering images from two datasets, we generate 8675 videos simulating 25 different environmental conditions. Our results indicate that the environmental conditions did not cause major impacts on the accuracy of the software, and CLMTrackr and Face-api.js, presented, respectively, 28% and 64% of average accuracy.},

As a result, system and software engineers require efficient methods to track defect identification and removal efforts during the software development lifecycle. To support such activities, we have developed a free and open source version of the SoftWare Error Estimation Program (SWEEP), named SweET (Software Defect Estimation Tool), which has not been publicly available to the software engineering community for several years. SWEEP's four modes have been simplified and combined into three modes namely, (i) timebased, (ii) phase-based, and (iii) defect insertion in SweET. Moreover, SweET uses the Weibull model, which is more flexible than the Rayleigh model included in SWEEP. Furthermore, the model fitting performed with least squares estimation in SWEEP has been replaced with an expectation conditional maximization (ECM) algorithm, which is both stable and efficient.},

Development of qualified and secured software products relies mainly on the ability of OSS participants to acquire, refine and use new aspects of secure programming knowledge. Many OSS proponents believe that the open source innovation offers significant learning opportunities from its best practices. However, studies that specifically explore learning of software security in the context of open source development are scarce. This paper aims to empirically assess present knowledge sharing and learning about secure programming knowledge in the context of OSS communities utilized a socio-technical approach on OSS projects based on an ethnographic observation. Our motivation is not only to evaluate the knowledge sharing and learning mechanisms and the extent to which they may be viable and successful but also to gain insight into the security culture and project factors that affect learning processes of secure programming in OSS communities.},

abstract = {A common refrain from Senior Exit Surveys and Alumni Surveys is the desire to work on "real-world," "practical" and "hands-on" projects using industry-ready tools and development environments. To assuage this, institutions have moved towards adopting Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) as an avenue to provide meaningful, applied learning interventions to students. Through these experiences, students benefit from engagement with various communities including: the community of contributors to the FOSS project; the community of local software developers; the community of citizens who reside in the local area; the community of students at their institution and others; and, the community of people impacted by the FOSS project. These engagements motivate students, enhance their communication and technical skills, allow them to grow and become more confident, help them form professional networks, and provide the "real-world" projects they seek. In this panel, we will discuss our experiences in engaging students with five different types of communities as part of incorporating FOSS into our courses, focusing on how other educators can provide the same benefits to their students as well. In order to satisfy the time constraints of the panel, the last two authors will present together.},

abstract = {Advancing our understanding of software vulnerabilities, automating their identification, the analysis of their impact, and ultimately their mitigation is necessary to enable the development of software that is more secure.While operating a vulnerability assessment tool, which we developed, and that is currently used by hundreds of development units at SAP, we manually collected and curated a dataset of vulnerabilities of open-source software, and the commits fixing them. The data were obtained both from the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), and from project-specific web resources, which we monitor on a continuous basis.From that data, we extracted a dataset that maps 624 publicly disclosed vulnerabilities affecting 205 distinct open-source Java projects, used in SAP products or internal tools, onto the 1282 commits that fix them. Out of 624 vulnerabilities, 29 do not have a CVE (Common Vulnerability and Exposure) identifier at all, and 46, which do have such identifier assigned by a numbering authority, are not available in the NVD yet.The dataset is released under an open-source license, together with supporting scripts that allow researchers to automatically retrieve the actual content of the commits from the corresponding repositories, and to augment the attributes available for each instance. Moreover, these scripts allow to complement the dataset with additional instances that are not security fixes (which is useful, for example, in machine learning applications).Our dataset has been successfully used to train classifiers that could automatically identify security-relevant commits in code repositories. The release of this dataset and the supporting code as open-source will allow future research to be based on data of industrial relevance; it also represents a concrete step towards making the maintenance of this dataset a shared effort involving open-source communities, academia, and the industry.},

However, few systems that qualify as Government 3.0 have been described in detail so far. And there is a lack of research on how governments can put in place such systems. This study investigates and characterizes an innovative eGovernment project, based on Open Source Software (OSS), that could be considered as an example of a Government 3.0 project. Therefore, we report from a case study of X-Road, an originally Estonian eGovernment project for creating a data sharing infrastructure, which today is also used in other countries. We present the main characteristics of X-Road from the point of view of Government 3.0, how the X-Road project is organized, compare its organization to other OSS projects, identify who contributes to the project, and point out what challenges are perceived by their stakeholders. We conclude offering some reflections on how X-Road and other Government 3.0 projects can benefit from OSS.},

In this paper, we deliver an analysis of our approach to transferring an open source driving stack to a research vehicle. We put the hardware and software setup in context to other demonstrators and explain the criteria that led to our chosen hardware and software design. Specifically, we discuss the mapping of the Apollo driving stack to the system layout of our research vehicle, fortuna, including communication with the actuators by a controller running on a real-time hardware platform and the integration of the sensor setup. With our collection of the lessons learned, we encourage a faster setup of such systems by other research groups in the future.},

The analysis of open source community dynamics is a key capability in risk management practices focused on the integration of FLOSS in all types of organizations. We are conducting research in developing methodologies for managing risks of FLOSS adoption and deployment in various application domains. This paper is about the ability to systematically capture, filter, analyze, reason about, and build theories upon, the behavior of an open source community in combination with the structured elicitation of expert opinions on potential organizational business risk. The novel methodology presented here blends together qualitative and quantitative information as part of a wider analytics platform. The approach combines big data analytics with automatic scripting of scenarios that permits experts to assess risk indicators and business risks in focused tactical and strategic workshops. These workshops generate data that is used to construct Bayesian networks that map data from community risk drivers into statistical distributions that are feeding the platform risk management dashboard. A special feature of this model is that the dynamics of an open source community are tracked using social network metrics that capture the structure of unstructured chat data. The method is illustrated with a running example based on experience gained in implementing our approach in an academic smart environment setting including Mood bile, a Mobile Learning for Moodle (www.moodbile.org). This example is the first in a series of planned experiences in the domain of smart environments with the ultimate goal of deriving a complete risk model in that field.},

Open data standards are co-created in open communities for unifying the exchange of information. The SPDX® specification is such an open data standard to explicate and share OSS risk information. The development and subsequent adoption of SPDX raises the questions of how organizations make sense of SPDX when improving their own risk management routines, and of how a community benefits from the experiential knowledge that is contributed back by organizational adopters. To explore these questions, we conducted a single case, multi-component field study, connecting with members of organizations that employed SPDX.

abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has become a strategic asset for a number of reasons, such as its short time-to-market software service and product delivery, reduced development and maintenance costs, introduction of innovative features and its customization capabilities. By 2016 an estimated 95% of all commercial software packages will include OSS components. This pervasive adoption is not without risks for an industry that has experienced significant failures in product quality, timelines and delivery costs. Exhaustive testing of any software system and, specifically, of open source software components is usually not feasible due to limitations in time and resources. In risk-based testing approach test cases are selected and scheduled based on software risk analysis. This research introduces the strategy of risk-based adaptive testing of OSS by combining information on the OSS community ecosystem with risk-driven tests selection and scheduling strategy. A key feature of the proposed approach is the monitoring and analysis of OSS community dynamics, including chats and email communications, blogs, repositories of bugs and fixes, and more. The community and its dynamics are then monitored to detect anomaly communication between the community members. Our approach is demonstrated in the XWiki OSS, a Java-based environment that allows for the storing of structured data and the execution of server side scripts within the wiki interface. We illustrate our concepts, methods and approach behind risk based testing.},

abstract = {Continuous integration (CI) emphasizes quick feedback to developers. This is at odds with current practice of performance testing, which predominantely focuses on long-running tests against entire systems in production-like environments. Alternatively, software microbenchmarking attempts to establish a performance baseline for small code fragments in short time. This paper investigates the quality of microbenchmark suites with a focus on suitability to deliver quick performance feedback and CI integration. We study ten open-source libraries written in Java and Go with benchmark suite sizes ranging from 16 to 983 tests, and runtimes between 11 minutes and 8.75 hours. We show that our study subjects include benchmarks with result variability of 50% or higher, indicating that not all benchmarks are useful for reliable discovery of slowdowns. We further artificially inject actual slowdowns into public API methods of the study subjects and test whether test suites are able to discover them. We introduce a performance-test quality metric called the API benchmarking score (ABS). ABS represents a benchmark suite's ability to find slowdowns among a set of defined core API methods. Resulting benchmarking scores (i.e., fraction of discovered slowdowns) vary between 10% and 100% for the study subjects. This paper's methodology and results can be used to (1) assess the quality of existing microbenchmark suites, (2) select a set of tests to be run as part of CI, and (3) suggest or generate benchmarks for currently untested parts of an API.},

abstract = {This paper presents the problem of knowledge loss in Free/ Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects to be explored empirically. Knowledge loss occurs in FLOSS as contributors, mainly volunteers, leave FLOSS projects, and is a topic that has not been extensively explored. What type of knowledge is lost and how knowledge loss impacts the productivity of the FLOSS contributors that remain in a project is not known. Further, little is known about the barriers associated with the re-acquirement of lost knowledge types. There are many open questions, such as what are best practices and guidelines to retain knowledge lost by type while considering the relevant barriers. The main contribution of my research will be to provide an understanding of what type of knowledge is lost and its impact on the productivity of the contributor. Best practices and guidelines will also be contributed to retain knowledge lost by type and will be evaluated in FLOSS communities for their effectiveness.},

abstract = {Public organizations face difficulties in manipulating data essential for implementing efficient management, which compromises the quality of the services provided by these institutions. The use of Business Intelligence (BI) tools can contribute to the improvement of the organizational processes of these organizations. However, the high financial cost, in many cases, makes it impossible for public institutions to acquire proprietary BI solutions. An alternative is the use of solutions based on free and/or open source software. To identify, among the available OSS-based BI tools, which is the most appropriate for implementation in public bodies, it is necessary to apply some specific model for evaluation and selection. The literature describes several generic methods for assessing and comparing OSS. In this work, we select a suitable method and derive a model for the comparison and selection of OSS-based BI tools able to meet the demands of public organizations. In addition, through a case study, we demonstrate how this model can be used in the selection of a tool that can contribute to the improvement of information management in an organizational environment.},

abstract = {Although the use of open-source software (OSS) is a reality for information-technology companies, there has been little academic research on the factors impacting the process by which OSS is adopted, the way OSS is adopted, and the business models as employed. The TOE (Technology, Organization and Environment) framework has been used to study the influence of technological, organizational, and environmental factors considered by companies when adopting OSS. In this work, we collected data through online surveys answered by workers in IT companies in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The proposed model for determining the impact of each factor on the adoption of OSS and on the business model practiced by IT companies was evaluated by using structural equations. The results show that three groups of factors impact the way of OSS adoption. Organizational and technological factors are the most relevant, whereas for business models only environmental factors are relevant. The most relevant technological factor identified is "reduced hardware and software costs"; the most relevant organizational factor is "flexibility of IT structure"; and the most relevant environmental factor is "reports of successful use of OSS". We verified that IT companies in Minas Gerais use OSS in software development, either by incorporating OSS components into their software products or by employing OSS tools for software development.},

OSS communities are unclear about which techniques to use in each activity of the development process. The aim of our research is to adopt the visual brainstorming usability technique in the HistoryCal OSS project and determine the feasibility of adapting the technique for application. To do this, we participated as volunteers in the HistoryCal project. We used the case study research method to investigate technique application and community participation. We identified adverse conditions that were an obstacle to technique application and modified the technique to make it applicable. We can conclude from our experience that these changes were helpful for applying the technique, although it was not easy to recruit OSS users to participate in usability technique application.},

abstract = {In this tutorial, we explore open source software practices and tools that are suitable for a growing number of creators of interactive and playful systems. The introduction of open source tools such as Processing and Arduino has motivated a broader participation of technical and non-technical users in the creative production of interactive systems. Maker communities meet regularly and they share resources and knowledge for creative hacking, fun, and networking. In this context there are two main issues: on the one hand, software creation practices, based on collaboration and sharing, on the other hand, the respective end-user programming tools for artists, hobbyists or children. This tutorial presents a coherent overview of related work and our own experiences in the organization and running of maker workshops. It encompasses creative sessions whose final goal is to inspire the participants to experience open software practices and tools. This goal can divided into three sub-goals: 1) Technical (Interactivity, multimedia) 2) Artistic (poetic message, playful, experimental) 3) Open (sharing, reuse and participation). As a side effect of the study, the participants will cooperate and get to know each other and learn examples of new media prototyping tools and sharing platforms. The tutorial proposes a set of initial research questions which will challenge the participants to explore the relationship between Open Source Software and Entertainment.},

The organizers of this BoF are faculty members who have a spectrum of experience in supporting student involvement in HFOSS. The organizers will share tips for structuring such student participation as well as discuss challenges that they've experienced and approaches for overcoming those challenges. Attendees will be encouraged to ask questions about how to get started, selecting an appropriate HFOSS project, structuring assignments, and more.

The results suggest that that there is no-one-size-fit-all to open source software adoption benefits to the public sector in different regions. The results also show that technical benefits, vendor independence and customization are considered to be important for open source software adoption in public sector organizations. While this suggests that public sector organizations perceive open source software as one step towards vendor independence, customization is considered a very important benefit of open source software adoption in Asia than is the case in America.},

abstract = {Development, distribution and use of open source software comprise a market of data (source code, bug reports, documentation, number of downloads, etc.) from projects, developers and users. This large amount of data hampers people to make sense of implicit links between software projects, e.g., Dependencies, patterns, licenses. This context raises the question of what techniques and mechanisms can be used to help users and developers to link related pieces of information across software projects. In this paper, we propose a framework for a marketplace enhanced using linked open data (LOD) technology for linking software artifacts within projects as well as across software projects. The marketplace provides the infrastructure for collecting and aggregating software engineering data as well as developing services for mining, statistics, analytics and visualization of software data. Based on cross linking software artifacts and projects, the marketplace enables developers and users to understand the individual value of components and their relationship to bigger software systems. Improved understanding creates new business opportunities for software companies: users will be able to analyze and compare projects, developers can increase the visibility of their products, and hosts may offer plugins and services over the data to paying customers.},

In this regard, organizations can benefit from the advantages of this kind of software, such as less cost and more flexibility.

Reviewing numerous papers found in the literature, this study aims to collect a complete list of risks that may influence the open source migration process as much as possible. It also provides a new categorization of the risks by which each risk is classified based on its type (organizational, technical, and environmental), and its time of occurrence (before, during, and after migration). Moreover, this paper proposes a number of conceivable measures to mitigate each risk; some of them are proposed for the first time in this area of research. The results of this study can help organizations' decision makers to make better decisions in the open source migration process.},

abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) development is distributed across actors and artifacts and involves translating diffuse representations into distinct sets of contiguous code artifacts. Despite the highly distributed and dynamic nature of OSS development, it is often described in unitary, monolithic terms - an unfortunate situation which masks considerable variance across OSS development processes. Therefore we explore reasons for systematic variance in these processes so as to enable more effective OSS development practices. Drawing on theory of distributed cognition, we develop a language of cognitive translations, which occur within and across distributed social arrangements and structural conditions of sharing knowledge. This language provides micro-foundations for understanding how different modes of OSS development emerge. Through examining how generative characteristics of social and structural distributions in OSS shape distinct development pathways, we propose a theoretically derived typology explaining the characteristics, dynamics, and conditions for success of different modes of OSS development.},

abstract = {Nowadays, many software projects are partially or completely open-source based. There is an increasing need for companies to participate in open-source software (OSS) projects, e.g., in order to benefit from open source ecosystems. OSS projects introduce particular challenges that have to be understood in order to gain the benefits. One such challenge is getting newcomers onboard into the projects effectively. Similar challenges may be present in other self-organised, virtual team environments. In this paper we present preliminary observations and results of in-progress research that studies the process of on boarding into virtual OSS teams. The study is based on a program created and conceived at Stanford University in conjunction with Facebook's Education Modernization program. It involves the collaboration of more than a dozen international universities and nine open source projects. More than 120 students participated in 2013. The students have been introduced to and supported by mentors experienced in the participating OSS projects. Our findings indicate that mentoring is an important factor for effective on boarding in OSS projects, promoting cohesion within distributed teams and maintaining an appropriate pace.},

We analyzed the hierarchy of Eclipse, how merits are conceptualized within the ecosystem and the effect of the appointments of mentors and project leads on the amount of commits. From our research, we can conclude that this system is not always as fair as it seems; merits are only a benefit in some cases.},

abstract = {The growth in the number of non-developer open source software (OSS) application users and the escalating use of these applications have led to the need and interest in developing usable OSS. OSS communities do not generally know how to apply usability techniques and are unclear about which techniques to use in each activity of the development process. The aim of our research is to adopt the Personas usability technique in the PSeInt OSS project and determine the feasibility of adapting the technique for application. To do this, we participated as volunteers in the project. We used the case study research method during technique application and participation in the community. As a result, we identified adverse conditions that were an obstacle to technique application and modified the technique to make it applicable. We can conclude from our experience that these changes were helpful for applying the technique, although it was not easy to recruit OSS users to participate in usability technique application.},

abstract = {In aerospace engineering, as well as in many other disciplines, many software tools are developed. Often, it is hard to get an overview of already existing software. Sometimes this leads to multiple development of software, if nobody is able to determine whether a software for a specific tasks exist already or not. Therefore, in companies and organizations there is a need for a directory of exiting software. The German Aerospace Center has built such a directory based on the Open Source software Allura, which is the base software that drives the Open Source hosting platform SourceForge.net. Allura has been customized to the needs of the aerospace domain. The result is a software portal for the aerospace research community, that allow to register and categorize software. It is intendend to be used both for Open Source and proprietary software. Employees of the German Aerospace Center as well as the public can search for existing software. This reduces the amount of software developed twice and allows to get in touch with colleagues who developed similar software.},

Test results are automatically published to a format capable of being consumed by script catalogues and social coding sites. This would serve as an independent signal of script trustworthiness and quality to script consumers and would allow developers to be made quickly aware of quality issues. As a result, potential consumers of scripts can be assured that a script is likely to work when applied to their particular environment.

We conducted a pilot diary study to explore motivations, barriers, and the contribution processes of first-time contributors in a real time, qualitative manner. In addition, we measured their self-efficacy before and after their participation. We found that what drove participants were intrinsic motivations, altruism, and internal values, which differed from previous work with older adults and with the general FOSS population. We also found that self-efficacy did not change significantly, even when participants encountered significant barriers or setbacks. The top 3 barriers were lack of communication, installation issues, and documentation issues. We found that asking for and receiving help, and avoiding difficult development environments were more likely to lead to success. To verify these results, we encourage a future large-scale diary study that involves multiple demographics. Given our pilot study, we recommend that future outreach efforts involving older adults focus on how to effectively communicate and build community amongst older contributors.},

abstract = {Community-based Open Source Software (OSS) projects are usually self-organized and dynamic, receiving contributions from distributed volunteers. These communities' survival, long-term success, and continuity demand a constant influx of newcomers. However, newcomers face many barriers when making their first contribution to an OSS project, leading in many cases to dropouts. Therefore, a major challenge for OSS projects is to provide ways to support newcomers during their first contribution. In this paper, our goal was to evaluate how the newcomers' perceived efficacy is influenced by the use of an environment that organizes the project information for developers who want to place their first contribution to an OSS project. To accomplish this goal, we created FLOSS coach, a portal aiming to support newcomers to OSS projects, which was implemented based on a model of barriers proposed in previous research. Then, we conducted a study, in which 46 students, split in case and control group, were asked to contribute to an OSS project. We assessed the newcomers' self-efficacy by conducting a questionnaire before and after the assignment. We found that presenting the information according to the model of barriers had a positive influence on newcomers' self-efficacy, empowered the newcomers, making them more confident and comfortable during the contribution process. However, there is also some indication that FLOSS coach did not lower the technical barriers.},

Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) emerged as an alternative to Proprietary Software and has since its introduction made inroads onto desktops and servers alike. With FOSS emerged the freedom to run the programs for any purpose, freedom to study and modify the software, freedom to copy the software and share with neighbors and freedom to improve the program and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits. This paper makes a case for these freedoms. The paper first compares PS and FOSS use in Ghana and proposes a way for government to adopt FOSS.

Investigating the types of norms that exist in open source projects and their efficacy i.e. the usage of norms in enabling smoother functioning however has not received much attention from the normative multi-agent systems NorMAS community. This paper makes two contributions in this regard. First, it presents norm compliance results from a case study involving three open source Java projects. Second, it presents an architecture for mining norms from open source projects. It also discusses the opportunities presented by the domain of software repositories for the study of norms. In particular, it points towards how norms can be mined by leveraging and extending prior work in the areas of Normative Multi-Agent Systems NorMAS and mining software repositories.},

These challenges of understanding and evolving existing code can be illustrated in academic settings by leveraging the rich and varied volume of Open Source Software (OSS) code. To teach SE with OSS, however, it is necessary to select uniform projects of appropriate size and complexity. This paper reports on our search for suitable OSS projects to teach an introductory SE course with a focus on maintenance and evolution. The search turned out to be quite labor intensive and cumbersome, contrary to our expectations that it would be quick and simple. The chosen projects successfully demonstrated the maintenance challenges, highlighting the promise of using OSS. The burden of selecting projects, however, may impede widespread integration of OSS into SE and other computing courses.},

abstract = {From its very inception, the study of software architecture has recognized architectural decay as a regularly occurring phenomenon in long-lived systems. Architectural decay is caused by repeated changes to a system during its lifespan. Despite decay's prevalence, there is a relative dearth of empirical data regarding the nature of architectural changes that may lead to decay, and of developers' understanding of those changes. In this paper, we take a step toward addressing that scarcity by conducting an empirical study of changes found in software architectures spanning several hundred versions of 14 open-source systems. Our study reveals several new findings regarding the frequency of architectural changes in software systems, the common points of departure in a system's architecture during maintenance and evolution, the difference between system-level and component-level architectural change, and the suitability of a system's implementation-level structure as a proxy for its architecture.},

abstract = {There exists two types of developers in Open Source Software (OSS) projects: 1) Committers who have permission to commit edited source code to the Version Control System (VCS), 2) Developers who contribute source code but cannot commit to the VCS directly. In order to develop and evolve high quality OSS, projects are always in search of new committers. OSS projects often promote strong developers to become committers. When existing committers find strong developers, they propose their promotion to a committer role. Delaying the committer-promotion might lead to strong developers departing from an OSS project and the project losing them. However early committer-promotion comes with its own slew of risks as well (e.g., the promotion of inexperienced developers). Hence, committer-promotion decisions are critical for the quality and successful evolution of OSS projects. In this paper, we examine the committer-promotion phenomena for two OSS projects (Eclipse and Firefox). We find that the amount of activities by future committers was higher than the amount of activities by developers who did not become committers). We also find that some developers are promoted to a committer role very rapidly (within a few month) while some of developers take over one year to become a committer. Finally, we develop a committer-identification model to assist OSS projects identifying future committers.},

It is unclear whether these motivations have any actual impact on OSS project success. <u>Goal:</u> To identify how an OSS developer's reputation affects the outcome of his/her code review requests. <u>Method:</u> We conducted a social network analysis (SNA) of the code review data from eight popular OSS projects. Working on the assumption that core developers have better reputation than peripheral developers, we developed an approach, Core Identification using K-means (CIK) to divide the OSS developers into core and periphery groups based on six SNA centrality measures. We then compared the outcome of the code review process for members of the two groups. <u>Results:</u> The results suggest that the core developers receive quicker first feedback on their review request, complete the review process in shorter time, and are more likely to have their code changes accepted into the project codebase. Peripheral developers may have to wait 2 - 19 times (or 12 - 96 hours) longer than core developers for the review process of their code to complete. <u>Conclusion:</u> We recommend that projects allocate resources or create tool support to triage the code review requests to motivate prospective developers through quick feedback.},

Most of the existing software applications are nowadays distributed as Package-based Free and Open Source (PFOS) applications. Different requirements must be considered while configuring PFOS software. These requirements can be classified into two classes: dependency and capacity requirements.In this paper, we proposed a novel approach to ensure the correctness of elastic composite PFOS applications. Our approach is based on Event-B and combines proof-based models with model checking to provide a more complete verification. It starts by abstractly specifying the main concepts of PFOS software, and then refining them through multiple steps to model the elastic composite PFOS software and its correctness requirements. The consistency of each model and the relationship between an abstract model and its refinements are obtained by formal proofs. Finally, we used the ProB model-checker to trace possible design errors.},

USRP devices are often used with GNU Radio, a free and open-source DSP framework that allows designers to prototype with a combination of C++, Python, and graphical tools. This paper will investigate various methods that can be used to build complete communications stacks within GNU Radio. These methods will leverage advanced features of UHDTM (USRP Hardware Driver) and GNU radio to implement TDMA, CSMA and FHSS transceivers that can be modified in GNU Radio Companion - a graphical development environment. The implementation will also show how to interact with upper network and application layers, all within GNU Radio. The implementation presented in this paper will be open-source. It can serve as an educational resource, or as a basis for additional research.},

abstract = {Conflict is an important group process, and more so in self-organizing teams with fluid boundaries and high possibility for turnover. We empirically investigate different types of conflict in Free and Open Source Software development teams, their antecedents and impact on developers&' sustained participation. Following a survey of 222 FOSS developers, we find conflict to have an overall negative effect on developer retention. Furthermore, different types of conflict have varying impact on outcomes. In particular, only normative conflict levels negatively impact intention to remain in a FOSS project. Both normative and process conflict negatively affect perceptions of team performance, while the co-occurrence of task and process conflict exacerbate negative effects on outcomes. Though we find structural factors like task interdependence and geographical distribution increase overall conflict levels in FOSS teams, participatory decision-making and a transformational leadership style have an ameliorating effect. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.},

abstract = {While in early years, software technology companies such as IBM and Novell invested time and resources in open source software (OSS) development, today even user firms (e.g., Samsung) invest in OSS development. Thus, today’s professional OSS projects receive contributions from hobbyists, universities, research centers, as well as software vendors and user firms. Theorists have referred to this kind of combined public and private investments in innovation creation as private-collective innovation. In particular, the private-collective innovation model seeks to explain why firms privately invest resources to create artifacts that share the characteristics of non-rivalry and non-excludability. The aim of this research is to investigate how different contributor groups associated with public and increasing private interests interact in an OSS development project. The results of the study show that the balance between private and collective contributors in the Linux kernel development seems to be changing to an open source project that is mostly developed jointly by private companies.},

abstract = {Software quality is one of the main goals of effective programming. Although it has a quite ambiguous meaning, quality can be measured by several metrics, which have been appropriately formulated through the years. Software measurement is a particularly important procedure, as it provides meaningful information about the software artifact. This procedure is even more emerging when we refer to open source software, where the need for shared knowledge is crucial for the maintenance and evolution of the code. A paradigm of open source project where code quality is especially important is the scientific language R. This paper aims to perform measurements on the R statistical open source software, examine the relationships among the observed metrics and special attributes of the R software and search for certain characteristics that define its behavior and structure. For this purpose, a random sample of 508 R packages has been downloaded from the CRAN repository of R and has been measured, using the SourceMonitor metrics tool. The resulted measurements, along with a significant number of specific attributes of the R packages, were examined and analyzed, leading to interesting conclusions such as the validity of a power law distribution regarding the majority of the sample's metrics and the absence of specific patterns due to the interdependencies among packages. Finally, the effects of the number of developers and the number of dependencies are investigated, in order to understand their impact on the metrics of the sample packages.},

We have collected five years data from the developers mail list communication and task manager (Jira) discussions of Hadoop Common project. We observed the users' communication, identifying newcomers and classifying questions and answers content. For the study conducted, less than 20% of newcomers became long term contributors. There are evidences that the withdrawal is influenced by the respondents and by the type of response received. However, the lack of answer was not evidenced as a factor that influences newcomers withdrawal in the project.},

Numeouus SRGMs have been proposed to estimate the reliability of the software of OSSs; however, no one has proven to perform very well considering diverse project characteristics. In the models for OSSs, the error deletion experience for the reused and the newly developed components based on component-specific testing-effort is demonstrated. It is considered that there are several different types of faults for newly developed component and single type of faults for reused components for obtaining the unambiguous expressions for the mean number of individual types of errors. For OSSs system components testing-efforts have to be modeled separately for each and every component in the system. The total effort of the system is then calculated from the summation of component-specific testing-effort functions. We have employed MATLAB as implementation framework for performing all the estimations. Our approach partitions the testing effort with growth curves of varying nature among different components of the same OSS. To validate our analytical results, numerical illustrations have also been provided.},

abstract = {Comprehension of Open Source Software (OSS) projects is traditionally driven by the plethora of data produced and maintained by these projects. The data, in one hand, encapsulates the tacit knowledge on the evolution of the software itself. And, on the other hand, provides the history of communication and collaboration of the community. Acquisition and analysis of such data has been mostly manual or semi-automated and error-prone, mainly due to unstructured and substandard data representation. This increases the validity threat of the reported results and makes it incomparable across the studies. With the advancement of data management tools and technologies, many third party data providers are putting serious effort to provide OSS project's data in a standard and platform independent format. In this paper, we propose a framework to fully automate the analysis and visualization of OSS evolution data through the use of existing data services. As a proof of concept we implemented a tool named POMAZ. We demonstrate the applicability of the tool in the context of two related open source projects FFmpeg and GStreamer.},

Static analysis methods are applied to each system to determine the number of for-loops and free-loops (i.e., loops that can be parallized). For each non-free loop the various inhibitors (to parallelization) are determined and counted. The results show that function calls within for-loops represent the vast majority of inhibitors and thus pose the greatest roadblock to adapt and re-engineer systems to better utilize parallelization. This is somewhat contradictory to the literature, which is focused primarily on the removal of data dependencies within loops. Additionally, the historical data of inhibitor counts for the set of systems is presented over a ten-year period. The data shows few of the systems examined are increasing the potential to parallelizable loops over time.},

Therefore, in this paper we study the usage of Twitter by software developers through harvesting their project-related activities on Twitter. In particular, we present the most frequently used hashtags by software developers and further investigate if project-related hashtags are the most frequent and commonly used hashtags by software developers.

abstract = {The majority of computer users download compiled software and run it directly on their machine. Apparently, this is also true for open-sourced software -- most users would not compile the available source, and implicitly trust that the available binaries have been compiled from the published source code (i.e., no backdoor has been inserted in the binary). To verify that the official binaries indeed correspond to the released source, one can compile the source of a given application, and then compare the locally generated binaries with the developer-provided official ones. However, such simple verification is non-trivial to achieve in practice, as modern compilers, and more generally, toolchains used in software packaging, have not been designed with verifiability in mind. Rather, the output of compilers is often dependent on parameters that can be strongly tied to the building environment. In this paper, we analyze a widely-used encryption tool, TrueCrypt, to verify its official binary with the corresponding source. We first manually replicate a close match to the official binaries of sixteen most recent versions of TrueCrypt for Windows up to v7.1a, and then explain the remaining differences that can solely be attributed to non-determinism in the build process. Our analysis provides the missing guarantee on official binaries that they are indeed backdoor-free, and makes audits on TrueCrypt's source code more meaningful. Also, we uncover several sources of non-determinism in TrueCrypt's compilation process; these findings may help create future verifiable build processes.},

abstract = {The community-based open source software (OSS) development model has emerged as a viable alternative to firm-based traditional software development. The naturally evolving structure of collaborative relationships among software developers is a major distinction between the OSS development model and the traditional development model. Conventional statistical methods that focus on individual cases and their attributes cannot properly inform the management of the naturally evolving collaborative relationships in open source project. We emphasize social network analysis as a method especially suitable for management of open source development projects, because it focuses on relations among individuals rather than attributes of individual cases. We show how open source development can be represented as a collaboration network graph and how the network can be characterized by various network structure metrics. We present four metrics as a starting point--size, centralization, density and clusterness, that are most useful in revealing collaborative relationships in OSS development process. We discuss how to generate collaboration network for OSS projects and how to calculate the metrics. We further describe how these metrics can assist in effective management of open source software development process. We conclude by presenting preliminary empirical evidence in support of the metrics.},

Past work has focused on characterizing the main differences between OSS and traditional forms of software RE. In this effort we focus on differences in RE activity in OSS. RE is characterized as a socio-technical distributed cognitive (DCog) activity where multiple actors deploy artifacts to 'compute' requirements. To uncover how OSS projects configure the socio-technical distribution of cognitive processes to respond to varying attributes of incoming requirements we conduct a comparative analysis of four successful OSS projects. We observe that the volume of requirements faced by an OSS group dictates largely the nature of its social formation while the volatility experienced in the requirements dictates the overlap the project exhibits with the larger external community. Finally the velocity of change in technological requirements influence the project's documentation practices of requirements with the level of design consistency desired in the end product influencing the decision-making channels used in the development endeavor.},

Current major open source software environments, including IDE tools and online code repositories, do not provide support for visual architecture modeling. Research has shown that visual modeling of complex software projects has benefits throughout the software lifecycle. Then why is it that software architecture modeling is so conspicuously missing from popular online open source code repositories? How can including visual documentation improve the overall quality of open source software projects? Our goal is to answer both of these questions and bridge the gap between traditional software engineering best practices and open source development by applying a software architecture documentation methodology using Unified Modeling Language, called 5W1H Re-Doc, on a real open source project for managing identity and access, MITREid Connect. We analyze the effect of a model-driven software engineering approach on collaboration of open source contributors, quality of specification conformance, and state-of-the-art of architecture modeling. Our informal experiment revealed that in some cases, having the visual documentation can significantly increase comprehension of an online OSS project over having only the textual information that currently exists for that project.},

abstract = {In the mid 90s, a new style of software development, termed open source software (OSS) has emerged and has originated large, mature, stable, and widely used software projects. As software continues to grow in size and complexity, so do development teams. Consequently, coordination and communication within these teams play larger roles in productivity and software quality. My dissertation focuses on the relationships between developers in large open source projects and how software affects and is affected by these relationships. Fortunately, source code repository histories, mailing list archives, and bug databases from OSS projects contain latent data from which we can reconstruct a rich view of a project over time and analyze these sociotechnical relationships. We present methods of obtaining and analyzing this data as well as the results of empirical studies whose goal is to answer questions that can help stakeholders understand and make decisions about their own teams. We answer questions such as "Do large OSS project really have a disorganized bazaar-like structure__ __" "What is the relationship between social and development behavior in OSS__ __" "How does one progress from a project newcomer to a full-fledged, core developer__ __" and others in an attempt to understand how large, successful OSS projects work and also to contrast them with projects in commercial settings.},

To systematize the OSS test process, an Open Source Software Test Process Framework (OSS-TPF) is proposed. The alignment of OSS-TPF with the ISO/IEC Test Process Standard is illustrated.},

abstract = {Continuous Integration (CI) has become a common practice in both industrial and open-source software development. While CI has evidently improved aspects of the software development process, errors during CI builds pose a threat to development efficiency. As an increasing amount of time goes into fixing such errors, failing builds can significantly impair the development process and become very costly. We perform an in-depth analysis of build failures in CI environments. Our approach links repository commits to data of corresponding CI builds. Using data from 14 open-source Java projects, we first identify 14 common error categories. Besides test failures, which are by far the most common error category (up to >80% per project), we also identify noisy build data, e.g., induced by transient Git interaction errors, or general infrastructure flakiness. Second, we analyze which factors impact the build results, taking into account general process and specific CI metrics. Our results indicate that process metrics have a significant impact on the build outcome in 8 of the 14 projects on average, but the strongest influencing factor across all projects is overall stability in the recent build history. For 10 projects, more than 50% (up to 80%) of all failed builds follow a previous build failure. Moreover, the fail ratio of the last k=10 builds has a significant impact on build results for all projects in our dataset.},

In this paper, we examined the contribution characteristics of developers in open source environment based on visual analysis, and presented approaches from three aspects-influencing factors, time characteristics and region characteristics. Our analysis used data from github and revealed some regular patterns. We found that the code which newcomers started to contribute with more people engaged in would lead to less contribution in some degree. We also found that there's a relation between developers' early and later period contribution. In addition, developers from different regions were more likely to have dominant relationship. Our findings may provide some support for future research in the area of software evolution.},

abstract = {Software Engineering (SE) projects that emphasize maintenance and evolution can emulate industrial challenges and prepare students for careers in the software industry. Designing maintenance-centric SE projects, however, is difficult because software code upon which these projects must be based is not readily available. Open Source Software (OSS) can alleviate this issue by offering a rich and varied volume of code. This rich diversity of OSS projects, however, presents the greatest hurdle in seamlessly selecting suitable projects for integration. To better understand the scope of this diversity, initially, we propose to manually select uniformly difficult projects of appropriate complexity. Ultimately, based on the experiences and insights acquired through the manual selection, we envision the development of a systematic methodology based on software metrics to ease the project selection process. Such a systematic methodology will pave the way for the adoption of the OSS-based approach at peer institutions, bringing us a step closer to injecting realism into SE projects.},

In this context, this research aims to answer the following questions: Do sponsors influence the organizational structures of free software communities by promoting differences between sponsored and non-sponsored communities? What strategies are adopted by the sponsor to influence the organizational structure of free software communities? Two constructs are central to the study: organizational structure and sponsorship. For this research, we adopted case study methodology and three free software communities were studied. In the analysis of the results it was evidenced that sponsors influence decision making, definition of community key roles, and a formalization of norms. In turn, non-sponsored communities were characterized by the centralization and informality of the norms. We conclude that differences were identified in the organizational structure of sponsored and non-sponsored free software communities, and this differentiation was influenced by sponsors. In addition, it was possible to describe strategies and mechanisms used by sponsors to influence the community organizational structure.},

In that sense, we used the concept mutualism from social parasites. Preliminary results based on experiments on the Github collaborative platform showed that Open Source phenomena can be modeled as a mutualistic system, in terms of the evolution of the population of developers and repositories.},

The results of this study suggest that it is beneficial to introduce usability activities into OSS development through the participative approach.

This participative approach had a clear impact in the case project as seen in changes in the user interface and in improved usability. The challenge of adapting usability and OSS development philosophies and practices should, however, be researched further.},

We first analyze the general structure of the social networks, e.g., graph distances and the degree distribution of the social networks. Our analysis confirms that the social networks of OSS communities follow power-law degree distributions and exhibit small-world characteristics. However, the degree mixing pattern shows that high degree nodes tend to connect more with low degree nodes, suggesting collaborations between experts and newbie developers. Second, we study the correlation between graph degrees and the productivity of the contributors in terms of the amount of contribution and commitment to OSS projects. The analysis demonstrates evident influence of the social ties on the developers' overall productivity.},

Previous studies investigated aspects of the joining process and motivation in open collaboration communities, but few have focused on identifying and understanding the critical barriers newcomers face when placing their first contribution, a period that frequently leads to dropout. This is important for Open Source Software (OSS) projects, which receive contributions from many one-time contributors. Focusing on OSS, our study qualitatively analyzed social barriers that hindered newcomers' first contributions. We defined a conceptual model composed of 58 barriers including 13 social barriers. The barriers were identified from a qualitative data analysis considering different sources: a systematic literature review; open question responses gathered from OSS projects' contributors; students contributing to OSS projects; and semi-structured interviews with 36 developers from 14 different projects. This paper focuses on social barriers and its contributions include gathering empirical evidence of the barriers faced by newcomers, organizing and better understanding these barriers, surveying the literature from the perspective of the barriers, and identifying new potential research streams.},

Many projects leverage the contribution of outsiders, and the sustainability of the project relies on retaining some of these new-comers. This research aims to identify the barriers that hinder newcomers' onboarding to OSS projects. Our method consisted of a qualitative study conducted with data obtained from four different sources: (i) systematic literature review, (ii) feedback from nine graduate and undergraduate students after they tried to join OSS projects, (iii) 24 responses to a questionnaire sent to 9 OSS projects, and (iv) semi-structured interviews with 36 sub-jects from 14 different projects, including newcomers and experi-enced members. The method to select the candidate papers in the systematic literature review was querying four digital libraries and backward snowballing. The data obtained from the practi-tioners from all three sources, and the primary studies obtained in the systematic review were analyzed using used procedures of Grounded Theory's open and axial coding. The analysis resulted in a conceptual model composed of 58 barriers, grouped into six different categories: cultural differences, newcomers' characteris-tics, reception issues, orientation, technical hurdles, and docu-mentation problems. We could observe recurrent barriers evi-denced in different data sources. We could notice that the onboarding process of a newcomer to an OSS can be a tough task. This research brings empirical support relying on data from different sources, organizes and discusses the existing common wisdom about barriers faced by newcomers to OSS projects, which deserve attention from researchers and OSS communities.},

It focuses on exploring how FOSS is developed and evolved based on an extensive review of a set of empirical studies of FOSSD projects that articulate different levels of analysis. These characterize what has been analyzed in FOSSD studies across levels that examine (i) why individuals participate; (ii) resources and capabilities supporting development activities; (iii) how cooperation, coordination, and control are realized in projects; (iv) alliance formation and inter-project social networking; (v) FOSS as a multi-project software ecosystem, and (vi) FOSS as a social movement. Next, there is a discussion of limitations and constraints in the FOSSD studies so far. Last, attention shifts to identifying emerging opportunities for future FOSSD studies that can give rise to the development of new software engineering tools or techniques, as well as to new empirical studies of software development.},

abstract = {The amount of open-source-software (OSS) used in the global software engineering community is already enormous and still growing. This includes both the products we develop and the development tools we use to create them. It is meanwhile rare to find examples of products that do not contain open source components. Although, using open source components in products does have many advantages, it is very important that one also manages the use of the open source components in a license-compliant way.A set of companies and other organizations who either offer or use OSS-based license compliance tools have recently formed the "Open Source Tooling Group". This international group works on establishing an ecosystem of OSS-based tools for license compliance that fit together well and can offer an ecosystem of tools for organizations to help fulfill their license compliance obligations.This talk provides the motivation and overview of this topic describing the relevance to software engineering practitioners. It will close by highlighting some of the research areas where further improvements could be done in this fast-growing field.},

abstract = {Free/Open source software (FOSS) is an important part of the IT ecosystem. Due to the voluntary nature of participation, continual recruitment is key to the growth and sustainability of these communities. It is therefore important to understand how and why potential contributors fail in the process of transitioning from user to contributor. Most newcomers, or "newbies", have their first interaction with a community through a mailing list. To understand how this first contact influences future interactions, we studied eight mailing lists across four FOSS projects: MediaWiki, GIMP, PostgreSQL, and Subversion. We analyzed discussions initiated by newbies to determine the effect of gender, nationality, politeness, helpfulness and timeliness of response. We found that nearly 80% of newbie posts received replies, and that receiving timely responses, especially within 48 hours, was positively correlated with future participation. We also found that while the majority of interactions were positive, 1.5% of responses were rude or hostile.},

abstract = {Microblogging as an emerging social media technology is becoming increasingly popular in more and more OSS communities and forms various follower networks. However, the impacts of microblogging follower network on OSS project success are rarely studied. In this study, we adopt a social network perspective to identify and hypothesize that three microblogging network mechanisms will positively affect OSS project success through knowledge sharing, and attracting more skillful and eminent developers. Using longitudinal data from a large online OSS community called Ohloh, we empirically examine the impacts of various factors for these two type of mechanisms on the commercial and technological successes of OSS projects. We found that preferential attachment and structure hole factors are supported, while accumulative advantage factors are partially supported. Our findings may provide insights for OSS stakeholders to effectively manage microblogging techniques for achieving project success.},

abstract = {As reported by Kevin Crowston and co-authors in a recent paper, free open source software is a very important social phenomenon that involves nearly one million programmers, a myriad of software development firms, millions of users, and its financial impact is huge since for instance the cost of recreating available free software is estimated in tens of billions of euros. Free open source software projects generally have one mailing list for developers and another one for users. This large number of mailing lists changes constantly and shows a great variety with respect to membership and topics covered. This makes them very difficult to monitor. One way of overcoming this Big Data Challenge is to identify some easily computable global indicators that can be used for instance to detect important events. We illustrate this approach here by making a social network analysis and comparison of developers' and users' mailing lists of four free open source software projects: CentOS, GnuPG, Mailman and Samba. We show that these mailing lists have some common characteristics: the number of messages, the time durations and the interlink times can be fitted using power and lognormal laws with suitable scales and parameters, for the interlink time, the analysis is done using the temporal delta density inspired by the delta density introduced by Viard and Latapy. This similarity between the characteristics of mailing lists also applies to the structure of dominant groups. For the time evolution of the number of messages, GnuPG exhibits a particular behavior. The interpretation of the different parameters gives very interesting insights into the membership and the type of topics covered by the mailing lists. The analysis carried out here and similar studies cited in this paper can therefore be considered as a first step towards the designing of building blocks for monitoring mailing lists.},

The culture and norms of FLOSS appear to be formulated by what is privileged/marginalized by men in the context of FLOSS, and such men\^{a}s valuing is likely to threaten women FLOSS participants\^{a} face. Our findings are 1) in the FLOSS context, there are gender-based differences in determining what threatens face on the basis of gendered expectations of what is polite, and 2) women-dominated FLOSS participants are \^{a}practically\^{a} polite in software development practices. These findings were explored through an in-depth analysis of interaction episodes on the email list, archival public interview data of women FLOSS developers, FLOSS development environment, and instructive materials shared in public. Our paper shows how politeness theory can be extended to the \^{a}practice\^{a} of coding and non-coding work, and provides FLOSS communities with guidelines for involving and sustaining women participants in FLOSS development.},

Using cross-sectional and longitudinal data on a sample of 108 open source projects, this research investigated how the complexity of open source project releases varied throughout the life of the project. Functional data analysis was applied to the release histories of the projects and recurring evolutionary patterns were derived. There were projects that saw little evolution, according to their measures of size and structural complexity. However, projects that displayed some evolution often differed on the pattern of evolution depending on whether size or structural complexity was examined. Factors that contribute to and result from the patterns of complexity were evaluated, and implications for research and practice are presented.},

The field of Software Engineering studies processes, mechanisms, tools, and frameworks for the development of software artifacts. Historically, however, most of Software Engineering research and education does not benefit from the large and rich source of data and experimental testbeds offered by FLOSS projects and their hundreds of millions of lines of working code. In this paper, we discuss how Software Engineering research and education can greatly benefit from the wealth of information available in the FLOSS ecosystem. We then evaluate how FLOSS has been used, up to now, by papers published in the Brazilian Symposium on Software Engineering. Finally, we present an agenda for the future, proposing concrete ways to exploit the synergies between research and education in Software Engineering and FLOSS projects.},

A major feature of this kind of software is its development in public, where the collective intelligence (CI) is applied and the knowledge is shared. The communication is a fundamental activity to these settings of development. To support the communication process, knowledge management (KM) stimulates the communication and the information sharing among people. This way, a good communication among users that are stimulated and coordinated addresses the final quality of the open source project. This work surveys how KM stimulates quality assurance in developing open source settings. It focuses on users, on the communication among them, and on the documentation they can help to write.},

abstract = {The voluntary and computer mediated nature of FOSS work presents unique challenges and opportunities for effective collaboration. Conflict is one such challenge, magnified by the distributed nature of work and limited communication channels. Though conflict is recognized as an important social process in FOSS development teams, few studies have adequately addressed this issue. Drawing on theoretical frameworks in organizational behavior and social psychology, her dissertation investigates how conflict arises in voluntary distributed virtual teams such as FOSS, and its impact on group function. The work first explores the emergence and experience of conflict during the life cycle of a project. Different types and sources of conflict are identified, as well as their relationship with group outcomes. Various conflict types are expected to affect group function differently: some conflict sources may present a challenge, while others may prove necessary for successful group function. The dissertation expands theory and research on distributed work, in examining on-going processes of conflict in voluntary teams. This work also informs community design, as understanding conflict antecedents in voluntary virtual teams aids in reducing unproductive conflict and facilitates conflict that spurs innovation.},

Our results indicate that FOSS project members possess rather sophisticated notions of software usability, which collectively mirror definitions commonly found in HCI textbooks. Our study also uncovered a wide range of practices that ultimately work to improve software usability. Importantly, these activities are typically based on close, direct interpersonal relationships between developers and their core users, a group of users who closely follow the project and provide high quality, respected feedback. These relationships, along with positive feedback from other users, generate social rewards that serve as the primary motivations for attending to usability issues on a day-to-day basis. These findings suggest a need to reconceptualize HCI methods to better fit this culture of practice and its corresponding value system.},

More recently, software evolution researchers have investigated logical dependencies between artifacts to assess failure-proneness, detect design issues, infer code decay, and predict likely changes. However, the interplay between these two kinds of dependencies is still obscure. By mining 150 thousand commits from the Apache Software Foundation repository and employing object-oriented metrics reference values, we concluded that 91% of all established logical dependencies involve non-structurally related artifacts. Furthermore, we found some evidence that structural dependencies do not lead to logical dependencies in most situations. These results suggest that dependency management methods and tools should rely on both kinds of dependencies, since they represent different dimensions of software evolvability.},

However, many other popular languages such as XSL or XML have received minor attention. In this paper, we discuss some trends in OSS development that we observed when considering multiple programming language evolution of OSS. Based on the revision data of 22 OSS projects, we tracked the evolution of language usage and other artefacts such as documentation files, binaries and graphics files. In these systems several different languages and artefact types including C/C++, Java, XML, XSL, Makefile, Groovy, HTML, Shell scripts, CSS, Graphics files, JavaScript, JSP, Ruby, Phyton, XQuery, OpenDocument files, PHP, etc. have been used. We found that the amount of code written in different languages differs substantially. Some of our findings can be summarized as follows: (1) JavaScript and CSS files most often co-evolve with XSL; (2) Most Java developers but only every second C/C++ developer work with XML; (3) and more generally, we observed a significant increase of usage of XML and XSL during recent years and found that Java or C are hardly ever the only language used by a developer. In fact, a developer works with more than 5 different artefact types (or 4 different languages) in a project on average.},

abstract = {We apply visualization techniques to user profiles and repository metadata from the GitHub source code hosting service. Our motivation is to identify patterns within this development community that might otherwise remain obscured. Such patterns include the effect of geographic distance on developer relationships, social connectivity and influence among cities, and variation in projectspecific contribution styles (e.g., centralized vs. distributed). Our analysis examines directed graphs in which nodes represent users' geographic locations and edges represent (a) follower relationships, (b) successive commits, or (c) contributions to the same project. We inspect this data using a set of visualization techniques: geo-scatter maps, small multiple displays, and matrix diagrams. Using these representations, and tools based on them, we develop hypotheses about the larger GitHub community that would be difficult to discern using traditional lists, tables, or descriptive statistics. These methods are not intended to provide conclusive answers; instead, they provide a way for researchers to explore the question space and communicate initial insights.},

abstract = {Open Source software is competing successfully in many areas. The commercial sector is recognizing the benefits offered by Open Source development methods that lead to high quality software. Can these benefits be realized in specialized domains where expertise is rare? This study examined discussion forums of an Open Source project in a particular specialized application domain--electronic medical records--to see how development roles are carried out, and by whom. We found through a qualitative analysis that the core developers in this system include doctors and clinicians who also use the product. We also found that the size of the community associated with the project is an order of magnitude smaller than predicted, yet still maintains a high degree of responsiveness to issues raised by users. The implication is that a few experts and a small core of dedicated programmers can achieve success using an Open Source approach in a specialized domain.},

abstract = {In recent years, many open source software (OSS) products have become popular and widely used in the information technology (IT) business. To successfully run IT business, it is important to properly understand the OSS development status. Having a proper understanding of development status is necessary to evaluate and predict the product quality. However, the OSS development status is not easy to understand, because it is often concurrently developed by many distributed contributors, and its developmental structure is complicated. To aid the understanding of the development status, there is an approach that models the trend of source code change events (evolution) with a growth curve. Although an application of growth curves seems to be a promising approach, there has been a big issue that a single growth curve is often unsuitable for modeling the whole evolution because of its complex evolutionary behavior. This paper proposes a multistage model that divides the whole development period into some stages, and applies a different growth curve to a different stage. The empirical investigation in this paper shows that the switching points of stages have meaningful associations with the release dates.},

We found that newcomers are not a homogenous group and majority of them display "model" behavior. We also found out that community response is critical for continued participation of newcomers. In our dataset, almost all non returning newcomers can be attributed to receiving no reply or a condescending reply from the community. We found that one third of newcomers' transition into a role of help givers in the community and demonstrate evidence of learning. We also highlight best practices for newcomers to be successful in these online communities.},

abstract = {Historically, mailing lists have been the preferred means for coordinating development and user support activities. With the emergence and popularity growth of social Q&A sites such as the StackExchange network (e.g., StackOverflow), this is beginning to change. Such sites offer different socio-technical incentives to their participants than mailing lists do, e.g., rich web environments to store and manage content collaboratively, or a place to showcase their knowledge and expertise more vividly to peers or potential recruiters. A key difference between StackExchange and mailing lists is gamification, i.e., StackExchange participants compete to obtain reputation points and badges. In this paper, we use a case study of R (a widely-used tool for data analysis) to investigate how mailing list participation has evolved since the launch of StackExchange. Our main contribution is the assembly of a joint data set from the two sources, in which participants in both the texttt{r-help} mailing list and StackExchange are identifiable. This permits their activities to be linked across the two resources and also over time. With this data set we found that user support activities show a strong shift away from texttt{r-help}. In particular, mailing list experts are migrating to StackExchange, where their behaviour is different. First, participants active both on texttt{r-help} and on StackExchange are more active than those who focus exclusively on only one of the two. Second, they provide faster answers on StackExchange than on texttt{r-help}, suggesting they are motivated by the emph{gamified} environment. To our knowledge, our study is the first to directly chart the changes in behaviour of specific contributors as they migrate into gamified environments, and has important implications for knowledge management in software engineering.},

In this paper, we present a systematic review of open source software (OSS) evolution. The objective of this review is to obtain an overview of the existing studies in open source software evolution, with the intention of achieving an understanding of how software evolvability (i.e., a software system’s ability to easily accommodate changes) is addressed during development and evolution of open source software. The primary studies for this review were identified based on a pre-defined search strategy and a multi-step selection process. Based on their research topics, we have identified four main categories of themes: software trends and patterns, evolution process support, evolvability characteristics addressed in OSS evolution, and examining OSS at software architecture level. A comprehensive overview and synthesis of these categories and related studies is presented as well.},

abstract = {COTS software products are developed extensively on top of OSS projects, resulting in OSS reuse vulnerabilities. To detect such vulnerabilities, finding OSS reuses in COTS software has become imperative. While scalable to tens of thousands of OSS projects, existing binary-to-source matching approaches are severely imprecise in analyzing COTS software products, since they support only a limited number of code features, compute matching scores only approximately in measuring OSS reuses, and neglect the code structures in OSS projects.We introduce a novel binary-to-source matching approach, called B2SFinder1, to address these limitations. First of all, B2SFinder can reason about seven kinds of code features that are traceable in both binary and source code. In order to compute matching scores precisely, B2SFinder employs a weighted feature matching algorithm that combines three matching methods (for dealing with different code features) with two importance-weighting methods (for computing the weight of an instance of a code feature in a given COTS software application based on its specificity and occurrence frequency). Finally, B2SFinder identifies different types of code reuses based on matching scores and code structures of OSS projects. We have implemented B2SFinder using an optimized data structure. We have evaluated B2SFinder using 21991 binaries from 1000 popular COTS software products and 2189 candidate OSS projects. Our experimental results show that B2SFinder is not only precise but also scalable. Compared with the state of the art, B2SFinder has successfully found up to 2.15x as many reuse cases in 53.85 seconds per binary file on average. We also discuss how B2SFinder can be leveraged in detecting OSS reuse vulnerabilities in practice.},

Although several surveys have examined the dynamics driving FLOSS contributors, most focus either on the motivations of core developers or indicators of potential long-term commitment, i.e. the small but quite involved and visible minority at the core of a project. Our survey in contrast examines the experiences of the much larger, but nearly invisible group of developers who are just making and submitting their first patch, and identifies barriers that hinder or even prevent them from making a valuable contribution.},

abstract = {This paper presents the first entirely open-source and cross-platform software called Open3DGen for reconstructing photorealistic textured 3D models from RGB-D images. The proposed software pipeline consists of nine main stages: 1) RGB-D acquisition; 2) 2D feature extraction; 3) camera pose estimation; 4) point cloud generation; 5) coarse mesh reconstruction; 6) optional loop closure; 7) fine mesh reconstruction; 8) UV unwrapping; and 9) texture projection. This end-to-end scheme combines multiple state-of-the-art techniques and provides an easy-to-use software package for real-time 3D model reconstruction and offline texture mapping. The main innovation lies in various Structure-from-Motion (SfM) techniques that are used with additional depth data to yield high-quality 3D models in real-time and at low cost. The functionality of Open3DGen has been validated on AMD Ryzen 3900X CPU and Nvidia GTX1080 GPU. This proof-of-concept setup attains an average processing speed of 15 fps for 720p (1280x720) RGBD input without the offline backend. Our solution is shown to provide competitive 3D mesh quality and execution performance with the state-of-the-art commercial and academic solutions.},

abstract = {The usage of Open Source Software (OSS) has been extended in a wide range of business fields not only IT industries. Behind this current situation, there are tremendous inputs by the volunteer engineers in the development communities. In this series of studies, we have conducted questionnaire survey to Japanese IT companies in 2012 and 2013, and then analyzed the relation between OSS utilization and development contribution, and how these affect the business growth. Our study revealed that Japanese IT companies are rather free riders of OSS, the volume of development contributions are far less than that of utilization. From our previous studies, it was anticipated that some OSS-related factors were affecting the business growth; however, clear evidence has not been found. In autumn 2014, we conducted the questionnaire survey for the third time and this paper presents the survey results as the second report of the continued research. We constructed the simplified Logistic Model to investigate the influential factors on business growth. However, no clear evidence was found as the same as the previous study. In summary, we conclude that there are some form of relationships between OSS utilization and development contribution, but these are not the determinant factors on the business growth in the Japanese IT companies at present.},

For the healthcare sector, the use of OSS has been studied in the literature with contradicting findings. Regarding OSS in clinical applications, mainly case studies from hospital-wide IS have been reported. Agile methods have been examined merely in the context of healthcare software product development. However, the development of web-based applications in clinical departments using agile methods and OSS has not been studied so far. Thus, in this paper the feasibility of such an approach is examined for an electronic case report form (eCRF) application for orthopaedical studies. It is demonstrated how OSS-based web engineering projects may be successfully accomplished in highly specialized environments like clinical departments by properly taking into account their specific requirements.},

The framework incorporates a database that stores all relevant information obtained thanks to several mining tools, and provides a unified data source to visualisation tools. One such visualisation tool is integrated in order to get a first quick overview of the evolution of different aspects of the software project under study. The framework is extensible in order to accommodate more and different types of input and output, depending on the needs of the user.

In contrast to industry, where reviews are typically assigned to specific individuals, changes are broadcast to hundreds of potentially interested stakeholders. Despite concerns that reviews may be ignored, or that discussions will deadlock because too many uninformed stakeholders are involved, we find that this approach works well in practice. In this paper, we describe an empirical study to investigate the mechanisms and behaviours that developers use to find code changes they are competent to review. We also explore how stakeholders interact with one another during the review process. We manually examine hundreds of reviews across five high profile OSS projects. Our findings provide insights into the simple, community-wide techniques that developers use to effectively manage large quantities of reviews. The themes that emerge from our study are enriched and validated by interviewing long-serving core developers.},

Our implementation of the voice gateway successfully integrates the mobile telephone network with automatic speech recognition, text to speech synthesis for English and Hindi, and web navigation systems based on open standards and using open source software. We describe three voice enabled m-governance G2C applications on the open source Android platform. The platform specific m-governance applications can be downloaded directly on a mobile phone through mobile browsers for their use by citizens.},

We developed JamTool, a Java Automated Measurement Tool [4] to obtain the metrics and to observe the quality change along the evolution of the twenty-two released versions of JFreeChart. The empirical study clearly indicates that there are positive relations between the number of classes and the fan-in/out coupling, and the added class group has better software quality than the removed class group. Moreover, the experimental results follow Lehman's 1st, 2nd, 6th laws but against 7th law of software evolution.},

abstract = {Technological development has become so manifest in all fields that it is now highly crucial to take it into consideration whenever possible. Open Source Software (OSS) has becoming widely adopted by commercial, public and academic organisations. Currently, there is increasing interest and demand in the existing applications of OSS in all fields all over the world. OSS has increased in prominence in the last decade, mostly due to the success of well-known software organisations such as Apache, Mozilla, Linux and Guice. As these organisations have become more dependent on software, the effective management of Software Evolution (SE) becomes more critical to an organization’s success. Therefore, the provision of well-evolved OSS has become an urgent issue in these days and will be so in the future. Therefore, the major challenge in OSS is how to evolve its environment, especially improvements in the security and quality of these systems. The main aim of this paper is to measure the evolution of OSS using, Eclipse Metrics (EM), with Guice software (GS) as a case study. In addition, this paper gives a brief literature review on OSS and how it has evolved.},

In these 10 years, FOSS on campuses has begun to find its local meanings and grasp teachers' and students' attention. The purpose of this paper is to investigate FOSS on campuses in Taiwan in terms of its development, its local significances and the difficulties encountered in promotion, in the hope of providing an understanding and interpretation of FOSS in the context of education. The results indicate that the majority of teachers and students do not recognize or identify with the cultural values embedded in FOSS but use it as a tool to solve educational problems. In order to promote the use of FOSS on campuses, efforts are needed to address the difficulties in the use of FOSS as well as cultural difficulties related to it.},

abstract = {The usage of Open Source Software (OSS) has been more general these days and OSS are utilized in a wide range of business fields not only IT industries. Behind the expansion, there exist OSS development communities, where voluntary engineers dedicate their time and effort for the improvement. Considering development engineers in the companies as input resources, it is important to investigate the output of business growth. In this study, we conducted questionnaire survey to Japanese IT companies in 2013, and then analyzed the present state and relation between OSS utilization and development contribution. Our study revealed that Japanese IT companies are rather free riders of OSS, the volume of development contributions are far less than that of utilization. With regard to the effect on the business growth, the results of correlation analysis implicate that OSS utilization is related to the sales growth in the present term and that development contribution is related to the future growth of the employee number in the company. In order to explore the direct effect on the business growth, we constructed the models of multiple-logistic and logistic analyses, however, no direct and explicit determinants are found from the results of the analyses. Our research endeavors to investigate the OSS effect on the business growth are still on the way, but it is meaningful to provide the present state in numbers and hopefully this will lay some foundation for further study in this field.},

isbn = {9781467330763},
publisher = {IEEE Press},
abstract = {Efficient bug triaging procedures are an important precondition for successful collaborative software engineering projects. Triaging bugs can become a laborious task particularly in open source software (OSS) projects with a large base of comparably inexperienced part-time contributors. In this paper, we propose an efficient and practical method to identify valid bug reports which a) refer to an actual software bug, b) are not duplicates and c) contain enough information to be processed right away. Our classification is based on nine measures to quantify the social embeddedness of bug reporters in the collaboration network. We demonstrate its applicability in a case study, using a comprehensive data set of more than 700,000 bug reports obtained from the Bugzilla installation of four major OSS communities, for a period of more than ten years. For those projects that exhibit the lowest fraction of valid bug reports, we find that the bug reporters' position in the collaboration network is a strong indicator for the quality of bug reports. Based on this finding, we develop an automated classification scheme that can easily be integrated into bug tracking platforms and analyze its performance in the considered OSS communities. A support vector machine (SVM) to identify valid bug reports based on the nine measures yields a precision of up to 90.3% with an associated recall of 38.9%. With this, we significantly improve the results obtained in previous case studies for an automated early identification of bugs that are eventually fixed. Furthermore, our study highlights the potential of using quantitative measures of social organization in collaborative software engineering. It also opens a broad perspective for the integration of social awareness in the design of support infrastructures.},

Compared to closed-source software projects, open-source projects are less dependent on external turbulence, but more on its own structure and operation mechanism. In this paper, we assume that the activities of open-source software projects are only dependent on time. We use time series analysis techniques to study the time dependence of open-source software activities. The activities of open-source Software projects are extracted from mailing lists, bug reports, and revision history. Three mailing list (Linux, FreeBSD, and Apache HTTP), two bug archives (Eclipse and Apache Software Foundation), and one revision history (Apache Software Foundation) are mined. Various time series analysis techniques are used. We find that some activities of some open-source projects are cyclic and seasonally dependent, some are cyclic but seasonally independent, and some are acyclic. We build regression models for cyclic activities and analyzed their model accuracy.},

Usually these communities do not coordinate the work of the newcomers, who go to the issue trackers and self-select a task to start with. We found that "finding a way to start" was reported as an important issue by practitioners. To further investigate this specific barrier, we conducted a qualitative analysis with data obtained from semi-structured interviews with 36 subjects from 14 different projects, including newcomers and experienced members. We used procedures of Grounded Theory--open and axial coding--to analyze the data. We found that newcomers are not confident enough to choose their initial task and they need information about the tasks or direction from the community to support choosing a task more suitable for them. We also present a set of strategies identified in the literature, interviews, and state-of-the-practice that can provide newcomers with such information, enabling them to be more confident when choosing their first tasks and collaborate with the community.},

abstract = {Background: Open Source Software (OSS) is increasingly used in product development. Besides some much-reported benefits of this approach, using OSS products also presents new challenges. One such challenge is identifying relevant, high-quality OSS products among the hundreds of thousands that are available. One approach for doing that is to identify architectural patterns, since these patterns have a direct effect on a product's quality attributes, such as performance and reliability. However, there are no well-defined methods or tools available to identify architectural patterns.Research aim: Our goal is to identify approaches taken by novice software engineers that have no or little experience in identifying architectural patterns. We aim to get insight into how these novices tackle this problem, what challenges they encounter and what suggestions they have for improving this process.Method: We collected data from seven M. Sc. student teams that performed a pattern identification assignment. We conducted semi-structured interviews with eight students from two teams. We studied reflection reports from four teams that reported their experiences as part of their final report. Furthermore, during his M. Sc. course, one of the authors performed the assignment as a member of a team. We also included his experiences.Results and conclusions: We identified a number of approaches that students have taken in order to identify architectural patterns, as well as a number of challenges that they encountered in this task. Furthermore, based on suggestions from the students, we present a proposal to improve this process.},

These characterize what has been analyzed in FOSSD studies across levels that examine (i) why individuals participate; (ii) resources and capabilities supporting development activities; (iii) how cooperation, coordination, and control are realized in projects; (iv) alliance formation and inter-project social networking; (v) FOSS as a multi-project software ecosystem, and (vi) FOSS as a social movement. Next, there is a discussion of limitations and constraints in the FOSSD studies so far. Last, attention shifts to identifying emerging opportunities for future FOSSD studies that can give rise to the development of new software engineering tools or techniques, as well as to new empirical studies of software development.},

abstract = {Free and open source software (FOSS) is often distributed in binary packages, sometimes part of GNU/Linux operating system distributions, or part of products distributed/sold to users. FOSS creates great opportunities for users, developers and integrators, however it is important for them to understand the licensing requirements of any package they use. Determining the license of a package and assessing whether it depends on other software with incompatible licenses is not trivial. Although this task has been done in a labor intensive manner by software distributions, automatic tools to perform this analysis are highly desired. This paper proposes a method to understand licensing compatibility issues in software packages, and reports an empirical study aimed at auditing licensing issues in binary packages of the Fedora-12 GNU/Linux distribution. The objective of this study is (i) to understand how the license declared in packages is consistent with those of source code files, and (ii) to audit the licensing information of Fedora-12, highlighting cases of incompatibilities between dependent packages. The obtained results—supported by feedback received from Fedora contributors—show that there exist many nuances in determining the license of a binary package from its source code, as well as cases of license incompatibility issues due to package dependencies.},

At the module level, linking mechanisms, which describe how a module is attached with other modules, are proposed. The linking mechanisms are modeled as probability functions dependent on the degrees of linking modules. A case study from an open source software project, Drupal, is presented. The evolutionary trends of Drupal product structures are analyzed and discussed. Finally, a model is presented to illustrate the effects of linking mechanisms at the module level on the product structures at the system level. The results indicate that the model built using the proposed linking mechanisms generates networks whose evolutionary characteristics are close to that of the original network.},

OSS has been identified as a facilitator for small enterprises in emerging markets to implement an Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure at reduced cost. However, its diffusion in South Africa has been rather slow. This research aims to highlight OSS adoption factors applicable to small enterprises. The Technology-Organisation-Environment (TOE) framework was used to guide the data analysis. This research also attempts to identify additional factors which are unique to the context of this research and evaluate their implication on the OSS adoption decision.Although there are many factors influencing the adoption decision by smaller enterprises, the lack of knowledge and exposure were fundamental to the slow diffusion of OSS. Factors contributing to this lack of product knowledge were the lack of OSS marketing and easily accessible OSS vendors.},

abstract = {A Web browser provides a uniform user interface to different types of information. Making this interface universally accessible and more interactive is a long term goal still far from being achieved. Universally accessible browsers require novel interaction modalities and additional functionalities, for which existing browsers tend to provide only partial solutions. Although functionality for Web accessibility can be found as open source and free software components, their reuse and integration is complex because they were developed in diverse implementation environments, following standards and conventions incompatible with the Web.To enable the integration of existing partial solutions within a mainstream Web browser environment, we have developed a middleware infrastructure, AMICO:WEB. This enables browser access to a wide variety of open source and free software components. The main contribution of AMICO:WEB is in enabling the syntactic interoperability between Web extension mechanisms and a variety of integration mechanisms used by open source and free software components. It also bridges the semantic differences between the high-level world of Web XML-based APIs and the low-level APIs of the device-oriented world.We discuss the design decisions made during the development of AMICO:WEB in the context of Web accessibility, using two typical usage scenarios: one describing a disabled user using a mainstream Web browser with additional interaction modalities; another describing a non-disabled user browsing in a suboptimal interaction situation.},

abstract = {One of the major challenges the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Ground Forces (GF) Battle Lab (BL) has been facing in recent years is the introduction of new simulation technologies and methods, under tight development schedule constraints. Introducing new technologies requires a "proof of concept" process in order to decide on the profitability of further development. Using Open Source software solutions in the BL helped make this process quicker and more efficient.The BL has been developing its proprietary Computer Generated Forces (CGF) for approximately 10 years. This CGF is mainly intended for simulating ground entities and has various capabilities for autonomous movement. Over the years, as the visual systems have improved and due to the introduction of urban environments simulation, the need for realistic movement characteristics, especially human, became important. An in-house solution, developed by the CGF team, appeared to consume too much development effort and was not extendable enough. After analyzing the problem and reviewing various third-party solutions, the CGF team decided on using an Open Source (OS) library called OpenSteer.Until recently, ground vehicle simulations in the BL used a low fidelity non-physical movement mode, based on ground clamping. In 2006 the BL got involved in research areas related to Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) and human-robotics interactions. During early research stages it became clear that it would be necessary to simulate the UGV dynamics in higher fidelity than was done before. The development team decided to initiate the "proof of concept" process before full scale development. Therefore a quick solution for a high-fidelity vehicle simulation was searched for. After a brief review of third party solutions, an OS library, Open Dynamics Engine (ODE) was chosen. Developing a UGV simulation required an autonomous movement model which appeared to have similar characteristics to the one developed by the CGF team based on OpenSteer. Since OpenSteer was not originally intended for simulating rigid-body vehicles, the development team faced the challenge of integrating both products, OpenSteer and ODE. This paper will describe the steps taken in order to assimilate OS products in the BL simulation test-bed and lessons learned.},

abstract = {Nowadays open source software has become an indispensable basis for both individual and industrial software engineering. Various kinds of labeling mechanisms like categories, keywords and tags are used in open source communities to annotate projects and facilitate the discovery of certain software. However, as large amounts of software are attached with no/few labels or the existing labels are from different ontology space, it is still hard to retrieve potentially topic-relevant software. This paper highlights the valuable semantic information of project descriptions and labels, proposes labeled software topic detection (LSTD), a hybrid approach combining topic models and ranking mechanisms to detect and enrich the topics of software by mining the large amount of textual software profiles, which can be employed to do software categorization and tag recommendation. L-STD makes use of labeled LDA to capture the semantic correlations between labels and descriptions and then construct the label-based topic-word matrix. Based on the generated matrix and the generality of labels, LSTD designs a simple yet efficient algorithm to detect the latent topics of software that expressed as relevant and popular labels. Comprehensive evaluations are conducted on the large-scale datasets of representative open source communities and the results validate the effectiveness of LSTD.},

High-caliber decisions require a clear-sighted, non-dogmatic grasp of the contexts in which government enterprises today deploy both proprietary and open-source software in heterogeneous IT environments. This article addresses the topic, and describes ways in which proprietary and open-source software developers are drawing upon each other's development, licensing and business models. The article illustrates how today's IT world is no longer an "either/or" world in which customers and vendors chose to be either proprietary or open source. Instead, it is an attractive world of "both/and" as the lines between proprietary and open source have, making interoperable deployments almost inevitable in many if not most cases.},

However trying something new in the classroom though can be daunting, and many barriers to entry exist. Locating an appropriate project, trying to figure out how to incorporate a dynamic, real-world project into the curriculum and learning how to interact with the project's community each present their own set of challenges. This BOF provides a gathering place for faculty who are interested in student participation in FOSS or HFOSS. The discussion will include an overview of an NSF-funded project, OpenFE. The goal of OpenFE is to develop faculty expertise in working with HFOSS projects and to develop curriculum materials that support faculty members in bringing this approach into their classrooms. The members of the OpenFE team will discuss plans for this grant and welcome both novices and experienced contributors to join us and provide feedback.},

Survey data collected from 118 OSS developers on Sourceforge.net was used to test the research model. The results indicate that leaders' transformational leadership is positively related to developers' intrinsic motivation and leaders' active management by exception, a form of transactional leadership, is positively related to developers' extrinsic motivation.},

At the same time, the success of Open Source Software (OSS) has also sparked interest of researchers in the universities and in the software industry. OSS has been largely used and developed and, as a consequence, the OSS quality has been a concern and an interesting subject for researchers. However, in spite of narrow relation between software architecture and software quality, there is lack of more detailed works that investigate how software architecture can influence OSS quality. In this paper, we present a case study reporting how software architecture is directly related to OSS quality. We have hence proposed architecture refactoring activity in order to repair software architectures, aiming at improving mainly maintainability, functionality and usability of these systems.},

abstract = {Peer review is seen as an important quality assurance mechanism in both industrial development and the open source software (OSS) community. The techniques for performing inspections have been well studied in industry; in OSS development, peer reviews are less well understood. We examine the two peer review techniques used by the successful, mature Apache server project: review-then-commit and commit-then-review. Using archival records of email discussion and version control repositories, we construct a series of metrics that produces measures similar to those used in traditional inspection experiments. Specifically, we measure the frequency of review, the level of participation in reviews, the size of the artifact under review, the calendar time to perform a review, and the number of reviews that find defects. We provide a comparison of the two Apache review techniques as well as a comparison of Apache review to inspection in an industrial project. We conclude that Apache reviews can be described as (1) early, frequent reviews (2) of small, independent, complete contributions (3) conducted asynchronously by a potentially large, but actually small, group of self-selected experts (4) leading to an efficient and effective peer review technique.},

Organizational boundary literature is interested in the tensions of online communities, including FLOSS communities. While this literature recognizes the importance of managing boundaries in online communities, little empirical research has been conducted on actual gatekeeping tactics project members perform against outsiders’ contributions. Based on several years of engaged research with FLOSS projects, we characterize three gatekeeping tactics in FLOSS projects: non-response, social exclusion, and false acceptance. They all have hindered usability work. We also offer examples of usability specialists and their contributions succeeding in avoiding these gatekeeping tactics in FLOSS projects. This paper provides an important contribution to the boundary management literature through detailed examination of gatekeeping tactics in action, as well as to the Human Computer Interaction literature interested in contributing to FLOSS projects through usability work.},

Another approach to increase productivity and experience significant cost savings is to utilize Open Source (OS) components in software development. This paper presents the state of the art of how to combine MDD methods with OS software development. The approach is called Open Models software development which is expected to combine the benefits of both worlds. The fundamental idea of Open Models development is to apply community-driven collaborative MDD. In this paper, Open Models development is exemplified by constructing Resource Availability Service (RAS). RAS is a web service for providing availability information about resources such as services, content, users and terminals. This paper shows that Open Models development is feasible from technical point of view although there are still great challenges in tooling. In addition, more empirical research is needed in studying attractiveness of Open Models.},

This article deals with the reuse of ADempiere within the framework of the implementation of a service oriented ERP. To operate the migration of the existing code, firstly we reconstituted the architecture of this ERP. This operation made it possible to acquire the technical knowledge necessary to develop services by injection of dependence. The new software resulting from this operation distinctly separates the presentation tier from the back-end. The back-end tier exposes a set of Web services which encapsulates the code of ADempiere. These services can either be in a synchronous way throughout the Spring XFire technology, or in an asynchronous way through Apache ActiveMQ technology},

abstract = {Over the past two decades, a rich ecosystem of open-source software has evolved. For every type of application, there are a wide variety of alternatives. We observed that even if different applications that perform similar tasks and compiled with the same versions of the compiler and the libraries, they perform very differently while running on the same system. Sadly prior work in this area that compares two code bases for similarities does not help us in finding the reasons for the differences in performance.In this paper, we develop a tool, SoftMon, that can compare the codebases of two separate applications and pinpoint the exact set of functions that are disproportionately responsible for differences in performance. Our tool uses machine learning and NLP techniques to analyze why a given open-source application has a lower performance as compared to its peers, design bespoke applications that can incorporate specific innovations (identified by SoftMon) in competing applications, and diagnose performance bugs.In this paper, we compare a wide variety of large open-source programs such as image editors, audio players, text editors, PDF readers, mail clients and even full-fledged operating systems (OSs). In all cases, our tool was able to pinpoint a set of at the most 10-15 functions that are responsible for the differences within 200 seconds. A subsequent manual analysis assisted by our graph visualization engine helps us find the reasons. We were able to validate most of the reasons by correlating them with subsequent observations made by developers or from existing technical literature. The manual phase of our analysis is limited to 30 minutes (tested with human subjects).},

abstract = {Learning software security has become a complex and difficult task today than it was even a decade ago. With the increased complexity of computer systems and a variety of applications, it is hard for software developers to master the expertise required to deal with the variety of security concepts, methods, and technologies that are required in software projects. Although a large number of security learning materials are widely available in books, open literature or on the Internet, they are difficult for learners to understand the rationale of security topics and correlate the concepts with real software scenarios. We argue that the traditional approach, which usually organizes knowledge content topically, with security-centric, is not suitable to motivate learners and stimulate learners' interest. To tackle this learning issue, our research is focused on forging a contextualized learning environment for software security where learners can explore security knowledge and relate it to the context that they are familiar with. This learning system is developed base on our proposed context-based learning approach and based on ontological technologies. In this paper, we present our evaluation study in the open source software (OSS) development environment. Our results demonstrate that contextualized learning can help OSS developers identify their necessary security information, improve learning efficiency and make security knowledge more meaningful for their software development tasks},

To validate such claims, researchers have conducted case studies of "successful" open source development projects. This case study of the FreeBSD project provides further understanding of open source development. The FreeBSD development process is fairly well-defined with proscribed methods for determining developer responsibilities, dealing with enhancements and defects, and for managing releases. Compared to the Apache project, FreeBSD uses a smaller set of core developers that implement a smaller portion of the system, and uses a more well-defined testing process. FreeBSD and Apache have a similar ratio of core developers to (1) people involved in adapting and debugging the system, and (2) people who report problems. Both systems have similar defect densities, and the developers are also users in both systems.},

While some of these projects are active and thriving, some projects are either languishing or showing no development activities at all. This phenomenon thus begs the important question of what are the influential factors that affect the success of open source projects. In a quest to deepen our understanding of the evolution of open source projects, this research aims to analyze the success of open source projects by using the theoretical lens of social network analysis. Based on extensive analyses of data collected from online repositories, we study the impact of the communication patterns of software development teams on the demand and supply outcomes of these projects, while accounting for project-specific characteristics. Using panel data analysis of data over 13 months, we find significant impacts of communication patterns on project outcomes over the long term.},

For loosely coupled forms of organization, such as open source systems (OSS) development projects, there are very few approaches to ensure the quality of project reporting; a promising approach can be to augment human reporting with data analysis based on the communication and state changes in an OSS project. In this paper we propose a concept and an initial measurement approach for event-based monitoring of OSS projects to better understand the actual benefit of tool-supported gathering, correlating and analyzing processes event data from the OSS community as a supplement for traditional software project monitoring data collection.

We use proxies based on empirical data collection to provide insight into the degree of Open Source software adoption which has already occurred. Software tools were developed to analyze web host software on the public Internet within each ASEAN country's country-level domain. Other empirical indicators include Linux User Group (LUG) existence and activity. The study found that government Open Source policies do not appear to be a consistent factor among those ASEAN countries with the highest degree of Open Source software adoption. Other environmental factors appear to be more influential at this point in time.},

abstract = {Engaging students in humanitarian free and open source software (HFOSS) projects allows them to gain real-world software development skills while helping society. Participating in an existing HFOSS project, although ripe with learning opportunities, presents a number of hurdles for faculty and students. An alternative to joining an existing HFOSS project community is to participate in a faculty-led HFOSS project. These projects provide the instructor with more control over the learning environment, but often lack an active community outside of the classroom. This paper describes a multi-institutional effort to engage a community of developers in creating humanitarian open source projects to support their on-campus food pantries. Food insecurity on campus has become a national concern and many institutions have, or are starting, food pantries to support the student, staff, and faculty community. Starting a faculty-led HFOSS project involves making decisions not only about the features of the project but also about community norms, tool choices, project development workflow, and inter-institution cooperation. This paper provides an overview of the creation of LibreFoodPantry, a community who is developing a suite of projects that support on-campus food pantries. It describes instances of using LibreFoodPantry's projects in various classroom settings, the lessons learned from these experiences, and the resulting discussions and decisions made by the LibreFoodPantry Coordinating Committee. This process has led to a community dedicated to easing the on-ramp for faculty who want to help their students contribute to an HFOSS project.},

There is a real need for a widely adopted, standardized method to assess the interoperability of open source software. However, few groups or researchers have given the guide up to now. This paper proposed Bayesian Network to construct the structure of interoperability and then learn the condition probability table of the structure. The structure and its condition probability table constitute the interoperability model. The model can be used not only to help user evaluate the interoperability of open source software, but also to guide the software developer to improve the quality of open source software more efficiently. An application showed how to use the model, and the result proved the validity of this model.},

Previous work done by Hinds [5] suggested social network structure was instrumental towards the success of an OSS project, as measured by activity and output. The follow-up paper by Hinds [4] discovered that his hypotheses, based on social network theory and previous research on the importance of subgroup connectedness, were vastly different than the results of his study of over 100 successful OSS projects. He concluded that the social network structure had no significant effect on project success. We outline how his approach disregarded potentially important factors and through a new study evaluate the role of the OSS developer network as it pertains to long-term project popularity. We also present an initial investigation into the adequacy of using the SourceForge activity percentile as a long-term success metric. In contrast with Hinds, we show that previously existing developer-developer ties are an indicator of past and future project popularity.},

abstract = {In this article a perspective of relating various Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects and linking different FLOSS developers is given. Specifically, by viewing projects and developers as characterized by their choices of features such as intended audiences, licenses, programming languages, operating systems, and topics, two-mode networks are generated to link projects (or developers) to their feature choices. Based on the generated networks, similarities among projects and among developers are calculated, and projects (or developers) are clustered through their measured similarities. Implication to this perspective can be the provision of project and developer recommendation services to extend developers' social networks beyond their participated projects and also to facilitate the sharing of information. This perspective also opens the possibility of discovering free software ideologists in FLOSS community.},

abstract = {In spite of the overwhelming success of Free/Open Source Software (F/OSS) like Apache and GNU/Linux, there is a limited understanding of the processes and methodologies that specify this form of software development. In this paper, we examine the process of patch reviews as a proxy for the extent of code-review in F/OSS projects. While existing descriptions of patch review processes are mostly narrative and based on individual experiences, we systematically analyze the email archives of five F/OSS projects to characterize this process. While doing so, we make a distinction between contributions (patches or review comments) by core members and casual contributors to grasp the role of core members in this process. Our results show that while the patch review processes are not exactly identical across various F/OSS projects, the core members across all projects play the vital role of gate-keepers to ensure a high level of review for submitted patches.},

Universities like Harvard and Stanford now offer courses on open source as a business and also on how businesses can compete with open source firms. However, very little research has been published in regards to the influence of OSS on business strategies; the use of OSS as a viable business or its value proposition within a commercial entity. The business model, a powerful tool for extracting economic value from the potential of technological innovation, clearly plays an important role in the success of a business. In this paper we investigate the role of open source in the business models of Red Hat and IBM and describe how OSS has contributed to their success. A framework recently developed by some of the authors is used to evaluate and identify the key factors important to the integration of OSS strategies into traditional business models.},

abstract = {The defect-fixing process is a key process in which an open source software (OSS) project team responds to customer needs in terms of detecting and resolving software defects, hence the dimension of defect-fixing effectiveness corresponds nicely to adopters' concerns regarding OSS products. Although researchers have been studying the defect fixing process in OSS projects for almost a decade, the literature still lacks rigorous ways to measure the effectiveness of this process. Thus, this paper aims to create a valid and reliable instrument to measure the defect-fixing effectiveness construct in an open source environment through the scale development methodology proposed by Churchill [4]. This paper examines the validity and reliability of an initial list of indicators through two rounds of data collection and analysis. Finally four indicators are suggested to measure defect-fixing effectiveness. The implication for practitioners is explained through a hypothetical example followed by implications for the research community.},

abstract = {The use of open-source software in many institutions and organizations is increasing. However, a balance should be considered between the software cost and the cost of its technical support and reliability. In this article, a maintenance system for wind farms will be presented. It is connected to an information system for maintenance, called SMIT (Terology Integrated Modular System) as a general base to manage the assets and as a support strategic line to the evolution of this system, which incorporates on-condition maintenance modules, and the support to the research and development done around this theme. The SMIT system is based on a TCP/IP network, using a Linux server running a PostgreSQL database and Apache web server with PHP, and Octave and R software for numerical analysis. Maintenance technicians, chiefs, economic and production management personnel can access SMIT database through SMIT clients for Windows. In addition, this maintenance system for wind systems uses also special low cost hardware for data acquisition on floor level. The hardware uses a distributed TCP/IP network to synchronize SMIT server master clock through Precision Time Protocol. Usually, the manufactures construct, deploy and give the means for the suppliers to perform the wind system's maintenance. This is a very competitive area, where companies tend to hide the development details and implementations. Within this scenario, the development of maintenance management models for multiple wind equipments is important, and will allow countries to be more competitive in a growing market. For on-condition monitoring, the algorithms are based on Support Vector Machines and time series analysis running under Octave and R open-source software's.},

This paper therefore contributes to the practice of sampling methods in OSS research and provides empirical data on reuse dependencies in Debian.},

abstract = {Open source software is making a large impact on many aspects of society including the business community, the computing industry, the entertainment industry and higher education. The computer science education community has been quiet about issues of open source versus closed source and the role of open source code in the advancement of information technology. A survey of recent issues of SIGCSE Bulletin and SIGCSE conference proceedings shows little attention to the role open source software should play in computer science education. We are here to raise the question: "What are the social and ethical responsibilities of computer science faculty regarding open source software?"One set of issues concerns the use of open source software in teaching and the use of open source development models in the teaching of software development. Some basic questions that arise include "Should analysis of open source (and possible contributions to it) be the subject of class assignments?" and "Should open source software development models be taught?"A second set of issues concerns the use of open source software in support of teaching (e.g., using Linux as your standard platform). Some basic questions that arise include "Should we use open source software to support teaching?" and "Are these faculty ethically obligated to make contributions to the open source software base?"In this panel we will identify many of the parties involved in the ethical and social issues surrounding the use of open source in teaching and in the support of teaching, and we will identify the rights and responsibilities we, as faculty, have to the various parties. This panel will initiate a discussion that will identify additional parties and our further professional obligations.},

abstract = {In this study open source software was examined from an archaeological perspective. The objective: to explore the evolution of a long-lived open source project with the intention of learning how code evolution has progressed over time. This investigation provides a case study of Nethack, an enormously popular open source game that has been in development for more than a decade. The Goal Question Metric approach was employed to derive measurement goals for the evaluation of open source software (OSS) evolution in Nethack. According to Lehman's laws, the incremental growth size of successive releases tends to decline during the active life of an evolving program. Our results demonstrate that the evolution patterns observed for Nethack do not consistently conform to Lehman's laws. The growth in Nethack's tarball distribution size, as well as lines of code, exhibited a linear increase in growth in this investigation. Additionally, Lehman's laws dictate that the complexity of a system will increase as it ages. Interestingly, in Nethack, the McCabe cyclomatic complexity was found to decrease with successive releases while the Halstead complexity increased. These results suggest that while the structure complexity of Nethack declined with successive releases, the complexity of calculational logic increased. These findings raise questions concerning the evolution of other OSS applications.},

As an innovative contribution, this paper proposes a collective intelligence (CI) approach for improving the free software adoption by small and medium-sized municipalities. To build this CI-approach, the authors have analyzed the dynamic of the communities hosted by Brazilian Public Software (BPS) Portal and the actions related to implementation of software solution in Brazilian municipalities. They started by identifying key variables and their relationship, and mining data from the communities whose software solutions have been successfully implemented in the municipalities according to player reports available in BPS portal. Such as the relationships demonstrate, these players have been appropriated the knowledge related to solutions and created new business to support the modernization of public administration. Based on reports and statistical analysis, the authors could understand both the dynamic of the successful communities and the adoption phenomena by municipalities as a consequence of individual initiatives. The results indicate that a CI-approach based on 5W1H can improve the knowledge sharing and promote the best practice in the free software adoption by small and medium-sized municipalities.},

In the OSS domain, it is perceived that OSS has the potential to deliver better value for money, high quality software, secure, flexible, stable and reliable network applications. The South African (SA) government acknowledges that OSS is a viable alternative to proprietary software especially on the servers. According to the data collected (survey) from various SA government departments and agencies, indications are that OSS is not fully implemented on the network servers, although the global trends indicate high usage of OSS within the network environment. The main aim of this paper is to propose a roadmap that can be used to aid SA ministries to increase OSS usage.},

The policy of the Icelandic government deals with both the use and the development of free and open source software.This paper takes a close look at the free and open source software policies, particularly the Icelandic one, from a software development perspective. The goal is to show how governments can utilize free and open source software when customized software is required. The paper also touches upon licensing issues for free and open source software by discussing the European Union Public License.Governmental project management and services of small software companies and the free and open source community are the focal points of the research. The basis of the research is the i2010 policy framework of the European Commission. The paper concludes by proposing a suitable methodology to use for governmental software development and recommending tools that foster both development and management, with emphasis on the latter.},

abstract = {A large number of high quality Open Source Software (OSS) reuse libraries has been developed, and has been becoming increasingly adopted by many software development organizations. Programmers who reuse such OSS libraries often rely on the online peer support platforms such as dedicated mailing lists to seek help from other programmers. However, there is little research in understanding and evaluating how effective such online peer support platforms are for OSS reuse libraries. By detailed studies of mailing lists of two popular OSS libraries (Lucene-Java and Apache Commons), this paper attempts to understand the effectiveness of mailing listbased peer support system. The results indicate that mailing lists are very responsive to the needs of reusing programmers, and this responsiveness is largely fueled by the strong involvement of library developers.},

While research of a few, large, successful projects have provided insights into the nature and practices of the open source software community; it still leaves open the question about the thousands of other open source projects which are neither large or highly successful. In this paper, we describe a data set of SourceForge.net, the world's largest open source software development site, which is available for research purposes; we discuss various data mining techniques that can be applied to the data and the type of research questions that can be answered. We apply a few of these techniques and provide analysis of the results.},

The time of Open Source in health care is yet to come though several successful stories has been marked already. There are some specifics of Open Source in health care that are investigated in the paper. On the basis of these specifics some recommendations are proposed to reach the interoperability and integration effect. A concrete example of O3 project is presented which is promoting Open Source adoption in e-health at regional, European and World-wide levels. This project aims to give a contribution to the development of e-health through the study of Healthcare Information Systems and the contemporary proposal of new concepts, designs and solutions for the management of health data in an integrated environment: hospitals, Regional Health Information Organizations and citizens (home-care, mobile-care and ambient assisted living).},

abstract = {Our recent studies on single releases of multiple open-source software (OSS) products showed a higher concentration of dependencies in smaller modules. For one of the products, it was observed that an isolatable and observable refactoring initiative exacerbated this concentration inequality. In this paper, we empirically investigate the dependency concentration in smaller modules from a longitudinal perspective: (1) whether this concentration inequality always exists over product life time; (2) how it changes. We hypothesize that the concentration inequality should either remain at same levels or increase over time. This is because large-scale and long-lived software products usually go through some degree of continuous and intermittent refactoring. Our results show that dependencies concentrate in smaller classes in all releases, and this concentration inequality generally increases over successive releases. We suggest that software practitioners continuously pay a higher QA attention to smaller modules. We also recommend increasing such QA focus as a product matures and goes through refactoring activities.},

abstract = {It is becoming commonplace for companies to contribute to open source software (OSS) projects. At the same time, many software organizations are applying Scrum software development practices, for productivity and quality gains. Scrum calls for self-organizing teams, in which the development team has total control over its development process. However, OSS projects typically have their own processes and standards, which might not mesh well with a company's internal processes, such as Scrum. This paper presents an experience report from Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE), where the "toolchain CPU compiler" team directly participates in the "LLVM" OSS project. The team ran into a number of difficulties when using Scrum to manage their development. In particular, the team often failed to complete Scrum sprints where tasks required interaction with the open source community. We look at how the team redefined task flows to alleviate these difficulties, and eventually evolved a highly modified process, dubbed TWINS (This Workflow Is Not Scrum). We assess the revised process, and compare it to other established agile methods, finding it bears a strong resemblance to Scrumban (the SIE team was not aware of Scrumban previously). The TWINS framework presented here may help other organizations who develop software in-house and engage in OSS projects, to gain the best of both worlds.},

We present a methodological approach to the data sources commonly found in libre (free, open source) software projects over the Internet, explain how to extract these data and enhance them and offer some ways of analyzing it from various perspectives. The whole process has been implemented with tools that automatize the process so that an ample amount of analysis from various angles (that range from software maintenance and software evolution to the social structure of the underlying organization in charge of the development) of a huge amount of software projects has been used as case studies. This work demonstrates that it is possible to build research methodologies that can be applied to a large quantity of software projects and that empirical software engineering studies have not to refer to a limited number of software projects. Although specifically targeted to libre software development, many of the techniques and lessons learned can be generally applied to other types of software environments.},

This paper abandons any theoretical aspect of that question and focuses on the practical steps to follow when assembling component-based systems using also OSS components. All the activities normally performed when integrating COTS in a in-house built software are reviewed with the intention of underlining if the availability of the source code (and its possible exploitation) makes any difference. Moreover this article analyzes all the activities to perform when using OSS in a component-based system that are not necessary when using COTS. The purpose of this paper is to provide a guideline for the correct use of OSS within component-based systems, and not to answer whether OSS are considered or not COTS, leaving this task to the reader.},

abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has attracted enormous media and research attention since the term was coined in February 1998. The concept itself is founded on the paradoxical premise that software source code-the 'crown jewels' for many proprietary software companies-should be provided freely to anyone who wishes to see it. Given this fundamental initial paradox, it is perhaps hardly surprising that the OSS concept is characterised by contradictions, paradoxes and tensions throughout. In this paper we focus specifically on the following issues in relation to OSS: the cathedral v. bazaar development approach; collectivism v. individualism, the bitter strife within the OSS community itself (OSS v. OSS), and between OSS and the Free Software Foundation (OSS v. FSF); whether OSS represents a paradigm shift in the software industry; whether the software is truly open-the Berkeley Conundrum, as we have termed it here; whether OSS truly is high quality software; and whether OSS is a 'one size fits all,' representing the future model for all software development.},

Espe-cially interesting are information systems (IS) with a large number of users such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems where the license fees for proprietary products are often substantial. Until now however, there are few reports of public organizations actually adopting OSS ERP systems. This study aims to use case study research to increase the understanding of the public sectors' low adoption rate and the factors that impact the intentions to adopt an OSS ERP system. The results indicate that the system's functionality is essential; OSS ERP systems are not perceived as fully developed for large organizations such as municipalities. Neither is the OSS consultancy market considered mature enough. OSS ERP systems are therefore not seen as a realistic alternative to proprietary ERP systems in the studied organ-izations.},

abstract = {Most studies of software evolution have been performed on systems developed within a single company using traditional management techniques. With the widespread availability of several large software systems that have been developed using an open source development approach, we now have a chance to examine these systems in detail, and see if their evolutionary narratives are significantly different from commercially developed systems. This paper summarizes our preliminary investigations into the evolution of the best known open source system: the Linux operating system kernel. Because Linux is large (over two million lines of code in the most recent version) and because its development model is not as tightly planned and managed as most industrial software processes, we had expected to find that Linux was growing more slowly as it got bigger and more complex. Instead, we have found that Linux has been growing at a super-linear rate for several years. In this paper, we explore the evolution of the Linux kernel both at the system level and within the major subsystems, and we discuss why we think Linux continues to exhibit such strong growth.},

abstract = {Recent studies suggest that well-known OSS projects struggle to find the needed workforce to continue evolving---in part because external developers fail to overcome their first contribution barriers. In this paper, we investigate how and why quasi-contributors (external developers who did not succeed in getting their contributions accepted to an OSS project) fail. To achieve our goal, we collected data from 21 popular, non-trivial GitHub projects, identified quasi-contributors, and analyzed their pull-requests. In addition, we conducted surveys with quasi-contributors, and projects' integrators, to understand their perceptions about nonacceptance. We found 10,099 quasi-contributors --- about 70% of the total actual contributors --- that submitted 12,367 nonaccepted pull-requests. In five projects, we found more quasi-contributors than actual contributors. About one-third of the developers who took our survey disagreed with the nonacceptance, and around 30% declared the nonacceptance demotivated or prevented them from placing another pull-request. The main reasons for pull-request nonacceptance from the quasi-contributors' perspective were "superseded/duplicated pull-request" and "mismatch between developer's and team's vision/opinion." A manual analysis of a representative sample of 263 pull-requests corroborated with this finding. We also found reasons related to the relationship with the community and lack of experience or commitment from the quasi-contributors. This empirical study is particularly relevant to those interested in fostering developers' participation and retention in OSS communities.},

The key trend in the evolution of FLOSS quality assessment models is the movement from manual and descriptive to more automated and analytical models, and from the involvement of a few metrics to hundreds of metrics. Concerning the security measurements, they are much more sophisticated in QualOSS than in OpenBRR. Where OpenBRR have only three security metrics, QualOSS has nine security indicator with altogether 30-40 security metrics. This article shows how security are measured in the two assessment models, putting it into the overall context of the two approaches.},

abstract = {Open-source software projects are arguably the quintessential example of distributed software development, with their openness to a large pool of world-wide contributors and loose organizational structure. To cope with the demands this openness and fluidity place on the development process, open-source projects have evolved their own methods and organization. This paper looks at the ways some of the major and most successful open-source projects deal with the issue of coordination among their many contributors. Although each of the projects examined here developed some unique practices, there are also significant commonalities. The paper then goes on to indicate some of the problems caused by the existing practices, and put forward some possible approaches to OSS coordination that could make open-source software development more efficient.},

abstract = {As open source software products have evolved over time to satisfy a variety of demands from increasing users, they have become large and complex in general. Open source developers often face with challenges in fixing a considerable amount of bugs which are reported into a bug tracking system on a daily basis. As a result, the mean time to resolve bugs has been protracted in these days. In order to reduce the mean time to resolve bugs, managers/leaders of open source projects need to identify and understand the bottleneck of a bug modification process in their own projects. In this paper, we propose an analysis method which represents a bug modification process using a bug tracking system as a state transition diagram and then calculates the amount of time required to transit between states. We have conducted a case study using Firefox and Apache project data to confirm the usefulness of the analysis method. From the results of the case study, we have found that the method helped to reveal that both of the projects took a lot of time to verify results of bug modifications by developers.},

However, empirical studies on OSS development practices raise concerns on risky practices such as unclear requirement elicitation, ad hoc development process, little attention to quality assurance (QA) and documentation, and poor project management. Event then the ability to produce high quality products in such an environment may seem surprising and thus warrants an investigation on effective QA mechanism in OSS projects. This paper provides a preliminary exploration to improve our understanding of software quality practices in different types of OSS projects. We propose a framework of QA in an OSS project, elicit OSS stakeholder value propositions for QA, and derive performance indicators. For an initial empirical evaluation we applied these indicators to 5 releases of 2 large Apache projects (Tomcat and MyFaces) to analyze the extent to which QA aspects are commonly performed during development process.},

abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is increasingly becoming an alternative for proprietary software (PS), particularly in the government sector globally. The adoption and implementation of OSS by the government sector is cited as one of the enablers for the adoption of OSS by the private sector. It is also apparent that in the government sector internationally, OSS is seen as a viable technology for reasons such as lowering software costs, growing local software development industry, and bridging the digital divide. In South Africa (SA), an OSS policy that mandates OSS usage within ministries is in place. But according to various open source advocates, little has happened with regards to OSS implementation in the SA government. This paper reports on the current status of OSS usage within the SA government by surveying forty (40) national departments, targeting Information Technology (IT) directors and managers. The results indicate that OSS usage within the ministries is not yet extensive as required by the OSS policy. Various challenges and obstacles are hampering full OSS implementation within the ministries. The contribution of this research paper is an OSS expansion model, which is proposed as a possible solution to improve the current status of OSS usage within the SA government departments. The model proposed is in line with SA government's implementation strategy as outlined in the OSS policy.},

To understand how this "natural product evolution" happens, we have conducted a case study of four typical OSS projects. Unlike most previous studies on software evolution that focus on the evolution of the system per se, our study takes a broader perspective: It examines not only the evolution of OSS systems, but also the evolution of the associated OSS communities, as well as the relationship between the two types of evolution.Through the case study, we have found that while collaborative development within a community is the essential characteristic of OSS, different collaboration models exist, and that the difference in collaboration model results in different evolution patterns of OSS systems and communities. To treat such differences systematically, we propose to classify OSS into three types: Exploration-Oriented, Utility-Oriented, and Service-Oriented. Such a classification can provide guidance on the creation and maintenance of sustainable OSS development and communities.},

The problem of architectural drift is especially pronounced in open source systems, where many developers work in isolation on distinct features with little co-ordination. In this paper, we present our experiences with repairing the architectures of two large open source systems (the Linux operating system kernel and the VIM text editor) to aid program understanding. For both systems, we were successful in removing many structural anomalies from their architectures.},

In most cases, the adaptation of existing softwareproved to be by far more effective than implementingfrom scratch. Surprisingly, the effort needed to comprehendthe existing voluminous source codes repeatedly proved tobe less than expected.

Some factors that make software hard to maintain are geographically distributed development teams, frequent and rapid turnover of volunteers, absence of a formal means, and lack of documentation and explicit project planning. In this paper we propose remote and continuous analysis of open source software to monitor evolution using available resources such as CVS code repository, commitment log files and exchanged mail. Evolution monitoring relies on three principal services. The first service analyzes and monitors the increase in complexity and the decline in quality; the second supports distributed developers by sending them a feedback report after each contribution; the third allows developers to gain insight into the "big picture" of software by providing a dashboard of project evolution. Besides the description of provided services, the paper presents a prototype environment for continuous analysis of the evolution of GRASS, an open source software.},

abstract = {Our recent work has addressed how and why software systems evolve over time, with a particular emphasis on software architecture and open source software systems [2, 3, 6]. In this position paper, we present a short summary of two recent projects.First, we have performed a case study on the evolution of the Linux kernel [3], as well as some other open source software (OSS) systems. We have found that several OSS systems appear not to obey some of "Lehman's laws" of software evolution [5, 7], and that Linux in particular is continuing to grow at a geometric rate. Currently, we are working on a detailed study of the evolution of one of the subsystems of the Linux kernel: the SCSI drivers subsystem. We have found that cloning, which is usually considered to be an indicator of lazy development and poor process, is quite common and is even considered to be a useful practice.Second, we are developing a tool called Beagle to aid software maintainers in understanding how large systems have changed over time. Beagle integrates data from various static analysis and metrics tools and provides a query engine as well as navigable visualizations. Of particular note, Beagle aims to provide help in modelling long term evolution of systems that have undergone architectural and structural change.},

abstract = {Software engineering is a decision intensive discipline. Do we really understand all the factors that can influence those decisions? Can we build models that reveal hidden patterns in software resource management, in development processes, or in software artifacts themselves? How well do these models predict? Can they be used without requiring domain expert intervention? Do the models lead to better decisions? How are we to validate these models? Is the model creation process repeatable? Are there better, faster, cheaper ways to build models? How effective are these models for identifying causal relations? The PROMISE workshop seeks to address these questions and others, and to deliver to the software engineering community useful, usable, verifiable models, and public datasets for building and evaluating new models. At present, the Promise repository contains more than 30 datasets.},

LSST developers make decisions now, while facing uncertainties about its period of operations (2022--2032). Uncertainties we identify include topics researchers will seek to address, tools and expertise, and availability of other infrastructures to exploit LSST observations. LSST is using an open source approach to developing and releasing its data management software. We evaluate benefits and burdens of this approach as a strategy for addressing uncertainty. Benefits include: enabling software to adapt to researchers' changing needs; embedding LSST standards and tools in community practices; and promoting interoperability with other infrastructures. Burdens include: open source community management; documentation requirements; and trade-offs between software speed and accessibility.},

abstract = {An investigation was conducted to study shared knowledge construction process in an Open-Source Software Development (OSSD) community. Using a qualitative study approach, we examined the resources, tools, and activities in the Gallery community to create a rich description of the interrelationships among people, activities, and media. Of particular interest was how the individuals contributed to the building of a shared knowledge base through collaborative problem-solving and decision-making processes, mediated with the OSSD environment. The study indicated that the collaboration process was symbolized by multiple rounds of discussions, which were means to pool individuals' expertise and experiences to obtain quality problem-solving and decision-making outcomes. The study also revealed that the OSSD environment mediated the collaborative efforts through virtual collaboration space, visual organization, and communication tools. The findings have important implications for designing effective instruction specifically for computing disciplines in promoting students' collaborative problem solving and decision making.},

The difference between free software and open source ideology may influence founders, resulting in different types of companies being created. Specifically, the relationship between free/libre software ideology and social entrepreneurships is investigated. This paper presents seven case studies of businesses, five of which were founded by people who identify with the free/libre software movement. The result is a theory that small businesses founded by free/libre software advocates have three characteristics of social entrepreneurships. First, social benefit is prioritized over wealth creation. Second, the business's social mission is not incidental but is furthered through its for-profit activities, rather than supported by the company's profits. Third, the company's success is defined in part by the success of its social mission. Free/libre software entrepreneurs who recognize their activities as social entrepreneurships can benefit from the existing literature on the unique challenges faced by socially-oriented businesses.},

A lot of companies, governments, and universities are now using OSS technologies because of the advantages they bring. However, the use of an OSS is actually hard for its beginners, because many OSSes have few good manuals, where they have usually been developed by volunteers. Besides, the installation of an OSS package sometimes requires installations of multiple OSS packages to be integrated together. In this paper, we propose a method of automatically generating an installation manual of an OSS package, including the one requiring the integration of multiple OSS packages. Then, we implement the proposed method for evaluations. Our experimental results in installations of OSS packages including the one requiring the integration of four packages by generated manuals verify the effectiveness of our method.},

Moving from mainly techni cal issues in procurement to corporate IS governance presents OSS with new challenges beyond outlining a business case for a particular OSS application. We draw parallels to the business case for commercial software products (COTS). Compared with COTS, OSS products seem to have several advantages, but based on existing literature and a case study, we develop and discuss the hypothesis that a major barrier may be the “customer's” uncertainty and unfamiliarity with OSS vendor relationships. We find that corporate governance and architecture needs to be accounted for in both COTS and OSS. This paper should be seen as a first step researching the fit between procurement and delivery models for OSS.},

These conflicts may induce developer turnover intention towards the organization and the OSS community. This research seeks to identify identification-related determinants that drive turnover intention by surveying Linux kernel developers (N=321). This study finds, among others, that perceived external reputation of the employing organization reduces turnover intention towards the company while perceived own reputation dampens turnover intention directed towards the OSS community.},

The positive economical results of the project made software reuse a common practice at Orbotech. Further experimentation of reusing Open Source Software (OSS) demonstrated the high potential of that approach, when carefully integrated with the standard organizational development process. The conclusions from Orbotech experience are that when carefully planned and implemented, software reuse provides the anticipated benefits of cost reduction, improved quality and shorter Time-to-Market. The reuse of OSS may provide even higher benefits than conventional software reuse. Nevertheless, as in many cases before, implementation of software reuse requires management support and commitment, as well as acceptance by the developers themselves. As such, software reuse implementation proves to be a complex task that needs to be tailored specifically to the implementing organization.},

We analyze the trade-off between early and late release based on a two-sided network externality that explores how the release of free information benefits those who develop as well as those who consume. We also introduce a framing innovation that places existing licenses in a space that suggests where unexplored socially optimal licenses might exist.},

By focusing on more projects that perhaps do not gain the immediate attention of researchers, we hope to broaden our knowledge of the rich ecosystems within FLOSS.Specifically, the goal of the FLOSS-3 workshop (8th in a series at ICSE) is to bring together academic researchers, industry members, and FLOSS developers for the purpose of discussing topics including analyzing "competing" projects within FLOSS that share the same domain, performing data collection and analysis among many FLOSS projects, examining governance models within FLOSS projects, identifying licensing paradigms of FLOSS projects, discussing the interplay of corporate involvement within FLOSS projects, social and technical interactions between FLOSS projects, and dependency analysis and reuse between FLOSS projects.We believe that this workshop will also serve as a common bridge between the ACM/IEEE (ICSE) and (IFIP) OSS research communities, thereby providing a window for others in the Software Engineering community to interact with and learn more about the advances of research into FLOSS development and communities.},

This paper examines the question, "how does one empirically distinguish the core?" Being able to identify the core members of a FLOSS development project is important because many of the processes necessary for successful projects likely involve core members differently than peripheral members, so analyses that mix the two groups will likely yield invalid results. We compare 3 analysis approaches to identify the core: the named list of developers, a Bradford's law analysis that takes as the core the most frequent contributors and a social network analysis of the interaction pattern that identifies the core in a core-and-periphery structure. We apply these measures to the interactions around bug fixing for 116 SourceForge projects. The 3 techniques identify different individuals as core members; examination of which individuals are identified leads to suggestions for refining the measures. All 3 measures though suggest that the core of FLOSS projects is a small fraction of the total number of contributors.},

Our theory is grounded in the learning theory of Legitimate Peripheral Participation, and is supported by analyzing the social structure of OSS communities and the co-evolution between OSS systems and communities. We also discuss practical implications of our theory for creating and maintaining sustainable OSS communities as well as for software engineering research and education.},

abstract = {Pull requests are a method to facilitate review and management of contribution in distributed software development. Software developers author commits, and present them in a pull request to be inspected by maintainers and reviewers. The success and sustainability of communities depends on ongoing contributions, but rejections decrease motivation of contributors. We carried out a a qualitative study to understand the mechanisms of evaluating PRs in open source software (FOSS) communities from developers and maintainers perspective. We interviewed 30 participants from five different FOSS communities. The data shows that acceptance of contributions depends not only on technical criteria, but also significantly on social and strategic aspects. This paper identifies three PR governance styles found in the studied communities: (1) protective, (2) equitable and (3) lenient. Each one of these styles has its particularities. While the protective style values trustworthiness and reliability of the contributor, the lenient style believes in creating a positive and welcoming environment where contributors are mentored to evolve contributions until they meet the community standards. Despite the differences, these governance styles have a commonality, they all safeguard the quality of the software.},

abstract = {Despite the availability of source code, deploying open source software (OSS) in an enterprise environment requires expertise. Recent surveys show that the skills of IT staff in an organization are one of the key factors in OSS adoption decisions. This paper develops a model where users choosing between proprietary software and OSS are heterogeneous in their expertise. The paper finds that as users become more skilled in OSS, the price of proprietary software will decline. Second, the equilibrium market structure is influenced by both users' expertise and network effects. It is not surprising that proprietary software can drive OSS out of the market in presence of network effect, but counter-intuitively, this happens when users are highly skilled in OSS. Third, in presence of network effect, OSS may survive in the market only when it is customizable by skilled users and therefore provides significant higher benefits to users than proprietary software.},

It is a typical case of an Independent Software Vendor (ISV) building application software on top of open source platform software. In the spirit of the open source movement, the extensions or modifications to the open source components could be contributed back to the community. However, in this paper we discuss several issues that companies face in such a situation. They extend far beyond the obvious decision whether to keep the developed code proprietary, and should not be neglected. It is argued that a closer collaboration between open source projects and independent software vendors would be beneficial to all.},

This study aims to provide better understanding about "breaking the mirror" in community-based OSS production in which there is no significant corporate participation. We propose it is not the mirroring hypothesis that is broken, but the manner in which we conceptualize and measure organizational configurations in OSS production.},

In order to consistently manage and access various types of product-related history information throughout the supply chain, it is necessary to develop information networks and databases for sharing that information between firms, and EDI systems play a central role in that context. This paper proposes a distributed traceability system based on open source software which is particularly suitable for small and medium enterprises. To do this, the paper first conducts an exploratory analysis of factors involved in the adoption of traceability systems by small and medium enterprises, based on a review of previous research on traceability and questionnaire survey data. Next, it examines the current situation and problems of RF tags, 2D barcodes and EDI systems, and their linkage with in-house backend systems. Based on the above analysis, the paper proposes a model of a traceability system using open source software which is suitable for small and medium enterprises, and discusses the model's practical implications.},

If the application software for the Web server were opened, this security hole would be quickly fixed because the problem is very simple and the way to fix is quite easy. Then we show several reports on Linux operating system of using governmental computer network infrastructures. We will see a lot of countries are considering using Linux and its application software as their infrastructures, because of the national securities and the deployment costs AIST is now planning to use Linux office applications in order to assess the feasibility of using open source software as an important infrastructure.},

Refactoring refers to the restructuring of software according to specific mechanics and principles. In this paper, we describe a tool that allows refactoring data across multiple versions of seven open-source software systems to be collected. The tool automates the identification of refactorings as program transformations between consecutive software releases. The same tool thus allowed an empirical analysis of software development across versions from the perspective of those transformations. We describe results for the systems analysed and point to key conclusions from our analysis. In particular, we investigate a problematic empirical question as to whether certain refactorings are related, i.e., they cannot be undertaken in isolation without other refactorings being undertaken in parallel. In this context, we focus specifically on the four most common refactorings identified by the tool from three of the open-source systems and use a dependency graph to inform conclusions about the empirical data extracted by the tool. An interesting result relating to some common refactorings is described.},

abstract = {This paper focuses on peer review as a quality management technique used in open-source software (OSS) development and the similarities and differences with those of traditional development. The organizational commitment of OSS developers to quality is also explored. A comprehensive web-based questionnaire was completed by OSS and traditional developers. It was found that peer review is generally considered very useful for detecting both defects and flaws in code, as well as being important in contributing to the quality of the software. It is suggested that OSS developers commit to quality through internalization - adopting the ideas as their own, as the majority of the developers indicated that they would perform peer reviews without management direction. Encouragement to perform peer reviews and an organizational culture of peer review make it more likely for the developers to perform peer review under their own initiative, but neither are essential.},

abstract = {Open source software systems are important components of many business software applications. Field defect predictions for open source software systems may allow organizations to make informed decisions regarding open source software components. In this paper, we remotely measure and analyze predictors (metrics available before release) mined from established data sources (the code repository and the request tracking system) as well as a novel source of data (mailing list archives) for nine releases of OpenBSD. First, we attempt to predict field defects by extending a software reliability model fitted to development defects. We find this approach to be infeasible, which motivates examining metrics-based field defect prediction. Then, we evaluate 139 predictors using established statistical methods: Kendall\'{y}s rank correlation, Pearson\'{y}s rank correlation, and forward AIC model selection. The metrics we collect include product metrics, development metrics, deployment and usage metrics, and software and hardware configurations metrics. We find the number of messages to the technical discussion mailing list during the development period (a deployment and usage metric captured from mailing list archives) to be the best predictor of field defects. Our work identifies predictors of field defects in commonly available data sources for open source software systems and is a step towards metricsbased field defect prediction for quantitatively-based decision making regarding open source software components.},

abstract = {Involving students from a wide range of backgrounds in Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) project communities gets them a hands-on, portfolio-building experience in the creation of a real-world project while simultaneously building their institution's public profile. The Teaching Open Source (http://teachingopensource.org) community is an emergent (3 year old) group working on scaffolding to bridge the cultural differences between academic and FOSS communities of practice. Join us to share questions, challenges, and triumphs of incorporating FOSS participation into existing and new curricula as well support resources for doing so. Alumni and current members of the POSSE (Professors' Open Source Summer Experience, http://communityleadershipteam.org/posse) will attend in mentorship roles. Faculty attendance at the SIGCSE 2010 BoF on Teaching Open Source (TOS) indicates that student involvement in FOSS projects is a teaching and learning approach of interest for many faculty members. The transparency of both artifacts and process make FOSS an attractive real-world experience that enhances peer learning and intrinsic motivation for a diversity of courses, from introductory, interdisciplinary, and non-major classes to software engineering core offerings and senior capstones. However, such student participation involves a significant learning curve and effort on the part of the faculty member, and support structures for faculty are still maturing. 2011-2012 marks the 3rd academic year the TOS community has explored this realm together, and the past year has seen the emergence of more best practices, support resources, and curricular material. Community members are starting to design cross-institutional research on the impact of FOSS participation on students. BoF attendees will be encouraged to ask questions, network, and take advantage of the TOS community as a support structure for their own courses and projects.The audience is expected to consist of instructors who 1) are interested in learning how to get started in involving students in FOSS projects; or 2) have involved students in FOSS projects and are looking for better ways to facilitate student learning within FOSS projects.},

abstract = {This paper tests the hypothesis that generic recovery techniques, such as process pairs, can survive most application faults without using application-specific information. We examine in detail the faults that occur in three, large, open-source applications: the Apache web server, the GNOME desktop environment, and the MySQL database. Using information contained in the bug reports and source code, we classify faults based on how they depend on the operating environment. We find that 72-87% of the faults are independent of the operating environment and are hence deterministic (non-transient). Recovering from the failures caused by these faults requires the use of application-specific knowledge. Half of the remaining faults depend on a condition in the operating environment that is likely to persist on retry, and the failures caused by these faults are likely to require application-specific recovery. Unfortunately, only 5-14% of the faults were triggered by transient conditions, such as timing and synchronization that naturally fix them during recovery. Our results indicate that classical application-generic recovery techniques, such as process pairs, will not be sufficient to enable applications to survive most failures caused by application faults.},

Of many related phenomena, open source software (OSS) development has been touted as one of the leading examples that speak to the potential of collective intelligence. Recently, the advent of novel open collaboration platforms for open source software development, such as Github, has prompted researchers to examine the impact of increased work transparency induced by the introduction of social features on voluntary self-organization and allocation of resources to projects. We present both qualitative and quantitative analyses from which we derive some initial propositions regarding the impact of transparency on voluntary self-organization processes and decision mechanisms.},

This paper reports on our efforts to mitigate these challenges through the creation and use of Education-Oriented H/FOSS (Humanitarian FOSS or FOSS) projects - authentic open source projects consciously designed and managed to facilitate student and faculty engagement. We describe four active Education-Oriented H/FOSS projects and introduce a framework for illustrating different models of H/FOSS engagement. The framework is used to structure a discussion of the considerations and trade-offs of different engagement models, and highlights particular models that have been used to engage students and faculty in our four Education-Oriented H/FOSS projects. The framework positions projects along dimensions of professor involvement, responsibility for project hosting/management, mode of student knowledge and skill acquisition, and the curricular engagement goals. In doing so it broadly captures trade-offs that exist between the level of institutional resources used and the level of student independence required. It is anticipated this framework and the discussion that it organizes will be useful to faculty a) in evaluating the appropriateness of particular H/FOSS projects for use in their courses and curriculum and b) as guidance to those considering the creation of new Education-Oriented H/FOSS projects.},

Particularly e-learning platforms permit the any time and any place distribution of interactive multimedia learning materials. There are commercial tools available to author this kind of content, usually based on proprietary formats. This option has some drawbacks like license cost and software company dependency. To use open data standards and free software is an alternative without these inconveniences but available authoring tools are commonly less productive. This shortcoming is certainly important to non technical authors and it could be solved by open source collaboration. With this work we try to contribute to this endeavor in the case of synchronized multimedia presentations. Our proposal is based on SMIL as composition language particularly we reuse and customize the SMIL technical presentation template used in INRIA. We also propose a set of free tools to produce presentation content focusing on RealPlayer as delivery client.},

Conflict arises over the use of a non-free tool to create GNUe graphic, and over the use of a non-free tool for GNUe documentation. The GNUe developers resolve the conflict using internet relay chat (IRC), threaded email discussions, and community digests. We characterize the GNUe developers as an occupational subculture within the occupational community of free/open source software (F/OSS) developers and show how the beliefs in free software and freedom of choice, and values in cooperative work and community assist GNUe contributors in mitigating and resolving conflict. In addition, we show how, despite fluctuating boundaries of membership in a virtual organization, daily discussions on the GNUe IRC serve to build and perpetuate the global community of GNUe contributors as well as F/OSS developers in general.},

abstract = {Background: Several factors may impact the process of software maintenance and evolution of free software projects, including structural complexity and lack of control over its contributors. Structural complexity, an architectural concern, makes software projects more difficult to understand, and consequently more difficult to maintain and evolve. The contributors in a free software project exhibit different levels of participation in the project, and can be categorized as core and peripheral developers. Research aim: This research aims at characterising the changes made to the source code of 7 web server projects written in C with respect to the amount of structural complexity added or removed and the developer level of participation. Method: We performed a observational study with historical data collected from the version control repositories of those projects, recording structural complexity information for each change as well as identifying each change as performed by a core or a peripheral developer. Results and conclusions: We have found that core developers introduce less structural complexity than peripheral developers in general, and that in the case of complexity-reducing activities, core developers remove more structural complexity than peripheral developers. These results demonstrate the importance of having a stable and healthy core team to the sustainability of free software projects.},

This quality and suitability is achieved through an elaborate peer-review process performed by a large community of users, who act as co-developers to identify and correct software defects and add features. Although this process is crucial to the success of free software projects, there is more to the free software development than the creation of a 'bazaar'. In this paper we draw on existing free software projects to define a lifecycle model for free software. This paper then explores each phase of the lifecycle model and agrees that, while the bazaar phase attracts the most attention, it is the initial modular design that accommodates diverse interventions. Moreover, it is the period of transition from the initial group to the larger community based development that is crucial in determining whether a free software project will succeed or fail.},

Our methods are based on complex network and time-series analysis. We define the notion of a working rhythm as the average time spent on a commit task and we study the correlation between working rhythm and communication frequency. We build communication networks for code developers, and find that the developers with higher social status, represented by the nodes with larger number of outgoing or incoming links, always have faster working rhythms and thus contribute more per unit time to the projects. We also study the dependency between work (committing) and talk (communication) activities, in particular the effect of their interleaving. We introduce multi-activity time-series and quantitative measures based on activity latencies to evaluate this dependency. Comparison of simulated time-series with the real ones suggests that when work and talk activities are in proximity they may accelerate each other in OSS systems. These findings suggest that frequent communication before and after committing activities is essential for effective software development in distributed systems.},

abstract = {A significant number of Free Software projects has been widely used and considered successful. However, there is an even larger number of them that cannot overcome the initial step towards building an active community of users and developers. In this study, we investigated whether there are relationships between source code metrics and attractiveness, i.e., the ability of a project to attract users and developers. To verify these relationships, we analyzed 6,773 Free Software projects from the SourceForge.net repository. The results indicated that attractiveness is indeed correlated to some source code metrics. This suggests that measurable attributes of the project source code somehow affect the decision to contribute and adopt a Free Software project. The findings described in this study show that it is relevant for project leaders to monitor source code quality, most specifically a few objective metrics, since these can have a positive influence in their chances of forming a community of contributors and users around the software, enabling further enhancement in its quality.},

abstract = {Over the last 20 years, many free/libre and open source software (FLOSS) packages have been developed for library and information management (LIM) applications. These projects usually involve a distributed community of users and developers who jointly determine the software's future development. This paper presents the results of a web-based survey that examined which factors affect participant satisfaction with FLOSS projects. A total of 183 usable responses were received from people in 33 countries, representing over 30 different LIM FLOSS projects. Stepwise hierarchical regression showed that five factors (perceived project openness, perceived developer communication quality, perceived complexity, extent of participation, and perceived product openness) accounted for 44% of the variance in satisfaction. Community-oriented characteristics had the most influence, suggesting that in a FLOSS context, project participants need to focus on community development and support to increase overall satisfaction with the project.},

Yet formal governance systems are being increasingly adopted among communities, particularly through non-profit project-sponsoring foundations. Our study looks at the Apache Software Foundation Incubator program and 208 of the projects it has supported. We assemble a scalable, semantic pipeline to discover and analyze the governance behavior of projects from their mailing lists. We then investigate the relationship of such behavior to what the formal policies prescribe, through their own governance priorities and how their members internalize them. Our findings indicate that a greater amount of policy over a governed topic doesn’t elicit more governed activity on that topic, but does predict greater internalization by community members. Moreover, alignment of community operations with foundation governance, be it dedicating their governance focus or adopting policy along topics seeing greater policy-making, has limited association with project outcomes.},

A typical example is that, if we modify a code fragment that has been duplicated to other code fragments, it is necessary to consider whether the other code fragments have to be modified simultaneously or not. In this research, in order to investigate how much the presence of duplicate code is related to software evolution, we defined a new indicator, modification frequency. The indicator is a quantitative measure, and it allows us to objectively compare the maintainability of duplicate code and non-duplicate code. We conducted an experiment on 15 open source software systems, and the result showed that the presence of duplicate code does not have a negative impact on software evolution.},

We focus on the user-oriented and the developer-oriented mailing-lists of the Python project.Findings/Design -- We find that key-participants, the cross-participants, foster the design process and act as boundary spanners between the users and the developers' communities.Research limitations/Implications -- These findings can be reinforced developing software to automate the structural analysis of discussions and actions to the code and documentation. Further analyses, supported by these tools, will be necessary to generalise our results.Originality/Value -- The analysis of participation among the three interaction spaces of OSS design (discussion, documentation and implementation) is the main originality of this work compared to other OSS research that mainly analyse one or two spaces.Take away message -- Beside the idealistic picture that users may intervene freely in the process, OSS design is boost and framed by some key-participants and specific rules and there can be barriers to users' participation.},

abstract = {Over the last decades, the Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) phenomenon has been a topic of study and a source of real-life artifacts for software engineering research. A FLOSS project usually has a community around its project, organically producing informative resources to describe how, when, and why a particular change occurred in the source code or the development flow. Therefore, when studying this kind of project, collecting and analyzing texts and artifacts can promote a more comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon and the variety of organizational settings. However, despite the importance of examining Grey Literature (GL), such as technical reports, white papers, magazines, and blog posts for studying FLOSS projects, the GL Review is still an emerging technique in software engineering studies, lacking a well-established investigative methodology. To mitigate this gap, we present and discuss challenges and adaptations for the planning and execution of GL reviews in the FLOSS scenario. We provide a set of guidelines and lessons learned for further research, using, as an example, a review we are conducting on the Linux kernel development model.},

However, this appears to be a necessary, but not a sufficient condition, as the well-being of FLOSS communities also relies on members behaving as "good citizens," to nurture and protect the community. This paper investigates the notion of FLOSS community citizenship behaviors in light of the organizational citizenship behaviors literature. Relying on 11 semi-structured interviews with FLOSS project leaders and community managers, the papers identifies key instances of citizenship behaviors along two dimensions: CCB-I (community citizenship behaviors oriented towards the benefits of other individuals), and CCB-P (community citizenship behaviors oriented towards the benefits of the project and its community).},

Different metrics were defined, addressing different OSS properties: the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) addresses the cost of acquiring, adapting and operating OSS; the Total Account Ownership (TAO) represents the degree of freedom of the user with respect to the technology provider; indexes like the Open Business Quality Rating (Open BQR) assess the quality of the software with respect to the user's needs. However, none of the proposed methods and models addresses all the aspects of OSS in a balanced and complete way. For this purpose, the paper explores the possibility of adapting the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) technique to OSS. A preliminary definition of the BSC for OSS is given and discussed.},

Using the concept of episodic volunteering (EV) from the general volunteering literature, we derive a model consisting of five key constructs that we hypothesize affect episodic volunteers' retention in FLOSS communities. To evaluate the model we conducted a survey with over 100 FLOSS episodic volunteers. We observe that three of our model constructs (social norms, satisfaction and community commitment) are all positively associated with volunteers' intention to remain, while the two other constructs (psychological sense of community and contributor benefit motivations) are not. Furthermore, exploratory clustering on unobserved heterogeneity suggests that there are four distinct categories of volunteers: satisfied, classic, social and obligated. Based on our findings, we offer suggestions for projects to incorporate and manage episodic volunteers, so as to better leverage this type of contributors and potentially improve projects' sustainability.},

The model was evaluated by comparing the simulated results against four measures of software evolution (system size, proportion of highly complex modules, level of complexity control work, and distribution of changes) for four large OSS systems. The simulated results resembled all the observed data, including alternating periods of growth and stagnation. The fidelity of the model suggests that the factors included here have significant effects on the evolution of OSS systems.},

abstract = {We contend that overcoming the lack of usability expertise within the open source software community will further its competitiveness. Motivated by the unique user-driven model, we propose an exploratory learning method for assisting non-expert users in contributing to open source usability inspection. This method emphasizes providing usability knowledge during usability inspection and explores the impact of the "fading-out/phasing-in" method on the inspection effectiveness. The results of a pilot study we conducted through a Web-based inspection system are provided.},

abstract = {Today, different actors, such as developers, supporters, companies or public entities, contribute in different ways to non-profit open source software projects. The majority of them is contributing for individual and personal reasons, aiming to create (intangible) value that is important to themselves. Besides that, users are today often not directly involved in the development process. This results in the need to have a software and management structure that actively aligns these different actors, pays respect to their needs, and involves them in the software creation process. We present the case of Catrobat and how different influences, e.g., by contributors, users, or stakeholders, affect the project and its development. We outline the challenges that occur in practice when it comes to an open software project situated in a complex ecosystem of different actors and highlight the requirements on such a project and how they are encountered in the presented case.},

abstract = {Context: Software Engineering (SE) is a key topic in undergraduate computing-related courses that provides the basic knowledge and skills necessary for professional practice in the software industry. Teaching SE principles, concepts and practices and relating them to real-world scenarios are challenging tasks, and the adoption of Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects can help to face these challenges. On the other hand, using FLOSS projects as a didactic resource may introduce additional challenges to professors that are not familiar with the FLOSS ecosystem. Objective: This research aims to identify and map the profiles of professors of SE courses in Brazil, as well as to present the pedagogical practices used in the experience with FLOSS projects in Software Engineering Education (SEE). Method: We performed a survey with higher education professors in Brazil, used K-modes algorithm to identify clusters and Decision Tree algorithm to identify characteristics that determine the use of FLOSS projects in a sample of professors who had not used this approach in the classroom. Results: The results of the research revealed characteristics of professors who use, or not, FLOSS projects in SEE, of professors grouped in the two clusters generated by the application of the K-modes algorithm, of professors grouped by the application of the Decision Tree algorithm, in addition to presenting similar characteristics the pedagogical practices evidenced by each group of SE professors.},

This achievement is particularly impressive as open-source programmers rarely meet. They rely heavily on electronic media, which preclude the benefits of face-to-face contact that programmers enjoy within firms. In this paper, we describe findings that address this paradox based on observation, interviews and quantitative analyses of two open-source projects. The findings suggest that spontaneous work coordinated afterward is effective, rational organizational culture helps achieve agreement among members and communications media moderately support spontaneous work. These findings can imply a new model of dispersed collaboration.},

abstract = {Engaging contributors in a Free Open Source Software (FOSS) project can be challenging. Finding an appropriate task to start with is a common entrance barrier for newcomers. Poor code quality contributes to difficulties in the onboarding process and limits contributor satisfaction in general. In turn, dissatisfied developers tend to exacerbate problems with system integrity. Poorly designed systems are difficult to maintain and extend. Users can often directly experience these issues as instabilities in system behavior. Thus code quality is a key issue for users and contributors in FOSS. We present a case study on the interactions between code quality and contributor experience in the real-world FOSS project Catrobat. We describe the implications of a refactoring process in terms of code metrics and benefits for developers and users.},

abstract = {As a software evolves its code requires constant updating. In this sense, refactoring edits aim at improving structural aspects of a code without changing its external behavior. However, studies show that developers tend to combine in a single commit refactorings and behavior-changing edits (extra edits) - floss-refactoring. Floss-refactorings can be error-prone and require careful handling. However, little has been done to understand how refactorings and extra edits relate in practice. In this work, we propose a strategy for extracting floss-refactoring data. Moreover, we mine code repositories of 16 open-source projects and analyse commits with floss refactoring related to Extract Method. Our results show that developers often combine Extract Method with inner method extra edits (e.g., statement insert), with an expected increase of 8-16% of extra edits by each Extract Method. Moreover, some statements are more likely to be changed depending on the extra edit performed.},

However, the research on the relationship between network structure and developers’ contribution is still insufficient. This paper investigates developer collaboration networks in three OSS communities by data analytics. The results indicate that real networks are mainly characterized by the modular small-world structure, which is inherently correlated with the sub-project participation of developers. Most module members are single-dimensional developers whose coding-collaboration focuses on a small number of sub-projects (called the main dimension of the module), while a small proportion of module members are multi-dimensional developers who conduct coding-collaboration in the main dimension of different modules. These results may deepen our understandings of the collaborative pattern of OSS communities, and also have some reference value for the studies of open collaborative innovation in large-scale crowds.},

The paper describes solutions adopted in the context of developing a website for a research institute: the key requirements specifically regard the necessity of keeping the roles of different actors in the full lifecycle of the content management system separate and secure. The approach makes use of Plone open source software that focuses on the content and allows for customizing roles, workflows and security in the publishing process.},

abstract = {FAQ chatbots possess the capability to provide answers to frequently asked questions of a particular service, platform, or system. Currently, FAQ chatbot is the most popular domain of use of dialog assistants. However, developing a chatbot project requires a full-stack team formed by numerous specialists, such as dialog designer, data scientist, software engineer, DevOps, business strategist and experts from the domain, which can be both time and resources consuming. Language processing can be particularly challenging in languages other than English due to the scarcity of training datasets.Most of the requirements of FAQ chatbots are similar, domain-specific, and projects could profit from Open Source Software (OSS) reuse. In this paper, we examine how OSS FAQ chatbot projects can benefit from reuse at the project level (black-box reuse). We present an experience report of a FLOSS FAQ chatbot project developed in Portuguese to an e-government service in Brazil. It comprises of the chatbot distribution service, as well as for analytics tool integrated and deployed on-premises. We identified assets that could be reused as a black-box and the assets that should be customized for a particular application. We categorized these assets in architecture, corpus, dialog flows, machine learning models, and documentation. This paper discusses how automation, pre-configuration, and templates can aid newcomers to develop chatbots in Portuguese without the need for specialized skills required from tools in chatbot architecture. Our main contribution is to highlight the issues non-English FAQ chatbots projects will likely face and the assets that can be reused. It allows non-chatbot experts to develop a quality-assured OSS FAQ chatbot in a shorter project cycle.},

abstract = {Because of the increasing acceptance and possibly expanding market of free/libre open source software (FLOSS), the spectrum and scale of companies that participate in FLOSS development have substantially expanded in recent years. Companies get involved in FLOSS projects to acquire user innovations [3, 12], to reduce costs [8, 11], to make money on complementary services [13], etc. Such intense involvement may change the nature of FLOSS development and pose critical challenges for the sustainability of the projects. For example, it has been found that a company's full control and intense involvement is associated with a decrease of volunteer inflow [13]. Sometimes a project may fail after one company pulls resources from the project [13]. This raises concerns about the domination of one company in a project. In large projects like OpenStack, there are often hundreds of companies involved in contributing code. Despite substantial researches on commercial participation, whether or not one company dominates a project and the impact of such domination has never been explicitly explored. We investigate four main projects of OpenStack, a large ecosystem that has had a tremendous impact on computing and society, to answer the following research questions: Does one company dominate the project's development (RQ1)? If the answer to RQ1 is yes, does the domination affect the community (RQ2)?},

I contribute to prior work on learning within FLOSS and also to the learning sciences by illustrating how FLOSS supports lifelong learning and working by providing an ecosystem that allows participants to grow their knowledge of both technical and nontechnical skills over time through their association with different projects and people. I trace the learning trajectories of two participants from high school until they enter the professional workforce and beyond. I argue that FLOSS participation represents an ideal networked form of learning as it provides both socio-cognitive support for short term activities and also socio-temporal support for long term participation and learning. It is a unique form of apprenticeship that exists concurrently with formal educational experiences but unlike traditional apprenticeship experiences it succeeds by spanning different spatialities - place/space and technology mix -and temporal scales.},

Aims: In this paper, we examine the extent to which these problems still exist. We also study male and female contributors' perceptions of other contributors. Method: We surveyed participants from 15 FLOSS projects, asking a series of open-ended, closed-ended, and behavioral scale questions to gather information about the issue of gender in FLOSS projects. Results: Though many of those we surveyed expressed a positive sentiment towards females who participate in FLOSS projects, some were still strongly against their inclusion. Often, the respondents who were against inclusiveness also believed their own sentiments were the prevailing belief in the community, contrary to our findings. Others did not see the purpose of attempting to be inclusive, expressing the sentiment that a discussion of gender has no place in FLOSS. Conclusions: FLOSS projects have started to move forwards in terms of gender acceptance. However, there is still a need for more progress in the inclusion of gender-diverse contributors.},

The tools to be developed should also take into account the needs and knowledge of users, ranging from a simple graphical application to a complete programming framework. Finally, the data sets to process may be large. In this paper, we expose a set of features that a Document Image Analysis framework should provide to handle the previous issues. In particular, a good strategy to address both flexibility and efficiency issues is the Generic Programming (GP) paradigm. These ideas are implemented as an open source module, SCRIBO, built on top of Olena, a generic and efficient image processing platform. Our solution features services such as preprocessing filters, text detection, page segmentation and document reconstruction (as XML, PDF or HTML documents). This framework, composed of reusable software components, can be used to create full-fledged graphical applications, small utilities, or processing chains to be integrated into third-party projects.},

abstract = {Context: Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects have been used in Software Engineering Education (SEE) to address the need for more realistic settings that reduce the gap between software engineering (SE) courses and industry needs. A systematic mapping study (SMS) performed in 2013 structured the research area on the use of FLOSS projects in SEE. Objective: Update the 2013 SMS with studies published in the last five years, classifying and summarizing them to discuss trends and identify research gaps in the context of the use of FLOSS projects in SEE. Method: We retrieved and analyzed a set of 4132 papers published from 2013 to 2017, from which 33 papers were selected and classified. We analyzed the new results and compared them with those from the previous SMS to confirm or discover trends. Results: The updated mapping summarizes the studies published in the last five years, most of them in conferences. Our analysis confirmed trends previously observed for three facets (SE area, curriculum choice and assessment type) and discovered new trends for other facets. Conclusion: Studies report the use of FLOSS projects in regular, comprehensive SE courses. The prevalence of experience reports over solution proposals in the last five years may indicate that researchers are more concerned with the use and evaluation of existing proposals, although there are still opportunities for more empirical work based on sound educational research methods.},

abstract = {The development of open source software (OSS) is a broad field which requires diverse skill sets. For example, maintainers help lead the project and promote its longevity, technical writers assist with documentation, bug reporters identify defects in software, and developers program the software.  
However, it is unknown which skills are used in OSS development as well as OSS contributors' general attitudes towards skills in OSS. In this paper, we address this gap by administering a survey to a diverse set of 455 OSS contributors. Guided by these responses as well as prior literature on software development expertise and social factors of OSS, we develop a model of skills in OSS that considers the many contexts OSS contributors work in. This model has 45 skills in the following 9 categories: technical skills, working styles, problem solving, contribution types, project-specific skills, interpersonal skills, external relations, management, and characteristics. Through a mix of qualitative and quantitative analyses, we find that OSS contributors are actively motivated to improve skills and perceive many benefits in sharing their skills with others. We then use this analysis to derive a set of design implications and best practices for those who incorporate skills into OSS tools and platforms, such as GitHub.},

abstract = {Since the 80's, education (training, education and training per se) in the legislative context meant the employee training standards and rules arising from the specific laws of "home" legislation. Analogous to the process of structural changes in economy and politics in the late 80's, Brazil also promoted the modernization of their legislative houses. Through funding from the Interamerican Development Bank, it was possible to promote the program InterLegis. The objective of this program was the modernization and integration of the Legislature in its federal, state and municipal levels and promoting greater transparency and interaction with society that Power. Soon became apparent that the model open, collaborative and open management of knowledge and information InterLegis was an innovative model, but above all, there were still limits and challenges to the Legislature and can education and development of officials and parliamentarians of the Legislative Houses. This article will seek to identify the limits and challenges of improving this innovative model of using free software and web-based collaborative environment and information and communication technologies. Methodologically this article is structured from a previous exploratory research, checking conditions and models of InterLegis, besides the participation of the authors within the mailing lists and use of information packets and applications available on the web environment of the program. It was performed an exploratory research the topic of collaborative scientific production, electronic government and electronic governance and the use of free software by government, where they found several articles and texts. As a further step was made a theoretical framework on these themes that helped formulate the analysis of the limits and challenges of the open model, collaborative and open management of knowledge and information InterLegis.},

For the simulation community, the open source movement represents an opportunity to improve the quality of common core simulation functions, improve the potential for creating reusable modeling components from those core functions, and improve the ability to merge those components using XML, HLA and other simulation community standards. This paper extends the OpenSML-project by using universal, language independent XML-descriptions and code generators for converting OpenSML-models to programs in Java, VisualBasic or C++.

abstract = {Keeping open-source software (OSS) up to date is one potential solution to prevent known vulnerabilities. However, it requires frequent and costly testing and may introduce compatibility issues. Consequently, developers often choose to backport security patches to the vulnerable versions instead. Manual backporting is time-consuming, especially for large OSS such as the Linux kernel. Therefore, automating this process is urgently needed to save considerable time. Existing automated approaches for backporting patches involve either automatic patch generation or automatic patch migration. However, these methods are often ineffective and error-prone since they failed to locate the precise patch locations or generate the correct patch, operating only on the syntactic level.In this paper, we propose a patch type-sensitive approach to automatically backport OSS security patches, guided by the patch type and patch semantics. Specifically, our approach identifies patch locations with the aid of program dependency graph-based matching at the semantic level. It further applies fine-grained patch migration and fine-tuning based on patch types. We have implemented our approach in a tool named TSBPORT and evaluated it on a large-scale dataset consisting of 1,815 pairs of real-world security patches for the Linux kernel. The evaluation results show that TSBPORT successfully backported 1,589 (87.59%) patches, out of which 587 (32.34%) could not be backported by any state-of-the-art approaches, significantly outperforming state-of-the-art approaches. In addition, experiments also show that TSBPORT can be generalized to backport patches in other OSS projects with a success rate of 88.18%.},

The need to collaborate with other contributors and to contribute to a project can motivate and implicitly foster learning. In order to validate such statements, it is necessary to (1) study the interactions between FLOSS projects' participants, and (2) explore the didactical value of participating in FLOSS projects, designing an appropriate questionnaire asking FLOSS contributors about their experience in FLOSS projects. In this paper, we illustrate how this questionnaire was designed and disseminated. We conclude the paper with results from 27 FLOSS projects contributors, determining that, not only they contribute and collaborate to the project and its community, but also that FLOSS contributors see that this type of activity can be regarded as a complement to formal education.},

abstract = {Effectively onboarding newcomers is essential for the success of open source projects. These projects often provide onboarding guidelines in their ’CONTRIBUTING’ files (e.g., CONTRIBUTING.md on GitHub). These files explain, for example, how to find open tasks, implement solutions, and submit code for review. However, these files often do not follow a standard structure, can be too large, and miss barriers commonly found by newcomers. In this paper, we propose an automated approach to parse these CONTRIBUTING files and assess how they address onboarding barriers. We manually classified a sample of files according to a model of onboarding barriers from the literature, trained a machine learning classifier that automatically predicts the categories of each paragraph (precision: 0.655, recall: 0.662), and surveyed developers to investigate their perspective of the predictions’ adequacy (75% of the predictions were considered adequate). We found that CONTRIBUTING files typically do not cover the barriers newcomers face (52% of the analyzed projects missed at least 3 out of the 6 barriers faced by newcomers; 84% missed at least 2). Our analysis also revealed that information about choosing a task and talking with the community, two of the most recurrent barriers newcomers face, are neglected in more than 75% of the projects. We made available our classifier as an online service that analyzes the content of a given CONTRIBUTING file. Our approach may help community builders identify missing information in the project ecosystem they maintain and newcomers can understand what to expect in CONTRIBUTING files.},

One possible reason for this gap in studies is the lack of tools that can identify and visualize the geographic distribution of contributions in OSS projects.We present Code Mapper, a tool that identifies the location of contributors in GitHub projects. To enable users to explore the global influence of their projects, Code Mapper visually presents the geographic distribution of project contributors.

abstract = {Cloud computing and open source are two disruptive innovations. Both deeply modify the way the computer resources are made available and monetized. They evolve between competition (e.g. open source software for desktop versus SaaS applications) and complementarity (e.g. cloud solutions based on open source components or cloud applications published under open source license). PaaSage is an open source integrated platform to support both design and deployment of cloud applications. The PaaSage consortium decided to publish the source code as open source. It needed a process for the open source license selection. Open source licensing scheme born before the development of cloud computing and evolved with the creation of new open source licenses suitable for SaaS applications. The license is a part of project governance and strongly influences the life of the project. In the context of the PaaSage European project, the issue of the open source license selection for cloud computing software has been addressed. The first section of the paper describes the state of the art about open source licenses including the known issues, a generic license-selection scheme and the automated source code analysis practices. The second section studies the common choices of licenses in cloud computing projects. The third section proposes a FLOSS license-selection process for cloud computing project following five steps: (1) inventoring software components, (2) selecting open source license, (3) approving license selection (vote), (4) spreading practical details and (5) monitoring source code. The fourth section describes the PaaSage use case. The last section consists in a discussion of the results.},

abstract = {Many studies have shown the benefits of introducing open-source projects into teaching Software Engineering (SE) courses. However, there are several limitations of existing studies that limit the wide adaptation of open-source projects in a classroom setting, including (1) the selected project is limited to one particular project, (2) most studies only investigated on its effect on teaching a specific SE concept, and (3) students may make mistakes in their contribution which leads to poor quality code. Meanwhile, software companies have successfully launched programs like Google Summer of Code (GSoC) and FindBugs "fixit" to contribute to open-source projects. Inspired by the success of these programs, we propose GitHub-OSS Fixit, a team-based course project where students are taught to contribute to open-source Java projects by fixing bugs reported in GitHub. We described our course outline to teach students SE concepts by encouraging the usages of several automated program analysis tools. We also included the carefully designed instructions that we gave to students for participating in GitHub-OSS Fixit. As all lectures and labs are conducted online, we think that our course design could help in guiding future online SE courses. Overall, our survey results show that students think that GitHub-OSS Fixit could help them to improve many skills and apply the knowledge taught in class. In total, 154 students have submitted 214 pull requests to 24 different Java projects, in which 93 of them have been merged, and 46 have been closed by developers.},

We test these hypotheses through content analysis of documents and instructions from a variety of free/libre open source projects. We present findings consistent with the hypotheses developed as well as results extending beyond our theory derived assumptions.

abstract = {Sustainability in Open Source Software (OSS) projects is crucial for long-term innovation, community support, and the enduring success of open-source solutions. Although multitude of studies have provided effective models for OSS sustainability, their practical implications have been lacking because most identified features are not amenable to direct tuning by developers (e.g., levels of communication, number of commits per project). 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
In this paper, we report on preliminary work toward making models more actionable based on evidence-based findings from prior research. Given a set of identified features of interest to OSS project sustainability, we performed comprehensive literature review related to those features to uncover practical, evidence-based advice, which we call Researched Actionables (ReACTs). The ReACTs are practical advice with specific steps, found in prior work to associate with tangible results. Starting from a set of sustainability-related features, this study contributes 105 ReACTs to the SE community by analyzing 186 published articles. Moreover, this study introduces a newly developed tool (ReACTive) designed to enhance the exploration of ReACTs through visualization across various facets of the OSS ecosystem. The ReACTs idea opens new avenues for connecting SE metrics to actionable research in SE in general.},

This has made it impossible to do quality control by hand. Instead, distribution editors must look to automated methods to ensure the quality of their distributions.In the present paper, we present some insights into the general structure of FLOSS distributions. We notably show that such distributions have the characteristics of a small world network: there are only a few important packages, and many less important packages. Identifying the important packages can help editors focus their efforts on parts of the distribution where errors will have important consequences.},

During its short lifetime, the Project has inspired increasing numbers of students and instructors to make significant contributions to several humanitarian open source software development projects. In the last four years, the HFOSS Project has received material support from several partners, including the National Science Foundation, Accenture, Google, and Mozilla. This support has enabled the Project to expand its reach to add new college and university partners and to add more humanitarian software projects. Contributions to the HFOSS Project come from professionals in academia, IT organizations, and non-profit organizations that engage undergraduate students in courses, research projects, and summer internship experiences. Its curriculum is accessible to a wide range of undergraduates, since it includes courses for non- majors as well as computer science and engineering majors. This paper describes all these activities and their impact on undergraduate computing education, local non-profit organizations, and global FOSS communities. It concludes by identifying the progress that the HFOSS Project has made toward developing a sustainable infrastructure.},

abstract = {Background. The effect of gender diversity in open source communities has gained increasing attention from practitioners and researchers. For instance, organizations such as the Python Software Foundation and the OpenStack Foundation started actions to increase gender diversity and promote women to top positions in the communities. Problem. Although the general underrepresentation of women (a.k.a. horizontal segregation) in open source communities has been explored in a number of research studies, little is known about the vertical segregation in open source communities---which occurs when there are fewer women in high level positions. Aims. To address this research gap, in this paper we present the results of a mixed-methods study on gender diversity and work practices of core developers contributing to open-source communities. Method. In the first study, we used mining-software repositories procedures to identify the core developers of 711 open source projects, in order to understand how common are women core developers in open source communities and characterize their work practices. In the second study, we surveyed the women core developers we identified in the first study to collect their perceptions of gender diversity and gender bias they might have observed while contributing to open source systems. Results. Our findings show that open source communities present both horizontal and vertical segregation (only 2.3% of the core developers are women). Nevertheless, differently from previous studies, most of the women core developers (65.7%) report never having experienced gender discrimination when contributing to an open source project. Finally, we did not note substantial differences between the work practices among women and men core developers. Conclusions. We reflect on these findings and present some ideas that might increase the participation of women in open source communities.},

abstract = {(Background) Software vulnerabilities pose a serious threat to the security of computer systems. Hence, there is a constant race for defenders to find and patch them before attackers are able to exploit them. Measuring different aspects of this process is important in order to better understand it and improve the odds for defenders. (Aims) The human factor of the vulnerability discovery and patching process has received limited attention. Better knowledge of the characteristics of the people and organizations who discover and report security vulnerabilities can considerably enhance our understanding of the process, provide insights regarding the expended effort in vulnerability hunting, contribute to better security metrics, and help guide practical decisions regarding the strategy of projects to attract vulnerability researchers.(Method) In this paper, we present what is, to the best of our knowledge, the first large-scale empirical study on the people and organizations who report vulnerabilities in popular FLOSS projects. Collecting data from a multitude of publicly available sources (NVD, bug-tracking platforms, vendor advisories, source code repositories), we create a dataset of reporter information for 2193 unique reporting entities of 4756 CVEs affecting the Mozilla suite, Apache httpd, the PHP interpreter, and the Linux kernel. We use the dataset to investigate several aspects of the vulnerability discovery process, specifically regarding the distribution of contributions, their temporal characteristics, and the motivations of reporters.(Results) Among our results: around 80% of reports come from 20% of reporters; first time reporters are significant contributors to the yearly total in all 4 projects; productive reporters are specialized w.r.t. the project and vulnerability types; around half of all reports come from reporters acknowledging an affiliation.(Conclusions) Projects depend both on a core of dedicated and productive reporters, and on small contributions from a large number of community reporters. The generalized Pareto principle (the (1 - p)/p law) can be used as a metric for the concentration of contributions in the vulnerability-reporting ecosystem of a project.},

abstract = {OSS-based learning refers to using open source software (OSS) and their sociotechnical practices in the pedagogical context. Several educators reported its benefits and barriers within different contexts, goals, and areas of knowledge, bringing evidence that it is a feasible approach to address Software Engineering Education challenges. Some appealing factors to adopting OSS-based learning are the availability of the software source code and workflows, access to the OSS community, and information about its development and evolution, which may improve the learning of SE concepts and practices and foster students’ engagement in real-world projects. Observing students as they work towards hard and soft skills, understanding, engaging with, and eventually contributing to an OSS project is a rewarding part of the routine of educators who have recognized the benefits of OSS-based learning and adopted it in their classes. We report our experience after delivering a “hands-on” course to introduce graduate students to OSS projects and their sociotechnical practices. Some graduate students were higher education instructors in other institutions. We present the course design and details of its execution, followed by a reflection based on students’ feedback and our perceptions of gains and pains. Overall, students valued the course and were highly motivated to explore OSS, especially those who worked as educators. Most of the feedback concerning the course methodology was positive, but some students requested more information about the weekly lesson plans in advance. We hope this experience report helps to demystify OSS, inspire educators to adopt OSS projects in their courses, and foster instructors’ and students’ engagement with OSS projects.},

Core contributors and peripheral contributors work together to create a successful project, each playing a different role. One-Time Contributors (OTCs), who are on the very fringe of the peripheral developers, are largely unstudied despite offering unique insights into the development process. In a prior survey, we identified OTCs and discovered their motivations and barriers. Aims: The objective of this study is to corroborate the survey results and provide a better understand of OTCs. We compare OTCs to other peripheral and core contributors to determine whether they are distinct. Method: We mined data from the same code-review repository used to identify survey respondents in our previous study. After identifying each contributor as core, periphery, or OTC, we compared them in terms of patch size, time interval from submission to decision, the nature of their conversations, and patch acceptance rates. Results: We identified a continuum between core developers and OTCs. OTCs create smaller patches, face longer time intervals between patch submission and rejection, have longer review conversations, and face lower patch acceptance rates. Conversely, core contributors create larger patches, face shorter time intervals for feedback, have shorter review conversations, and have patches accepted at the highest rate. The peripheral developers fall in between the OTCs and the core contributors. Conclusion: OTCs do, in fact, face the barriers identified in our prior survey. They represent a distinct group of contributors compared to core and peripheral developers.},

Contrary to traditional education practices, the high-level training required to fulfill this demand should rely on the principle that the learners are themselves responsible for their learning process, that they have control over this process, and that the process aims at developing cross-disciplinary and problem-driven competences, not only at acquiring content knowledge. However, such training requires the presence of a highly interactive, problem-oriented environment for technology-supported learning (or e-learning). This poster presents a doctoral research project, which aims at designing, validating and monitoring a collaborative e-learning environment based on the principles of Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS). In order to validate its outcomes, the project will rely on two real-life professional training programs: in Software Engineering for software managers and in e-Government for public managers.

Open source license is crucial to the community development and commercial interests of an OSS project, yet choosing a proper license from hundreds of licenses remains challenging. Tools assisting developers to understand the terms and pick the right license have been emerging, while inferring license compatibility on the dependency tree and satisfying the complex needs of developers are beyond the capability of most of them. Thus we propose LicenseRec, an open source license recommendation tool that helps to bridge the gap. LicenseRec performs fine-grained license compatibility checks on OSS projects' code and dependencies, and assists developers to choose the optimal license through an interactive wizard with guidelines of three aspects: personal open source style, business pattern, and community development. The usefulness of LicenseRec is confirmed by the consistent positive feedback from 10 software developers with academic and industrial backgrounds. Our tool is accessible at https://licenserec.com and a video showcasing the tool is available at https://video.licenserec.com.},

abstract = {Open source software (OSS) has been widely used to accelerate software development, inevitably exposing downstr omissions and false positives; omissions put applications and their users at risk, and false positives increase the burden on software developers and users. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a two-phase based approach for JAVA OSS vulnerability analysis. To reduce underreporting, we construct a comprehensive third-party library and vulnerability association database; to avoid false positives, first, we use a static analysis method to extract the structure-aware call graph (SACG) of oss and locate the information of the vulnerability functions; second, we compare the similarity between the OSS vulnerability functions and the pre-patch and post-patch functions based on the vulnerability patches to determine the existence of the patches in the OSS, and then verify the OSS vulnerability information. We evaluate the method on a dataset of 7 open source projects and 167 vulnerability information, and the F1 value of the method is 0.779, which is higher than the currently available SOTA tools.},

Starting out as arallying point for techno-activists, FOSS is today a valued optionsupported by Governments, Businesses as well as the civil societyin most parts of the word. The State of Kerala in southernIndia, already quite unique on a variety of social, democratic andpolitical indicators, was the first to adopt FOSS as an instrumentof State policy in 2001. As it celebrates a decade of FOSS in 2011,Kerala demonstrates the remarkable transition of FOSS into acost-effective, pragmatic, and technologically sound strategy thatsimultaneously upholds the principles of freedom and democracy.Given that software is set to permeate most aspects of humanendeavor, the use of FOSS is an example for a highly sustainable -- socially, politically and technologically -- model of use of ICTs forhumanity.},

Such is probably the reason for a number of higher education institutions to include in their Software Engineering curricula some form of contact with the FLOSS reality. This paper explores such a perspective through an on-going case study on university students' collaboration in FLOSS projects. The aim of this research is to 1 identify what should be learnt about software development through regular participation in a FLOSS project/community, and 2 assess the didactic potential of this kind of non-standard learning experiences. To this aim we resorted to a participatory research action approach and qualitative methods, namely case studies combining direct observation and interviews.},

From large technology companies to startups, companies are participating in the OSS ecosystem by open-sourcing their technology, sponsoring projects through funding or paid developer time. However, our understanding of the OSS ecosystem is rooted in the "old world" model where individual contributors sustain OSS projects. In this work, we create a more comprehensive understanding of the hybrid OSS landscape by investigating what motivates companies to contribute and how they contribute to OSS. We conducted interviews with 20 participants who have different roles (e.g., CEO, OSPO Lead, Ecosystem Strategist) at 17 different companies of different sizes from large companies (e.g. Microsoft, RedHat, Google, Spotify) to startups. Data from semi-structured interviews reveal that company motivations can be categorized into four levels (Founders' Vision, Reputation, Business Advantage, and Reciprocity) and companies participate through different mechanisms (e.g., Developers' Time, Mentoring Time, Advocacy & Promotion Time), each of which tie to the different types of motivations. We hope our findings nudge more companies to participate in the OSS ecosystem, helping make it robust, diverse, and sustainable.},

Unfortunately, the current state-of-the-art is poorly equipped to mine floss refactoring from version histories, mainly because they infer refactorings by comparing two snapshots of a system and making educated guesses about the precise edit operations applied in between. In this paper we propose a solution that reconstructs refactorings not on snapshots of a system but using the actual changes as they are performed in an integrated development environment. We compare our solution against RefFinder and demonstrate that on a small yet representative program (the well-known "Video Rental system") our approach is more accurate in identifying occurrences of the "Move Method" and "Rename Method" refactorings.},

Although machine learning-based toxicity detection tools trained on domain-specific data have shown promise, their design lacks an understanding of the unique nature and triggers of toxicity in OSS discussions, highlighting the need for further investigation. In this study, we employ Moral Foundations Theory to examine the relationship between moral principles and toxicity in OSS. Specifically, we analyze toxic communications in GitHub issue threads to identify and understand five types of moral principles exhibited in text, and explore their potential association with toxic behavior. Our preliminary findings suggest a possible link between moral principles and toxic comments in OSS communications, with each moral principle associated with at least one type of toxicity. The potential of MFT in toxicity detection warrants further investigation.},

Proper empirical methods that can shed light into FLOSS development are desirable. In this paper, we propose an empirical method to validate a software development model for FLOSS, the Adapted Staged Model for FLOSS. We mined some selected metrics from Apache Ivy and study their evolution using S-shaped curves. Our results indicate that S-shaped curves can model software evolution well for Ivy. Moreover, we demonstrated that our method can be used to identify successfully different stages of its development, validating part of the Adapted Staged Model for FLOSS.},

abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) projects play a critical role in the digital infrastructure of companies and services provided to millions of people. Given their importance, understanding the resilience of OSS projects is paramount. A primary reason for OSS project failure is the shock caused by the dropout of a core developer, which can jeopardize productivity and project survival. Using a difference-in-differences (DiD) analysis, this study investigates the repercussions of this shock on the productivity of 8,234 developers identified among 9,573 OSS GitHub projects. Our findings reveal the indirect impact of the core developer's dropout. The remaining developers experienced a 20% productivity drop. This observation is troubling because it suggests that the shock might push other developers to drop out, putting the collaboration structure of the project at risk. Also, projects with higher productivity before the shock experienced a larger drop-down after the shock. This points to a tradeoff between productivity and resilience, i.e., the ability of OSS projects to recover from the dropout of a core developer. Our findings underscore the importance of a balanced approach in OSS project management, harmonizing productivity goals with resilience considerations.},

abstract = {Tools and artifacts produced by open source software (OSS) have been woven into the foundation of the technology industry. To keep this foundation intact, the open source community needs to actively invest in sustainable approaches to bring in new contributors and nurture existing ones. We take a first step at this by collaboratively designing a maintainer dashboard that provides recommendations on how to attract and retain open source contributors. For example, by highlighting project goals (e.g., a social good cause) to attract diverse contributors and mechanisms to acknowledge (e.g., a "rising contributor" badge) existing contributors. Next, we conduct a project-specific evaluation with maintainers to better understand use cases in which this tool will be most helpful at supporting their plans for growth. From analyzing feedback, we find recommendations to be useful at signaling projects as welcoming and providing gentle nudges for maintainers to proactively recognize emerging contributors. However, there are complexities to consider when designing recommendations such as the project current development state (e.g., deadlines, milestones, refactoring) and governance model. Finally, we distill our findings to share what the future of recommendations in open source looks like and how to make these recommendations most meaningful over time.Open Source Software (OSS) plays an important role in the development and maintenance of software products that are widely deployed in different domains from computer science to astrophysics and cutting edge medicines research. Chances are there is an open source project for anyone to contribute to. With the recent deployment of the popular Linux open source project on Mars even the sky is no limit. However, OSS projects largely depend on volunteers and attracting, retaining, and keeping contributors engaged is a severe challenge. In this paper, we present the design and evaluation of a dashboard to support community managers, such as maintainers, to track and acknowledge newcomers' contributions. With the support of tools such as ours, maintainers will be better prepared to attract and retain their emerging community.},

abstract = {Past software engineering literature has firmly established that software architectures and the associated code decay over time. Architectural decay is, potentially, a major issue in Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects,since developers sporadically joining FLOSS projects do not always have a clear understanding of the underlying architecture, and may break the overall conceptual structure by several small changes to the code base.This paper investigates whether the structure of a FLOSS system and its decay can also be influenced by the repository in which it is retained: specifically,two FLOSS repositories are studied to understand whether the complexity of the software structure in the sampled projects is comparable, or one repository hosts more complex systems than the other. It is also studied whether the effort to counteract this complexity is dependent on the repository, and the governance it gives to the hosted projects.The results of the paper are two-fold: on one side, it is shown that the repository hosting larger and more active projects presents more complex structures. On the other side, these larger and more complex systems benefit from more anti-regressive work to reduce this complexity.},

While previous research recognizes the significance of trust in an organizational setting, there is a lack of understanding in how trust is exhibited in OSS distributed teams, where there is an absence of direct, in-person communications. To foster trust and collaboration in OSS teams, we need to understand what trust is and how it is exhibited in written developer communications (e.g., pull requests, chats). In this paper, we first investigate various dimensions of trust to identify the ways trusting behavior can be observed in OSS. Next, we sample a set of 100 GitHub pull requests from Apache Software Foundation (ASF) projects, to analyze and demonstrate how each dimension of trust can be exhibited. Our findings provide preliminary insights into cues that might be helpful to automatically assess team dynamics and establish interpersonal trust in OSS teams, leading to successful and sustainable OSS.},

Researchers have, for years, debated the social structure of OSS projects -- in particular, the extent to which they represent decentralized forms of organization. Many have argued that the significant concentration of code development responsibility raises doubts about whether the level of power-sharing truly qualifies as "distributed" in the way early observers predicted. This research will investigate how changes in the technology that supports these projects -- specifically the greater visibility that characterizes the GitHub workspace may lead to a more broadly and quantifiably distributed leadership. Over the course of several studies employing several methodologies, it will examine leadership in OSS projects when visibility is a feature of the workspace.},

abstract = {Modern software engineering practice and training increasingly rely on Open Source Software (OSS). The recent growth in demand for professional software engineers has led to increased contributions to, and usage of, OSS. However, there is limited understanding of the factors affecting how developers, and how new or student developers in particular, decide which OSS projects to contribute to, a process critical to OSS sustainability, access, adoption, and growth. To better understand OSS contributions from the developers of tomorrow, we conducted a four-year study with 1,361 students investigating the life cycle of their contributions (from project selection to pull request acceptance). During the study, we also delivered a lightweight intervention to promote the awareness of open source projects for social good (OSS4SG), OSS projects that have positive impacts in other domains. Using both quantitative and qualitative methods, we analyze student experience reports and the pull requests they submit. Compared to general OSS projects, we find significant differences in project selection (𝑝 < 0.0001, effect size = 0.84), student motivation (𝑝 < 0.01, effect size = 0.13), and increased pull-request acceptance rates for OSS4SG contributions. We also find that our intervention correlates with increased student contributions to OSS4SG (𝑝 < 0.0001, effect size = 0.38). Finally, we analyze correlations of factors such as gender or working with a partner. Our findings may help improve the experience for new developers participating in OSS4SG and the quality of their contributions. We also hope our work helps educators, project leaders, and contributors to build a mutually-beneficial framework for the future growth of OSS4SG.},

abstract = {A significant challenge in software engineering is accurately modeling projects in order to correctly forecast success or failure. The primary difficulty is that software development efforts are complex in terms of both the technical and social aspects of the engineering environment. This is compounded by the lack of real data that captures both the measures of success in performing a process, and the measures that reflect a group's social dynamics. This research focuses on the development of a model for predicting software project success that leverages the wealth of available open source project data in order to accurately forecast the behavior of those software engineering groups. The model accounts for both the technical elements of software engineering and the social elements that drive the decisions of individual developers. Agent-based simulations are used to represent the complexity of the group interactions, and the behavior of each agent is based on the acquired open source software engineering data. For four of the five project success measures, the results indicate that the developed model represents the underlying data well and provides accurate predictions of open source project success indicators.},

abstract = {Governance has been highlighted as a key factor in the success of an Open Source Software (OSS) project. It is generally seen that in a mixed meritocracy and autocracy governance model, the decision-making (DM) responsibility regarding what features are included in the OSS is shared among members from select roles; prominently the project leader. However, less examination has been made whether members from these roles are also prominent in DM discussions and how decisions are made, to show they play an integral role in the success of the project. We believe that to establish their influence, it is necessary to examine not only discussions of proposals in which the project leader makes the decisions, but also those where others make the decisions. Therefore, in this study, we examine the prominence of members performing different roles in: (i) making decisions, (ii) performing certain social roles in DM discussions (e.g., discussion starters), (iii) contributing to the OSS development social network through DM discussions, and (iv) how decisions are made under both scenarios. We examine these aspects in the evolution of the well-known Python project. We carried out a data-driven longitudinal study of their email communication spanning 20 years, comprising about 1.5 million emails. These emails contain decisions for 466 Python Enhancement Proposals (PEPs) that document the language’s evolution. Our findings make the influence of different roles transparent to future (new) members, other stakeholders, and more broadly, to the OSS research community.},

This study seeks ways of deriving competitive advantage with the use of FOSS in South African universities with specific reference to TUT. In other to achieve the above, the basics, problems and the benefits of FOSS are reviewed. Thereafter, the successful implementation of FOSS both in a developed country and a developing country are looked at. Furthermore, to enable an assessment of the possible impact of FOSS towards deriving competitive advantage, a SWOT analysis representing a synthesis between FOSS Strongpoint's, Weak points, and the Opportunities and Threats is presented in the South African context. Also done is an analysis based on the PESTE framework to identify the driving forces of change within the South African society in general as they relate to Political, Economic, Social Technological and Environmental factors that could have affected FOSS adoption. Similarly, Porter's 5 fundamental competitive forces are used to analyse the current FOSS phenomena towards the goal of enhancing FOSS adoption. A synthesis of these led to recommendations and concludes the study as a step towards increasing the awareness of FOSS and convincing users about the immense possibilities enabled by the silent revolution its double freedom in its enhanced form of Free / Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) phenomenon towards deriving competitive advantage.},

Researchers have studied collaboration and coordination of open source software developers using an approach known as social network analysis and have gained important insights about these projects. Most researchers, however, have not focused on the integrated study of these networks and, accordingly, in their interrelationships. This paper describes an approach and tool to combine multiple social networks to study the evolution of open-source projects. Our tool, named Sargas, allows comparison and visualization of different social networks at the same time. Initial results of our analysis can be used to extend the "onion-model" of open source participation.},

abstract = {Since the users of open source software (OSS) projects may not use the latest version all the time, OSS development teams often support code maintenance for old versions through maintaining multiple stable branches. Typically, the developers create a stable branch for each old stable version, deploy security patches on the branch, and release fixed versions at regular intervals. As such, old-version applications in production environments are protected from the disclosed vulnerabilities in a long time. However, the rapidly growing number of OSS vulnerabilities has greatly strained this patch deployment model, and a critical need has arisen for the security community to understand the practice of security patch management across stable branches. In this work, we conduct a large-scale empirical study of stable branches in OSS projects and the security patches deployed on them via investigating 608 stable branches belonging to 26 popular OSS projects as well as more than 2,000 security fixes for 806 CVEs deployed on stable branches. Our study distills several important findings: (i) more than 80% affected CVE-Branch pairs are unpatched; (ii) the unpatched vulnerabilities could pose a serious security risk to applications in use, with 47.39% of them achieving a CVSS score over 7 (High or Critical Severity); and (iii) the patch porting process requires great manual efforts and takes an average of 40.46 days, significantly extending the time window for N-day vulnerability attacks. Our results reveal the worrying state of security patch management across stable branches. We hope our study can shed some light on improving the practice of patch management in OSS projects.},

Both SDT and SIT have been found valuable concepts for staffing decisions in organizations.

This paper presents an approach to data collection by using aggregation of feeds published by the different tools of a software forge. To allow this aggregation, collected data is semantically reformatted into Semantic Web standards: RDF, DC, DOAP, FOAF and EvoOnt. Resulting data can then be processed, re-published or displayed to project members. This approach was used to implement a supervision module that is integrated into the PicoForge platform. This module is able to draw a live graph of the social community out of the different sources of data, and in turn exports semantic feeds for other uses.},

Current literature explains the contributors' lifecycle, starting with the motivations that drive people to contribute and barriers to joining OSS projects, covering developers' evolution until they become core members. However, the stages when developers leave the projects are still weakly explored and are not well-defined in existing developers' lifecycle models. In this position paper, we enrich the knowledge about the leaving stage by identifying sleeping and dead states, representing temporary and permanent brakes that developers take from contributing. We conducted a preliminary set of semi-structured interviews with active developers. We analyzed the answers by focusing on defining and understanding the reasons for the transitions to/from sleeping and dead states. This paper raises new questions that may guide further discussions and research, which may ultimately benefit OSS communities.},

The voluntary, self-organizing distribution of decentralized labor and the distinct nature of some OSS projects intensifies this challenge. Mentors, who work closely with newcomers, develop strategies to recommend tasks. However, to date neither the challenges mentors face in recommending tasks nor their strategies have been formally documented or studied. In this paper, we interviewed mentors of well-established OSS projects (n=10) and qualitatively analyzed their answers to identify both challenges and strategies related to recommending tasks for newcomers. Then, we employed a survey (n=30) to map the strategies to challenges and collect additional strategies. Our study identified 7 challenges and 13 strategies related to task recommendation. Strategies such as "tagging the issues based on difficulty," "adding documentation," "assigning a small task first and then challenge the newcomers with bigger tasks," and "dividing tasks into smaller pieces" were frequently mentioned as ways to overcome multiple challenges. Our results provide insights for mentors about the strategies OSS communities can use to guide their mentors and for tool builders who design automated support for task assignment.},

De-spite their different stocks of background knowledge, most of them engage in documentation, whether as writers or readers. This paper explores how documents serve such diverse users by building a framework articulating the characteristics of documents supporting collaborators with asymmetric access to knowledge versus people with symmetric knowledge. Drawing on document-centric approaches we hypothesize that documents supporting asymmetric groups are likely to be more prescriptive and explicate their own use compared to documents supporting symmetric groups. Through exploratory analysis of two kinds of documents, used across three FLOSS projects, we find that documents supporting collaborators with asymmetric knowledge do appear to explicate their own use in more detail. They do so by prescribing their own 1) purpose, 2) context of use, 3) content and form in greater detail than documents used by core community members with symmetric access to project knowledge.},

Dependencies are defined from evolutionary analysis of the commit graph of OSS code development and syntactical dependencies. We demonstrate our method with an explorative study of an open source project, the Spring Framework.

However, newcomers to OSS face several challenges when joining a project. Particularly, they do not know where to start, or choose tasks that they can be successful at. Here, we describe our vision towards BugExchange, a system that curates tasks from OSS projects and helps train newcomers. While evaluating and executing these tasks, newcomers can gain an understanding about the project, its technology, and concepts. There are many challenges in designing such a system. For example, identifying the information needs of newcomers, creating task recommendations that match newcomers’ skills and career goals, and providing mentoring and networking support. We plan to leverage our previous work to conceive and prototype our system, which will include multiple research lines. BugExchange has the potential to improve newcomer learning experiences, reduce dropouts, and foster community building.},

Through a study of workers from two organizations working on FLOSS projects we identify the boundaries, in terms of productivity and quality of life, of virtual work and actions workers take in order to find a work-life balance. We found that although workers valued the flexibility of working from home, they had difficulty focusing on their work for sustained time periods and often felt isolated. This motivated them to use coworking spaces - physical spaces used as work space by workers not on the same team or even the same firm - as a critical part of their space ecology. In conjunction with their media ecology - a mix of communication technologies including IRC - the space/media mix allowed them to balance their work and personal lives. We draw implications for better supporting FLOSS and virtual work practices through design of media/space and work practices.},

For such software development paradigm, how to evaluate the skills of the developers comprehensively and automatically is critical. However, most of the existing researches assess the developers based on the Implementation aspects, such as the artifacts they created or edited. They ignore the developers' contributions in Social collaboration aspects, such as answering questions, giving advices, making comments or creating social connections. In this paper, we propose a novel model which evaluate the individuals' skills from both Implementation and Social collaboration aspects. Our model defines four metrics from muti-dimensions, including collaboration index, technical skill, community influence and development contribution. We carry out experiments on a real-world online software community. The results show that our approach can make more comprehensive measurement than the previous work.},

Research has been done to promote techniques and tools for providing open source developers with innovative features aiming at obtaining improvements in terms of development effort, cost savings, and developer productivity, just to mention a few. In the context of the EU H2020 CROSSMINER project we are conceiving a set of recommendations to assist software programmers in different phases of the development process. To this end, we defined a graph-based representation to encode in a homogeneous manner different aspects of OSS ecosystems as well as to incorporate various well-founded recommendation techniques. Following the proposed paradigm, we have implemented recommender systems for providing various artifacts, such as third-party libraries and API usage. The preliminary results we achieved so far are promising: our proposed systems are able to suggest highly relevant items with respect to the current development context. In this paper, we describe what has been achieved so far as well as our planned medium and longer-term objectives. As a proof of concept, we present a use case where we built a context-aware recommender system to recommend API function calls and usage patterns.},

However, it is unclear what automated testing practices exist, and how efficient or widespread such practices are within open source software. Although some organizations rigorously apply automated testing to their software, this rich pool of test code is not utilized to serve existing source code with poor or no test suites. To investigate how automated testing is performed in practice, we attempted a thorough, large-scale analysis of open source repositories. Alongside this analysis, we propose a novel approach to reuse such existing tests within projects that lack test code, hence leveraging the quality of such projects with minimal developer intervention. While such an analysis seems to be a straightforward task, we report on various practical challenges that hindered applying our proposed approach for tests' reuse. We present the challenges we have addressed so far, and those we expect to appear in the near future, in applying our approach for test reuse with open source projects. We outline potential solutions to the projected future challenges.},

Evolution history recorded in software repositories, e.g., Version Control Systems, reflects people's software development practice. Exploring this history could help practitioners to reuse the best practices therefore improve productivity and software quality. Because of the difficulty of collecting and standardizing data, most existing work could only utilize small project set. In this study, we target the open source software universe to build a universal code evolution model for large-scale data. We consider code evolution from two aspects: code version changing history in a single project and code reuse history in the whole universe. In the model, files/modules are built as nodes, and relations (version change or reuse) between files/modules are built as connections. Based on the model, we design and implement a code evolution review framework, i.e., Code Evolution Reviewer (CER), which provides a series of data interfaces to review code evolution history, in particular, code version changing in single project and code reuse among projects. Further, CER could be utilized to explore best practices across large-scale project set.},

abstract = {While complexity is an essential problem inherent in software system and its development, OSS (Open-Source Software) is not an exception and is not immune to this problem as well. The fast growth of OSS movement has impressed us with reduced cost but high quality software. To learn some lessons from successful OSS in handling the complexity, social network analysis is prevalent in analyzing both human-aspect and source-code-aspect interaction of OSS. This paper conducted an empirical study of an OSS project-ArgoUML. Unlike most previous studies regarding OSS email archives as a whole social network, our focus is on the quantitative analysis of a series of social networks produced in the process of OSS version evolution and module development.Through the empirical study, we have found that all the social network measures employed in this study are comparable to identify core developers of ArgoUML project. The frequency of co-occurrence of developers within the same topic is not a decisive factor to identify core developers. Developers within the same module communicate closely and frequently with each other. The more modules a developer developed, the more communication he (or she) will have with other developers. Although participants of developers' mailing lists are fluctuating in a large magnitude, the committers of the source code are kept stable in each version evolution. Moreover, the variation of committers of source code in version evolutions is almost unpredictable based on the variation of participants in developers' mailing lists.},

abstract = {Software is developed in a dynamic context where team structure, requirements, and processes evolve together with the product. Although researchers have been studying the evolution of software systems since the early 70s, the study on the evolution of software development teams remains rare. Such evolutionary patterns and their impact on software quality are especially important in the context of OSS (Open Source Software) development, where a group of volunteer developers collaborate online for an extended period of time. By analyzing how social networks of developers evolve over time while building OSS products, we can gain knowledge and experience to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of resource management and distribution in future OSS projects. To this end, we studied the evolution of the developer communities using a suite of OSS products developed under the KOffice project. We found that in general, the social networks of OSS developer communities change over time in certain ways. Identifying such patterns can help OSS managers better understand the unique process of OSS development and improve their management and coordination of the projects.},

This work copes with a relevant issue for this architecture, namely unresponsive components because of deadlocks and infinite loops. In particular, a monitor sends heartbeat messages to a component that should reply within a timeout. The timeout choice is tricky, since it should be dynamically adapted to the load conditions of the system. Therefore, our approach is based on an adaptive heartbeat mechanism, in which the timeout is estimated from past response times. We implement and compare three estimation algorithms for the choice of the timeout in the context of the Minix 3 OS. From the analysis we derive useful guidelines for choosing the best algorithm with respect to system requirements.},

Empirical software engineering researchers can mine the artifacts from these tools to better understand how FLOSS is made. As the landscape of distributed software development has grown and changed, the tools needed to make FLOSS have changed as well. There are three newer tools at the center of FLOSS development today: distributed version control based forges (like Github), programmer question-and-answer communities (like Stack Overflow), and paste bin tools (like Gist or Pastebin.com). These tools are extending and changing the toolset used for FLOSS development, and redefining what a software forge looks like. The main contributions of this paper are to describe each of these tools, to identify the data and artifacts available for mining from these tools, and to outline some of the ways researchers can use these artifacts to continue to understand how FLOSS is made.},

isbn = {9781467364416},
publisher = {IEEE Press},
abstract = {Many Open Source Software (OSS) projects are moving form Centralized Version Control (CVC) to Distributed Version Control (DVC). The effect of this shift on project organization and developer collaboration is not well understood. In this paper, we use a theoretical argument to evaluate the appropriateness of using DVC in the context of two very common organization forms in OSS: a dictatorship and a peer group. We find that DVC facilitates large hierarchical communities as well as smaller groups of developers, while CVC allows for consensus-building by a peer group. We also find that the flexibility of DVC systems allows for diverse styles of developer collaboration. With CVC, changes flow up and down (and publicly) via a central repository. In contrast, DVC facilitates collaboration in which work output can flow sideways (and privately) between collaborators, with no repository being inherently more important or central. These sideways flows are a relatively new concept. Developers on the Linux project, who tend to be experienced DVC users, cluster around "sandboxes:" repositories where developers can work together on a particular topic, isolating their changes from other developers. In this work, we focus on two large, mature OSS projects to illustrate these findings. However, we suggest that social media sites like GitHub may engender other original styles of collaboration that deserve further study.},

We started the study by introducing the population pyramid visualization to software development communities, called software population pyramids, and found a typical pattern in shapes. This pattern comes from the differences in attracting coding contributors and discussion contributors. To understand the causes of the differences, we then build game-theoretical models of the contribution situation. Based on these results, we again analyzed the projects empirically to support the outcome of the models, and found empirical evidence. The answers to the initial questions are clear. To incentivize developers to code, the projects should prepare documents, or the projects or third parties should hire developers, and these are what sustainable projects in Git Hub did in reality. In addition, making innovations to reduce the writing costs can also have an impact in attracting coding contributors.},

abstract = {Developers in complex, self-organized open-source projects often work on many different files, and over time switch focus between them. Shifting focus can have impact on the software quality and productivity, and is thus an important topic of investigation. In this paper, we study focus shifting patterns (FSPs) of developers by comparing trace data from a dozen open source software (OSS) projects of their longitudinal commit activities and file dependencies from the projects call graphs. Using information theoretic measures of network structure, we find that fairly complex focus-shifting patterns emerge, and FSPs in the same project are more similar to each other. We show that developers tend to shift focus along with, rather than away from, software dependency links described by the call graphs. This tendency becomes weaker as either the interval between successive commits, or the organizational distance between committed files (i.e. directory distance), gets larger. Interestingly, this tendency appears stronger with more productive developers. We hope our study will initiate interest in further understanding of FSPs, which can ultimately help to (1) improve current recommender systems to predict the next focus of developers, and (2) provide insight into better call graph design, so as to facilitate developers' work.},

isbn = {9781467310673},
publisher = {IEEE Press},
abstract = {To survive and succeed, software projects need to attract and retain contributors. We model the individual's chances to become a valuable contributor through their capacity, willingness, and the opportunity to contribute at the time of joining. Using issue tracking data of Mozilla and Gnome, we find that the probability for a new joiner to become a Long Term Contributor (LTC) is associated with her willingness and environment. Specifically, during their first month, future LTCs tend to be more active and show more community-oriented attitude than other joiners. Joiners who start by commenting on instead of reporting an issue or ones who succeed to get at least one reported issue to be fixed, more than double their odds of becoming an LTC. The macro-climate with high project relative sociality and the micro-climate with a large, productive, and clustered peer group increase the odds. On the contrary, the macro-climate with high project popularity and the micro-climate with low attention from peers reduce the odds. This implies that the interaction between individual's attitude and project's climate are associated with the odds that an individual would become a valuable contributor or disengage from the project. Our findings may provide a basis for empirical approaches to design a better community architecture and to improve the experience of contributors.},

abstract = {How can we attract developers? What can we do to incentivize developers to write code? We started the study by introducing the population pyramid visualization to software development communities, called software population pyramids, and found a typical pattern in shapes. This pattern comes from the differences in attracting coding contributors and discussion contributors. To understand the causes of the differences, we then build game-theoretical models of the contribution situation. Based on these results, we again analyzed the projects empirically to support the outcome of the models, and found empirical evidence. The answers to the initial questions are clear. To incentivize developers to code, the projects should prepare documents, or the projects or third parties should hire developers, and these are what sustainable projects in GitHub did in reality. In addition, making innovations to reduce the writing costs can also have an impact in attracting coding contributors.},

While previous evaluations consider status gains and competence evaluations to be key drivers for novices' joining behavior, it is unclear how FLOSS developers' relationships with others affect the attraction of new developers. In this research, we look at FLOSS developers' relationships in terms of positive evaluations given by others. Using this perspective, we examine how FLOSS developers' reputation among members within and beyond the project community affects their projects' ability to attract new developers. We draw on Social Resource Theory (SRT) and hypothesize that developers with a high reputation among others enjoy high visibility and credibility, which in turn helps their projects to attract new members. Finally, we propose an evaluation approach for our research model that examines the reputation and project behavior of more than 1,000 FLOSS developers on a longitudinal base.},

abstract = {Previous studies of Object-Oriented (OO) software have reported avoidance of the inheritance mechanism and cast doubt on the wisdom of ‘deep’ inheritance levels. From an evolutionary perspective, the picture is unclear - we still know relatively little about how, over time, changes tend to be applied by developers. Our conjecture is that an inheritance hierarchy will tend to grow ‘breadth-wise’ rather than ‘depth-wise’. This claim is made on the basis that developers will avoid extending depth in favour of breadth because of the inherent complexity of having to understand the functionality of superclasses. Thus the goal of our study is to investigate this empirically. We conduct an empirical study of seven Java Open-Source Systems (OSSs) over a series of releases to observe the nature and location of changes within the inheritance hierarchies. Results showed a strong tendency for classes to be added at levels one and two of the hierarchy (rather than anywhere else). Over 96% of classes added over the course of the versions of all systems were at level 1 or level 2. The results suggest that changes cluster in the shallow levels of a hierarchy; this is relevant for developers since it indicates where remedial activities such as refactoring should be focused.},

Depending on the voluntary commitment of their contributors, initiatives developing Free Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) identified members' learning and their retention as vital. Although contributors' knowledge building has been repeatedly found to facilitate their project continuance, FLOSS projects are lacking operational advices on how to assist their members' learning. Drawing on previous literature which emphasizes project members' social interactions and their practical experiences to build new knowledge, we propose mentoring as a training method for FLOSS projects. Based on organizational experiences, we propose a measure to evaluate mentoring as an appropriate strategy for FLOSS initiatives to facilitate individuals' learning and to retain their contributors on longitudinal base.},

These leads can then be forwarded to the sales team for follow-up and can result in them potentially making a sale, thus increasing company revenue.Method: For the analysis of the forums, an untapped channel for sales leads by the company, text analysis techniques are utilized to identify potential sales leads and the discussion topics and sentiments in those leads.Results: Results of our preliminary work make a positive contribution in lessening the community manager's work in understanding the sentiment and discussion topics in the hybrid open source forum community, as well as make it easier and faster to identify potential future customers.Conclusion: We believe that the results will positively contribute to improving the sales of licenses for the hybrid open source company.},

In order to prevent conflicts from deescalating and ensure effective teamwork, companies pay careful attention to the management of members' spatial, temporal and cultural distances. While initiatives developing Free Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) similarly combine a worldwide distributed workforce, relatively little is known about how members' separation affects their collaboration. However, without such an understanding no adequate advice can be derived for managers of FLOSS initiatives on how to foster members' collaboration and retention. Building on lessons learned from the organizational domain this research hypothesizes that spatial, temporal and cultural distances are key factors for FLOSS developers' team integration and project retention. To evaluate our research hypotheses, we study FLOSS developers' contribution and conversation behavior and extract objective figures on their spatial, temporal and cultural distances to each other.},

However, sometimes students are demotivated to contribute due to entrance barriers. On the other hand, gamification is widely used to engage and motivate people to accomplish tasks and improve their performance. The goal of this work is to analyze the use of gamification to orient and motivate undergraduate students to overcome onboarding barriers and engage to OSS projects. To achieve this goal, we implemented four gaming elements (Quests, Points, Ranking, and Levels) in GitLab and assessed the environment by means of a study conducted with 17 students, within a real OSS project (JabRef). At the end of the study, the students evaluated their experience through a questionnaire. We found that the Quest element helped to guide participants and keep them motivated and points helped by providing feedback on students' performed tasks. We conclude that the gamified environment oriented the students in an attempt to make a contribution and that gamification can motivate and orient newcomers' to engage to OSS projects.},

By creating similar indices for OSS (or any) developers, this work could help defining a baseline for measuring and comparing the contributions of OSS developers in an objective, open and reproducible way.},

abstract = {When inspiring software developers to contribute to open source software, the act is often referenced as an opportunity to build tools to support the developer community. However, that is not the only charge that propels contributions--- growing interest in open source has also been attributed to software developers deciding to use their technical skills to benefit a common societal good. To understand how developers identify these projects, their motivations for contributing, and challenges they face, we conducted 21 semi-structured interviews with OSS for Social Good (OSS4SG) contributors. From our interview analysis, we identified themes of contribution styles that we wanted to understand at scale by deploying a survey to over 5765 OSS and Open Source Software for Social Good contributors. From our quantitative analysis of 517 responses, we find that the majority of contributors demonstrate a distinction between OSS4SG and OSS. Likewise, contributors described definitions based on what societal issue the project was to mitigate and who the outcomes of the project were going to benefit. In addition, we find that OSS4SG contributors focus less on benefiting themselves by padding their resume with new technology skills and are more interested in leaving their mark on society at statistically significant levels. We also find that OSS4SG contributors evaluate the owners of the project significantly more than OSS contributors. These findings inform implications to help contributors identify high societal impact projects, help project maintainers reduce barriers to entry, and help organizations understand why contributors are drawn to these projects to sustain active participation.},

Using quadrant plots, we classify projects as attractive (highly magnetic and sticky), stagnant (highly sticky, weakly magnetic), fluctuating (highly magnetic, weakly sticky), or terminal (weakly magnetic and sticky). Through analysis of the MSR challenge dataset, we find that: (1) quadrant plots can effectively identify at-risk projects, (2) stickiness is often motivated by professional activity and (3) transitions among quadrants as a project ages often coincides with interesting events in the evolution history of a project.},

abstract = {An issue that has confounded the understanding of software development in the past is the role that different numbers of developers play in the construction and subsequent evolution of software. In this paper, we investigate that facet of software using a configurable simulation framework as a basis. The framework uses 'agents' to represent developers and models the costs associated with first comprehending and then applying necessary changes to a fictitious code base. It also considers agent 'memory recall' of their own code as a fundamental part of the framework and the fact that, with higher numbers of developers, maintenance of a higher proportion of other developers' code (rather than their own) is an inevitable, yet realistic aspect. Through exploration of the results and data produced by the simulation, we are able to explore 'desirable' features that are part of simulating software evolution; as a discussion of the issues raised by the framework, we provide a set of class data from four open-source systems by way of comparison and show that trends in those systems are comparable with results generated by the simulation. The paper thus provides evidence that we can use simulation tools to help model evolving systems, whether based on default settings or user-configurable settings.},

abstract = {Reliance on data for software systems engineering is increasing, e.g., to train machine learning applications. We foresee increasing costs for data collection and maintenance, leading to the risk of development budgets eaten up by commodity features, thus leaving little resources for differentiation and innovation. We therefore propose Open Collaborative Data (OCD) - a concept analogous to Open Source Software (OSS) - as a means to share data. In contrast to Open Data (OD), which e.g., governmental agencies provide to catalyze innovation, OCD is shared in open collaboration between commercial organizations, similar to OSS. To achieve this, there is a need for technical infrastructure (e.g., tools for version and access control), licence models, and governance models, all of which have to be tailored for data. However, as data may be sensitive for privacy, anonymization and obfuscation of data is also a research challenge. In this paper, we define the concept of Open Collaborative Data, demonstrate it by map data and image recognition examples, and outline a research agenda for OCD in software engineering as a basis for more efficient evolution of software systems.},

In this context, developers are normally distributed around theworld. In addition, most of them work for free and without or with low coordinating. Understanding how developers\^{a} practices are on those projects may guide communities to successfully manage their projects. Goal:We mined two repositories of the Apache Httpd project in order to gather information about its developers\^{a} behavior.Method: We developed an approach to cross data gathered from mail list and source code repositorythrough mining techniques. The approach uses software visualization to analyze the mined data. We conductedan experimental evaluation of the approach to assess the behavioral patterns from OSS developmentcommunity.

abstract = {Traditional Software Engineering courses commonly prioritize the teaching of methodologies and concepts in small and controlled environments. This decision is partly justified by the difficulty of bringing real software projects to the classroom. The ubiquity of Open Source Software (OSS) projects contributes to mitigating this problem. Several instructors already make use of contribution to OSS as part of the teaching and evaluation process in their courses. However, little is known about how students perceive the approach of contributing to OSS projects in the context of a Software Engineering course. This paper aims to uncover challenges and benefits from the students' perspective. To achieve this, we conducted14 semi-structured interviews with students who attended to this kind of courses in five different Brazilian universities, resulting in findings not so well known. For example, we noticed that, although instructors point to the projects that students are required to contribute to, students (and the project community) are involved in the process of choosing projects and tasks (issues). We also identified that students' contributions vary in terms of number of lines added and removed in commits, as well as the use of different programming languages.},

The forges tend to follow the lock-in phenomenon, providing no easy-to-use facilities for migrating projects or their parts between forge platforms. To facilitate the process of cross-forge project migration, the following paper presents an approach of lifting forge data models to the semantic level and applying rule-based mappings for their alignment. The approach also involves Semantic Web Services to handle the process of importing/exporting project metadata from/to Open Source Software forges. Finally, the paper demonstrates the approach on the basis of proof-of-concept implementation exploiting the existing forges and presents the lessons learnt.},

Despite the latest research efforts to understand OSS peer review processes, very little is known. Unlike related work, this study investigates OSS peer review processes from a different perspective. We investigate the importance of OSS peer review contributor roles and their review activities by using social network analysis (SNA), proposed as PeRSoN (Peer Review Social Network). As a case study, we extracted and analyzed the review process of Android Open Source Project (AOSP). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first research constructing social networks from mining a peer review repository. Our preliminary results provided hints on relationships among the OSS peer review contributor roles, their activities, and the network structure. The results raised issues that will be used to refine our approach in the future.},

It is therefore increasingly important to be able to interchange model information between tools - whether in a tool chain, for legacy reasons or because of the natural heterogeneity resulting from distributed development contexts. In this study we consider the current utility of XMI interchange for supporting OSS tool adoption to complement other tools in an embedded systems development context. We find that the current state of play is disappointing, and speculate that the problem lies both with the open standards and the way in which they are being supported and interpreted. There is a challenge here for the OSS community to take a lead as tool vendors gear up for XMI 2.0.},

The proposed system utilises the community formed around F/OSS projects to produce meaningful recommendations based on specific user preferences. We suggest that such an approach would overcome some of the difficulties complicating user choice by making useful suggestions and can fit seamlessly within the structure of the majority of F/OSS projects. The main focus of this work is on the end users of free and open source software and not on the developers of the software. The social network-based approach would apply differently to these different user classes.},

abstract = {Source code analysis tools have been the vehicle for measuring and assessing the quality of a software product for decades. However, recently many studies have shown that post-deployment end-user reviews provide a wealth of insight into the quality of a software product and how it should evolve and be maintained. For example, end-user reviews help to identify missing features or inform developers about incorrect or unexpected software behavior. We believe that analyzing end-user reviews and utilizing analysis tools are a crucial step towards understanding the complete picture of the quality of a software product, as well as towards reasoning about the evolution history of it. In this paper, we investigate whether both methods correlate with one another. In other words, we explore if there exists a relationship between user satisfaction and the application's internal quality characteristics. To conduct our research, we analyze a total of 46 actual releases of three Android open source software (OSS) applications on the Google Play Store. For each release, we employ multiple static analysis tools to assess several aspects of the application's software quality. We retrieve and manually analyze the complete reviews after each release of each application from its store page, totaling 1004 reviews. Our initial results suggest that having high or low code quality does not necessary ensure user overall satisfaction.},

We show how quotation practices can be used to locate design relevant data in discussion archives. OSS developers use quotation as a mechanism to maintain the discursive context. To retrace thematic coherence in the online discussions of a major OSS project, Python, we follow how messages are linked through quotation practices. We compare our quotation-based analysis with a more conventional analysis: a thread-based of the reply-to links between messages. The advantages of a quotation-based analysis over a thread-based analysis are outlined. Our analysis reveals also the links between the social structure and elements in the discussion space and how it shapes influence in the design process.},

abstract = {With the continued evolution of technology in support of the Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO), the need for effective Situational Awareness (SA) and efficient Command & Control (C2) becomes increasingly important for successful mission planning, management, and execution. The Digital Video Broadcast - Return Channel Satellite (DVB-RCS) NetOps vision for remote management and monitoring aims to provide visibility and Situational Awareness to required communities of interest as well as the ability to view and configure all the operational layers DVB-RCS, including the devices and technology, operations and management, and missions and objectives.An effective management and monitoring solution for DVB-RCS must provide the capability to centrally manage and monitor the system, interoperate between SATCOM and terrestrial networks, consolidate technology, standardize processes, and be proactive rather than reactive. The DISN OSS is DISA's enterprise-wide Service Oriented Architecture for information sharing, management, and monitoring capabilities, based on the Telecommunications Management Network industry standards. The DISN OSS puts the information into the hands of the operators and system managers while making the processes, tools, and technology transparent to the consumer.This paper examines how DVB-RCS implemented the NetOps Portal as an immediate and interim solution to provide Situational Awareness to CENTCOM, as well as how leveraging the DISN OSS can help DVB-RCS achieve assured system and network availability, assured information protection, and assured information delivery in support of high-bandwidth, two-way services for the tactical Warfighter.},

abstract = {We are developing a teaching package that can be used in a college course that would fill a gap among current science majors and teach senior-level undergraduate students theory and practice of real-time operating systems, including their requirements, characteristics, internals, and specification. This course has two components: (1) a theoretical part, and (2) a practical hands-on implementation component achieved with DORITOS (Distributed Object-Based Real-time InsTructional Operating System) as the implementation environment. DORITOS' design is based on UC-Berkeley's NACHOS. The DORITOS package will be distributed with DKaffe (a modified version of Kaffe JVM) and a basic system which allows students to run simple threads.In this paper, we focus on the practical, hands-on system that allows students to learn the internals of a Real-time Operating Systems (RTOS). Throughout the term, assignments require students to use and modify DORITOS to implement real-time elements as well as to analyze the performance of implemented algorithms.},

abstract = {Refactoring, as a software engineering discipline has emerged over recent years to become an important aspect of maintaining software. Refactoring refers to the restructuring of software according to specific mechanics and principles. In this paper, we describe an analysis of the results from a tool whose purpose was to identify and extract refactorings from seven open-source Java systems. In particular, we analyzed the mechanics of the most commonly and least commonly applied refactorings to try and account for their frequency. Results showed the most common refactorings of the fifteen coined a 'Gang of Six', to be generally those with a high in-degree and low out-degree when mapped on a dependency graph; the same refactorings also featured strongly in the remedying of bad code smells. Remarkably and surprisingly, inheritance and encapsulationbased refactorings were found to have been applied relatively infrequently - we offer explanations for why this may be the case. The paper thus identifies 'core' refactorings central to many of the changes made by developers on open-source systems. While we can not guarantee that developers consciously undertake refactoring in any sense, the empirical results demonstrate that simple renaming and moving fields/methods between classes are common components of open-source system re-engineering. From a wider software engineering perspective, knowledge of what a modification will incur in likely sub-tasks is of value to developers whether working on open-source or other forms of software.},

This calls for the adoption of new approaches, which improve agility and reusability. Model Drive Development (MDD), as specified by OMG, can drastically tackle these issues and has, therefore, attracted the interest of the telecommunications industry. Equally important is the Open Source paradigm. For MDD to gain wide industrial adoption, tools should be available to facilitate the OSS development process. In this paper, we specify requirements MDD tools should meet for effective application of the approach. An extensive survey is then carried out to evaluate existing meta-modelling frameworks over the identified tools requirements. Eventually, we present the Integrated Eclipse Model driven Environment (IEME), which comprises a unified environment of bundled Eclipse-based MDD facilities that also supports the automatic generation of domain-specific tools.},

abstract = {Many studies have been done on secure operating system using secure kernel that has various access control policies for system security. Secure kernel can protect user or system data from unauthorized and/or illegal accesses by applying various access control policies like DAC, MAC, RBAC, and so on. But, even if secure operating system is running under various access control policies, network traffic among these secure operating systems can be captured and exposed easily by network monitoring tools like packet sniffer if there is no protection policy for network traffic among secure operating systems. For this reason, protection for data within network traffic is as important as protection for data within local system. In this paper, we propose a secure operating system trusted channel, SOSTC, as a prototype of a simple secure network protocol that can protect network traffic among secure operating systems and can transfer security information of the subject. It is significant that SOSTC can be used to extend a security range of secure operating system to the network environment.},

To assess this issue, this paper describes a real-time root cause analysis mechanism, which can pinpoint an accurate root cause and identify the influence on services. We investigated an interworking mechanism; based on a web service interface between an inventory and fault management systems and developed prototypes of them as part of an operation support system (OSS), which is capable of managing not only a core network and a metro ring network, but also a customer network. By introducing a hierarchical circuit model in the inventory management system and the proposed scanning algorithm over multiple layers and domains implemented in the fault management system, our developed root cause analysis was successfully verified using the testbed network environment; indicating relatively fast and scalable operation.},

abstract = {This paper describes a family of new Ong-Schnorr-Shamir-Fiat-Shamir-like [1] identification and signature protocols designed to prevent forgers from using the Pollard-Schnorr attack [2].Our first signature scheme (and its associated identification protocol) uses x, which is secret-free, as a commitment on which k will depend later. Therefore, the original quadratic equation is replaced by x 2 - k(x)y 2 m mod n where k(x) is a non-polynomial function of x and since the Poliard-Schnorr algorithm takes as input value k (to output x and y), it becomes impossible to feed -priori k(x) which is output-dependent.The second signature method takes advantage of the fact that although an attacker can generate valid OSS signatures (solutions {x,y} of x 2 - ky 2 m mod n), he has no control over the internal structure of x and y and in particular, if we restrict the solution space by adding extra conditions on x and y, it becomes very difficult to produce forged solutions that satisfy the new requirements.},

Abstract = {Open source software communities have demonstrated that they can produce
   high quality results. The overall success of peer code review, commonly
   used in open source projects, has likely contributed strongly to this
   success. Code review is an emotionally loaded practice, with public
   exposure of reputation and ample opportunities for conflict. We set off
   to ask why code review works for open source communities, despite this
   inherent challenge. We interviewed 21 open source contributors from four
   communities and participated in meetings of ROS community devoted to
   implementation of the code review process.
   It appears that the hacker ethic is a key reason behind the success of
   code review in FOSS communities. It is built around the ethic of passion
   and the ethic of caring. Furthermore, we observed that tasks of code
   review are performed with strong intrinsic motivation, supported by many
   non-material extrinsic motivation mechanisms, such as desire to learn,
   to grow reputation, or to improve one's positioning on the job market.
   In the paper, we describe the study design, analyze the collected data
   and formulate 20 proposals for how what we know about hacker ethics and
   human and social aspects of code review, could be exploited to improve
   the effectiveness of the practice in software projects.},

Abstract = {In the process of developing software, code review is crucial. By
   identifying problems before they arise in production, it enhances the
   quality of the code. Finding the best reviewer for a code change,
   however, is extremely challenging especially in large scale, especially
   open source software stacks with cross functioning designs and
   collaborations among multiple developers and teams. Additionally, a
   review by someone who lacks knowledge and understanding of the code can
   result in high resource consumption and technical errors. The reviewers
   who have the specialty in both functioning (domain knowledge) and
   non-functioning areas of a commit are considered as the most qualified
   reviewer to look over any changes to the code. Quality attributes serve
   as the connection among the user requirements, delivered function
   description, software architecture and implementation through put the
   entire software stack cycle. In this study, we target on auto reviewer
   assignment in large scale software stacks and aim to build a
   self-learning, and self-correct platform for intelligently matching
   between a commit based on its quality attributes and the skills sets of
   reviewers. To achieve this, quality attributes are classified and
   abstracted from the commit messages and based on which, the commits are
   assigned to the reviewers with the capability in reviewing the target
   commits. We first designed machine learning schemes for abstracting
   quality attributes based on historical data from the OpenStack
   repository. Two models are built and trained for automating the
   classification of the commits based on their quality attributes using
   the manual labeling of commits and multi-class classifiers. We then
   positioned the reviewers based on their historical data and the quality
   attributes characteristics. Finally we selected the recommended reviewer
   based on the distance between a commit and candidate reviewers. In this
   paper, we demonstrate how the models can choose the best quality
   attributes and assign the code review to the most qualified reviewers.
   With a comparatively small training dataset, the models are able to
   achieve F-1 scores of 77\% and 85.31\%, respectively.},

   frequent expectations include enhancing the feedback bots provide to

   enforcing code coverage. While maintainers report that bots satisfied
   their expectations, they also perceived unexpected effects, such as
   communication noise and newcomers' dropout. Based on these results, we

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has become a strategic asset for a number of
   reasons, such as its short timeto-market software service and product
   delivery, reduced development and maintenance costs, introduction of
   innovative features and its customization capabilities. By 2016 an
   estimated 95\% of all commercial software packages will include OSS
   components. This pervasive adoption is not without risks for an industry
   that has experienced significant failures in product quality, timelines
   and delivery costs. Exhaustive testing of any software system and,
   specifically, of open source software components is usually not feasible
   due to limitations in time and resources. In risk-based testing approach
   test cases are selected and scheduled based on software risk analysis.
   This research introduces the strategy of risk-based adaptive testing of
   OSS by combining information on the OSS community ecosystem with
   risk-driven tests selection and scheduling strategy. A key feature of
   the proposed approach is the monitoring and analysis of OSS community
   dynamics, including chats and email communications, blogs, repositories
   of bugs and fixes, and more. The community and its dynamics are then
   monitored to detect anomaly communication between the community members.
   Our approach is demonstrated in the XWiki OSS, a Java-based environment
   that allows for the storing of structured data and the execution of
   server side scripts within the wiki interface. We illustrate our
   concepts, methods and approach behind risk based testing.},

Abstract = {Application system is an important component to support business
   organizations. Information, communication and information technology
   have made developing business becomes very competitive. It is very
   crucial for companies to have fast and accurate access to
   mission-critical business information in order to maintain its
   competitiveness. The ability to establish network connections between
   the existing systems becomes a must in order to optimize the use of
   critical information. To realize this, the implementation of system
   integration looks promising. However, system integration process is not
   an easy task because it involves variety of systems with different
   organizations backgrounds. The main objective of this paper is to
   propose an integration model that is generic and easily adapted by many
   organizations. The Information Management Division, Public Sector
   Department in Malaysia is chosen as a case study. The systems used in
   this department will be analyzed and problems faced will be identified.
   Research methodology conducted includes the Analysis Phase, Design
   Phase, Development Phase and Testing Phase. In order to support the
   proposed model, prototype called myIntegration is implemented based on
   OpenSyncro. OpenSyncro is an open source software (OSS) meant for
   Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). The Testing Phase was carried
   out by taking into account the actual test scenario involving the
   Department A (owner of the Malaysian Personal Record) and Department B
   (Human Resources Manager of Malaysian Civil Servants). Tests conducted
   have shown that the exchange of information between the Department A and
   B have been successfully realized. The finding from this research, where
   a new integration model has been created, can be referred by any
   government or private organizations in developing their systems
   integration facilities. The model also besides reducing the requirement
   of hardware; also reduces the dependency to proprietary products. In
   addition, the prototype developed, which based on OpenSyncro is capable
   in providing an alternative solution to the IT community to anchor any
   systems integration project at a lower cost and in a user friendly
   environment.},

Abstract = {Modularity has been seen as key to the success of OSS projects. However
   empirical studies on modularity of OSS systems have resulted in
   confusing results. To account for underlying mechanisms of those
   confusing results, we systematically examine widely studied OSS
   projects. Based on our systematic review on technical and organizational
   structures, we suggest that organizational circumstances of OSS
   production are at least in a continuum of tightly-coupled and loosely-
   coupled organizational circumstances of production in which both
   geographically distributed volunteers and paid developers with
   organizational ties work together (albeit separately over time).
   Furthermore, organizational circumstances of OSS production appear to be
   dynamic, as firms move in and out of OSS production communities over
   time. In essence we argue that the reason for the confusing empirical
   results was a persistent assumption that organizational circumstances of
   OSS production are static or unitary; rather what matters is the
   organizational circumstances of production in any episode of

Abstract = {Background: As the area of computing has thrived over the years, the
   participation of women in computing declined. Currently women represent
   less than 24\% of the computing workforce and that number is declining.
   On the other hand, the ratios of women in Open Source Software (OSS)
   projects are even lower.
   Aims: The primary objective of this study is to determine the level of
   gender diversity among popular OSS projects and identify the presence of
   gender biases that may discourage females' participation.
   Method: On this goal, we mined the code review repositories of ten
   popular OSS projects. We used a semi-automated approach followed by a
   manual validation to identify the genders of the active contributors.
   Results: Our results suggest that lack of gender diversity remains an
   ongoing issue among all the ten projects as each of the projects had
   less than 10\% female developers. However, many of the projects also
   suffer from lack of inclusion of females to leadership positions.
   Although none of the projects suggest significant differences between
   male and female developers in terms of productivity based on three
   different measures, data from three out of the ten projects indicate
   technical biases against female developers with lower code acceptance
   rates as well as delayed feedback during code reviews. However, biases
   against females are not universal as majority of the projects do not
   discriminate against females. The two projects with the least ratios of
   female contributors as core developers showed the most biases against
   females.
   Conclusion: Based on our findings, we conclude that promoting and
   mentoring females to leadership positions may be an effective solution
   to foster gender diversity.},

Abstract = {Free Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) has become a strategic asset in
   software development, and open source communities behind FLOSS are a key
   player in the field. The analysis of open source community dynamics is a
   key capability in risk management practices focused on the integration
   of FLOSS in all types of organizations. We are conducting research in
   developing methodologies for managing risks of FLOSS adoption and
   deployment in various application domains. This paper is about the
   ability to systematically capture, filter, analyze, reason about, and
   build theories upon, the behavior of an open source community in
   combination with the structured elicitation of expert opinions on
   potential organizational business risk. The novel methodology presented
   here blends together qualitative and quantitative information as part of
   a wider analytics platform. The approach combines big data analytics
   with automatic scripting of scenarios that permits experts to assess
   risk indicators and business risks in focused tactical and strategic
   workshops. These workshops generate data that is used to construct
   Bayesian networks that map data from community risk drivers into
   statistical distributions that are feeding the platform risk management
   dashboard. A special feature of this model is that the dynamics of an
   open source community are tracked using social network metrics that
   capture the structure of unstructured chat data. The method is
   illustrated with a running example based on experience gained in
   implementing our approach in an academic smart environment setting
   including Moodbile, a Mobile Learning for Moodle (www.moodbile.org).
   This example is the first in a series of planned experiences in the
   domain of smart environments with the ultimate goal of deriving a
   complete risk model in that field.},

Abstract = {To ensure the quality of software systems, software engineers can make
   use of a variety of quality assurance approaches, for example, software
   testing, modern code review, automated static analysis, and build
   automation. Each of these quality assurance practices have been studied
   in depth in isolation, but there is a clear knowledge gap when it comes
   to our understanding of how these approaches are being used in
   conjunction, or not. In our study, we broadly investigate whether and
   how these quality assurance approaches are being used in conjunction in
   the development of 1454 popular open source software projects on GitHub.
   Our study indicates that typically projects do not follow all quality
   assurance practices together with high intensity. In fact, we only
   observe weak correlation among some quality assurance practices. In
   general, our study provides a deeper understanding of how existing
   quality assurance approaches are currently being used in Java-based open
   source software development. Besides, we specifically zoom in on the
   more mature projects in our dataset, and generally we observe that more
   mature projects are more intense in their application of the quality
   assurance practices, with more focus on their ASAT usage, and code
   reviewing, but no strong change in their CI usage.},

Pages = {194-244},
Abstract = {Despite the fact that OSS contributors tend to eschew traditional
   organizational hierarchies, researchers have found that, in many cases,
   OSS contributors make tightly coupled system designs and successfully
   coordinate highly interdependent tasks. Although researchers have
   explained how OSS contributors make tightly coupled code contributions,
   we do not know the characteristics of individuals who make such
   contributions. While previous studies have considered OSS projects as
   single, independent containers, I note that OSS projects do not
   constitute independent or standalone entities but reuse and, thus,
   depend one another. This reuse creates complex networks of
   interdependencies called ``software ecosystems{''}. In this paper, I
   analyze OSS contributors who have made tightly coupled code
   contributions using two lenses: the core-periphery lens and the
   habitual-episodic lens. Based on investigating three volunteer-driven
   OSS projects, I found OSS contributors who make tightly coupled code
   contributions to have different code-contribution patterns.
   Interestingly, I found that half of such contributors made no previous
   code contributions to the sampled projects but episodically authored
   patches (or pull requests) that increased software coupling. Based on
   further investigation, I suggest a multiple-fluid-container view that
   accommodates software ecosystems in which multiple containers (multiple
   OSS projects) co-evolve with each container (each OSS project) readily
   accessible.},

Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {7},
Pages = {65913-65933},
Abstract = {The increase in the number of open source software (OSS) users have
   drawn attention to improving usability. Usability is a clear concept
   that encompassing both task and user characteristics as well as
   functionality. Usability is an essential factor that affects user
   acceptance and OSS sustainability, which is considered as the key to the
   success of the OSS. To some extent, usability is one concern of the
   larger issue of system acceptability and sustainability. Therefore,
   usability is an important factor that needs to be considered since the
   software that is not usable is not going to be sustainable. The
   objective of this paper is to review researchers' efforts to improve,
   investigate, and evaluate the usability factor that may affect the OSS
   acceptability and sustainability and map the research scenery from the
   articles into a comprehensible structured taxonomy, which would help the
   researchers to identify different research gaps of this field. A survey
   of the usability in OSS conducted and 6033 studies identified by a
   search in four scholarly databases using a query that includes the
   keywords (usability or learnability or efficiency or satisfaction) and
   (open source software or OSS). A total of 46 studies are selected. By
   manually searching in ACM, Springer, and Google Scholar five other
   studies identified, and thus a total of 51 studies were the final set
   that includes in this paper. Based on research topics, a taxonomy
   created and divided into four principal categories which improve OSS
   usability, analyze OSS usability, evaluate OSS usability, and select and
   adopt OSS. A comprehensive overview and synthesis of these categories
   are presented as well. This paper contributes to identifying the
   possible opportunities and gaps for enabling the participation of
   interested researchers in this research area. And give possibilities for
   extending the use of usability research and practices to create more
   sustainable software. Also, helps in selecting suitable OSS among the
   alternatives.},

   well as the supply and demand of OSS professionals in the South African
   environment are investigated. This research can also provide businesses
   with an objective tool with which to help them evaluate OSS in their
   businesses.
   The results depict a growing trend in the use of OSS in South Africa.
   Only a small percentage of SA organisations have significant usage
   levels of OSS, with the majority of OSS users planning on maintaining
   their current levels of usage. It was observed that 67\% of non-OSS
   users are considering OSS use in the future, with the majority of these
   respondents having made preliminary investigations into the viability of
   OSS use.
   Further results show an association between the size of an organisation
   and the usage of OSS, with smaller and medium sized enterprises using
   OSS more than larger organisations. It was also observed that the
   majority of training institutes perceive that there will be a growth in
   demand for OSS training within the next 5 years, which correlates with
   findings that the number of training workshops and institutes are
   increasing to accommodate the increase in demand.},

   identified in the theory and it has been realized that the factors
   affecting the adoption of OSS varies country to country. The objective
   of this research is to provide a framework for OSS adoption for local

   ultimately work to improve software usability. Importantly, these
   activities are typically based on close, direct interpersonal
   relationships between developers and their core users, a group of users
   who closely follow the project and provide high quality, respected
   feedback. These relationships, along with positive feedback from other
   users, generate social rewards that serve as the primary motivations for
   attending to usability issues on a day-to-day basis. These findings
   suggest a need to reconceptualize HCI methods to better fit this culture
   of practice and its corresponding value system.},

Abstract = {The open-source software (OSS) movement is often analogized as a
   commons, where products are developed by and consumed in an open
   community. However, does a larger commons automatically beget success or
   does the phenomenon fall prey to the tragedy of the commons? This
   research forwards and empirically investigates the curvilinear
   relationship between developers and OSS project quality and a project's
   download volume. Using segmented regression on over 12,000 SourceForge
   OSS projects, findings suggest an inflection point in the number of
   contributing developers on download volume - suggesting increasing and
   diminishing returns to scale from adding developers to OSS projects.
   Findings support the economic principle of the tragedy of the commons, a
   concept where an over-allocated (large number) of developers, even in an
   open-source environment, can lead to resource mismanagement and reduce
   the benefit of a public good, i.e. the OSS project.},

Abstract = {The need to establish a more complete and far-reaching Europe,
   strengthening its intellectual, cultural, social, scientific and
   technological dimensions was emphasized in the Bologna Declaration,
   signed by the European Ministers of Education in 1999. Since then,
   European universities have been involved in the development of the
   so-called European Higher Education Area (EHEA), including the adoption
   of a system of easily readable and comparable degrees, the European
   co-operation in quality assurance, and the promotion of mobility and
   European dimension in higher education.
   In this framework, the use of Free Open Source Software (FOSS) could
   provide several advantages, related to both the freedom given to users
   and the strengths of its peer-to-peer development model. In fact, some
   of the most outstanding characteristics of the FOSS (free, democratic,
   sustainable and technologically competitive educational model,
   cooperative and competitive relationships,.) result to be coincident
   with the main aims of the European Higher Education Area.
   In this paper we describe the role that this Free Open Source Software
   could play in the University context, also providing some statistical
   evidence about FOSS penetration and its recent evolution. Furthermore,
   since the implementation of the new university degrees can be considered
   as a ``break point{''}, we briefly describe our FOSS experiences at the
   University of Oviedo, involving Statistics and Econometrics.
   Finally, we summarize the conclusions and describe the main challenges
   that FOSS must face during the coming years.},

Title = {A dynamic perspective on software modularity in open source software
   (OSS) development: A configurational approach},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND ORGANIZATION},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {34},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {To reduce technical and task interdependencies, modularization has been
   considered important in OSS development. However, the existing
   literature implicitly takes a static view that software structure and
   organizational structure are established early on and change slowly over
   time, if at all. Such a view does not fully reflect the complex and
   dynamic nature of software development and tends to overlook the role
   played by human agents as they ramp involvement up and down over time.
   This study considers that coordination practice plays an important role
   in altering technical interdependencies in OSS development. This study
   investigates coordination practices that result in changes in software
   coupling-in particular, increases in software coupling. This study
   automatically analyzes the code in 72 software releases and 1033 task
   episodes of three successful OSS projects-GNU grep, IPython, and
   Scikit-image. This study takes a fine-grained practice-oriented
   perspective that views the way that the work is done as constituting the
   organization. In our conceptualization, OSS contributors use a
   configuration of multiple organizational elements, enacted and varying
   across specific episodes of practice. In line with this perspective,
   this study takes a configurational approach, uses fuzzy-set qualitative
   comparative analysis (fsQCA) to analyze episodes that led to decreases,
   no changes, and increases in software coupling during the inter-release
   periods in which the level of software coupling increased significantly,
   which we call focal period. We find that co-work involving multiple
   individuals tends to result in code that adds technical dependencies
   (increases in software coupling) during the focal period. To illustrate
   this beyond our fuzzy-set analysis, we present and discuss three
   episodes in narrative detail. The fine-grained, configurational analysis
   in this study supports the idea that the organizing process is ongoing
   enactment. In this study, OSS systems are an amalgam of code that builds
   up in different episodes each possibly different organizational
   configurations, rather than thinking of the OSS systems or projects as
   static or singular.},

Abstract = {The value of teamwork is being recognized by project owners, resulting
   in an increased acknowledgement of collaboration among developers in
   software engineering. A good understanding of how developers work
   together could positively impact software development practices. In this
   paper, we investigate the collaboration habits of developers in project
   files by leveraging the World of Code (WoC) dataset and GitHub API. We
   first identify the collaboration level of developers within the project
   files, such as the source, test, documentation, and build files, using
   the Author Cross Entropy (ACE). From the results we find out that test
   files report the highest degree of collaboration among the developers,
   perhaps because collaboration is critical to ensure convergence of
   functionality tests. Furthermore, the source code files show the least
   degree of collaboration, perhaps because of code ownership and the
   complexity and difficulty in code modification. Secondly, given the
   widespread usage of the Python programming language, we investigate the
   Python code tokens that are more prone to change and collaboration. Our
   findings offer insights into the specific project files and Python code
   tokens that developers typically collaborate on in the opensource
   community. This information can be used by researchers and developers to
   enhance existing collaboration platforms and tools.},

Abstract = {Collaboration through open superposition describes the dominant work
   orchestration mechanism observed in free (Libre) and open-source (FLOSS)
   software, wherein the software development occurs by the sequential
   layering of individual tasks. This work orchestration mechanism is
   different from the traditional idea of software development, where the
   focus is toward cowork and concurrent development facilitated by a
   modular software design architecture. Our study theorizes and examines
   the motivational mechanisms that operate within superposed work
   structures to influence the success of FLOSS projects. We also unearth
   the contextual conditions that may limit the influence of the superposed
   nature of work on FLOSS project success. Furthermore, given the
   increasing use of FLOSS by organizations, we investigate the
   specificities brought to these motivational mechanisms when FLOSS
   projects are owned by organizations. The results from our analysis of
   over 6,500 FLOSS projects hosted on GitHub support a nonlinear
   relationship between the degree of superposition and the success of the
   FLOSS project. Moreover, we find that the type of ownership moderates
   this nonlinear relationship such that (1) organizational ownership
   mitigates the influence of the degree of superposition on the success of
   the project and that (2) under organizational ownership, the optimal
   degree of superposition (the point at which the success of the project
   is at a maximum) is lower than for individual-owned projects. This
   research advances our understanding of work structures, motivation, and
   organizational participation in FLOSS environments by describing the
   influence of task structures on the success of projects. The study also
   provides FLOSS practitioners with valuable insights for modeling project
   task structures to facilitate their success.},

Abstract = {The goal of our research is to find better ways for assessing the impact

   of the simulation model, the process quality attributes of the open
   source software Spring Framework with varying change effects was
   evaluated. The project effort, delivery time, productivity, schedule,
   and product quality are impacted as a result of changes. Three different
   process improvement strategies were evaluated to help decision-makers
   choose most cost-effective improvement strategies. The simulation models

Title = {Industry requirements for FLOSS governance tools to facilitate the use

Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {158},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Virtually all software products incorporate free/fibre and open source
   software (FLOSS) components. However, ungoverned use of FLOSS components
   can result in legal and financial risks, and risks to a firm's
   intellectual property. To avoid these risks, companies must govern their
   FLOSS use through open source governance processes and by following
   industry best practices. A particular challenge is license compliance.
   To manage the complexity of governance and compliance, companies should
   use tools and well-defined processes. This paper investigates and
   presents industry requirements for FLOSS governance tools, followed by
   an evaluation of the suggested requirements.
   We chose eleven companies with an advanced understanding of open source
   governance and interviewed their FLOSS governance experts to derive a
   theory of industry requirements for tooling. We extended our previous
   work adding the requirement category on the architecture model for
   software products.
   We then analyzed the features of leading governance tools and used this
   analysis to evaluate two categories of our theory: FLOSS license
   scanning and FLOSS components in product bills of materials. The result
   is a list of FLOSS governance requirements. For practical relevance, we
   cast our theory as a requirements specification for FLOSS governance
   tools. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {The use of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS), a subset of Information

   deploying software requires total cost that goes beyond the initial
   purchase price. Total cost is a silent issue of FOSS and can only be
   evaluated in the particular environment in which it is adopted, in this
   case Kerala, India, fora state-level FOSS project called IT@School. This
   project is one of the largest deployments of free open source software
   FOSS-based ICT education in the world and impacts 6 million students and
   200,000 teachers every year. This study analyzes the perception of 43
   senior FOSS implementation project officials. It details how FOSS was
   introduced and reports on major challenges and how those challenges were
   overcome in a secondary educational setting in India. Email interviews,
   document analysis, and online case studies were used to collect the
   data. The lack of adequate resources to train the teachers was the
   single biggest challenge in the adoption of FOSS. The emerging
   strategies for efficient FOSS implementation could be used in other

Abstract = {Globally, the acceptance of Open Source Software (OSS) varies among the
   users of a company. Despite the substantive software, social, and
   infrastructure-related implications of OSS acceptance, the research on
   the acceptance of OSS across organizations inhabitants remains
   surprisingly limited. To propose a model for the acceptance of OSS;
   investigate the influence of the OSS characteristics, UTAUT constructs,
   and infrastructure factors on the acceptance of open source software
   system. It also examines the validity of UTAUT in the open source
   software context. Quantitative design has been used following the
   distribution of questionnaire among a sample of 255 individuals employed
   at public and private organizations (172 males and 83 females). Software
   quality, software interoperability, and software security had a
   significant impact on the performance expectancy (PE) (beta = 0.445, P <
   0.001), (beta = 0.302, P < 0.001), (beta = 0.139, P < 0.05),
   respectively. Moreover, PE, cost, facilitating conditions, social
   influence SI and self-efficacy had a notable impact on the behavioral
   intention (beta = 0.275, P < 0.05), (beta = 0.229, P < 0.01), (beta =
   0.136, P < 0.01), (beta = 0.220, P < 0.01) and (beta = 0.174, P < 0.01)
   respectively. A new path appears to exist between EE (effort expectancy)
   and PE (beta = 0.215, P < 0.01). The outcomes indicated that users
   perceive that OSS user-friendliness must be upgraded for optimizing its
   benefits. It showed that performance expectancy, effort expectancy,
   social influence, self-efficacy, software security, software quality,
   software interoperability, and software cost are important indicators in
   the acceptance and implementation of OSS. Further research can be
   conducted in organizations to observe the implementation of OSS and its
   effectiveness.},

Abstract = {Since free/libre open source software (FLOSS) promotes collaboration and
   contributions from different parties in software production and
   innovation processes, it can create a unique opportunity for developing
   countries, by generating an innovative capability in software
   technology. To benefit from this opportunity, it is important to
   understand the strategic factors and future trends that affect the
   development of an efficient FLOSS economy in developing countries.
   This paper aims to examine the strategic factors and future trends that
   are likely to affect the development and deployment of FLOSS in Turkey.
   Based on the internal and external factors identified through the
   practice of technological foresight, a SWOT analysis will be carried out
   to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats for
   Turkey in creating a competitive software industry that can benefit from
   the advantages of FLOSS. Accordingly, with regard to the required
   technical infrastructure, an innovative/competitive business climate,
   skilled human resources and support for institutional structures, policy
   suggestions are outlined here that could be usefully implemented by
   government, industry and universities. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

   that gender bias theories in social sciences cannot help us effectively

   toward finding new measures for gender bias in OSS. This paper attempts
   to employ linguistic theories to identify different collaboration

   review linguistic literature on diversity and online collaboration, then
   we apply linguistic theories from our literature reviews to a random

Abstract = {Toxic and unhealthy conversations during the developer's communication
   may reduce the professional harmony and productivity of Free and Open

   communication with another person may hamper future communication and
   collaboration. Research also suggests that toxicity disproportionately
   impacts newcomers, women, and other participants from marginalized
   groups. Therefore, toxicity is a barrier to promote diversity, equity,
   and inclusion. Since the occurrence of toxic communications is not
   uncommon among FOSS communities and such communications may have serious
   repercussions, the primary objective of my proposed dissertation is to
   automatically identify and mitigate toxicity during developers' textual
   interactions. On this goal, I aim to: i) build an automated toxicity
   detector for Software Engineering (SE) domain, ii) identify the notion
   of toxicity across demographics, and iii) analyze the impacts of
   toxicity on the outcomes of Open Source Software (OSS) projects.},

Abstract = {In today's global knowledge-based economy, knowledge, its creation,
   accumulation and distribution, through institutions of human,
   organizational and social capital, plays an increasingly crucial role as
   the key factor in innovation and economic development. The production,
   distribution and processing of knowledge (especially scientific and
   technological) is increasingly performed within the domain of
   computational information and communication technologies (ICTs). Even
   though there is an asymmetric distribution of ICT resources,
   particularly between developed and developing countries the emergence of
   Free Open Source Software (FOSS) is a means to bridge the `digital
   divide'. This paper examines the use of FOSS for mapping and measuring
   the National System of Innovation (NSI) in Ghana and generating evidence
   based policy. Findings indicate the value of FOSS in mapping and
   measuring for evidence based policy and the crucial role of ICT in the
   NSI.},

Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {An open source software (OSS) ecosystem refers to an OSS development
   community composed of many software projects and developers contributing
   to these projects. The projects and developers co-evolve in an
   ecosystem. To keep healthy evolution of such OSS ecosystems, there is a
   need of attracting and retaining developers, particularly project
   leaders and core developers who have major impact on the project and the
   whole team. Therefore, it is important to figure out the factors that
   influence developers' chance to evolve into project leaders and core
   developers. To identify such factors, we conducted a case study on the
   GNOME ecosystem. First, we collected indicators reflecting developers'
   subjective willingness to contribute to the project and the project
   environment that they stay in. Second, we calculated such indicators
   based on the GNOME dataset. Then, we fitted logistic regression models
   by taking as independent variables the resulting indicators after
   eliminating the most collinear ones, and taking as a dependent variable
   the future developer role (the core developer or project leader). The
   results showed that part of such indicators (e.g., the total number of
   projects that a developer joined) of subjective willingness and project
   environment significantly influenced the developers' chance to evolve
   into core developers and project leaders. With different validation
   methods, our obtained model performs well on predicting developmental
   core developers, resulting in stable prediction performance (0.770,
   F-value).},

Abstract = {Purpose Free and open-source software (FOSS) has been used worldwide
   because of the advantages of user control, cost-saving, flexibility,
   openness, freedom, more security and better stability. The purpose of
   this study is to explore the status quo of educational application of
   FOSS and the trends from international perspectives and its implications
   for higher education in Hong Kong. Design/methodology/approach The
   method of cluster analysis was used in this study. The Web of Science
   database was used as the data source and all relevant literature for the
   year 2010-2020 on the theme of ``FOSS{''} was collected for analysis.
   The information visualization software CiteSpace was used for citation
   visualization analysis, revealing the research results of FOSS
   worldwide, including hot spots and development trends. Findings This
   paper found that FOSS has become an important research area and is
   playing an important role in the reform and development of education.
   Meanwhile, the development and application of FOSS have regional
   imbalances and strong differentiation, including the educational sector.
   The paper also found that although FOSS has entered the stage of
   interdisciplinary development, the research and development of FOSS in
   the field of education is insufficient, which poses a huge challenge to
   decision-makers, teachers and students. Originality/value Implications
   for higher education in Hong Kong including: attach importance to and
   vigorously promote FOSS research and practice to benefit more teachers
   and students; teachers and students need to be trained for acquiring the
   awareness and skills of FOSS applications and formulate different
   strategies; the government should provide greater support to formulate
   and implement a short and middle-term development plan to facilitate the
   application of FOSS; and Hong Kong higher education institutions may
   strengthen exchanges and cooperation with counterparts around the world
   to jointly promote the development of FOSS. It is hoped that the
   findings will provide a reference for the study and application of FOSS
   in higher education in Hong Kong.},

Title = {Open source software ecosystems: A Systematic mapping},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {91},
Pages = {160-185},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Context: Open source software (OSS) and software ecosystems (SECOs) are
   two consolidated research areas in software engineering. OSS influences
   the way organizations develop, acquire, use and commercialize software.
   SECOs have emerged as a paradigm to understand dynamics and
   heterogeneity in collaborative software development. For this reason,
   SECOs appear as a valid instrument to analyze OSS systems. However,
   there are few studies that blend both topics together.
   Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the current state of
   the art in OSS ecosystems (OS-SECOs) research, specifically: (a) what
   the most relevant definitions related to OSSECOs are; (b) what the
   particularities of this type of SECO are; and (c) how the knowledge
   about OSSECO is represented.
   Method: We conducted a systematic mapping following recommended
   practices. We applied automatic and manual searches on different sources
   and used a rigorous method to elicit the keywords from the research
   questions and selection criteria to retrieve the final papers. As a
   result, 82 papers were selected and evaluated. Threats to validity were
   identified and mitigated whenever possible.
   Results: The analysis allowed us to answer the research questions. Most
   notably, we did the following: (a) identified 64 terms related to the
   OSSECO and arranged them into a taxonomy; (b) built a genealogical tree
   to understand the genesis of the OSSECO term from related definitions;
   (c) analyzed the available definitions of SECO in the context of OSS;
   and (d) classified the existing modelling and analysis techniques of
   OSSECOs.
   Conclusion: As a summary of the systematic mapping, we conclude that
   existing research on several topics related to OSSECOs is still scarce
   (e.g., modelling and analysis techniques, quality models, standard
   definitions, etc.). This situation calls for further investigation
   efforts on how organizations and OSS communities actually understand
   OSSECOs. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Pages = {116-135},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Governance provides the authoritative framework for coordinating
   activities in open source development. Prior studies of open source
   governance have largely focused on its changing nature over time. In
   this work, we argue that the nature of governance varies across open
   source communities, and, in its evolution, multiple traces of authority
   may co-exist. We propose that such multiplicity can be understood by
   close examination of the authoritative structures embedded in
   coordination processes. We collected eight years of data on the
   coordination related to version control of the Linux kernel. Drawing on
   in-depth qualitative analysis, we investigate how coordination processes
   with different authoritative structures come together in the governance
   of open source software. We trace four coordination processes
   (autocratic clearing, oligarchic recursion, federated self-governance,
   and meritocratic idea-testing), each grounded in different authoritative
   structures (autocracy, oligarchy, federation, meritocracy) with their
   own form of legitimation. We offer a two-fold contribution in this
   paper. First, we enhance the open source governance literature by
   advancing a new theoretical perspective in which governance is seen as a
   configuration of coordination processes. Configurations give
   complementary support and are a source of tension and renewal. Second,
   we articulate a view on the conceptual relationship between governance
   and coordination where these concepts are understood as a duality, both
   working together to give rise to efficient and dynamic organizing in
   open source.},

Abstract = {Engaging students in learning is often a challenge. It is even more so

   competitive games. Students naturally develop their interest in the
   materials and are immersed into learning as they compete with each other
   or against themselves in the game. To be effective, the game itself
   should be fun and engaging as well as accommodating the intended
   learning objectives. Although many people are aware of how effective GBL
   can be, it is overwhelming for a beginner to master the tools and
   techniques quickly to have GBL implemented in a classroom environment.
   We recognize this lack of guidance in the existing GBL literature and

Abstract = {Software ecosystems, collections of projects developed by the same
   community, are among the most complex artefacts constructed by humans.
   Collaborative development of open source software (OSS) has witnessed an
   exponential increase in two decades. Our hypothesis is that software
   ecosystems bear many similarities with natural ecosystems. While natural
   ecosystems have been the subject of study for many decades, research on
   software ecosystems is more recent. For this reason, the ECOS research
   project aims to determine whether and how selected ecological models and
   theories from natural ecosystems can be adapted and adopted to
   understand and better explain how OSS projects (akin to biological
   species) evolve, and to determine what are the main factors that drive
   the success or popularity of these projects. Expressed in biological
   terms, we wish to use knowledge on the evolution of natural ecosystems
   to provide support aiming to optimize the fitness of OSS projects, and
   to increase the resistance and resilience of OSS ecosystems.},

Abstract = {Digital social innovation is important for addressing various social
   needs, especially from those who are economically disadvantaged. For
   instance, open source software (OSS) is developed by mass collaboration
   on digital communities to provide software users free alternatives to
   commercial products. OSS is particularly valuable to meet the needs of
   numerous disadvantaged users for whom proprietary software is not
   affordable. While OSS projects are lack of formal organizational
   structure, project leaders play a significant role in initiating and
   managing these projects and eventually, influencing the degree to which
   the developed software is used and liked by users. Drawing on resource
   dependence theory, we investigate the impacts of two team-level
   characteristics of OSS project leaders (ie, size and tenure) on how well
   the developed software can address users' needs, with regard to the
   quantity of software being used by users and the quality of software to
   users' satisfaction. Further, from a resource dependence perspective, we
   examine the moderating role of project leaders' network ties in shaping
   the contingency of these effects. By using a large-scale dataset from 43
   048 OSS development projects in SourceForge community, we find empirical
   evidence corroborating our theory. Taken together, our findings suggest
   the boundary-spanning role of project leaders in developing digital
   social innovation.},

Title = {Comprehensive assessment of open source software ecosystem health},
Journal = {INTERNET OF THINGS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {22},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Recent surveys expose that the use of Open Source Software (OSS) is
   increasingly becoming a need for organizations in their development
   projects. However, deciding a proper OSS to be adopted or to contribute
   to its development is a complex and error-prone task. Analyzing the OSS
   ecosystem (OSSECO) health may help providing information about: (1) the
   OSS itself (number of commits, days after the last release, etc.); and
   (2) their main actors (number of contributors, partners, etc.). There
   exist proposals that go further and provide aggregated high-level
   indicators (e.g. visibility as an aggregation of number of community
   events, number of partners, and other metrics). Nevertheless, there is a
   lack of useful OSSECO analysis tools to ease the decision making on
   which OSSECO has the health required by a potential OSS adopter or
   contributor. In this work, we provide OSS-CARE (OSSeCo heAlthy monitoR
   and analysEr), an OSS-independent, fully automatic, and real-time
   framework to assess OSSECO's health. OSS-CARE supports defining the
   ecosystem health objectives of potential OSS adopters, OSS contributors,
   and even OSS managers to inspect their provided health. These objectives
   are defined based on a well-established model characterizing health
   metrics that can be potentially aggregated by using a Bayesian network
   technique. Moreover, the integrated monitoring and analysis components
   perform an automated assessment of OSSECO's health by checking the
   fulfillment of the required health objectives. Furthermore, the result
   is shown in an appealing dashboard that may ease the complex decision
   making of which OSS to choose.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is probably, the most iconic implementation
   of Open Innovation business paradigm, due its capacity to concentrate
   both technical benefits and business advantages. Over time,
   organizations face the OSS adoption challenge strengthening mainly its
   internal and technical elements. However, the rapid changes on business
   dynamics, and the comprehensiveness and fast development of open
   paradigms, show us that a new set of conditions must be satisfied to
   reach a successfully OSS adoption. These conditions, considered as a
   critical success factors, involve a wide range of resources, capacities
   and skills, both in internal and external scopes. Hence, although
   adopter organizations should be better prepared to face the challenges
   related to collaborative innovation, they do not have a systematic
   approach to value its readiness level to face the adoption challenges.
   In this context, the present research work proposes a model to assess
   the organizational readiness, considering the adopter as part of a live
   business ecosystem, where the relationships originated on co-development
   with developers' communities, have mutual business impact at strategic,
   tactic, and operative level.},

Abstract = {Even though the use of Open Source Software (OSS) might seem paradoxical
   in Defense environments, this has been proven to be wrong. The use of
   OSS does not harm security; on the contrary, it enhances it. Even with
   some drawbacks, OSS is highly reliable and maintained by a huge software
   community, thus decreasing implementation costs and increasing
   reliability. Moreover, it allows military software engineers to move
   away from proprietary applications and single-vendor contracts.
   Furthermore, it decreases the cost of long-term development and
   lifecycle management, besides avoiding vendor's lock in. Nevertheless,
   deploying OSS deserves an appropriate organization of its life cycle and
   maintenance, which has a relevant impact on the project's budget that
   cannot be overseen. In this paper, we will describe some of the major
   trends in OSS in Defense environments. The community for OSS has a
   pivotal role, since it is the core development unit. With Agile and the
   newest DevOps methodologies, government officials could leverage OSS
   capabilities, decreasing the Design (or Technical) Debt. Software for
   Defense purposes could perform better, increase the number of the
   releases, enhance coordination through the different IT Departments (and
   the community), and increase release automation, decreasing the
   probability of errors.},

Abstract = {Free/Open Source software is a kind of software whose source code is
   available for comprehension, modification and re-distribution. This kind
   of software has increased in popularity in recent years and becoming an
   interesting topic for research. Most Free/Open Source software is
   produced through the facilitation of Free/Open Source Hosting (FOSPHost)
   sites and investigations into these sites may yield results that have
   theoretical and practical significance. Open source software is becoming
   the most interesting `new' phenomenon of the entire information
   technology landscape, generating a level of interest similar to that of
   the first moments of the Internet The study of the possibilities and
   limits of open source software at the enterprise is the main concern.
   The research work analyzes the history of the open source movement,
   describes the open source community and collaboration model, analyzes
   the open source development process, describes business models based on
   open source software, analyzes possible cost savings and presents case
   studies of popular open source projects. Recommendations are presented,
   how companies and organizations might benefit from open source software
   and in which cases it should be avoided, because the hidden costs will
   not pay off the license costs savings. The impact of open source
   technology is expected to be quite noticeable in the software industry,
   and in society as a whole. It allows for novel development models, which
   have already been demonstrated to be especially well suited to
   efficiently take advantage of the work of developers spread across all
   corners of the planet.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) forms an infrastructure on which numerous

   was done to investigate central projects such as Linux kernel but we
   have only a limited understanding of how the periphery of the larger OSS
   ecosystem is interconnected through technical dependencies, code
   sharing, and knowledge flows. We aim to close this gap by a) creating a
   nearly complete and rapidly updateable collection of version control
   data for FLOSS projects; b) by cleaning, correcting, and augmenting the
   data to measure several types of dependencies among code, developers,
   and projects; c) by creating models that rely on the resulting supply
   chains to investigate structural and dynamic properties of the entire
   OSS. The current implementation is capable of being updated each month,
   occupies over 300Tb of disk space with 1.5B commits and 12B git objects.
   Highly accurate algorithms to correct identity data and extract
   dependencies from the source code are used to characterize the current
   structure of OSS and the way it has evolved. In particular, models of
   technology spread demonstrate the implicit factors developers use when
   choosing software components. We expect the resulting research platform
   will both spur investigations on how the huge periphery in OSS both
   sustains and is sustained by the central OSS projects and, as a result,
   will increase resiliency and effectiveness of the OSS.},

   communities around open-source software projects remains a tedious and

   application that enables project developers to gain awareness of the
   status and development of the project communities is desirable. In this
   paper, we present MyCommunity, a web-based online application system to
   automatically extract communication-based community structures from
   social coding platforms such as GitHub. Based on the detected community
   structures, the system analyzes and visualizes the community evolution
   history of a project with a set of semantic-rich events, and quantify
   the strength of community evolution with respect to different events
   with a series of indexes. Built-in support to quantitative analysis and
   machine learning tasks based on the quantitative evolutionary events are
   provided. We demonstrate the usefulness of the system by presenting its
   ability in predicting project success or failure with the community
   evolution features. The results suggest the system achieves a prediction
   accuracy of 88.5\% with commonly available machine learning models.},

   early 1980's and although they have been nuanced, augmented and

   practices have changed dramatically since then, not least due to the
   rise and popularity of open source software (OSS). OSS is written
   collaboratively with the process and products publically observable,
   whereas the original laws were derived based on a very different
   context. The question then arises if Lehman's laws apply to modern day
   OSS software. The GitHub repository is the most comprehensive source of
   OSS projects and is used here to obtain data on how OSS projects have
   evolved. This work uses one hundred open source projects hosted on
   GitHub. Metrics are obtained via the provided API, using a purpose-built
   workbench and several of Lehman's laws are evaluated using the data
   available. Coupled with a critique of how judgements can be made from
   the data available, the study has discovered that the evidence does not
   support many of the laws. An important proviso with such an approach is
   the limitation on what data can be extracted and/or inferred from the
   GitHub API. Nonetheless, there is enough of a challenge made to the laws
   to warrant further study and a need to revisit some of the laws in the
   context of open source development.},

Abstract = {In this paper, we seek to advance the state-of-the-art in code evolution
   analysis research and practice by statistically analyzing, interpreting,
   and formally describing the evolution of code lexicon in Open Source
   Software (OSS). The underlying hypothesis is that, similar to natural
   language, code lexicon falls under the remit of evolutionary principles.
   Therefore, adapting theories and statistical models of natural language
   evolution to code is expected to provide unique insights into software
   evolution. Our analysis in this paper is conducted using 2,000 OSS
   systems sampled from a broad range of application domains. Our results
   show that a) OSS projects exhibit a significant shift in their
   linguistic identity over time, b) different syntactic structures of code
   lexicon evolve differently, c) different factors of OSS development and
   different maintenance activities impact code lexicon differently. These
   insights lay out a preliminary foundation for modeling the linguistic
   history of OSS projects. In the long run, this foundation will be
   utilized to provide support for basic software maintenance and program
   comprehension activities, and gain new theoretical insights into the
   complex interplay between linguistic change and various system and human
   aspects of OSS development.},

Abstract = {Decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) have found use in the
   governance of open source software (OSS) projects. However, the
   governance of an OSS producing DAO should match the particularities of
   OSS production while also overcoming the existing challenges of
   decentralized governance. The existing decentralized governance
   frameworks do not include all the governance activities of OSS projects.
   Therefore, this study presents a governance framework for DAOs that
   produce OSS. The framework is built upon a total of 34 articles on DAO
   and OSS governance. The framework was evaluated in three leading DAOs
   that produce OSS. The evaluation underscores the significance of the
   framework and proves the potential of the systematic categorization of
   governance mechanisms. Finally, we list emerging governance practices in
   various governance domains in this developing field.},

Abstract = {Local communities in Germany are under great pressure to modernize their
   services: high depth rate, increasing expectations concerning the
   quality of the services, socio-demographic change, environmental issues,
   regional competition-to name only a few of the challenges. In a society
   based on a federal structure and the principle of subsidiarity, it is
   almost natural to demand a vivid community with active citizens. Today,
   with the advent of social media and the new channels of communication,
   the question is how to leverage the benefits of this concept for local
   issues. More precise: How can the competence of the citizens be
   activated to make conditions of living in the neighbourhoods more
   attractive? In this paper, we discuss technical requirements for an open
   government. The SAGA standard of the Federal German Government strongly
   supports the notion of open-source software. With OpenSAGA, we introduce
   a new, performant and SAGA-compliant framework for the implementation of
   web applications for e-Government. Consequently, OpenSAGA is the
   platform for an OpenGovernment Suite, an extended prototype for
   affordable and interoperable open government solutions.},

Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {The right to fork open source code is at the core of open source
   licensing. All open source licenses grant the right to fork their code,
   that is to start a new development effort using an existing code as its
   base. Thus, code forking represents the single greatest tool available
   for guaranteeing sustainability in open source software. In addition to
   bolstering program sustainability, code forking directly affects the
   governance of open source initiatives. Forking, and even the mere
   possibility of forking code, affects the governance and sustainability
   of open source initiatives on three distinct levels: software,
   community, and ecosystem. On the software level, the right to fork makes
   planned obsolescence, versioning, vendor lockin, end-of-support issues,
   and similar initiatives all but impossible to implement. On the
   community level, forking impacts both sustainability and governance
   through the power it grants the community to safeguard against
   unfavourable actions by corporations or project leaders. On the
   business-ecosystem level forking can serve as a catalyst for innovation
   while simultaneously promoting better quality software through natural
   selection. Thus, forking helps keep open source initiatives relevant and
   presents opportunities for the development and commercialization of
   current and abandoned programs.},

Abstract = {Firms increasingly rely on open source software for solving business
   problems and building mission-critical IT solutions. However, there are
   numerous issues associated with OSS, including its influence on the
   total cost of ownership (TCO) and supportability and upgradeability
   risks. While savings from obtaining a free copy of the software can be
   significant, software accounts for an average of 10\% of TCO, while the
   majority of the costs are associated with project staffing. OSS requires
   significant investment into staffing because it needs to be carefully
   selected, customized, and installed. In addition, global communities may
   gather and dissolve at their will, so guarantees of support, revision,
   and bug fixes are minimal. Yet companies can gain competitive advantage
   through an ability to customize software to address specific business
   issues and exercising control over development, revision schedules, and
   modifications. OSS is not a panacea from the rising software costs.
   Instead, it is a serious initiative that has benefits, disadvantages,

Journal = {SYMMETRY-BASEL},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {11},
Number = {2},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {In recent years, open-source software (OSS) development has grown, with
   many developers around the world working on different OSS projects. A
   variety of open-source software ecosystems have emerged, for instance,
   GitHub, StackOverflow, and SourceForge. One of the most typical
   social-programming and code-hosting sites, GitHub, has amassed numerous
   open-source-software projects and developers in the same virtual
   collaboration platform. Since GitHub itself is a large open-source
   community, it hosts a collection of software projects that are developed
   together and coevolve. The great challenge here is how to identify the
   relationship between these projects, i.e., project relevance.
   Software-ecosystem identification is the basis of other studies in the
   ecosystem. Therefore, how to extract useful information in GitHub and
   identify software ecosystems is particularly important, and it is also a
   research area in symmetry. In this paper, a Topic-based Project
   Knowledge Metrics Framework (TPKMF) is proposed. By collecting the
   multisource dataset of an open-source ecosystem, project-relevance
   analysis of the open-source software is carried out on the basis of
   software-ecosystem identification. Then, we used our Spectral Clustering
   algorithm based on Core Project (CP-SC) to identify software-ecosystem
   projects and further identify software ecosystems. We verified that most
   software ecosystems usually contain a core software project, and most
   other projects are associated with it. Furthermore, we analyzed the
   characteristics of the ecosystem, and we also found that interactive
   information has greater impact on project relevance. Finally, we
   summarize the Topic-based Project Knowledge Metrics Framework.},

Title = {A Tertiary Study on Open-Source Software Research},
Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {12},
Pages = {189952-189993},
Abstract = {Open-source software (OSS) development has become prominent in the
   software industry over the last 20 years. OSS has transformed how
   software is developed, distributed, and maintained. This increase in
   popularity has led to extensive research in various domains of OSS, such
   as evolution, adoption, community and development processes.With the
   passage of time the volume of academic studies increased in the area of
   OSS, including Systematic Literature Reviews (SLRs) and Systematic
   Mapping Studies (SMS), which have provided valuable insights into
   specific aspects of OSS. The OSS domain is vast, with many areas that
   are still under explored. The fragmented nature of the existing studies
   presents challenges for both researchers and practitioners in
   identifying comprehensive research trends, gaps, future directions, and
   the cohesive understanding of the broader trends within the field. The
   secondary studies synthesize the literature to highlight findings and
   gaps of an area. The fragmentation of OSS academic literature limits the
   ability of researchers to identify unexplored or under-researched areas.
   This also creates challenges for both practitioners and researchers, as
   they lack awareness of the best practices, tools, technologies, and
   methodologies in a OSS domain. This study is motivated by the need to
   consolidate the extensive research conducted in the OSS domain,
   providing a holistic view that can guide future investigations and
   practical applications. The rationale for conducting this research lies
   in the opportunity to aggregate and classify existing OSS research
   areas, topics, and future directions through a systematic tertiary
   study. By synthesizing the findings from secondary studies, this
   research aims to offer a meta-level understanding of the OSS field,
   uncovering overlooked areas and defining a research agenda. The
   systematic approach, guided by the established protocol of Kitchenham,
   ensures that the study is conducted rigorously, with a focus on
   comprehensiveness and reliability. Ultimately, this research seeks to
   contribute to the OSS community by highlighting key research areas that
   require further exploration, thereby advancing the field and supporting
   the continued growth and innovation within OSS development. A systematic
   tertiary study is performed to cover all the systematic secondary
   studies in the area of OSS. The guidelines of Kitchenham are used for
   designing the protocol. The protocol details the research objectives,
   scope, search strategy, data extraction, quality assessment and
   synthesis. The protocol is detailed in section three for transparency.
   We have identified seventy-four studies that consist of twenty-five SMS
   and forty-nine SLR. The literature is mapped to a published taxonomy of
   OSS by Aksulu and Wade, however, the future directions are thematically
   analyzed. The results of mapping show that the highest number of studies
   (forty-seven) are in the sub-category of ``OSS categorization/research
   agenda{''}, whereas eight studies are mapped to the subcategory ``OSS vs
   Proprietary{''}. Both of these sub-categories fall in the main category
   of ``Conceptual{''}. The second major work is in the ``OSS
   Production{''} category in the sub-categories of ``Communities{''}
   (ten), ``Process{''} (eight), ``User and Developer Motivation{''}
   (nine), and ``Self-Organization (Product and Community Evolution){''}
   (six). Seven studies are also mapped to the sub-category of ``Software
   Quality{''} in the main category of ``Performance Metrics{''}. Other
   categories have fewer studies mapped to them.
   The areas identified, thematically, for future directions are ``OSS
   contributors{''}, ``OSS development process{''}, ``OSS evolution and
   prediction{''}, ``use of OSS in different domains{''}, and ``OSS
   adoption/adaptation/integration{''}. The mapping between ``key research
   areas{''} of systematic secondary studies and ``taxonomy categories{''}
   shows that there is no or little research in some of the categories of
   taxonomy, having potential of future research. The future directions
   thematic analysis will also aid researchers and practitioners.},

Abstract = {Context: Relationships within open-source software ecosystems (OSSECO)
   emerge from the collaboration within the ecosystem. Power relations are
   present in this context whenever an entity has the power of making other
   entities act as it wants them to act. Therefore, these power relations
   could affect collaboration within an OSSECO. Objective: This research
   aims at investigating power relations, their benefits and challenges,
   and providing an understanding of them within OSSECO. The goal is to
   provide power relations forms description together with the power
   relations dynamics associated with them. Method: A systematic mapping
   study was conducted to extract information about power relations (forms,
   dynamics, benefits, and challenges) from previous studies. At the end,
   10 studies reporting power relations within OSSECO were selected. Next,
   the data extracted from those was analyzed to understand what power
   relations affect the OSSECO and how this happens. Based on the results,
   the power relation forms and dynamics within OSSECO are defined.
   Results: The systematic mapping study show that power relations are
   present and affect relationships and interactions within an OSSECO.
   Moreover, 5 power relations forms and 7 power relations dynamics within
   OSSECO are presented. Implications: Identifying power relations that
   might be present within an OSSECO would enable those who study or are
   members of the ecosystem's community to enhance power relations that
   support collaboration and to avoid those who can lead developers to
   leave the OSSECO.},

   Students' perceptions regarding the course are analyzed and compared
   with previous, related studies. Our results are positively aligned with

   effectiveness of combining TBL with OSS contributions. Additionally, our
   survey has shed light on the challenges that students encounter during
   their first contribution to OSS projects, highlighting the need for

   several measures to measure and improve the quality of a software
   solution throughout the development process. These measures assess the
   quality of different software attributes, such as product size,
   cohesion, coupling, and complexity. Researchers and practitioners use
   software metrics to understand and improve software solutions and the
   processes used to develop them. Determining the relationship between
   software metrics aids in clarifying practical issues with regard to the
   relationship between the quality of internal and external software
   attributes. We conducted an empirical study on two open source systems
   (JEDIT and ANT) to study the defectiveness Evolution in Open Source
   Software Systems. The result reveals that a good designed software has
   lesser defects and have high cohesion. Moreover the study also revealed
   that defects are higher in initial versions and most corrected errors
   are from major classes in initial version. Removal of defects also
   reveals that a good software is consistently improved and feed backs are
   important part of open source systems. (C) 2016 The Authors. Published

Abstract = {Most papers related to Open Source Software (OSS) discuss the
   development of OSS, licensing issues, and motivations of developers.
   Research in the area of customization of OSS is rare, however. The
   process after the deployment of an OSS within a company remains unknown.
   There is a danger that it is often unstructured and error-prone since
   OSS develops in a more complex way than proprietary software. Based on
   our literature study, modifications of open source code do occur also in
   organizations outside of the software industry. Customization of
   applications is more common than customization of infrastructure
   software in these organizations. Therefore, we examine the process of
   deployment and adaptation of an OSS application software over several
   update iterations in great detail. This examination shows that this
   process has similarities with the process of deployment of proprietary
   software but it also exhibits important differences. Based on this case
   study, we also suggest a process model for customization of OSS
   applications in user organizations.},

Abstract = {The increasing adoption of open source software (OSS) components in
   software systems introduces new quality risks and testing challenges.
   OSS components are developed and maintained by open communities and the
   fluctuation of community members and structures can result in
   instability of the software quality. Hence, an investigation is
   necessary to analyze the impact open community dynamics and the quality
   of the OSS, such as the level and trends in internal communications and
   content distribution. The analysis results provide inputs to drive
   selective testing for effective validation and verification of OSS
   components. The paper suggests an approach for monitoring community
   dynamics continuously, including communications like email and blogs,
   and repositories of bugs and fixes. Detection of patterns in the
   monitored behavior such as changes in traffic levels within and across
   clusters can be used in turn to drive testing efforts. Our proposal is
   demonstrated in the case of the XWiki OSS, a Java-based environment that
   allows for the storing of structured data and the execution of server
   side scripts within the wiki interface. We illustrate our concepts,
   methods and approach behind this approach for risk based testing of OSS.},

   without proprietary rights. Third, Open Source systems diffused in
   environments dominated by proprietary standards. The paper shows that

Abstract = {Irrespective of increased implementation of OSS in organizations, its
   impact on productivity remains a strategic challenge. Influenced by the
   ``creative elements{''} of OSS, individuals in organizations often
   forget that the end result of software implementation is to improve
   productivity, thereby creating a negative impression on OSS
   implementation strategy as a whole. In this study, we argue that fit
   between the individual's task, values and work demands can influence or
   hinder the sustained use of OSS. We explore how task-technology fit and
   two dimensions of person-organization fit (value-based fit and
   demand-ability fit) interact with each other to influence productivity
   performance. Using survey data, we find that congruence between the
   organization's OSS values and the individual user's OSS values
   (value-based fit), decreases productivity performance, whereas, fit
   between an individual's OSS skills and the organizational task demands
   (demandability fit), increases productivity performance. We discuss
   managerial implications and contributions of the findings.},

   algorithms through a set of plugins, specialized in retrieving specific
   metrics from text, gathering information about the software. These
   metrics are later used to infer knowledge about the software, and
   composed together to build reports that assess the quality of specific

   This paper discusses the motivations for this work, continues with a
   description of the toolkit implementation and design goals. This is
   followed by an example of its usage to process a software package, and

Abstract = {Nowadays open source software becomes highly popular and is of great

   software organization and retrieval, tagging is extensively used in open

   recommendation based on semantic graph), a novel approach to discovering
   and enriching tags of open source software. Firstly, we propose a
   semantic graph to model the semantic correlations between tags and the
   words in software descriptions. Then based on the graph, we design an
   effective algorithm to recommend tags for software. With comprehensive
   experiments on large-scale open source software datasets by comparing
   with several typical related works, we demonstrate the effectiveness and
   efficiency of our method in recommending proper tags.},

Abstract = {The proliferation of computer technology and the advent of the Internet
   have created many new relationships and problems that raise questions
   about traditional legal and economic principles. The development of
   ``open-source{''} or ``free{''} software is an example of this
   phenomenon. Unlike the traditional producers of computer software -
   Microsoft for example - open-source software is often developed by
   computer programmers from all over the world, each submitting
   contributions to the code, and distributed without charge or for a
   minimal fee. Open-source software is generally passed from programmer to
   programmer, with the understanding that improvements may be made, but
   that the improvements must be distributed freely, without any attempt to
   ``privatize{''} the program.
   The existence of such relationships among programmers raise several
   interesting questions. First, how do large-scale open-source projects
   come into being? One open-source project, the GNU/Linux operating
   system, even threatens the market share of Microsoft's operating systems
   - a feat that calls traditional economic theories on the operation of
   the firm into question. A more important question is whether the
   open-source model is sustainable and generalizable. Ultimately, one
   wonders what role the law will play in the open-source community - a
   community that seems to operate in the absence of traditional legal
   principles.
   In this article, which was introduced at the University of Illinois
   College of Law Symposium on Intellectual Property Challenges in the Next
   Century, Professor McGowan addresses these questions. Using the
   GNU/Linux operating system as a case study, he probes the organization
   of the open-source community and the philosophies of its leading members
   in order to understand how traditional firm models, intellectual
   property, and contract law might apply. Professor McCowan concludes by
   reviewing recent attempts by courts to impose traditional principles in
   computer software transaction disputes. Ultimately, it appears that the
   open-source community cannot be neatly categorized. Although many
   traditional firm theories - such as the formation of a hierarchy - and
   legal principles - such as copyright - do apply to the open-source
   model, these theories and principles are employed in creative ways not
   previously envisioned.},

Abstract = {Organizations and individuals can use open source software (OSS) for
   free, they can study its internal workings, and they can even fix it or
   modify it to make it suit their particular needs. These attributes make
   OSS an enticing technological choice for a company. Unfortunately,
   because most enterprises view technology as a proprietary
   differentiating element of their operation, little is known about the
   extent of OSS adoption in industry and the key drivers behind adoption
   decisions. In this article we examine factors and behaviors associated
   with the adoption of OSS and provide empirical findings through data
   gathered from the US Fortune-1000 companies. The data come from each
   company's web browsing and serving activities, gathered by sifting
   through more than 278 million web server log records and analyzing the
   results of thousands of network probes. We show that the adoption of OSS
   in large US companies is significant and is increasing over time through
   a low-churn transition, advancing from applications to platforms. Its
   adoption is a pragmatic decision influenced by network effects. It is
   likelier in larger organizations and those with many less productive
   employees, and is associated with IT and knowledge-intensive work and

Title = {Hierarchical and Hybrid Organizational Structures in Open-source
   Software Projects: A Longitudinal Study},
Journal = {ACM TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING AND METHODOLOGY},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {32},
Number = {4},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Despite the absence of a formal process and a central
   command-and-control structure, developer organization in open-source
   software (OSS) projects are far from being a purely random process.
   Prior work indicates that, over time, highly successful OSS projects
   develop a hybrid organizational structure that comprises a hierarchical
   part and a non-hierarchical part. This suggests that hierarchical
   organization is not necessarily a global organizing principle and that a
   fundamentally different principle is at play below the lowest positions
   in the hierarchy. Given the vast proportion of developers are in the
   non-hierarchical part, we seek to understand the interplay between these
   two fundamentally differently organized groups, how this hybrid
   structure evolves, and the trajectory individual developers take through
   these structures over the course of their participation. We conducted a
   longitudinal study of the full histories of 20 popular OSS projects,
   modeling their organizational structures as networks of developers
   connected by communication ties and characterizing developers' positions
   in terms of hierarchical (sub)structures in these networks. We observed
   a number of notable trends and patterns in the subject projects: (1)
   hierarchy is a pervasive structural feature of developer networks of OSS
   projects; (2) OSS projects tend to form hybrid organizational
   structures, consisting of a hierarchical and a non-hierarchical part;
   and (3) the positional trajectory of a developer starts loosely
   connected in the non-hierarchical part and then tightly integrate into
   the hierarchical part, which is associated with the acquisition of
   experience (tenure), in addition to coordination and coding activities.
   Our study (a) provides a methodological basis for further investigations
   of hierarchy formation, (b) suggests a number of hypotheses on prevalent
   organizational patterns and trends in OSS projects to be addressed in
   further work, and (c) may ultimately guide the governance of
   organizational structures.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) communities are often international, bringing
   together people from diverse regions with different linguistic and
   cultural backgrounds. National user groups can bolster these
   international communities by convening local events, championing the
   software to peers, welcoming and onboarding new contributors, raising
   money to support the broader community, and collecting important
   information on user's needs. The open source community-led software
   DSpace has had great success encouraging the creation of national user
   groups; in the UK, North America, and Germany, the Groups have been
   active for many years. However, it was in 2018, thanks to a renewed
   focus on international engagement and more diverse representation of the
   global community in governance groups, that the national communities
   entered into a new phase: 15 new national User Groups have been formed
   all over the world since then, while the German user group evolved into
   the ``DSpace-Konsortium Deutschland{''}, founded by 25 institutions,
   marking a pivotal point for membership options and National User Group
   participation within DSpace Governance. This article will offer an
   overview of the historical development of the DSpace community and its
   governance model, as well as DuraSpace's international engagement
   strategy, including its benefits and challenges. Subsequently, we will
   present a case study on the DSpace-Konsortium Deutschland and explain
   its relation to the broader context of how to build national user groups
   within global communities.},

Abstract = {It is common for community-based free software projects to be associated
   with an organizational scenario that resembles ``a bazaar more than a
   cathedral,{''} and to differ from the traditional, or `bureaucratic' way
   of organizing work. This paper analyzes the governance of these
   organizations from the perspective of their structure and control,
   considering the development trajectory of three communitybased free
   software projects in Brazil. Results show that the constant need to
   produce modern technologies gives rise to external pressures that
   promote change - albeit temporary - in the governance of these projects,
   making them resemble a cathedral more than a bazaar. Governance does not
   follow a cycle of sequential improvement; it changes depending on the
   external organizational actors present, such as sponsors. This suggests
   the need for strategic and flexible governance to deal with the
   acquisition and allocation of organizational resources. Governance of
   the projects described here varies along a spectrum of (in)formality
   that allows both production models - cathedral or bazaar - to exist in
   the same organization at different periods.},

Title = {Learning to detect community smells in open source software projects},
Journal = {KNOWLEDGE-BASED SYSTEMS},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {204},
Month = {SEP 27},
Abstract = {Community smells are symptoms of organizational and social issues within
   the software development community that often lead to additional project
   costs. Recent studies identified a variety of community smells and
   defined them as sub-optimal patterns connected to organizational-social
   structures in the software development community. To early detect and
   discover existence of potential community smells in a software project,
   we introduce, in this paper, a novel machine learning-based detection
   approach, named CSDETECTOR, that learns from various existing bad
   community development practices to provide automated support in
   detecting such community smells. In particular, our approach learns from
   a set of organizational-social symptoms that characterize the existence
   of potential instances of community smells in a software project. We
   built a detection model using Decision Tree by adopting the C4.5
   classifier to identify eight commonly occurring community smells in
   software projects. To evaluate the performance of our approach, we
   conduct an empirical study on a benchmark of 74 open source projects
   from Github. Our statistical results show a high performance of
   CSDETECTOR, achieving an average accuracy of 96\% and AUC of 0.94.
   Moreover, our results indicate that the CSDETECTOR outperforms two
   recent state-of-the-art techniques in terms of detection accuracy.
   Finally, we investigate the most influential community-related metrics
   to identify each community smell type. We found that the number of
   commits and developers per time zone, the number of developers per
   community, and the social network betweenness and closeness centrality
   are the most influential community characteristics. (C) 2020 Elsevier

Abstract = {In the past decade, open-source software (OSS) has become a very popular
   research topic in the field of software engineering. Because its code is
   open to the public, it has been pursued by programming teams all over
   the world, including those in universities, government agencies and
   enterprises. In addition to analyzing some famous OSS projects,
   researchers also studied OSS projects and their functions in GitHub.
   However, the evolution process and the rules of OSS projects in GitHub
   have not been widely investigated so we conducted in-depth research on
   this issue. We use the cellular automata (CA) in the field of system
   dynamics to model the OSS project, construct the evolution rules of the
   Gray wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm, define the objective vector,
   objective function and key optimization operators of GWO for OSS
   cellular evolution, and realize the intelligent acquisition of OSS
   project evolution rules in GitHub. In addition, we also selected the
   data of some OSS projects in GitHub from 2015 to 2020 for the simulation
   experiment. The experiment results show that the total accuracy of the
   simulation is 91.4\%, which is consistent with real data.},

Abstract = {Software quality comprises different and interrelated aspects. One of
   them is maintainability, which in turn is made up of measurable
   attributes. Previous studies have shown that documentation, by
   contributing to the comprehensibility of software, may have a positive
   effect on maintainability and, hence, software quality. This paper
   presents a study in which we analyzed Javadoc comments from 163
   different open-source projects. Javadoc is the de facto standard for
   documenting source code files in Java projects, and although its syntax
   is less strict than in other (programming) languages, documentation
   written with Javadoc may contain violations. Our study focuses on the
   detection of different types of Javadoc violations as well as the source
   code elements affected by them. Also, by utilizing software repository
   mining techniques, we examined the history of the subject systems to
   gain further insights into the evolution of Javadoc violations.
   According to our results, about half of the source code elements have no
   Javadoc whatsoever. Among the different components of Javadoc comments
   (if present), the description of exceptions, by far, has the highest
   average ratio of violations. With regard to the types of affected
   elements, constructors and methods show very high average ratios. Also,
   we found that, on average, violations live more than two years.
   Nowadays, most integrated development environments (IDEs) for Java are
   capable of detecting missing Javadoc comments as well as comments with
   syntactic errors. However, our results indicate that the documentation
   of source code might be considered less important to developers or that
   these tools alone may not be sufficient for maintaining consistent
   documentation.},

Abstract = {A comprehensive set of governance mechanisms and dimensions were
   investigated to identify combinations of mechanisms that are effectively
   used together in on-going volunteer-based open source software (OSS)
   projects. Three configurations were identified: Defined Community, Open
   Community, and Authoritarian Community. Notably, Defined Community
   governance had the strongest coordination and project climate and had
   the most extensive use of outcome, behavior, and clan control mechanisms
   (controller driven). The controls in the Defined Community governance
   configuration appear to effectively enable open, coordinated
   contribution and participation from a wide variety of talented
   developers (one of the virtues of open source development) while
   managing the development process and outcomes. The results add to our
   theoretical understanding of control in different types of information
   systems projects, as the combination of control modes found in OSS
   projects is different from those found in previous research for internal
   or outsourced information systems development projects. This could be
   due to unique features of OSS projects, such as volunteer participation
   and the controller being part of the development team. The results
   provide guidance for practitioners about how to combine 19 identified
   governance mechanisms into effective project governance that stimulates
   productive participation.},

Abstract = {The Open Source Software (OSS) development model is arousing increasing
   interest from both practitioners and theorists. OSS models are congenial
   for both private companies and public administrations since they provide
   software users and suppliers with highly responsive and innovative
   development models which are likely to reduce costs and to provide
   additional autonomy within critical technological domains. OSS are
   characterized by the distribution of source code to any developer
   interested in contributing to the provision of the code. License terms
   allow a developer to make unlimited copies of the source code which can
   be modified indefinitely by developers to fulfil particular needs. Each
   developer is then free to distribute her work and exploit it
   commercially depending on license terms. The U.S. Department of Defense
   (DoD) is currently introducing Open Source Software (OSS) development
   models through its Open Technology Development (OTD) project (Herz et
   al. 2006). OSS adoption is becoming popular for military purposes.
   Indeed, the digital transformation of the U.S. military has generated a
   strong need for new modes of software management. In this context, the
   OTD project tends to set up an innovative model for software
   acquisition, maintenance, updating, and renewing. Focusing on the
   adoption of Military Open Source Software (MOSS) models by the U.S.
   Department of Defense (DoD), this article suggests that the open nature
   of OSS development platforms induces significant organizational changes
   related to the acquisition, transformation and creation of a variety of
   OSS core capabilities. Furthermore, we suggest that the U.S. military
   organizations should perceive modularity in software architecture as a
   means to establish effective modes of knowledge management and
   innovation. Building on the distinction between architectural and
   component knowledge, we find that modular source code structuring
   facilitates the division, distribution and coordination of both
   architectural knowledge and component knowledge within heterogeneous OSS
   developers' communities.},

Abstract = {Technological development has become so manifest in all fields that it
   is now highly crucial to take it into consideration whenever possible.
   Open Source Software (OSS) has becoming widely adopted by commercial,
   public and academic organisations. Currently, there is increasing
   interest and demand in the existing applications of OSS in all fields
   all over the world! OSS has increased in prominence in the last decade,
   mostly due to the success of well-known software organisations such as
   Apache, Mozilla, Linux and Guice. As these organisations have become
   more dependent on software, the effective management of Software
   Evolution (SE) becomes more critical to an organization's success.
   Therefore, the provision of well-evolved OSS has become an urgent issue
   in these days and will be so in the future. Therefore, the major
   challenge in OSS is how to evolve its environment, especially
   improvements in the security and quality of these systems. The main aim
   of this paper is to measure the evolution of OSS using, Eclipse Metrics
   (EM), with Guice software (GS) as a case study. In addition, this paper
   gives a brief literature review on OSS and how it has evolved.},

Abstract = {Software firms participate in an ecosystem as a part of their innovation
   strategy to extend value creation beyond the firm's boundary.
   Participation in an open and independent environment also implies the
   competition among firms with similar business models and targeted
   markets. Hence, firms need to consider potential opportunities and
   challenges upfront. This study explores how software firms interact with
   others in OSS ecosystems from a coopetition perspective. We performed a
   quantitative and qualitative analysis of three OSS projects. Finding
   shows that software firms emphasize the co-creation of common value and
   partly react to the potential competitiveness on OSS ecosystems. Six
   themes about coopetition were identified, including spanning
   gatekeepers, securing communication, open-core sourcing and filtering
   shared code. Our work contributes to software engineering research with
   a rich description of coopetition in OSS ecosystems. Moreover, we also
   come up with several implications for software firms in pursing a
   harmony participation in OSS ecosystems.},

Abstract = {The Open-Source Software community has become the center of attention
   for many researchers, who are investigating various aspects of
   collaboration in this extremely large ecosystem. Due to its size, it is
   difficult to grasp whether or not it has structure, and if so, what it
   may be. Our hackathon project aims to facilitate the understanding of
   the developer collaboration structure and relationships among projects
   based on the bi-graph of what projects developers contribute to by
   providing an interactive collaboration graph of this ecosystem, using
   the data obtained from World of Code {[}1] infrastructure. Our attempts
   to visualize the entirety of projects and developers were stymied by the
   inability of the layout and visualization tools to process the
   exceedingly large scale of the full graph. We used WoC to filter the
   nodes (developers and projects) and edges (developer contributions to a
   project) to reduce the scale of the graph that made it amenable to an
   interactive visualization and published the resulting visualizations. We
   plan to apply hierarchical approaches to be able to incorporate the
   entire data in the interactive visualizations and also to evaluate the
   utility of such visualizations for several tasks.},

Title = {THE LIFE CYCLE OF OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITIES},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF ELECTRONIC COMMERCE RESEARCH},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {14},
Number = {2},
Pages = {167-182},
Abstract = {Drawing from the concept of entropy in open systems theory, this article
   contributes to organizational theory by illuminating organizational life
   cycle theory and exploring open source software development communities
   (OSSDC) with quantitative longitudinal data. In particular, this study
   uses functional data analysis to uncover the development patterns of
   open source software projects in terms of effectiveness and activity
   levels. Our findings show that the life cycles of OSSDC display an
   inverted-U shape in terms of effectiveness level and an inverted-S shape
   in terms of activity level. Although our results provide some evidence
   of distinct states, they do not imply that such states are predetermined
   or irreversible. On the contrary, these numerous states are viewed here
   as intrinsically dynamic. These findings not only give empirical support
   to the organizational life cycle metaphor in the context of OSSDC, but
   also aid practitioners and policy-makers in assessing online
   communities. Taking an open systems view of organizations, this study
   aids in reconciling some issues in life cycle theory, such as the
   irreversibility and pre-determinacy of life cycle models, and adds to a
   young but fast growing stream of literature on open source projects.
   Lastly, our findings remark the importance of fostering active
   communities for superior effectiveness and long-term survival of the
   community.},

Pages = {369-397},
Abstract = {Digital commons have held the interest of the research community in
   recent years. However, institutional recognition has not been fully
   awarded mainly due to the absence of a comprehensive reporting
   framework. The objective of our research is to identify indicators in
   order to measure open source projects performance. Motivation that led
   us to carry out this analysis was the fact that, despite the many
   benefits attributed to open sourcing, no information about it was
   disclosed on annual reports. We are based on previous literature about
   creating institutions to governing the commons. One of the key goals is
   institutional reporting to members of the community, so we believe that
   a reporting model based on social responsibility framework is clearly
   suitable for this purpose. Social responsibility and sustainability are
   about enabling organizations to incorporate creation of social,
   environmental and economic value into core strategy and operations;
   their reporting is key to create value for organizations, their
   stakeholders and society as a whole. To reach our goal, we asked a panel
   of open source experts their opinion about the key success factors and
   other relevant variables for the purpose of recommending a methodology
   to calculate specific indicators to be disclosed on social
   responsibility reports.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) communities rely on the high-quality codes

   theory, this article intends to explore users' contribution in OSS
   communities. A mixed method of SEM and fsQCA was used to perform data
   analysis. We found that intrinsic motivations (flow experience and
   self-efficacy), extrinsic motivations (perceived reputation and
   reciprocity), social interaction ties, community identification, and
   common language positively affect users' contribution intention. Trust
   has no effect on the contribution intention. The fsQCA results indicated
   that flow experience, perceived reputation, reciprocity and trust are
   the common core conditions of four configurations leading to
   contribution intention. The results suggest that OSS communities need to
   be concerned with users' motivations and develop social capital in order
   to encourage their contribution.},

   There is an increasing interest in software certification as a means to

   development processes and organizational structures of OSS projects can
   be substantially different from traditional closed-source projects. The
   distributed, ``bazaar-style{''} approach to software development in OSS

Abstract = {Prior research into open source software (OSS) developer participation
   has emphasized individuals' motivations for joining these volunteer
   communities, but it has failed to explain why people stay or leave in

   peripheral participation (LPP), this paper offers a longitudinal
   investigation of one OSS community in which sustained participation is
   hypothesized to be associated with the coevolution of two major elements
   of LPP theory: ``situated learning{''} (the process of acting
   knowledgeably and purposefully in the world) and ``identity
   construction{''} (the process of being identified within the community).
   To test this hypothesis, data were collected from multiple sources,
   including online public project documents, electronic mail messages,
   tracker messages, and log files. Results from qualitative analyses
   revealed that initial conditions to participate did not effectively
   predict long-term participation, but that situated learning and identity
   construction behaviors were positively linked to sustained
   participation. Furthermore, this study reveals that sustained
   participants distinguished themselves by consistently engaging in
   situated learning that both made conceptual (advising others) and
   practical contributions (improving the code). Implications and future

   traditional software development, OSS development is driven by
   collaboration among developers spread geographically and motivated by
   common goals and interests. Besides this fact, it is recognized by the
   OSS community the need to understand OSS development process and its
   activities. Our goal is to investigate the state-of-art about OSS
   process through conducting a systematic literature review providing an
   overview of how the OSS community has been investigating OSS process
   over past years. We identified and summarized OSS process activities and
   their characteristics and translated them into an OSS macro process
   using BPMN notation. As a result, we systematically analyzed 33 studies
   presenting an overview of the OSS process research and a generalized OSS
   development macro process represented by BPMN notation with a detailed
   description of each OSS process activity and roles in OSS environment.
   We conclude that OSS process can be in practice further investigated by
   researchers. In addition, the presented OSS process can be used as a
   guide for OSS projects and be adapted according to each OSS project
   reality. It provides insights to managers and developers who want to
   improve their development process even in OSS and traditional
   environments. Finally, recommendations for OSS community regarding OSS
   process activities are provided.},

   Source Software (OSS). Even though OSS provides many benefits, including
   high-quality software and substantial profit (Sohn \& Mok, 2008), OSS
   also has a number of disadvantages. In several countries, governments
   have begun to recognize the importance of OSS and have started to adopt
   explicit policies on OSS (Cook \& Horobin, 2006). Open Source Software
   holds several compelling benefits for businesses. Information on
   wide-ranging use and examples of OSS in organizations are scattered and
   sometimes skewed to a few OSS. The chapter identifies different OSS that

Abstract = {The evolution of software is necessary for the success of software
   systems. Studying the evolution of software and understanding it is a
   vocal topic of study in software engineering. One of the primary
   concepts of software evolution is that the internal quality of a

   evolution of the internal quality of object-oriented open-source
   software systems has been examined by applying a software metric
   approach. More specifically, we analyze how software systems evolve over
   versions regarding size and the relationship between size and different
   internal quality metrics. The results and observations of this research
   include: (i) there is a significant difference between different systems
   concerning the LOC variable (ii) there is a significant correlation
   between all pairwise comparisons of internal quality metrics, and (iii)
   the effect of complexity and inheritance on the LOC was positive and
   significant, while the effect of Coupling and Cohesion was not

Abstract = {This article introduces an item factor analysis (IFA) module for OpenMx,
   a free, open-source, and modular statistical modeling package that runs
   within the R programming environment on GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, and
   Microsoft Windows. The IFA module offers a novel model specification
   language that is well suited to programmatic generation and manipulation
   of models. Modular organization of the source code facilitates the easy
   addition of item models, item parameter estimation algorithms,
   optimizers, test scoring algorithms, and fit diagnostics all within an
   integrated framework. Three short example scripts are presented for
   fitting item parameters, latent distribution parameters, and a multiple
   group model. The availability of both IFA and structural equation
   modeling in the same software is a step toward the unification of these
   two methodologies.},

Abstract = {The development and implementation of open source software (OSS) is one
   of the most current topics within the academic, business and political
   environments. Traditionally, research in OSS has focused on identifying
   individual personal motives for participating in the development of an
   OSS project, analyzing specific OSS solutions, or the OSS movement,
   itself. Nevertheless, user acceptance towards this type of technology
   has received very little attention. For this reason, the main purpose of
   the current study is to identify the variables and factors that have a
   direct effect on individual attitude towards OSS adoption. Therefore, we
   have developed a technological acceptance model on behalf of the users
   towards a solution based on OSS. For this development, we have
   considered the technology acceptance model. Findings show that OSS is a
   viable solution for information management for organizations. (C) 2007

Abstract = {Open-source software (OSS) plays a vital role in the modern software
   ecosystem. However, the maintenance and sustainability of OSS projects
   can be challenging. In this paper, we present the CrOSSD project, which
   aims to build a database of OSS projects and measure their current
   project ``health{''} status. In the project, we will use both
   quantitative and qualitative metrics to evaluate the health of OSS
   projects. The quantitative metrics will be gathered through automated
   crawling of meta information such as the number of contributors, commits
   and lines of code. Qualitative metrics will be gathered for selected
   ``critical{''} projects through manual analysis and automated tools,
   including aspects such as sustainability, funding, community engagement
   and adherence to security policies. The results of the analysis will be
   presented on a user-friendly web platform, which will allow users to
   view the health of individual OSS projects as well as the overall health
   of the OSS ecosystem. With this approach, the CrOSSD project provides a
   comprehensive and up-to-date view of the health of OSS projects, making
   it easier for developers, maintainers and other stakeholders to
   understand the health of OSS projects and make informed decisions about
   their use and maintenance.},

Title = {Does Open Source Software influence economic growth?},
Journal = {E-MENTOR},
Year = {2015},
Number = {2},
Pages = {69-76},
Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) community is challenging the traditional
   meaning of property rights. The way the OSS products are developed and
   distributed is questioning the right to exclude others from using the
   goods and introduces the right to distribute and modify software for
   free. The economic impact of the Open Source Software contribution is
   significant, it has been estimated that it represents c.a. 30\% of the
   software market. There is an increasing interest in studying OSS
   communities, however there have been a small number of studies
   investigating the general role of the OSS in the economic growth.
   Therefore the lack of theory linking the economic growth and OSS
   contribution represents the main theoretical problem of this paper. The
   goal of this article is to prove that the existence of OSS communities
   increases the quantity of non-rival and non-excludable goods, which -
   according to endogenous model of growth - leads to economic growth.
   Additionally the study findings undermine the neoclassical theory of
   property rights in terms of non-rival and non-excludable goods. The
   structure of the paper is organized as follows. In section 1 the article
   focuses on the literature addressing the role of the non-rival and
   non-excludable goods in the theory of growth and theory of property
   rights. Section 2, contains the literature review of the OSS
   socio-economic phenomena and argues that the neoclassical theory of
   rights is inadequate to explain OSS market existence. Section 3 of the
   paper summarizes the main conclusions and discusses the general
   motivation behind the creation of the non-excludable and non-rival goods
   as well as the diminishing role of the egoism as the origin of the
   economic growth. From the methodological point of view the paper
   represents a literature review and a critical analysis of the endogenous
   growth theory and the theory of property rights.},

Abstract = {To learn about what drives people to devote their time and expertise to
   creating and supporting free/open source software, a survey with

   allowed respondents to express their reasons for participating in these
   open source communities. Results indicate that the open source
   contributors (n = 110, 38 paid to work on OSS projects and 72
   volunteers) are motivated primarily by a sense of altruism as well as
   the desire to create and learn. Payment did not significantly impact the
   reasons for contributing to OSS projects. The comments and open-ended
   questions validated the findings and indicated that building a
   ``Utopian{''} community - the desire to help for the greater good
   worldwide - is one of the most important motivators. Also, respondents
   revealed that they join and persist as members of open source
   communities because they enjoy the freedom to create and share free
   software, tools and knowledge with others inside and outside the
   community. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) has been studied as a popular example of open
   innovation. Models used in open software development are innovative in
   several ways, to the point that they are only recognized as valid models
   at all since they have actually produced mature and stable software more
   in a swift fashion. Some studies attempt to answer the OSS's development
   model, way to produce the quality products and distributed development
   model driven by motivated voluntary developers found in OSS. However,
   they are usually focused on handful projects and often miss to represent
   the whole world of OSS development. We analyze FLOSSMetrics database and
   SourceForge repository. By examining these, we attempt to identify 1)
   factual landscape of OSS projects, 2) correlation between different
   measures including developers' activities and consumers' interests. This
   analysis is also supplemented by empirical research on world re-known
   OSS projects to identify the implication of vendor-led OSS projects. We
   find that OSS projects are hardly to be seen as loci of future open
   innovation in several ways. We also conclude that prior belief which
   altruistic developers donating time and effort for the common good is
   highly romanticized view of open source software.},

Abstract = {The supply chain is an extremely successful way to cope with the risk
   posed by distributed decision making in product sourcing and
   distribution. While open source software has similarly distributed
   decision making and involves code and information flows similar to those
   in ordinary supply chains, the actual networks necessary to quantify and
   communicate risks in software supply chains have not been constructed on
   large scale. This work proposes to close this gap by measuring
   dependency, code reuse, and knowledge flow networks in open source
   software. We have done preliminary work by developing suitable tools and
   methods that rely on public version control data to measure and
   comparing these networks for R language and emberjs packages. We propose
   ways to calculate the three networks for the entirety of public
   software, evaluate their accuracy, and to provide public infrastructure
   to build risk assessment and mitigation tools for various individual and
   organizational participants in open sources software. We hope that this
   infrastructure will contribute to more predictable experience with OSS
   and lead to its even wider adoption.},

Abstract = {Open source software has been growing in popularity over the years. In
   many cases, it is an assumed `` tool of the trade{''} for information

   software as an alternative to purchasing or developing information
   system components, with the driving factor being lower capital costs.
   What does it mean to be open source? Is this trend really a good thing?
   Should you be looking to the open source community to solve the IT
   problems on your factory floor? We will explain the concepts and
   philosophies behind open source development and community sponsored
   software, look at why you may or may not want to use it and consider the
   risks and responsibilities that come with open source tools.
   Overall, we have found that the potential benefits to the manufacturing
   community are great but not without pitfalls to avoid. We discuss the
   issues that must be considered when choosing to use these components and
   tools, because capital costs are not the only expenditures that can be

Abstract = {Open source software development represents a fundamentally new concept
   in the field of software engineering. Comparing to traditional software
   engineering approach, we found this approach is absolutely reversed.
   Open source development and delivery occurs on Internet time. Developers
   are not confined to a geographic area. They work voluntarily on a
   project of their choice; they are not forced to join a particular
   project just because it needs more developers or the project has a high
   degree of urgency. Developers work for peer-recognition and
   self-satisfaction. In the open source community, each and every project
   has an equal priority. Software designed under open source is not
   released until the project owner thinks that the software has reached a
   functional stage. One of the success stories is the Linux operating
   system. Open Source software is always in an evolutionary stage: it
   never reaches a final stage. As new requirements emerge the software is
   enhanced by the user/developers. In this paper, we give an introduction
   to the insights of open source software development. We then elucidate
   the perceived benefits and point out the differences between open source
   and closed source software development approaches. At the end we propose
   a new model for open source software development.},

Abstract = {Computers systems are virtually in every area of our life, but their use
   has several risks. This is particularly relevant for small business that
   are beginning to resort in informatics systems for all their activities,
   and where a breach of security can have catastrophic consequences. Most
   risks or security vulnerabilities, besides inadverted errors, originates
   from criminal activity, which anonymously thrives on the Web and can
   outbreak any organization, mainly for profit but sometimes just for the
   challenge of doing it. Consequently, creating and managing a security
   system is often the main form of precaution and it is the solution that
   guarantees better success rates. In this paper, we are interested in
   software with a lower financial cost, therefore our focus is in Free and
   Open Source Software. To this end, the following types of security tools
   are analyzed: Firewall and Web Applications Firewall (WAF).},

   environment. The quality of open source software improves over time
   based upon contributions by firms and users. A. firm's decision to
   contribute is interesting because it also augments competitors' software
   quality in future periods subject to compatibility considerations with
   their existing software. A differential game model is developed to
   understand why firms are increasingly involved in open source software
   development by determining the optimal contributions and software
   quality over time. We obtain a closed-loop Nash equilibrium solution.
   Examples are given to derive insights from this model.},

Abstract = {When researchers want to repeat, improve or refute prior conclusions, it
   is useful to have a complete and operational description of prior
   experiments. If those descriptions are overly long or complex, then
   sharing their details may not be informative. OURMINE is a scripting
   environment for the development and deployment of data mining
   experiments. Using OURMINE, data mining novices can specify and execute
   intricate experiments, while researchers can publish their complete
   experimental rig alongside their conclusions. This is achievable because
   of OURMINE's succinctness. For example, this paper presents two
   experiments documented in the OURMINE syntax. Thus, the brevity and
   simplicity of OURMINE recommends it as a better tool for documenting,
   executing, and sharing data mining experiments. Copyright (C) 2010 John

   on classroom circumstances, instructors can assign projects that involve
   student contributions to OSS, custom plug-ins, simulated open source

Abstract = {As a software system evolves, its architecture will drift. System
   changes are often done without considering their effects on the system
   structure. These changes often introduce structural anomalies between
   the concrete (as-built) and the conceptual (as-designed) architecture
   which can impede program understanding. The problem of architectural
   drift is especially pronounced in open source systems, where many
   developers work in isolation on distinct features with little
   co-ordination. In this paper we present our experiences with repairing
   the architectures of two large open source systems (the Linux operating
   system kernel and the VIM text editor) to aid program understanding. For
   both systems, we were successful in removing many structural anomalies
   from their architectures.},

Abstract = {As open source software (OSS) is increasingly used as a key input by
   firms, understanding its impact on productivity becomes critical. This
   study measures the firm-level productivity impact of nonpecuniary (free)
   OSS and finds a positive and significant value-added return for firms
   that have an ecosystem of complementary capabilities. There is no such
   impact for firms without this ecosystem of complements. Dynamic panel
   analysis, instrumental variables, and a variety of robustness checks are
   used to address measurement error concerns and to add support for a more
   causal interpretation of the results. For firms with an ecosystem of
   complements, a 1\% increase in the use of nonpecuniary OSS leads to an
   increase in value- added productivity of between 0.002\% and 0.008\%.
   This effect is smaller for larger firms, and the results indicate that
   prior research underestimates the amount of IT firms use.},

Abstract = {The increased dissemination of open source software to a broader
   audience has led to a proportional increase in the dissemination of
   vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities are introduced by developers,
   some intentionally or negligently. In this paper, we work to quantify
   the relative risk that a given developer represents to a software
   project. We propose using empirical software engineering based analysis
   on the vast data made available by GitHub to create a Developer Risk
   Score (DRS) for prolific contributors on GitHub. The DRS can then be
   aggregated across a project as a derived vulnerability assessment, we
   call this the Computational Vulnerability Assessment Score (CVAS). The
   CVAS represents the correlation between the Developer Risk score across
   projects and vulnerabilities attributed to those projects. We believe
   this to be a contribution in trying to quantify risk introduced by
   specific developers across open source projects. Both of the risk
   scores, those for contributors and projects, are derived from an
   amalgamation of data, both from GitHub and outside GitHub. We seek to
   provide this risk metric as a force multiplier for the project
   maintainers that are responsible for reviewing code contributions. We
   hope this will lead to a reduction in the number of introduced
   vulnerabilities for projects in the Open Source ecosystem.},

Abstract = {Open source software is rapidly spreading in the world as there is no

   substantial savings in their cost of operation with the adoption of such

   the community involved as far as updates, amendments and enhancements
   are concerned. In this paper, the adoption of open source software in
   the world is highlighted together with issues pertaining to their use.
   In addition, a survey showing the low adoption of such software in the
   public sector in Mauritius is presented. A case study demonstrating the
   benefits in terms of cost is explored in the public sector organisation
   and a medium-sized private organisation in Mauritius. The promise of
   open source software for Mauritius, as a small island developing state,
   is also discussed as a way ahead to unleash further benefits.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY \& POLITICS},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {8},
Number = {3, SI},
Pages = {223-239},
Abstract = {This article argues that the rhetorical discourse found among free, open
   source software (F/OSS) movements is being expanded beyond the
   traditional constituency of software hackers to encompass a larger group
   of non-expert users and other advocacy organizations. In so doing, the
   initial goals of free software advocates are being dramatically expanded
   to include broader aims of digital freedom and social justice. Utilizing
   the concept of social movements from political sociology, this article
   first outlines the key aims and discourses surrounding the free software
   movement by discussing the emergence and development of F/OSS efforts
   such as the GNU/Linux operating system and the GNU Public License (GPL).
   Second, I provide examples of how the free software discourses have been
   adopted, altered, and expanded by a number of organized groups over the
   past decade. These groups, such as the Creative Commons, digital privacy
   advocates, and global development agencies, have adopted some of the
   core concepts of free software, while greatly expanding their meaning
   and purpose to suit their own advocacy aims. Finally, I argue that the
   adoption of free software discourse among these newer groups is also
   having a recursive effect upon the free software movement by encouraging
   free software advocates to conceptualize F/OSS as part of a broader
   movement of digital rights and social justice. In the conclusion, the
   prospects for the emergence of a larger technological and cultural
   freedom movement in the future are assessed.},

Abstract = {To manage work interdependencies, online communities draw on a variety
   of arm's length coordination mechanisms offered by information
   technology platforms and associated practices. However, ``unresolved
   interdependencies{''} remain that cannot be addressed by such arm's
   length mechanisms. These interdependencies reflect, for example,
   unidentified or emerging knowledge-based dependencies between the
   community members or unaccounted relationships between ongoing community
   tasks. At the same time, online communities cannot resort to
   hierarchical coordination mechanisms such as incentives or command
   structures to address such interdependencies. So, how do they manage
   such interdependencies? To address this question, we conduct an
   exploratory, theory-generating case study involving qualitative and
   computational analyses of development activities within an open source
   software community: Rubinius. We analyze the ongoing management of
   interdependencies within the community and find that unresolved
   interdependencies are associated with alternatively structured sequences
   of activities, which we define as routines. In particular, we observe
   that two distinct classes of interdependencies-development and developer
   interdependencies-are associated with alternative forms of routine
   variation. We identify two generalized routine components-direct
   implementation and knowledge integration, which address these two
   distinct classes of unresolved interdependencies. In particular, direct
   implementation deals with development interdependencies within the code
   that are not already coordinated through modular interfaces, while
   knowledge integration resolves unaccounted interdependencies between
   developers. We conclude with implications for research into organizing
   principles for online communities and note the significance of our
   findings for the study of coordination in organization studies in
   general.},

Abstract = {The Open Source Software movement has been growing exponentially for a
   number of years with no signs of slowing. Driving this growth is the
   wide-spread availability of libraries and frameworks that provide many
   functionalities. Developers are saving time and money incorporating this
   functionality into their applications resulting in faster more
   feature-rich releases. Despite the growing success and the advantages
   that open source software provides, there is a dark side. Due to its
   community construction and largely unregulated distribution, the
   majority of open source software contains bugs, vulnerabilities and
   other issues making it highly susceptible to exploits. The lack of
   oversight in general hinders the quality of this software resulting in a
   trickle down effect in the applications that use it. Additionally,
   developers who use open source tend to arbitrarily download the software
   into their build systems but rarely keep track of what they have
   downloaded resulting in an excessive amount of open source software in
   their applications and in their ecosystem. This paper discusses
   processes and practices that users of open source software can implement
   into their environments that can safely track and control the
   introduction and usage of open source software into their applications,
   and report on some preliminary results obtained in an industrial
   context. We conclude by discussing governance issues related to the
   disciplined use and reuse of open source and areas for further
   improvements.},

Abstract = {Open source software projects rely on the voluntary efforts of thousands
   of software developers, yet we know little about why developers choose
   to participate in this collective development process. This paper
   inductively derives a framework for understanding participation from the
   perspective of the individual software developer based on data from two
   software communities with different governance structures.
   In both communities, a need for software-related improvements drives
   initial participation. The majority of participants leave the community
   once their needs are met, however, a small subset remains involved. For
   this set of developers, motives evolve over time and participation
   becomes a hobby. These hobbyists are critical to the long-term viability
   of the software code: They take on tasks that might otherwise go undone
   and work to maintain the simplicity and modularity of the code.
   Governance structures affect this evolution of motives. Implications for
   firms interested in implementing hybrid strategies designed to combine
   the advantages of open source software development with proprietary
   ownership and control are discussed.},

Abstract = {The research reported in this article attempts to discover who holds the
   power in open source software foundations through the analysis of
   governance documents. Artificial neural network analysis is used to
   analyse the content of the bylaws of six open source foundations (
   Apache, Eclipse, GNOME, Plone, Python, and SPI) for the purpose of
   identifying power structures. Results of the research suggest that: i)
   the actions of an open source software foundation are centered around
   one of three groups: Members, Chairman/President/Executive Director, and
   Board of Directors; ii) in only one of the six foundations is the Board
   of Directors responsible for both the community and the product; and
   iii) artificial neural network analysis of the content of bylaws
   provides unbiased insights of the power structure of open source
   software foundations. These results may prove useful to those who
   contribute to open source foundations and use their products and
   services.},

Title = {Has open source software been institutionalized in organizations or not?},

Abstract = {Context: Almost a decade ago, researchers in information systems and
   analysts of the information technology (IT) industry were predicting a
   bright future for open source software (OSS). Recent examples appear to
   lend support to this, but there exist many detractors of OSS and
   resistance to the transformation it creates. Thus, it is relevant to
   take a closer look at the institutionalization of OSS.
   Objective: This paper evaluates the extent of OSS institutionalization
   in organizations. A practice or innovation is said to be
   institutionalized when it is taken-for-granted and its use becomes the
   norm.
   Method: Drawing on institutional theory, the underlying concept of
   organizing vision and the rhetorical theory of diffusion of innovations,
   we analyze OSS institutionalization through the observation of the
   evolution of the public discourse about OSS and, simultaneously, the
   observation of the rate of adoption or diffusion of OSS in
   organizations.
   Results: OSS has become institutionalized for many back-end applications
   and is gradually becoming institutionalized for some front-end
   applications, mainly in small and medium enterprises but also in
   organizations in the financial, publishing, education, government and
   public sectors. Using the rhetorical theory of diffusion of innovations
   in tandem with the concept of organizing vision, we provide a deep
   understanding of the institutionalization of OSS by showing that it has
   not only diffused among organizations, but is also taken-for-granted in
   thought and social action. The positive tone and prominence of the
   public discourse on OSS have an important role to play in its
   institutionalization.
   Conclusion: The institutionalization of OSS in organizations cannot be
   underestimated by IT and business executives as well as key players in
   the IT industry. Future research efforts should be pursued and directed
   toward the institutionalization of particular OSS applications in a
   variety of industries and geographic regions. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All

Title = {Online division of labour: emergent structures in Open Source Software},
Journal = {SCIENTIFIC REPORTS},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {9},
Month = {SEP 25},
Abstract = {The development Open Source Software fundamentally depends on the
   participation and commitment of volunteer developers to progress on a
   particular task. Several works have presented strategies to increase the
   on-boarding and engagement of new contributors, but little is known on
   how these diverse groups of developers self-organise to work together.
   To understand this, one must consider that, on one hand, platforms like
   GitHub provide a virtually unlimited development framework: any number
   of actors can potentially join to contribute in a decentralised,
   distributed, remote, and asynchronous manner. On the other, however, it
   seems reasonable that some sort of hierarchy and division of labour must
   be in place to meet human biological and cognitive limits, and also to
   achieve some level of efficiency. These latter features (hierarchy and
   division of labour) should translate into detectable structural
   arrangements when projects are represented as developer-file bipartite
   networks. Thus, in this paper we analyse a set of popular open source
   projects from GitHub, placing the accent on three key properties:
   nestedness, modularity and in-block nestedness - which typify the
   emergence of heterogeneities among contributors, the emergence of
   subgroups of developers working on specific subgroups of files, and a
   mixture of the two previous, respectively. These analyses show that
   indeed projects evolve into internally organised blocks. Furthermore,
   the distribution of sizes of such blocks is bounded, connecting our
   results to the celebrated Dunbar number both in off-and on-line
   environments. Our conclusions create a link between bio-cognitive
   constraints, group formation and online working environments, opening up
   a rich scenario for future research on (online) work team assembly (e.g.
   size, composition, and formation). From a complex network perspective,
   our results pave the way for the study of time-resolved datasets, and
   the design of suitable models that can mimic the growth and evolution of
   OSS projects.},

Abstract = {Within a long-term distributed systems project we repeatedly: stumbled
   across the well-known yet difficult question to either implement from
   scratch or comprehend and adapt existing software. Having tried both
   ways allows us to retrospectively; compare the effectiveness of ``from
   scratch{''} implementation versus software evolution. By using the code
   bases of GNU GCC and Linux for the adaptation approach we gained
   valuable experiences with the comprehension and adaptation of large but
   sparsely documented code bases. In most cases, the adaptation of
   existing software proved to be by-far more effective than implementing
   from scratch. Surprisingly, the effort needed to comprehend the existing
   voluminous source codes repeatedly proved to be less than expected. In
   this paper we discuss our positive and negative experiences and the
   various factors influencing success and failure. Albeit collected in an
   academic setting, the observations described in this paper might well be
   transferable to the maintenance of large-scale commercial environments,

   developers, investors, and contributors, to decide which software

   software ecosystem of Python. It presents an analysis of the software
   ecosystem itself and the different characteristics it has. Based upon
   the conducted analysis with the available dataset, the research
   concludes that the free open source software ecosystem of Python
   contains three ecosystem roles that define its ecosystem. Next to that,
   it has grown exponentially from 31 active developers in 2005 to 5,212
   December 2012. These results can help set up a strategy for the future
   of the Python ecosystem. At this point in time, it is necessary to make
   arrangements for the ongoing growth of the Python ecosystem. Failing to
   do so can lead to a growing number of unusable features, and eventually
   advance to an unhealthy ecosystem.},

   look at the rather general definition of a community, we see that there
   is a similarity to the term `organization'. This paper draws parallels
   between OSS projects and the general elements of an organization and
   shows the different elements comprised in an OSS community: people,
   organization and assets. Each of those elements is enriched with
   examples from different research in the corresponding OSS research
   stream and provides a broad overview of the elements of OSS projects.
   With the help of this comparison, research on OSS can be made more
   focused and aligned with organizational research.},

Abstract = {Software Engineering courses often emphasize teaching methodologies and
   concepts in small and controlled environments over teaching, say,
   maintenance aspects of full-fledged real software systems. This decision
   is partly justified due to the difficulty of bringing to the context of
   a classroom a real software project. The widespread presence of open
   source projects, however, is contributing to alleviating this problem.
   Several instructors have already adopted contributions to open source
   projects as part of their evaluation process, and these instructors
   reported many benefits, including the improvement on students' technical
   and social skills. However, little is known about the students'
   perceptions regarding the need to contribute to an open source project
   as part of a Software Engineering course. To better understand the
   students' challenges, benefits, and attitudes, we conducted 21
   semi-structured interviews with students who took these courses in five
   different Brazilian universities. We also enriched this data with an
   analysis of commits performed in the repositories that students
   contributed to. We observed that even though some instructors chose the
   open source projects to students to work themselves, some students and
   even the open source community participated in the process of choosing
   projects and tasks. Students' contributions varied concerning both
   complexity (measured by the number of additions, deletions, and edited
   files) and diversity (measured regarding the different programming
   languages used). Among the benefits, students reported improving their
   technical skills and their self-confidence. Finally, some students found
   extremely important for instructors' being involved with open source
   initiatives (extra-classroom).},

Abstract = {Free\textbackslash{}Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) environments are
   increasingly dubbed as learning environments where practical software
   engineering skills can be acquired. Numerous studies have extensively
   investigated how knowledge is acquired in these environments through a
   collaborative learning model that define a learning process. Such a
   learning process, identified either as a result of surveys or by means
   of questionnaires, can be depicted through a series of graphical
   representations indicating the steps FLOSS community members go through
   as they acquire and exchange skills. These representations are referred
   to as a-priori learning models. They are Petri net-like workflow nets
   (WF-net) that provide a visual representation of the learning process as
   it is expected to occur. These models are representations of a learning
   framework or paradigm in FLOSS communities. As such, the credibility of
   any models is estimated through a process of model verification and
   validation. Therefore in this paper, we analyze these models in
   comparison with the real behavior captured in FLOSS repositories by
   means of conformance verification in process mining. The purpose of our
   study is twofold. Firstly, the results of our analysis provide insights
   on the possible discrepancies that are observed between the initial
   theoretical representations of learning processes and the real behavior
   captured in FLOSS event logs, constructed from mailing archives.
   Secondly, this comparison helps foster the understanding on how learning
   actually takes place in FLOSS environments based on empirical evidence
   directly from the data.},

Abstract = {The interest in open access and institutional archives in Norway is
   growing. In 2005, several university libraries, university college
   libraries and other research libraries met and discussed a joint effort
   to create institutional archives. The meeting resulted in the Pepia
   project with BIBSYS as a software partner. The project group decided to
   use the open source system DSpace as a software platform. A standard
   DSpace installation runs on a Tomcat servlet container. BIBSYS does not
   use this container, and we therefore needed to configure DSpace to get
   it to run successfully on our server. In addition we had some problems
   with integrating the DSpace development structure with our integrated
   development environment. Further we needed to create a new build process
   that effectively could build more than 30 applications from one source
   code. These changes were quite time consuming, but they were necessary
   so that we could have an efficient work environment. Out of the box
   DSpace has many of the functionalities that an institutional archive
   requires. In spite of this we needed to alter some of the functionality,
   especially the user management system. DSpace is a complex system, but
   with the active community we could get the help we needed. BIBSYS Brage,
   the result of the Pepia project, was launched as a beta version in
   December 2006. We look forward to develop BIBSYS Brage further, and are
   confidant that it will become a great system for the consortium.},

Abstract = {We studied virtual organizational learning in open source software (OSS)
   development projects. Specifically, our research focused on learning
   effects of OSS projects and the factors that affect the learning
   process. The number and percentage of resolved bugs and bug resolution
   time of 118 SourceForge.net OSS projects were used to measure the
   learning effects. Projects were characterized by project type, number
   and experience of developers, number of bugs, and bug resolution time.
   Our results provided evidence of virtual organizational learning in OSS
   development projects and support for several factors as determinants of
   performance. Team size was a significant predictor, with mid-sized
   project teams functioning best. Teams of three to seven developers
   exhibited the highest efficiency over time and teams of eight to 15
   produced the lowest mean time for bug resolution. Increasing the
   percentage of bugs assigned to specific developers or boosting developer
   participation in other OSS projects also improved performance.
   Furthermore, project type introduced variability in project team
   performance. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Software quality is one of the main goals of effective programming.
   Although it has a quite ambiguous meaning, quality can be measured by
   several metrics, which have been appropriately formulated through the
   years. Software measurement is a particularly important procedure, as it
   provides meaningful information about the software artifact. This
   procedure is even more emerging when we refer to open source software,
   where the need for shared knowledge is crucial for the maintenance and
   evolution of the code. A paradigm of open source project where code
   quality is especially important is the scientific language R. This paper
   aims to perform measurements on the R statistical open source software,
   examine the relationships among the observed metrics and special
   attributes of the R software and search for certain characteristics that
   define its behavior and structure. For this purpose, a random sample of
   508 R packages has been downloaded from the CRAN repository of R and has
   been measured, using the SourceMonitor metrics tool. The resulted
   measurements, along with a significant number of specific attributes of
   the R packages, were examined and analyzed, leading to interesting
   conclusions such as the validity of a power law distribution regarding
   the majority of the sample's metrics and the absence of specific
   patterns due to the interdependencies among packages. Finally, the
   effects of the number of developers and the number of dependencies are
   investigated, in order to understand their impact on the metrics of the
   sample packages.},

Abstract = {The majority of contributions to community open source software (OSS)
   projects are made by practitioners acting on behalf of companies and
   other organisations. Previous research has addressed the motivations of
   both individuals and companies to engage with OSS projects. However,
   limited research has been undertaken that examines and explains the
   practical mechanisms or work practices used by companies and their
   developers to pursue their commercial and technical objectives when
   engaging with OSS projects. This research investigates the variety of
   work practices used in public communication channels by company
   contributors to engage with and contribute to eight community OSS
   projects. Through interviews with contributors to the eight projects we
   draw on their experiences and insights to explore the motivations to use
   particular methods of contribution. We find that companies utilise work
   practices for contributing to community projects which are congruent
   with the circumstances and their capabilities that support their short-
   and long-term needs. We also find that companies contribute to community
   OSS projects in ways that may not always be apparent from public
   sources, such as employing core project developers, making donations,
   and joining project steering committees in order to advance strategic
   interests. The factors influencing contributor work practices can be
   complex and are often dynamic arising from considerations such as
   company and project structure, as well as technical concerns and
   commercial strategies. The business context in which software created by
   the OSS project is deployed is also found to influence contributor work
   practices.},

Abstract = {Increasingly open source (OS) software development is organized in a way
   similar to how a corporation would organize development. This paper
   examines this corporatizing effect by studying the relationship between
   peer-oriented social structures and goal-oriented technical structures
   in the Plone community. Social structures are said to exhibit
   assortative mixing, a like attract like characteristic whereas technical
   structures exhibits an opposite effect of disassortative mixing. Our
   first finding suggests that the patterns of collaborative contributions
   and interdependences among software modules exhibit the characteristic
   of disassortative mixing. Specifically, Plone developers were more
   likely to contribute to modules that already have a high concentration
   of contributions, which in turn lead to an increase in module reuse over
   time. This finding contributes to the debate of whether social systems
   are strictly assortative, and technological systems strictly
   disassortative (Newman, 2002). Our second contribution concerns the
   impact of corporatizing OSS projects, suggesting that corporatizing OS
   development had the effect of weakening the social organizing among
   developers, and shifted the patterns of contributions to adhere with the
   technical requirements.},

Abstract = {Comprehension of Open Source Software (OSS) projects is traditionally
   driven by the plethora of data produced and maintained by these
   projects. The data, in one hand, encapsulates the tacit knowledge on the
   evolution of the software itself. And, on the other hand, provides the
   history of communication and collaboration of the community. Acquisition
   and analysis of such data has been mostly manual or semi-automated and
   error-prone, mainly due to unstructured and substandard data
   representation. This increases the validity threat of the reported
   results and makes it incomparable across the studies. With the
   advancement of data management tools and technologies, many third party
   data providers are putting serious effort to provide OSS project's data
   in a standard and platform independent format. In this paper, we propose
   a framework to fully automate the analysis and visualization of OSS
   evolution data through the use of existing data services. As a proof of
   concept we implemented a tool named POMAZ. We demonstrate the
   applicability of the tool in the context of two related open source
   projects FFmpeg and GStreamer.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) development is a community-oriented,
   network-centric approach to building complex software systems. OSS
   projects are typically organized as edge organizations lacking an
   explicit management regime to control and coordinate decentralized
   project work. However, a growing number of OSS projects are developing,
   delivering, and supporting large-scale software systems, displacing
   proprietary software alternatives. Recent empirical studies of OSS
   projects reveal that OSS developers often self-organize into
   organizational forms we characterize as evolving socio-technical
   interaction networks (STINs). STINs emerge in ways that effectively
   control semi-autonomous OSS developers and coordinate project
   activities, producing reliable and adaptive software systems. In this
   paper, we examine how practices and processes enable and govern OSS
   projects when coalesced and configured as contingent, socio-technical
   interaction networks. We draw on data sources and results from two
   ongoing case studies of governance activities and elements in a large

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is widely spread in industry, research, and
   government. OSS represents an effective development model because it
   harnesses the decentralized efforts of many developers in a way that
   scales. As OSS developers work independently on interdependent modules,
   they create a larger cohesive whole in the form of an ecosystem, leaving
   traces of their contributions and collaborations. Data harvested from
   these traces enable the study of large-scale decentralized collaborative
   work. We present curated data on the activity of tens of thousands of
   developers in the Rust ecosystem and the evolving dependencies between
   their libraries. The data covers eight years of developer contributions
   to Rust libraries and can be used to reconstruct the ecosystem's
   development history, such as growing developer collaboration networks or
   dependency networks. These are complemented by data on downloads and
   popularity, tracking dynamics of use, visibility, and success over time.
   Altogether the data give a comprehensive view of several dimensions of
   the ecosystem.},

Abstract = {Technical debt represents deficiencies in software design or
   implementation often caused by prioritizing feature development over
   fixing existing issues. Like its financial counterpart, technical debt
   comprises a principal and an interest. Not addressing it in time leads
   to development crises, where focus and resources must be shifted to
   address existing issues. Existing software tools allow measuring the
   level of debt and pinpointing its sources, which can help practitioners
   control it. In the present paper we aim to investigate the prevalence,
   characteristics, and evolution of technical debt in several open-source
   applications. We used SonarQube to study 112 application versions that
   covered more than 15 years of development for each application. We
   studied the way debt characteristics and source code distribution
   evolved over the target applications' lifecycles. We addressed concerns
   regarding the accuracy of the analysis and illustrated some of the
   limitations of existing tools. We observed that a small number of issue
   types were responsible for most of the debt. We found that each
   application had its own technical debt particularities. As future work,
   we aim to expand our selection of analysis tools, leverage open data
   sets, and extend our investigation to other systems and types of
   software.},

Abstract = {Sustained participation is critical for the viability of open source
   software (OSS) project communities (OSSPCs), and this paper explores how
   sustained participation is maintained in viable OSSPCs. With the lens of
   the integrative model of trust (IMoT), hypotheses regarding interactions
   between trust and community citizenship behaviors (CCBs - as OSSPC
   participating activities) are developed. Both a qualitative study and a
   quantitative study are conducted, and data analysis confirms both the
   Trust -> CCBs and the CCBs -> Trust hypotheses along the time dimension,
   revealing CCBs-Trust interactions as a mechanism for maintaining
   sustained community participation. Further, while it is found that CCBs
   have an accumulative overall positive impact on trust, alternating
   positive and negative impacts of CCBs on trust over time are identified.
   In addition, a delayed impact is also identified in the Trust -> CCBs
   relationship. These findings are explained from several theoretical
   perspectives, which provide directions for future research and help
   community management to maintain sustained participation.},

Abstract = {Online open source software platforms, such as Sourceforge.net, play a
   vital role in creating an ecosystem that enables the creation and growth
   of open source projects. However, there is little research exploring the
   interactions between open source stakeholders and the platform. We
   believe that the sustainability of the platform crucially depends on
   financial incentives. While platforms can obtain these incentives
   through multiple means, in this paper we focus on one form of financial
   incentives-voluntary monetary donations by open source community
   members. We report findings from two empirical studies that examine
   factors that impact donations. Study I investigates the factors that
   cause some community members to donate and not others. We find that the
   decision to donate is impacted by relational commitment with open source
   software platform, donation to projects and accepting donations from
   others. Study 2 examines what drives the level of donation. We find that
   the length of association with the platform and relational commitment
   affects donation levels. Published by Elsevier B.V.},

Abstract = {Today many kinds of applications requires data containing actual
   three-dimensional data; fields like urban and town planning and
   pollution studies need 3D data, both for visualization purpose, as well
   as carry out many spatial analysis. This research -Management and use of
   distributed 3D data by open source Web-GIS software - is part of the
   Italian ``PRIN 2007{''}{*} research project, aimed to build urban and
   suburban 3D models, and to interact with them using open source software
   only.
   Particularly free and open source software, used for the experimentation
   here shown, are Blender and PostGIS; the first one has been used to
   build and structure three-dimensional data, the second one for data
   allocation. These software interact using scripts, written in Python
   language.
   Buildings have been modeled upon the GIANT3D model (Geographical
   Interoperable Advanced Numerical Topological 3-Dimensional Model)
   developed in the research ``PRIN 2004{''}, regarding ``Evolved structure
   of numerical cartography for Gis and Web-GIS{''}.
   Python scripts, activated by Blender, allow to allocate data into a
   spatial database implemented through PostgreSQL and PostGis, that could
   be a remote database somewhere on the net; all geometrical and
   topological information, implemented in the 3D model, are so transferred
   in PostGIS. These information can be retrieved by Blender using other
   Python scripts, so Blender fully interacts with 3D data allocated in
   PostGIS. These data can be also accessed by many other clients, both
   directly using a database client, as using other protocols (like HTTP on
   the internet). Next step is to build an open source viewer, or a plugin
   for internet browsers, that allows client to visualize, explore and
   inquiry 3D model, retrieving data from database.},

Abstract = {Besides source code, the fundamental source of information about Open
   Source Software lies in documentation, and other non source code files,

   future maintenance and evolution tasks.
   DMOSS1 is a toolkit designed to systematically assess the quality of non

   package as an attribute tree, and performs several tree traverse
   algorithms through a set of plugins, specialized in retrieving specific
   metrics from text, gathering information about the software. These
   metrics are later used to infer knowledge about the software, and
   composed together to build reports that assess the quality of specific
   features of the software.
   This paper discusses the motivations for this work, continues with a
   description of the toolkit implementation and design goals. Follows an
   example of its usage to process a software package, and the produced
   report. Finally some final remarks and trends for future work are

Abstract = {Project management traditionally has a strong focus on human reporting
   that fits well a tightly coupled form of organization to ensure the
   quality of project reporting. For loosely coupled forms of organization,
   such as open source systems (OSS) development projects, there are very
   few approaches to ensure the quality of project reporting; a promising
   approach can be to augment human reporting with data analysis based on
   the communication and state changes in an OSS project. In this paper we
   propose a concept and an initial measurement approach for event-based
   monitoring of OSS projects to better understand the actual benefit of
   tool-supported gathering, correlating and analyzing processes event data
   from the OSS community as a supplement for traditional software project
   monitoring data collection. We report on an empirical feasibility study
   investigating success and risk indicators of five OSS projects listed in
   the Apache Incubator.},

Abstract = {In today's world, the heart of modern technology is software. In order
   to compete with pace of new technology, changes in software are

   in a class earlier in the software life cycle which would result in
   better effort allocation, more rigorous testing and easier maintenance
   of any software. Earlier, researchers have used various techniques such
   as statistical methods for the prediction of change-prone classes. In
   this article, some new metrics such as execution time, frequency, run
   time information, popularity and class dependency are proposed which can
   help in prediction of change prone classes. For evaluating the
   performance of the prediction model, the authors used Sensitivity,
   Specificity, and ROC Curve. Higher values of AUC indicate the prediction
   model gives significant accurate results. The proposed metrics
   contribute to the accurate prediction of change-prone classes.},

Abstract = {Informed energy decision making requires effective software,

   Developing these resources can be expensive and time consuming. Even
   when data and tools are intended for public re-use they often come with

   promise of open, publically accessible software and data as well as
   crowdsourcing techniques to develop robust energy analysis tools that
   can deliver crucial, policy-relevant insight, particularly in developing
   countries, where planning resources are highly constrained-and the need
   to adapt these resources and methods to the local context is high. We
   survey existing research, which argues that these techniques can produce

Abstract = {Enterprise informatization experiences three phases information islet
   modeling, intranet modeling and integrated enterprise modeling. The
   traditional market failure argument suggests that innovation is
   characterized by high investment and low copy cost, and firms have
   difficulty in internalizing the fruits of their innovative effort. Thus,
   technology firms are seeking more patents, expanding their scope and
   overhauling their business models around intellectual property. Yet
   paradoxically, with the progress and development of information
   technology, open source software (OSS) plays an important role in
   expanding enterprise informatization. For example, Linux is developed
   quickly by this open way. Some firms have found the ways of making money
   by opening up their treasure-chest of innovation and sharing it with
   others. The rise of open-source software is one example. In this
   article, the author introduces a model of OSS based on its network
   effects to understand how the enterprises decide their activities in
   this open market competition. This article describes the inherent
   reasons of open source movement from the view of the oligopoly
   structure. At the same time, this article analyses the effect of leader
   enterprise and follower enterprise on market structure and the different
   activities of these enterprises after the source has been opened.
   Finally, we make suggestions that companies at the leading edge are
   often in such a strong position that they do need the support of
   down-streams companies to broaden their technologies successfully and to
   decrease their risks in order to leverage the value of the technological
   portfolio. On the other hand, this article suggests that follower
   enterprises have incentive to take part in the development of
   open-source software only when the market has grown up.},

   that there is no-one-size-fit-all to open source software adoption

   show that technical benefits, vendor independence and customization are
   considered to be important for open source software adoption in public

   organizations perceive open source software as one step towards vendor
   independence, customization is considered a very important benefit of
   open source software adoption in Asia than is the case in America.},

Abstract = {We present a dataset of open source software developed mainly by
   enterprises rather than volunteers. This can be used to address known
   generalizability concerns, and, also, to perform research on open source
   business software development. Based on the premise that an enterprise's
   employees are likely to contribute to a project developed by their
   organization using the email account provided by it, we mine domain
   names associated with enterprises from open data sources as well as
   through white- and blacklisting, and use them through three heuristics
   to identify 17 264 enterprise GitHub projects. We provide these as a
   dataset detailing their provenance and properties. A manual evaluation
   of a dataset sample shows an identification accuracy of 89\%. Through an
   exploratory data analysis we found that projects are staffed by a
   plurality of enterprise insiders, who appear to be pulling more than
   their weight, and that in a small percentage of relatively large
   projects development happens exclusively through enterprise insiders.},

Abstract = {Algorithm visualizations are widely viewed as having the potential for
   major impact on computer science education, but their quality is highly
   variable. We report on the software development practices used by
   creators of algorithm visualizations, based on data that can be inferred
   from a catalog of over 600 algorithm visualizations. Since nearly all
   are free for use and many provide source code, they might be construed
   as being open source software. Yet many AV developers do not appear to
   have used open source best practices. We discuss how such development
   practices might be employed by the algorithm visualization community,
   and how they might lead to improved algorithm visualizations in the
   future. We conclude with a discussion of OpenDSA, an open-source project
   that builds on earlier progress in the field of algorithm visualization
   and hopes to use open-source procedures to gain users and contributors.

Abstract = {Software systems represent one of the most complex man-made artifacts.
   Understanding the structure of software systems can provide useful
   insights into software engineering efforts and can potentially help the
   development of complex system models applicable to other domains. In
   this paper, we analyze one of the most popular open-source Linux meta
   packages/distributions called the Gentoo Linux. In our analysis, we
   model software packages as nodes and dependencies among them as edges.
   Our empirical results show that the resulting Gentoo network cannot be
   easily explained by existing complex network models. This in turn
   motivates our research in developing two new network growth models in
   which a new node is connected to an old node with the probability that
   depends not only on the degree but also on the ``age{''} of the old
   node. Through computational and empirical studies, we demonstrate that
   our models have better explanatory power than the existing ones. In an
   effort to further explore the properties of these new models, we also
   present some related analytical results. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All

Abstract = {Research confirms that commercial OSS exists in many different ways
   according to its revenue model, type of license, development style,
   number of participating firms, number of participating volunteers or
   governance mode. In order to differentiate between an increasing variety
   of commercialization approaches, one may distinguish between projects
   with one dominating company, so called single vendor projects and those
   where more than one company is active, so called multi vendor projects.
   Furthermore, in order to structure different approaches, a project's
   history is equally of importance in terms of whether a project was
   initiated by a firm or a community. In this paper, we therefore analyze
   and compare single and multi vendor as well as firm initiated and
   community initiated OSS projects with regard to technical contribution
   of voluntary and paid project members. Based on a dataset build upon
   Eclipse projects we expose, that the number of paid members is
   significantly higher in firm initiated and multi vendor projects.},

Year = {2020},
Volume = {8},
Number = {3},
Pages = {438-465},
Month = {SEP-DEC},
Abstract = {Objective of the study: The article analyzes the case of GNOME, one of
   the most popular Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects,
   started in 1997. The concept of peer governance describes the
   interaction and convergence of companies, foundations, voluntary users
   and professionals in its development.
   Methodology/approach: The research is based on the documentary method
   and an organizational history approach. For this, primary and secondary
   digital sources were collected: institutional and FLOSS sites, blogs,
   community lists, documents and platforms.
   Originality/Relevance: The work allows progress, from a sociotechnical
   perspective, in understanding FLOSS developments and the coevolution of
   their technical components and community dynamics.
   Main results: Three levels of governance are identified: 1. the software
   itself; 2. the community; 3. the ecosystem. Development cycles;
   community participation and organization; actors and business models,
   definitions and controversies, are analyzed. GNOME's trajectory is
   marked by the confluence of interests and coopetition between corporate
   actors and the FLOSS ecosystem. The life cycle shows a constant
   activity, which implies redefinition of its components, technological
   infrastructure and leadership. It is not exempt from controversies and
   bifurcations, similar to those evidenced in projects of this type.
   Theoretical/methodological contributions: It contributes to the concept
   of peer governance and its usefulness for case analysis. Reflection on
   data sources and research resources on the Internet is promoted.
   Social/managerial contributions: It contributes to the understanding of
   new forms of management and decision-making in technological development
   projects.},

Abstract = {Most studies of software evolution have been performed on systems
   developed within a single company using traditional management
   techniques. With the widespread availability of several large software
   systems that have been developed using an ``open source{''} development
   approach, we now have a chance to examine these systems in detail, and
   see if their evolutionary narratives are significantly different from
   commercially developed systems. This paper summarizes our preliminary
   investigations into the evolution of the best known open source system:
   the Linux operating system kernel. Because Linux is large (over two
   million lines of code in the most recent version) and because its
   development model is not as tightly planned and managed as most
   industrial software processes, we had expected to find that Linux was
   growing more slowly as it got bigger and more complex. Instead, we have
   found that Linux has been growing at a super-linear rate for several
   years. In this paper; we explore the evolution of the Linux kernel both
   at the system level and within the major subsystems, and we discuss why
   we think Linux continues to exhibit such strong growth.},

Abstract = {Introduction. Virtual communities play an important role in innovation.
   The paper focuses on the particular form of collective action in virtual
   communities underlying as Open Source software development projects.
   Method. Building on resource mobilization theory and private-collective
   innovation, we propose a theory of collective action in innovative
   virtual communities. We identify three communal resources ( reputation,
   control over technology and learning opportunities) that appear as a
   byproduct while developing open source software.
   Analysis. Constructs are derived from exiting literature. Empirical data
   from Freenet, an open source software project for peer-to-peer software,
   illustrates both the levels of involvement and the communal resources.
   Results \&
   conclusions. Communal resources are able to solve the collective action
   dilemma for virtual communities. We show that they increase in value for
   individuals along with their involvement in the community.},

   adapt a dynamic private-provision-of-public-goods model to reflect key
   aspects of the OSS phenomenon, such as play value or homo ludens payoff,
   user-programmers' and gift culture benefits. Such intrinsic motives
   feature extensively in the wider OSS literature and contribute new

   misses out on when choosing one alternative over another. This concept
   is used to explain rational decision making in a scenario where multiple
   mutually exclusive alternative choices can be made. In this paper, we
   explore this concept in the realm of open-source software. We look at
   the different ways for measuring the cost and these can be used to
   support decisions involving open-source software. We review literature
   on opportunity cost use in decision support in software development
   process. We explain how the opportunity cost analysis in the realm of
   open-source software can be used for supporting architectural decisions
   within software projects. We demonstrate that different measures of
   costs can be used to mitigate problems (and maintenance complexity)
   arising from the use of open source software, allowing for better

Abstract = {There are a number of reasons that encourage the use of open source
   software `OSS' such as: cost savings, fast time-to-market and
   high-quality software{[}1]. Various organizations have considered the
   use of free software in their IT infrastructure for economic, security
   or other reasons. With a large number of free software available on the
   internet, choosing the best one has become a daunting task. In order to
   solve this problem, different methods have been proposed. In this paper,
   we propose a new method to ``measure the maturity of free software{''}
   which is relevant and easy to be adopted especially for small and medium
   enterprises. To evaluate our approach, we tested it in more than twenty
   companies in order to choose the best free software that will meet their
   real needs.},

Abstract = {To date, 3D organ modeling has not reached widespread clinical use,
   despite showing promise in medical literature. The majority of anatomic
   modeling that is presented in the literature is performed with
   proprietary software, presenting certain barriers to use, such as price
   for usage rights. Open-source software not only circumvents this
   barrier, but also often provides greater customization offered by global
   communities. In this proof-of-concept experiment, a HeartMate II LVAD
   inflow cannula was ``virtually fit{''} in a patient's left ventricle
   using only open-source software. Open-source programs provide a
   legitimate alternative to the proprietary software options.},

Abstract = {The methods for electrophysiology in neuroscience have evolved
   tremendously over the recent years with a growing emphasis on
   dense-array signal recordings. Such increased complexity and augmented
   wealth in the volume of data recorded, have not been accompanied by
   efforts to streamline and facilitate access to processing methods, which
   too are susceptible to grow in sophistication. Moreover, unsuccessful
   attempts to reproduce peer-reviewed publications indicate a problem of
   transparency in science. This growing problem could be tackled by
   unrestricted access to methods that promote research transparency and
   data sharing, ensuring the reproducibility of published results. Here,
   we provide a free, extensive, open-source software that provides
   data-analysis, data-management and multi-modality integration solutions
   for invasive neurophysiology. Users can perform their entire analysis
   through a user-friendly environment without the need of programming
   skills, in a tractable (logged) way. This work contributes to
   open-science, analysis standardization, transparency and reproducibility
   in invasive neurophysiology.},

   apart from the standards initiatives? From standards literature we
   distil four categories of coordinative mechanisms, and illustrate their

Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Licensing is the defining characteristic of open source software (OSS)
   and often has tremendous impact on the success of OSS projects. However,
   OSS licenses are very different from those for proprietary software, and
   our understanding of the choice of OSS licenses is very limited. In this
   study, we explore this important decision from a learning perspective.
   We build collaboration networks and trace paths through which potential
   learning and knowledge flow across projects using a dataset derived from
   SourceForge. We identify that both experiential learning and vicarious
   learning have significant influence on OSS license choice. We provide
   reasons why experiential learning and vicarious learning affect
   decision-making regarding OSS license choice, and explore important
   contingencies under which the two modes of learning are more effective.
   We find that leadership roles on prior projects and similarities between
   projects significantly moderate these two modes of learning,
   respectively. More importantly, we argue and empirically illustrate that
   experiential learning is more effective than vicarious learning in
   influencing OSS license choice. Our research sheds new light on our
   understanding of license choice for OSS projects and provides practical
   guidelines for future OSS development.},

Abstract = {In this paper we present a theoretical model to study the
   characteristics and the commercial sustainability of dual licensing, an
   open source (OS) business strategy that has gained popularity among
   software vendors. With dual licensing, a firm releases the same software
   product under both a traditional proprietary license and an open source
   one. We show that the decision to employ a dual licensing strategy
   occurs whenever the feedbacks of the open source community are valuable
   enough compared to the quality of the software that the firm is able to
   develop in-house. Our analysis points to the central role of an
   appropriate managing of OS licenses in order to balance the pros and
   cons of ``going open source{''} and to make this versioning strategy
   viable for software vendors; our analysis also suggests a possible
   explanation for the observed proliferation of open source licenses. (C)

Abstract = {Open-source software (OSS) has been widely used in the process of
   software development for the purpose of shortening the process
   development and reducing its costs. The growing process of OSS has put
   out new ways for development, distribution and correspondence of
   software in organizations. Countries under international sanctions are
   facing extreme limitations over financial transactions and technology
   transmissions with different countries; therefore, individuals and
   companies working in such territories are involved with legal
   limitations and limits of copyright as to using and having access to
   software. This research seeks to evaluate the acceptance of OSS in a
   country under sanction, that's to say Iran. In this research the
   developed value-based acceptance model has been used. The statistical
   population of the study was individuals active in software and
   information technology industry in Iran. The sampling method was
   convenience sampling. The results indicated that the sanction has a
   significant effect on the perceived value of OSS (beta = 0.72, p =
   0.000) and eventually its usage. Besides, usefulness (beta = 0.69, p =
   0.001), perceived enjoyment (beta = 0.54, p = 0.000) and facilitating
   conditions (beta = 0.58, p = 0.002) are considered as factors effective
   in applying OSS. As a result, one of the solutions of technology
   development in sanctioned organizations is to use OSS.},

Abstract = {Many successful open-source projects have been developed by programmers
   who were employed by firms but worked on open-source projects on the
   side because of economic incentives like career improvement benefits.
   Such side work may be a good thing for the employing firms, too, if they
   get some strategic value from the open-source software and if the
   productivity of the programmers on these projects improves through
   learning-by-doing effects. However, the programmers may work more or
   less on these projects than what is best for the firms. To manage the
   programmers' efforts, the firms set appropriate employment policies and
   incentives. These policies and career concerns then together govern the
   programmers' effort allocation between the open-source and proprietary
   projects. We examine this relationship using a variant of the
   principal/agent model. We derive and characterize optimal employment
   contracts and show that firms either offer a bonus for only one of the
   two projects or do not offer any bonuses. However, if attractive
   alternate employment opportunities are available, they change their
   strategy and may offer bonuses for both projects simultaneously.},

Abstract = {The Open Source (OS) platform is a new paradigm for software development
   in which several parties serve as volunteers in the design, coding,
   testing, debugging, distribution, and documentation of OS software
   projects. Open source software (OSS) is experiencing an exponential
   growth in several industries such as finance, sales and marketing,
   pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing. However, the adoption of OSS in
   healthcare has been slow despite the availability of several quality
   applications for the healthcare industry. In this paper, we outline the
   salient characteristics of OSS, including the development process for
   OSS, license types, and revenue models, and then discuss major factors
   that affect the uptake of OSS by organizations. With a detailed
   discussion of BI (Business Intelligence) and other open source
   applications available in healthcare, we conclude that the adoption of
   OSS in healthcare requires a comprehensive understanding of not only the
   needs of the healthcare sector, the types and complexities of OS
   applications, and how they interact with various organizational factors.},

Abstract = {This paper contributes to the open source software (OSS) literature by
   investigating the likelihood that a participant becomes a project
   leader. Project leaders are key actors in a virtual community and are
   crucial to the success of the OSS model. Knowledge of the forces that
   lead to the emergence of project managers among the multitude of
   participants is still limited. We aim to fill this gap in the literature
   by analyzing the association between the roles played by an individual
   who is registered with a project, and a set of individual-level and
   project-level characteristics. In line with the theory of occupational
   choice elaborated by (Lazear, E.P., 2002. Entrepreneurship. NBER Working
   Paper No. 9109, Cambridge, Mass; Lazear, E.P., 2004. Balanced skills and
   entrepreneurship, American Economic Review 94, pp. 208-211), we find
   that OSS project leaders possess diversified skill sets which are needed
   to select the inputs provided by various participants, motivate
   contributors, and coordinate their efforts. Specialists, like pure
   developers, are endowed with more focused skill sets. Moreover, we find
   that the degree of modularity of the development process is positively
   associated with the presence of project leaders. That result is
   consistent with the modern theory of modular production (Baldwin, C.Y.,

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) development is distributed across actors and
   artifacts and involves translating diffuse representations into distinct
   sets of contiguous code artifacts. Despite the highly distributed and
   dynamic nature of OSS development, it is often described in unitary,
   monolithic terms - an unfortunate situation which masks considerable
   variance across OSS development processes. Therefore we explore reasons
   for systematic variance in these processes so as to enable more
   effective OSS development practices. Drawing on theory of distributed
   cognition, we develop a language of cognitive translations, which occur
   within and across distributed social arrangements and structural
   conditions of sharing knowledge. This language provides
   micro-foundations for understanding how different modes of OSS
   development emerge. Through examining how generative characteristics of
   social and structural distributions in OSS shape distinct development
   pathways, we propose a theoretically derived typology explaining the
   characteristics, dynamics, and conditions for success of different modes
   of OSS development.},

Abstract = {Developing an Open Source Software application is a challenge. Mainly
   because there are commercial alternatives that have an army of expert
   developers behind them, experienced supporters and wellestablished
   business processes in their development and promotion. Nevertheless,
   web-based applications, that securely handle the users' personal data
   are an area of freedom and ease of use, features that make such
   applications very attractive. The ``ease-of-use{''} part is very hard to
   achieve, for the developers and the end-users. Dependencies change often
   in OSS packages, so the fear that something breaks is always around the
   corner.
   If the application looks attractive, additional user requirements fall
   like rain. This poses a problem of continuity, maintenance and
   operational quality of the packages. In this paper and presentation we
   shall share our experience in building such a tool, using
   https://cern.ch/slides, as a showcase and a learning exercise. We shall
   describe what was available, what was missing, how it was put together,
   how much effort it took, and what was achieved.},

Title = {Open Source Software to Control Bioflo Bioreactors},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {9},
Number = {3},
Month = {MAR 25},
Abstract = {Bioreactors are designed to support highly controlled environments for
   growth of tissues, cell cultures or microbial cultures. A variety of
   bioreactors are commercially available, often including sophisticated
   software to enhance the functionality of the bioreactor. However,
   experiments that the bioreactor hardware can support, but that were not
   envisioned during the software design cannot be performed without
   developing custom software. In addition, support for third party or
   custom designed auxiliary hardware is often sparse or absent. This work
   presents flexible open source freeware for the control of bioreactors of
   the Bioflo product family. The functionality of the software includes
   setpoint control, data logging, and protocol execution. Auxiliary
   hardware can be easily integrated and controlled through an integrated
   plugin interface without altering existing software. Simple experimental
   protocols can be entered as a CSV scripting file, and a Python-based
   protocol execution model is included for more demanding conditional
   experimental control. The software was designed to be a more flexible
   and free open source alternative to the commercially available solution.
   The source code and various auxiliary hardware plugins are publicly
   available for download from
   https://github.com/LibourelLab/BiofloSoftware. In addition to the source
   code, the software was compiled and packaged as a self-installing file
   for 32 and 64 bit windows operating systems. The compiled software will
   be able to control a Bioflo system, and will not require the
   installation of LabVIEW.},

Abstract = {Traditionally, research on quality attributes was either kept under
   wraps within the organization that performed it, or carried out by
   outsiders using narrow, black-box techniques. The emergence of open
   source software has changed this picture allowing us to evaluate both
   software products and the processes that yield them. Thus, the software
   source code and the associated data stored in the version control
   system, the bug tracking databases, the mailing lists, and the wikis
   allow us to evaluate quality in a transparent way. Even better, the
   large number of (often competing) open source projects makes it possible
   to contrast the quality of comparable systems serving the same domain.
   Furthermore, by combining historical source code snapshots with
   significant events, such as bug discoveries and fixes, we can further
   dig into the causes and effects of problems. Here we present motivating
   examples, tools, and techniques that can be used to evaluate the quality
   of open source (and by extension also proprietary) software.},

   measured by the number of commits made per organization per project, and
   iii) technical - measured by the number of commits made per given
   software file type. Success was measured by means of i) economic
   metrics, including the number of corporate adoptions and the number of
   jobs postings including the project name, and ii) development metrics,
   including the project popularity and the growth of the intensity of
   members' activity. The paper makes two main contributions. First, we
   contribute to the literature on open source software and diversity.
   Second, we introduce economic success metrics to the empirical
   assessment of open source software project success.},

   was used to code the qualitative data from the open-ended questions in
   the survey and the interviews. The results indicate that learning in
   online open-source software communities encompasses much more than just
   learning about the software being discussed. 283 Open-source forum
   participants were surveyed, and 21 were interviewed to develop an
   understanding of the challenges to learning in these communities as well
   as to identify the practices that promote learning. Identifying these
   practices helps to understand online learning and enables the

   912 individual programmers and 110 involved firms and show how those
   different projects are governed in terms of project leadership. Our four
   hypotheses show that despite the wish for external knowledge from
   voluntary programmers firms are relying on own resources or those from
   other firms to control a project, that projects with low firm
   participation are mainly led by voluntary committers, and that projects
   with high firm participation are mainly led by paid leaders. This
   research extends the dominating literature by providing empirical
   evidence in that area and helps to deepen our understanding of firm

Abstract = {The amount of open-source-software (OSS) used in the global software
   engineering community is already enormous and still growing. This
   includes both the products we develop and the development tools we use
   to create them. It is meanwhile rare to find examples of products that
   do not contain open source components. Although, using open source
   components in products does have many advantages, it is very important
   that one also manages the use of the open source components in a
   license-compliant way.
   A set of companies and other organizations who either offer or use
   OSS-based license compliance tools have recently formed the ``Open
   Source Tooling Group{''}. This international group works on establishing
   an ecosystem of OSS-based tools for license compliance that fit together
   well and can offer an ecosystem of tools for organizations to help
   fulfill their license compliance obligations.
   This talk provides the motivation and overview of this topic describing
   the relevance to software engineering practitioners. It will close by
   highlighting some of the research areas where further improvements could
   be done in this fast-growing field.},

Abstract = {The adoption of open source software (OSS) by government has been a
   topic of interest in recent years. National, regional, and local
   government are using OSS in increasing numbers, yet the adoption rate is
   still very low. This study considers if it is possible from an
   organizational perspective for small to medium-sized cities to provide
   services and conduct business using only open source software (OSS). We
   examine characteristics of municipal government that may influence the
   adoption of OSS for the delivery of services and to conduct city
   business. Three characteristics are considered to develop an
   understanding of city behavior with respect to OSS: capability,
   discipline, and cultural affinity. Each of these general characteristics
   contributes to the successful adoption and deployment of OSS by cities.
   Our goal was to determine the organizational characteristics that
   promote the adoption of OSS. We conducted a survey to support this study
   resulting in 3316 responses representing 1286 cities in the Unites
   States and Canada. We found most cities do not have the requisite
   characteristics to successfully adopt OSS on a comprehensive scale and
   most cities not currently using OSS have not future plans for OSS.},

   Analyses},
Journal = {MATHEMATICS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {11},
Number = {21},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {In the fields of structural and geotechnical engineering, improving the
   understanding of soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects is critical
   for earthquake-resistant design. Engineers and practitioners often
   resort to finite element (FE) software to advance this objective.
   Unfortunately, the availability of software equipped with boundary
   representation for absorbing scattered waves and ensuring consistent
   input ground motion prescriptions, which is necessary for accurately
   representing SSI effects, is currently limited. To address such
   limitations, the authors developed Seismo-VLAB (SVL v1.0-stable) an
   open-source software designed to perform SSI simulations. The
   methodology considers the integration of advanced techniques, including
   the domain decomposition method (DDM), perfectly matched layers (PMLs),
   and domain reduction method (DRM), in addition to parallel computing
   capabilities to accelerate the solution of large-scale problems. In this
   work, the authors provide a detailed description of the implementation
   for addressing SSI modeling, validate some of the SVL's features needed
   for such purpose, and demonstrate that the coupled DRM-PML technique is
   a necessary condition for accurately solving SSI problems. It is
   expected that SVL provides a significant contribution to the SSI

Title = {OptFlux: an open-source software platform for <i>in silico</i> metabolic
   engineering},
Journal = {BMC SYSTEMS BIOLOGY},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {4},
Month = {APR 19},
Abstract = {Background: Over the last few years a number of methods have been
   proposed for the phenotype simulation of microorganisms under different
   environmental and genetic conditions. These have been used as the basis
   to support the discovery of successful genetic modifications of the
   microbial metabolism to address industrial goals. However, the use of
   these methods has been restricted to bioinformaticians or other expert
   researchers. The main aim of this work is, therefore, to provide a
   user-friendly computational tool for Metabolic Engineering applications.
   Results: OptFlux is an open-source and modular software aimed at being
   the reference computational application in the field. It is the first
   tool to incorporate strain optimization tasks, i.e., the identification
   of Metabolic Engineering targets, using Evolutionary
   Algorithms/Simulated Annealing metaheuristics or the previously proposed
   OptKnock algorithm. It also allows the use of stoichiometric metabolic
   models for (i) phenotype simulation of both wild-type and mutant
   organisms, using the methods of Flux Balance Analysis, Minimization of
   Metabolic Adjustment or Regulatory on/off Minimization of Metabolic flux
   changes, (ii) Metabolic Flux Analysis, computing the admissible flux
   space given a set of measured fluxes, and (iii) pathway analysis through
   the calculation of Elementary Flux Modes.
   OptFlux also contemplates several methods for model simplification and
   other pre-processing operations aimed at reducing the search space for
   optimization algorithms.
   The software supports importing/exporting to several flat file formats
   and it is compatible with the SBML standard. OptFlux has a visualization
   module that allows the analysis of the model structure that is
   compatible with the layout information of Cell Designer, allowing the
   superimposition of simulation results with the model graph.
   Conclusions: The OptFlux software is freely available, together with
   documentation and other resources, thus bridging the gap from research
   in strain optimization algorithms and the final users. It is a valuable
   platform for researchers in the field that have available a number of
   useful tools. Its open-source nature invites contributions by all those
   interested in making their methods available for the community.
   Given its plug-in based architecture it can be extended with new
   functionalities. Currently, several plug-ins are being developed,
   including network topology analysis tools and the integration with
   Boolean network based regulatory models.},

Title = {New Developer Metrics for Open Source Software Development Challenges:
   An Empirical Study of Project Recommendation Systems},
Journal = {APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {11},
Number = {3},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Software collaboration platforms where millions of developers from
   diverse locations can contribute to the common open source projects have
   recently become popular. On these platforms, various information is
   obtained from developer activities that can then be used as developer
   metrics to solve a variety of challenges. In this study, we proposed new
   developer metrics extracted from the issue, commit, and pull request
   activities of developers on GitHub. We created developer metrics from
   the individual activities and combined certain activities according to
   some common traits. To evaluate these metrics, we created an item-based
   project recommendation system. In order to validate this system, we
   calculated the similarity score using two methods and assessed top-n hit
   scores using two different approaches. The results for all scores with
   these methods indicated that the most successful metrics were
   binary\_issue\_related, issue\_commented, binary\_pr\_related, and
   issue\_opened. To verify our results, we compared our metrics with
   another metric generated from a very similar study and found that most
   of our metrics gave better scores that metric. In conclusion, the issue
   feature is more crucial for GitHub compared with other features.
   Moreover, commenting activity in projects can be equally as valuable as
   code contributions. The most of binary metrics that were generated,
   regardless of the number of activities, also showed remarkable results.
   In this context, we presented improvable and noteworthy developer
   metrics that can be used for a wide range of open-source software
   development challenges, such as user characterization, project
   recommendation, and code review assignment.},

Abstract = {A software ecosystem consists of a software platform, a set of internal
   and external developers and domain experts in service to a community of
   users that compose relevant solution elements to satisfy their needs.
   Open source is well-known for its potential to frame software ecosystems
   with its networking tendency and provision for further customization
   with access to software source code. Open source is increasingly
   becoming the choice for health information system implementations in low
   resource settings.
   This longitudinal case study was designed to study the research
   question, how a software ecosystem is being built around an open source
   health information system implementation. Empirically the study was
   positioned in a multi-sector initiative identifying and support
   nutritionally at-risk households to eliminating malnutrition. The
   discussion reveals how new dependencies between health and non-health
   sector actors were created with the emerging software ecosystem based on
   an open source framework and supplementary custom-built web and mobile
   components.},

Title = {Adoption of free/libre open source software in public organizations:
   factors of impact},
Journal = {INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY \& PEOPLE},
Year = {2012},
Volume = {25},
Number = {2},
Pages = {156-187},
Abstract = {Purpose - In this paper the authors aim to investigate the importance of
   factors for the adoption of free/libre open source software (FLOSS) in
   the public sector. They seek to evaluate how different factors impact
   during the initiation and implementation phases of the adoption process.
   Design/methodology/approach - The authors base the methodological
   approach on two exploratory case studies with a contrasting result
   logic. They build a multi-level framework grounded both on literature
   review, and feedback from stakeholders. They then apply the framework to
   two case studies to better frame the findings. They consider phases of
   adoption (initiation, implementation) and the levels of adoption
   (technological, organizational, environmental, individual).
   Findings - In the case studies, the authors found the importance of a
   strong and decision-centric management board to give the impulse for the
   initiation phase of the process. As perceived by the stakeholders, a
   strong governmental support is of paramount importance to increase the
   adoption at the public level, although in the case studies examined the
   initiation stage started from the impulse of a championing management.
   Both case studies passed the initiation phase successfully. Continuous
   employees' training, organizational objectives consensus, and business
   process reengineering have been found important for the implementation
   phase. In the case study in which these factors were not in place, the
   implementation phase of adoption failed. Environmental factors -
   although relevant for the initiation of the adoption process - are less
   significant during the actual implementation of the adoption process, as
   the contrasting result logic from the case studies shows.
   Research limitations/implications - The study refers to two public
   organizations in a specific environmental setting. No causality among
   factors has been inferred. Quantitative objective data have been used to
   determine the success of adoption, for qualitative data multiple sources
   have been used when possible to limit threats to validity.
   Practical implications - The framework can be used by stakeholders in
   public organizations to better frame their adoption strategies and to
   compare results across institutions. Lessons learnt from the case
   studies can be useful to drive future adoptions of FLOSS.
   Originality/value - The framework combines phases of adoption and levels
   making it possible to frame the analysis of the case studies. It has
   been operationalized with a set of metrics, and with a protocol for the
   case studies to increase replicability value.},

Abstract = {Design and evolution of modern information systems is influenced by many
   factors: technical, organizational, social. This is especially true for
   open source software systems (OSSS), when many developers from different
   backgrounds interact, share their ideas and contribute towards the
   development and improvement of a software product. The evolution of an
   OSSS is a continuous process of source code development, adaptation,
   improvement and maintenance. Studying changes to the various
   characteristics of source code can help us understand the evolution of a
   software system. In this paper, the software evolution process is
   analyzed using a proposed Evolution curve (E-curve) method, which is an
   implementation language independent method based on information
   theoretic metrics. The method allows identifying major evolution stages
   of an analyzed software system. The application of E-curves is
   illustrated for eMule, 7zip, and Grip OSSS.},

Title = {Knowledge sharing in open source software communities: motivations and
   management},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {19},
Number = {4},
Pages = {791-813},
Abstract = {Purpose - This paper aims to add to the understanding of knowledge
   sharing in online communities through an investigation of the
   relationship between individual participant's motivations and management
   in open source software (OSS) communities. Drawing on a review of
   literature concerning knowledge sharing in organisations, the factors
   that motivate participants to share their knowledge in OSS communities,
   and the management of such communities, it is hypothesised that the
   quality of management influences the extent to which the motivations of
   members actually result in knowledge sharing.
   Design/methodology/approach - To test the hypothesis, quantitative data
   were collected through an online questionnaire survey of OSS web
   developers with the aim of gathering respondents' opinions concerning
   knowledge sharing, motivations to share knowledge and satisfaction with
   the management of OSS projects. Factor analysis, descriptive analysis,
   correlation analysis and regression analysis were used to explore the
   survey data.
   Findings - The analysis of the data reveals that the individual
   participant's satisfaction with the management of an OSS project is an
   important factor influencing the extent of their personal contribution
   to a community.
   Originality/value - Little attention has been devoted to understanding
   the impact of management in OSS communities. Focused on OSS developers
   specialising in web development, the findings of this paper offer an
   important original contribution to understanding the connections between
   individual members' satisfaction with management and their motivations
   to contribute to an OSS project. The findings reveal that motivations to
   share knowledge in online communities are influenced by the quality of
   management. Consequently, the findings suggest that appropriate
   management can enhance knowledge sharing in OSS projects and online
   communities, and organisations more generally.},

Abstract = {This paper explores how software firms can apply different types of
   governance approaches to open source software development projects
   (OSSDPs) and draws on control theory to propose that firms may influence
   OSSDPs by employing either leadership or resource deployment control. A
   matrix differentiating four types of OSSDPs: firm- versus
   community-initiated projects and one participating firm (single-vendor
   projects) versus many firms (multivendor projects), and accompanying
   hypotheses regarding a firm's participation for each type are developed.
   Using data from 83 Eclipse projects to test the hypotheses, findings
   indicate that (1) firms more actively employ both leadership and
   resource deployment in firm-initiated projects than in
   community-initiated ones and (2) firms are more likely to use resource
   deployment control over leadership control in multivendor projects. Key
   theoretical and managerial implications are discussed. (C) 2015 Elsevier

   presented approaches from three aspects-influencing factors, time
   characteristics and region characteristics. Our analysis used data from
   github and revealed some regular patterns. We found that the code which
   newcomers started to contribute with more people engaged in would lead
   to less contribution in some degree. We also found that there's a
   relation between developers' early and later period contribution. In
   addition, developers from different regions were more likely to have
   dominant relationship. Our findings may provide some support for future

Abstract = {Software generally used by individuals and organizations is proprietary
   software. This kind of software, is closed, available at a cost, and its
   copyright is owned by the organization that develops it. This means that
   the end user does not have access to source code, cannot make changes to
   the software to suit individual needs, and the software cannot be
   redistributed. Open source software, on the other hand, allows its user
   access to source code, thereby allowing them to customize the software
   according to their needs and integrate it with existing software
   infrastructure: and, if need be, redistribute it. Open source software,
   therefore, has potential benefits for government agencies in terms of
   electronic service provision to general public. However, there are many,
   issues around open source software uptake in government agencies, and if
   the adoption of OSS is to be encouraged then these issues have to be
   addressed. This paper presents an account of these issues as identified
   by the government agencies from Australia an New Zealand.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) has come of age, and a number of maturing
   business models allow OSS companies to make a profit even when their
   product is distributed for free. This article considers the dynamics of
   value creation fuelling the proliferation of OSS and examines the
   business model factors that enable value capture. After interviewing
   leaders from over 20 OSS firms and organisations through early 2006, we
   found that three factors were consistently important in defining a
   vendor's adoption of a given business model: software licence choice,
   which takes into account intellectual property ownership; management of
   developer communities; and the unique features of the markets and
   product categories in which the vendor participates. Considering these
   factors, we characterise seven business models. One striking finding is
   that it is rare to find business-model purity. The majority of firms in
   our sample are pursuing either blended business models or multiple
   models simultaneously.},

Journal = {FRONTIERS IN IMMUNOLOGY},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {15},
Month = {APR 2},
Abstract = {Python for Population Genomics (PyPop) is a software package that
   processes genotype and allele data and performs large-scale population
   genetic analyses on highly polymorphic multi-locus genotype data. In
   particular, PyPop tests data conformity to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
   expectations, performs Ewens-Watterson tests for selection, estimates
   haplotype frequencies, measures linkage disequilibrium, and tests
   significance. Standardized means of performing these tests is key for
   contemporary studies of evolutionary biology and population genetics,
   and these tests are central to genetic studies of disease association as
   well. Here, we present PyPop 1.0.0, a new major release of the package,
   which implements new features using the more robust infrastructure of
   GitHub, and is distributed via the industry-standard Python Package
   Index. New features include implementation of the asymmetric linkage
   disequilibrium measures and, of particular interest to the
   immunogenetics research communities, support for modern nomenclature,
   including colon-delimited allele names, and improvements to
   meta-analysis features for aggregating outputs for multiple
   populations.Code available at: https://zenodo.org/records/10080668 and

   of the schema of 195 Free Open Source Software projects. We identify
   families of evolutionary behaviors, or taxa, in FOSS projects. A large
   percentage of the projects demonstrate very few, if any, actions of
   schema evolution. Two other taxa involve the evolution via focused
   actions, with either a single focused maintenance action, or a large
   percentage of evolution activity grouped in no more than a couple
   interventions. Schema evolution also involves moderate, and active
   evolution, with very different volumes of updates to the schema. To the
   best of our knowledge, this is the first study of this kind in the area
   of schema evolution, both in terms of presenting profiles of how
   schemata evolve, and, in terms of the dataset magnitude and the
   generalizability of the findings.},

Abstract = {This paper is about a twofold proposal submitted to the scrutiny of the
   OSS scientific community. It is first argued that OSS should be
   considered a means to establish an industry regulation. The motivation
   of this first proposal is the need for harmonization of the supply chain
   in certain industrial sectors. The Air Traffic Management industry (ATM)
   is the only case considered in this paper. However, it is assumed that
   the regulatory advantage of OSS is not specific to that industry. The
   second proposal is about how to establish such a regulation through OSS.
   It is argued that the legal ownership of the OSS product should be
   assigned to a public organization, preferably to an organization that
   would be dedicated to monitor and promote the evolution of that product.
   The motivation for these proposals is based on the analysis of possible
   scenarios of OSS ownership in the case of ATM. Perspectives concerning
   the preliminary implementation of the proposals are introduced.},

Abstract = {Software evolution relates to how software systems evolve over time.
   With the emergence of the open source paradigm, researchers are provided
   with a wealth of data for open source software evolution analysis. In
   this paper, we present a systematic review of open source software (OSS)
   evolution. The objective of this review is to obtain an overview of the
   existing studies in open source software evolution, with the intention
   of achieving an understanding of how software evolvability (i.e., a
   software system's ability to easily accommodate changes) is addressed
   during development and evolution of open source software. The primary
   studies for this review were identified based on a pre-defined search
   strategy and a multi-step selection process. Based on their research
   topics, we have identified four main categories of themes: software
   trends and patterns, evolution process support, evolvability
   characteristics addressed in OSS evolution, and examining OSS at
   software architecture level. A comprehensive overview and synthesis of
   these categories and related studies is presented as well.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is generally developed by interested
   professionals who have decided to participate in the process. The
   presence of effective leaders who both steer the development and
   motivate the developers is crucial to ensure a successful product. Using
   path-goal theory and built on leadership and motivation theories, we
   proposed and tested a model that can be used to assess the relationship
   between an OSS project leader's leadership style and a developer's
   motivation to contribute to the software development. We specifically
   decomposed the leadership and motivation construct to understand the
   hidden mechanisms by which leadership impacts motivation. A set of
   survey data collected from 118 OSS developers on Sourceforge.net was
   used to test our hypotheses. Our results indicate that leaders'
   transformational leadership is positively related to developers'
   intrinsic motivation and that leaders' active management style is
   positively related to the developers' extrinsic motivation. (C) 2012

Abstract = {Software evolution is the process of developing, maintaining, and
   updating software systems. It is known that the software systems tend to
   increase their complexity and size over their evolution to meet the
   demands required by the users. Due to this fact, researchers have
   increasingly carried out studies on software evolution to understand the
   systems' evolution pattern and propose techniques to overcome inherent
   problems in software evolution. Many of these works collect data but do
   not make them publicly available. Many datasets on software evolution
   are outdated, and/or are small, and some of them do not provide time
   series from software metrics. We propose an extensive software evolution
   dataset with temporal information about open-source Java systems. To
   build this dataset, we proposed a methodology of four steps: selecting
   the systems using a criterion, extracting and measuring their releases,
   and generating their time series. Our dataset contains time series of 46
   software metrics extracted from 46 open-source Java systems, and we make
   it publicly available.},

   24 FLOSS community managers from 22 different communities. Our panel
   identified 16 concerns related to managing EV in FLOSS, which we ranked
   by prevalence. We also describe 65 practices for managing EV in FLOSS.
   Almost three-quarters of these practices are used by at least three
   community managers. We report these practices using a systematic
   presentation that includes context, relationships between practices, and
   concerns that they address. These findings provide a coherent framework
   that can help FLOSS community managers to better manage episodic

Abstract = {The education system of the present day has undergone a great
   revolution, with the enhancement of education technology. Especially in
   the higher education sector, IT is playing a vital role in the
   advancement of teaching and learning practices. Most of the educational
   organizations have already adopted smart learning environment by
   upgrading their infrastructure and with proper capacity building among
   staff members. But in the education sector, sustainability of technology
   is always being a challenge. To develop learning materials, many
   institutions have already started using free and open source software
   (FOSS) tools. FOSS gives freedom to the developer with the provision of
   various customization options as per the requirements of the class or
   subject. Moreover, in the longer run, free and open source software
   could be considered as the best option in education for e-learning
   implementation, for sustainability. There are many tools which are
   available for e-learning resource development. Some of them are
   available online and some are available as an installer for the various
   platform. In order to adapt ICT in education, especially in non-IT
   specialization, the faculty members need the training to learn and
   implement these tools in their classes. But there are many tools, which
   are specially designed for educators with basic knowledge of computers.
   Educators can plan their sessions, based on content, duration as well as
   the level of the subject and the students. This research paper will
   highlight various aspects of the implementation of FOSS, in education by
   using such easy-to-implement tools and techniques. This would provide
   general guidelines for the development of various e-learning solutions
   for technology-enhanced teaching and learning practices in higher
   education.},

Abstract = {The article investigates the allocation of collaborative efforts among
   core developers (maintainers) of open-source software by analyzing
   on-line development traces (logs) for a set of 10 large projects.
   Specifically, we investigate whether the division of labor within
   open-source projects is influenced by characteristics of software code.
   We suggest that the collaboration among maintainers tends to be
   influenced by different measures of code complexity. We interpret these
   findings by providing preliminary evidence that the organization of
   open-source software development would self-adapt to characteristics of
   the code base, in a `stigmergic' manner. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All

Abstract = {There has been a dramatic increase in commercial interest in the
   potential of Open Source Software (OSS) over the past few years.
   However, given the many complex and novel issues that surround the use
   of OSS, the process of OSS adoption is not well-understood. We
   investigated this issue using a framework derived from innovation
   adoption theory which was then validated in an organisation which had
   embarked on a large-scale of adoption of OSS. The framework comprised
   four macro-factors - external environment, organisational context,
   technological context and individual factors. We then investigated these
   factors in a large-scale survey. Overall, the findings suggest a
   significant penetration of OSS with general deployment in two industry
   sectors consultancy/sotware house and service/communication - and more
   limited deployment in government/public sector. However, the existence
   of a coherent and planned IT infrastructure based on proprietary;
   software served to impede adoption of OSS. Finally, individual-relevant
   factors such as support for the general OSS ideology and committed
   personal championship of OSS were found to be significant.},

Abstract = {Nowadays, many software projects are partially or completely open-source
   based. There is an increasing need for companies to participate in
   open-source software (OSS) projects, e. g., in order to benefit from
   open source ecosystems. OSS projects introduce particular challenges
   that have to be understood in order to gain the benefits. One such
   challenge is getting newcomers onboard into the projects effectively.
   Similar challenges may be present in other self-organised, virtual team
   environments. In this paper we present preliminary observations and
   results of in-progress research that studies the process of onboarding
   into virtual OSS teams. The study is based on a program created and
   conceived at Stanford University in conjunction with Facebook's
   Education Modernization program. It involves the collaboration of more
   than a dozen international universities and nine open source projects.
   More than 120 students participated in 2013. The students have been
   introduced to and supported by mentors experienced in the participating
   OSS projects. Our findings indicate that mentoring is an important
   factor for effective onboarding in OSS projects, promoting cohesion
   within distributed teams and maintaining an appropriate pace.},

Abstract = {The unprecedented volume of big data being routinely generated for
   nonmodel crop species, coupled with advanced technology enabling the use
   of big data in breeding, gives further impetus for the need to have
   access to crop community databases, where all relevant data are curated
   and integrated. Funding for such databases is, however, insufficient and
   intermittent, resulting in the data being underutilized. While increased
   awareness of the importance of funding databases is important, it is
   practically necessary to find a more efficient way to build a community
   database. To meet the need for integrated database resources for various
   crop genomics, genetics, and breeding research communities, we have
   built five crop databases over the last decade using an open-source
   database platform and software. We describe the system and methods used
   for database construction, curation, and analysis protocols, and the
   data and tools that are available in these five crop databases.Database

   among key quality characteristics alongside performance, security and
   reliability. To achieve our objective, we selected three complex, widely
   used target applications for which access to their entire development
   history and source code was available. To enable cross-application
   comparison, we restricted our selection to GUI-driven software developed
   on the Java platform. We focused our examination on released versions,
   resulting in 111 software releases included in our case study. These
   covered more than 10 years of development for each of the applications.
   For each version, we determined its maintainability using three distinct
   quantitative models of varying complexity. We examined the relation
   between software size and maintainability and studied the main drivers
   of important changes to software maintainability. We contextualized our
   findings using manual source code examination. We also carried out a
   finer grained evaluation at package level to determine the distribution
   of maintainability issues within application source code. Finally, we
   provided a cross-application analysis in order to identify common as
   well as application-specific patterns.},

Volume = {1},
Number = {4},

Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Purpose Open source software (oss) development for medical imaging
   enables collaboration of individuals and groups to produce high-quality
   tools that meet user needs. This process is reviewed and illustrated
   with OsiriX, a fast DICOM viewer program for the Apple Macintosh.
   Materials and methods OsiriX is an oss for the Apple Macintosh under Mac
   OS X v10.4 or higher specifically designed for navigation and
   visualization of multimodality and multidimensional images: 2D Viewer,
   3D Viewer, 4D Viewer (3D series with temporal dimension, for example:
   Cardiac-CT) and 5D Viewer (3D series with temporal and functional
   dimensions, for example: Cardiac-PET-CT). The 3D Viewer offers all
   modern rendering modes: multiplanar reconstruction, surface rendering,
   volume rendering and maximum Intensity projection. All these modes
   support 4D data and are able to produce image fusion between two
   different series (for example: PET-CT). OsiriX was developed using the
   Apple Xcode development environment and Cocoa framework as both a DICOM
   PACS workstation for medical imaging and an image processing software
   package for medical research (radiology and nuclear imaging), functional
   imaging, 3D imaging, confocal microscopy and molecular imaging.
   Results OsiriX is an open source program by Antoine Rosset, a
   radiologist and software developer, was designed specifically for the
   needs of advanced imaging modalities. The software program turns an
   Apple Macintosh into a DICOM PACS workstation for medical imaging and
   image processing. OsiriX is distributed free of charge under the GNU
   General Public License and its source code is available to anyone. This
   system illustrates how open software development for medical imaging
   tools can be successfully designed, implemented and disseminated.
   Conclusion oss development can provide useful cost effective tools
   tailored to specific needs and clinical tasks. The integrity and quality
   assurance of open software developed by a community of users does not
   follow the traditional conformance and certification required for
   commercial medical software programs. However, open software can lead to
   innovative solutions designed by users better suited for specific tasks.},

Abstract = {Cloud computing technology usage has emerged as a prominent field in

   3As-AnyTime, AnyWhere and AnyDevice concept changed the industry towards
   user-centric needs to collaborate and connect with people, which makes
   software industries to adopt the cloud-based development environment.
   This created the scope for educationist to enable the students with the
   skills related to cloud computing technology. A course on distributed
   and cloud computing is introduced at the undergraduate level for
   catering to this. The authors discuss the challenges faced in
   teaching-learning cloud computing technology and the method followed to
   overcome these. The two main challenges are designing the course content
   and adopting suitable open source infrastructure tools for hands-on
   experience. The authors have put efforts in adoption and usage of cloud
   computing in undergraduate engineering level by proposing a modified
   Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). This model helped to identify
   different parameters/attributes to improve academic performance. An
   activity-based laboratory course is designed in line with the theory
   course. All the activities are implemented using the open source
   software environment. The activities planned in the course are assessed
   based on the outcome based evaluation. The graduate attribute addressed
   in the course are domain knowledge gain in cloud computing concepts,
   problem-solving, usage of modern tools and life-long learning. The
   average attainment of the stated graduate attribute is 77.89\% in the
   course internal semester assessment. The effectiveness of proposed
   method is validated by defining hypotheses relating to the research
   questions framed. Results prominently speak about the advantage of TAM
   and its implementation in the course.},

Title = {Building 3D GIS data models using open source software},
Journal = {APPLIED GEOMATICS},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {5},
Number = {2},
Pages = {119-132},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Today, many GIS applications would require data sets containing full 3D
   data; application fields like urban and town planning, civil protection,
   cadastres and environmental studies could use full 3D data, both to
   carry out spatial analyses and inquiries as well as for only
   visualization. Data model can be accessed by desktop application as well
   as from Internet. This second option is becoming today the most
   requested. But in order to share 3D data model through Internet it is
   necessary to configure a suitable system. A 3D model can be shared on
   Internet in different ways. It is possible to incorporate a model inside
   an executable or 3D PDF file or build something like a multimedia
   application (i.e. flash based). However a better option is to put a
   model inside a geospatial database and build suitable web services to
   access it using Internet browsers. This second option can be performed
   using different solutions for web servers, development platforms and
   programming languages. Fundamental for this option is the construction
   of the model that should be structured, according a conceptual model to
   be replicable and interoperable. Hence, the model should be stored in a
   geospatial database in order to be accessed by an application running
   under a web server, so allowing access to the model. All this is the
   object of the research-Management and use of distributed 3D data by open
   source WebGIS software-that is part of the Italian PRIN 2007 research
   project: Interoperability and cooperative management of geographic,
   dynamic, multi-dimensional and distributed data with Free and Open
   Source GIS (Principal investigator Paolo Zatelli), aimed to build urban
   and suburban 3D models with CAD software or solid modellers, share them
   with a 3D Web Feature Service Open Geospatial Consortium web feature
   service like, and them using Internet browsers all done using only free
   and open source software. The research work, here illustrated, which was
   funded by previous research project, deals with the construction of a
   suitable model and the storage of the model inside a geospatial
   database. The work is based on the use of free and open source software;
   Blender and PostgreSQL with PostGIS have been used, respectively, to
   draw objects of the model and save their data with the help of some
   Python scripts; the server side part of the system has been realized
   using Tomcat with servlets and applets all written in Java. Buildings
   have been modelled according to GIANT3D model (Geographical
   Interoperable Advanced Numerical Topological 3-Dimensional Model)
   previously developed in the research ``PRIN 2004{''}, regarding
   ``Evolved structure of numerical cartography for GIS and WebGIS{''}.
   Python scripts, activated by Blender, allow saving data into a spatial
   database implemented through PostgreSQL and PostGIS that could be a
   remote database somewhere on the net; all geometrical and topological
   information, implemented in the 3D model, is so transferred in PostGIS.
   This information can be retrieved by Blender using other Python scripts,
   so Blender fully interacts with 3D data allocated in PostGIS. These data
   can be also accessed by many other clients, both directly using a
   database client and using other protocols (like HTTP on Internet). The
   second part of the research deals with the creation of a 3D Web Feature
   Service and an applet for internet browsers, in order to allow clients
   to visualize, explore and inquiry 3D model, retrieving data from
   database.},

Abstract = {Aspiring software engineers must be able to comprehend and evolve legacy
   code, which is challenging because the code may be poorly documented,
   ill structured, and lacking in human support. These challenges of
   understanding and evolving existing code can be illustrated in academic
   settings by leveraging the rich and varied volume of Open Source
   Software (OSS) code. To teach SE with OSS, however, it is necessary to
   select uniform projects of appropriate size and complexity. This paper
   reports on our search for suitable OSS projects to teach an introductory
   SE course with a focus on maintenance and evolution. The search turned
   out to be quite labor intensive and cumbersome, contrary to our
   expectations that it would be quick and simple. The chosen projects
   successfully demonstrated the maintenance challenges, highlighting the
   promise of using OSS. The burden of selecting projects, however, may
   impede widespread integration of OSS into SE and other computing
   courses.},

Abstract = {This chapter examines the use of Open Source Software (OSS) technologies
   that can be used to improve the learning of Science, Technology,
   Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Explored are the various methods
   that can be utilized to improve the percentage of STEM majors in the
   American educational system with resources such as: Open Source as
   Alternative (OSALT), virtualization, cloud computing, Linux
   distributions, open source programming, and open source hardware
   platforms. Increasing the amount of students that pursue STEM majors is
   important because the projected job growth in the STEM field compared to
   non-STEM jobs is 33\%. OSALT provides cost-effective alternatives to
   commercial products such as Microsoft Office Suite and Adobe Photoshop.
   Second, creating Virtual Machines (VMs) is another avenue to teach
   complex concepts in computer science, engineering, and Information
   Technology (IT). Third, cloud computing is an inexpensive way for
   clients to access information from multiple locations and devices.
   Fourth, universities can use the Operating System (OS) Linux and its
   various distributions as replacements for commercial operating systems
   like Windows in order to reduce IT costs. Lastly, open source
   programming languages like Python and their associated Integrated
   Development Environments (IDEs) provide comprehensive facilities for

Abstract = {Scientists across the globe conduct survey programs to monitor and
   characterize abundance, population structure, biodiversity and
   geographical distributions. To assess the state of marine fish and
   zooplankton, population surveys are often repeated annually using
   standardized sampling protocols and analysis techniques to establish
   trustworthy stock status. However, although transparency and
   repeatability are recognised as important principles of this process, it
   is often difficult to obtain comprehensive documentation of metadata and
   data processing steps. This is particularly challenging for workflows
   that include manual processing steps. StoX was principally built to
   process research-vessel survey data, and we have included several
   standard survey estimation models. The software was developed to be
   robust and versatile and aimed at the open source community, such that
   users could easily build their own models. StoX is fully integrated with
   R to utilize the large number of R-packages and enable any StoX function
   and stock estimation model to be controlled using R. There has been a
   large need for a freely available software for research-vessel survey
   estimation, and StoX is tested in surveys carried out in four continents
   and is the official tool for many important fish stock surveys. The
   basic workflow and transparency principles of StoX, together with a
   customizable GUI, makes StoX applicable for any geographically coded
   surveys. Future versions of StoX will include statistical models to
   estimate the catch composition in commercial fisheries. In fields such
   as conservation management, there is also a need to document the
   estimation methods, and additional estimation and analyses models,
   including biodiversity indices are currently implemented. In parallel,
   we envision a closer web service integration with existing international
   and national data centres.},

Title = {Financing A Free-for-All: Crowdfunding Open-Source Software},
Journal = {SMALL BUSINESS ECONOMICS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {63},
Number = {4},
Pages = {1449-1469},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {This paper examines whether open-source software (OSS) provides unique
   advantages in the entrepreneurial crowdfunding context. The economic
   model for new ventures with business plans centered on OSS is often
   counterintuitive to early-stage investors. On the one hand, the
   non-restrictive OSS approach reduces the barriers to widespread product
   adoption and collaboration; on the other, OSS is essentially a public
   good, creating a scenario where anyone can appropriate value from the
   product without compensating its creators. As such, an OSS approach can
   dissuade investors primarily concerned with appropriating value for
   themselves, making it difficult for early-stage OSS ventures to attract
   investors. However, the rapid rise of crowdfunding has created a
   communally minded investor base that might instead find OSS projects
   enticing. We theorize that the attributes of OSS projects align with the
   communal expectations of crowdfunding investors and thus create
   supportive environments for OSS-based ventures. We illustrate this
   alignment through the community-based resource mobilization framework
   and suggest that the OSS approach yields greater investor trust, leading
   to superior financing outcomes. Our mixed methods approach blends
   archival analyses of Kickstarter data with a constructive replication
   through a randomized experiment, providing consistent support that an
   OSS approach can be advantageous in the crowdfunding context.
   Can rewards-based crowdfunding open new doors to finance open-source
   software (OSS) projects? Our research suggests that crowdfunding backers
   are more likely to support OSS projects because they are perceived as
   more trustworthy. While the economic principles of OSS can be
   counterintuitive, OSS promotes widespread product adoption and
   collaboration. This allows anyone to benefit from OSS. Our research
   builds on the notion that crowdfunding, much like OSS, is a communal
   endeavor. We leverage data from the rewards-based crowdfunding platform
   Kickstarter.com and a controlled experiment, finding a connection
   between projects that espouse the OSS approach and crowdfunding success.
   The culmination of the two studies advances knowledge of the unique
   preferences of crowdfunding backers and suggests that the crowdfunding
   context is fertile ground to bring new insights into OSS-focused
   start-ups.},

Abstract = {PURPOSE: There are several interstitial (needle based) image-guided
   ablation planning systems available, but most of them are closed or
   unsupported. We propose an open source software platform for the
   planning of image-guided interstitial ablation procedures, providing
   generic functionality and support for specialized plug-ins.
   METHODS: The patient's image data is loaded or streamed into the system
   and the relevant structures are segmented. The user places fiducial
   points as ablation needle entries and tips, sets the ablation times, and
   the thermal dose is calculated by a dose engine. The thermal dose is
   then visualized on the 2D image slices and 3D rendering using a
   combination of isodose lines and surfaces. Quantitative feedback is
   provided by dose volume histograms. The treatment plan can be
   iteratively edited until satisfactory dose distribution is achieved. We
   performed a usability study with eight novice users in which they were
   asked to create a satisfactory treatment plan.
   RESULTS: Interventionists can use the proposed system to create and
   visualize thermal ablation plans. Researchers can use the platform to
   create a wide range of specialized applications by adding plug-ins for
   various types of ablation methods, thermal models, and dose calculation
   engines. Existing extensions of the platform can provide real-time
   imaging and tracked or robotic navigation to aid the user in optimal
   needle placement. From our usability study, the users found the visual
   information well represented and the platform intuitive to use. The
   users averaged 4.4 recalculation attempts before finding an optimal
   treatment, which was evaluated as 100\% necrosis of the tumor.
   CONCLUSION: The developed platform fulfills a demand for a universal and
   shared ablation planning system. While also being supported by the
   state-of-the-art development of specialized plug-ins, the open source
   system can adapt to the desired dose calculation or ablation procedure.},

Abstract = {Image registration is the most critical operation in remote sensing
   applications to enable location based referencing and analysis of earth
   features. This is the first step for any process involving
   identification, time series analysis or change detection using a large
   set of imagery over a region. Most of the reliable procedures involve
   time consuming and laborious manual methods of finding the corresponding
   matching features of the input image with respect to reference. Also the
   process, as it involves human interaction, does not converge with
   multiple operations at different times. Automated procedures rely on
   accurately determining the matching locations or points from both the
   images under comparison and the procedures are robust and consistent
   over time. Different algorithms are available to achieve this, based on
   pattern recognition, feature based detection, similarity techniques etc.
   In the present study and implementation, Correlation based methods have
   been used with a improvement over newly developed technique of
   identifying and pruning the false points of match. Free and Open Source
   Software (FOSS) have been used to develop the methodology to reach a
   wider audience, without any dependency on COTS (Commercially off the
   shelf) software. Standard deviation from foci of the ellipse of
   correlated points, is a statistical means of ensuring the best match of
   the points of interest based on both intensity values and location
   correspondence. The methodology is developed and standardised by
   enhancements to meet the registration requirements of remote sensing
   imagery. Results have shown a performance improvement, nearly matching
   the visual techniques and have been implemented in remote sensing
   operational projects. The main advantage of the proposed methodology is
   its viability in production mode environment. This paper also shows that
   the visualization capabilities of MapWinGIS, GDAL's image handling
   abilities and OSSIM's correlation facility can be efficiently integrated
   to effectively use in remote sensing based production environment.},

Abstract = {Open source software has become an alternative to commercial software
   for industrial users. Industrial users adopting to OSS and the
   underlying concepts need to consider changing their software development
   practices and organization in order to benefit from the OSS model. These
   changes may involve both technical and non-technical aspects. Openness
   and collaboration with a community are two non-technical concepts that
   may require such changes, while evaluating OSS products or evaluating
   different strategies for integrating OSS products are two technical
   aspects that may require adoption.
   The objective of this paper is to create an awareness for the adoption
   of OSS in an industrial context. OSS can be used in different ways. Four
   categories of using OSS are presented by discussing motivation,
   implication and experience for each category. The main conclusion from
   this work is that organizations should have a realistic expectation of
   both the designated benefits and extension of organizational changes
   necessary to adopt to OSS. This conclusion is based on observations from
   industrial organizations using OSS, including OSS in the aeronautics
   industry, as well as from observations reported in the literature on
   open source.},

Abstract = {This article discusses how and why the locus of the tensions brought
   about by new information and communications technology ({''}ICT{''}) in
   the global inter-networked society have gone beyond territory,

   discussion initially from government to governance, and then ultimately
   to participation. Free and open source software ({''}FOSS{''}) developer
   communities are used both as case studies and as a critique of existing
   regulatory approaches to ICT. By showing the profound and sometimes
   disruptive impact hybrid active subjects like FOSS communities have had
   on matters relating to regulation, governance and culture, this article
   explains why there is a need to expand what democracy means and entails
   in the digital networked environment.},

Title = {A large-scale study of architectural evolution in open-source software

Volume = {22},

Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {From its very inception, the study of software architecture has
   recognized architectural decay as a regularly occurring phenomenon in
   long-lived systems. Architectural decay is caused by repeated, sometimes
   careless changes to a system during its lifespan. Despite decay's
   prevalence, there is a relative dearth of empirical data regarding the
   nature of architectural changes that may lead to decay, and of
   developers' understanding of those changes. In this paper, we take a
   step toward addressing that scarcity by introducing an architecture
   recovery framework, ARCADE, for conducting large-scale replicable
   empirical studies of architectural change across different versions of a
   software system. ARCADE includes two novel architectural change metrics,
   which are the key to enabling large-scale empirical studies of
   architectural change. We utilize ARCADE to conduct an empirical study of
   changes found in software architectures spanning several hundred
   versions of 23 open-source systems. Our study reveals several new
   findings regarding the frequency of architectural changes in software
   systems, the common points of departure in a system's architecture
   during the system's maintenance and evolution, the difference between
   system-level and component-level architectural change, and the
   suitability of a system's implementation-level structure as a proxy for
   its architecture.},

Abstract = {Autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models are the most
   commonly used prediction models in the previous studies on software
   evolution prediction. This study explores a prediction method based on
   fuzzy time series for predicting the future commit activity in open
   source software (OSS) projects. The idea to choose fuzzy time series
   based prediction method is due to the stochastic nature of the OSS
   development process. Commit activity of OSS project indicates the
   activeness of its development community. An active development community
   is a strong contributor to the success of OSS project. Therefore commit
   activity prediction is an important indicator to the project managers,
   developers, and users regarding the evolutionary prospects of the
   project in future. The fuzzy time series-based prediction method is of
   order three and uses time variant difference parameter on the current
   state to forecast the next state data. The performance and suitability
   of computational method are examined in comparison with that of ARIMA
   model on a data set of seven OSS systems. It is found that the predicted
   results of the computational method outperform various ARIMA models.
   Towards the end, a commit prediction model is used for each project to
   analyse the trends in their commit activity.},

   Open source software (OSS) communities are a globally accelerating

   the software and further the code sharing to the general and corporate
   users of the software. The combination of private provision and public
   knowledge and software, and the seeming paradox of economic versus
   social motivations have stimulated a wide debate between researchers and

   viewpoint of ``intrinsic motivation,{''} knowledge creation, and
   collective Internet governance. We believe that the growth of global OSS
   has fundamental implications for business ethics and the governance of
   the global Internet in the twenty-first century.},

Abstract = {In open source software (OSS) communities, existing leadership
   indicators are dominantly measured by code contribution or community
   influence. Recent studies on emergent leadership shed light on
   additional dimensions such as intellectual stimulation in collaborative
   communications. This paper aims to mine communication styles and
   identify emergent leadership behaviors in OSS communities, using issue
   comments data. We start with the construction of 6 categories of
   leadership behaviors based on existing leadership studies. Then, we
   manually label leadership behaviors in 10,000 issue comments from 10 OSS
   projects, and extract 304 heuristic linguistic patterns which represent
   different types of emergent leadership behaviors in flexible and concise
   manners. Next, an automated algorithm is developed to merge and
   consolidate different pattern sets extracted from multiple projects into
   a final pattern ranking list, which can be applied for the automatic
   leadership identification. The evaluation results show that iLead can
   achieve a median precision of 0.82 and recall of 0.78, outperforming ten
   machine/deep learning baselines. We argue that emergent leadership
   behaviors in issue discussion should be taken into consideration to
   broaden existing OSS leadership viewpoints.},

Abstract = {The first free/libre/open source software (FLOSS) development
   communities were composed almost exclusively of volunteers. They were
   individuals who, despite their affiliation, contributed to the project
   on their own. They decided which project to join, and their
   contributions were personal in nature, even when in some cases they were
   employees of companies with some interests in the project. GNU, the
   first of such communities, and some others that emerged during the late
   1980s and 1990s, followed this pattern. During the 1990s corporate
   interests started to have a role in some FLOSS communities. Companies
   hired people from those communities to gain influence, or tasked their
   employees to contribute to them, again with the idea of influencing
   their decisions. During the 2000s, corporate communities, in which
   companies are first-class citizens, have emerged, changing the rules and
   redefining the role of volunteers and non-affiliated individuals.
   However, the role of developers, with independence of the company for
   which they work, is still important even in these communities. This
   paper addresses this transition from volunteer-based to company-based
   development communities, and explores the structure and behavior of the
   latter.},

Abstract = {For decades, biologists have relied on software to visualize and
   interpret imaging data. As techniques for acquiring images increase in
   complexity, resulting in larger multidimensional datasets, imaging
   software must adapt. ImageJ is an open-source image analysis software
   platform that has aided researchers with a variety of image analysis
   applications, driven mainly by engaged and collaborative user and
   developer communities. The close collaboration between programmers and
   users has resulted in adaptations to accommodate new challenges in image
   analysis that address the needs of ImageJ's diverse user base. ImageJ
   consists of many components, some relevant primarily for developers and
   a vast collection of user-centric plugins. It is available in many
   forms, including the widely used Fiji distribution. We refer to this
   entire ImageJ codebase and community as the ImageJ ecosystem. Here we
   review the core features of this ecosystem and highlight how ImageJ has
   responded to imaging technology advancements with new plugins and tools
   in recent years. These plugins and tools have been developed to address
   user needs in several areas such as visualization, segmentation, and
   tracking of biological entities in large, complex datasets. Moreover,
   new capabilities for deep learning are being added to ImageJ, reflecting
   a shift in the bioimage analysis community towards exploiting artificial
   intelligence. These new tools have been facilitated by profound
   architectural changes to the ImageJ core brought about by the ImageJ2
   project. Therefore, we also discuss the contributions of ImageJ2 to
   enhancing multidimensional image processing and interoperability in the
   ImageJ ecosystem.},

Abstract = {Among the most noteworthy topics; surrounding the recent widespread
   adoption of open-source software (OSS) are the convergence by
   governments worldwide to open standards and the ways in which open
   source embraces this convergence. There are continuing debates over the
   future of software and, in particular, the competition between OSS and
   proprietary software. Many studies by governments and by information
   technology analysts suggest that OSS and open standards are intimately
   connected and that the inherent value of open-source adoption may be
   attributable in large part to the embodiment of open standards in OSS.
   The government environment is changing rapidly in areas as diverse as
   homeland security and social services. Given the equally rapid changes
   in the information technology marketplace, the successful adoption of
   these new technologies by governments will depend on how well the
   strengths of proprietary software and OSS are understood and
   applied-especially with respect to the use of open standards to speed
   deployments of integrated capabilities that respond to emerging
   challenges. This paper evaluates the relative strengths of proprietary
   software and OSS as development techniques that embrace the open
   standards valued by governments.},

Abstract = {Purpose To better understand the success of an open source software
   (OSS) project, this study aims to examine the role of social dependency
   networks (i.e. social and technical dependencies) in online communities.
   Design/methodology/approach This study focuses on dependencies using
   three network metrics - degree centrality, betweenness centrality and
   closeness centrality - in developer and module networks. A longitudinal
   analysis from the projects hosted at Sourceforge.net is conducted to
   examine the effects of social and technical networks on the success of
   OSS projects. To address our research questions, we have constructed
   research models to investigate the social network effects in developer
   networks, the technical network effects in module networks, and the
   social-technical network effects in both types of networks. Findings The
   results reveal nonlinear relationships between degree centrality in both
   social and technical networks and OSS success, highlighting the
   importance of a moderate level of degree centrality in team structure
   and software architecture. Meanwhile, a moderate level of betweenness
   centrality and a lower level of closeness centrality between developers
   lead to a higher chance of OSS project success. Originality/value This
   study is the first attempt to consider the network metrics in both
   module networks of the technical sub-system and developer networks of
   the social sub-system to better understand their influences on project
   success.},

   off-the-shelf components, to assess risk in OSS component adoption, we
   can rely on the public availability of measurable information about the

   present a risk evaluation technique that uses conceptual modelling to
   assess OSS component adoption risks. We root it in the existing

   non-infringement warranties or intellectual property (IP) indemnity
   issues. In the context of a field investigation of these risks, several
   potential scenarios of OSS risk to organizations were identified, with
   two of them appearing as primary. The first primary scenario is the
   potential loss of control over revenue generating proprietary software
   when OSS source code and proprietary software source code are mixed
   together in one primary software works. The second primary risk scenario
   is the potential loss of control over software products or services
   offered within an organization due to legal disputes about intellectual
   property (IP). Other secondary risk scenarios are discussed as well.
   Some emerging trends in this area are also reviewed.},

Abstract = {Commonly used open source configuration management systems, such as
   Puppet, Chef and CFEngine, allow for system configurations to be
   expressed as scripts. A number of quality issues that may arise when
   executing these scripts are identified. An automated quality assurance
   service is proposed that identifies the presence of these issues by
   automatically executing scripts across a range of environments. Test
   results are automatically published to a format capable of being
   consumed by script catalogues and social coding sites. This would serve
   as an independent signal of script trustworthiness and quality to script
   consumers and would allow developers to be made quickly aware of quality
   issues. As a result, potential consumers of scripts can be assured that
   a script is likely to work when applied to their particular environment.
   Script developers can be notified of compatibility issues and take steps
   to address them.},

Abstract = {Extracting norms from computer-mediated human interactions is gaining
   popularity since huge volume of data is available from which norms can
   be extracted. Open source communities offer exciting new application
   opportunities for extracting norms since such communities involve
   developers from different geographical regions, background and cultures.
   Investigating the types of norms that exist in open source projects and
   their efficacy (i.e. the usage of norms) in enabling smoother
   functioning however has not received much attention from the normative
   multi-agent systems (NorMAS) community. This paper makes two
   contributions in this regard. First, it presents norm compliance results
   from a case study involving three open source Java projects. Second, it
   presents an architecture for mining norms from open source projects. It
   also discusses the opportunities presented by the domain of software
   repositories for the study of norms. In particular, it points towards
   how norms can be mined by leveraging and extending prior work in the
   areas of Normative Multi-Agent Systems (NorMAS) and mining software
   repositories.},

   provided a robust alternative for businesses and governments around the
   world to consider them for adoption. The OSS adoption could lead to
   lower production and transaction costs and thus lead to higher
   profitability. However, the adoption process is complex and involves
   many internal as well as external factors. Hence, information about the
   rate of diffusion could be useful to decision makers and support them in
   justifying their decisions. We study a variety of technology diffusion
   models and their application to OSS. Epidemic, Probit, and Bass models
   are compared on their interpretations of technology diffusion. We
   develop a game theoretic framework where knowledge of OSS diffusion rate
   could lead to information asymmetry and work in favor of an adopting
   firm in terms of gaining competitive advantage over its competitors.},

Title = {Studying re-opened bugs in open source software},
Journal = {EMPIRICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {18},
Number = {5},
Pages = {1005-1042},
Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {Bug fixing accounts for a large amount of the software maintenance
   resources. Generally, bugs are reported, fixed, verified and closed.
   However, in some cases bugs have to be re-opened. Re-opened bugs
   increase maintenance costs, degrade the overall user-perceived quality
   of the software and lead to unnecessary rework by busy practitioners. In
   this paper, we study and predict re-opened bugs through a case study on
   three large open source projects-namely Eclipse, Apache and OpenOffice.
   We structure our study along four dimensions: (1) the work habits
   dimension (e.g., the weekday on which the bug was initially closed), (2)
   the bug report dimension (e.g., the component in which the bug was
   found) (3) the bug fix dimension (e.g., the amount of time it took to
   perform the initial fix) and (4) the team dimension (e.g., the
   experience of the bug fixer). We build decision trees using the
   aforementioned factors that aim to predict re-opened bugs. We perform
   top node analysis to determine which factors are the most important
   indicators of whether or not a bug will be re-opened. Our study shows
   that the comment text and last status of the bug when it is initially
   closed are the most important factors related to whether or not a bug
   will be re-opened. Using a combination of these dimensions, we can build
   explainable prediction models that can achieve a precision between
   52.1-78.6 \% and a recall in the range of 70.5-94.1 \% when predicting
   whether a bug will be re-opened. We find that the factors that best
   indicate which bugs might be re-opened vary based on the project. The
   comment text is the most important factor for the Eclipse and OpenOffice
   projects, while the last status is the most important one for Apache.
   These factors should be closely examined in order to reduce maintenance
   cost due to re-opened bugs.},

Abstract = {Development, distribution and use of open source software comprise a
   market of data (source code, bug reports, documentation, number of
   downloads, etc.) from projects, developers and users. This large amount
   of data hampers people to make sense of implicit links between software
   projects, e.g., dependencies, patterns, licenses. This context raises
   the question of what techniques and mechanisms can be used to help users
   and developers to link related pieces of information across software
   projects. In this paper, we propose a framework for a marketplace
   enhanced using linked open data (LOD) technology for linking software
   artifacts within projects as well as across software projects. The
   marketplace provides the infrastructure for collecting and aggregating
   software engineering data as well as developing services for mining,
   statistics, analytics and visualization of software data. Based on
   cross-linking software artifacts and projects, the marketplace enables
   developers and users to understand the individual value of components
   and their relationship to bigger software systems. Improved
   understanding creates new business opportunities for software companies:
   users will be able to analyze and compare projects, developers can
   increase the visibility of their products, and hosts may offer plugins
   and services over the data to paying customers.},

Abstract = {Background: Accurate representation of developer expertise has always
   been an important research problem. While a number of studies proposed
   novel methods of representing expertise within individual projects,
   these methods are difficult to apply at an ecosystem level. However,
   with the focus of software development shifting from monolithic to
   modular, a method of representing developers' expertise in the context
   of the entire OSS development becomes necessary when, for example, a
   project tries to find new maintainers and look for developers with
   relevant skills. Aim: We aim to address this knowledge gap by proposing
   and constructing the Skill Space where each API, developer, and project
   is represented and postulate how the topology of this space should
   reflect what developers know (and projects need). Method: we use the
   World of Code infrastructure to extract the complete set of APIs in the
   files changed by open source developers and, based on that data, employ
   Doc2Vec embeddings for vector representations of APIs, developers, and
   projects. We then evaluate if these embeddings reflect the postulated
   topology of the Skill Space by predicting what new APIs/projects
   developers use/join, and whether or not their pull requests get
   accepted. We also check how the developers' representations in the Skill
   Space align with their self-reported API expertise. Result: Our results
   suggest that the proposed embeddings in the Skill Space appear to
   satisfy the postulated topology and we hope that such representations
   may aid in the construction of signals that increase trust (and
   efficiency) of open source ecosystems at large and may aid
   investigations of other phenomena related to developer proficiency and
   learning.},

   SweET (Software Defect Estimation Tool), which has not been publicly
   available to the software engineering community for several years.
   SWEEP's four modes have been simplified and combined into three modes
   namely, (i) time-based, (ii) phase-based, and (iii) defect insertion in
   SweET. Moreover, SweET uses the Weibull model, which is more flexible
   than the Rayleigh model included in SWEEP. Furthermore, the model
   fitting performed with least squares estimation in SWEEP has been
   replaced with an expectation conditional maximization (ECM) algorithm,
   which is both stable and efficient.},

Abstract = {The usage of external open source software components can improve
   proprietary software in multiple ways, such as higher quality, lower
   cost, and faster time-to-market. But in order to fully benefit from its
   usage there are some important aspects to take into account, as well as
   significant risks to specifically manage to avoid potential legal
   consequences. This paper lays out the foundations for a process
   framework that successfully manages those risks and addresses the
   intrinsic aspects of open source software usage. Furthermore, it
   proposes a well-proven basis and best practices for corporate
   governance, policy, strategy, and process implementation.},

Abstract = {The Open Source Software (OSS) concept abounds with paradoxical issues
   which is one of the primary reasons why it is so interesting: For
   example, the basic premise that software source code-the `crown jewels'
   for many proprietary software companies-should be provided freely to
   anyone who wishes to see it or modify it. Also, the tension between
   collectivism and individualism in the overall movement, the balance
   between modesty and supreme ego on the part of `code god' project
   leaders, the balance between anarchy and control at the project level,
   the manner in which organisations make money from free software. These
   are all extremely interesting issues which will be the focus of this

Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the literature
   about the commercial involvement in open source software, levels of this
   involvement and consequences of attempting to mix various logics of
   action.
   Design/methodology/approach - This paper uses the case study approach
   based on mixed methods: literature reviews and news searches, electronic
   surveys, qualitative interviews and observations. It combines
   discussions from several research projects as well as previous
   publications to present the scope of commercial choices within open
   source software and their consequences.
   Findings - The findings show that higher levels of involvement in open
   source software communities poses important questions about the balance
   between economic, technological, and social logics as well as the
   benefits of being autonomous, having access to collaborative networks
   and minimizing risks related to free-riding. There are six levels of
   commercial involvement in open source communities, and each of them is
   characterized by a different dilemma.
   Originality/value - The paper sheds light on the various level of
   involvement of business in open source movement and emphasize that the
   popularized ``open innovation{''} concept is only the first step in real
   involvement and paradigm shift.},

Abstract = {Defect reporting and correction is one of the most crucial part in any
   phase of software development. This is a very costly activity. A lot of
   time, effort and resources can be saved if the defects can be predicted
   beforehand, using a suitable training data set. For this, the generation
   of defect reports which reports the classes that are defective and
   computes the required software metrics is required. This process should
   be fully automated. Various data analysis research techniques and
   algorithms can be applied on this produced data set and this information
   can be very helpful for the developers and the organization as a whole
   for the prediction of bugs for future purposes and for analysis of the
   quality of the software being produced. The various issues addressed in
   this paper are (1) selection of suitable projects as input for the tool,
   (2) a mechanism to trace the whole project code history and identifying
   the classes present, (3) the criteria for classifying a class as
   defective, (4) method to generate most accurate software metrics for the
   classes, (5) combining all the data into a final representable format.
   The tool is developed using Java, using the top open source repositories
   hosted on Github to test its working, incorporating SourceMeter tool to
   produce the software metrics and wrapping all this in a simple
   interface.},

Abstract = {Purpose - Open source software (OSS) products have rapidly acquired a
   notable importance in the last years among consumers and firms all over
   the world. They are mostly developed and distributed through online
   social networks thanks to the voluntary and collaborative actions of
   their members. However, their innovation and development has to face up
   the existence of free-riders which can benefit from the knowledge
   developed in the online social network. This paper aims to understand
   the factors that moderate the opportunistic behaviour in OSS development
   and distribution, which will help to correctly manage the OSS
   innovations.
   Design/methodology/approach - The influence of reputation on members'
   satisfaction and participation intentions in OSS online social networks
   are measured. Additionally, the impact of being an active and satisfied
   member on his/her commitment and intention to use the OSS products are
   studied. After the validation of measurement scales the hypotheses are
   contrasted with structural modelling.
   Findings - This research show that perceived reputation acts as a
   deterrent factor of free-riders. More specifically, reputation exerts a
   positive and significant effect on member's satisfaction with previous
   interactions and an indirect effect on participation intentions in the
   social network through satisfaction. Besides, these two outcomes of
   reputation boost the members' affective commitment to the OSS and, as a
   consequence, the intention to use OSS products is also increased.
   Practical implications - Reputation and satisfaction are two crucial
   aspects in explaining the success of an online social network since they
   serve to guarantee the interaction among its members. In addition,
   participation continuance intentions in an online network may help to
   increase the levels of affective commitment and loyalty to the mutual
   interest of the network (the OSS in this case). This result may be
   especially relevant for commercial networks, which are based on the
   admiration to a brand, firm or product.
   Originality/value - The analysis of online social networks as a
   development and distribution channel and the role of reputation in
   promoting members' participation (that is, avoiding opportunistic
   behaviour) represent a new contribution to the analysis of online social
   networks. This research field has acquired a notable popularity in
   recent years.},

Abstract = {Traditionally, the protection of intellectual property is regarded as a
   precondition for value capture. The rise of open source (OS) software
   and OS tangible products, so-called open design, has challenged this
   understanding. Openness is often regarded as a dichotomous variable
   (open-source vs. closed-source) and it is assumed that online developer
   communities demand full opening of the product's source. In this paper
   we will explore openness as a gradual and multi-dimensional concept. We
   carried out an Internet survey (N = 270) among participants of 20 open
   design communities in the domain of IT hardware and consumer
   electronics. We find that open design projects pursue complex strategies
   short of complete openness and that communities value openness of
   software more highly than openness of hardware. Our findings suggest
   that open design companies can successfully implement strategies of
   partial openness to safeguard value capture without alienating their
   developer community.},

Abstract = {Community-based natural resource management (CBNRM) is an environmental
   governance approach that deals with complex and interwoven ecological
   problems through a participatory environmental management framework.
   Practitioner, donor, and academic interest in this strategy is on the
   rise, and successful CBNRM organizations are experiencing internal and
   external pressures to help ``transfer{''} their knowledge and
   experiences to other contexts and scales. If organized through the
   traditional top-down diffusion of innovation approach, many barriers to
   CBNRM transfer exist, beginning with organizational costs that may
   outweigh potential benefits. However, reframed as a more ``open{''} and
   emergent process, the burdens of transfer may be reduced and benefits
   increased. We draw on an analogy from the Open Source Software (OSS)
   movement to suggest an organizational rationale for exchange and
   principles such as ``porting,{''} the ``kernel,{''} ``copyleft,{''} and
   ``forking{''} that can guide CBNRM and for community-based organizations
   challenged to share their approach to conservation.},

   studies of OSS-wide copy-based reuse by providing copying activity data
   that captures whole-file reuse in nearly all OSS. To accomplish that, we
   develop approaches to detect copy-based reuse by developing an efficient
   algorithm that exploits World of Code infrastructure: a curated and
   cross referenced collection of nearly all open source repositories. We

Abstract = {The modern technologies not only provide an opportunity to collect water
   depth data much more efficiently than in the past, but also there is a
   wide range of opportunities to process these data to develop bathymetric
   maps and perform various calculations in the computer environment. This
   research aims to construct a high-resolution bathymetric map by using
   open-source software. Lake Zebrus was selected as the study site, where
   fieldwork was performed to obtain the depth data and subsequently
   process to find optimal methodology for creating a bathymetric map. The
   methodology used in this research is modifiable for different purposes
   and is based on obtaining the best results from using open-source
   resources and knowledge of cartography. Lake Zebrus is an example how to
   perform accurate and state of the art bathymetric survey in a short time
   period. The area of Lake Zebrus is 417.57 ha. The lake has a small
   crooked coastline. Lake Zebrus has a maximum depth of 4.45 m and an
   average depth of 1.48 m. Results from the bathymetric survey can be used
   for further research based on depth data. The research tasks are
   accomplished as the methodology selected is repeatable in the other
   lakes. The research results prove that this methodology can be used for
   a bathymetric survey and it is possible to obtain high-definition
   results using open-source resources.},

Abstract = {Nowadays Open-Source Software is developed mostly by decentralized teams
   of developers cooperating on-line. GitHub portal is an online social
   network that supports development of software by virtual teams of
   programmers. Since there is no central mechanism that governs the
   process of team formation, it is interesting to investigate if there are
   any significant correlations between project quality and the
   characteristics of the team members. However, for such analysis to be
   possible, we need good metrics of a project quality. This paper develops
   two such metrics, first one reflecting project's popularity, and the
   second one - the quality of support offered by team members to users.
   The first metric is based on the number of `stars' a project is given by
   other GitHub members, the second is obtained using survival analysis
   techniques applied to issues reported on the project by its users. After
   developing the metrics we have gathered characteristics of several
   GitHub projects and analyzed their influence on the project quality
   using statistical regression techniques.},

Abstract = {Software development is a knowledge intensive process and the
   information generated in open source software development projects is
   typically housed in a central Internet repository. Open source
   repositories typically contains vast amounts of information, much of it
   unstructured, meaning that even if a question has previously been
   discussed and dealt with it is not a trivial task to locate it. This can
   lead to rework and confusion amongst developers and possibly deter new
   developers from getting involved in the project in the first place. This
   paper will present the case for an open source software development
   ontology. Such an ontology would enable better categorization of
   information and the development of sophisticated knowledge portals in
   order to better organize community knowledge and increase efficiency in
   the open source development process.},

Title = {METHODS: A meta-path-based method for heterogeneous community detection
   in the open source software ecosystem},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {162},
Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {Detecting communities in the open source software (OSS) ecosystem can
   help understand the collaborations in the open source software ecosystem
   and promote an understanding of the dynamics of the ecosystem. However,
   most existing community detection methods are designed for homogeneous
   networks, whereas the OSS ecosystem is a heterogeneous network.
   Therefore, we propose a meta-path-based method for heterogeneous
   community detection in the OSS ecosystem (METHODS). METHODS comprises
   four steps. Firstly, a heterogeneous information network is constructed
   based on meta-paths. Secondly, the Canopy algorithm is used to obtain
   the number of initial communities. Thirdly, the skip-gram model is used
   to identify seed nodes for community detection. Finally, METHODS detects
   heterogeneous communities around the seed nodes. By defining a series of
   evaluation metrics and verifying these on GitHub datasets, METHODS
   achieves the best performance of all the other methods. Moreover, the
   case studies on GitHub also shows METHODS can discover latent
   communities whose members are potentially relevant.},

Month = {OCT 29},
Abstract = {Objectives Regular hygiene trainings are an important way to refresh and
   improve knowledge about hygiene measures and the prevention of
   healthcare-associated infections. We aimed to develop an e-learning
   course to allow healthcare workers (HCWs) to learn these contents
   through a self-paced online format.Methods We developed an interactive
   hygiene training for HCWs of a tertiary care hospital using different
   content types of the HTML-5 package (H5P) plugin embedded into a
   Moodle-based learning management system. We evaluated the course using a
   short online questionnaire.Results We present various suitable topics
   for online hygiene trainings as well as their implementation in an
   e-learning course. Examples include content on hand hygiene indications
   and techniques, information on multidrug-resistant organisms and other
   current topics in infection control. HCWs reported high overall
   satisfaction, perceived increase in knowledge, practical relevance as
   well as good usability and comprehensibility.Discussion Currently
   available commercial and non-commercial hygiene trainings present a
   number of specific advantages but also drawbacks. The presented approach
   combines the advantages of both approaches. The majority of the
   presented content can be readily adapted to suit various hospitals and
   care facilities or serve as inspiration for creating similar courses
   while remaining cost-effective.Conclusion H5P course presentations are a
   low-threshold, cost-effective way to implement digital hygiene trainings
   in a wide variety of clinical settings.},

Abstract = {This paper explores the usage and awareness of free and open-source
   software (FOSS) among university students attending several study
   programs at the Faculty of Organization and Informatics (FOI) of the
   University of Zagreb and the Faculty of Teacher Education (FTE) of the
   University of Zagreb. Using the data collected via an online
   questionnaire on the sample of 777 students and the descriptive and
   inferential statistics, an analysis was carried out to determine whether
   the respondents are familiar with the key features of FOSS, whether they
   use some FOSS, whether they are aware of the advantages of FOSS, which
   features of FOSS are the most important to them, and how they evaluate
   the quality of FOSS. The data were analysed using the statistics FOSS
   GNU PSPP and R. The research results show that 92.66 \% of the
   respondents use some kind of FOSS, 28.99 \% are aware that they are
   using FOSS with all its features, and the most important FOSS feature
   for the respondents is that it is often cost-free. There are significant
   differences in the respondents' familiarity with FOSS and the number of
   FOSS operating systems users in terms of their faculty and gender. On a
   scale from 1 (insufficient) to 5 (excellent), the respondents' rating of
   FOSS reliability was 3.74, completeness 3.68, and overall quality 3.74.
   The research results indicate the need for additional education of
   students about FOSS, and its advantages and disadvantages.},

Abstract = {Scientists often need to build dedicated computer-controlled
   experimental systems. For this purpose, it is becoming common to employ
   open-source microcontroller platforms, such as the Arduino. These boards
   and associated integrated software development environments provide
   affordable yet powerful solutions for the implementation of hardware
   control of transducers and acquisition of signals from detectors and
   sensors. It is, however, a challenge to write programs that allow
   interactive use of such arrangements from a personal computer. This task
   is particularly complex if some of the included hardware components are
   connected directly to the computer and not via the microcontroller. A
   graphical user interface framework, lnstrumentino, was therefore
   developed to allow the creation of control programs for complex systems
   with minimal programming effort. By writing a single code file, a
   powerful custom user interface is generated, which enables the automatic
   running of elaborate operation sequences and observation of acquired
   experimental data in real time. The framework, which is written in
   Python, allows extension by users, and is made available as an open
   source project.},

Abstract = {Traditionally the protection of intellectual property is regarded as a
   precondition for value capture. The rise of open source (OS) software
   and OS tangible products, so-called open design, has challenged this
   understanding. Openness is often regarded as a dichotomous variable
   (open-source vs. closed-source) and it is assumed that online developer
   communities demand full opening of the product's source. In this paper
   we will explore openness as a gradual and multi-dimensional concept. We
   carried out an Internet survey (N = 270) among participants of 20 open
   design communities in the domain of IT hardware and consumer
   electronics. We find that open design projects pursue complex strategies
   short of complete openness and that communities value openness of
   software more highly than openness of hardware. Our findings suggest
   that open design companies can successfully implement strategies of
   partial openness to safeguard value capture without alienating their
   developer community.},

Abstract = {Background: Software smells reflect the sub-optimal patterns in the
   software. In a similar way, community smells consider the sub-optimal
   patterns in the organizational and social structures of software teams.
   Related work performed empirical studies to identify the relationship
   between community smells and software smells at the architecture and
   code levels. However, how community smells relate with design smells is
   still unknown.
   Aims: In this paper, we empirically investigate the relationship between
   community smells and design smells during the evolution of software
   projects.
   Method: We apply three statistical methods: correlation, trend, and
   information gain analysis to empirically examine the relationship
   between community and design smells in 100 releases of 10 large-scale
   Apache open-source software projects.
   Results: Our results reveal that the relationship between community and
   design smells varies across the analyzed projects. We find significant
   correlations and trend similarities for one type of community smell
   (when developers work in isolation without peer communication-Missing
   Links) with design smells in most of the analyzed projects. Furthermore,
   the results of our statistical model disclose that community smells are
   more relevant for design smells compared to other community-related
   factors.
   Conclusion: Our results find that the relationship of community smells
   (in particular, the Missing Links smell) exists with design smells.
   Based on our findings, we discuss specific community smell refactoring
   techniques that should be done together when refactoring design smells
   so that the problems associated with the social and technical (design)
   aspects of the projects can be managed concurrently.},

Journal = {ACM TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING AND METHODOLOGY},

Abstract = {Open source software projects often rely on package management systems
   that help projects discover, incorporate, and maintain dependencies on
   other packages, maintained by other people. Such systems save a great
   deal of effort over ad hoc ways of advertising, packaging, and
   transmitting useful libraries, but coordination among project teams is
   still needed when one package makes a breaking change affecting other
   packages. Ecosystems differ in their approaches to breaking changes, and
   there is no general theory to explain the relationships between
   features, behavioral norms, ecosystem outcomes, and motivating values.
   We address this through two empirical studies. In an interview case
   study, we contrast Eclipse, NPM, and CRAN, demonstrating that these
   different norms for coordination of breaking changes shift the costs of
   using and maintaining the software among stakeholders, appropriate to
   each ecosystem's mission. In a second study, we combine a survey,
   repository mining, and document analysis to broaden and systematize
   these observations across 18 ecosystems. We find that all ecosystems
   share values such as stability and compatibility, but differ in other
   values. Ecosystems' practices often support their espoused values, but
   in surprisingly diverse ways. The data provides counterevidence against
   easy generalizations about why ecosystem communities do what they do.},

Abstract = {We reconstruct the dual network structure generated by the association
   between 72 contributors and 737 software bugs engaged during a full
   development cycle of the free/open source software project Epiphany.
   Estimates of structural parameters of Exponential Random Graph Models
   for two-mode networks reveal the structural logics shaping activities of
   collaborative problem solving. After controlling for
   contributor-specific and software bug-specific characteristics, we find
   that contributors ({''}problem solvers{''}) tend to distribute their
   activity over multiple software bugs. At the same time, however, we find
   that software bugs ({''}problems{''}) tend not to share multiple
   contributors. This dual tendency toward de-specialization and
   exclusivity is sustained by specific local network dependencies revealed
   by our analysis which also suggests possible organizational mechanisms
   that may be underlying the puzzling macro-structural regularities
   frequently observed, but rarely explained, in the production of open
   source software. By combining these mechanisms with the influence of
   contributors characterized by different levels of involvement in the
   project, we provide micro-level evidence of structural interdependence
   between ``core{''} and ``peripheral{''} members identified exclusively
   on the basis of their individual level of contribution to the project.

   online communication messages randomly sampled from newsgroups and bug
   trackers, manually annotated as requests or non-requests. We identify
   several linguistically shallow, content-based heuristics that correlate
   with the classification and investigate the extent to which they can
   serve as independent classification criteria. Then, we train
   machine-learning classifiers on these heuristics. We experiment with a
   wide range of settings, such as different learners, excluding some
   heuristics and adding unigram features of various parts-of-speech and
   frequency. We conclude that some heuristics can perform well, while
   their accuracy can be improved further using machine learning, at the

Abstract = {Few open source software (OSS) projects have been great success stories.
   One reason for this is project stagnation after developers quit their
   projects. This fact has motivated researchers to examine the factors
   that influence developers' intention to continue their participation.
   One factor is trust among developers. The effects of trust on
   developers' intention to remain with their projects have been studied.
   However, little is known about its conceptual counterpart, distrust.
   This dearth of knowledge motivates our research. First, we studied what
   OSS project features affect trust and distrust among developers. Second,
   we examined how trust and distrust influence developers' intention to
   continue participating. We tested our hypotheses with 451 data points
   from an online survey. Our findings indicate that cooperative norms and
   effective communication engender trust, whereas an accreditation
   mechanism eliminates distrust. Additionally, trust positively influences
   their intention to continue participating, whereas distrust negatively
   influences it.},

   framework for assessment and ranking},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SOFTWARE-EVOLUTION AND PROCESS},
Year = {2024},

Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) follows a software development paradigm
   whereby self-motivated volunteers scattered all around the globe
   contribute to the development in the form of code, documentation,
   feedback, feature recommendations, bug reporting, and bug resolution.
   These volunteers, commonly referred to as OSS project community, serve
   as the foundation of the OSS project, fostering its creation and
   sustenance and providing long-term support. The quality and
   sustainability of the OSS project is reliant upon the development and
   structure of the self-governing community. When a business organization
   plans to acquire an OSS solution, it not only takes into consideration
   the factors such as reliability, security, and scalability but also
   attaches significant importance to the likelihood of the OSS project
   being maintained and supported in the future so that it can rely on it
   as a stable and secure technology solution. Modern cloud-based software
   hosting platforms, such as GitHub, offer a range of options for
   automatically and freely accessing the complete development history of
   millions of OSS projects. This easy availability of detailed development
   history has enabled researchers to analyze and draw quantitative and
   scientific inferences about the quality of an OSS project which
   generally involves assessing three aspects, namely, software product,
   development process, and project community. With focus on project
   community part, a Framework for Assessment and Ranking of OSS Community
   is being presented in the current research work, following a detailed
   examination of the largest source code hosting and project collaboration
   platform, GitHub. Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to
   Ideal Solution from Multi-Criteria Decision-Making toolkit has been
   utilized for assessing the quality of the project community. The
   framework has been validated by applying it on nine OSS projects and
   comparing the results with the outcomes obtained through an existing OSS
   evaluation methodology. The comparative analysis demonstrated that the
   proposed framework aligns with the aforementioned evaluation methodology
   while offering an opportunity for in-depth analysis on the dynamics of
   volunteer communities, which is lacking in previous evaluation methods.
   These insights can prove valuable for both potential adopters and
   project maintainers, aiding them in making informed strategic decisions.
   Framework for Project Community Assessment and Ranking follows a phased
   approach where first phase involves OSS project identification, second
   phase defines assessment criteria, in third phase data is fetched,
   stored and metrics are computed; and the last phase involves final
   Quality Assessment and Ranking. The framework will aid both corporate
   entities and individual practitioners in identifying an open source
   project with a robust volunteer community capable of producing a product
   of exceptional quality.image},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) licenses regulate the conditions under which
   OSS can be legally reused, distributed, and modified. However, a common
   issue arises when incorporating third-party OSS accompanied with
   licenses, i.e., license incompatibility, which occurs when multiple
   licenses exist in one project and there are conflicts between them.
   Despite being problematic, fixing license incompatibility issues
   requires substantial efforts due to the lack of license understanding
   and complex package dependency. In this paper, we propose LiResolver, a
   fine-grained, scalable, and flexible tool to resolve license
   incompatibility issues for open source software. Specifically, it first
   understands the semantics of licenses through fine-grained entity
   extraction and relation extraction. Then, it detects and resolves
   license incompatibility issues by recommending official licenses in
   priority. When no official licenses can satisfy the constraints, it
   generates a custom license as an alternative solution. Comprehensive
   experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of LiResolver, with 4.09\%
   false positive (FP) rate and 0.02\% false negative (FN) rate for
   incompatibility issue localization, and 62.61\% of 230 real-world
   incompatible projects resolved by LiResolver. We discuss the feedback
   from OSS developers and the lessons learned from this work. All the
   datasets and the replication package of LiResolver have been made
   publicly available to facilitate follow-up research.},

   important features relevant to these tensions. More recently a

Abstract = {The tags of open-source software (OSS) are important for managing and
   retrieving a massive amount of OSS in the OSS community, untagged OSS
   makes managing and retrieving OSS on GitHub difficult. However,
   developers sometimes neglect to write tag for repositories. For example,
   in our collected dataset with over 43K GitHub repositories, more than 32
   \% of the repository are unlabeled. To alleviate this problem, we
   propose an approach to automatically generate repository tag based on a
   neural network and LDA by utilizing package dependencies and readme
   among OSS in communities. We design an algorithm for extracting the tag
   features of dependent OSS packages and build dependent feature vectors
   for OSS. We then combine the vectors with topic of OSS readme file as
   input to train the neural network and obtain the tag distribution
   probability of OSS, and subsequently, recommend tags for OSS.
   Experiments are performed on the OSS dataset that we collected from
   GitHub, over 43K repositories and evaluate our approach on this dataset.
   Experiment results show that DepTagRec performs better than other
   methods in terms of precision and recall, particularly on recall when
   recommending the top 10 tags for OSS.},

Abstract = {From its very inception, the study of software architecture has
   recognized architectural decay as a regularly occurring phenomenon in
   long-lived systems. Architectural decay is caused by repeated changes to
   a system during its lifespan. Despite decay's prevalence, there is a
   relative dearth of empirical data regarding the nature of architectural
   changes that may lead to decay, and of developers' understanding of
   those changes. In this paper, we take a step toward addressing that
   scarcity by conducting an empirical study of changes found in software
   architectures spanning several hundred versions of 14 open-source
   systems. Our study reveals several new findings regarding the frequency
   of architectural changes in software systems, the common points of
   departure in a system's architecture during maintenance and evolution,
   the difference between system-level and component-level architectural
   change, and the suitability of a system's implementation-level structure
   as a proxy for its architecture.},

Abstract = {We conduct an extensive statistical analysis on the social networks of
   contributors in Open Source Software (OSS) communities using datasets
   collected from two most fast-growing OSS social interaction sites,
   Github.com and Ohloh.net. Our goal is to analyze the connectivity
   structure of the social networks of contributors and to investigate the
   effect of the different social ties structures on developers' overall
   productivity to OSS projects. We, first, analyze the general structure
   of the social networks, e.g., graph distances and the degree
   distribution of the social networks. Our social network structure
   analysis confirms a power-law degree distribution and small-world
   characteristics. However, the degree mixing pattern shows that high
   degree nodes tend to connect more with low degree nodes suggesting a
   collaboration between experts and newbie developers. We further conduct
   the same analysis on affiliation networks and find that contributors
   tend to participate in projects of similar team sizes. Second, we study
   the correlation between various social factors (e.g., closeness and
   betweenness centrality, clustering coefficient and tie strength) and the
   productivity of the contributors in terms of the amount of contribution
   and commitment to OSS projects. The analysis is conducted under the
   contexts of global and local networks, where a global network analysis
   considers a developer's connectivity in the whole OSS community network,
   whereas a local network analysis considers a developer's connectivity
   within a team network that is affiliated to a project. The analysis
   demonstrates evident influence of the social factors on the developers'
   overall productivity.},

Abstract = {Software provided under open source licenses is widely used, from
   forming high-profile stand-alone applications (e.g., Mozilla Firefox) to
   being embedded in commercial offerings (e.g., network routers). Despite
   the high frequency of use of open source licenses, there has been little
   work about whether software developers understand the open source
   licenses that they use. To help understand whether or not developers
   understand the open source licenses they use, we conducted a survey that
   posed development scenarios involving three popular open source licenses
   (GNU GPL 3.0, GNU LGPL 3.0 and MPL 2.0) both alone and in combination.
   The 375 respondents to the survey, who were largely developers, gave
   answers consistent with those of a legal expert's opinion in 62\% of 42
   cases. Although developers clearly understood cases involving one
   license, they struggled when multiple licenses were involved. To
   understand the context in which licensing issues arise in practice, we
   analyzed real-world questions posed by developers about the three
   licenses considered in the survey on online question-and-answer
   communities. We also interviewed practicing developers about license
   interaction problems they have faced. Among several lessons, we learnt
   that licensing issues can constrain software evolution and that
   developers are cautious of more restrictive licenses. Our results
   indicate a need for tool support to help guide developers in
   understanding the structure of the code and the technical details of a
   project while taking into account the exact requirements imposed by the
   licenses involved.},

Abstract = {We present Clinica ((www.clinica.run), an open-source software platform
   designed to make clinical neuroscience studies easier and more
   reproducible. Clinica aims for researchers to (i) spend less time on
   data management and processing, (ii) perform reproducible evaluations of
   their methods, and (iii) easily share data and results within their
   institution and with external collaborators. The core of Clinica is a
   set of automatic pipelines for processing and analysis of multimodal
   neuroimaging data (currently, T1-weighted MRI, diffusion MRI, and PET
   data), as well as tools for statistics, machine learning, and deep
   learning. It relies on the brain imaging data structure (BIDS) for the
   organization of raw neuroimaging datasets and on established tools
   written by the community to build its pipelines. It also provides
   converters of public neuroimaging datasets to BIDS (currently ADNI,
   AIBL, OASIS, and NIFD). Processed data include image-valued scalar
   fields (e.g., tissue probability maps), meshes, surface-based scalar
   fields (e.g., cortical thickness maps), or scalar outputs (e.g.,
   regional averages). These data follow the ClinicA Processed Structure
   (CAPS) format which shares the same philosophy as BIDS. Consistent
   organization of raw and processed neuroimaging files facilitates the
   execution of single pipelines and of sequences of pipelines, as well as
   the integration of processed data into statistics or machine learning
   frameworks. The target audience of Clinica is neuroscientists or
   clinicians conducting clinical neuroscience studies involving multimodal
   imaging, and researchers developing advanced machine learning algorithms
   applied to neuroimaging data.},

Journal = {EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF RADIOLOGY},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {78},
Number = {2},
Pages = {259-265},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {In recent decades several major changes in computer and communication
   technology have pushed the limits of imaging informatics and PACS beyond
   the traditional system architecture providing new perspectives and
   innovative approach to a traditionally conservative medical community.
   Disruptive technologies such as the world-wide-web, wireless networking,
   Open Source software and recent emergence of cyber communities and
   social networks have imposed an accelerated pace and major quantum leaps
   in the progress of computer and technology infrastructure applicable to
   medical imaging applications.
   Methods: This paper reviews the impact and potential benefits of two
   major trends in consumer market software development and how they will
   influence the future of medical imaging informatics. Open Source
   software is emerging as an attractive and cost effective alternative to
   traditional commercial software developments and collaborative social
   networks provide a new model of communication that is better suited to
   the needs of the medical community.
   Observations: Evidence shows that successful Open Source software tools
   have penetrated the medical market and have proven to be more robust and
   cost effective than their commercial counterparts. Developed by
   developers that are themselves part of the user community, these tools
   are usually better adapted to the user's need and are more robust than
   traditional software programs being developed and tested by a large
   number of contributing users. This context allows a much faster and more
   appropriate development and evolution of the software platforms.
   Similarly, communication technology has opened up to the general public
   in a way that has changed the social behavior and habits adding a new
   dimension to the way people communicate and interact with each other.
   The new paradigms have also slowly penetrated the professional market
   and ultimately the medical community. Secure social networks allowing
   groups of people to easily communicate and exchange information is a new
   model that is particularly suitable for some specific groups of
   healthcare professional and for physicians. It has also changed the
   expectations of how patients wish to communicate with their physicians.
   Conclusion: Emerging disruptive technologies and innovative paradigm
   such as Open Source software are leading the way to a new generation of
   information systems that slowly will change the way physicians and
   healthcare providers as well as patients will interact and communicate
   in the future. The impact of these new technologies is particularly
   effective in image communication, PACS and teleradiology. (C) 2010

Abstract = {Finding real examples that follow the evolution of Software Engineering
   is not an easy task for instructors in the field. Open Source Software
   (OSS) projects have been an alternative to support education in Software
   Engineering, as they allow contact with real development projects and
   environments. However, the adoption of these projects in the classroom
   presents some obstacles, such as choosing the appropriate project, and
   the time and effort needed to prepare the classes and get used to the
   open source environment. In order to reduce the difficulties faced by
   instructors, we are working on developing a portal to catalog worked
   examples extracted from OSS projects to assist instructors. In this
   paper, we present the first steps towards creating this catalog, which
   is creating a pattern for guiding the structuring the worked examples.
   We are applying the Design Science Research paradigm. The activities
   reported in this paper regards the first Design Cycle, and were divided
   into three stages related to the elaboration and evaluation of the
   pattern for cataloging the worked examples. In these stages, we carried
   out focus groups and interviews with Software Engineering instructors,
   including the instantiation of the pattern to catalog actual worked
   examples. After each stage, we had a new and improved version of the
   pattern for cataloging the worked examples. Such pattern served as a
   basis to create the first version of the worked examples portal, which
   will be evaluated in the next stages of the research.},

Abstract = {Lee et al. (2015) proposed multi purposed evaluation model named
   Behavior-Structure-Evolution Evaluation Model(BSEM) for the purpose of
   proposing evaluation framework for open source software service
   companies based on general corporate valuation model. The evaluation
   model is composed of three factors. First, enterprise service level of
   Open source software is divided by Service Area, Service domain and
   Service Activity. Second, technical reference model of Open source
   software is divided by Service Area, Open source software technical
   Domain, Technical Sub-Domain, Open Source Software Name. Third, index of
   evaluation level is divided by evaluation group, evaluation domain and
   evaluation item.
   Therefore, main purpose of this study is to applying BSEM for OSS
   service companies to adaptability, expandability and objectivity of
   BSEM. We chose 2 out of 290 OSS service companies and they offer
   operating system and Database management system services. We applied
   Technology Reference Model(TRM) for technical domain. At last we applied
   21 evaluation indexes for measuring each service level. Also we measured
   service weight by OSS experts and applied for BSEM model.
   After whole evaluation indexes are calculated BSEM suggested final
   service level by showing alphabet from AAA to D and BSEM affords the
   detailed service level for BSEM user.},

   institute for training school administrators took part in the study. The
   data were analyzed using descriptive statistic focusing on reporting of
   the results in percentile, means, standard deviation and frequency. As
   it compared the performance results of two groups, a simple T-test was
   also performed. The results revealed that e-Headship has succeeded in

Abstract = {\#semantic Climate is an international open research community led by
   young Indian scientists who use Open Notebook Science to transform
   information into structured filtered and actionable knowledge. The key
   project mission is to liberate scientific climate data, making it
   equitable and freely accessible to everyone. The \#semantic Climate
   community achieves this through two central activities, namely
   collaborative open notebook science, and citizen engagement. The first
   activity is research oriented and involves creation of a
   proof-of-concept software toolkit that uses AI over NLP to transform
   locked literature (such as PDF documents) into semantic, hypermedia
   form. This is a non-trivial task, that has haunted developers for over
   three decades, and the \#semantic Toolkit makes complex climate reports
   not just easily accessible, but also processable by machines, embedded
   in the Global Knowledge Graph and thereby connected to multilingual
   resources. The second activity is where the \#semantic Climate community
   engages citizens in climate action and awareness through interactive
   hackathons, open and transparent working practices, and using Git
   versioning. From a citizen science perspective, this includes designing
   community outreach activities (games), giving attribution to all
   participants, and engaging the wider public in the culture and practices
   of science (verifiable knowledge, review, data science, modern
   infrastructure use, etc). This article is an overview of the \#semantic
   Climate community building efforts, and how the project employs
   strategies, techniques, and ideas from the fields of Open Notebook
   Science. The open-source software culture and projects follow UNESCO
   Open Science values, and knowledge justice for the Global South, towards
   addressing knowledge neo-colonisation.},

Abstract = {Studies on Open Source Software (OSS) developer communities have long
   stated that there is a relationship between community structure and
   tasks carried out by project members. This relationship has been
   exemplified by the onion model, which has been instrumental in
   understanding self-coordination in OSS projects. Despite its ubiquity,
   there is a lack of empirical evidence to validate the relative position
   of each task cluster within the onion model. In this study, we map out
   the community structure of a large open source project and observe its
   bug-fixing patterns to explore the relationship between tasks and
   structure. Our study makes three significant contributions. First, we
   find no empirical evidence to support the structural location of
   bug-fixing tasks in the onion structure. Second, we find empirical
   evidence to support the core-periphery continuum model linking an
   actor'scorenessto problem-solving ability. Third, our results suggest
   that the importance and location of each task within the core-periphery
   structure evolve over time. These findings add clarity to the community
   structure and their implications for the management and coordination of
   collaborative innovation projects.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is a core part of virtually all software

   and the economy, the security aspect has attracted researchers'
   attention to investigate this distinctive phenomenon. Traditionally,
   research on OSS security has often focused on technical aspects of
   software development. We argue that these aspects are important,
   however, technical security practice considering different social
   aspects of OSS development will assure the effectiveness and efficiency
   of the implementation of the tool. To mitigate this research gap, in
   this empirical study, we explore the current security culture in the OSS
   development phenomenon using a survey instrument with six evaluation
   dimensions: attitude, behavior, competency, subjective norms,
   governance, and communication. By exploring the current security culture
   in OSS communities, we can start to understand the influence of security
   on participants' security behaviors and decision-making, so that we can
   make realistic and practical suggestions. In this paper, we present the
   measurements of security culture adopted in the study and discuss
   corresponding security issues that need to be addressed in OSS

Abstract = {In many open source software development communities, a significant
   proportion of development is undertaken by a relatively small number of
   individuals, the ``core members{''}. The stability and longevity of this
   group of most active developers are crucial for the success of the
   project. While there has been prior work on identifying key individuals
   in open source development, little attention has been devoted to the
   identification of cross-cutting core individuals (boundary spanners)
   whose responsibilities span across different functional areas of open
   source development (e.g., who are involved both in development-centric
   activities and user-centric activities). To address this gap, we propose
   an approach to identify the core cross-cutting members and their roles
   within the community through analyzing email communication repositories.
   We use Social Network Analysis (SNA) tools to identify the most active
   core members in different forums (that have different focus such as
   Python-dev that focuses on language evolution and Python Lists that
   focus on user support), and their activities over time, thus identifying
   the core developers and their involvement in different community mailing
   lists. Based on the involvement of a core developer and the overall
   social structure of the network of core developers, we also present an
   approach for identifying a potential replacement for a community
   administrator that steps down. Using email repositories of six main
   Python forums as the case study domain, we computed several social
   network analysis metrics to characterize the core developers and their
   importance in the Python community.},

   justice, procedural justice and interactional justice, has significant
   effects on trust and satisfaction, both of which further determine

Abstract = {Software Engineering researchers and practitioners have sought a
   systematic way of characterizing technical and social behaviors in
   software development, from the perspective of either an artifact (e.g.
   design pattern) or an actor (e.g. developer). In this context,
   influencers are those who guide the development methods and disseminate
   patterns due to their popularity or status in the community. Especially
   in software ecosystems, the dynamics of interactions with interventions
   of external developers over a common technological platform leverage the
   effects of influence and still remains as a challenge. This paper
   presents an exploratory study on the sense of influence in open source
   software ecosystems, more specifically from the opinions of 95
   developers who contribute to npm projects based on GitHub. To do so,
   qualitative data from a conducted survey research were analyzed based on
   Grounded Theory ( GT) procedures. Based on two main categories
   (Technical and Social), we recognized aspects that reinforce some key
   characteristics of an influencer, e.g., `status in the project',
   `participation with code', `participation with comments', and `content
   value'. However, some diverging aspects were observed, e.g., the
   difference between qualitative and quantitative responses related to
   `long-time interaction with the project'. This study contributes with
   the identification of influencers' characteristics that can aid both
   researchers in further studies on open source software ecosystems and
   practitioners in strategies to manage project-based ecosystems.},

   complexity. We borrow the concept of modulation from audio synthesis to
   explain how a preexisting signal-in our case, the ongoing community
   discourse-is modulated to produce varying sounds-in our case, the
   novelty and complexity of the software. The concept of modulation offers
   a lens to understand how emergent, community-wide development activities
   are influenced by filtering discursive positions and mixing those
   positions, thereby shaping the artifact's novelty and complexity. Our
   research shows that the modulation of novelty exhibits a range from
   ``proximal{''} to ``distal{''} searches for new features, while the
   modulation of complexity varies between ``integration{''} and
   ``deprecation.{''} By drawing on these concepts, we formulate a theory
   that explains how modulation results in alternative OSS community
   approaches to shaping software novelty and complexity and how this
   process reflects and is reflected in the resulting software artifact.},

Abstract = {Source code management systems (such as git) record changes to code
   repositories of Open-Source Software (OSS) projects. The metadata about
   a change includes a change message to record the intention of the
   change. Classification of changes, based on change messages, into
   different change types has been explored in the past to understand the
   evolution of software systems from the perspective of change size and
   change density only. However, software evolution analysis based on
   change classification with a focus on change evolution patterns is still
   an open research problem. This study examines change messages of 106 OSS
   projects, as recorded in the git repository, to explore their
   evolutionary patterns with respect to the types of changes performed
   over time. An automated keyword-based classifier technique is applied to
   the change messages to categorize the changes into various types
   (corrective, adaptive, perfective, preventive, and enhancement). Cluster
   analysis helps to uncover distinct change patterns that each change type
   follows. We identify three categories of 106 projects for each change
   type: high activity, moderate activity, and low activity. Evolutionary
   behavior is different for projects of different categories. The projects
   with high and moderate activity receive maximum changes during 76-81
   months of the project lifetime. The project attributes such as the
   number of committers, number of files changed, and total number of
   commits seem to contribute the most to the change activity of the
   projects. The statistical findings show that the change activity of a
   project is related to the number of contributors, amount of work done,
   and total commits of the projects irrespective of the change type.
   Further, we explored languages and domains of projects to correlate
   change types with domains and languages of the projects. The statistical
   analysis indicates that there is no significant and strong relation of
   change types with domains and languages of the 106 projects.},

Abstract = {This paper investigates the contribution of stakeholder collaboration

   study is based on the Presidential National Commission, a South African
   government department that migrated from proprietary software to open
   source software in 2007. The organization was one of the few that
   migrated to open source software as part of a South African government
   initiative. The case study consisted of semi-structured interviews with
   the participants involved in the migration. The interviews centered on
   the contribution of stakeholder collaboration during the software
   migration using a boundary critique. The results suggest that
   stakeholder collaboration can contribute to open source software
   migration. From a managerial perspective, business leaders must
   understand the value of stakeholder collaboration in open source
   software migration. Boundary critique can be an important tool for
   achieving broader collaboration of stakeholders.},

Abstract = {Video-based structural dynamics are becoming increasingly popular on
   account of their high spatial resolution and relatively low costs. These
   techniques show promise for applications such as structural health
   monitoring. However, video-based approaches to measuring structural
   dynamics are not as sensitive as on-contact sensor-based techniques.
   Furthermore, because video-based techniques involve capturing a 2D
   perspective projection of the 3D environment, there is an added
   complication in extracting calibrated quantitative measurements from
   these systems. In many applications, it would be advantageous to deploy
   networks, or arrays of imagers for monitoring large-scale infrastructure
   from different perspectives. Often, computer vision techniques, such as
   multi-view stereo, benefit from knowledge of the position and
   orientation of the cameras. Unfortunately, accurately knowing this
   information can lead to increased setup costs. Furthermore, it is not
   always clear what arrangement of cameras would be sufficient for any
   given infrastructure monitoring applications. In addition, the
   performance of arrays of imagers is affected by factors such as lighting
   conditions and weather. There may also be significant restrictions on
   the physical locations where imagers are allowed to be placed. For these
   reasons, it is advantageous to have tools to aid in the design and
   development of imager-based sensor networks for structural dynamics
   applications. In this work, we demonstrate the use of open-source
   computer graphics software for simulating the behavior of imagers
   observing dynamic structures. We demonstrate the ability to use these
   tools to plan the deployment of imager-based sensor networks to rapidly
   test and develop algorithms and techniques for video-based structural
   dynamics.},

Title = {A resilience-based framework for assessing the evolution of open source
   software projects},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SOFTWARE-EVOLUTION AND PROCESS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {36},
Number = {5},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) has been developing for more than two
   decades. It originated as a movement with the introduction of the first
   free/libre OSS operating system, became a popular trend among the
   developer community, led to enterprise solutions widely embraced by the
   global market, and began garnering attention from significant players in
   the software industry (such as IBM's acquisition of RedHat). Throughout
   the years, numerous software assessment models have been suggested, some
   of which were created specifically for OSS projects. Most of these
   assessment models focus on software quality and maintainability. Some
   models are taking under consideration health aspects of OSS projects.
   Despite the multitude of these models, there is yet to be a universally
   accepted model for assessing OSS projects. In this work, we aim to adapt
   the City Resilience Framework (CRF) for use in OSS projects to establish
   a strong theoretical foundation for OSS evaluation focusing on the
   project's resilience as it evolves over time. We would like to highlight
   that our goal with the proposed assessment model is not to compare two
   OSS solutions with each other, in terms of resilience, or even do a
   resilience ranking between the available OSS tools. We are aiming to
   investigate resilience of an OSS project as it evolves and identify
   possible opportunities of improvements in the four dimensions we are
   defining. These dimensions are as follows: source code, business and
   legal, integration and reuse, and social (community). The CRF is a
   framework that was introduced to measure urban resilience and most
   specifically how cities' resilience is changing as they evolve. We
   believe that a software evaluation model that focuses on resilience can
   complement the pre-existing models based on software quality and
   software health. Although concepts that are related to resilience, like
   sustainability or viability, already appear in literature, to our best
   knowledge, there is no OSS assessment model that evaluates the
   resilience of an OSS project. We argue that cities and OSS projects are
   both dynamically evolving systems with similar characteristics. The
   proposed framework utilizes both quantitative and qualitative
   indicators, which is viewed as an advantage. Lastly, we would like to
   emphasize that the framework has been tested on the enterprise software
   domain as part of this study, evaluating five major versions of six OSS
   projects, Laravel, Composer, PHPMyAdmin, OKApi, PatternalPHP, and
   PHPExcel, the first three of which are intuitively considered resilient
   and the three latter nonresilient, to provide a preliminary validation
   of the models' ability to distinguish between resilient and not
   resilient projects.},

   different social tie structures on developers' overall productivity to
   OSS projects. We first analyze the general structure of the social
   networks, e.g., graph distances and the degree distribution of the
   social networks. Our analysis confirms that the social networks of OSS
   communities follow power-law degree distributions and exhibit
   small-world characteristics. However, the degree mixing pattern shows
   that high degree nodes tend to connect more with low degree nodes,
   suggesting collaborations between experts and newbie developers. Second,
   we study the correlation between graph degrees and the productivity of
   the contributors in terms of the amount of contribution and commitment
   to OSS projects. The analysis demonstrates evident influence of the
   social ties on the developers' overall productivity.},

   framework of the implementation of a service oriented ERP. To operate
   the migration of the existing code, firstly we reconstituted the
   architecture of this ERP. This operation made it possible to acquire the
   technical knowledge necessary to develop services by injection of
   dependence. The new software resulting from this operation distinctly
   separates the presentation tier from the back-end. The back-end tier
   exposes a set of Web services which encapsulates the code of ADempiere.
   These services can either be in a synchronous way throughout the Spring
   XFire technology, or in an asynchronous way through Apache ActiveMQ
   technology.},

Abstract = {A developer's reputation in the OSS community is determined by all the
   evaluations received from his or her peers. While a large body of
   studies focuses on the importance of developers' reputations in their
   participation motivations, there is still lack of understanding for two
   issues. First, which factors can lead to a high developer's reputation?
   Second, how does the overall reputation of the developers' in a project
   impact project success? In this study, we develop a theoretical model
   and conduct an empirical analysis in a large online open source
   community. The results show that a developer's reputation level is
   determined by his or her 1) coding quality, 2) the deviation of the
   commitment behavior, 3) community experience, and 4) collaboration
   experience. In addition, we find that the group with an overall higher
   level of reputation would achieve a better performance, while the
   individual reputation level deviation within the group would impair its
   technical success. The implications of our findings and the future
   research directions are then discussed. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All

Abstract = {Traditional Software Engineering (SE) courses often prioritize
   methodologies and concepts in small, controlled environments: naive
   projects used as a proof of concept instead of full-fledged real
   software systems. Although this strategy has clear benefits, it does not
   place enough care in training students to face complex, non-trivial
   legacy software projects. To bridge this gap, novel SE courses are
   leveraging the rich variety of open-source software (OSS) projects to
   illustrate how these methodologies and concepts are applied to existing,
   non-trivial software systems. To better understand the benefits,
   challenges, and opportunities of this transition, in this paper, we
   interview seven SE professors that changed their academic setting to
   aspire students to comprehend, maintain, and evolve OSS systems as part
   of their SE course. We found that there are different ways to make use
   of OSS projects in SE courses in terms of project choice, assessment,
   and learning goals. Moreover, we evidence clear benefits of this
   approach, including improving students' social and technical skills, and
   helping students enhancing their resume. Also, we observed that this
   strategy comes with costs: the activity demands effort and time from the
   professor and the barrier for one getting involved with and, therefore,
   placing a meaningful contribution, in an OSS community is often high.},

Abstract = {This paper addresses the development of mechanisms for the creation of
   OSSD exchanges that could be used by developers across any geographical
   range, as long as all the developers can interact via some open network
   infrastructure such as the Internet. The structure of these exchanges
   can range from public repositories such as Sourceforge.net to
   intra-organizational forums for software development within an
   enterprise. We examine in particular the structure of an exchange model
   based on protocols for a robust online marketplace.},

Abstract = {The critical phase of Requirements Engineering (RE) is an active
   research domain for decades. The evolutions in RE over the years have
   improved them considerably but still many anomalies exist. It is
   especially true for the case of Open Source Software Development (OSSD)
   where most informal requirements and communications exist. With growing
   problems and extreme participant heterogeneity, the usual methods of
   ambiguity resolution do not seem to cater needs of OSSD community. For
   this purpose, various interdisciplinary mechanisms can be used to aid
   the community members and reach a consensus based agreement along with
   reaching unambiguous requirements sets. A framework is proposed for
   resolving the burdening problems of OSSD context. Framework components
   are discussed in detail to give an overview of developable ambiguity
   resolution strategies.},

Title = {``Computing{''} Requirements for Open Source Software: A Distributed
   Cognitive Approach},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {19},
Number = {12},
Pages = {1217-1252},
Abstract = {Most requirements engineering (RE) research has been conducted in the
   context of structured and agile software development. Software, however,
   is increasingly developed in open source software (OSS) forms which have
   several unique characteristics. In this study, we approach OSS RE as a
   sociotechnical, distributed cognitive process where distributed actors
   ``compute{''} requirements- i.e., transform requirements-related
   knowledge into forms that foster a shared understanding of what the
   software is going to do and how it can be implemented. Such computation
   takes place through social sharing of knowledge and the use of
   heterogeneous artifacts. To illustrate the value of this approach, we
   conduct a case study of a popular OSS project, Rubinius-a runtime
   environment for the Ruby programming language-and identify ways in which
   cognitive workload associated with RE becomes distributed socially,
   structurally, and temporally across actors and artifacts. We generalize
   our observations into an analytic framework of OSS RE, which delineates
   three stages of requirements computation: excavation, instantiation, and
   testing-in-the-wild. We show how the distributed, dynamic, and
   heterogeneous computational structure underlying OSS development builds
   an effective mechanism for managing requirements. Our study contributes
   to sorely needed theorizing of appropriate RE processes within highly
   distributed environments as it identifies and articulates several novel
   mechanisms that undergird cognitive processes associated with
   distributed forms of RE.},

Journal = {ACM TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTING EDUCATION},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {19},
Number = {2, SI},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Global software engineering (GSE) courses traditionally require
   cooperation between at least two universities so as to provide a
   distributed development environment to the students. In this study, we
   explore an alternative way to organize a global software engineering
   course where students work on open source software development (OSSD)
   projects rather than in a multi-university collaboration setting. The
   results show that the new setup may provide core GSE challenges as well
   as challenges associated with software development outsourcing and
   challenges related to working on large open source software. The present
   article compares the experiences gained from running a combined GSE and
   OSSD course against the experiences gained from running a traditional
   GSE course. The two alternatives are compared in terms of students'
   learning outcomes and course organization. The authors found that a
   combined GSE and OSSD course provides learning opportunities that are
   partly overlapping with, and partly complementary to, a traditional GSE
   course. The authors also found that the combined OSSD and GSE course was
   somewhat easier to organize because most of the activities took place in
   a single university setting. The authors used the extended GSE taxonomy
   for the comparison and found it to be a useful tool for this, although
   it had some limitations in expressive power. Therefore, two additional
   relationship dimensions are proposed that will further enrich the
   extended taxonomy in classifying GSE (and OSSD) projects.},

Journal = {B E JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ANALYSIS \& POLICY},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {15},
Number = {3},
Pages = {1381-1416},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {One of the puzzling aspects of open-source software (OSS) development is
   its public good nature. Individual developers contribute to developing
   the software, but do not hold the copyright to appropriate its value.
   This raises questions regarding motives behind such effort. We provide
   an integrated model of developers' incentives to describe OSS
   development and compare restrictive OSS licenses that force all
   modifications to be kept open with non-restrictive OSS licenses that
   allow proprietary ownership of modified works. Different incentives
   govern effort provision at different stages of the software development
   process. We show that open-source licenses can provide socially valuable
   software when a proprietary license fails to do so. We also show that
   restrictive OSS licenses generate greater effort provision in the design
   stage of software development relative to non-restrictive licenses.
   Endogenizing licensing choice, we find that a project leader chooses a
   non-restrictive OSS license if reputational concerns drive developers'
   incentives, a proprietary license when there is a large population of
   users in the market and a restrictive OSS license if user population is
   small but reputational benefit is high. Our results resonate well with
   empirical findings and suggest additional testable implications about
   the relationship between licensing and software project characteristics.
   Finally, we also find that the market under-provides restrictive OSS
   licenses relative to the efficient level, suggesting the need for
   subsidizing restrictive licenses in some cases.},

Abstract = {Free and open source software activities involve and, perhaps, evolve
   institutions (rules, norms and standards) that influence the formation,

   community grows. This paper examines the institutions of the Debian
   community where issues of community identity, distribution of authority,
   and decentralisation have facilitated growth and development. These same
   institutions have also resulted in conflicts regarding community
   purposes and the quality and delivery of the community's output. We
   examine the institutional redesign undertaken to address these problems

Abstract = {This paper analyzes the impact on social welfare of government policies
   supporting open source software (OSS). Mass-market consumers can be
   divided between those who are informed about the existence of OSS and
   those who are uninformed. Since OSS producers have little incentive to
   advertise, there may be a substantial mass of uniformed consumers,
   leading to market failures that may justify government intervention. We
   study three government policies: (a) mandated adoption, whereby the
   government forces public agencies, schools, and universities to adopt
   OSS, (b) information provision, whereby the government informs the
   uninformed users about the existence and the characteristics of OSS, and
   (c) subsidy, whereby the government makes a payment to consumers if they
   adopt OSS. We show that mandated adoption and information provision may
   increase social welfare, but the subsidy always reduces it. When network
   externalities are added to the model, we show that mandated adoption and
   information provision may increase social welfare if they help the
   market to tip towards standardization.},

   This software seamlessly integrates new models for source identification
   based on air trajectories and ambient air pollution concentration data
   and enhances certain existing ones. Beyond source identification, it
   offers a rich array of functionalities for making it automatic, quick
   and easy to get access many kinds data including gridded meteorological
   data, trajectory calculations, synoptic parameter extraction from
   back-trajectories. All this functionalities can be used through a
   user-friendly graphical interface. Open-AMA can be a significant leap
   forward in air quality research and analysis, empowering researchers
   with the tools they need to make informed decisions and address pressing
   environmental and public health challenges and enhance understanding of

   (i) develop a model-based approach to safely support the upgrade of FOSS
   systems, (ii) develop better algorithms and tools to plan upgrade paths
   based on various information sources about software packages and on
   optimization criteria.
   The paper focuses on the first objective of the project. The main result
   of this objective is an approach that promotes the simulation of
   upgrades to predict failures before affecting the real system. Both
   fine-grained static aspects (e. g., configuration incoherences) and
   dynamic aspects (e. g., the execution of configuration scripts) are
   taken into account, improving over the state of the art of package

Abstract = {The widespread dependency on open-source software makes it a fruitful

   complexity of today's opensource supply chains results in a significant

   goal of injecting malicious code into open-source artifacts that is then
   downloaded and executed by victims.
   This work proposes a general taxonomy for attacks on opensource supply
   chains, independent of specific programming languages or ecosystems, and
   covering all supply chain stages from code contributions to package
   distribution. Taking the form of an attack tree, it covers 107 unique
   vectors, linked to 94 realworld incidents, and mapped to 33 mitigating
   safeguards. User surveys conducted with 17 domain experts and 134
   software developers positively validated the correctness,
   comprehensiveness and comprehensibility of the taxonomy, as well as its
   suitability for various use-cases. Survey participants also assessed the
   utility and costs of the identified safeguards, and whether they are

Journal = {JOURNAL OF STRATEGIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {22},
Number = {4},
Pages = {269-281},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Prior network-based research on open source software (OSS) development
   has focused on the benefit of network ties and assumed all network ties
   play the same role. We adopt a fine-grained view of network relations to
   investigate the impact of network ties on the success of OSS
   development. Through examining the development of OSS projects hosted by
   SourceForge, we find that co-membership among project teams is an
   effective mechanism for building network ties, through which knowledge
   and expertise flows across projects in OSS community and, therefore,
   contributes to the success of OSS development. However, network ties
   among projects not only confer benefit, but also incur various cost, and
   due to the different growth patterns of cost and benefit, network ties
   have a diminishing return to project success. In addition, we find
   network ties of leader-follower type and follower-leader type are more
   beneficial to OSS success than other types of ties, and network ties
   connecting to projects of later development stages are more beneficial
   than those connecting to projects of earlier stages. Our study provides
   useful guidelines and suggestions as to how to leverage the knowledge
   and expertise of others for successful development of OSS projects. (C)

Abstract = {We learned from the history of software that great software are the ones
   who manage to sustain their quality. Free and open source software
   (FOSS) has become a serious software supply channel. However, trust on
   FOSS products is still an issue. Quality is a trait that enhances trust.
   In my study, I investigate the following question: how do FOSS
   communities sustain their software quality? I argue that human and
   social factors contribute to the sustainability of quality in FOSS
   communities. Amongst these factors are: the motivation of participants,
   robust governance style for the software change process, and the
   exercise of good practices in the pull requests evaluation process.},

Abstract = {Cloud computing technology offers great possibilities in contexts with
   infrastructural difficulties and can provide a bridge to help overcome
   the existing gap in European rural schools due to their lack of
   resources, isolation, infrastructural limitations and technological
   support. The purpose of this study was to design, implement and evaluate
   an environment for flexible teaching and collaboration in rural schools
   in Europe based on cloud computing technology and was carried out in the
   framework of a European research project (RuralSchoolCloud). For this
   purpose, a design-based research (DBR) was conducted in 14 rural schools
   in five European countries (Denmark, Spain, UK, Italy, Greece). The
   study sample consisted of a total of 560 students and 72 teachers of
   kindergarten, primary and compulsory secondary education who answered
   the ``Questionnaire for the analysis of the cloud computing RSC
   educational environment{''}. Overall, the results show that the RSC
   educational environment proved to be a powerful tool to provide a
   functional and usable technical educational resource for EU rural
   schools, allowing temporal and spatial flexibility in teacher and
   student interactions, and providing a tool adapted to the different
   characteristics, needs and interests of rural schools.},

Abstract = {Trust is integral for the successful and secure functioning of software
   supply chains, making it important to measure the state and evolution of
   trust in open source communities. However, existing security and supply
   chain research often studies the concept of trust without a clear
   definition and relies on obvious and easily available signals like
   GitHub stars without deeper grounding. In this paper, we explore how to
   measure trust in open source supply chains with the goal of developing
   robust measures for trust based on the behaviors of developers in the
   community. To this end, we contribute a process for decomposing trust in
   a complex large-scale system into key trust relationships,
   systematically identifying behavior-based indicators for the components
   of trust for a given relationship, and in turn operationalizing
   data-driven metrics for those indicators, allowing for the wide-scale
   measurement of trust in practice.},

   for collaborative work. One of the main contributors to these advances
   is the Open Source initiative, in which projects are boosted to a new
   level of interaction and cooperation that improves their software
   quality and reliability.
   In order to understand how the group of contributors interacts with the
   software under development, we propose a novel methodology that adapts
   Lotka-Volterra-based biological models used for host-parasite
   interaction. In that sense, we used the concept mutualism from social
   parasites.
   Preliminary results based on experiments on the Github collaborative
   platform showed that Open Source phenomena can be modeled as a
   mutualistic system, in terms of the evolution of the population of
   developers and repositories.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) products are widely used although a general
   consensus on their quality is far to be reached. Providing results on
   OSS reliability - as quality indicator contributes to shed some light on
   this issue and allows organizations to make informed decisions in
   adopting OSS products or in releasing their own OSS. In this paper, we
   use a classical technique of Software Reliability Growth to model
   failures occurrences across versions. We have collected data from the
   bug tracking systems of three OSS products, Mozilla Firefox, OpenSuse
   and OpenOffice.org. Our analysis aims at determining and discussing
   patterns of failure occurrences in the three OSS products to be used to
   predict reliability behaviour of future releases. Our findings indicate
   that in the three cases, failures occurrences follow a predetermined
   pattern, which shows: a) an initial stage in which the community learns
   the new version b) after this first period a rapid increase of the
   failure detection rate until c) very few failures are left and the
   discovery of a new failure discovery is rare. This is the stage in which
   the version can be considered reliable.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) projects have long been studied to understand
   the need of community support for their growth and survival. However,
   there has been limited research on developers' abandonment, though it is
   found to have detrimental effect on quality and sustainability of OSS
   projects. This paper examines the impact of developer and
   project-related factors on developer abandonment in OSS projects.
   Factors include developer attributes: experience, role, coding language,
   and joining date, and project attributes: change complexity and
   sentiments in commit logs. The findings are (1) for developer
   experience, core/non-core member, and joining date; there exists a
   pattern of developers abandoning the projects. (2) There is no definite
   answer for coding language. (3) It does not relate to the change profile
   of a project except a few indicators. Sentiments can also not be linked.
   These results provide OSS community and researchers with useful insights
   on developer abandonment and the factors influencing it or not.},

Abstract = {Case-Based Learning (CBL) is a teaching methodology based on discussing
   and analyzing real world problems and solutions. A case is like a story,
   related to a real world situation that sources a number of challenging
   problems, which have no obvious solutions. There have been various
   applications of CBL in the fields of Medicine, Law, and Business.
   However, there are a limited number of evidences related to the
   application of CBL in the field of Software Engineering (SE). In this
   paper, we present an open source web application called SEABED (Software
   Engineering Case-Based Learning Database). The feature set supported by
   SEABED comprises Case Submission, Case Collection, Case Search, Case
   Review, and Case Evolution. SEABED aims to develop and evolve a rich
   repository of SE cases that might become a basis for enabling the
   students, instructors, practitioners, and experts to enhance their SE
   knowledge in an effective way. Further, we present our approach to build
   a vibrant SE case-based learning community that triggers enough activity
   around SEABED, required for the platform to reach a critical and wider
   mass. We communicated with several SE educators around the world and
   received positive responses on SEABED. In order to investigate the
   effectiveness of the CBL methodology followed by SEABED, we conducted an
   experimental study at an Institute of National Importance in India. We
   present the empirical analysis results of this study and explore the
   impact of CBL on students' learning abilities.},

Abstract = {An influx of newcomers is critical to the survival, long-term success,
   and continuity of many Open Source Software (OSS) community-based
   projects. However, newcomers face many barriers when making their first
   contribution, leading in many cases to dropouts. Due to the
   collaborative nature of community-based OSS projects, newcomers may be
   susceptible to social barriers, such as communication breakdowns and
   reception issues. In this article, we report a two-phase study aimed at
   better understanding social barriers faced by newcomers. In the first
   phase, we qualitatively analyzed the literature and data collected from
   practitioners to identify barriers that hinder newcomers' first
   contribution. We designed a model composed of 58 barriers, including 13
   social barriers. In the second phase, based on the barriers model, we
   developed FLOSScoach, a portal to support newcomers making their first
   contribution. We evaluated the portal in a diary-based study and found
   that the portal guided the newcomers and reduced the need for
   communication. Our results provide insights for communities that want to
   support newcomers and lay a foundation for building better onboarding
   tools. The contributions of this paper include identifying and gathering
   empirical evidence of social barriers faced by newcomers; understanding
   how social barriers can be reduced or avoided by using a portal that
   organizes proper information for newcomers (FLOSScoach); presenting
   guidelines for communities and newcomers on how to reduce or avoid
   social barriers; and identifying new streams of research.},

   efforts. Central to this focus is the nature under which the software
   can be distributed, used, and modified and the causes and consequent
   effects on software development, usage, and distribution. At present, we
   have little understanding of, what happens when these licenses change,
   what motivates such changes, and how new licenses are created, updated,
   and deployed. Similarly, little attention has been paid to the
   agreements under which contributions are made to OSS projects and the
   impacts of changes to these agreements. We might also ask these same
   questions regarding the licenses governing how individuals and groups
   contribute to OSS projects. This paper focuses on addressing these
   questions with case studies of processes by which the Apache Software
   Foundation's creation and migration to Version 2.0 of the Apache
   Software License and the NetBeans project's migration to the Joint
   Licensing Agreement.},

Abstract = {Fast digitalization of the power grids and the adoption of innovative
   software solutions is key to a successful energy transition. In other
   sectors, such as telecommunication or cloud computing, open-source
   software has already proven capable of transforming entire industries,
   by speeding up development and lowering development costs while
   achieving high levels of stability, interoperability, and security.
   However, the energy sector has not yet embraced open-source software to
   the same level. We discuss how existing open-source software principles
   can be applied to the unique challenges of the energy sector during the
   transition towards higher penetration of renewable energy resources. To
   provide an overview of the current state of the open-source software
   landscape, we collected and analyzed 388 open-source projects, in terms
   of project activities, community composition, relevant licenses, and
   commonly used programming languages. One finding was that the majority
   of projects are currently driven by academic contributors, but that
   commercial players do also play a role, and we identify positive
   examples of collaboration between the two, mostly related to
   standardization.},

Abstract = {Employees of commercial software firms who participate in open source

   firms. We argue that the type of allegiance the individual holds towards
   their employing firm and the open source community has a strong
   influence of how they share knowledge with other community members. We
   use the examples of two open source software firms in New Zealand to
   ground the empirical inspiration of our paper and to illustrate our key
   ideas and arguments. We discuss the knowledge governance challenges
   imposed by employees' dual allegiance and how managers of open source

   statistics on their data in an easy-to-use GUI-driven format.
   Importantly, NUTMEG features an interactive five-dimensional data
   visualization platform. A key feature of NUTMEG is the availability of a
   large menu of interference cancelation and source reconstruction
   algorithms. Each NUTMEG operation acts as a stand-alone MATLAB function,
   allowing the package to be easily adaptable and scripted for the more
   advanced user for interoperability with other software toolboxes.

Abstract = {Image-Guided Neurosurgery (IGNS) systems use a set of techniques that
   help students and specialists in learning and planning of surgeries. The
   use of existing software for image-guided neurosurgery for applications
   in the area of education is limited because of its high cost. For this
   reason and due to the emergence of new tools based on open source
   software, reliable algorithms have been developed; these algorithms are
   able to provide a satisfactory user experience in the use of surgical
   simulators when compared with to commercial systems. This paper presents
   the development of two visualization methods useful in neurosurgical
   training and planning. The first allows the manipulation of volumes
   through cuts based on regular geometry, while the second allows the
   visualization of structures through cuts oblique planes. These were
   developed in 3D Slicer and applied to magnetic resonance imaging for
   evaluating performance, according to the very needs of the real
   neurosurgical domain.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) projects and communities are becoming
   increasingly popular and influential recently. Communications and
   collaborations are essential for the success of projects. Usually, the
   most active and productive programmers are awarded with promotion to
   developers. To more effectively manage and progress the projects, it is
   important and beneficial to rank the programmers and thus, predict the
   developer candidates. In this work, we propose to combine machine
   learning techniques with existing complex network node ranking
   algorithms to improve the prediction results. Specifically, we have made
   the following contributions: (1), we have designed a novel machine
   learning-based classifier with significantly improved prediction
   performance; (2), we have constructed and tested various networks built
   based on the programmer email communication information; and (3), we
   have used real-world project data to compare different techniques and
   validate our methods. Experimental results demonstrate that our
   technique reduces the error rate by 25\% compared with the second best.
   Moreover, we discover that the KK nearest neighbor (KNN)-based machine
   learning algorithm and non-directional temporal network with a time
   window of 1-3 months give the best prediction results.},

Abstract = {With the emergence of Web 2.0, an online platform which encourages
   online creation of next generation tools, communication has become a
   nigh-indispensable tool for researchers. Allowing them to acquire,
   spread, and share research achievements, with a free flow of ideas
   online. At present, there are a growing number of studies on
   non-traditional evaluation indicators, but there is much fewer research
   focused on the software evaluation, especially for open source research
   software. What this research focuses on is; with the use of the open
   source project `Depsy', this research evaluated and analyzed data
   collected from downloads made online through these open source software.
   Altmetrics cannot be confined to traditional measurable indicators. That
   the importance of the open source software used, and its position in the
   online community is itself a strong measure for academic impact and
   success, which is all too often overlooked in research. The research can
   also conclude that the multiplexing of software online, through the
   citation of a citation, ultimately leads to an online peered review
   system within the community, effectively developing and maintaining
   through open use software itself. Moreover, the benefits of such a
   system has only just begun to come to fruition, having a strong impact

Abstract = {Selecting an appropriate task is challenging for newcomers to Open
   Source Software (OSS) projects. Therefore, researchers and OSS projects
   have proposed strategies to label tasks (a.k.a. issues). Several
   approaches relying on machine learning techniques, historical
   information, and textual analysis have been submitted. However, the
   results vary, and these approaches are still far from mainstream
   adoption, possibly because of a lack of good predictors. Inspired by
   previous research, we advocate that the prediction models might benefit
   from leveraging social metrics.
   In this research, we investigate how to assist the new contributors in
   finding a task when onboarding a new project. To achieve our goal, we
   predict the skills needed to solve an open issue by labeling them with
   the categories of APIs declared in the source code (API-domain labels)
   that should be updated or implemented. Starting from a case study using
   one project and an empirical experiment, we found the API-domain labels
   were relevant to select an issue for a contribution. In the sequence, we
   investigated employing interviews and a survey of what strategies
   maintainers the strategies believe the communities have to adopt to
   assist the new contributors in finding a task. We also studied how
   maintainers think about new contributors' strategies to pick a task. We
   found maintainers, frequent contributors, and new contributors diverge
   about the importance of the communities and new contributors'
   strategies.
   The ongoing research works in three directions: 1) generalization of the
   approach, 2) Use of conversation data metrics for predictions, 3)
   Demonstration of the approach, and 4) Matching contributors and tasks
   skills.
   By addressing the lack of knowledge about the skills in tasks, we hope
   to assist new contributors in picking tasks with more confidence.},

Abstract = {Free and open source software has gained a lot of momentum in the

   platforms, examining developers specific licensing views for specific
   software. However, the questions practitioners ask about licenses and
   licensing as captured in Question and Answer websites also constitute an
   important aspect toward understanding practitioners general licenses and
   licensing concerns. In this paper, we investigate open source license
   discussions using data from the Software Engineering, Open Source and
   Law Stack Exchange sites that contain relevant data. We describe the
   process used for the data collection and analysis, and discuss the main
   results that can be useful for developers, educators and license

Journal = {POLITICAL THEOLOGY},
Year = {2017},

Abstract = {In this paper, I discuss how gift economy tenets exist within capitalist
   systems and in what ways the alternative logic of gift economies could
   be used within capitalist firms to create a more fair economy overall,
   citing open source software within the technology sector as one example.
   To do this, I begin by striking a dialectic between John Milbank's
   theological and David Graeber's anthropological conceptions of gift
   economies, illuminating crucial aspects of each to uncover what
   alternative economic principles are applicable to standard capitalist
   economic ideologies.
   I then turn to a practical application of where these gift economy
   ideologies are already being utilized to a degree, arguing specifically
   that open source software provides an alternative economic logic for
   countless members of the technology sector. On a broad level, I hope to
   show that capitalism provides the means to alter itself within its own
   ethos, as certain economic ideologies like gift economies - could
   potentially assuage those economic models that contribute to economic
   inequality. By accentuating these alternative logics within technology
   firms, they can be expanded and made more substantial, subsequently
   altering capitalism from the inside out.},

Journal = {RESEARCH POLICY},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {43},
Number = {4},
Pages = {632-644},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {The open source software (OSS) movement thrives on innovation and
   volunteer effort of developers. Scholars have expressed widespread
   concern about the sustainability of the OSS movement due to high levels
   of volunteerism. In this paper, we address a central challenge to the
   sustainability of OSS-developers' acceptance of monetary rewards. We
   strive to explain why some OSS developers accept monetary rewards and
   others do not. Viewed through the theoretical lens of the
   private-collective innovation model (Von Hippel and Von Krogh, 2003,
   2006), this allows us to describe when developers will accept private
   financial rewards. Our main research objective is to clearly map the web
   of relationships between causal antecedents, and developers' acceptance
   behavior. Using a unique dataset that combines survey and behavioral
   measures, we find that - (a) intention to accept monetary rewards
   mediates the impact of motivational elements on developers' acceptance
   of monetary rewards; (b) intrinsic and extrinsic motivations positively
   affect their intention to accept monetary rewards, community motivation
   negatively impacts intention and ideological motivation does not affect
   the intention to accept rewards and (c) these effects are obtained even
   after inclusion of several control variables. The theoretical and
   managerial implications of our work are described. (C) 2013 Elsevier

Abstract = {OpenMP, a widely adopted standard for shared memory parallel
   programming, is known for its simplicity and portability, making it
   accessible to programmers across various domains, not just HPC experts.
   This study aims at providing an overview of the current practice of
   OpenMP usage in open source projects. We focus our study on the
   considerations necessary for efficient OpenMP usage, as parallelizing an
   application with OpenMP comes with a certain overhead necessary for
   thread creation and management.
   For this purpose, we developed a binary analysis tool that automatically
   estimates the complexity of a parallel region allowing a comparison with
   the complexity of thread creation and management overhead in bluk. We
   applied this tool on a large set of 537 open source applications.
   Specifically, we want to answer the question: ``To what extent is the
   usage of OpenMP in general following known good practices from the HPC
   community?{''} In particular, we find that 45\% of projects contain at
   least one example of a rather simple parallel region. In these cases, it
   is questionable whether parallelization is worth the overhead necessary
   for thread creation and management. We also observe from the codes
   analysed that the style of using OpenMP apparently did not change over
   the last decade.
   Our analysis tool is available on GitHub:

Abstract = {COTS software products are developed extensively on top of OSS projects,
   resulting in OSS reuse vulnerabilities. To detect such vulnerabilities,
   finding OSS reuses in COTS software has become imperative. While
   scalable to tens of thousands of OSS projects, existing binary-to-source
   matching approaches are severely imprecise in analyzing COTS software
   products, since they support only a limited number of code features,
   compute matching scores only approximately in measuring OSS reuses, and
   neglect the code structures in OSS projects.
   We introduce a novel binary-to-source matching approach, called
   B2SFINDER1, to address these limitations. First of all, B2SFINDER can
   reason about seven kinds of code features that are traceable in both
   binary and source code. In order to compute matching scores precisely,
   B2SFINDER employs a weighted feature matching algorithm that combines
   three matching methods (for dealing with different code features) with
   two importance-weighting methods (for computing the weight of an
   instance of a code feature in a given COTS software application based on
   its specificity and occurrence frequency). Finally, B2SFINDER identifies
   different types of code reuses based on matching scores and code
   structures of OSS projects. We have implemented B2SFINDER using an
   optimized data structure. We have evaluated B2SFINDER using 21991
   binaries from 1000 popular COTS software products and 2189 candidate OSS
   projects. Our experimental results show that B2SFINDER is not only
   precise but also scalable. Compared with the state of the art, B2SFINDER
   has successfully found up to 2.15x as many reuse cases in 53.85 seconds
   per binary file on average. We also discuss how B2SFINDER can be
   leveraged in detecting OSS reuse vulnerabilities in practice.},

Journal = {NATURE COMMUNICATIONS},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {9},
Month = {APR 20},
Abstract = {Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) and inverse FRAP
   (iFRAP) assays can be used to assess the mobility of fluorescent
   molecules. These assays measure diffusion by monitoring the return of
   fluorescence in bleached regions (FRAP), or the dissipation of
   fluorescence from photoconverted regions (iFRAP). However, current
   FRAP/iFRAP analysis methods suffer from simplified assumptions about
   sample geometry, bleaching/photo-conversion inhomogeneities, and the
   underlying reaction-diffusion kinetics. To address these shortcomings,
   we developed the software PyFRAP, which fits numerical simulations of
   three-dimensional models to FRAP/iFRAP data and accounts for
   bleaching/photoconversion inhomogeneities. Using PyFRAP we determined
   the diffusivities of fluorescent molecules spanning two orders of
   magnitude in molecular weight. We measured the tortuous effects that
   cell-like obstacles exert on effective diffusivity and show that
   reaction kinetics can be accounted for by model selection. These
   applications demonstrate the utility of PyFRAP, which can be widely
   adapted as a new extensible standard for FRAP analysis.},

Abstract = {With software systems becoming increasingly large and complex, many
   difficulties in coping with software bugs arise for developers. Despite
   good development practices, thorough testing, and proper maintenance
   policies, a non-negligible number of bugs remain in the released
   software. Understanding the type of residual bugs is fundamental for
   adopting proper countermeasures in current and future software releases.
   Depending on the fault triggering conditions that lead to a failure,
   developers can introduce fault-tolerance mechanisms and plan
   verification and validation strategies.
   In this paper, we analyze bugs in four large open-source software
   systems during their lifecycle, based on the concept of fault triggers.
   We first investigate how the type of system affects the bug type
   proportions, and their evolution over years. Then, an analysis of bug
   subtypes is performed, so as to better understand their nature, followed
   by a comparison with respect to attributes such as their average time to
   fix and severity.},

Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Software engineering (SE) methodologies are widely used in both academia
   and industry to manage the software development life cycle. A number of
   studies of SE methodologies involve interviewing stakeholders to explore
   the real-world practice. Although these interview-based studies provide
   us with a user's perspective of an organization's practice, they do not
   describe the concrete summary of releases in open-source social coding
   platforms. In particular, no existing studies investigated how releases
   are evolved in open-source coding platforms, which assist release
   planners to a large extent. This study explores software development
   patterns followed in open-source projects to see the overall
   management's reflection on software release decisions rather than
   concentrating on a particular methodology. Our experiments on 51
   software origins (with 1777k revisions and 12k releases) from the
   Software Heritage Graph Dataset (SWHGD) and their GitHub project boards
   (with 23k cards) reveal reasonably active project management with phase
   simplicity can release software versions more frequently and can follow
   the small release conventions of Extreme Programming. Additionally, the
   study also reveals that a combination of development and management
   activities can be applied to predict the possible number of software

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is usually developed by heterogeneous groups
   of people, each with their own interests, motivations and abilities.
   Therefore, it is important to establish the best software development
   and contributing practices early in the life-time of the project. Such
   practices should foster the contributors' involvement in the OSS project
   as quickly as possible. The sustainability of an OSS project is heavily
   based on the underlying community of contributors and on the knowledge
   and skills they bring to the project and they acquire and develop
   through their participation in the project and interaction with the
   project community. Therefore, identifying and investigating
   contributors' learning processes is an important research area in OSS.
   This survey paper presents an overview of open source learning methods
   in order to explore how community interaction impacts the development
   and application of OSS learning processes in other areas, especially in
   education. It is argued that collaboration with peers and consistent
   code contributions result in learning progress in OSS. Typical research
   in this area is based on case by case analysis, whereas this survey

Abstract = {Many researchers have pointed out that the open source movement is an
   interesting phenomenon that is difficult to explain with conventional
   economic theories. However, while there is no shortage on research on
   individuals' motivation for contributing to open source, few have
   investigated the commercial companies' motivations for doing the same. A
   case study was conducted at three different companies from the IT
   service industry, to investigate three possible drivers: sale of
   complimentary services, innovation and opensourcing (outsourcing). We
   offer three conclusions.
   First, we identified three main drivers for contributing to open source,
   which are (a) selling complimentary services, (b) building greater
   innovative capability and (c) cost reduction through opensourcing to an
   external community. Second, while previous research has documented that
   the most important driver is selling complimentary services, we found
   that this picture is too simple. Our evidence points to a broader set of
   motivations, in the sense that all our cases exhibit combinations of the
   three drivers. Finally, our findings suggest that there might be a shift
   in how commercial companies view open source software. The companies
   interviewed have all expressed a moral obligation to contribute to open
   source. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {A common claim is that open source software development produces higher
   quality software at lower cost than traditional commercial development.
   To validate such claims, researchers have conducted case studies of
   ``successful{''} open source development projects. This case study of
   the FreeBSD project provides further understanding of open source
   development. The FreeBSD development process is fairly well-defined with
   proscribed methods for determining developer responsibilities, dealing
   with enhancements and defects, and for managing releases. Compared to
   the Apache project, FreeBSD uses a smaller set of core developers that
   implement a smaller portion of the system, and uses a more well-defined
   testing process. FreeBSD and Apache have a similar ratio of core
   developers to (1) people involved in adapting and debugging the system,
   and (2) people who report problems. Both systems have similar defect
   densities, and the developers are also users in both systems.},

Abstract = {Competition from open source software and free software (OSS/FS)
   alternatives is causing proprietary software producers to reevaluate
   product strategies. OSS/FS alternatives complicate an already complex
   information goods market plagued by piracy concerns. Although producer
   perspectives on software pricing and piracy controls have been addressed
   extensively, consumers' perspective and willingness to pay for
   commercial software is not very well understood. This paper empirically
   determines willingness to pay for a leading commercial software
   application (Microsoft Office) in the presence of an OSS/FS alternative.
   A contingent valuation approach is used to elicit willingness to pay for
   the application. The research design employs a 2 x 2 x 2 experiment to
   investigate the impact of preventive control, deterrence control, and
   OSS/FS alternative. The results indicate that the availability of an
   OSS/FS alternative has little impact on willingness to pay for Microsoft
   Office. However, piracy controls significantly increase willingness to
   pay for Microsoft Office, even in the presence of OSS/FS alternatives.},

Volume = {23},

Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Open-source software development is the next stage in the evolution of
   product development, particularly software products. Compared with the
   prevailing proprietary approaches, open-source software products are
   developed by co-opting external developers and prospective users.
   Although a core group of developers might still play a key role in the
   initial design and development, a notable aspect of the open-source
   software paradigm is the role of peripheral developers in the
   enhancement and popularization of the product. Peripheral developers are
   not formal members of the core development team. They voluntarily
   contribute their time and creative talent in improving the quality of
   the product or in popularizing the product through word-of-mouth
   advocacy. As volunteers, they are not subject to the traditional
   hierarchical controls, nor are they contractually obligated. Peripheral
   developers represent a novel and unique aspect of open-source software
   development, and there is a greater interest in tapping their potential.
   However, there has been limited evidence about how and when their
   participation has beneficial impacts. We examine how peripheral
   developers contribute to product quality and diffusion by utilizing
   longitudinal data on 147 open-source software products. Hierarchical
   linear modeling analysis indicates that peripheral developers make
   significant contributions to product quality and diffusion, especially
   on projects that are in the more mature stages of product development.},

Abstract = {Open source software is becoming increasingly prominent, and the
   economic structure of open-source development is changing. In recent
   years, firms motivated by revenues from software services markets have
   become the primary contributors to open-source development. In this
   paper we study the role of services in open source software development
   and explore the choice between open source and proprietary software.
   Specifically, our economic model jointly analyzes the investment and
   pricing decisions of the originators of software and of subsequent
   open-source contributors.
   We find that if a contributor is efficient in software development, the
   originator should adopt an open-source strategy, allowing the
   contributor to offer higher total quality and capture the higher end of
   the market while the originator focuses on providing software services
   to lower end consumers. Conversely, if the contributor is not efficient
   in development, the originator should adopt a proprietary software
   development strategy, gaining revenue from software sales and squeezing
   the contributor out of the services market. In certain cases an increase
   in originator development efficiency can result in increased contributor
   profits. Finally, we find that, somewhat counterintuitively, an increase
   in contributor development efficiency can reduce overall social welfare.},

Abstract = {Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) is an emerging software engineering
   methodology, which has been used to assist in the removal of
   crosscutting concerns from traditional methods of software development.
   As an example, software used to determine whether a user has appropriate
   security clearance might be scattered throughout the many modules, which
   require this check. Utilising AOP, ``aspects{''} are ``woven{''} into
   the software either in a ``static{''} method, during compilation, or a
   ``dynamic{''} method while the program is executing. The ``join
   points{''} in a program are the points where these aspects are applied.
   The ``aspect{''} code is written once and ``woven{''} in to the modules
   at join points. Typical aspects involve logging changes to a database
   and monitoring memory usage. Our focus is on aspects related to security
   and intrusion incident detection.
   Dynamic weaving allows aspects to be woven in and out as the program is
   executing. However the base code often must be compiled with additional
   ``syntactic sugar{''} - additions that are required for the later
   connection of dynamic aspects. This paper presents a new technique to
   enable dynamically loaded security modules to be added into existing
   C/C++ code on the fly while the program is executing. Our tool is a
   Run-Time Event Monitoring System called ``dynamicHook{''}, implemented
   on a standard Linux platform using existing Linux tools, which tests
   each potential join point for the required activation of advice. Our
   system does not need to modify the executable files, but instead we
   compile in special ``linkage{''} between the base code and potential
   aspects which are then called as dynamically linked routines located in
   shared libraries. Our scheme does not require any new syntax or language
   extensions or rely on code transformations; we thus use it for adding
   intrusion detection methodologies to pre-existing off-the-shelf open
   source software.},

Abstract = {Advances in craniofacial medical imaging has allowed the 3D
   reconstruction of anatomical structures for medical applications,
   including the design of patient specific implants based on
   computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM)

   complex medical data through generation of 3-dimensional (3D) physical
   models via additive manufacturing that can be eventually utilised to

   management. Although the study on the construction of
   cranio-maxillofacial implant based on computer modelling and advanced
   biomaterial are growing rapidly from other parts of the world, however,
   in Malaysia is scanty, especially with open source application. For this
   reason, it leads us to embark in a study to produce a potential locally
   cranio-maxillofacial implant with equivalent standard as compared to the
   commercially available product applying open source software. As part of
   four subprojects of USM Research University Team (RUT) project, the

   image processing of CT data, to segment the region of interest of
   anatomical structures, to create virtual 3D models, and finally to
   convert the virtual 3D models to a format that compatible for additive

Title = {Online innovation: the case of open source software development},
Journal = {EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INNOVATION MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2008},
Volume = {11},
Number = {1},
Pages = {142+},
Abstract = {Purpose - The aim of this paper is to investigate the role of online
   networking during the innovation process, including its role(s) in
   communication, cooperation and coordination. The paper neither
   implicitly assumes that online computer-based networking is a
   prerequisite for the innovation process nor denies the possibility that
   innovation can emerge and successfully survive without it. It merely
   presupposes that, in cases of innovation where information and
   communication technologies play a substantial role, non-proprietarity
   may offer an interesting alternative to innovations based on proprietary
   knowledge.
   Design/methodology/approach - The paper borrows from the theory of
   communities-of-practice, which takes into account social relations,
   contacts, and the transfer and incorporation of knowledge. Open source
   innovation is not the exclusive preserve of computer nerds, but also has
   implications for existing software manufacturers. The paper therefore
   includes the case of IBM, a company which has successfully integrated
   this new and more open way of collaboration into its business model.
   Findings - The paper concludes that online computer-based innovation
   fundamentally challenges current ways of communicating, cooperating and
   coordinating during the innovation and product development process.
   Moreover, it challenges the traditional business model in that it forces
   the actors involved to shift the focus from the innovation itself to the
   identification of new supporting services higher up the value chain.
   Last, but not least, it blurs the boundary between development and use,
   since the developer remains the key user.
   Research limitations/implications - The paper addresses the implications
   for future research in the area. Practical implications - The paper
   addresses implications for practitioners directly involved in innovation
   and product development.
   Originality/value - This paper develops a conceptual framework for
   understanding product development based on non-proprietary knowledge,
   which cannot be adequately accounted for by traditional corporate
   innovation theory alone.},

   around technically talented developers, whose communication is based on

   human-computer interaction (HCI) specialists have encountered
   difficulties in trying to participate in OSS projects, because there
   seems to be no clear authority and responsibility for them. In this
   paper, based on HCI and OSS literature, we introduce an extended OSS
   development project organization model that adds a new level of
   communication and roles for attending human aspects of software. The
   proposed model makes the existence of HCI specialists visible in the
   projects, and promotes interaction between developers and the HCI
   specialists in the course of a project.},

Journal = {EVALUATION AND PROGRAM PLANNING},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {60},
Pages = {284-292},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Planning and evaluating projects often involves input from many
   stakeholders. Fusing and organizing many different ideas, opinions, and
   interpretations into a coherent and acceptable plan or project
   evaluation is challenging. This is especially true when seeking
   contributions from a large number of participants, especially when not
   all can participate in group discussions, or when some prefer to
   contribute their perspectives anonymously. One of the major
   breakthroughs in the area of evaluation and program planning has been
   the use of graphical tools to represent the brainstorming process. This
   provides a quantitative framework for organizing ideas and general
   concepts into simple-to-interpret graphs. We developed a new,
   open-source concept mapping software called R-CMap, which is implemented
   in R. This software provides a graphical user interface to guide users
   through the analytical process of concept mapping. The R-CMap software
   allows users to generate a variety of plots, including cluster maps,
   point rating and cluster rating maps, as well as pattern matching and
   go-zone plots. Additionally, R-CMap is capable of generating detailed
   reports that contain useful statistical summaries of the data. The plots
   and reports can be embedded in Microsoft Office tools such as Word and
   PowerPoint, where users may manually adjust various plot and table
   features to achieve the best visual results in their presentations and
   official reports. The graphical user interface of R-CMap allows users to
   define cluster names, `change the number of clusters, select rating
   variables for relevant plots, and importantly, select subsets of
   respondents by demographic criteria. The latter is particularly useful
   to project managers in order to identify different patterns of
   preferences by subpopulations. R-CMap is user-friendly, and does not
   require any programming experience. However, proficient R users can add
   to its functionality by directly accessing built-in functions in R and
   sharing new features with the concept mapping community. (C) 2016

Abstract = {5G has gradually been commercialized in countries around the world, but
   for most telecom companies, network slicing is still in the development
   stage and has not been applied to appropriate scenarios. Automated
   provisioning of network slicing is even more challenging for
   development. The purpose of this research is to implement a complete,
   open source, and automatically deployable 5G network slicing
   architecture. We use OpenStack as the platform required to realize
   virtualization, Tacker module for slicing environment deployment,
   free5GC as the core network of the 5G system, and UERANSIM as the role
   of simulating UE and gNB. Through the proposed architecture, an
   automatic slicing service with specific functions can be created, the
   slice can be registered into the 5G network with the support of the core
   network, and the simulated UE can be used to connect the related slice.
   Experimental results show that the proposed open-source-based
   architecture is feasible and the QoS is guaranteed for each slice.},

   re-acquirement of lost knowledge types. There are many open questions,
   such as what are best practices and guidelines to retain knowledge lost

   of my research will be to provide an understanding of what type of
   knowledge is lost and its impact on the productivity of the contributor.
   Best practices and guidelines will also be contributed to retain

Abstract = {After decades of waiting, computational chemistry for the masses is
   finally here. Our brief review on free and open source software (FOSS)
   packages points out the existence of software offering a wide range of
   functionality, all the way from approximate semiempirical calculations
   with tight-binding density functional theory to sophisticated ab initio
   wave function methods such as coupled-cluster theory, covering both
   molecular and solid-state systems. Combined with the remarkable increase
   in the computing power of personal devices, which now rivals that of the
   fastest supercomputers in the world in the 1990s, we demonstrate that a
   decentralized model for teaching computational chemistry is now possible
   thanks to FOSS packages, enabling students to perform reasonable
   modeling on their own computing devices in the bring your own device
   (BYOD) scheme. FOSS software can be made trivially simple to install and
   keep up to date, eliminating the need for departmental support, and also
   enables comprehensive teaching strategies, as various algorithms' actual
   implementations can be used in teaching. We exemplify what kinds of
   calculations are feasible with four FOSS electronic structure programs,
   assuming only extremely modest computational resources, to illustrate
   how FOSS packages enable decentralized approaches to computational
   chemistry education within the BYOD scheme. FOSS also has further
   benefits driving its adoption: the open access to the source code of
   FOSS packages democratizes the science of computational chemistry, and
   FOSS packages can be used without limitation also beyond education, in
   academic and industrial applications, for example. This article is

Journal = {SOFTWARE QUALITY JOURNAL},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {32},
Number = {2},
Pages = {487-541},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {In recent years, open-source software (OSS) has attracted increasing
   attention due to its easy accessibility via cloud repositories,
   voluntary community, no vendor lock-in, and low total cost of ownership.
   In turn, specifying and evaluating OSS quality has become a significant
   challenge for OSS adoption in organizations that are inclined to use
   them. Although many OSS quality models have been proposed in the
   literature, the dynamic and diverse nature of OSS has caused these
   models to be heterogeneous in terms of structure and content. This has
   adversely affected the standardization of evaluations and led to the
   evaluation results obtained from different OSS quality models for the
   same purpose being incomparable and sometimes unreliable. Therefore, in
   this study, a meta-model for OSS quality (OSS-QMM), which employs a
   unified structure from existing quality models and enables the
   derivation of homogeneous models, has been proposed. For this purpose, a
   systematic and laborious effort has been spent via a step-based
   meta-model creation process including review-and-revise iterations. In
   order to validate the OSS-QMM, case study and expert opinion methods
   have been applied to answer three research questions (RQs) targeted to
   investigate practical applicability, results comparability, and
   effectiveness of using the meta-model. Multiple and embedded case study
   designs have been employed for evaluating three real ERP systems, and 20
   subject matter experts have been interviewed during the validation
   process. The results of multi-faceted empirical studies have indicated
   that the OSS-QMM has addressed solving problems in OSS quality
   evaluation and its adoption with high degrees of confidence.},

Pages = {89-104},
Abstract = {Open-source software project mailing lists are key communication
   platforms which support collaboration and coordination between various
   stakeholders such as managers, developers, and users during the various
   stages of a software development process, namely, software analysis,
   design, -implementation, and testing. A virtual social network is
   therefore formed through a mailing list, in which, each subscriber could
   be a node of the network, and the communications (email messages) could
   be the links of the network. Due to the virtual property of this
   network, physical (geographical) distance between network nodes is
   usually considered irrelevant. Instead, what is more important is the
   conceptual distance that captures the key properties of this virtual
   network. This paper studies the open-source software developer network.
   Two types representation of the conceptual distance, message reply
   distance and common keyword distance, are defined. Appling these two
   types of conceptual distances, the mailing list of Linux kernel project
   is mined and virtual networks are constructed and analyzed. The
   evolution of Linux Kernel Mailing List social network is studied, where
   Mantel test is used to study the similarities and correlations between
   social networks. The study shows that in open-source software projects,
   (1) conceptual distances could be the key components in constructing the
   workspace of the developer network, and (2) Mantel test could be a
   powerful tool in studying the network.},

Abstract = {Background: Mass spectrometry is an essential analytical technique for
   high-throughput analysis in proteomics and metabolomics. The development
   of new separation techniques, precise mass analyzers and experimental
   protocols is a very active field of research. This leads to more complex
   experimental setups yielding ever increasing amounts of data.
   Consequently, analysis of the data is currently often the bottleneck for
   experimental studies. Although software tools for many data analysis
   tasks are available today, they are often hard to combine with each
   other or not flexible enough to allow for rapid prototyping of a new
   analysis workflow.
   Results: We present OpenMS, a software framework for rapid application
   development in mass spectrometry. OpenMS has been designed to be
   portable, easy-to-use and robust while offering a rich functionality
   ranging from basic data structures to sophisticated algorithms for data

Abstract = {In the photogrammetric process of the 3D reconstruction of an object or
   a building, multi-image orientation is one of the most important tasks
   that often include simultaneous camera calibration. The accuracy of
   image orientation and camera calibration significantly affects the
   quality and accuracy of all subsequent photogrammetric processes, such
   as determining the spatial coordinates of individual points or 3D
   modeling. In the context of artificial vision, the full-field analysis
   procedure is used, which leads to the so-called Strcture from Motion
   (SfM), which includes the simultaneous determination of the camera's
   internal and external orientation parameters and the 3D model. The
   procedures were designed and developed by means of a photogrammetric
   system, but the greatest development and innovation of these procedures
   originated from the computer vision from the late 90s, together with the
   SfM method. The reconstructions on this method have been useful for
   visualization purposes and not for photogrammetry and mapping. Thanks to
   advances in computer technology and computer performance, a large number
   of images can be automatically oriented in a coordinate system
   arbitrarily defined by different algorithms, often available in open
   source software (VisualSFM, Bundler, PMVS2, CMVS, etc.) or in the form
   of Web services (Microsoft Photosynth, Autodesk 123D Catch, My3DScanner,
   etc.). However, it is important to obtain an assessment of the accuracy
   and reliability of these automated procedures. This paper presents the
   results obtained from the dome low close range photogrammetric surveys
   and processed with some open source software using the Structure from
   Motion approach: VisualSfM, OpenDroneMap (ODM) and Regard3D.
   Photogrammetric surveys have also been processed with the Photoscan
   commercial software by Agisoft.
   For the photogrammetric survey we used the digital camera Canon EOS M3
   (24.2 Megapixel, pixel size 3.72 mm). We also surveyed the dome with the
   Faro Focus 3D TLS. Only one scan was carried out, from ground level, at
   a resolution setting of 1/4 with 3x quality, corresponding to a
   resolution of 7 mm / 10 m. Both TLS point cloud and Photoscan point
   cloud were used as a reference to validate the point clouds coming from
   VisualSFM, OpenDroneMap and Regards3D. The validation was done using the
   Cloud Compare open source software.},

Abstract = {Software reuse is a popular practice, which is constantly gaining ground
   among practitioners. The main reason for this is the potential that it
   provides for reducing development effort and increasing the end-product
   quality. At the same time, Open-Source Software (OSS) repositories are
   nowadays flourishing and can facilitate the reuse process, through the
   provision of a variety of software artifacts. However, up-to-date OSS
   reuse processes have mostly been opportunistic, leading to not fully
   capitalizing existing reuse potentials. In this study we propose a
   process (namely REACT) for improving planned OSS reuse practices, i.e.,
   we define the activities that a software engineer can perform to reuse
   OSS artifacts. To illustrate the applicability of REACT, we provide an
   example, in which a mobile application is developed based upon the reuse
   of OSS artifacts. To validate the proposed process we compared the
   effort required to develop the application with and without adapting
   REACT process. Our preliminary results suggest that REACT may reduce up
   to 50\% the effort required to build an application from scratch.},

Abstract = {In open source software (OSS) communities, volunteers collaborate and

   Development of qualified and secured software products relies mainly on
   the ability of OSS participants to acquire, refine and use new aspects
   of secure programming knowledge. Many OSS proponents believe that the
   open source innovation offers significant learning opportunities from
   its best practices. However, studies that specifically explore learning
   of software security in the context of open source development are
   scarce. This paper aims to empirically assess present knowledge sharing
   and learning about secure programming knowledge in the context of OSS
   communities utilized a socio-technical approach on OSS projects based on
   an ethnographic observation. Our motivation is not only to evaluate the
   knowledge sharing and learning mechanisms and the extent to which they

Abstract = {Consumer electronics are becoming more feature rich. Embedded system
   developers use design and testing tools to make their products faster.
   However, tool improvements have not kept pace with the rapid development
   of customized hardware parts. The simulation of target system or virtual

   work without having to wait for the physical hardware to be available.
   In this work, we designed and implemented a virtual development
   environment for embedded software (VDEES). This environment provides the
   tools to build a virtual platform according to a given target hardware
   specification and to develop software to run oil the target hardware
   with the virtual platform. VDEES is implemented at low cost by
   exploiting open source software pack-ages and extended or customized
   them to meet our requirements. VDEES provides a configuration tool for
   composing a virtual target, a code editor for writing simulated
   components, software to be run oil the tat-get, building tools for
   binary images, a debugger for investigation of the software running oil
   the virtual target, and a system monitor for the investigation of the

Abstract = {Since the 2001 anthrax attack in the United States, awareness of threats
   originating from bioterrorism has grown. This led internationally to
   increased research efforts to improve knowledge of and approaches to
   protecting human and animal populations against the threat from such
   attacks. A collaborative effort in this context is the extension of the
   open-source Spatiotemporal Epidemiological Modeler (STEM) simulation and
   modeling software for agro- or bioterrorist crisis scenarios. STEM,
   originally designed to enable community-driven public health disease
   models and simulations, was extended with new features that enable
   integration of proprietary data as well as visualization of agent spread
   along supply and production chains. STEM now provides a fully developed
   open-source software infrastructure supporting critical modeling tasks
   such as ad hoc model generation, parameter estimation, simulation of
   scenario evolution, estimation of effects of mitigation or management
   measures, and documentation. This open-source software resource can be
   used free of charge. Additionally, STEM provides critical features like
   built-in worldwide data on administrative boundaries, transportation
   networks, or environmental conditions (eg, rainfall, temperature,
   elevation, vegetation). Users can easily combine their own confidential
   data with built-in public data to create customized models of desired
   resolution. STEM also supports collaborative and joint efforts in crisis
   situations by extended import and export functionalities. In this
   article we demonstrate specifically those new software features
   implemented to accomplish STEM application in agro- or bioterrorist

Abstract = {Previous research has shown that the open source movement shares a

   advocate the use of open source software within their organization.
   Hence, their belief in the underlying open source software ideology may
   influence the decision making on the adoption of open source software.
   This may result in an ideological-rather than pragmatic-decision. A
   recent study has shown that American organizations are quite pragmatic
   in their adoption decision. We argue that there may be circumstances in
   which there is more opportunity for ideological behavior. We therefore
   investigated the organizational adoption decision in Belgian
   organizations. Our results indicate that most organizations are

Abstract = {Our research aims at understanding the various forms of participation in
   Open Source Software (OSS) design, seen as distributed design in online
   spaces of actions-discussion, implementation, and boundary between these
   spaces. We propose a methodology-based on situated analyses of a formal
   design process used in the Python project-to identify the distribution
   of actual roles (implementation, interactive, group, and design
   oriented) performed by participants into and between the spaces
   (defining boundary spaces). This notion of roles is grounded in
   collaborative design activities performed online by participants. This
   way, our findings complete the core-periphery model of participation in
   OSS. Concerning the distribution of roles between spaces, we reveal a
   map of participation in OSS: The majority of participants are pure
   discussants, but all participants in the implementation spaces do also
   act in the discussion space, and few participants act at boundary
   spaces. Concerning the distribution of roles between participants in the
   discussion space, we reveal that interactions are structured by a
   central hub (occupied by key participants) and that, whereas
   design-oriented roles are spread among all participants, group-oriented
   roles are performed by one or two participants in the respective spaces
   and at their boundary. Finally, combination of roles reveals five
   individual profiles performed by participants. Our approach could be
   extended to other design situations to explore relationships between
   forms of participation-in particular, those revealing use-oriented
   contributions-performance, and quality of the design product. Finally,
   it could be a basis for specifying tools to monitor and manage community
   activity for both research issues and support of online community.},

Journal = {PLOS COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {17},
Number = {5},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {In this work, we describe the CRIMSON (CardiovasculaR Integrated
   Modelling and SimulatiON) software environment. CRIMSON provides a
   powerful, customizable and user-friendly system for performing
   three-dimensional and reduced-order computational haemodynamics studies
   via a pipeline which involves: 1) segmenting vascular structures from
   medical images; 2) constructing analytic arterial and venous geometric
   models; 3) performing finite element mesh generation; 4) designing, and
   5) applying boundary conditions; 6) running incompressible Navier-Stokes
   simulations of blood flow with fluid-structure interaction capabilities;
   and 7) post-processing and visualizing the results, including velocity,
   pressure and wall shear stress fields. A key aim of CRIMSON is to create
   a software environment that makes powerful computational haemodynamics
   tools accessible to a wide audience, including clinicians and students,
   both within our research laboratories and throughout the community. The
   overall philosophy is to leverage best-in-class open source standards
   for medical image processing, parallel flow computation, geometric solid
   modelling, data assimilation, and mesh generation. It is actively used
   by researchers in Europe, North and South America, Asia, and Australia.
   It has been applied to numerous clinical problems; we illustrate
   applications of CRIMSON to real-world problems using examples ranging
   from pre-operative surgical planning to medical device design
   optimization.
   Author summary We provide the first full presentation in the literature
   of CRIMSON, the Cardiovascular Integrated Modelling and Simulation
   Package. CRIMSON consists of a graphical user interface desktop computer
   program for creating geometric models of blood vessels from medical
   imaging scans, specifying parameters such as the stiffness of the artery
   walls, the resistance of connected vessels which are not visible on the
   scans, and determining the appropriate parameters for all aspects of the
   model. CRIMSON additionally consists of the Flowsolver, a
   high-performance computing package which simulates the flow of blood
   through the models created in the graphical user interface. Whilst
   several packages which can simulate blood flow exist, most target
   general fluid simulations, and this lack of specialisation means that
   blood flow simulation is harder to perform, and can require ad hoc (and
   potentially scientifically-limiting) workflow decisions. CRIMSON's
   specialisation deals with these problems, as well as presenting a number
   of unique features which are unavailable elsewhere.},

Abstract = {This paper deals with the relationships between firms and communities in
   open source software (OSS). A particular feature of OSS is that
   important resources are not directly controlled by firms, but partly
   reside within communities that co-exist with the firms. Despite this,
   firms explicitly try to utilize the resources within these communities
   in order to create and appropriate value. Consequently, the
   relationships that firms have to these communities influence their way
   of doing business. Based on case studies of Nordic OSS firms, a typology
   consisting of symbiotic, commensalistic, and parasitic approaches to
   handle the firm-community relationship is developed. Depending on the
   chosen approach, firms encounter different managerial issues and also
   use different operational means of subtle control. While firms relying
   on a symbiotic approach have greater possibility to influence the
   community through subtle means of control, they are also confronted with
   more challenging managerial issues. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights

Abstract = {There have been many studies in the literature discussing intra- and
   inter-cluster ties within sociological systems denoted by strong and
   weak ties, social and biological systems represented by community
   structure, and organizational systems signified by strong and loose
   couplings; where inter-cluster ties are mostly considered weak or loose.
   Loose couplings lead to dissemination or retrieval of information,
   spread of viruses, new product adoption, more and their prediction is
   significant for knowledge management, organizational innovation,
   epidemics of contagious diseases, and viral product design. Therefore in
   this paper, we investigate how to predict inter-cluster tie strength,
   and propose that inter-cluster tie strength can be predicted from
   determination of intra-cluster density. In the model design section, we
   provide the hypothesis and discuss logical and analytical reasoning; in
   the empirical section, we alternatively examine the relationship between
   intra-group density and inter-group tie strength via examining
   open-source-software (OSS) project collaboration data collected from
   SourceForge repository.},

Year = {2007},
Volume = {97},
Number = {2},

Abstract = {Cybercrime-crime committed through the use of a computer-is a real and
   growing problem that costs governments, businesses, and individual
   computer users millions of dollars annually and that facilitates many of
   the same crimes committed in realspace, such as identity theft and the
   trafficking of child pornography, only on a larger scale. However, the
   current strategies deployed by law enforcement to combat cybercrime have
   proven ineffective. Borne out of traditional notions of criminal
   behavior, these strategies and tactics are often ill-suited to prevent
   or punish cybercrime, which often defies the traditional notions of
   criminal behavior bounded by the corporeal world such as scale and
   proximity. This Comment argues that a more effective methodology in the
   fight against cybercrime is to develop a model of community policing, in
   which the power to deter and prevent cybercrime is divested into the
   hands of individual computer users. One such strategy for achieving
   effective community policing against cybercrime is through the increased
   use of open-source soft-ware, software in which users are given access
   to the underlying source code and may make modifications to that source
   code in order to ameliorate vulnerabilities that may enable cybercrime.
   This Comment looks at the development of traditional community policing
   strategies and argues that the increased use of open source
   software-spurned by greater involvement by government and
   corporations-may be a more effective technique in the fight against
   cybercrime.},

Abstract = {OpenSeismoMatlab is an innovative open-source software for strong ground
   motion data processing, written in MATLAB. The software implements an
   elastoplastic bilinear kinematic hardening constitutive model and uses a
   state-of-the-art single step single solve time integration algorithm
   featuring exceptional speed, robustness and accuracy. OpenSeismoMatlab
   can calculate various time histories and corresponding peak values,
   Arias intensity and its time history, significant duration, various
   linear elastic response spectra and constant ductility inelastic
   response spectra, as well as Fourier amplitude spectrum and mean period.
   Due to its open-source nature, the software can be easily extended or
   modified, having high research and educational value for the
   professional engineering and research community. In the present paper,
   the structure, algorithms and main routines of the program are explained
   in detail and the results for various types of spectra of 11 earthquake
   strong ground motions are calculated and compared to corresponding

Abstract = {The search for efficient business models for open source software is a
   hot topic both for software vendors and for customers and users of

   procurement of public e-services has been followed in seven case
   studies, of which one was studied in-depth and is accounted for in
   detail in this paper. The results are that municipalities' investments
   in e-services are important both concerning function and long-term cost
   of ownership. Open source software, OSS, can be ail alternative, but in
   the studied procurement cases it appeared not to be a realistic choice
   in practise. This paper investigates why, and the conclusions are
   presented as general results. The authors also suggest ail alternative
   business model referred to as Sambruk Community Licence, ie a semi-open
   source software business model for local governments.},

Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},

Volume = {11},
Pages = {112248-112262},
Abstract = {Scheduling and resource allocation for Open Source Software (OSS)
   product development pose crucial and challenging tasks due to program
   size and resource limitations. The properties of OSS further complicate
   product assessment and maintenance for developers. This paper proposes a
   model for the iterative and multi-release OSS development process.
   Unlike traditional methods that oversimplify the problem by reducing the
   multi-decision space into a single-objective optimization problem, our
   approach suggests employing Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithms
   (MOEAs) to solve the Optimal Release Time Planning Problem, enabling the
   simultaneous maximization of reliability and minimization of cost. We
   consider testing cost and system reliability, two critical dimensions,
   as the primary objectives, while also incorporating testing resource
   consumption as the third objective. The Non-dominated Sorting Genetic
   Algorithm II (NSGA-II) is chosen as the primary method for its
   effectiveness in MOEAs, with a special scenario outlined in the paper
   where NSGA-II may not guarantee optimal solutions. Demonstrating the
   practicality of our proposed method, we utilize open source data to
   assess release time and illustrate its superiority to NSGA-II. Numerical
   examples further showcase the model's effectiveness.},

   source software projects},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF STRATEGIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {30},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {A better understanding of the key to successful open-source software
   (OSS) development continues to motivate research. Aligned with work that
   builds on the notion that an OSS development is tightly interrelated
   with its social environment (i.e., the OSS community), this study
   examines the relationship between interproject structure and OSS project
   success. OSS project success is reflected in two forms: popularity and
   knowledge creation. Extending the extant OSS literature, we theorize a
   contingent role of interproject connectedness. In particular, we posit
   three points: (1) an OSS project with more structural holes achieves
   higher popularity; (2) an OSS project with fewer structural holes yields
   higher knowledge creation; and (3) these two relationships are enhanced
   by an increase in project maturity. Using a dataset longitudinally
   collected from SourceForge.net, we found that OSS projects with
   widespread connectedness are more popular. This is especially so for
   those OSS projects in the mid-mature stage. We also found that OSS
   projects with a cohesive network achieve higher knowledge creation,
   irrespective of their maturity. Findings from our study can contribute
   to OSS literature by identifying OSS projects that are more likely to be
   successful.},

Abstract = {Adaptive quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) approaches are
   able to treat systems with dynamic or nonlocalized active centers by
   allowing for on-the-fly reassignment of the QM region. Although these

   current software has caused slow adoption and limited applications.
   JANUS seeks to remedy the limitations of current software by providing a
   free and open-source Python library for adaptive methods that is modular
   and extensible. Our software has implementations of many existing
   adaptive methods and a user-friendly input structure that removes the
   hindrance of complicated setup procedures. A Python API is made
   available to customize JANUS's capabilities and implement novel adaptive
   approaches. JANUS currently interfaces with PSI4 and OPENMM, but its
   modular infrastructure enables easy extensibility to other molecular
   codes without major modifications to either code. The software is freely
   available at https://github.com/CCQC/janus. Our goal is that JANUS will
   serve as a user-driven platform for adaptive QM/MM methods.},

Title = {The Evolving Role of Open Source Software in Medicine and Health
   Services},
Journal = {TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION MANAGEMENT REVIEW},
Year = {2013},
Pages = {32-39},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {The past five decades have witnessed immense coevolution of methods and
   tools of information technology, and their practical and experimental
   application within the medical and healthcare domain. Healthcare itself
   continues to evolve in response to change in healthcare needs, progress
   in the scientific foundations of treatments, and in professional and
   managerial organization of affordable and effective services, in which
   patients and their families and carers increasingly participate.
   Taken together, these trends impose highly complex underlying challenges
   for the design, development, and sustainability of the quality of
   supporting information services and software infrastructure that are
   needed. The challenges are multidisciplinary and multiprofessional in
   scope, and they require deeper study and learning to inform policy and
   promote public awareness of the problems health services have faced in
   this area for many years. The repeating pattern of failure to live up to
   expectations of policy-driven national health IT initiatives has proved
   very costly and remains frustrating and unproductive for all involved.
   In this article, we highlight the barriers to progress and discuss the
   dangers of pursuing a standardization framework devoid of empirical
   testing and iterative development. We give the example of the openEHR
   Foundation, which was established at University College London (UCL) in
   London, England, with members in 80 countries. The Foundation is a
   not-forprofit company providing open specifications and working for
   generic standards for electronic records, informed directly by a wide
   range of implementation experience. We also introduce the Opereffa open
   source framework, which was developed at UCL based on these
   specifications and which has been downloaded in some 70 countries. We
   argue that such an approach is now essential to support good discipline,
   innovation, and governance at the heart of medicine and health services,
   in line with the new mandate for health commissioning in the United
   Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS), which emphasizes patient
   participation, innovation, transparency, and accountability.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {23},
Number = {1},
Pages = {165-195},
Abstract = {The success of open source software (OSS) projects depends on sustained
   contributions by developers who often display a wide variety of
   contribution patterns. Project leaders and stakeholders would strongly
   prefer that developers not only maintain but preferably increase their
   contributions over time as they gain experience. Corporations
   increasingly complement OSS developer motivations (such as fit in terms
   of shared values with the project community) by paying them to sustain
   contributions. However, practitioners argue whether payment helps or
   hurts projects because monetary compensation may dampen developer
   motivation in the long run, making it difficult for project leaders to
   understand what to expect from developers over time. Using Herzberg's
   motivation-hygiene framework, we explore how developers' perceptions of
   value fit with the project and being paid interact to determine the
   level of code contribution and its rate of change over time (i.e.,
   growth). Using a survey of 564 developers across 431 projects on GitHub,
   we build a three-level growth model explaining the code contribution and
   its growth over a six-month period. We find that value fit with the
   project positively influences both the level and growth of code
   contribution. However, there are notable differences among paid and
   unpaid developers in the impact of value fit on their level and growth
   in code contributions over time. The implications of our work will be of
   interest to researchers, practitioners, and organizations investing in
   open source projects.},

Journal = {ACM TRANSACTIONS ON MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS},
Year = {2014},

Number = {1},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {The use of free and Open-Source Software (OSS) systems is gaining
   momentum. Organizations are also now adopting OSS, despite some
   reservations, particularly about the quality issues. Stability of
   software is one of the main features in software quality management that
   needs to be understood and accurately predicted. It deals with the
   impact resulting from software changes and argues that stable components
   lead to a cost-effective software evolution. Changes are most common
   phenomena present in OSS in comparison to proprietary software. This
   makes OSS system evolution a rich context to study and predict
   stability. Our objective in this work is to build stability prediction
   models that are not only accurate but also interpretable, that is, able
   to explain the link between the architectural aspects of a software
   component and its stability behavior in the context of OSS. Therefore,
   we propose a new approach based on classifiers combination capable of
   preserving prediction interpretability. Our approach is
   classifier-structure dependent. Therefore, we propose a particular
   solution for combining Bayesian classifiers in order to derive a more
   accurate composite classifier that preserves interpretability. This
   solution is implemented using a genetic algorithm and applied in the
   context of an OSS large-scale system, namely the standard Java API. The
   empirical results show that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art
   approaches from both machine learning and software engineering.},

   that: (i) Users play indeed a predominant role in communication, which
   points towards the vivid role of an active user community; (ii)
   communication is highly concentrated, which points towards the
   importance of active individuals and (iii) community turnover exhibits
   only little correlation with community segregation, which may allow to

   this area. The framework describes four main areas of investigation: the
   creation of OSS user communities, their characteristics, their
   contributions and how they change. For each area of the framework, we
   suggest several research questions that deserve attention.},

Abstract = {We present an agent-based simulation model of open source software
   (OSS). To our knowledge, this is the first model of OSS evolution that
   includes four significant factors: productivity limited by the
   complexity of software modules, the software's fitness for purpose, the
   motivation of developers, and the role of users in defining
   requirements. The model was evaluated by comparing the simulated results
   against four measures of software evolution (system size, proportion of
   highly complex modules, level of complexity control work, and
   distribution of changes) for four large OSS systems. The simulated
   results resembled all the observed data, including alternating periods
   of growth and stagnation. The fidelity of the model suggests that the
   factors included here have significant effects on the evolution of OSS
   systems.},

Abstract = {In an open source software (OSS) development community supported by
   spontaneous volunteers, personal interests, technical capabilities,
   hunger for fame, and the satisfaction of contributing to the public good
   are said to be motivating factor for participation. In that community,
   companies always play auxiliary roles, and integrate the result of OSS
   into their business activities.
   However, in the Eclipse open source software community, the main role of
   OSS development activities is taken over by companies. The relationship
   between individuals and companies is reversed. Therefore, it becomes
   important to maintain the motivation of the development community,
   promote innovation and link the activities to the profit of a company.
   In other words, management of co-creation and competition are being
   conducted at the same time.
   This paper tries to clarify a structure of co-creation in an OSS
   ecosystem led by companies considering the Eclipse community as one
   particular case. It also constructs a co-creation process model to
   promote sustainable development for an OSS ecosystem following two axes
   1) value sharing and value acquisition, and 2) quantitative development
   and qualitative development. Some mechanisms that drive this process are
   embedded everywhere in the Eclipse ecosystem.},

Abstract = {This research aims at characterizing emerging roles fostering design-use
   mediation during the Open Source Software (OSS) design process through
   the analysis of participation. Studying OSS is of particular interest:
   (1) to investigate socio-technical settings supporting user
   participation to the design process, which is considered to be the major
   strength of OSS design; (2) to gain insights into supporting the
   changing nature of the software industry, which is becoming more and
   more distributed and global, and which is thus increasingly making use
   of OSS design tools and methods. In this research, we characterized
   effective roles of participants, i.e. participation, on the basis of
   activities analysis in three online interaction spaces (discussion,
   documentation and implementation) during a continuous
   ``pushed-by-users{''} design process of the Python project.
   Participation is targeted through a methodology articulating: (1)
   structural analyses (organization of the discussions, regularity and
   involvement of participants, quotes-based social network) in
   usage-oriented and development-oriented mailing lists of the projects'
   discussion space; (2) actions to the code and documentation made by
   participants in the implementation and documentation spaces. Besides the
   importance of the users' contribution to the process, OSS design is
   fostered by some key-participants, the cross-participants, who act as
   boundary spanners between the developers and the users, helping them to
   go beyond some barriers to participation. These findings can be
   reinforced developing software to automate the structural analysis of
   discussions and actions to the code and documentation. (C) 2008 Elsevier

Abstract = {Many open-source software projects depend on a few core developers, who
   take over both the bulk of coordination and programming tasks. They are
   supported by peripheral developers, who contribute either via
   discussions or programming tasks, often for a limited time. It is
   unclear what role these peripheral developers play in the programming
   and communication efforts, as well as the temporary task-related
   sub-groups in the projects. We mine code-repository data and
   mailing-list discussions to model the relationships and contributions of
   developers in a social network and devise a method to analyze the
   temporal collaboration structures in communication and programming,
   learning about the strength and stability of social sub-groups in
   open-source software projects. Our method uses multi-modal social
   networks on a series of time windows. Previous work has reduced the
   network structure representing developer collaboration to networks with
   only one type of interaction, which impedes the simultaneous analysis of
   more than one type of interaction. We use both communication and
   version-control data of open-source software projects and model
   different types of interaction over time. To demonstrate the
   practicability of our measurement and analysis method, we investigate 10
   substantial and popular open-source software projects and show that, if
   sub-groups evolve, modeling these sub-groups helps predict the future
   evolution of interaction levels of programmers and groups of developers.
   Our method allows maintainers and other stakeholders of open-source
   software projects to assess instabilities and organizational changes in
   developer interaction and can be applied to different use cases in
   organizational analysis, such as understanding the dynamics of a
   specific incident or discussion.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software plays an important role in many software
   ecosystems. Whether in operating systems, network stacks, or as
   low-level system drivers, software we encounter daily is permeated with
   code contributions from open source projects. Decentralized development
   and open collaboration in open source projects introduce unique
   challenges: code submissions from unknown entities, limited personpower
   for commit or dependency reviews, and bringing new contributors
   up-to-date in projects' best practices \& processes.
   In 27 in-depth, semi-structured interviews with owners, maintainers, and
   contributors from a diverse set of open source projects, we investigate
   their security and trust practices. For this, we explore projects'
   behind-the-scene processes, provided guidance \& policies, as well as
   incident handling \& encountered challenges. We find that our
   participants' projects are highly diverse both in deployed security
   measures and trust processes, as well as their underlying motivations.
   Based on our findings, we discuss implications for the open source
   software ecosystem and how the research community can better support
   open source projects in trust and security considerations. Overall, we
   argue for supporting open source projects in ways that consider their
   individual strengths and limitations, especially in the case of smaller
   projects with low contributor numbers and limited access to resources.},

   communities. We found that older adults' contributions are driven by
   intrinsic motivation, altruism, and community identification. In older
   adults' most recent contributions, we found that there were more social
   than technical challenges to participation. Interestingly, the majority
   of older adults claimed to have witnessed discrimination towards others
   in FOSS, especially against non-native English speakers and women. This
   stands in contrast to what the general male FOSS developer population
   reports. Participants identified 10 ways that older adults add value to
   FOSS communities. We conclude with guidelines for onboarding older
   adults.},

Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) security has been the focus of the security
   community and practitioners over the past decades. However, the number
   of new vulnerabilities keeps increasing in today's OSS systems. With
   today's increasingly important and complex OSS, lacking software
   security knowledge to handle security vulnerabilities in OSS development
   will result in more breaches that are serious in the future. Learning
   software security is a difficult and challenging task since the domain
   is quite context specific and the real project situation is necessary to
   apply the security concepts within the specific system. Many OSS
   proponents believe that the OSS community offers significant learning
   opportunities from its best practices. However, studies that
   specifically explore security knowledge sharing and learning in OSS
   communities are scarce. This research is intended to fill this gap by
   empirically investigating factors that affect knowledge sharing and
   learning about software security and the relationship among them. A
   conceptual model is proposed that helps to conceptualize the linkage
   between socio-technical practices and software security learning
   processes in OSS communities. A questionnaire and statistical analytical
   techniques were employed to test hypothesized relationships in the model
   to gain a better understanding of this research topic.},

Abstract = {Government 3.0, which builds on openness and transparency, sharing,
   increased communication and collaboration, government reorganization

   as Government 3.0 have been described in detail so far. And there is a
   lack of research on how governments can put in place such systems. This
   study investigates and characterizes an innovative eGovernment project,
   based on Open Source Software (OSS), that could be considered as an
   example of a Government 3.0 project. Therefore, we report from a case
   study of X-Road, an originally Estonian eGovernment project for creating
   a data sharing infrastructure, which today is also used in other
   countries. We present the main characteristics of X-Road from the point
   of view of Government 3.0, how the X-Road project is organized, compare
   its organization to other OSS projects, identify who contributes to the
   project, and point out what challenges are perceived by their
   stakeholders. We conclude offering some reflections on how X-Road and
   other Government 3.0 projects can benefit from OSS.},

Abstract = {A sound Decision-Making (DM) process is key to the successful governance
   of software projects. In many Open Source Softoware Development (OSSD)
   communities, DM processes lie buried amongst vast amounts of publicly
   available data. Hidden within this data lie the rationale for decisions
   that led to the evolution and maintenance of software products. While
   there have been some efforts to extract DM processes from publicly
   available data, the rationale behind `boo' the decisions are made have
   seldom been explored. Extracting the rationale for these decisions can
   facilitate transparency (by making them known), and also promote
   accountability on the part of decision-makers. This work bridges this
   gap by means of a large-scale study that unearths the rationale behind
   decisions from Python development email archives comprising about 1.5
   million mails. This paper makes two main contributions. First. it makes
   a knowledge contribution by unearthing and presenting the rationale
   behind decisions made. Second. it makes a methodological contribution by
   presenting a heuristics-based rationale extraction system called
   Rationale Miner that employs multiple heuristics, and follows a
   data-driven. bottom-up approach to infer the rationale behind specific
   decisions (e.g., whether a new module is implemented based on core
   developer consensus or benevolent dictator's pronouncement). Our
   approach can be applied to extract rationale in other OSSD communities
   that have similar governance structures.},

Title = {Lessons learned from applying social network analysis on an industrial
   Free/Libre/Open Source Software ecosystem},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF INTERNET SERVICES AND APPLICATIONS},
Year = {2015},

Abstract = {Many software projects are no longer done in-house by a single
   organization. Instead, we are in a new age where software is developed
   by a networked community of individuals and organizations, which base
   their relations to each other on mutual interest. Paradoxically, recent
   research suggests that software development can actually be
   jointly-developed by rival firms. For instance, it is known that the
   mobile-device makers Apple and Samsung kept collaborating in open source
   projects while running expensive patent wars in the court. Taking a case
   study approach, we explore how rival firms collaborate in the open
   source arena by employing a multi-method approach that combines
   qualitative analysis of archival data (QA) withmining software
   repositories (MSR) and Social Network Analysis (SNA). While exploring
   collaborative processes within the OpenStack ecosystem, our research
   contributes to Software Engineering research by exploring the role of
   groups, sub-communities and business models within a high-networked open
   source ecosystem. Surprising results point out that competition for the
   same revenue model (i.e., operating conflicting business models) does
   not necessary affect collaboration within the ecosystem. Moreover, while
   detecting the different sub-communities of the OpenStack community, we
   found out that the expected social tendency of developers to work with
   developers from same firm (i.e., homophony) did not hold within the
   OpenStack ecosystem. Furthermore, while addressing a novel, complex and
   unexplored open source case, this research also contributes to the
   management literature in coopetition strategy and high-tech
   entrepreneurship with a rich description on how heterogeneous actors
   within a high-networked ecosystem (involving individuals, startups,
   established firms and public organizations) joint-develop a complex
   infrastructure for big-data in the open source arena.},

Abstract = {This work focuses on the Open Source Software (OSS) topic in education,
   using a leadership and motivational perspective. The purpose of this
   paper is to analyse the teachers' motivation to contribute to OSS
   projects for teaching. A structural equation model (SEM) has been
   defined under the postulates of the Path-Goal leadership theory and
   Motivational Behaviour. This model has tried to explain and predict the
   use of OSS solutions by teachers in an educational context. The findings
   confirm the positive relationships between transactional and
   transformational leaderships with extrinsic and intrinsic motivations.
   Additionally, the findings show the positive relationship between
   extrinsic and intrinsic motivations and the contributions to the OSS
   project in teaching. This research suggests several implications for
   both leaders and members of an OSS project in an educational context.
   First, the contribution of teachers and instructors to the project is
   greater when the motivation is fostered by the leader. Second, this
   study finds that motivating the participants of a project - teachers in
   this case - is highly recommended, in order to reach a successful
   adoption of OSS solutions for education.},

Abstract = {In today's world, the digitalization process is ongoing, if not in all,
   then almost all corners of our society. It has radically changed entire
   business domains like the banking sector with more online self-service
   and fewer physical banking locations, and from renting DVDs in stores to
   online subscription-based streaming, etc. Another fact in today's world
   is a global burning platform to change human activities to more
   environmentally sustainable activities that make it possible for humans
   to enjoy the hospitality of mother earth for many years to come. This
   article is the second of a series of articles investigating the
   potential role of digitalization with open-source software in green
   business modeling innovation. The open-source community is a growing
   community that has proven to deliver significant value to an
   ever-increasing number of organizations and individuals. Therefore, this
   second takes the architectural design proposed in the first article of
   this series and implements a working prototype. Furthermore, as a result
   of this article, we document the prototype process and outcome.},

Title = {A Community Strategy Framework - How to obtain influence on requirements
   in meritocratic open source software communities?},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {112},
Pages = {102-114},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Context: In the Requirements Engineering (RE) process of an Open Source
   Software (OSS) community, an involved firm is a stakeholder among many.
   Conflicting agendas may create miss-alignment with the firm's internal
   requirements strategy. In communities with meritocratic governance or
   with aspects thereof, a firm has the opportunity to affect the RE
   process in line with their own agenda by gaining influence through
   active and symbiotic engagements.
   Objective: The focus of this study has been to identify what aspects
   that firms should consider when they assess their need of influencing
   the RE process in an OSS community, as well as what engagement practices
   that should be considered in order to gain this influence.
   Method: Using a design science approach, 21 interviews with 18 industry
   professionals from 12 different software-intensive firms were conducted
   to explore, design and validate an artifact for the problem context.
   Results: A Community Strategy Framework (CSF) is presented to help firms
   create community strategies that describe if and why they need influence
   on the RE process in a specific (meritocratic) OSS community, and how
   the firm could gain it. The framework consists of aspects and engagement
   practices. The aspects help determine how important an OSS project and
   its community is from business and technical perspectives. A community
   perspective is used when considering the feasibility and potential in
   gaining influence. The engagement practices are intended as a tool-box
   for how a firm can engage with a community in order to build influence
   needed.
   Conclusion: It is concluded from interview-based validation that the
   proposed CSF may provide support for firms in creating and tailoring
   community strategies and help them to focus resources on communities
   that matter and gain the influence needed on their respective RE
   processes.},

Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {56},
Number = {11, SI},
Pages = {1508-1519},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Background: The livelihood of an open source ecosystem is important to
   different ecosystem participants: software developers, end-users,
   investors, and participants want to know whether their ecosystem is
   healthy and performing well. Currently, there exists no working
   operationalization available that can be used to determine the health of
   open source ecosystems. Health is typically looked at from a project
   scope, not from an ecosystem scope.
   Objectives: With such an operationalization, stakeholders can make
   better decisions on whether to invest in an ecosystem: developers can
   select the healthiest ecosystem to join, keystone organizers can
   establish which governance techniques are effective, and end-users can
   select ecosystems that are robust, will live long, and prosper.
   Method: Design research is used to create the health operationalization.
   The evaluation step is done using four ecosystem health projects from
   literature.
   Results: The Open Source Ecosystem Health Operationalization is
   provided, which establishes the health of a complete software ecosystem,
   using the data from collections of open source projects that belong to
   the ecosystem.
   Conclusion: The groundwork is done, by providing a summary of research
   challenges, for more research in ecosystem health. With the
   operationalization in hand, researchers no longer need to start from
   scratch when researching open source ecosystems' health. (C) 2014

Abstract = {Initially, free software communities are characterized by
   self-management, however, they were also influenced by public and
   private organizations that identified potential gains in the use of the
   geographically distributed production model. In this context, this
   research aims to answer the following questions: Do sponsors influence
   the organizational structures of free software communities by promoting
   differences between sponsored and non-sponsored communities? What
   strategies are adopted by the sponsor to influence the organizational
   structure of free software communities? Two constructs are central to
   the study: organizational structure and sponsorship. For this research,
   we adopted case study methodology and three free software communities
   were studied. In the analysis of the results it was evidenced that
   sponsors influence decision making, definition of community key roles,
   and a formalization of norms. In turn, non-sponsored communities were
   characterized by the centralization and informality of the norms. We
   conclude that differences were identified in the organizational
   structure of sponsored and non-sponsored free software communities, and
   this differentiation was influenced by sponsors. In addition, it was
   possible to describe strategies and mechanisms used by sponsors to
   influence the community organizational structure.},

Title = {LBsoft: A parallel open-source software for simulation of colloidal
   systems},
Journal = {COMPUTER PHYSICS COMMUNICATIONS},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {256},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {We present LBsoft, an open-source software developed mainly to simulate
   the hydro-dynamics of colloidal systems based on the concurrent coupling
   between lattice Boltzmann methods for the fluid and discrete particle
   dynamics for the colloids. Such coupling has been developed before, but,
   to the best of our knowledge, no detailed discussion of the programming
   issues to be faced in order to attain efficient implementation on
   parallel architectures, has ever been presented to date. In this paper,
   we describe in detail the underlying multi-scale models, their coupling
   procedure, along side with a description of the relevant input
   variables, to facilitate third-parties usage.
   The code is designed to exploit parallel computing platforms, taking
   advantage also of the recent AVX-512 instruction set. We focus on LBsoft
   structure, functionality, parallel implementation, performance and
   availability, so as to facilitate the access to this computational tool
   to the research community in the field.
   The capabilities of LBsoft are highlighted for a number of prototypical
   case studies, such as pickering emulsions, bicontinuous systems, as well
   as an original study of the coarsening process in confined bijels under
   shear.

Abstract = {The increasing popularity and use of Open Source Software (OSS) has led
   to significant interest from research communities and enterprise
   practitioners, notably in the small business sector where this type of
   software offers particular benefits given the financial and human
   capital constraints faced. However, there has been little focus on
   developing valid frameworks that enable critical evaluation and common
   understanding of factors influencing OSS adoption. This paper seeks to
   address this shortcoming by presenting a theory-grounded framework for
   exploring these factors and explaining their influence on OSS adoption,
   with the context of study being small- to medium-sized Information
   Technology (IT) businesses in the U.K. The framework has implications
   for this type of business and, we will suggest, more widely as a frame
   of reference for understanding, and as tool for evaluating benefits and
   challenges in, OSS adoption. It also offers researchers a structured way
   of investigating adoption issues and a base from which to develop models
   of OSS adoption. The study reported in this paper used the Decomposed
   Theory of Planned Behaviour (DTPB) as a basis for the research
   propositions, with the aim of: (i) developing a framework of empirical
   factors that influence OSS adoption; and (ii) appraising it through case
   study evaluation with 10 U.K. Small- to medium-sized enterprises in the
   IT sector. The demonstration of the capabilities of the framework
   suggests that it is able to provide a reliable explanation of the
   complex and subjective factors that influence attitudes, subjective
   norms and control over the use of OSS. The paper further argues that the
   DTPB proved useful in this research area and that it can provide a
   variety of situation-specific insights related to factors that influence
   the adoption of OSS. European Journal of Information Systems (2011) 20,

   resolving this challenge by demonstrating a methodology and establishing
   knowledge to understand how the contributors' roles and their dynamics,
   reflected in the activities contributors perform, are exhibited in OSS
   communities. Based on an analysis of user action data from 29 GitHub
   projects, we extracted six activities that distinguished four Active
   roles and five Supporting roles of OSS contributors, as well as patterns
   in role changes. Through the lens of the Activity Theory, these findings
   provided rich design guidelines for OSS tools to support diverse

Abstract = {Firm participation in open source software (OSS) development is a
   noteworthy phenomenon and includes two types of firm-participating OSS
   projects: community founded (developed from an open project) and spinout
   (spun out from an information technology firm's internal project). OSS
   project leaders implement quality controls to improve the quality of
   developed products. They may not be aware that their implementation of
   quality controls produces a side effect-quality controls signal
   unobservable project quality to volunteers and promote volunteers'
   continued participation intentions (VCPI). We focus on two quality
   controls-accreditation and code acceptance, which, respectively, map to
   the input and output quality of an OSS project-and compare their
   respective effects on VCPI in community-founded and spinout projects. We
   propose that accreditation and code acceptance influence VCPI by
   signaling unobservable input and output quality to volunteers. As we
   focus on continued participation, we theorize as to how volunteers'
   tenure in OSS projects moderates the relationships between the signaling
   effects of input and output quality controls and VCPI. Furthermore, we
   theorize as to how the OSS project type moderates the effects of quality
   controls on VCPI. We surveyed 304 volunteers from 40 OSS projects and
   constructed a two-level model of project and developer factors to
   explain VCPI. Our findings indicate that both accreditation and code
   acceptance enhance VCPI. The signaling effects on VCPI associated with
   accreditation decline with volunteer tenure, but those associated with
   code acceptance do not. Accreditation and code acceptance influence
   VCPI, with community-founded projects exhibitingweaker direct positive
   effects and spinout projects exhibiting stronger direct positive
   effects. We discuss the theoretical and practical implications of these
   findings.},

Abstract = {PTCLab (Phase Transformation Crystallography Lab) is free and
   open-source software to calculate the crystallographic features formed
   during a phase transformation, such as orientation relationship,
   interface orientation, interfacial structure etc. This program covers
   the crystallographic theories for both martensitic and diffusional
   transformation and allows users to represent the results in
   stereographic projection. The crystallographic models treated in PTCLab
   include the classical phenomenological theory of martensite
   crystallography (PTMC), the double shear version of PTMC, the invariant
   line model, O-lattice theory, the O-line model, the recently developed
   three-dimensional near coincidence site method, the edge-to-edge
   matching model and variant selection analysis. In addition, a number of
   basic crystallographic calculations for single or multiple crystal
   structures can be performed with the calculation pad. High-quality
   composite stereographic projection and electron diffraction patterns can
   be also obtained by the present application. PTCLab is written in
   Python, runnable cross platform, and is distributed at
   https://sourceforge.net/projects/tclab/.},

Abstract = {Community-based Open Source Software (OSS) projects are usually
   self-organized and dynamic, receiving contributions from distributed
   volunteers. These communities' survival, long-term success, and
   continuity demand a constant influx of newcomers. However, newcomers
   face many barriers when making their first contribution to an OSS
   project, leading in many cases to dropouts. Therefore, a major challenge
   for OSS projects is to provide ways to support newcomers during their
   first contribution. In this paper, our goal was to evaluate how the
   newcomers' perceived efficacy is influenced by the use of an environment
   that organizes the project information for developers who want to place
   their first contribution to an OSS project. To accomplish this goal, we
   created FLOSScoach, a portal aiming to support newcomers to OSS
   projects, which was implemented based on a model of barriers proposed in
   previous research. Then, we conducted a study, in which 46 students,
   split in case and control group, were asked to contribute to an OSS
   project. We assessed the newcomers' self-efficacy by conducting a
   questionnaire before and after the assignment. We found that presenting
   the information according to the model of barriers had a positive
   influence on newcomers' self-efficacy, empowered the newcomers, making
   them more confident and comfortable during the contribution process.
   However, there is also some indication that FLOSScoach did not lower the
   technical barriers.},

Journal = {ECONOMICS BULLETIN},

Pages = {1174-1184},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) generally offers a high-quality alternative
   to proprietary software (e.g. Linux, Apache, Android, etc.) for many
   applications. Although OSS is usually free of charge, its diffusion
   remains limited, Should government intervene to promote the diffusion of
   OSS, and offer potential adopters some learning or financial support?
   This paper examines whether public subsidies for OSS are socially
   desirable. and how the extent of compatibility between OSS and
   proprietary software (PS) might influence the optimal subsidy offered.
   We consider a mixed duopoly model in which a PS company competes with an
   OSS community. Users are heterogeneous in their ability to use OSS, and
   their utility depends on the number of users who adopt the same or
   compatible software (existence of network externalities). Four
   situations are distinguished: full compatibility between OSS and PS,
   full incompatibility, and one-way compatibility (either only OSS or PS
   is compatible). We show that if the government places more weight on
   consumer surplus. public subsidies are welfare-enhancing. But the
   optimal subsidy level is larger with full compatibility and PS
   compatibility than full incompatibility and OSS compatibility. These
   results suggest that government policy towards OSS should be conditional
   on the degree of compatibility between PS and OSS.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF STRATEGIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS},
Year = {2012},
Volume = {21},
Number = {4},
Pages = {257-273},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is an important trend in the information
   technology adoption landscape. It has received considerable attention in
   the scientific literature, but mostly in the professional press. In
   fact, there is much debate over its actual commercial and organizational
   value. Since the public discourse accompanying an IT may influence
   adoption decisions, it is important to consider IT specialists'
   perceptions of the discourse on OSS. In this study, we investigated the
   relationship between IT specialists' profiles, IT specialists' reception
   of the public discourse on OSS, and their organizations' receptivity to
   OSS. Drawing on the socio-cognitive perspective of IT innovation
   adoption and the organizing vision theory, a survey of 271 IT
   specialists was conducted to examine these issues. Our results indicate
   that a majority of IT specialists in our sample are rather neutral about
   the OSS concept conveyed in the public discourse. However, our sample
   also comprises respondents with more extreme perceptions who can be
   classified as either supporters or detractors. Our results indicate that
   detractors have more years of experience but have been less exposed to
   OSS than supporters, and that IT specialists' perceptions of the OSS
   concept are positively associated with their organizations' openness to
   OSS adoption and, to a lesser extent, with the existence of an
   organizational policy that favors OSS adoption. Altogether, our findings
   provide strong support for the organizing vision theory and the idea
   that the popularity of an IT innovation concept favors the adoption of
   the material IT innovation in organizations. By providing a preliminary
   test of a nomological network of IT specialists' perceptions of the OSS
   concept, our study offers insights as to why organizations may or may
   not take OSS into account in their software procurement decisions. (C)

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is currently one of the most debated
   phenomena in both academia and the software industry. Several OSS
   systems have achieved significant market success but they are rather
   server-side applications, such as the Apache Web server, MySQL database
   server, or other components of IT infrastructure. On the other hand,
   penetration of OSS systems on the market of desktop applications is
   rather limited and it is virtually dominated by products of one software
   vendor, i.e., Microsoft. In this chapter, the benefits and barriers of
   OSS implementation in Poland are investigated. Based on the well-known
   technology organization environment model of IT technology adoption of a
   simple model was developed and evaluated empirically, based on the data
   from the survey of 178 enterprises and public institutions. Statistical
   analysis using partial least squares (PLS) was performed. Of the four
   factors considered to determine adoption decisions (benefits, costs,
   environment, and organization), it was found that only perceived
   benefits and environment are significant.},

   as formulated in NAICS, a key production process is the acquisition and
   defense of copyright. With open source, copyleft licensing eliminates
   copyright acquisition and protection as major production processes,
   suggesting that the open source software industry warrants a separate
   NAICS category. More importantly, our analysis suggests that NAICS

Journal = {COMPUTERS \& GEOSCIENCES},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {137},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and induced polarization (IP)
   methods are now widely used in many interdisciplinary projects. Although
   field surveys using these methods are relatively straightforward, ERT
   and IP data require the application of inverse methods prior to any
   interpretation. Several established non-commercial inversion codes
   exist, but they typically require advanced knowledge to use effectively.
   ResIPy was developed to provide a more intuitive, user-friendly,
   approach to inversion of geoelectrical data, using an open source
   graphical user interface (GUI) and a Python application programming
   interface (API). ResIPy utilizes the mature R2/cR2 inversion codes for
   ERT and IP, respectively. The ResIPy GUI facilitates data importing,
   data filtering, error modeling, mesh generation, data inversion and
   plotting of inverse models. Furthermore, the easy to use design of
   ResIPy and the help provided inside makes it an effective educational
   tool. This paper highlights the rationale and structure behind the
   interface, before demonstrating its capabilities in a range of
   environmental problems. Specifically, we demonstrate the ease at which
   ResIPy deals with topography, advanced data processing, the ability to
   fix and constrain regions of known geoelectrical properties, time-lapse
   analysis and the capability for forward modeling and survey design.},

   perspective. The objective: to explore the evolution of a long-lived
   open source project with the intention of learning how code evolution
   has progressed over time. This investigation provides a case study of
   Nethack, an enormously popular open source game that has been in
   development for more than a decade. The Goal Question Metric approach
   was employed to derive measurement goals for the evaluation of open
   source software (OSS) evolution in Nethack. According to Lehman's laws,
   the incremental growth size of successive releases tends to decline
   during the active life of an evolving program. Our results demonstrate
   that the evolution patterns observed for Nethack do not consistently
   conform to Lehman's laws. The growth in Nethack's tarball distribution
   size, as well as lines of code, exhibited a linear increase in growth in
   this investigation. Additionally, Lehman's laws dictate that the
   complexity of a system will increase as it ages. Interestingly, in
   Nethack, the McCabe cyclomatic complexity was found to decrease with
   successive releases while the Halstead complexity increased These
   results suggest that while the structure complexity of Nethack declined
   with successive releases, the complexity of calculational logic
   increased. These findings raise questions concerning the evolution of
   other OSS applications.},

Abstract = {Weather radar analysis has become increasingly sophisticated over the
   past 50 years, and efforts to keep software up to date have generally
   lagged behind the needs of the users. We argue that progress has been
   impeded by the fact that software has not been developed and shared as a
   community.
   Recently, the situation has been changing. In this paper, the developers
   of a number of open-source software (OSS) projects highlight the
   potential of OSS to advance radar-related research. We argue that the
   community-based development of OSS holds the potential to reduce
   duplication of efforts and to create transparency in implemented
   algorithms while improving the quality and scope of the software. We
   also conclude that there is sufficiently mature technology to support
   collaboration across different software projects. This could allow for
   consolidation toward a set of interoperable software platforms, each
   designed to accommodate very specific user requirements.},

Abstract = {Accumulated changes on a software system are not uniformly distributed:
   some elements are changed more often than others. For optimal impact,
   the limited time and effort for complexity control, called
   anti-regressive work, should be applied to the elements of the system
   which are frequently changed and are complex. Based on this, we propose
   a maintenance guidance model (MGM) which is tested against real-world
   data. MGM takes into account several dimensions of complexity: size,
   structural complexity and coupling. Results show that maintainers of the
   eight open source systems studied tend, in general, to prioritize their
   anti-regressive work in line with the predictions given by our MGM, even
   though, divergences also exist. MGM offers a history-based alternative
   to existing approaches to the identification of elements for
   anti-regressive work, most of which use static code characteristics
   only.},

Abstract = {Context: The need to accelerate software delivery, supporting faster
   time-to-market and frequent community developers/users feedback are
   issues that have lead to relevant changes in software development
   practices. Many Open Source Software (OSS) projects have engaged to
   achieve this through the adoption of agile practices in software release
   practices. Problem: There is no secondary study in the literature
   discussing evidences of the influence of agile approaches in OSS
   projects release practices. Goal: Identify published reports in the
   literature that characterize to which extent agility has influenced
   release approaches in OSS projects. Method: The characterization of
   studies followed a five-phase process to present a panoramic view of
   software releases practices in the context of OSS projects. Results: The
   overall data collected from 14 studies published from January 2006 to
   January 2016 depicted the following scenario: nine issues that
   characterize the advantages/influence of agility in OSS release
   approaches; four challenge issues in this approach; three possibilities
   of implementation and two main motivations towards the adoption of
   software release approaches through agility; and finally three main
   strategies to implement it. Conclusion: This study provides an
   up-to-date and structured understanding of the influence of agility on
   OSS projects release approaches based on findings systematically
   collected from a list of relevant references in the last decade.},

Abstract = {Providing students with the professional, communication, and technical
   skills necessary to contribute to an ongoing software project is
   critical, yet often difficult in higher education. Involving student
   teams in real-world projects developed by professional software
   engineers for actual users is invaluable. Free and Open Source Software
   (FOSS) has emerged as an important approach to creating, managing, and
   distributing software products. Involvement in a FOSS project provides
   students with experience developing within a professional environment,
   with a professional community, and has the additional benefit that all
   communication and artifacts are publicly accessible. Humanitarian Free
   and Open Source Software (HFOSS) projects benefit the human condition in
   some manner. They can range from disaster management to microfinance to
   election-monitoring applications. This article discusses the benefits
   and challenges of students participating in HFOSS projects within the
   context of undergraduate computing degree programs. This article reports
   on a 6-year study of students' self-reported attitudes and learning from
   participation in an HFOSS project. Results indicate that working on an
   HFOSS project increases interest in computing. In addition, students
   perceive that they are gaining experience in developing software in a

Abstract = {The success of open source software (OSS) projects depends heavily on
   the voluntary participation of a large number of developers. To remain
   sustainable, it is vital for an OSS project community to maintain a
   critical mass of core developers. Yet, only a small number of
   participants (identified here as ``joiners'') can successfully socialize
   themselves into the core developer group. Despite the importance of
   joiners' socialization behavior, quantitative longitudinal research in
   this area is lacking. This exploratory study examines joiners' temporal
   socialization trajectories and their impacts on joiners' status
   progression. Guided by social resource theory and using the growth
   mixture modeling (GMM) approach to study 133 joiners in 40 OSS projects,
   the authors found that these joiners differed in both their initial
   levels and their growth trajectories of socialization and identified
   four distinct classes of joiner socialization behavior. They also found
   that these distinct latent classes of joiners varied in their status
   progression within their communities. The implications for research and
   practice are correspondingly discussed.},

Abstract = {PSI4 is a free and open-source ab initio electronic structure program
   providing implementations of Hartree-Fock, density functional theory,

   to density fitting and multi-core parallelism. The program is a hybrid
   of C++ and Python, and calculations may be run with very simple text

   functionalities via Python. Job specification may be passed using The
   Molecular Sciences Software Institute (MolSSI) QCSCHEMA data format,
   facilitating interoperability. A rewrite of our top-level computation

Abstract = {A multidimensional image navigation and display software was designed
   for display and interpretation of large sets of multidimensional and
   multimodality images such as combined PET-CT studies. The software is
   developed in Objective-C on a Macintosh platform under the MacOS X
   operating system using the GNUstep development environment. It also
   benefits from the extremely fast and optimized 3D graphic capabilities
   of the OpenGL graphic standard widely used for computer games optimized
   for taking advantage of any hardware graphic accelerator boards
   available. In the design of the software special attention was given to
   adapt the user interface to the specific and complex tasks of navigating
   through large sets of image data. An interactive jog-wheel device widely
   used in the video and movie industry was implemented to allow users to
   navigate in the different dimensions of an image set much faster than
   with a traditional mouse or on-screen cursors and sliders. The program
   can easily be adapted for very specific tasks that require a limited
   number of functions, by adding and removing tools from the program's
   toolbar and avoiding an overwhelming number of unnecessary tools and
   functions. The processing and image rendering tools of the software are
   based on the open-source libraries ITK and VTK. This ensures that all
   new developments in image processing that could emerge from other
   academic institutions using these libraries can be directly ported to
   the OsiriX program. OsiriX is provided free of charge under the GNU

Abstract = {In this paper, a qualitative case study of women-dominated Free/Libre
   Open Source Software (FLOSS) project is conducted to explore factors
   which successfully involve and sustain women FLOSS participants by
   drawing on Brown and Levinson's politeness theory. The culture and norms
   of FLOSS appear to be formulated by what is privileged/marginalized by
   men in the context of FLOSS, and such men's valuing is likely to
   threaten women FLOSS participants' face.
   Our findings are 1) in the FLOSS context, there are gender-based
   differences in determining what threatens face on the basis of gendered
   expectations of what is polite, and 2) women-dominated FLOSS
   participants are ``practically{''} polite in software development
   practices. These findings were explored through an in-depth analysis of
   interaction episodes on the email list, archival public interview data
   of women FLOSS developers, FLOSS development environment, and
   instructive materials shared in public. Our paper shows how politeness
   theory can be extended to the ``practice{''} of coding and non-coding
   work, and provides FLOSS communities with guidelines for involving and
   sustaining women participants in FLOSS development.},

   chemical compound libraries. Several software tools for drawing and
   editing compound structures are available, but they lack options for
   automatic generation of chemical libraries. We have implemented ChemT,
   an easy-to-use open-source software tool that automates the process of
   preparing custom-made template-based chemical libraries. ChemT
   automatically generates three-dimensional chemical libraries by
   inputting a chemical template and the functional groups of interest. The
   graphical user interface of ChemT is self-explanatory, and a complete
   tutorial is provided. Several file formats are accepted by ChemT, and it
   is possible to filter the generated compounds according to different
   physicochemical properties. The compounds can be subject to force field
   minimization, and the resulting three-dimensional structures recorded on
   commonly used file formats. ChemT may be a valuable tool for
   investigators interested in using in silico virtual screening tools,
   such as quantitative structure-activity relationship modelling or
   molecular docking, in order to prioritize compounds for further chemical
   synthesis. To demonstrate the usefulness of ChemT, we describe an
   example based on a thieno{[}3,2-b] pyridine template. ChemT is available
   free of charge from our website at http://www.esa.ipb.pt/similar to

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is one of the most trusted technologies for
   implementing industry 4.0 solutions. The study aims to assist a
   community of OSS developers in quantifying the product's reliability.
   This research proposes reliability growth models for OSS by
   incorporating dynamicity in the debugging process. For this, stochastic
   differential equation-based analytical models are developed to represent
   the instantaneous rate of error generation. The fault introduction rate
   is modeled using exponential and Erlang distribution functions. The
   empirical applications of the proposed methodology are verified using
   the real-life failure data of the Open Source Software projects, GNU
   Network Object Model Environment, and Eclipse. A soft computing
   technique, Genetic Algorithm, is applied to estimate model parameters.
   Cross-validation is also performed to examine the forecasting efficacy
   of the model. The predictive power of the developed models is compared
   with various benchmark studies. The data analysis is conducted using the
   R statistical computing software. The results demonstrate the proposed
   models' efficacy in parameter estimation and predictive performance. In
   addition, the optimal release time policy based on the proposed
   mathematical models is presented by formulating the optimization model
   that intends to minimize the total cost of software development under
   reliability constraints. The numerical illustration and sensitivity
   analysis exhibit the proposed problem's practical significance. The
   findings of the numerical analysis exemplify the proposed study's
   capability of decision-making under uncertainty.},

Abstract = {Microblogging as an emerging social media technology is becoming
   increasingly popular in more and more OSS communities and forms various
   follower networks. However, the impacts of microblogging follower
   network on OSS project success are rarely studied. In this study, we
   adopt a social network perspective to identify and hypothesize that
   three microblogging network mechanisms will positively affect OSS
   project success through knowledge sharing, and attracting more skillful
   and eminent developers. Using longitudinal data from a large online OSS
   community called Ohloh, we empirically examine the impacts of various
   factors for these two type of mechanisms on the commercial and
   technological successes of OSS projects. We found that preferential
   attachment and structure hole factors are supported, while accumulative
   advantage factors are partially supported. Our findings may provide
   insights for OSS stakeholders to effectively manage microblogging
   techniques for achieving project success.},

Title = {Falcon: a highly flexible open-source software for closed-loop
   neuroscience},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF NEURAL ENGINEERING},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {14},
Number = {4},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Objective. Closed-loop experiments provide unique insights into brain
   dynamics and function. To facilitate a wide range of closed-loop
   experiments, we created an open-source software platform that enables
   high-performance real-time processing of streaming experimental data.
   Approach. We wrote Falcon, a C++ multi-threaded software in which the
   user can load and execute an arbitrary processing graph. Each node of a
   Falcon graph is mapped to a single thread and nodes communicate with
   each other through thread-safe buffers. The framework allows for easy
   implementation of new processing nodes and data types. Falcon was tested
   both on a 32-core and a 4-core workstation. Streaming data was read from
   either a commercial acquisition system (Neuralynx) or the open-source
   Open Ephys hardware, while closed-loop TTL pulses were generated with a
   USB module for digital output. We characterized the round-trip latency
   of our Falcon-based closed-loop system, as well as the specific latency
   contribution of the software architecture, by testing processing graphs
   with up to 32 parallel pipelines and eight serial stages. We finally
   deployed Falcon in a task of real-time detection of population bursts
   recorded live from the hippocampus of a freely moving rat. Main results.
   On Neuralynx hardware, round-trip latency was well below 1 ms and stable
   for at least 1 h, while on Open Ephys hardware latencies were below 15
   ms. The latency contribution of the software was below 0.5 ms.
   Round-trip and software latencies were similar on both 32- and 4-core
   workstations. Falcon was used successfully to detect population bursts
   online with similar to 40 ms average latency. Significance. Falcon is a
   novel open-source software for closed-loop neuroscience. It has
   sub-millisecond intrinsic latency and gives the experimenter direct
   control of CPU resources. We envisage Falcon to be a useful tool to the
   neuroscientific community for implementing a wide variety of closed-loop
   experiments, including those requiring use of complex data structures
   and real-time execution of computationally intensive algorithms, such as
   population neural decoding/encoding from large cell assemblies.},

Journal = {FIRE SAFETY JOURNAL},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {140},
Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {The traditional methods to understand the development of elevated
   temperature in a structure, and also the associated structural response,
   are not representative of realistic fire scenarios. To provide a more
   accurate and realistic reflection of the fire development, the current
   paper develops a generic middleware which interfaces between the
   computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software Fire Dynamics Simulator
   (FDS) and the finite element (FE) analysis software OpenSees. This
   framework enables a fully integrated simulation of a realistic fire
   scenario including the heat transfer through the structure and the
   resulting thermo-mechanical response. The proposed framework is
   open-source and freely available and therefore can be used and further
   developed by researchers and practicing engineers and customised to
   their requirements. This paper shows validation against two sets of
   experimental results and one real fire incident. A number of different
   types of thermal boundary conditions such as gas temperatures and heat
   fluxes, are obtained from the CFD analysis and are then used in the
   subsequent heat transfer and thermo-mechanical analysis. The primary
   advantage of this computational tool is that it provides consultants and
   designers with the means to undertake large-scale projects requiring
   performance-based fire engineering solutions.},

Abstract = {We propose a continuum model for the degree distribution of directed

   follow Zipf's law for the intermediate nodes, but the heavily linked
   nodes and the poorly linked nodes deviate from this trend and exhibit
   finite-size effects. The finite-size parameters make a quantitative
   distinction between the in-directed and out-directed networks. For the
   out-degree distribution, the initial condition for a dynamic evolution
   corresponds to the limiting count of the most heavily linked nodes that
   the out-directed network can finally have. The number of nodes
   contributing out-directed links grows with every generation of software
   release, but this growth ultimately saturates toward a terminal value,
   due to the finiteness of semantic possibilities in the network.},

Title = {Adapting usability techniques for application in open source Software: A
   multiple case study},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {107},
Pages = {48-64},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Context: As a result of the growth of non-developer users of OSS
   applications, usability has over the last ten years begun to attract the
   interest of the open source software (OSS) community. The OSS community
   has some special characteristics (such as worldwide geographical
   distribution of both users and developers and missing resources) which
   are an obstacle to the direct adoption of many usability techniques as
   specified in the human-computer interaction (HCI) field.
   Objective: The aim of this research is to adapt and evaluate the
   feasibility of applying four usability techniques: user profiles,
   personas, direct observation and post-test information to four OSS
   projects from the viewpoint of the development team.
   Method: The applied research method was a multiple case study of the
   following OSS projects: Quite Universal Circuit Simulator, PSeInt,
   FreeMind and OpenOffice Writer.
   Results: We formalized the application procedure of each of the adapted
   usability techniques. We found that either there were no procedures for
   adopting usability techniques in OSS or they were not fully
   systematized. Additionally, we identified the adverse conditions that
   are an obstacle to their adoption in OSS and propose the special
   adaptations required to overcome the obstacles. To avoid some of the
   adverse conditions, we created web artefacts (online survey, wiki and
   forum) that are very popular in the OSS field.
   Conclusion: It is necessary to adapt usability techniques for
   application in OSS projects considering their idiosyncrasy.
   Additionally, we found that there are obstacles (for example, number of
   participant users, biased information provided by developers) to the
   application of the techniques. Despite these obstacles, it is feasible
   to apply the adapted techniques in OSS projects.},

Title = {patRoon: open source software platform for environmental mass
   spectrometry based non-target screening},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CHEMINFORMATICS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {13},
Number = {1},
Month = {JAN 6},
Abstract = {Mass spectrometry based non-target analysis is increasingly adopted in
   environmental sciences to screen and identify numerous chemicals
   simultaneously in highly complex samples. However, current data
   processing software either lack functionality for environmental
   sciences, solve only part of the workflow, are not openly available
   and/or are restricted in input data formats. In this paper we present
   patRoon, a new R based open-source software platform, which provides
   comprehensive, fully tailored and straightforward non-target analysis
   workflows. This platform makes the use, evaluation and mixing of
   well-tested algorithms seamless by harmonizing various common (primarily
   open) software tools under a consistent interface. In addition, patRoon
   offers various functionality and strategies to simplify and perform
   automated processing of complex (environmental) data effectively.
   patRoon implements several effective optimization strategies to
   significantly reduce computational times. The ability of patRoon to
   perform time-efficient and automated non-target data annotation of
   environmental samples is demonstrated with a simple and reproducible
   workflow using open-access data of spiked samples from a drinking water
   treatment plant study. In addition, the ability to easily use, combine
   and evaluate different algorithms was demonstrated for three commonly
   used feature finding algorithms. This article, combined with already
   published works, demonstrate that patRoon helps make comprehensive
   (environmental) non-target analysis readily accessible to a wider
   community of researchers.},

Abstract = {In this study, we seek to understand socio-technical interactions in a
   system development context via an examination of the joint effect of
   developer team structure and open source software (OSS) architecture on
   OSS development performance. Using detailed data collected from code
   repositories from Soure-Forge.com, we find that developer team structure
   and software architecture significantly moderate each other's effect on
   OSS development performance. Larger teams tend to producemore favorable
   project performance when the project being developed has a high level of
   structural interdependency while projects with a low level of structural
   interdependency require smaller teams in order to achieve better project
   performance. Meanwhile, centralized teams tend to have a positive impact
   on project performance when the OSS project has a high level of
   structural interdependency. However, when a project has a low level of
   structural interdependency, centralized teams can impair project
   performance. This study extends our understanding of information
   technology's deep engagement in organizational life and provides
   directions for open source practitioners to better organize their

Booktitle = {RELATIONAL DATABASES AND OPEN-SOURCE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENTS},
Series = {Computer Science Technology and Applications},
Year = {2010},
Pages = {257-273},
Abstract = {Organizations implement Enterprise solutions, mainly Enterprise Resource
   Planning (ERP) systems, with the aim of attaining operational efficiency
   and the incorporation into new markets through the real time information
   flow control of the entire organization. However, ERP systems are
   complex tools, particularly for small and medium size enterprises
   (SMEs).
   For this reason, new ERP configurations have arisen, such as Open Source
   Software-ERP (OSS-ERP). In the website Sourceforge.net, we can identify
   2058 projects about OSS-ERP, although all of them have not had an impact
   on the ERP market. This data is indicative of the increasing relevance
   of this enterprise solution for organizations. At this moment, the
   OSS-ERP vendors with a greater diffusion are Compiere, Openbravo, Abanq
   (previously FacturaLux), ERP5, Tiny ERP, Fisterra, OFBiz, SQL-Ledger and
   WebERP.
   OSS-ERP has three relevant advantages for organizations: (1) increased
   adaptability, (2) decreased reliance on a single supplier, (3) reduced
   costs. OSS-ERP generally include the necessary functions to integrally
   manage all the activities of a company. Due to their high flexibility,
   these tools can be adapted to the client's specific needs. Furthermore,
   as OSS-ERP are based on open software technologies, organizations do not
   have to pay licenses or exclusive contracts. With the collaboration of
   partners, OSS-ERP vendors receive benefits for the support services.
   Research in OSS has identified individual personal motives for using OSS
   software, analyzing specific OSS solutions, or the OSS movement itself.
   The literature in Enterprise solutions has also analyzed the main
   organizational factors for successfully implementing an ERP system.
   However, OSS-ERP is a research topic barely analyzed by the literature.
   This paper's aim is to specifically focus on the organizational and
   motivational factors for implementing OSS-ERP. The authors developed a
   research work for testing the impact of organizational and motivational
   factors on the implementation of OSS-ERP by means of a survey of
   organizations with OSS-ERP and OSS-ERP users.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has become an important alternative method of
   organizing the production of software and has gained in popularity and
   use because of its benefits and costs relative to the dominant
   proprietary software model. In this paper, I use evidence from the
   United States and Canada to examine the distribution of these benefits
   and costs. I argue that although the rhetoric surrounding OSS is
   supported empirically, the benefits of OSS have been limited because of
   the way this technological project has evolved within its associated
   policy environment. That is, although ostensibly neutral, the policies
   and laws of both the U.S. and Canadian governments have tended to be
   positioned implicitly against the use of OSS both in the public sector
   and in the economy generally. In addition, OSS use and development
   requires a set of skills that are absent in many instances or create
   prohibitively high costs. Thus OSS is typically used by larger
   organizations, and its development is restricted to a mostly male,
   highly educated, high-income group of contributors. Therefore while the
   benefits of OSS are real, the distribution of these benefits is skewed.

Title = {SimpleMind: An open-source software environment that adds thinking to
   deep neural networks},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {18},
Number = {4},
Month = {APR 13},
Abstract = {Deep neural networks (DNNs) detect patterns in data and have shown
   versatility and strong performance in many computer vision applications.
   However, DNNs alone are susceptible to obvious mistakes that violate
   simple, common sense concepts and are limited in their ability to use
   explicit knowledge to guide their search and decision making. While
   overall DNN performance metrics may be good, these obvious errors,
   coupled with a lack of explainability, have prevented widespread
   adoption for crucial tasks such as medical image analysis. The purpose
   of this paper is to introduce SimpleMind, an open-source software
   environment for Cognitive AI focused on medical image understanding. It
   allows creation of a knowledge base that describes expected
   characteristics and relationships between image objects in an intuitive
   human-readable form. The knowledge base can then be applied to an input
   image to recognize and understand its content. SimpleMind brings
   thinking to DNNs by: (1) providing methods for reasoning with the
   knowledge base about image content, such as spatial inferencing and
   conditional reasoning to check DNN outputs; (2) applying process
   knowledge, in the form of general-purpose software agents, that are
   dynamically chained together to accomplish image preprocessing, DNN
   prediction, and result post-processing, and (3) performing automatic
   co-optimization of all knowledge base parameters to adapt agents to
   specific problems. SimpleMind enables reasoning on multiple detected
   objects to ensure consistency, providing cross-checking between DNN
   outputs. This machine reasoning improves the reliability and
   trustworthiness of DNNs through an interpretable model and explainable
   decisions. Proof-of-principle example applications are provided that
   demonstrate how SimpleMind supports and improves deep neural networks by
   embedding them within a Cognitive AI environment.},

Abstract = {Open source software has now become a significant alternative in meeting
   different needs in business, government and academic environments, such
   as needs related to economics, management, learning and innovation,
   among others. The purpose of this research was to examine the research
   trends and evolution of the field of open source software adoption
   between 2001 and 2019. The methodology used involved bibliometric
   analysis of 289 documents obtained through a Scopus extracted search
   equation, generating indicators of quantity and quality and analyzing
   the emerging themes in said field of knowledge. The findings of the
   research include the existence of a strong trend towards research and
   dissemination regarding open source software, particularly in countries
   such as the United States, whose institutions and authors demonstrate
   high levels of productivity and dissemination. There was also evidence
   of an interest in reducing barriers and encouraging the adoption and
   implementation of the software in other sectors where its use is still
   lagging behind. The main conclusion of the research is that the research
   of open source software adoption focuses on the following topics:
   innovation, Linux, FLOSS, engineering requirements, risk management,
   open innovation, the public sector, social network analysis and total

Abstract = {The increasingly widespread use of open source software (OSS) is an
   indication of its success However, as a software development model OSS
   still has shortcomings that need to be resolved In particular, the
   question of usability and its improvement in an OSS context remains a
   significant ongoing Issue that demands further investigation This is
   especially so given the unique manner in which OSS diverges from
   traditional software development models Current experience with OSS does
   not favor the existence of a positive relation between the standard OSS
   development paradigm and good usability practice We believe that
   addressing the inadequacy of usability expertise in the OSS community
   will improve the quality of its products and enhance their
   competitiveness Motivated by the unique user-driven character of the OSS
   model, we propose an exploratory method for inspection which is intended
   to assist OS S users in contributing to open source usability inspection
   This method provides an effective adaptation of the `learning-by-doing'
   approach to the domain of usability inspection This is accomplished by
   innovatively applying usability patterns to guide usability exploration,
   incorporating strategies for `outlining knowledge' and `exploration
   freedom' and implementing both techniques in an integrated inspection
   environment. The results of an experiment involving a group of OSS users
   inspecting an open source project called dotproject demonstrate that
   this method outperforms traditional heuristics based inspection The
   paper also considers the applicability of the usability method and tool
   developed to usability improvement in the context of traditional

   Software in Docker Containers},
Journal = {REMOTE SENSING},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {9},
Number = {3},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA) mostly uses proprietary
   software, but the interest in Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) for
   GEOBIA is growing. This interest stems not only from cost savings, but
   also from benefits concerning reproducibility and collaboration.
   Technical challenges hamper practical reproducibility, especially when
   multiple software packages are required to conduct an analysis. In this
   study, we use containerization to package a GEOBIA workflow in a
   well-defined FOSS environment. We explore the approach using two
   software stacks to perform an exemplary analysis detecting destruction
   of buildings in bi-temporal images of a conflict area. The analysis
   combines feature extraction techniques with segmentation and
   object-based analysis to detect changes using automatically-defined
   local reference values and to distinguish disappeared buildings from
   non-target structures. The resulting workflow is published as FOSS
   comprising both the model and data in a ready to use Docker image and a
   user interface for interaction with the containerized workflow. The
   presented solution advances GEOBIA in the following aspects: higher
   transparency of methodology; easier reuse and adaption of workflows;
   better transferability between operating systems; complete description
   of the software environment; and easy application of workflows by image
   analysis experts and non-experts. As a result, it promotes not only the
   reproducibility of GEOBIA, but also its practical adoption.},

Journal = {EMPIRICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {27},
Number = {4},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Software Product Lines (SPLs) are rarely developed from scratch.
   Commonly, they emerge from one product when there is a need to create
   tailored variants, or from existing variants created in an ad-hoc way
   once their separated maintenance and evolution become challenging.
   Despite the vast literature about re-engineering systems into SPLs and
   related technical approaches, there is a lack of detailed analysis of
   the process itself and the effort involved. In this paper, we provide
   and analyze empirical data of the extraction processes of two
   open-source case studies, namely ArgoUML and Phaser. Both cases emerged
   from the transition of a monolithic system into an SPL. The analysis
   relies on information mined from the version control history of their
   respective source-code repositories and the discussion with developers
   that took part in the process. Unlike previous works that focused mostly
   on the structural results of the final SPL, the contribution of this
   study is an in-depth characterization of the processes. With this work,
   we aimed at providing a deeper understanding of the strategies for SPL
   extraction and their implications. Our results indicate that the source
   code changes can range from almost a fourth to over half of the total
   lines of code. Developers may or may not use branching strategies for
   feature extraction. Additionally, the problems faced during the
   extraction process may be due to lack of tool support, complexity on
   managing feature dependencies and issues with feature constraints. We
   made publicly available the datasets and the analysis scripts of both
   case studies to be used as a baseline for extractive SPL adoption

Abstract = {1. Meta-analysis and meta-regression are statistical methods for
   synthesizing and modelling the results of different studies, and are
   critical research synthesis tools in ecology and evolutionary biology
   (E\&E). However, many E\&E researchers carry out meta-analyses using
   software that is limited in its statistical functionality and is not
   easily updatable. It is likely that these software limitations have
   slowed the uptake of new methods in E\&E and limited the scope and
   quality of inferences from research syntheses.
   2. We developed OpenMEE: Open Meta-analyst for Ecology and Evolution to
   address the need for advanced, easy-to-use software for meta-analysis
   and meta-regression. OpenMEE has a cross-platform, easy-to-use graphical
   user interface (GUI) that gives E\&E researchers access to the diverse
   and advanced statistical functionalities offered in R, without requiring
   knowledge of R programming.
   3. OpenMEE offers a suite of advanced meta-analysis and meta-regression
   methods for synthesizing continuous and categorical data, including
   meta-regression with multiple covariates and their interactions,
   phylogenetic analyses, and simple missing data imputation. OpenMEE also
   supports data importing and exporting, exploratory data analysis,

   4. As intuitive, open-source, free software for advanced methods in
   meta-analysis, OpenMEE meets the current and pressing needs of the E\&E
   community for teaching meta-analysis and conducting high-quality
   syntheses. Because OpenMEE's statistical components are written in R,
   new methods and packages can be rapidly incorporated into the software.
   To fully realize the potential of OpenMEE, we encourage community
   development with an aim to advance the capabilities of meta-analyses in
   E\&E.},

Abstract = {Free/Open Source Software (F/OSS) projects are people-oriented and
   knowledge intensive software development environments. Many researchers
   focused on mailing lists to study coding activities of software
   developers. How expert software developers interact with each other and
   with non-developers in the use of community products have received
   little attention. This paper discusses the altruistic sharing of
   knowledge between knowledge providers and knowledge seekers in the
   Developer and User mailing lists of the Debian project. We analyze the
   posting and replying activities of the participants by counting the
   number of email messages they posted to the lists and the number of
   replies they made to questions others posted. We found out that
   participants interact and share their knowledge a lot, their positing
   activity is fairly highly correlated with their replying activity, the
   characteristics of posting and replying activities are different for
   different kinds of lists, and the knowledge sharing activity of
   self-organizing Free/Open Source communities could best be explained in
   terms of what we called ``Fractal Cubic Distribution{''} rather than the
   power-law distribution mostly reported in the literature. The paper also
   proposes what could be researched in knowledge sharing activities in
   F/OSS projects mailing list and for what purpose. The research findings
   add to ` our understanding of knowledge sharing activities in F/OSS

   Software-development Teams with Internal Governance: An Extension to
   Decision-making Theory},
Journal = {COMMUNICATIONS OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {46},
Pages = {484-510},
Abstract = {Community-based free/libre open source software (FLOSS) teams with
   internal governance constitute an extreme example of distributed teams,
   prominent in software development. At the core of distributed team
   success lies team decision making and execution. However, in FLOSS
   teams, one might expect the lack of formal organizational structures to
   guide practices and reliance on asynchronous communication to make
   decision making problematic. Despite these challenges, many effective
   FLOSS teams exist. We lack research on how organizations make IS
   development decisions in general and on FLOSS decision-making models in
   particular. The decision-making literature on FLOSS teams has focused on
   the distribution of decision-making power. Therefore, it remains unclear
   which decision-making theories fit the FLOSS context best or whether we
   require novel decision-making models. We adopted a process-based
   perspective to analyze decision making in five community-based FLOSS
   teams. We identified five different decision-making processes, which
   indicates that FLOSS teams use multiple processes when making decisions.
   Decision-making behaviors remained stable across projects even though
   they required different types of knowledge. We help fill the literature
   gap about which FLOSS decision mechanisms one can explain using
   classical decision-making theories. Practically, community and company
   leaders can use knowledge of these decision processes to develop
   infrastructure that fits FLOSS decision-making processes.},

Abstract = {This paper describes a study done on the use of Free and Open Source
   Software ( FOSS) for enterprise applications of the public sector in Sri
   Lanka. The study investigates factors that affect the selection of
   software for public sector information systems with, an emphasis on how
   Free and Open Source Software ( FOSS) is used and could be used in such
   projects. The objectives of the study are as follows. The study aims to
   identify factors that affect the adoption of Software in Sri Lankan
   government sector projects. In addition to this it identifies features
   that are considered as important in such large Information Systems, and
   how they relate to Open Source Software adoption in the context of the
   public sector in Sri Lanka. The findings are analyzed and suitable
   recommendations are presented for better selection of software in the
   public sector. The work is important as it identifies and highlights
   factors that affect the choice of software in the public sector. This is
   important for several categories of people. It is of importance to the
   strategic management and policy makers to know what drives the
   information system procurement decisions in order to make more relevant
   policies and guidelines that are congruent with the needs in government
   sector departments. It is useful when advocating new technologies and
   information systems. This is especially true when advocating the use of
   Free and Open Source software for the use in the public sector in a
   wholesome and sustainable manner. The research is also important to
   software vendors and solution providers to the public sector in
   identifying what factors need to be taken in to account when bidding for
   public sector IS projects. The research is of a qualitative nature. It
   consists of multiple case studies of selected government sector
   departments and projects in Sri Lanka. The study investigates
   information systems developed by internal staff, developed by external
   consultants, procured systems, system implementation via private public
   partnerships (PPP) and projects guided by the Information and
   Communication Technology Agency (ICTA) of Sri Lanka. Data was gathered
   through interviews of staff at different levels of selected government
   sector Information Systems projects. The data was comparatively analyzed
   on a case by case basis to identify common patterns and trends among the
   investigated organizations and projects. The identified factors
   affecting the choice of software include the cost, technical
   specifications, bidder's expertise in selected technology and user's
   expertise in selected technology amongst other factors described in the
   full paper. The study identifies patterns between the choice of software
   - FOSS or non FOSS, and these identified factors. Based on these,
   recommendations are given to adopt and benefit from the use of FOSS in
   public sector enterprise level software projects.},

Abstract = {In nature ecosystems, animal life-spans are determined by genes and some

   life-spans are related to some internal or external characteristics.
   Analyzing the relations between these characteristics and the project
   life-span, may help developers, investors, and contributors to control
   the development cycle of the software project. The paper provides an
   insight on the project life-span for a free open source software
   ecosystem. The statistical analysis of some project characteristics in
   GitHub is presented, and we find that the choices of programming
   languages, the number of files, the label format of the project, and the
   relevant membership expressions can impact the life-span of a project.
   Based on these discovered characteristics, we also propose a prediction
   model to estimate the project life-span in open source software
   ecosystems. These results may help developers reschedule the project in
   open source software ecosystem.},

   done by Hinds suggested social network structure was instrumental
   towards the success of an OSS project, as measured by activity and

   hypotheses, based on social network theory and previous research on the
   importance of subgroup connectedness, were vastly different than the
   results of his study of over 100 successful OSS projects. He concluded
   that the social network structure had no significant effect on project
   success We outline how his approach disregarded potentially important
   factors and through a new study evaluate the role of the OSS developer
   network as it pertains to long-term project popularity. We also present
   an initial investigation into the adequacy of using the SourceForge
   activity percentile as a long-term success metric In contrast with
   Hinds, we show that previously existing developer-developer ties are an
   indicator of past and future project popularity.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) development is a highly collaborative process
   where individuals, groups and organizations interact to develop, operate

   in this process can have an impact on their working willingness and
   efficiency. Monitoring sentiment factors can help to improve OSS
   development and management. However, no method has been proposed to
   dynamically monitor the sentiment phenomena during the OSS development
   process. In this paper, an approach to detect Negative Sentiment-related
   Events (NSE) is proposed. It consists of two steps. The first step is to
   identify the burst interval of negative comments from open source
   projects, which corresponds to a NSE. The second step is to annotate
   this NSE with its event type. To support this approach, the types of
   NSEs in OSS projects are defined through an empirical study and
   classifiers are trained to annotate event types automatically. Moreover,
   conversation disentanglement techniques are employed to make the
   comments extracted more complete. Finally, the factors that have an
   influence on NSEs in the OSS project are studied.},

   An architectural model built in SketchUp (free) CAD software is exported
   in two different forms for the Radiance Lighting Simulation Suite to
   provide the lighting analysis. The different exports formats allow the
   3D CAD model to be accessed directly via Radiance for full lighting
   analysis or via the Blender Animation program for a graphical user
   interface limited option analysis. The Blender Modelling Environment for
   Architecture (BlendME) add-on exports the model and runs Radiance in the

Abstract = {Software peer review has proven to be a successful technique in open
   source software (OSS) development. In contrast to industry, where
   reviews are typically assigned to specific individuals, changes are
   broadcast to hundreds of potentially interested stakeholders. Despite
   concerns that reviews may be ignored, or that discussions will deadlock
   because too many uninformed stakeholders are involved, we find that this
   approach works well in practice. In this paper, we describe an empirical
   study to investigate the mechanisms and behaviours that developers use
   to find code changes they are competent to review. We also explore how
   stakeholders interact with one another during the review process. We
   manually examine hundreds of reviews across five high profile OSS
   projects. Our findings provide insights into the simple, community-wide
   techniques that developers use to effectively manage large quantities of
   reviews. The themes that emerge from our study are enriched and
   validated by interviewing long-serving core developers.},

Abstract = {Model-Driven Development (MDD) aims to increase productivity in software
   development and manage the complexity of software by utilizing modelling
   to shift from programming in solution-space to modelling in

   significant cost savings is to utilize Open Source (OS) components in
   software development. This paper presents the state of the art of how to
   combine MDD methods with OS software development. The approach is called
   Open Models software development which is expected to combine the
   benefits of both worlds. The fundamental idea of Open Models development
   is to apply community-driven collaborative MDD. In this paper, Open
   Models development is exemplified by constructing Resource Availability
   Service (RAS). RAS is a web service for providing availability
   information about resources such as services, content, users and
   terminals. This paper shows that Open Models development is feasible
   from technical point of view although there are still great challenges
   in tooling. In addition, more empirical research is needed in studying

Abstract = {In the field of software engineering, a very old and important issue is
   how to understand the software. Understanding software means more than
   understanding the source code; it also refers to the other facts related
   to that particular software. Sometimes even experienced developers can
   be overwhelmed by a project's extensive development capabilities. In the
   development process, project leaders (PLs) have overall knowledge about
   the project and are keenly aware of its vision. Other members have only
   partial knowledge of the functions assigned to them. In this research,
   we propose a model to design ontology to support software comprehension
   and handle issues of knowledge management throughout the development
   process. By applying our methodology, understanding software and
   managing knowledge can become possible in a systematic way for open
   source and commercial projects. Furthermore, it will help beginners
   become more involved in a project and contribute to it in a productive
   way.},

Abstract = {This paper focuses on the usage of open source information and software,
   and makes reference to the information entrepreneur and the growing
   demand associated with information services. The development of
   networked communities is highlighted and attention is given to the work
   of computer hacker groups. The problems facing law enforcement officers,
   intelligence and security officers, and corporate intelligence and
   security officers are referred to. Various arguments for
   counterintelligence are put forward and a pro-active approach to
   security work is advocated. The paper makes clear the fact that greater
   co-operation is needed between staff from both the public and private
   sectors, and makes the case for an effective intelligence and security
   monitoring system to be put in place.},

Title = {Antecedents of open source software adoption in health care
   organizations: A qualitative survey of experts in Canada},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MEDICAL INFORMATICS},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {82},
Number = {8},
Pages = {731-741},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Purpose: Open source software (OSS) adoption and use in health care
   organizations (HCOs) is relatively low in developed countries, but
   several contextual factors have recently encouraged the consideration of
   the possible role of OSS in information technology (IT) application
   portfolios. This article aims at developing a research model for
   investigating the antecedents of OSS adoption decisions in HCOs.
   Methods: Based on a conceptual framework derived from a synthesis of the
   literature on IT adoption in organizations, we conducted 18
   semi-structured interviews with IT experts from all levels of the
   Province of Quebec's health and social services sector in Canada. We
   also interviewed 10 IT suppliers in the province. A qualitative data
   analysis of the interviews was performed to identify major antecedents
   of OSS adoption decisions in HCOs.
   Results: Eight factors associated with three distinct theoretical
   perspectives influence OSS adoption. More specifically, they are
   associated with the classical diffusion of innovations theory, the
   theory of resources, as well as institutional theory and its spin-off,
   the organizing vision theory. The factors fall under three categories:
   the characteristics of OSS as an innovation, the characteristics of the
   HCO with respect to its ability to absorb OSS, and the characteristics
   of the external environment with respect to institutional pressures and
   public discourse surrounding OSS. We shed light on two novel factors
   that closely interact with each other: (1) interest of the health care
   community in the public discourse surrounding OSS, and (2) clarity,
   consistency and richness of this discourse, whether found in magazines
   or other media.
   Conclusions: OSS still raises many questions and presents several
   challenges for HCOs. It is crucial that the different factors that
   explain an HCO's decision on OSS adoption be considered simultaneously.
   Doing so allows a better understanding of HCOs' rationale when deciding
   to adopt, or not to adopt, OSS. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All

Abstract = {As institutions of Higher Education try to balance limited resources
   with the rising costs of technology, some institutions are turning to
   Open Source software for campus-wide applications such as course
   management systems and portals. The assumption is that Open Source will
   provide the flexibility to build pedagogically sound learning
   environments while increasing technology efficiencies. This paper
   outlines the current state of Open Source software deployment in US
   Higher Education based on a survey of 772 Chief Academic Officers and
   Chief Information Officers conducted in 2006. The results indicate that
   Carnegie classification is a critical differentiator of awareness,
   adoption, and perceptions of Open Source software applications, with
   perceived cost of ownership being the key driver of Open Source
   adoption. Moreover, the study shows that institutions have made little
   progress in the development of polices and procedures for Open Source
   regulatory compliance and security. The study serves as a baseline for
   future research into the conditions for successful use of Open Source
   for supporting integrated learning environments that deliver campus-wide

Abstract = {The changing conditions in which LAM institutions operate require
   constant monitoring of the development of solutions dedicated to
   different forms of their activities. This article aims at an analysis of
   the literature related to LAM institutions on open-source software used
   in digital curation. The undertaken research was an attempt to check the
   interest in this issue in publications registered in the BASE
   multi-search database. The research material collected during library
   searches was analysed using simple bibliometric methods. Based on
   literature analysis, this paper indicates a growing interest in digital
   curation in LAM institutions in the context of open-source software. The
   first publications on this subject recorded in the BASE database date
   back to 2005. Since then, the number of different publication types has
   been growing steadily, including in particular conference proceedings
   and journal articles. An increasing number of authors interested in
   digital curation associated with many institutions from around the world
   has also been recorded. The analysis of the material also allowed us to
   identify various applications available under open-source licences. The
   article provides an opportunity to look at the changes occurring in the
   analysed body of literature. It presents leading authors publishing
   works related to digital curation. It also identifies the most popular
   software described over 16 years. It provides a comprehensive
   description of topics and the structure of literature on open-source
   software used in digital curation. The described analysis results can be
   a contribution to in-depth research and a set of solutions for

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has attracted a lot of attention in the last
   decade. Due to the rising dominance of OSS in the software industry; not
   only practitioners, but researchers as well as academicians are also
   keen to understand the OSS development and evolution process. Several
   studies have been conducted in the past in this regard. Most of the
   existing work relates to growth analysis of OSS projects using source
   code level metrics. Lately, metrics related to change activity have also
   been included to understand OSS evolution. Change activity as recorded
   in Source Code Management (SCM) systems is used in a few cases. Most of
   the work deals with finding change size, and change effort
   distributions. A few studies do change profile analysis as OSS systems
   evolve. But that is restricted to a few of the change categories, e.g.,
   adaptive v/s non-adaptive changes, corrective v/s non-corrective
   changes. This research study explores change profiles of 106 OSS systems
   by extracting change type information from their SCM repositories and
   then categorizing these changes automatically into five different
   categories - corrective, adaptive, perfective, preventive, and
   enhancement related. The idea is to understand the way OSS projects
   undergo change through long periods of time. The results indicate that
   change behavior of the OSS projects is different for different types of
   changes.},

Abstract = {In the past year, 72\% of Internet users have looked online for health
   information, indicating a high demand for online health information.
   This project seeks to help satisfy that demand by analyzing health data
   and designing a web portal to support patient healthcare decisions. The
   portal is powered by SEMantic Open Source Software (SEMOSS), an
   end-to-end analytics tool. The project aims to adapt SEMOSS's
   capabilities to make healthcare data accessible to the patient
   population and healthcare stakeholders. To achieve this goal,
   publiclyavailable data about doctors in the state of Virginia and
   hospitals across the United States was gathered. Visualizations were
   created to answer potential patient questions about doctors, such as
   which nearby practitioner has the most experience. Data from the
   Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems
   (HCAHPS) survey, in conjunction with Census Bureau data, was explored.
   The census information facilitated classification of each hospital as
   urban or rural based on location. Multiple linear regression and random
   forest analysis were used to determine which elements of patient
   experience most influence whether a patient would recommend a hospital.
   Outputs from the multiple linear regression models indicated that of the
   statistically significant predictors, doctor communication and staff
   responsiveness most impacted recommendation scores in rural hospitals,
   and nurse communication and pain management were the most impactful for
   urban hospitals. Random forest analysis indicated that staff
   responsiveness and nurse communication were the most important variables
   in determining high or low recommendation scores for rural hospitals,
   and care transition and nurse communication were the most important
   variables for urban hospitals. These results will be used to create
   filtering options for the SEMOSS patient portal.},

Abstract = {Drawing on two case studies in the UK public sector our qualitative
   study explains how and why open source software has seen such a mixed
   response. Our narratives indicate that for both cases there was strong
   goodwill towards open source yet the trajectories of implementation
   differed widely. Drawing upon ideas of change(ing), mutability and
   materiality we unpack the process of adoption. The study shows that open
   source software has certain facets; code, community, coordination
   mechanisms, license and documentation. Each facet is not stable; indeed,
   it is changing and mutable. This creates possibilities, potential but
   also recalcitrance, and barriers. The interesting point of departure of
   our study is how open source software a much touted transparent and open
   phenomenon is by its nuanced and layered mutability able to make the
   process and practices surrounding it less visible. It concludes with
   clear policy recommendations developing from this research that could
   help to make open source adoption more sustainable in the public sector.

   devices. Our visualization application is based on an adaptation of
   WebGL open standard; the performed adaptation allows to import open
   standards and an interactive navigation of 3D models in ordinary web
   navigators with a good performance. The Visualization platform is
   scalable and can be applied to urban environments, provided open source
   files be used; CityGML is an open standard based on a geometry -driven
   Ontology which is compatible with this approach. We illustrate our
   results with examples concerning to very damaged churches and a urban
   district of Segovia (World Cultural Heritage). Their connection with
   appropriate database eases the building evolution and interventions
   tracking. We have incorporated some preliminary examples to illustrate
   Advanced Visualization Tools and architectural e-Learning software
   platform which have been created for assessing conservation and
   restoration tasks in very damaged buildings. First version of the
   Advanced Visualization application has been developed in the framework
   of ADISPA Spanish Project Results. Our results are illustrated with the

   Botswana and South Africa},
Journal = {LIBRARY HI TECH},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {28},
Number = {1},
Pages = {63-80},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to review use of open source
   software in the public sector in Botswana and South Africa. South Africa
   is Botswana's neighbor and both countries are leading economies in
   Africa.
   Design/methodology/approach - The paper draws on a survey that was
   carried out in information communication technology (ICT)-intensive
   government ministries in Botswana in May 2008. The study sought to
   establish availability of policy framework, level of usage of open
   source software, government support, motivations for implementing open
   source software in government, availability of skills, attitude of it
   managers in government toward open source software and challenges of
   open source software deployment in the public sector. The population of
   the study consisted of information technology (IT) managers who were
   purposively selected from ICT-intensive government ministries and
   interviewed. The study was extended to cover South Africa through review
   of literature on the same issues as those studied in Botswana.
   Findings - Compared with other countries in developed and developing
   countries including South Africa, there is limited use of open source
   software in the public sector in Botswana. However, IT managers in
   government of Botswana demonstrate a positive attitude toward open
   source software, and seem to have adequate understanding of its
   potential benefits. Comparatively, South African government provides
   support for harnessing open source software; awareness among top
   government officials is high and attitude toward open source software
   seems positive; skills are generally available and hardly any challenges
   of using open source software were identified.
   Research limitations/implications - This study was limited to
   purposively selected government ministries which are ICT-intensive in
   Botswana, while for South Africa, the study was based on secondary
   sources of data and focused on deployment of open source software in
   government agencies.
   Practical implications - Despite the increasing deployment of open
   source software in government across the world, the Botswanan government
   is yet unlikely to put in place an enabling open source software policy
   to harness the potential of the Software.
   Originality/value - Open source software deployment in government across
   the world is gaining momentum purportedly to enhance universal access,
   reduce costs associated with commercial software bridge the digital
   divide, grow indigenous IT skills, etc. Botswana and South Africa are
   the economic frontline states in Africa, and their leadership role in
   this matter among counterparts on the African continent is pertinent.},

Abstract = {Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) has gained a lot of attention
   lately allowing organizations to incorporate third party source code
   into their implementations. When open source software libraries are
   used, software resources may be linked directly or indirectly with
   multiple open source licenses giving rise to potential license
   incompatibilities. Adequate support in license use is vital in order to
   avoid such violations and address how diverse licenses should be
   handled. In the current work we investigate software licensing giving a
   critical and comparative overview of existing assistive approaches and
   tools. These approaches are centered on three main categories: license
   information identification from source code and binaries, software
   metadata stored in code repositories, and license modeling and
   associated reasoning actions. We also give a formalization of the
   license compatibility problem and demonstrate the role of existing
   approaches in license use decisions. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights

Abstract = {This paper presents a model to analyse the different outcomes generated
   by the application of Task-Technology Fit (TTF) theory to economic and
   financial information management in university departments. This model
   extends that proposed by Goodhue (1995), in two ways: (i) a key role is
   played by the manager in designing the technology and in performing the
   task in question. Both of these aspects can be modified, depending on
   the evaluation made of a series of characteristics (or dimensions)
   inherent to the model. (ii) The free dissemination of the source code of
   the application not only allows the transfer of knowledge, but also
   creates virtual communities which, through collaborative work and the
   exchange of experiences, can achieve a better fit of the technology to
   the task at hand. This model has been introduced in several departments
   at the University of Granada (Spain), and evaluated in terms of the

   general public as well as by different types of organizations, has
   increased manifold over the past decade or so. In spite of the ubiquity

Abstract = {This article describes an update of POLYS, the POLYSaccharide builder,
   for generating three-dimensional structures of polysaccharides and
   complex carbohydrates (Engelsen et al., Biopolymers 1996, 39, 417-433).
   POLYS is written in portable ANSI C and is now released under an open
   source license. Using this software, complex branched carbohydrate
   structures and polysaccharides can be constructed from their primary
   structure and the relevant monosaccharides stored in database containing
   information on optimized glycosidic linkage geometries. The constructed
   three-dimensional structures are described as Cartesian coordinate files
   which can be used as input to other molecular modeling software. The new
   version of POLYS includes a large database of monosaccharides and a
   helical generator to build and optimize regular single helix or double
   helix structures. To demonstrate the efficiency of POLYS to build
   carbohydrate structures, four examples of increasing complexity are
   presented in the manuscript, from simple alpha glucans over complex
   starch fragments and the double helical structure of amylopectin to the
   mega-oligosaccharide RhamnoGalacturonan II. (c) 2013 Wiley Periodicals,

Abstract = {The era of the PC platform left a legacy of competitive strategies for
   the future technologies to follow. However, this notion became more
   complicated, once the future grew out to be a present with huge bundle
   of innovative technologies, Internet capabilities, communication
   possibilities, and ease in life. A major step of moving from a product
   phone to a smart phone, eventually to a mobile device has created a new
   industry with humongous potential for further developments. The current
   mobile platform market is witnessing a platforms-war with big players
   such as Apple, Google, Nokia and Microsoft in a major role. An important
   aspect of today's mobile platform market is the contributions made
   through open source initiatives which promote innovation. This paper
   gives an insight into the open-source software strategies of the leading
   players and its implications on the market. It first gives a precise
   overview of the past leading to the current mobile platform market share
   state. Then it briefs about the open-source software components used and
   released by Apple, Google and Nokia platforms, leading to their mobile
   platform strategies with regard to open source. Finally, the paper
   assesses the situation from the point of view of communities of software
   developers complementing each platform. The authors identified relevant
   implications of the open-source phenomenon in the mobile-industry.},

Title = {Reusability of open source software across domains: A case study},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {134},
Pages = {211-227},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Exploiting the enormous amount of open source software (OSS) as a
   vehicle for reuse is a promising opportunity for software engineers.
   However, this task is far from trivial, since such projects are
   sometimes not easy to understand and adapt to target systems, whereas at
   the same time the reusable assets are not obvious to identify. In this
   study, we assess open source software projects, with respect to their
   reusability, i.e., the easiness to adapt them in a new system. By taking
   into account that domain-specific reuse is more beneficial than
   domain-agnostic; we focus this study on identifying the application
   domains that contain the most reusable software projects. To achieve
   this goal, we compared the reusability of approximately 600 OSS projects
   from ten application domains through a case study. The results of the
   study suggested that in every aspect of reusability, there are different
   dominant application domains. However, Science and Engineering
   Applications and Software Development Tools, have proven to be the ones
   that are the most reuse-friendly. Based on this observation, we suggest
   software engineers, who are focusing on the specific application
   domains, to consider reusing assets from open source software projects.

Abstract = {Model Driven Development (MDD) is widely used in the embedded systems
   domain, and many proprietary and Open Source tools exist that support
   MDD. The potential for sustainability of such tools needs to assessed
   prior to any organisational adoption. In this paper we report from a
   case study conducted in a consultancy company context aiming to
   investigate Open Source tools for MDD. For the company it was
   interesting to explore the two Open Source modelling tools Topcased and
   Papyrus for potential adoption. The focus for our case study is on
   assessing the health of the ecosystems for the two investigated Open
   Source projects by means of quantitative analysis of publically
   available data sources about Open Source projects. The health of
   ecosystems is an important prerequisite for a long term sustainable OSS
   (Open Source Software) tool-chain in the MDD area, which can aid
   strategic decision making for potential adoption within a company
   context. We have established details on the extent to which developers
   and users are active in two specific OSS ecosystems, and identified
   organisational influence for both ecosystems. We find that the
   investigated tools are promising regarding the health of their
   ecosystems, and a natural next step for the company would be to proceed
   with a pilot study in order to analyse the effectiveness of the
   investigated tools in company contexts.},

Title = {Freedom Imagined: Morality and Aesthetics in Open Source Software Design},
Journal = {ETHNOS},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {74},
Number = {1},
Pages = {51-71},
Abstract = {This paper is about the interaction between the human imagination and
   technology among a self-described `community': that of developers of
   Free or Open Source Software. I argue that the moral imagination
   observable in this phenomenon can be understood with reference to its
   emergence around specific methods of technical production. Principles of
   openness, truth, freedom and progress, which are also understood as
   central to the technical production of good software, are reinforced (as
   a ethical orientation) by their contribution to making `good' software.
   A reciprocal dynamic ensues in which better software is seen as
   dependent on particular social practices and ideologies while these
   practices and ideologies are given salience by their success in
   fostering valuable production. Processes key to the generation of this
   social form are examined before a number of key features of the practice
   of programming, such as its often combative and individualistic
   character, and an absence of women in developer communities, are
   considered in the light of the analysis.},

Journal = {INFORMATION SYSTEMS JOURNAL},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {30},
Number = {2},
Pages = {369-402},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Corporations increasingly engage with open source software communities
   in the co-creation of software. This collaboration between corporate
   professionals and open source software community members is strikingly
   different from the early days of software development where for-profit
   firms attempted to dominate and control the industry while attempting to
   throttle the success of independent developers offering an alternative,
   open source option. While many metaphors like trading zones, common pool
   resources and ecosystems have helped understand the phenomenon, the
   metaphors do not portray what the industry was like before and after the
   transition. We adopt a postcolonial metaphor as an analytical lens to
   examine such collaboration based on qualitative data gathered over three
   years from executives, managers and developers within corporations that
   engage in open source software development. Drawing on these insights,
   we then theorize a ``Third Design Space,{''} based on the concept of the
   third space proposed by Bhabha. This metaphor encourages the cultivation
   of a new design environment, creation of new design associations and
   circulation of shared design resources. Together these practices and
   behaviours make it possible to nurture innovative methods and new
   rituals for designing software with results and methods that represent a
   distinct departure from the competitive and proprietary past, even
   creating innovative artefacts that could not have been created without
   the Third Design Space.},

   topological phase of a given material by calculating the Wilson loop,
   and can get the surface state spectrum, which is detected by angle
   resolved photoemission (ARPES) and in scanning tunneling microscopy
   (STM) experiments. It also identifies positions of Weyl/Dirac points and
   nodal line structures, calculates the Berry phase around a closed
   momentum loop and Berry curvature in a part of the Brillouin zone (BZ).

Volume = {65},

Abstract = {Despite the best intentions of software architects, it is often the case
   that individual developers do not faithfully implement the original
   security design decisions. Such a scenario sometimes leads to a
   situation in which while an architect claims the use of a secure
   architecture in the form of some tactic, the corresponding source code
   does not support the claim. To bridge this gap, the first critical step
   is to verify whether the source code reflects at least some of the
   structural or behavioral features required for a tactic. In this study,
   we examine the extent of this discrepancy between an architect's vision
   of what security tactics need to be adopted in the software and the
   actual implementation. We accomplish this research goal by 1) exploring
   an architect's intention to use security tactics, 2) checking whether
   the tactic is manifested in the design, and finally 3) recovering the
   evidence of efforts to implement the design in the source code. To avoid
   limitations to accessing documentation and source code, we use open
   source projects to conduct our research.},

   more than the movements of the user's hands, thus allowing them to be
   free from all hardware while interfacing, and making the system surpass
   in its simplicity other systems that include held or touched interfaces.
   It utilizes the Kinect sensor's image input parts (IR projector and IR
   camera) for computer vision along with an open source software called
   Processing for reception and analysis of input data to decision making
   on what actions and steps to perform, and even for communicating with
   the database. A MySQL database will be responsible for holding the
   information of the system and to handle them (adding, deleting,
   retrieving, etc..). Even though the system will be designed for a
   library to display information about the books available in it, however
   the proposed system design will be broad enough to allow its
   implementation in many other domains, making people's lives more
   efficient and innovative. Implementation steps are listed along with a
   detailed explanation of how the system works. The simulation results
   showing the system performance in different environment conditions and

   is not the case with OSS. Firstly, the OSS community developed the
   institutional innovation of OSS licenses enabling OSS software to
   survive as a common property. Secondly, these licenses are mainly
   enforced by pro-socially motivated contributors. We characterize the
   conditions under which OSS communities develop and sustain pro-social
   commitments. We point out the vulnerability of these conditions to
   developments in patent legislation. (c) 2007 Published by Elsevier B.V.},

Title = {How are decisions made in open source software communities? - Uncovering
   rationale from python email repositories},

Abstract = {Group decision-making (GDM) processes shape the evolution of open source
   software (OSS) products, thus playing an important role in the
   governance of open source software communities. While these GDM
   processes have attracted the attention of researchers, the rationale
   behind decisions, that is, how decisions are made that enhance the OSS,
   have not received much attention. This work bridges this gap by
   extracting these rationales from a large open source repository
   comprising 1.55 million emails available in Python development archives.
   This work makes a methodological contribution by presenting a
   heuristics-based rationale extraction system called Rationale Miner that
   employs information retrieval, natural language processing, and
   heuristics-based techniques. Using these techniques, it extracts the
   rationale behind specific decisions (for example, whether a new module
   was added based on core developer consensus or a benevolent dictator's
   pronouncement). This work unearths 11 such rationales behind decisions
   in the Python community and thus makes a knowledge contribution. It also
   analyzes the prevalence of these rationales across all PEPs and three
   sub-types of PEPs: Process, Informational, and Standard Track PEPs. The
   effectiveness of our contributions has been positively evaluated using
   quantitative and qualitative approaches (e.g., comparison against
   baselines for rationale identification showed up to 47\% improvement in
   the most conservative case, and feedback from the Python steering
   committee showed the accurate identification of rationales
   respectively). The approach proposed in this work can be used and
   extended to discover the rationale behind decisions that remain hidden
   in communication repositories of other OSS projects, which will make the
   decision-making (DM) process transparent to stakeholders and encourage
   decision-makers to be more accountable.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has become an important environment where
   developers can create, exchange, and improve reusable software assets by
   collaborating with other developers. Although developers may find useful
   software assets to reuse from OSS for their projects, they usually
   experience difficulties in solving problems that occur while integrating
   the assets to their own software. We investigated data from major open
   source environments such as Sourceforge. net and GitHub, and learned
   that there is a common pattern of solving reuse-related problems in OSS.
   To analyze the pattern in detail, we have developed an ontological model
   to formally represent the symptoms and causes of the reuse-related
   problems, and the correlations between them. Based on this model, we
   collected data from Sourceforge. net, and built a knowledge base for the
   most common problem type. We extracted the core types of symptoms and
   causes for the problem type and calculated the number of correlations
   between the types of symptoms and causes. We found that there exist
   correlations between the symptoms and causes that are extracted from the
   discussion threads for the problem type, and about 60\% of them are
   statistically significant. We also conducted a study to understand the
   effective timing of recommending solutions to the developers by
   analyzing the recall rates of finding the causes of the problems in a
   timeline. We figured that most of the important causes of a problem are
   discussed at the beginning of the forum discussion. This leads us to the
   conclusion that recommending the causes of a problem early by using our
   knowledge framework may help developers spend less amount of time to
   solve the problem (around 50\% less time than solving the problem
   without using our framework).},

Abstract = {Since their introduction in 1994 the Martin's metrics became popular in
   assessing object-oriented software architectures. While one of the
   Martin metrics, normalised distance from the main sequence D-n, has been
   originally designed with assessing individual packages, it has also been
   applied to assess quality of entire software architectures. The approach
   itself, however, has never been studied.
   In this paper we take the first step to formalising the Debased
   architecture assessment of Java Open Source software. We present two
   aggregate measures: average normalised distance from the train sequence
   D, and parameter of the fitted statistical model a. Applying these
   measures to a carefully selected collection of benchmarks we obtain a
   set of reference values that can be used to assess quality of a system
   architecture. Furthermore, we show that applying the same measures to
   different versions of the same system provides valuable insights in
   system architecture evolution.},

Abstract = {This article adopts a feminist perspective to examine masculine work
   culture in the development of free/libre open source software. The
   authors draw on a case study of the Heidi bug' discovered during the
   development of the Mozilla Firefox web browser to examine how gendered
   talk' was (en)-acted to facilitate bricolage' in an online work
   environment. Such gendered talks contain cultural references familiar to
   male developers. Though seemingly innocuous, such acts could be seen as
   a performance of gender that simply reflects the hegemonic heterosexual
   masculine culture manifested in an online virtual work space. The
   virtual work space therefore can be exclusive to those who shared the
   cultural references. Although it may not necessarily be ignorance or
   insensitivity of male developers, a more gender-balanced, women-friendly
   and inclusive workplace certainly would benefit from a more diverse
   environment. This article highlights the gendered aspect of software
   development through examining the language use and mainstream bricolage'
   practice, and establishes a compelling ground for enlarging the talent
   pool to include more women and integrating gender ethics (e.g., raising
   awareness of sensitive language and design approaches) into computer
   ethics education.},

Abstract = {A nonproprietary software package, ``PyMca{''}, primarily developed for
   X-ray fluorescence analysis offers an easy-to-use interface for
   calculating maps, by integrating intensity (of X-ray fluorescence, as
   well as any spectral data) over Regions Of Interest (ROT), by performing
   per pixel operations or by applying multivariate analysis. Here we show
   that, while initially developed to analyze hyperspectral two-dimensional
   (spatial) maps, this tool can be beneficial as well to anyone interested
   in measuring spectral variations over one or two dimensions, these
   dimensions being time, temperature, and so on. Different possibilities
   offered by the software (preprocessing, simultaneous analysis of
   replicas, of different conditions, ROT calculation, multivariate
   analysis, determination of reaction rate constant and of Arrhenius plot)
   are illustrated with two examples. The first example is the Fourier
   transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) follow-up of the saponification
   of oil by lead compounds. The disappearance of reagent (oil) and
   formation of products (lead carboxylates and glycerol) can be easily
   followed and quantified. The second example is a combined extended X-ray
   absorption fine structure (EXAFS), diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier
   transform spectroscopy (DRIFT), and mass spectroscopy (MS) analysis of
   RhAl2O3 catalyst under NO reduction by CO in the presence of O-2. It is
   possible to appreciate, in a single shot, Rh particles' structure and
   surface changes and gas release and adsorption in the reaction
   conditions.},

Abstract = {This paper aims to validate the mission-critical OSS (open-source

   primary mission-critical OSS adoption constructs and three second-order
   (technological, organizational, and environmental). Although nomological
   validity was affirmed, the empirical findings show the absence of
   multicollinearity. This study will give organizations in critical
   industries enough information to understand the importance and weight of
   each component/factor of the mission-critical OSS adoption model. The
   coefficient of determination R-2 exceeds the minimum threshold (0.750),
   and all the hypotheses are significant. This study also contributed to
   the existing literature by identifying those factors that influence
   mission-critical OSS adoption, allowing firms in critical sectors to
   better understand their mission-critical OSS adoption issues.
   Cross-cultural validation across a broad community is proposed to
   increase the validity and generalization of the sample scales.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) licenses regulate the conditions under which
   users can reuse, modify, and distribute the software legally. However,
   there exist various OSS licenses in the community, written in a formal
   language, which are typically long and complicated to understand. In
   this paper, we conducted a 661-participants online survey to investigate
   the perspectives and practices of developers towards OSS licenses. The
   user study revealed an indeed need for an automated tool to facilitate
   license understanding. Motivated by the user study and the fast growth
   of licenses in the community, we propose the first study towards
   automated license summarization. Specifically, we released the first
   high quality text summarization dataset and designed two tasks, i.e.,
   license text summarization (LTS), aiming at generating a relatively
   short summary for an arbitrary license, and license term classification
   (LTC), focusing on the attitude inference towards a predefined set of
   key license terms (e.g., Distribute). Aiming at the two tasks, we
   present LiSum, a multi-task learning method to help developers overcome
   the obstacles of understanding OSS licenses. Comprehensive experiments
   demonstrated that the proposed jointly training objective boosted the
   performance on both tasks, surpassing state-of-the-art baselines with
   gains of at least 5 points w.r.t. F1 scores of four summarization
   metrics and achieving 95.13\% micro average F1 score for classification
   simultaneously. We released all the datasets, the replication package,
   and the questionnaires for the community.},

Abstract = {Organizations exist because they provide additional production gains, in
   comparison to horizontal ways of allocating resources, such as markets
   (Coase, 1937), and the open source movement is deemed to be a new kind
   of peer-production organization somehow in between hierarchically
   organized firms and markets (Benkler, 2002). However, to strive as a new
   kind of organization, open source must provide production gains, which
   in turn should be measurable. The open source movement is particularly
   interesting to study for this reason. Here, we confront and discuss two
   contrasting views, which were reported in the literature recently. On
   the one hand, Sornette et al. (2014) uncovered a superlinear production
   mechanism, which quantifies Aristotle adage: ``the whole is more than
   the sum of its parts{''}. On the other hand, Scholtes et al. (2016)
   found opposite results, and referred to Maximilien Ringelmann, a French
   agricultural engineer (1861-1931), who discovered the tendency for
   individual members of a group to become increasingly less productive as
   the size of their group increases (Ringelmann, 1913). Since Ringelmann,
   the topic of collective intelligence has interested numbers of
   researchers in social sciences and social psychology (Woolley et al.,
   2010), as well as practitioners in management aiming at improving the
   performance of their team (Woolley et al., 2015). In most research and
   practice case studies, the Ringelmann effect has been found to hold,
   while, in contrast, the superlinear effect found by Sornette et al. is
   novel and may challenge common wisdom (Sornette et al., 2014). Here, we
   compare these two theories, weigh their strengths and weaknesses, and

Abstract = {Many developing countries around the world are frequently confronted
   with a dual challenge of simultaneously developing IT infrastructure and
   implementing software solutions. Some countries have successfully
   created extensive information technology infrastructures, yet software
   use continues to be reliant on pirated sources. The experiences of
   licensing regulation violations and increasing virus attacks indicate
   that part of the problem is a consequence of dependencies created by the
   use of proprietary software within resourcescarce economies. Recent
   growth in the use of free and open-source software (FOSS) by various
   public-and private-sector agencies suggests an alternative path to
   software self-suffciency for a resource-scarce country like Cuba. There
   is, however, an interesting background to current software use within
   Cuba that makes it unique among several less-developed countries. Apart
   from the well-known advantages, FOSS use could be essential to shape the
   future scenario of Cuba. The present paper first delineates some of the
   Cuban background, basically characterized by lack of freedom in
   technology ownership and access to external information. The potential
   of FOSS use within existing conditions in Cuba is then analyzed.
   Finally, conclusions are provided on the basis of a survey carried out
   in Cuba, arguing that there needs to be stronger political will to
   reduce gaps between goals and implementation reality to achieve
   intrinsic advantages of FOSS use successfully.},

Year = {2008},
Number = {10},
Pages = {23-43},
Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {The paper discusses a trend in the development of computer software
   known as ``strategic forking.{''} This trend is an intrinsic feature of
   today's ``open-source community,{''} according to Konat.
   To begin with, the article defines the term ``source code{''} in
   reference to software{''} and it also explains the terms ``open
   source{''} and ``free software.{''} Moreover, it introduces the
   definition of Free/Open-Source Software (FOSS). In the following part of
   the article, Konat offers a microeconomic analysis of ``strategic
   forking{''} to determine the motives guiding software engineers taking
   part in FOSS projects. The problem is discussed from the perspective of
   the theory of public goods, the demand-side approach to innovation, and
   other theories concerned with issues such as ``hackers' ethic{''} and
   ``ego boosting.{''} Konat pays special attention to describing the
   ``strategic forking{''} phenomenon with the use of classical
   microeconomic and enterprise theory tools developed by researchers Jean
   Tirole and Josh Lerner.
   The author follows up with a comprehensive analysis of strategic forking
   as a key to explaining a fundamental discrepancy in the assessment of
   the motives that guide programmers taking part in the development of
   open-source software. The analysis focuses on the definition of
   strategic forking, the conditions determining this trend and its direct
   causes. Konat also looks at the implications of strategic forking and
   the factors due to which this approach has not become more widespread
   around the world.
   The article closes with a review of issues that require further
   analysis, according to Konat. These include the issue of software
   distribution.},

Abstract = {Federated learning (FL) enables training models at different sites and
   updating the weights from the training instead of transferring data to a
   central location and training as in classical machine learning. The FL
   capability is especially important to domains such as biomedicine and
   smart grid, where data may not be shared freely or stored at a central
   location because of policy regulations. Thanks to the capability of
   learning from decentralized datasets, FL is now a rapidly growing
   research field, and numerous FL frameworks have been developed. In this
   work we introduce APPFL, the Argonne Privacy-Preserving Federated
   Learning framework. APPFL allows users to leverage implemented
   privacy-preserving algorithms, implement new algorithms, and simulate
   and deploy various FL algorithms with privacy-preserving techniques. The
   modular framework enables users to customize the components for
   algorithms, privacy, communication protocols, neural network models, and
   user data. We also present a new communication-efficient algorithm based
   on an inexact alternating direction method of multipliers. The algorithm
   requires significantly less communication between the server and the
   clients than does the current state of the art. We demonstrate the
   computational capabilities of APPFL, including differentially private FL
   on various test datasets and its scalability, by using multiple
   algorithms and datasets on different computing environments.},

Abstract = {The Open Source Software (OSS) Innovation process is no more a foreign
   face in the software development community as it is increasingly being
   used as a platform for modern software innovation both in the commercial
   and software research community. Although the concept of freedom is
   mostly prominent with the OSS innovation process, less than 2\% of the
   contributors are women in this male-dominated area. Minorities,
   including women, are often ignored in its process. This paper presents
   the case of lack of participation from women in the OSS innovation
   process. Lack of participation and contributions from women in OSS
   innovation creates an imbalanced population in the OSS-based knowledge
   demography and an unbalanced proportion of gender distribution. Based on
   a comprehensive review, this paper aims to suggest a
   Constructivist-Technofeminist-OSS Innovation Process framework for
   understanding female contributions in OSS innovation, not only from a
   singular point of technical view, but also from social constructivist
   and feminist perspectives.},

   as academia (e.g, Moodle, Greenfoot, and Drupal). OSS projects have a
   culture built on volunteer participation to support software
   development. Computing degree programs desire to involve students in
   large-scale software projects to provide students with real-world
   experience and an understanding of the issues found in large, complex
   software projects. Involving computing students in OSS projects serves
   both the OSS community by providing development resources for the
   project while also serving the academic community by providing access to
   large software projects in which students can gain experience. However,
   the marriage of student and OSS project presents some challenges
   including identification of approachable OSS projects, creation of
   appropriate educational infrastructure, evaluation and grading, and
   more. Panelists will address the factors that contribute to student
   success in an OSS project.},

Abstract = {Optophysiological imaging methods can be used to record the activity in
   vivo of groups of neurons from particular areas of the nervous system
   (e.g. the brain) or of cell cultures. Such methods are used, for
   example, in the spatio-temporal coding and processing of sensory
   information. However, the data generated by optophysiological methods
   must be processed carefully if relevant results are to be obtained. The
   raw fluorescence data must be digitally filtered and analyzed
   appropriately to obtain activity maps and fluorescence time course for
   single spots. We used a Matlab (R) environment to implement the
   necessary procedures in a user-friendly manner. We developed OpenFluo, a
   program for people inexperienced in optophysiological methods and for
   advanced users wishing to perform simple, rapid data analyses without
   the need for complex, time-consuming programming procedures. This
   program will be made available as stand-alone software and as an
   open-source Matlab (R) tool. It will therefore be possible for
   experienced users to integrate their own routines. We validated this
   software by assessing its ability to process both artificial recordings
   and real biological data corresponding to recordings of the honeybee
   brain. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

   firm-sponsored developers may face identification conflicts arising from
   different social norms and beliefs inherent in both the organizational
   culture of their employing company and dominant OSS cultures. These
   conflicts may induce developer turnover intention towards the
   organization and the OSS community. This research seeks to identify
   identification-related determinants that drive turnover intention by
   surveying Linux kernel developers (N = 321). This study finds, among
   others, that perceived external reputation of the employing organization
   reduces turnover intention towards the company while perceived own

Journal = {INFORMATION SYSTEMS RESEARCH},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {24},
Number = {3},
Pages = {539-560},

Abstract = {Existing research provides little insight into how social influence
   affects the adoption and diffusion of competing innovative artifacts and
   how the experiences of organizational members who have worked with
   particular innovations in their previous employers affect their current
   organizations' adoption decision. We adapt and extend the heterogeneous
   diffusion model from sociology and examine the conditions under which
   prior adopters of competing open source software (OSS) licenses socially
   influence how a new OSS project chooses among such licenses and how the
   experiences of the project manager of a new OSS project with particular
   licenses affects its susceptibility to this social influence. We test
   our predictions using a sample of 5,307 open source projects hosted at
   SourceForge. Our results suggest the most important factor determining a
   new project's license choice is the type of license chosen by existing
   projects that are socially closer to it in its inter-project social
   network. Moreover, we find that prior adopters of a particular license
   are more infectious in their influence on the license choice of a new
   project as their size and performance rankings increase. We also find
   that managers of new projects who have been members of more successful
   prior OSS projects and who have greater depth and diversity, of
   experience in the OSS community are less susceptible to social
   influence. Finally, we find a project manager is more likely to adopt a
   particular license type when his or her project occupies a similar
   social role as other projects that have adopted the same license. These
   results have implications for research on innovation adoption and
   diffusion, open source software licensing, and the governance of
   economic exchange.},

Abstract = {So far, the relationship between open science and software engineering
   expertise has largely focused on the open release of software
   engineering research insights and reproducible artifacts, in the form of
   open-access papers, open data, and open-source tools and libraries. In
   this position paper, we draw attention to another perspective:
   scientific insight itself is a complex and collaborative artifact under
   continuous development and in need of continuous quality assurance, and
   as such, has many parallels to software artifacts. Considering current
   calls for more open, collaborative and reproducible science; increasing
   demands for public accountability on matters of scientific integrity and
   credibility; methodological challenges coming with transdisciplinary
   science; political and communication tensions when scientific insight on
   societally relevant topics is to be translated to policy; and struggles
   to incentivize and reward academics who truly want to move into these
   directions beyond traditional publishing habits and cultures, we make
   the parallels between the emerging open science requirements and
   concepts already well-known in (open-source) software engineering
   research more explicit. We argue that the societal impact of software
   engineering expertise can reach far beyond the software engineering
   research community, and call upon the community members to proactively
   help driving the necessary systems and cultural changes towards more
   open and accountable research.},

Abstract = {A new software for modeling pathological speech signals is presented in
   this paper The software is called NeuroSpeech This software enables the
   analysis of pathological speech signals considering different speech
   dimensions phonation, articulation, prosody, and intelligibility All the
   methods considered in the software have been validated in previous
   experiments and publications The current version of NeuroSpeech was
   developed to model dysarthric speech signals from people with
   Parkinson's disease, however, the structure of the software allows other
   computer scientists or developers to include other pathologies and/or
   other measures in order to complement the existing options Three
   different tasks can be performed with the current version of the
   software (1) the modeling of the speech recordings considering the
   aforementioned speech dimensions, (2) the automatic discrimination of
   Parkinson's vs non-Parkinson's speech signals (if the user has access to
   recordings of other pathologies, he/she can retrain the system to
   perform the detection of other diseases), and (3) the prediction of the
   neurological state of the patient according to the Unified Parkinson's
   Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) score The prediction of the dysarthria
   level according to the Frenchay Dysarthria Assessment scale is also
   provided (the user can also train the system to perform the prediction
   of other kind of scales or degrees of severity)
   To the best of our knowledge, this is the first software with the
   characteristics described above, and we consider that it will help other
   researchers to contribute to the state-of-the-art in pathological speech
   assessment from different perspectives, e.g., from the clinical point of
   view for interpretation, and from the computer science point of view
   enabling the test of different measures and pattern recognition

Abstract = {There exists two types of developers in Open Source Software (OSS)
   projects: 1) Committers who have permission to commit edited source code
   to the Version Control System (VCS), 2) Developers who contribute source
   code but cannot commit to the VCS directly. In order to develop and
   evolve high quality OSS, projects are always in search of new
   committers. OSS projects often promote strong developers to become
   committers. When existing committers find strong developers, they
   propose their promotion to a committer role. Delaying the
   committer-promotion might lead to strong developers departing from an
   OSS project and the project losing them. However early
   committer-promotion comes with its own slew of risks as well (e.g., the
   promotion of inexperienced developers). Hence, committer-promotion
   decisions are critical for the quality and successful evolution of OSS
   projects. In this paper, we examine the committer-promotion phenomena
   for two OSS projects (Eclipse and Firefox). We find that the amount of
   activities by future committers was higher than the amount of activities
   by developers who did not become committers). We also find that some
   developers are promoted to a committer role very rapidly (within a few
   month) while some of developers take over one year to become a
   committer. Finally, we develop a committer-identification model to
   assist OSS projects identifying future committers.},

Abstract = {Rework Management in software development is a challenging and complex
   issue. Defined as the effort spent to re-do some work, rework implies
   big costs given the fact that the time spent on rework does not count to
   the improvement of the project. Predicting and controlling rework causes
   is a valuable asset for companies, which maintain closed policies on
   choosing team members and assigning activities to developers. However, a
   trending growth in development consists in Open Source Software (OSS)
   projects. This is a totally new and diverse environment, in the sense
   that not only the projects but also their resources, e.g., developers
   change dynamically. There is no guarantee that developers will follow
   the same methodologies and quality policies as in a traditional and
   closed project. In such world, identifying rework causes is a necessary
   step to reduce project costs and to help project managers to better
   define their strategies. We observed that in real OSS projects there are
   no fixed team, but instead, developers assume some kind of auction in
   which the activities are assigned to the most interested and less-cost
   developer. This lead us to think that a more complex auctioning
   mechanism should not only model the task allocation problem, but also
   consider some other factors related to rework causes. By doing this, we
   could optimise the task allocation, improving the development of the
   project and reducing rework. In this paper we presented MAESTROS, a
   Multi-Agent System that implements an auction mechanism for simulating
   task allocation in OSS. Experiments were conducted to measure costs and
   rework with different project characteristics. We analysed the impact of
   introducing a Q-learning reinforcement algorithm on reducing costs and
   rework. Our findings correspond to a reduction of 31\% in costs and 11\%
   in rework when compared with the simple approach. Improvements to
   MAESTROS include real projects data analysis and a real-time mechanism
   to support Project Management decisions.},

   been considered as a centralized, collocated, and phase-specific
   process. However, in open-source software (OSS) development environment,
   the core RE activities are iterative and dynamic and follow a rather
   decentralized software engineering paradigm. This crosscutting
   characteristic of open-source RE can be conceptualized using the ``Twin
   Peaks{''} model that weaves RE together with software architecture.
   Although many weaving mechanisms have been proposed in recent years,
   lack of theoretical underpinning limits a mechanism's applicability and
   usefulness in different scenarios. In this research proposal, we
   hypothesize stakeholders' social interaction as an ecologically valid
   weaving mechanism of the ``Twin Peaks{''} in open-source RE. We further
   outline a concrete research plan to examine the generalizability of this
   weaving mechanism for three activities: requirements identification,
   requirements implementation, and creativity in RE. Carrying out this
   research plan will enable us to gain valuable insights to generate
   guidelines for enhancing software engineering practice in relevant

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) cannot exist without contributions from the
   community. In particular, long-term contributors (LTCs) (e.g.,
   committer), defined as contributors who spend at least one year on OSS
   projects, play crucial role in a project success because they would have
   permission to add (commit) code changes to a project's version control
   system, and to become a mentor for a beginner in OSS projects. However,
   contributors often leave a project before becoming a LTC because most
   contributors are volunteers. If contributors are motivated in their work
   in OSS projects, they might not leave the projects. In this study, we
   examine the phenomena involved in becoming a LTC in terms of motivation
   to continue in OSS projects. In particular, our target motivation is to
   understand what is involved in long-term contribution with other expert
   contributors. We study classifier to identify a LTC who will contribute
   patch submissions for more than one year based on collaboration in terms
   of the code review process. In detail, we analyze what review feedbacks
   encourage a contributor to continue with OSS project. Using a Qt project

   which mechanisms of coordination are responsible for limiting divergence
   in OSS. Two cases are examined: Java and Linux.
   A systematic difference seems to exist between the mechanisms identified
   in the two communities. With respect to Java, divergence is where
   possible avoided ex ante, whereas for Linux divergence is foremost
   reduced ex post. The conclusion discusses this difference and the
   implications of both types of coordination in respect to
   interoperability. (c) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {The community-based open source software (OSS) development model has
   emerged as a viable alternative to firm-based traditional software
   development. The naturally evolving structure of collaborative
   relationships among software developers is a major distinction between
   the OSS development model and the traditional development model.
   Conventional statistical methods that focus on individual cases and
   their attributes cannot properly inform the management of the naturally
   evolving collaborative relationships in open source project. We
   emphasize social network analysis as a method especially suitable for
   management of open source development projects, because it focuses on
   relations among individuals rather than attributes of individual cases.
   We show how open source development can be represented as a
   collaboration network graph and how the network can be characterized by
   various network structure metrics. We present four metrics as a starting
   point size, centralization, density and clusterness; that are most
   useful in revealing collaborative relationships in OSS development
   process. We discuss how to generate collaboration network for OSS
   projects and how to calculate the metrics. We further describe how these
   metrics can assist in effective management of open source software
   development process. We conclude by presenting preliminary empirical
   evidence in support of the metrics.},

Abstract = {The use of open-source software in many institutions and organizations
   is increasing. However, a balance should be considered between the
   software cost and the cost of its technical support and reliability. In
   this article, a maintenance system for wind farms will be presented. It
   is connected to an information system for maintenance, called SNIFF
   (Terology Integrated Modular System) as a general base to manage the
   assets and as a support strategic line to the evolution of this system,
   which incorporates on-condition maintenance modules, and the support to
   the research and development done around this theme. The SMIT system is
   based on a TCP/IP network, using a Linux server running a PostgreSQL
   database and Apache web server with PHP, and Octave and R software for
   numerical analysis. Maintenance technicians, chiefs, economic and
   production management personnel can access SMIT database through SMIT
   clients for Windows. In addition, this maintenance system for wind
   systems uses also special low cost hardware for data acquisition on
   floor level. The hardware uses a distributed TCP/IP network to
   synchronize SMIT server master clock through Precision Time Protocol.
   Usually, the manufactures construct, deploy and give the means for the
   suppliers to perform the wind system's maintenance. This is a very
   competitive area, where companies tend to hide the development details
   and implementations. Within this scenario, the development of
   maintenance management models for multiple wind equipments is important,
   and will allow countries to be more competitive in a growing market. For
   on-condition monitoring, the algorithms are based on Support Vector
   Machines and time series analysis running under Octave and R open-source
   software's.},

Abstract = {Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) has become the fundamental
   infrastructure of mainstream software projects. FOSS is subject to
   various legal terms and restrictions, depending on the type of open
   source license in force. Hence it is important to remain compliant with
   the FOSS license terms. Identifying the licenses that provide FOSS and
   understanding the terms of those licenses is not easy, especially when
   dealing with a large amount of reuse that is common in modern software
   development. Since reused software is often large, automated license
   analysis is needed to address these issues and support users in license
   compliant reuse of FOSS. However, existing license assessment tools can
   only identify the name and quantity of licenses embedded in software and
   thus cannot identify whether the licenses are being used safely and
   correctly. Moreover, they cannot provide a comprehensive analysis of the
   compatibility and potential risk that come with the term conflicts.
   In this paper, we propose DIKE, an automated tool that can perform
   license detection and conflict analysis for FOSS. First, DIKE extracts
   12 terms under 3,256 unique open source licenses by manual analysis and
   Natural Language Processing (NLP) and constructs a license knowledge
   base containing the responsibilities of the terms. Second, DIKE scans
   all licenses from the code snippet for the input software and outputs
   the scan results in a tree structure. Third, the scan results match the
   license knowledge base to detect license conflicts from terms and
   conditions. DIKE designs two solutions for software with license
   conflicts: license replacement and code replacement. To demonstrate the
   effectiveness of DIKE, we first evaluate with the term extraction and
   responsibility classification, and the results show that their F1-scores
   reach 0.816 and 0.948, respectively. In addition, we conduct a
   measurement study of 16,341 popular projects from GitHub based on our
   proposed DIKE to explore the conflict of license usage in FOSS. The
   results show that 1,787 open source licenses are used in the project,
   and 27.2\% of licenses conflict. Our new findings suggest that conflicts
   are prevalent in FOSS, warning the open source community about
   intellectual property risks.},

Title = {THE IMPACT OF IDEOLOGY MISFIT ON OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE COMMUNITIES AND
   COMPANIES},
Journal = {MIS QUARTERLY},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {42},
Number = {4},
Pages = {1069+},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Corporate involvement in open source software (OSS) communities has
   increased substantially in recent years. Often this takes the form of
   company employees devoting their time to contribute code to the efforts
   of projects in these communities. Ideology has traditionally served to
   motivate, coordinate, and guide volunteer contributions to OSS
   communities. As employees represent an increasing proportion of the
   participants in OSS communities, the role of OSS ideology in guiding
   their commitment and code contributions is unknown. In this research, we
   argue that OSS ideology misfit has important implications for companies
   and the OSS communities to which their employees contribute, since their
   engagement in such communities is not necessarily voluntary. We
   conceptualize two different types of misfit: OSS ideology under-fit,
   whereby an employee embraces an OSS ideology more than their coworkers
   or OSS community do, and OSS ideology over-fit, whereby an employee
   perceives that their coworkers or OSS community embrace the OSS ideology
   more strongly than the employee does. To develop a set of hypotheses
   about the implications of these two types of misfit for employee
   commitment to the company and commitment to the OSS community, we draw
   on self-determination theory. We test the hypotheses in a field study of
   186 employees who participate in an OSS community. We find that OSS
   ideology under-fit impacts the company and the community in the same
   way: it decreases employee commitment to the company and commitment to
   the OSS community. In contrast, we find that OSS ideology over-fit
   increases commitment to the company but decreases commitment to the OSS
   community. Finally, we find that employees' commitment to their company
   reinforces the impact of their commitment to the OSS community in
   driving ongoing code contributions. This provides a holistic view of OSS
   ideology and its impacts among an increasingly pervasive yet
   understudied type of participant in OSS research. It provides insights
   for companies that are considering assigning their employees to work in
   OSS communities as well as for OSS communities that are partnering with
   these companies.},

Abstract = {Program analysis is the process of statically or dynamically retrieving
   the structure and behavior of software systems. Static analysis solely
   relies on the availability of source code of computer programs, while
   dynamic analysis captures program information using execution traces
   during program runtime. The entire process is called software reverse
   engineering, where the extracted information could eventually be
   visualized to facilitate program comprehension for the sake of learning,
   maintenance, etc. Open source software, in this context, plays a vital
   role in developing, enriching, and validating program analysis
   techniques. In this paper, we show and discuss how open source software
   projects significantly contribute to the development, evolution, and
   validation of program analysis techniques as well as enriching
   reverse-engineered diagrams with useful and meaningful information, even

Abstract = {Sequences of relational events underlie much empirical research on
   organizational relations. Yet relational event data are typically
   aggregated and dichotomized to derive networks that can be analyzed with
   specialized statistical methods. Transforming sequences of relational
   events into binary network ties entails two main limitations: the loss
   of information about the order and number of events that compose each
   tie and the inability to account for compositional changes in the set of
   actors and/or recipients. In this article, we introduce a newly
   developed class of statistical models that enables researchers to
   exploit the full information contained in sequences of relational
   events. We propose an extension of the models to cater for sequences of
   relational events linking different sets of actors. We illustrate the
   empirical application of relational event models in the context of a
   free/open source software project with the aim to explain the level of
   effort produced by contributors to the project. We offer guidance in the
   interpretation of model parameters by characterizing the social
   processes underlying organizational problem solving. We discuss the
   applicability of relational events models in organizational research.},

Abstract = {Sharing individualized results with health study participants, a
   practice we and others refer to as ``report-back,{''} ensures
   participant access to exposure and health information and may promote
   health equity. However, the practice of report-back and the content
   shared is often limited by the time-intensive process of personalizing
   reports. Software tools that automate creation of individualized reports
   have been built for specific studies, but are largely not open-source or
   broadly modifiable. We created an open-source and generalizable tool,
   called the Macro for the Compilation of Report-backs (MCR), to automate
   compilation of health study reports. We piloted MCR in two environmental
   exposure studies in Massachusetts, USA, and interviewed research team
   members (n = 7) about the impact of MCR on the report-back process.
   Researchers using MCR created more detailed reports than during manual
   report-back, including more individualized numerical, text, and
   graphical results. Using MCR, researchers saved time producing draft and
   final reports. Researchers also reported feeling more creative in the
   design process and more confident in report-back quality control. While
   MCR does not expedite the entire report-back process, we hope that this
   open-source tool reduces the barriers to personalizing health study
   reports, promotes more equitable access to individualized data, and
   advances self-determination among participants.},

Abstract = {Open source software development (OSSD) projects is a collaborative
   process among developers and volunteers with common interests. OSSD is
   increasingly becoming a trend and many successful OSSD projects have
   contributed software packages which have been widely adopted.
   Unfortunately, there is Pareto principle in OSSD projects, and a large
   number of OSSD projects have little influence, many projects a re unable
   to attract user interest. Therefore, it is important to understand the
   factors affecting OSSD project success as measured by project
   popularity. While technical factors such as license and compatibility
   with certain operating systems have a direct influence on the popularity
   of OSSD projects, development-related factors also have latent impacts
   on the popularity of OSSD projects. Therefore, we collect data on 445
   projects and successfully build a structural equation model (SEM) which
   depicts the inherent relationships between development-related factors
   and OSSD project popularity. The steps to build the SEM and the
   implications of this model are discussed in detail in this paper.},

Volume = {131},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has become an important environment where
   developers can share reusable software assets in a collaborative manner.
   Although developers can find useful software assets to reuse in the OSS
   environment, they may face difficulties in finding solutions to problems
   that occur while integrating the assets with their own software. In OSS,
   sharing the experiences of solving similar problems among developers
   usually plays an important role in reducing problem-solving efforts. We
   analyzed how developers interact with each other to solve problems in
   OSS, and found that there is a common pattern of exchanging information
   about symptoms and causes of a problem. In particular, we found that
   many problems involve multiple symptoms and causes and it is critical to
   identify those symptoms and causes early to solve the problems more
   efficiently. We developed a Bayesian network based approach to
   semiautomatically construct a knowledge base for dealing with problems,
   and to recommend potential causes of a problem based on multiple
   symptoms reported in OSS. Our experiments showed that the approach is
   effective to recommend the core causes of a problem, and contributes to
   solving the problem in an efficient manner. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All

Title = {Strategic flexibility in open innovation - designing business models for
   open source software},
Journal = {EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF MARKETING},
Year = {2012},
Volume = {46},
Number = {10},
Pages = {1368-1388},
Abstract = {Purpose - This paper seeks to explore how market orientation facilitates
   the strategic flexibility of business models grounded in open
   innovation. The authors suggest that the new paradigm of open innovation
   may impact a firm's adaptability and responsiveness under conditions of
   environmental flux. However, extending innovation capacity by opening
   the innovation process poses major challenges for firms. The aims of
   this study are to explore the characteristics of open innovation
   activity and to contemplate the role of strategic flexibility in the
   design of business models based upon open innovation.
   Design/methodology/approach - The study draws upon a qualitative
   research approach through a longitudinal case study in the field of open
   source software (OSS). The empirical case illustrates how an OSS firm
   utilizes signals in its environment to flexibly alter its business
   model.
   Findings - A business model that embodies open innovation raises
   dilemmas between open and closed innovation paradigms. However, the
   authors' case highlights that an ambidextrous approach that combines
   market orientation with the principles of open innovation increases
   profitability, shortens time to market through effective market access,
   and enhances innovation capability.
   Research limitations/implications - The results have profound
   implications for industrial marketers, managers, management consultants
   and business educators. They can use the insights gleaned from this
   research to guide the development of business models that involve open
   innovation. The results indicate that firms involved in open innovation
   need reactive strategic flexibility to cope with the environmental
   diversity and variability. However, this study analyzes a single case in
   the field of OSS and one should be cautious when generalizing the
   findings.
   Originality/value - This paper improves the understanding of the
   relationship between flexibility and market orientation. It combines two
   areas that have previously been discussed separately, i.e. market
   orientation and open innovation.},

Abstract = {Interest of scientific research on Open Source software and its
   development process is frequent. The number of articles available and
   the number of tracks or workshops on this topic in most relevant IS
   Conferences is high. The usability of Open Source Software has been
   scarcely considered until few years ago, probably due to the particular
   role that the user has in such a development environment. In Open Source
   software development, users and developers are not so different. Anyhow,
   the diffusion of the Open Source software outside the development
   community contributes to sharpen the distinction among these two groups
   that are no longer equivalent. This circumstance has contributed to
   increase the interest on usability of Open Source software.
   Nevertheless, studies on end-users in Open Source contexts are still
   young. This paper introduces a pilot study on end user's perception of
   Open Source software. The aim of this pilot study is to identify how the
   end user perceives the Open Source software (in terms of Usability,
   Functionality, Reliability, Efficiency and Quality in Use).},

Abstract = {Purpose In times of open and distributed innovation, many innovation
   activities that are important for firms' products and services take
   place beyond the boundaries of the firm and thus beyond firms' direct
   control. A prime example for this phenomenon is open source software
   (OSS) development, where multiple actors contribute to a public good,
   which is also integrated into company-owned software products. Despite
   the importance of aligning community work on the public good with own
   in-house development efforts, firms have limited options to directly
   control the OSS project or the project's outcome. This research reflects
   on resource deployment control, a control mode in which firms assign own
   developers to work for an OSS project to influence the OSS project, and
   tests hypotheses on individual developer levels.
   Design/methodology/approach This research tests the effect of perceived
   resource deployment control on opinion leadership by analyzing employed
   Linux kernel developers. Findings The findings show that developers who
   perceive being assigned to an OSS project to enact control also exhibit
   opinion leadership. This research also investigates boundary conditions
   such as the OSS business model a firm operates and the reputation
   developers assign to the developers' employer. Originality/value This
   research is the first that is devoted to resource deployment control,
   and the research closes with a discussion of implications for control
   theory and the management of innovation beyond firm boundaries.},

Abstract = {This research is a study on the development of a framework for
   successful Open Source Software (OSS) implementation in the Malaysian
   Public Sector. A preliminary study was done to explore the state of OSS
   implementation among government agencies since the launch of the
   Malaysian Public Sector OSS Master Plan on July 16, 2004.
   Semi-structured face-to-face interviews using open-ended questions were
   conducted with IT managers and IT officers in the Northern Region of
   Peninsular Malaysia. The preliminary study aimed at investigating the
   usage of OSS and proprietary software, the level of OSS utilisation, the
   level of OSS knowledge and training of ICT and non-ICT staff, software
   development and acquisition model, internal OSS manpower capabilities
   and skills, the user's perception of the advantages of OSS, the user's
   perception of the risks of OSS, and the problems or barriers in OSS
   implementation. The results of interviews show that there are many
   problems or barriers in OSS implementation, e.g. lack of internal OSS
   expertise, lack of OSS policy, and lack of top management support.
   Therefore, this study will test the hypotheses on the success factors to
   OSS implementation in the public sector and to propose a framework for
   successful OSS implementation in the Malaysian Public Sector. A
   quantitative approach using survey method via questionnaire will be
   performed to answer the research question where simple random sampling
   will be used. The target respondents are the IT managers and IT officers
   among the sampling frame of 192 public sector agencies in Malaysia that
   have successfully implemented at least three OSS solution areas.},

Abstract = {Over the past few years, open source software (OSS) development has
   gained a huge popularity and has attracted a large variety of
   developers. According to software engineering folklore, the architecture
   and the organization of software depend on the communication patterns of
   the contributors. Communication patterns among developers influence
   knowledge sharing among them. Unlike in a formal organization, the
   communication network structures in an OSS project evolve unrestricted
   and unplanned. We develop a non-cooperative game-theoretic model to
   investigate the network formation in an OSS team and to characterize the
   stable and efficient structures. Developer heterogeneity in the network
   is incorporated based on their informative value. We find that there may
   exist several stable structures that are inefficient and there may not
   always exist a stable structure that is efficient. The tension between
   the stability and efficiency of structures results from developers
   acting in their self-interest rather than the group interest. Whenever
   there is such tension, the stable structure is either underconnected
   across types or overconnected within type of developers from an
   efficiency perspective. We further discuss how an administrator can help
   evolve a stable network into an efficient one. Empirically, we use the
   latent class model and analyze two real-world OSS projects hosted at
   Source Forge. For each project, different types of developers and a

Abstract = {The growth in the number of non-developer open source software (OSS)
   application users and the escalating use of these applications have led
   to the need and interest in developing usable OSS. OSS communities do
   not generally know how to apply usability techniques and are unclear
   about which techniques to use in each activity of the development
   process. The aim of our research is to adopt the Personas usability
   technique in the PSeInt OSS project and determine the feasibility of
   adapting the technique for application. To do this, we participated as
   volunteers in the project. We used the case study research method during
   technique application and participation in the community. As a result,
   we identified adverse conditions that were an obstacle to technique
   application and modified the technique to make it applicable. We can
   conclude from our experience that these changes were helpful for
   applying the technique, although it was not easy to recruit OSS users to
   participate in usability technique application.},

Abstract = {Standardized, easy to use, and preferably open-source research software
   is an important aspect in supporting and solidifying the wind turbine
   community. To this end, three contributions in the form of open-source
   software projects are presented in this paper. First, a community-driven
   wind turbine baseline controller, the Delft Research Controller (DRC),
   is presented. The DRC is applicable to high-fidelity simulation software
   that uses the DISCON controller interface. The controller distinguishes
   itself by the variety of available control and estimation
   implementations, its ease of use, and the universal applicability to
   wind turbine models. Secondly, in the wake of the DRC, the SimulinkDRC
   graphical controller design and compilation environment has been
   developed. Users having access to Simulink can benefit from the
   convenient way of controller development the tool provides. Finally, the
   FASTTool has been developed for educational purposes, by focusing on the
   graphical aspect of wind turbine (controller) design. The tool
   simplifies interaction with the advanced FAST simulation software, by
   comprehensive visualizations and analysis tools. This paper demonstrates
   and describes the functionality of all three software projects.},

Journal = {CMES-COMPUTER MODELING IN ENGINEERING \& SCIENCES},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {119},

Pages = {91-124},
Abstract = {We present a high performance modularly-built open-source software -
   OpenIFEM. OpenIFEM is a C++ implementation of the modified immersed
   finite element method (mIFEM) to solve fluid-structure interaction (FSI)
   problems. This software is modularly built to perform multiple tasks
   including fluid dynamics (incompressible and slightly compressible fluid
   models), linear and nonlinear solid mechanics, and fully coupled
   fluid-structure interactions. Most of open-source software packages are
   restricted to certain discretization methods; some are under-tested,
   under-documented, and lack modularity as well as extensibility. OpenIFEM
   is designed and built to include a set of generic classes for users to
   adapt so that any fluid and solid solvers can be coupled through the FSI
   algorithm. In addition, the package utilizes well-developed and tested
   libraries. It also comes with standard test cases that serve as software
   and algorithm validation. The software can be built on cross-platform,
   i.e., Linux, Windows, and Mac OS, using CMake. Efficient parallelization
   is also implemented for high-performance computing for large-sized
   problems. OpenIFEM is documented using Doxygen and publicly available to
   download on GitHub. It is expected to benefit the future development of
   FSI algorithms and be applied to a variety of FSI applications.},

Abstract = {Mission-critical IT systems are utilizing closed source software (CSS)
   mainly due to reasons related to ``quality assurance{''} and ``continued
   support{''} despite much better benefits of using Open Source Software
   (OSS). OSS permits users to access source code for assessment,
   amendment, and redistribution, which offers low dependency on a vendor
   without license or maintenance cost. This paper investigates and
   analyzes OSS adoption factors for ``critical IT infrastructure{''} by
   conducting a comprehensive review of the relevant literature.
   Furthermore, this paper proposes a framework that can help the critical
   IT industry to have increased confidence in OSS. The proposed framework
   utilizes the organizing logic of the Technology, Organization, and
   Environment (TOE) framework, recommends factors that were recognized by
   critically scrutinizing the studies found in the available literature.
   To validate the framework, a questionnaire-based survey was conducted
   targeting IT experts in critical sectors. The data integrity of survey
   results was analyzed using Cronbach's alpha. Framework factors were
   validated statistically using one sample T-test. The outcome indicated
   that the factors were statistically significant as the p-value was less
   than 0.05 for all the factors.},

Abstract = {Governments and financial institutions increasingly require that
   environmental impact assessment and mitigation account for consequences
   to both biodiversity and ecosystem services. Here we present a new
   software tool, OPAL (Offset Portfolio Analyzer and Locator), which maps
   and quantifies the impacts of development on habitat and ecosystem
   services, and facilitates the selection of mitigation activities to
   offset losses. We demonstrate its application with an oil and gas
   extraction facility in Colombia. OPAL is the first tool to provide
   direct consideration of the distribution of ecosystem service benefits
   among people in a mitigation context. Previous biodiversity-focused
   efforts led to redistribution or loss of ecosystem services with
   environmental justice implications. Joint consideration of biodiversity
   and ecosystem services enables targeting of offsets to benefit both
   nature and society. OPAL reduces the time and technical expertise
   required for these analyses and has the flexibility to be used across a
   range of geographic and policy contexts. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

Abstract = {The aim of this research is to analyse how design and use are mediated
   in Open Source Software (OSS) design. Focusing on the Python community,
   our study examines a ``pushed-by-users{''} design proposal through the
   discussions occurring in two mailing-lists: one, user-oriented and the
   other, developer-oriented. To characterize the links between users and
   developers, we investigate the activities and references (knowledge
   sharing) performed by the contributors to these two mailing-lists. We
   found that the participation of users remains local to their community.
   However, several key participants act as boundary spanners between the
   user and the developer communities. This emerging role is characterized
   by cross-participation in parallel same-topic discussions in both
   mailing-lists, cohesion between cross-participants, the occupation of a
   central position in the social network linking users and developers, as
   well as active, distinctive and adapted contributions. The user
   championing the proposal acts as a key boundary spanner coordinating the
   process and using explicit linking strategies. We argue that OSS design
   may be considered as a form of ``role emerging design{''}, i.e. design
   organized and pushed through emerging roles and through a balance
   between these roles. The OSS communities seem to provide a suitable
   socio-technical environment to enable such role emergence. (C) 2007

Abstract = {Seismic analysis and risk assessment of safety-critical infrastructure
   like hospitals, nuclear power plants, dams, and facilities handling
   radioactive materials involve computationally intensive numerical models
   and coupled multiphysics scenarios. They are also performed in a strict
   regulatory environment that requires high software quality assurance
   standards, and in the case of safety-related nuclear facilities, a
   conformance to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Nuclear
   Quality Assurance (NQA-1) standard. This paper introduces the
   open-source finite-element software, MASTODON (Multi-hazard Analysis of
   Stochastic Time-Domain Phenomena), which implements state-of-the-art
   seismic analysis and risk assessment tools in a quality-controlled
   environment. MASTODON is built on MOOSE (Multi-physics Object-Oriented
   Simulation Environment), which is a highly parallelizable, NQA-1
   conforming, coupled multiphysics, finite-element framework developed at
   Idaho National Laboratory. MASTODON is capable of fault rupture and
   source-to-site wave propagation using the domain reduction method,
   nonlinear site response, and soil-structure interaction analysis,
   implicit and explicit time integration, automated stochastic
   simulations, and seismic probabilistic risk assessment. When coupled
   with other MOOSE applications, MASTODON can also solve strongly and
   weakly coupled multiphysics problems. This paper presents a summary of
   the capabilities of MASTODON and some demonstrative examples.},

   important for Open Source Software (OSS) projects, which receive

   study qualitatively analyzed social barriers that hindered newcomers'
   first contributions. We defined a conceptual model composed of 58
   barriers including 13 social barriers. The barriers were identified from
   a qualitative data analysis considering different sources: a systematic
   literature review; open question responses gathered from OSS projects'
   contributors; students contributing to OSS projects; and semi-structured
   interviews with 36 developers from 14 different projects. This paper
   focuses on social barriers and its contributions include gathering
   empirical evidence of the barriers faced by newcomers, organizing and

Abstract = {This paper is an analysis of online discussions in an Open Source

   The objective of our study is to understand and to model the dynamics of
   the OSS design process that takes place in mailing list exchanges. We
   develop a method to study distant and asynchronous collaborative design
   activity based on an analysis of quoting practices. We analyze and
   visualize three aspects of the online dynamics: social, thematic
   temporal, and design. We show that roles emerge during discussions
   according to the involvement and the position of the participants in the
   discussions and how they influence participation in the design
   discussions. In our analysis of the thematic temporal dynamics of
   discussion, we examine how themes of discussion emerge, diverge, and are
   refined over time. To understand the design dynamics, we perform a
   content analysis of messages exchanged between developers to reveal how
   the online discussions reflect the ``work flow{''} of the project: it
   provides us with a picture of the collaborative design process in the
   OSS community. These combined results clarify how knowledge and
   artefacts are elaborated in this epistemic, exploration-oriented, OSS
   community. Finally, we outline the need to automate of our method to
   extend our results. The proposed automation could have implications for
   both researchers and participants in OSS communities. (C) 2007 Elsevier

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) solutions provide mission-critical services
   to industry and government organizations. However empirical studies on
   OSS development practices raise concerns on risky practices such as
   unclear requirement elicitation, ad hoc development process, little
   attention to quality assurance (QA) and documentation, and poor project
   management. Event then the ability to produce high quality products in
   such an environment may seem surprising and thus warrants an
   investigation on effective QA mechanism in OSS projects. This paper
   provides a preliminary exploration to improve our understanding of
   software quality practices in different types of OSS projects. We
   propose a framework of QA in an OSS project, elicit OSS stakeholder
   value propositions for QA, and derive performance indicators. For an
   initial empirical evaluation we applied these indicators to 5 releases
   of 2 large Apache projects (Tomcat and MyFaces) to analyze the extent to
   which QA aspects are commonly performed during development process.},

Abstract = {Efficient bug triaging procedures are an important precondition for
   successful collaborative software engineering projects. Triaging bugs
   can become a laborious task particularly in open source software (OSS)
   projects with a large base of comparably inexperienced part-time
   contributors. In this paper, we propose an efficient and practical
   method to identify valid bug reports which a) refer to an actual
   software bug, b) are not duplicates and c) contain enough information to
   be processed right away. Our classification is based on nine measures to
   quantify the social embeddedness of bug reporters in the collaboration
   network. We demonstrate its applicability in a case study, using a
   comprehensive data set of more than 7 0 0; 0 0 0 bug reports obtained
   from the BUGZILLA installation of four major OSS communities, for a
   period of more than ten years. For those projects that exhibit the
   lowest fraction of valid bug reports, we find that the bug reporters'
   position in the collaboration network is a strong indicator for the
   quality of bug reports. Based on this finding, we develop an automated
   classification scheme that can easily be integrated into bug tracking
   platforms and analyze its performance in the considered OSS communities.
   A support vector machine (SVM) to identify valid bug reports based on
   the nine measures yields a precision of up to 90.3\% with an associated
   recall of 38.9\%. With this, we significantly improve the results
   obtained in previous case studies for an automated early identification
   of bugs that are eventually fixed. Furthermore, our study highlights the
   potential of using quantitative measures of social organization in
   collaborative software engineering. It also opens a broad perspective
   for the integration of social awareness in the design of support
   infrastructures.},

Abstract = {At many scales in neuroscience, appropriate mathematical models take the
   form of complex dynamical systems. Parametrising such models to conform
   to the multitude of available experimental constraints is a global
   nonlinear optimisation problem with a complex fitness landscape,
   requiring numerical techniques to find suitable approximate solutions.
   Stochastic optimisation approaches, such as evolutionary algorithms,
   have been shown to be effective, but often the setting up of such
   optimisations and the choice of a specific search algorithm and its
   parameters is non-trivial, requiring domain-specific expertise. Here we
   describe BluePyOpt, a Python package targeted at the broad neuroscience
   community to simplify this task. BluePyOpt is an extensible framework
   for data-driven model parameter optimisation that wraps and standardises
   several existing open-source tools. It simplifies the task of creating
   and sharing these optimisations, and the associated techniques and
   knowledge. This is achieved by abstracting the optimisation and
   evaluation tasks into various reusable and flexible discrete elements
   according to established best-practices. Further, BluePyOpt provides
   methods for setting up both small- and large-scale optimisations on a
   variety of platforms, ranging from laptops to Linux clusters and
   cloud-based compute infrastructures. The versatility of the BluePyOpt
   framework is demonstrated by working through three representative
   neuroscience specific use cases},

Abstract = {Software systems are usually designed in a modular and hierarchical
   fashion, where functional responsibility of a system is decomposed into
   multiple functional software elements optimally such as subsystems,
   modules, packages, classes, methods, and functions. These elements are
   coupled with each other with some kind of dependency relationships to
   some degree, and their interactions naturally form a graph or network
   structure. In this study, we generated the static function-call graphs
   of several open-source software systems, where functions were the most
   basic type of interacting elements calling each other. Then, we analyzed
   the call graphs both visually and topologically using the techniques of
   complex network analysis. We found the call graphs to reveal scale-free
   and small-world network properties similar to the findings of the
   previous studies. In addition, we identified the most central and
   important functions in each call-graph using several centrality
   measures. We also performed community analysis and found that the call
   graphs exhibited a tendency to form communities. Finally, we showed that
   analysis of static function-call graphs of software systems through
   complex network analysis has the potential to reveal useful information
   about them.},

Abstract = {It is becoming commonplace for companies to contribute to open source
   software (OSS) projects. At the same time, many software organizations
   are applying Scrum software development practices, for productivity and
   quality gains. Scrum calls for self-organizing teams, in which the
   development team has total control over its development process.
   However, OSS projects typically have their own processes and standards,
   which might not mesh well with a company's internal processes, such as
   Scrum. This paper presents an experience report from Sony Interactive
   Entertainment (SIE), where the ``toolchain CPU compiler{''} team
   directly participates in the ``LLVM{''} OSS project. The team ran into a
   number of difficulties when using Scrum to manage their development. In
   particular, the team often failed to complete Scrum sprints where tasks
   required interaction with the open source community. We look at how the
   team redefined task flows to alleviate these difficulties, and
   eventually evolved a highly modified process, dubbed TWINS (This
   Workflow Is Not Scrum). We assess the revised process, and compare it to
   other established agile methods, finding it bears a strong resemblance
   to Scrumban (the SIE team was not aware of Scrumban previously). The
   TWINS framework presented here may help other organizations who develop
   software in-house and engage in OSS projects, to gain the best of both
   worlds.},

   use of solutions based on free and/or open source software. To identify,
   among the available OSS-based BI tools, which is the most appropriate
   for implementation in public bodies, it is necessary to apply some
   specific model for evaluation and selection. The literature describes
   several generic methods for assessing and comparing OSS. In this work,
   we select a suitable method and derive a model for the comparison and
   selection of OSS-based BI tools able to meet the demands of public
   organizations. In addition, through a case study, we demonstrate how
   this model can be used in the selection of a tool that can contribute to

Title = {Maintaining interoperability in open source software: A case study of
   the Apache PDFBox project},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {159},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Software interoperability is commonly achieved through the
   implementation of standards for communication protocols or data
   representation formats. Standards documents are often complex, difficult
   to interpret, and may contain errors and inconsistencies, which can lead
   to differing interpretations and implementations that inhibit
   interoperability. Through a case study of two years of activity in the
   Apache PDFBox project we examine day-to-day decisions made concerning
   implementation of the PDF specifications and standards in a community
   open source software (OSS) project. Thematic analysis is used to
   identify semantic themes describing the context of observed decisions
   concerning interoperability. Fundamental decision types are identified
   including emulation of the behaviour of dominant implementations and the
   extent to which to implement the PDF standards. Many factors influencing
   the decisions are related to the sustainability of the project itself,
   while other influences result from decisions made by external actors,
   including the developers of dependencies of PDFBox. This article
   contributes a fine grained perspective of decision-making about software
   interoperability by contributors to a community OSS project. The study
   identifies how decisions made support the continuing technical relevance
   of the software, and factors that motivate and constrain project
   activity. (C) 2019 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc. This is an

Title = {A comparative study of challenges in integrating Open Source Software

Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {53},
Number = {12},
Pages = {1319-1336},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Context: Several large software-developing organizations have adopted
   Open Source Software development (OSSD) practices to develop in-house
   components that are subsequently integrated into products. This
   phenomenon is also known as ``Inner Source{''}. While there have been
   several reports of successful cases of this phenomenon, little is known
   about the challenges that practitioners face when integrating software
   that is developed in such a setting.
   Objective: The objective of this study was to shed light on challenges
   related to building products with components that have been developed
   within an Inner Source development environment.
   Method: Following an initial systematic literature review to generate
   seed category data constructs, we performed an in-depth exploratory case
   study in an organization that has a significant track record in the
   implementation of Inner Source. Data was gathered through
   semi-structured interviews with participants from a range of divisions
   across the organization. Interviews were transcribed and analyzed using
   qualitative data analysis techniques.
   Results: We have identified a number of challenges and approaches to
   address them, and compared the findings to challenges related to
   development with OSS products reported in the literature. We found that
   many challenges identified in the case study could be mapped to
   challenges related to integration of OSS.
   Conclusion: The results provide important insights into common
   challenges of developing with OSS and Inner Source and may help
   organizations to understand how to improve their software development
   practices by adopting certain OSSD practices. The findings also identify
   the areas that need further research. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights

Volume = {26},
Number = {4},

Abstract = {Given that eGovernment is likely to become part of development
   strategies, the most desirable form of eGovernment is that which
   promotes the domestic generation of intellectual property or, at least,
   contributes least to the international intellectual property (IP)
   imbalance. One way to achieve these ends is to implement eGovernment
   using free or open source software (FOSS). This will reduce dependence
   on software owned by major companies in developed countries. It could
   also promote an IP generating capacity in developing countries. An
   examination of the status of free or open source software in developing
   countries in Southeast Asia reveals that governments in these countries
   are aware of FOSS and wish to foster its use (but face considerable
   pressure to use proprietary software). This examination also reveals the
   presence of small but active groups seeking to develop and promote the
   use of free or open source software. This article is comprised of a
   discussion of FOSS (including that suitable for eGovernment), an
   explanation of the importance of FOSS for developing countries, a
   justification of government's centrality to the introduction of FOSS and
   a consideration of policies and initiatives undertaken by governments in

Abstract = {A monitoring system using an open-source device based on Arduino was
   used to conduct an experiment inside a naturally ventilated greenhouse
   and predict the ventilation rate. Three DHT11 temperature/humidity
   sensors were used to measure the inside and outside temperature as well

   air current speed. The greenhouse was equipped with roof and side wall
   ventilators. The ventilation rate was calculated via an equation where
   both wind and buoyancy effect were taken into consideration. The goal of
   this research was to develop an inexpensive system that could be used by
   the producers as a reliable and accurate tool for measuring
   environmental parameters inside greenhouses and other agricultural
   buildings. The results led to the conclusion that the greenhouse's
   ventilation rate was adequate and measurements were accurate. Therefore,
   the experimental system's operation was reliable making it a low-cost
   and energy-efficient solution for environmental management in
   agricultural buildings.},

Abstract = {This paper assesses the effects of Stack Overflow code snippet evolution
   on the security of open-source projects. Users on Stack Overflow
   actively revise posted code snippets, sometimes addressing bugs and
   vulnerabilities. Accordingly, developers that reuse code from Stack
   Overflow should treat it like any other evolving code dependency and be
   vigilant about updates. It is unclear whether developers are doing so,
   to what extent outdated code snippets from Stack Overflow are present in
   GitHub projects, and whether developers miss security-relevant updates
   to reused snippets.
   To shed light on those questions, we devised a method to 1) detect
   outdated code snippets versions from 1.5M Stack Overflow snippets in
   11,479 popular GitHub projects and 2) detect security-relevant updates
   to those Stack Overflow code snippets not reflected in those GitHub
   projects. Our results show that developers did not update dependent code
   snippets when those evolved on Stack Overflow. We found that 2,405 code
   snippet versions reused in 2,109 GitHub projects were outdated, with 43
   projects missing fixes to bugs and vulnerabilities on Stack Overflow.
   Those 43 projects containing outdated, insecure snippets were forked on
   average 1,085 times (max. 16,121), indicating that our results are
   likely a lower bound for affected code bases. An important insight from
   our work is that treating Stack Overflow code as purely static code
   impedes holistic solutions to the problem of copying insecure code from
   Stack Overflow. Instead, our results suggest that developers need tools
   that continuously monitor Stack Overflow for security warnings and code
   fixes for reused code snippets and not only warn during copy-pasting.},

Abstract = {It is of great significance to effectively and quickly identify the most
   influential users in the open source software community, which can be
   represented by a complex network. Traditional methods of measuring node
   influence only consider some topology characteristics of the network, so
   the results are one-sided. Because there are different interactive
   behaviors among users in the community, it is necessary to mine more
   interaction information, so as to give a more comprehensive measure of
   node influence. In view of this, this paper proposes a method to
   maximize the node influence of open source software community based on a
   probability propagation model. Firstly, according to the relationship of
   users and their interactive records on projects, this paper quantifies
   the feedback of users on the project from three aspects (i.e. approve,
   save and modify) and establishes a new probability propagation model
   between users. Secondly, this paper proposes an algorithm(SIUF) to
   evaluate users' influence in the open source software community based on
   the probability propagation model. The algorithm fully considers the
   interaction behavior of users in the community. In the first stage, the
   user's own activity is taken as the initial ranking. In the second
   stage, the influence of neighbor nodes is taken into account, and the
   SIUF value of nodes is accumulated while the rich club effect is
   weakened. Finally, the proposed theory and method are applied to GitHub,
   a typical open source software community, and the correctness and
   effectiveness of this method are verified from influence spread and
   speed.},

Abstract = {Agricultural fertilization and irrigation are closely related to the
   problems of agricultural yield, product quality, and environmental
   pollution. Precision fertilization and irrigation is an effective method
   to solve this problem. In order to precisely control plant fertilization
   and irrigation, a monitoring system is designed and implemented using
   open-source software, loose communication structure, industrial control
   computer (IPC), programmable logic controller (PLC), and control and
   monitoring devices. The control command management subsystem of the
   system's upper computer is built using GoWin IPC, cloud server, mobile
   devices, and 4G wireless network. Each application running in the upper
   computer is developed using open-source software such as PostgreSQL,
   Smobiler, etc. The fertilization and irrigation monitoring subsystem of
   the lower computer was built using HollySys PLC model LE5107L and
   different sensors for various data parameters as control units. The
   system allows real-time remote monitoring and control of agricultural
   precision fertilization and irrigation through mobile applications, with
   an average communication delay of 1.45 s between the upper and lower
   units, and less than 3 s overall, allowing for longterm stable
   communication. The current system can adapt to the variable environment
   in the field and has been operating stably in the field for 2 months.
   This paper provides a convenient system construction solution for field
   farmland where network wiring is not possible, and it has low
   construction and maintenance costs, reliable operation, and a flexible
   structure for agricultural applications. (C) 2022 American Society of

Abstract = {Context: Software-intensive organizations' rationale for sharing Open
   Source Software (OSS) may be driven by both idealistic, strategic and
   commercial objectives, and include both monetary as well as non-monetary
   benefits. To gain the potential benefits, an organization may need to
   consider what they share and how, while taking into account risks, costs
   and other complexities. Objective: This study aims to empirically
   investigate objectives and complexities organizations need to consider
   and balance between when deciding on what software to share as OSS, when
   to share it, and whether to create a new or contribute to an existing
   community. Method: A multiple-case study of three case organizations was
   conducted in two research cycles, with data gathered from interviews
   with 20 practitioners from these organizations. The data was analyzed
   qualitatively in an inductive and iterative coding process. Results: 12
   contribution objectives and 15 contribution complexities were found.
   Objectives include opportunities for improving reputation, managing
   suppliers, managing partners and competitors, and exploiting externally
   available knowledge and resources. Complexities include risk of loosing
   control, risk of giving away competitive advantage, risk of creating
   negative exposure, costs of contributing, and the possibility and need
   to contribute to an existing or new community. Conclusions: Cross-case
   analysis and interview validation show that the identified objectives
   and complexities offer organizations a possibility to reflect on and
   adapt their contribution strategies based on their specific contexts and
   business goals.},

Abstract = {Engaging students in humanitarian free and open source software (HFOSS)
   projects allows them to gain real-world software development skills
   while helping society. Participating in an existing HFOSS project,
   although ripe with learning opportunities, presents a number of hurdles
   for faculty and students. An alternative to joining an existing HFOSS
   project community is to participate in a faculty-led HFOSS project.
   These projects provide the instructor with more control over the
   learning environment, but often lack an active community outside of the
   classroom. This paper describes a multi-institutional effort to engage a
   community of developers in creating humanitarian open source projects to
   support their on-campus food pantries. Food insecurity on campus has
   become a national concern and many institutions have, or are starting,
   food pantries to support the student, staff, and faculty community.
   Starting a faculty-led HFOSS project involves making decisions not only
   about the features of the project but also about community norms, tool
   choices, project development workflow, and inter-institution
   cooperation. This paper provides an overview of the creation of Libre
   Food Pantry, a community who is developing a suite of projects that
   support on-campus food pantries. It describes instances of using Libre
   Food Pantry's projects in various classroom settings, the lessons
   learned from these experiences, and the resulting discussions and
   decisions made by the Libre Food Pantry Coordinating Committee. This
   process has led to a community dedicated to easing the on-ramp for
   faculty who want to help their students contribute to an HFOSS project.},

Journal = {EMPIRICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {25},
Number = {6},
Pages = {4379-4426},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {In large-scale open-source software projects, where developers are often
   distributed across the entire planet, coordination among developers is
   crucial. To estimate whether a state ofsocio-technical congruenceis
   achieved, which is associated with software quality and project success,
   we assess the alignment of collaboration and communication in such
   software projects in terms ofcoordination requirements. By means of an
   empirical study on a substantial set of large-scale open-source software
   projects-the development histories of all projects sum up to over 180
   years-we aim at shedding light on this issue. To this end, to take a
   more semantic view on this phenomenon in comparison to previous work, we
   do not only identify coordination requirements arising from files and
   functions only, but also those arising from features. We found that
   open-source developers fulfill coordination requirements intentionally,
   but mostly those coordination requirements that arise from coupled
   source-code artifacts, while they resolve simpler ones independently.
   Furthermore, neither of the considered abstraction levels of source-code
   artifacts (files, functions, features) is more suitable to construct
   coordination requirements with respect to their fulfillment. This
   finding strongly indicates that features do not play an as important
   role in the development process as expected and commonly believed by the
   research community in the area of feature-oriented and feature-driven
   development. Finally, we identified notable evolutionary trends in the
   fulfillment of coordination requirements and showed that far-reaching
   social events (such as organizational issues) have a huge impact on
   their fulfillment, both negatively and positively. The key findings of
   our empirical study are that socio-technical relations are important to
   understand open-source development communities and that the
   incorporation of different abstraction levels for developer
   collaboration does yield important insights to further improve the
   evolution in open-source software projects.},

Abstract = {For a firm in an open source software (OSS) ecosystem, the requirements
   engineering (RE) process is rather multifaceted. Apart from its typical
   RE process, there is a competing process, external to the firm and
   inherent to the firm's ecosystem. When trying to impose an agenda in
   competition with other firms, and aiming to align internal product
   planning with the ecosystem's RE process, firms need to consider who and
   how influential the other stakeholders are, and what their agendas are.
   The aim of the presented research is to help firms identify and analyze
   stakeholders in OSS ecosystems, in terms of their influence and
   interactions, to create awareness of their agendas, their collaborators,
   and how they invest their resources. To arrive at a solution artifact,
   we applied a design science research approach where we base artifact
   design on the literature and earlier work. A stakeholder influence
   analysis (SIA) method is proposed and demonstrated in terms of
   applicability and utility through a case study on the Apache Hadoop OSS
   ecosystem. SIA uses social network constructs to measure the
   stakeholders' influence and interactions and considers the special
   characteristics of OSS RE to help firms structure their stakeholder
   analysis processes in relation to an OSS ecosystem. SIA adds a strategic
   aspect to the stakeholder analysis process by addressing the concepts of
   influence and interactions, which are important to consider while acting
   in collaborative and meritocratic RE cultures of OSS ecosystems.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) projects represent an alternate form of

   Despite the immense success of several mainstream OSS projects such as
   Mozilla, Linux, and Apache, a vast majority of such projects fail to
   sustain their development due to high levels of developer turnover.
   While existing research in the area has offered a rich foundation, we
   know little about how developers' perceptions of fit with the project
   environment may be moderated by the sense of ownership they have toward
   the project and how it may impact their turnover intentions. Using
   survey data from 574 GitHub developers, we tested a model to examine the
   impact of Person-Organization fit and psychological ownership on
   developers' turnover intentions. Our results suggest that two relevant
   dimensions of fit, namely, value and demands-abilities fit, negatively
   impact turnover intentions and that their sense of ownership moderates
   these effects.},

   and sustaining communities on the ISP being developed by the National
   Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) of Japan.
   Inspired by the way Open Source software communities operate, we
   describe the model concept, its settings, and the tools ISP communities
   may need to support their contribution towards the development of
   products and services. Our experience in the design and implementation
   of the model provides useful insights into emerging ICT trends and the
   means for ISP providers to identify, at an early stage, the requirements
   for creating successful products and services ecosystem.},

Abstract = {Assessing User eXperience (UX) maturity is mandatory in the free and
   open-source software (FOSS) community to avoid wasting resources on
   projects that may fall short of expectations. Best practices suggest
   employing UX Capability Maturity Models (UXCMMs), which often specify an
   evolutionary plateau toward developing a UX-matured system and quantify
   organizational UX maturity into maturity levels ranging from no or ad
   hoc improvement to integrated continuous improvement. Numerous
   generically developed UXCMMs exist. However, none is created for the
   FOSS community, and less information is available to support their
   perfect match. Thus, raise suspicions if they have proper UX maturity
   influencing factors (UXMIFs) for the FOSS community or measure the right
   thing. The FOSS community differs from traditional software-developing
   communities and may have different dynamics and UXMIFs, necessitating
   unique and new methodologies for their discovery. This study, therefore,
   aims to identify the FOSS community's UXMIFs and evaluate the
   community's knowledge of UX maturity-related concepts. Its findings may
   help future researchers, practitioners, and other FOSS developers to
   develop UXCMMs exclusive to the FOSS community. The study's design is
   both qualitative and quantitative. It adopted a systematic literature
   review, interviews, fuzzy Delphi Method, and thematic analysis to
   collect and analyze data and present the findings. The study's sample
   included sixty-two active FOSS projects, fifteen FOSS stakeholders, and
   twelve UX experts. The outcome shows that 84\% of UX experts agreed on
   the thirty-six FOSS's UXMIFs with threshold d = 0.143 and crisp values
   greater than alpha-cut = 0.5. User feedback and adopted technologies
   were ranked first, while learnability and use speed were ranked last.
   Similarly, FOSS stakeholders have shown a shared understanding of UX
   maturity, connected concepts, and impacting factors.},

Abstract = {In the Open Source Software (OSS) paradigm, developers along with users
   form a community for an OSS project as they share an interest in
   using/developing the project. Active community engagement is essential
   for an OSS project to succeed. OSS communities should strive for greater
   community participation and engagement through the use of tools,
   practices, and processes. The primary goal of this paper is to presents
   a review of studies on community participation and engagement in OSS
   projects based on systematic mapping study and snowballing technique.
   This study also provides an understanding about the research topics and
   gaps in the area, utilized research methods and publication venues. We
   have analyzed 67 research papers related to the study topic. The
   findings revealed that most of the studies used a combination of survey
   and questionnaire as a research methodology. We found that community
   participation and engagement research focuses on 5 main research topics
   joining process, contribution barriers, motivation, retention, and
   abandonment. The investigated studies provide more evidence on
   motivation and contribution barriers but less on the joining process and
   abandonment. The results presented in this paper will be helpful for
   researchers to understand the latest trends in this area and identifying

Abstract = {The aim of this study is to assess the financial reporting framework
   applied to open source software. Open sourcing software developments
   means sharing technology and resources with communities worldwide to
   help eliminate the digital divide, create economic opportunity, and
   support equal access to technology. Therefore, a methodological approach
   is needed to assess properly the performance and the value generation
   potential and to put such measure into organizational reports.
   International financial reporting framework is checked over conditions
   to allow value recognition of open sourced assets. Linux kernel
   development value is estimated to reflect worth of open source
   developments despite absence of book value due to inexistence of a
   single cost source. Several attempts to estimate a valuation of open
   source software have been performed previously. However, this study is
   the first to judge suitability of accounting framework to report on this
   value. The main finding is that open sourced assets do not fully
   accomplish conditions to be included in financial reports. We seek to
   stimulate academic and professional debate about the pursuit of
   valuation of a large and efficient ecosystem of software innovation,

Abstract = {Software evolution is a fact of life. Over the past 30years, researchers
   have proposed hypotheses on how software changes and provided evidence
   that both supports and refutes these hypotheses. To paint a clearer
   image of the software evolution process, we performed an empirical study
   on long spans in the lifetime of nine open-source projects. Our analysis
   covers 705 official releases and a combined 108years of evolution. We
   first tried to confirm Lehman's eight laws of software evolution on
   these projects using statistical hypothesis testing. Our findings
   indicate that only the laws of continuing change and continuing growth
   are confirmed for all programs, whereas the other six laws are violated
   by some programs, or can be both confirmed and invalidated, depending on
   the laws' operational definitions. Second, we analyze the growth rate
   for projects' development and maintenance branches, and the distribution
   of software changes. We find similarities in the evolution patterns of
   the programs we studied, which brings us closer to constructing rigorous
   models for software evolution. Copyright (c) 2011 John Wiley \& Sons,

Journal = {AUTOMATED SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {28},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {To guide software development, the estimation of the impact of decision
   making on the development process can be helpful in planning. For this
   estimation, often prediction models are used which can be learned from
   project data. In this paper, an approach for the usage of agent-based
   simulation for the prediction of software evolution trends is presented.
   The specialty of the proposed approach lies in the automated parameter
   estimation for the instantiation of project-specific simulation models.
   We want to assess how well a baseline model using average (commit)
   behavior of the agents (i.e., the developers) performs compared to
   models where different amount of project-specific data is fed into the
   simulation model. The approach involves the interplay between the mining
   framework and simulation framework. Parameters to be estimated include,
   e.g., file change probabilities of developers and the team constellation
   reflecting different developer roles. The structural evolution of
   software projects is observed using change coupling graphs based on
   common file changes. For the validation of simulation results, we
   compare empirical with simulated results. Our results showed that an
   average simulation model can mimic general project growth trends like
   the number of commits and files well and thus, can help project managers
   in, e.g., controlling the onboarding of developers. Besides, the
   simulated co-change evolution could be improved significantly using
   project-specific data.},

Abstract = {Open-source Software (OSS) has become a valuable resource in both
   industry and academia over the last few decades. Despite the innovative
   structures they develop to support the projects, OSS projects and their
   communities have complex needs and face risks such as getting abandoned.
   To manage the internal social dynamics and community evolution, OSS
   developer communities have started relying on written governance
   documents that assign roles and responsibilities to different community
   actors.
   To facilitate the study of the impact and effectiveness of formal
   governance documents on OSS projects and communities, we present a
   longitudinal dataset of 710 GitHub-hosted OSS projects with
   GOVERNANCE.MD governance files. This dataset includes all commits made
   to the repository, all issues and comments created on GitHub, and all
   revisions made to the governance file. We hope its availability will
   foster more research interest in studying how OSS communities govern
   their projects and the impact of governance files on communities.},

Abstract = {Significant floods all over the world, including Romania and Bulgaria,
   have occurred in the last years as result of climate change and extreme
   meteorological phenomena manifestation.
   Overland flooding, the most common type of flooding event usually occurs
   when rivers or streams overflow their banks as a result of heavy
   rainfalls or fast snowmelt. In European Union, flood defence management
   is an essential part of the integrated water management and the European
   Commission Directive 2007/60, regarding the estimation and management of
   the flood risks, states that all the member countries have to achieve
   flood risks maps till the end of 2013.
   Flood hazard maps must be created to help the communities in finding out
   which are the different flood risk areas and to provide public awareness
   and useful information to local authorities and decisions makers in case
   of possible flood events. Flood risk areas should be also identified and
   delimited for future land use and development.
   The development of risk maps assumes the existence and access to
   extensive databases, detailed maps and GIS data depots for most of the
   necessary information, as well as expensive software (i.e. ArcGIS, MIKE)
   and skilled experts. Unfortunately, these criteria are not always met.
   This paper presents an alternative method to prepare preliminary
   floodplain maps, based on the use of Autodesk products and Open Source
   software.
   The purpose of the method is to introduce basic satellite image display
   and processing techniques using open source software and freely
   available satellite data to allow floodplain maps development without
   using expensive software and unaffordable data. The method consists in
   DTM (Digital Terrain Model) generation, rivers and watershed delineation
   and hydraulic modelling in order to generate floodplain maps.},

   electrocardiograms},
Journal = {SCIENTIFIC REPORTS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {14},
Number = {1},
Month = {JAN 2},
Abstract = {Respiratory rate (RR) is a critical vital sign used to assess pulmonary
   function. Currently, RR estimating instrumentation is specialized and
   bulky, therefore unsuitable for remote health monitoring. Previously, RR
   was estimated using proprietary software that extract surface
   electrocardiogram (ECG) waveform features obtained at several thoracic
   locations. However, developing a non-proprietary method that uses
   minimal ECG leads, generally available from mobile cardiac monitors is
   highly desirable. Here, we introduce an open-source and well-documented
   Python-based algorithm that estimates RR requiring only single-stream
   ECG signals. The algorithm was first developed using ECGs from awake,
   spontaneously breathing adult human subjects. The algorithm-estimated
   RRs exhibited close linear correlation to the subjects' true RR values
   demonstrating an R-2 of 0.9092 and root mean square error of 2.2 bpm.
   The algorithm robustness was then tested using ECGs generated by the
   ischemic hearts of anesthetized, mechanically ventilated sheep. Although
   the ECG waveforms during ischemia exhibited severe morphologic changes,
   the algorithm-determined RRs exhibited high fidelity with a resolution
   of 1 bpm, an absolute error of 0.07 +/- 0.07 bpm, and a relative error
   of 0.67 +/- 0.64\%. This optimized Python-based RR estimation technique
   will likely be widely adapted for remote lung function assessment in
   patients with cardiopulmonary disease.},

Abstract = {This study assessed the factors affecting the effective utilization of
   KOHA by librarians in Nigerian academic and research libraries. A
   descriptive survey was adopted using a purposive sampling technique to
   select forty-five libraries over the six geopolitical zones of Nigeria
   (twenty universities, both private and public, ten Polytechnics, and
   five colleges of education). An online structured questionnaire was sent
   to forty-five libraries. Thirty-six libraries completed the
   questionnaire. This was analyzed by constraints to use, the extent of
   use, and effectiveness of Koha using simple frequency and percentage.
   The findings revealed that lack of institutional support, inadequate
   information, and negative attitudes of librarians were some of the
   challenges facing Koha in Nigeria. Based on the findings, libraries
   should implement Koha and join the Koha software users' group for
   effective understanding and utilization of all modules.},

   parallels to the business case for commercial software products (COTS).
   Compared with COTS, OSS products seem to have several advantages, but
   based on existing literature and a case study, we develop and discuss
   the hypothesis that a major barrier may be the ``customer's{''}
   uncertainty and unfamiliarity with OSS vendor relationships. We find
   that corporate governance and architecture needs to be accounted for in
   both COTS and OSS. This paper should be seen as a first step researching
   the fit between procurement and delivery models for OSS.},

   at the same time, proposes a heuristic search strategy in both component
   layer and class layer to reduce the search space complexity, which is
   optimized from exponential down to polynomial. Furthermore, we propose
   the optimal blocking concept to represent the cost of repairing the
   entire propagation path, in order to measure the severity of the
   project's vulnerability. As for the purpose of providing effective
   suggestions on vulnerability repairing, we model the optimal blocking
   calculation as the network flow minimal separate problem, then calculate
   the network maximal flux to obtain the key dependencies with risks.
   Finally, multiple case studies with various vulnerability dependent
   risks show that the proposed algorithm can find software vulnerabilities
   affecting specific projects effectively.},

Abstract = {The number of Open Source Software research papers has grown
   significantly over the last few years. An important open question is
   related with the investigation of how undergraduate students perceive
   the relevance of open source software literature. To address this
   question, we conducted a survey at University of Brasilia (UnB) where
   500 undergraduate students were invited to rate the relevance of
   research ideas contained in papers that were published over a period of
   ten years. This paper attempts to investigate whether the Open Source
   Software research produces results considered relevant to undergraduate
   students. This way we can provide feedback from the students, offering a
   way to produce useful and, consequently, more disseminated works among
   Open Source practitioners. To answer about the relevance of available
   work, we have tackled two questions: one about the scope of the studies
   and another about the quality perceived by them. For the first one, a
   systematic mapping was conducted, revealing a set of works composed by a
   great diversity of results. Than, we applied a Survey in which students
   could evaluate the relevance of these gathered works. The available open
   source software research works seem to be very diverse and were
   considered useful for students that contribute to the Open Source
   Projects. 77.01\% of respondents answered that research conducted in the
   Open Source Community is relevant and important to the community, as
   well as to their professional and academic lives.},

Abstract = {Maintenance is one of the most effort consuming activities in the
   software development lifecycle. Efficient maintenance within short
   release cycles depends highly on the underlying source code structure,
   in the sense that complex modules are more difficult to maintain. In
   this paper we attempt to unveil and discuss relationships between
   maintenance productivity, the structural quality of the source code and
   process metrics like the type of a release and the number of downloads.
   To achieve this goal, we developed a Bayesian Belief Network (BBN)
   involving several maintainability predictors and three managerial
   indices for maintenance (i.e., duration, production, and productivity)
   on 20 open source software projects. The results suggest that
   maintenance duration depends on inheritance, coupling, and process
   metrics. On the other hand maintenance production and productivity
   depend mostly on code quality metrics.},

Abstract = {Dendrite growth is a long-standing challenge that has limited the
   applications of rechargeable lithium metal electrodes. Here, we have
   developed a grand potential-based nonlinear phase-field model to study
   the electrodeposition of lithium as relevant for a lithium metal anode,
   using open-source software package MOOSE. The dynamic morphological
   evolution under a large/small overpotential is studied in two
   dimensions, revealing important dendrite growth/stable deposition
   patterns. The corresponding temporal spatial distributions of ion
   concentration, overpotential, and driving force are studied, which
   demonstrate an intimate, dynamic competition between ion transport and
   electrochemical reactions, resulting in vastly different growth
   patterns. On the basis of the understanding from this model, we propose
   a ``compositionally graded electrolyte{''} with higher local ion
   concentration as a way to potentially suppress dendrite formation. Given
   the importance of morphological evolution for lithium metal electrodes,
   widespread applications of phase-field models have been limited in part
   due to in-house or proprietary software. In order to spur growth of this
   field, we make all files available to enable future studies to study the
   many unsolved aspects related to morphology evolution of lithium metal
   electrodes.},

Abstract = {Software evolution refers to the phenomenon of continuous software
   change and growth after its initial development. A version control
   system records all information about these changes. Several research
   studies in the past have studied the historical records of changes of
   open source software (OSS) projects and found them useful for
   understanding the software evolution process. However, most of them
   investigate the distributions of changes types, change size, and change
   effort in an isolated manner. There is no work, to the best of our
   knowledge, which takes a combined view of various dimensions of a
   change. This study examines the change activity in 106 OSS projects from
   three points of view: change purpose (type), change size, and change
   effort. The common patterns in change type, change size, and change
   effort are highlighted using the burst detection technique. The burst
   detection technique helps in identifying the peaks in the time series
   and compares them with the peaks of other time series. The results
   indicate that the change-type activity of OSS projects is significantly
   related with change effort, and change size for high and
   moderate-activity clusters. Though for low-activity cluster, this
   commonality of patterns is not there for all types of changes.},

Title = {Using the DEMO methodology for modeling open source software development
   processes},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {52},
Number = {6},
Pages = {656-671},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Context: Open source software development (OSSD) process modeling has
   received increasing interest in recent years. These efforts aim to
   identify common elements in the development process between multiple
   open source software (OSS) projects. However, the complexity inherent to
   OSSD process modeling puts significant demands on the modeling language.
   Objective: In this paper, we propose that the Design and Engineering
   Methodology for Organizations (DEMO) may provide an interesting
   alternative to develop OSSD process models. DEMO exhibits two unique
   features within the context of OSSD process modeling. First, DEMO
   analyzes processes at the ontological level and provides high-level
   process descriptions, instead of focusing on the implementation level.
   Second, DEMO studies the communication patterns between human actors,
   instead of the sequences in which activities are performed.
   Method: We investigate the feasibility of using DEMO to construct OSSD
   process models by means of a case study. DEMO models were constructed to
   describe the NetBeans Requirements and Release process. In addition, the
   quality of these DEMO models was evaluated using a quality framework for
   conceptual modeling.
   Results: Our results showed that our DEMO models exhibited a high level
   of abstraction, thereby reducing the complexity of the OSSD process
   models. In addition, the evaluation of the models developed in this
   paper by using the quality framework for conceptual modeling showed that
   the models were of high quality.
   Conclusions: We have shown that the DEMO methodology can be successfully
   used to model OSSD processes and to obtain abstract and high-quality
   OSSD process models. However, given some potential drawbacks with
   respect to understandability and implementability, we primarily propose
   the use of DEMO within OSSD process modeling as an analysis tool that
   should be complemented with other techniques and models for
   communication and reenactment purposes. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All

Abstract = {Context: Architectural views serve as fundamental artefacts for
   designing and communicating software architectures. In the context of
   collaborative software development, producing sound architectural
   documentation, where architectural views play a central role, is a
   crucial aspect for effective teamwork. Despite their importance, the use
   of architectural views in open-source projects to date remains only
   marginally explored.
   Goal: We aim at conducting a comprehensive analysis on an extensive
   corpus of open-source architectural views. The goal is to understand (i)
   what the ``history{''} of architectural views is, (ii) how architectural
   views are represented, and (iii) what architectural views are used for
   in the context of open-source projects.
   Methods: We leverage a software repository mining process to
   systematically construct a dataset of 15k architectural views. Then, we
   perform (i) a quantitative analysis on the metadata of all 15k views and
   (ii) a qualitative analysis on a statistically-relevant sample of 373
   views.
   Results: Most projects rely on a single architectural view, which is
   often used to document a medium or high level description of the
   architecture. Views are usually created at either the beginning or at
   the end of a project, are rarely updated, and tend to be maintained by a
   single contributor. Views usually adopt an informal colored notation
   without a supporting legend and frequently report technologies used.
   Deployment and control flow are the most recurrent viewpoints, and
   commonly cover concerns related to software maintainability and
   functional suitability.
   Conclusion: The state of the practice about architectural views in
   open-source software systems seems to favor informal descriptions.
   Despite this, the effort needed to create views might hinder keeping
   views up to date, and a common syntactic ground between viewpoints seems
   hard to find. To address current needs, we speculate that a solution
   could lie in defining and popularizing versionable, templateable views
   that can be integrated in collaborative programming environments.},

Abstract = {Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) promotes software reuse and
   distribution at different levels for both creator and users, but at the
   same time imposes some challenges in terms of FOSS licenses that can be
   selected and combined. The main problem linked to this selection is the
   presence of a large set of licenses that define different rights and
   obligations in software use. The problem becomes more evident in cases
   of complex combinations of software that carries different - often
   conflicting - licenses. In this paper we are presenting our work on
   automating license compatibility by proposing a process that examines
   the structure of Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) for license
   compatibility issues assisting in their correct use and combination. We
   are offering the possibility to detect license violations in existing
   software projects and make suggestions on appropriate combinations of
   different software packages. We are also elaborating on the complexity
   and ambiguity of licensing detection in software products through
   representative case studies. Our work constitutes a useful process
   towards automating the analysis of software systems in terms of license
   use and compatibilities. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) has attracted extensive attention from
   researchers and scholars. This increasing attention is a result of the
   remarkable growth in the number of OSS applications in recent years.
   Despite an increased number of studies on OSS project success, the
   interrelationships among different success indicators of OSS projects
   are not well understood in literature. The present study reports on the
   interrelationships between the success measures of OSS projects, as
   defined by the ability of the project to attract user and developer
   interest, release management, project activity, and development
   sustainability. To test the relationships hypothesized, we gathered data
   from 1409 OSS projects over time (in two snapshots over a period of
   eight months). The results show the following: (a) project activity
   until any time period positively impacts the subsequent period's
   developer interest and development sustainability; (b) development
   sustainability positively drives user and developer interest; (c)
   release frequency positively influences the next period's developer
   interest, as well as development sustainability; (d) developer interest
   positively drives user interest. These findings have implications for
   both the OSS research community and OSS practitioners.},

Title = {PREPs: An Open-Source Software for High-Throughput Field Plant
   Phenotyping},
Journal = {PLANT PHENOMICS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {6},
Month = {AUG 9},
Abstract = {An open-source software for field-based plant phenotyping, Precision
   Plots Analyzer (PREPs), was developed using Window.NET. The software
   runs on 64-bit Windows computers. This software allows the extraction of
   phenotypic traits on a per-microplot basis from orthomosaic and digital
   surface model (DSM) images generated by
   Structure-from-Motion/Multi-View-Stereo (SfM-MVS) tools. Moreover, there
   is no need to acquire skills in geographical information system (GIS) or
   programming languages for image analysis. Three use cases illustrated
   the software's functionality. The first involved monitoring the growth
   of sugar beet varieties in an experimental field using an unmanned
   aerial vehicle (UAV), where differences among varieties were detected
   through estimates of crop height, coverage, and volume index. Second,
   mixed varieties of potato crops were estimated using a UAV and varietal
   differences were observed from the estimated phenotypic traits. A strong
   correlation was observed between the manually measured crop height and
   UAV-estimated crop height. Finally, using a multicamera array attached
   to a tractor, the height, coverage, and volume index of the 3 potato
   varieties were precisely estimated. PREPs software is poised to be a
   useful tool that allows anyone without prior knowledge of programming to
   extract crop traits for phenotyping.},

Abstract = {Free/Open Source Software (FOSS) communities often use open bug
   reporting to allow users to participate by reporting bugs. This practice
   can lead to more duplicate reports, as users can be less rigorous about
   researching existing bug reports. This paper examines how FOSS projects
   deal with duplicate bug reports. We examined 12 FOSS projects: 4 small,
   4 medium and 4 large, where size was determined by number of code
   contributors. First, we found that contrary to what has been reported
   from studies of individual large projects like Mozilla and Eclipse,
   duplicate bug reports are a problem for FOSS projects, especially
   medium-sized, which struggle with a large number of submissions without
   the resources of large projects. Second, we found that the focus of a
   project does not affect the number of duplicate bug reports. Our
   findings indicate a need for additional scaffolding and training for bug
   reporters.},

Abstract = {Software developing communities are shifting to open source software
   (OSS) because of the reason that software development takes place in
   successive releases, thereby improving its quality and reliability.
   Multi-release development of OSS can provide an opportunity to inculcate
   the dynamic needs of the user in a very short span of time to survive in
   the market. In spite of having these benefits, numerous challenges can
   be faced during the multi-release OSS development. Some of the
   challenges can be the generation of errors during the addition of new
   features. To address the changing fault detection process, a change
   point phenomenon is considered so as to give more practicality to the
   model. In this article, we present a general framework for multi-release
   OSS modelling incorporating imperfect debugging and change points.
   Parameter estimation and model validation is done on the three releases
   of Apache, an open source software project.},

   Software},
Journal = {TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION MANAGEMENT REVIEW},
Year = {2012},
Pages = {28-36},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Research on open source software (OSS) has examined value creation
   primarily from the perspective of the individuals and suppliers that
   create the software. The perspective of enterprise users who use and pay
   for OSS has been largely neglected so far. Understanding what paying
   customers want and how to create products and services they value is the
   cornerstone of any business model. Therefore, research on what
   enterprise users value in OSS is of paramount importance to OSS solution
   suppliers; it can be used to create a new customer base and sustain an
   existing one.
   This study examines the value of OSS as perceived by enterprise
   customers. Through an analysis of three literature streams (firm
   participation in open source software, business models, and customer
   value), a model on customer value creation was developed. Interviews
   were conducted with nine decision makers from enterprises that use OSS
   in operational projects. The key findings of this research are that: i)
   the maturity of the software determines the degree to which customers
   value their relationship with the supplier; ii) customers value
   differentiating functionality and costs savings; and iii) switching
   costs with OSS depend on the size, complexity, and dependencies of the
   software itself. This research identifies the points of value that the
   suppliers of OSS should focus on, and it points to the need for
   marketing strategies that can demonstrate this value to enterprise
   customers.},

Journal = {EPL},

Abstract = {We have investigated the origin of fluctuations in the aggregated
   behaviour of an open-source software community. In a recent series of
   papers (DE MENEZES M. A. and BARABASI A.-L., Phys. Rev. Lett., 92 (
   2004) 28701; 93 ( 2004) 68701; YOOK S. H. and de MENEZES M. A.,
   Europhys. Lett., 72 ( 2005) 541), de Menezes and co-workers have shown
   how to separate internal dynamics from external fluctuations by
   capturing the simultaneous activity of many system's components. In
   spite of software development being a planned activity, the analysis of
   fluctuations reveals how external driving forces can be only observed at
   weekly and higher time scales. Hourly and higher change frequencies
   mostly relate to internal maintenance activities. There is a crossover
   from endogenous to exogenous activity depending on the average number
   of. le changes. This new evidence suggests that software development is
   a non-homogeneous design activity where stronger efforts focus in a few
   project files. The crossover can be explained with a Langevin equation
   associated to the cascading process, where changes to any. le trigger
   additional changes to its neighbours in the software network. In
   addition, analysis of fluctuations enables us to detect whether a
   software system can be decomposed into several subsystems with different
   development dynamics. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2007.},

Abstract = {The identification of an unknown deceased person is an important task in
   forensic anthropology. There are various methods for identification,
   such as fingerprinting, odontostomatology and genetic fingerprinting,
   which presuppose the existence of reference material of the missing
   person; however, if there is no evidence of a person's identity the only
   possibility is often the use of forensic facial soft tissue
   reconstruction. This method is based on the high recognition level of a
   human face on the basis of bony structures of the skull and its
   anatomical features.
   The aim of this study was the design and application of a novel process
   for a computer-aided 3D facial soft tissue reconstruction on the basis
   of digital photographs of a skull.
   The facial soft tissue reconstruction was carried out on a selected
   forensic case and based on open source software.
   A complete facial soft tissue reconstruction of the deceased person was
   created based on 76 photographs of the skull taken with a Nikon D7100
   SLR digital camera. The results show that for actual comparison images
   similar reconstruction results can be achieved. In addition, a model
   library for facial features was created.
   The presented workflow of a computer-aided 3D facial soft tissue
   reconstruction based on open source software is a cost-effective and
   flexible alternative to conventional reconstruction methods. It could be
   demonstrated that comparable reconstruction results can be achieved.
   Whether the reconstruction result actually leads to the recognition of
   the person depends on many other factors.},

Abstract = {Without newcomers, open source software (OSS) projects are hardly
   sustainable. Yet, newcomers face a steep learning curve during OSS
   onboarding in which they must overcome a multitude of technical, social,
   and knowledge barriers. To ease the onboarding process, OSS communities
   are utilizing mentoring, task recommendation (e.g., ``good first
   issues{''}), and engagement programs (e.g., Google Summer of Code).
   However, newcomers must first cultivate their motivation for OSS
   contribution and learn the necessary preliminaries before they can take
   advantage of these mechanisms. We believe this gap can be filled by a
   dedicated, practice-oriented OSS onboarding course. In this paper, we
   present our experience of teaching an OSS onboarding course at Peking
   University. The course contains a series of lectures, labs, and invited
   talks to prepare students with the required skills and motivate them to
   contribute to OSS. In addition, students are required to complete a
   semester-long course project in which they plan and make actual
   contributions to OSS projects. They can either contribute to some
   recommended OSS projects with dedicated mentors, or contribute to any
   OSS project they prefer. Finally, 16 out of the 19 enrolled students
   have successfully contributed to OSS projects, and five have retained.
   However, the onboarding trajectories, final contributions, and retention
   outcomes differ vastly between the two groups of students with different
   course project choices, yielding lessons for software engineering
   education.},

Abstract = {The open-source Python package diffpy.mpdf, part of the DiffPy suite for
   diffraction and pair distribution function analysis, provides a
   user-friendly approach for performing magnetic pair distribution

   the DiffPy suite to allow users to create models of magnetic structures
   and calculate corresponding one- and three-dimensional mPDF patterns.
   diffpy.mpdf can be used to perform fits to mPDF data either in isolation
   or in combination with atomic pair distribution function data for joint
   refinement of the atomic and magnetic structure. Examples are given
   using MnO and MnTe as representative antiferromagnetic compounds and
   MnSb as a representative ferromagnet.},

Abstract = {Proton computed tomography (pCT) offers unique image formation
   attributes, with a potential for increasing accuracy of treatment
   planning in proton beam therapy. To maximize the potential of pCT it is
   necessary to develop advanced reconstruction algorithms that can
   accurately recover relative proton stopping power maps. This study aims
   to integrate pCT into STIR (Software for Tomographic Image
   Reconstruction), a popular Multi-Platform Object-Oriented framework for
   reconstruction in tomographic imaging to benefit from its software
   infrastructure. Open source STIR library is currently suitable for
   reconstructing and manipulating data from Positron Emission Tomography
   (PET) and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), which are
   based on cylindrical scanner geometries. Although pCT has a
   non-cylindrical geometry, STIR provides the framework for single event
   detection and modelling of the proton interactions. This initial
   implementation includes classes and functions with new features such as
   general proton scanner geometry, binning of list mode proton data into
   sinograms and uses analytical reconstruction algorithms already
   available in STIR. The structure of the new implemented features is
   discussed. Future work will include additional components to establish
   STIR as a potential toolkit for pCT image reconstruction.},

Abstract = {Measurements can be done with classical terrestrial techniques in
   geodetic deformation networks, as well as by using Global Navigation
   Satellite System (GNSS) technique, which is one of the most widely used
   modern techniques today. GNSS is a high-accuracy technique that is
   widely used today for monitoring and detecting deformations in the
   earth's crust and engineering structures. However, difficulties are
   encountered in the evaluation of measurements due to the intensive use
   of statistics in deformation analysis and the high numerical calculation
   load. Considering the possible consequences of deformations in the
   earth's crust and engineering structures, strategies and evaluation
   software are needed to determine them quickly. In this study, an
   open-source software that can be used in the analysis of deformation
   surveys carried out in campaigns with the static GNSS technique were
   developed by using R programming language since open-source deformation
   analysis software is missing in the field of deformation analysis. The
   method chosen for the determination of deformations is presented. The
   general features of the developed software are introduced, and a case
   study was carried out to test the computational performance of the
   software and to investigate which parameters are effective in
   determining the amount of deformation in GNSS networks correctly. As a
   result of the study, it was seen that ambiguity resolution rates and
   ionospheric activity affect the accuracy of the deformations determined
   in GNSS networks.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is distributed and maintained collaboratively
   by developers all over the world. However, frequent personnel turnover
   and lack of organizational management makes it difficult to capture the
   actual development effort. Various OSS maintenance effort estimation
   approaches have been developed to provide a way to understand and
   estimate development effort. The goal of this study is to identify the
   current state of art of the existing maintenance effort estimation
   approaches for OSS. We performed a systematic literature review on the
   relevant studies published in the period between 2000-2015 by both
   automatic and manual searches from different sources. We derived a set
   of keywords from the research questions and established selection
   criteria to carefully choose the papers to evaluate. 29 out of 3,312
   papers were selected based on a well designed selection process. Our
   results show that the commonly used OSS maintenance effort estimation
   methods are actual effort estimation and maintenance activity time
   prediction; the most commonly used metrics and factors for actual effort
   estimation are source code measurements and people related metrics; the
   most commonly mentioned activity for maintenance activity time
   prediction is bug fixing. Accuracy measures and cross validation is used
   for validating the estimation models. Based on the above findings, we
   identified the issues in evaluation methods for actual maintenance
   effort estimations and the needs for quantitative OSS maintenance effort
   inference from size-related metrics. Meanwhile, we highlighted
   individual contribution and performance measurement as a novel and
   promising research area.},

Abstract = {In this paper, we present Bender, an interactive and freely available
   software application for changing the pose of anatomical models that are
   represented as labeled, voxel-based volumes.
   Voxelized anatomical models are used in numerous applications including
   the computation of specific absorption rates associated with cell phone
   transmission energies, radiation therapy, and electromagnetic dosimetry
   simulation. Other applications range from the study of ergonomics to the
   design of clothing. Typically, the anatomical pose of a voxelized model
   is limited by the imaging device used to acquire the source anatomical
   data; however, absorption of emitted energies and the fit of clothes
   will change based on anatomic pose.
   Bender provides an intuitive, workflow-based user-interface to an
   extensible framework for changing the pose of anatomic models. Bender is
   implemented as a customized version of 3D Slicer, an image analysis and
   visualization framework that is widely used in the medical computing
   research community. The currently available repositioning methods in
   Bender are based on computer-graphics techniques for rigging, skinning,
   and resampling voxelized anatomical models. In this paper we present the
   software and compare two resampling methods: a novel extension to dual
   quaternions and finite element modeling (FEM) techniques. We show that
   FEM can be used to quickly and effectively resample repositioned
   anatomic models.},

Abstract = {The development of World Wide Web (WWW) a little more than a decade ago
   has caused an information explosion that needs an Intelligent Web (IW)
   for users to easily control their information and commercial needs.
   Therefore, engineering schools have offered a variety of IW courses to
   cultivate hands-on experience and training for industrial systems. In
   this study, Open Source Software Engineering Theory (OSSET) project
   course has been designed to help students learn theoretical concepts of
   IW, practice advanced technical skills, and discover knowledge to solve
   problem. Undergraduate Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
   (STEM) students involved in the development of innovative approaches and
   techniques. They are able to help solve the problems of disease
   misdiagnoses that medical and healthcare professionals experience. They
   co-authored and presented numerous research papers introducing the
   solution in different conferences. This study provides the solution in
   the form of an Intelligent OSSET using Service-Oriented Architecture
   (SOA) to decrease disease misdiagnosis in healthcare.
   The proposed project course has become a way to establish an
   ``Intelligent Open Source Software Engineering for Healthcare IT{''}
   center in our department. Results show that this new course strengthens
   the capacity and quality of STEM undergraduate degree programs and the
   number of overall graduate student enrollment. It promotes a vigorous
   STEM academic environment and increases the number of students entering
   STEM careers. It expands the breadth of faculty and student involvement
   in research and development. It enhances and leverages the active
   engagement of faculty technology transfer and translational research. It
   improves and develops new relationships between educational institutions
   and research funding entities to broaden the university's research
   portfolio and increase funding. The proposed project course is a
   software engineering research methodology, an educational tool, and a
   teaching technique is needed in future medical and health IT fields.},

   classical strengths of Open Source, namely mass inspection, ease of
   conducting trials, longevity and source code access for debugging, were
   at the forefront of thinking. However, there was an acknowledgement that

   no effort to systematically review the state of the practice of

   studies of OSS in order to make them useful for practitioners and

   Research aim: The aim of our research is to gain insights in the state
   of the practice of reporting empirical studies of OSS in order to
   identify the gaps to be filled for improving the quality of evidence
   being provided for OSS.
   Method: To that end, we decided to systematically review the empirical
   studies of OSS. A total of 63 papers reporting empirical studies were
   selected from the four editions of the Proceedings of the International
   Conference on Open Source Systems. The data were extracted and
   synthesised from the selected papers for analysis.
   Results and conclusions: We have found that the quality of the reported
   OSS-related empirical studies needs to be significantly improved. Based
   on the results of our systematic review and general principles of
   reporting good empirical research, we present a set of guidelines for
   reporting OSS-related empirical studies. The suggested guidelines are
   expected to help the research community to improve the quality of
   reported studies.},

   electric grids, standards introduce an open Smart Grid for liberalized
   service-oriented electricity markets by smoothing the way for business
   interactions and trades. Many organizations such as IEC and IEEE are
   introducing their standard communication protocols for future smart
   power grids and their associated smart meters. These standards include
   but not limited to, IEEE 802, IEEE 1815, IEEE 1901, IEC 62056, IEC
   60870-5-104, IEC 61850, etc. For smart buildings, smart homes and some
   wireless sensor networks (WSN), ZigBee is widely used. For smart roads,
   Internet of Things (IoT) is used in some cases including its messaging
   protocol Constraint Application Protocol (CoAP) together with WSN. In
   this paper, open source software (OSS) implementation of such standard
   protocols is discussed, including obstacles and advantages of a such
   implementation. Moreover, wireless telecommunication infrastructures
   including Wi-Fi, ZigBee, and Bluetooth are investigated for the right
   choice of Smart City applications' infrastructure, since the employment
   of a standard should be compatible with the field of application, timing

Journal = {APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {15},
Number = {2},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) projects rely on voluntary contributions, but
   their long-term survivability depends on sustained community engagement
   and effective problem-solving. Survivability, critical for maintaining
   project quality and trustworthiness, is closely linked to issue
   activity, as unresolved issues reflect a decline in maintenance capacity
   and problem-solving ability. Thus, analyzing issue retention rates
   provides valuable insights into a project's health. This study evaluates
   OSS survivability by identifying the features that influence issue
   activity and analyzing their relationships with survivability.
   Kaplan-Meier survival analysis is employed to quantify issue activity
   and visualize trends in unresolved issue rates, providing a measure of
   project maintenance dynamics. A random forest model is used to examine
   the relationships between project features-such as popularity metrics,
   community engagement, code complexity, and project age-and issue
   retention rates. The results show that stars significantly reduce issue
   retention rates, with rates dropping from 0.62 to 0.52 as stars increase

Abstract = {A good climatic analysis requires accurate and homogeneous daily
   precipitation series; unluckily, inhomogeneity is frequently found and
   have to be considered, especially when it is due to non-climatic
   parameters. CoRain is a free and open source software written in R
   language that could greatly help analyzing inhomogeneity caused by
   rainfall measuring instruments. CoRain compares two parallel rain series
   (with an overlapping period) and tries to highlight overestimations and
   underestimations due to rain gauges in a specific condition, so that the
   user can consider it for future analysis. CoRain offers many information
   on the two analyzed series, starting with cleaning input data, comparing
   them and classifying rainy days by severity. CoRain is a cross-platform
   software, easily adaptable to different needs, that takes in input a
   single text file with daily information of the two rain series and
   outputs tables (in CSV format) and plots (as PNG images) that help in
   the interpretation of the data. Use of the program is very simple: the
   execution can be either interactive or non-interactive. CoRain code has
   been tested on different rain series in the Piedmont region
   (northwestern Italy), showing its importance in identifying climate
   variations and instrumentation errors.},

Abstract = {Organizations are increasingly becoming Open Source Software (OSS)
   adopters, either as a result of a strategic decision or just as a
   consequence of technological choices. The strategy followed to adopt OSS
   shapes organizations' businesses; therefore methods to assess such
   impact are needed. In this paper, we propose OSSAP, a method for
   defining OSS Adoption business Processes, built using a Situational
   Method Engineering (SME) approach. We use SME to combine two well-known
   modelling methods, namely goal-oriented models (using i{*}) and business
   process models (using BPMN), with a pre-existing catalogue of
   goal-oriented OSS adoption strategy models. First, we define a
   repository of reusable method chunks, including the guidelines to apply
   them. Then, we define OSSAP as a composition of those method chunks to
   help organizations to improve their business processes in order to
   integrate the best fitting OSS adoption strategy. We illustrate it with
   an example of application in a telecommunications company.},

   development methods that lead to high quality software. Can these
   benefits be realized in specialized domains where expertise is rare?
   This study examined discussion forums of an Open Source project in a
   particular specialized application domain - electronic medical records -
   to see how development roles are carried out, and by whom. We found
   through a qualitative analysis that the core developers in this system
   include doctors and clinicians who also use the product. We also found
   that the size of the community associated with the project is an order
   of magnitude smaller than predicted, yet still maintains a high degree
   of responsiveness to issues raised by users. The implication is that a
   few experts and a small core of dedicated programmers can achieve
   success using an Open Source approach in a specialized domain.},

Abstract = {Attributed graphs are powerful tools to represent real-life systems in
   many domains such as social networks, biological metabolic networks,
   consumer recommendation systems and more. Labeling nodes into
   representative groups is an important part in networks analysis and is
   commonly used in tasks such as collaborative filtering as they use both
   node attribute information as well as the edge information. Graph Neural
   Networks (GNNs) provide an expressive methodological framework that
   combines node features and network structure to produce state of the art
   node category classifications. The Regularized Simple Graph Convolution
   Neural Network is a GNN variant utilizing flexible constraints to
   produce a smaller set of weights that help simplify the inference
   process and highlight important features for the users. This paper
   introduces a Python open source software repository which implements the

Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Phenology is one of the most reliable indicators of vegetation dynamics.
   Assessing and monitoring the dynamics of phenology is relevant to
   support several decisions in order to improve the efficiency of several
   farming practices. An open source application QPhenoMetrics -
   implemented in QGIS software that estimates vegetation phenology metrics
   is presented, using Earth Observation Systems (EOS) based time-series of
   Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Enhanced Vegetation
   Index (EVI) as proxies for phenology. QPhenoMetrics is characterized by
   freely-usable and updatable code, acceptance of satellite images or text
   formats, time-series analysis toolbox allowing the selection of region
   of interest with statistical quality assessment for Vegetation Indices
   (VI), and estimation of ensemble metrics. The application is structured
   in three components: (i) input data; (ii) pre-processing of the VI
   time-series and several fitting methods and (iii) computation of the
   phenological metrics. QPhenoMetrics produces a plot with the VI
   time-series and corresponding phenology metrics, and a spreadsheet is
   created with a list of NDVI or EVI values estimated using the selected
   fitting method. To evaluate the application, two main Portuguese crops,
   vineyards and maize, and MOD13 data from MODIS sensor during 2011-2012
   were considered. QPhenoMetrics was validated with vineyard phenology
   observations (2007-2011). A comparative analysis with software products
   TimeSat and Spirits was also performed. It was concluded that
   QPhenoMetrics can be very useful for common users to extract phenology
   information for 16 daily MODIS data in HDF format, text files with
   NDVI/EVI data and ASCII files, through a simple and intuitive graphic
   interface. Furthermore, the user can evaluate the quality assessment of
   VI of the images used. QPhenoMetrics is an effective open source tool
   that in addition to being free, is readily modifiable by user according
   to the study requirements.},

Title = {Using Modified Diffusion Models for Reliability Estimation of Open
   Source Software},
Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {11},
Pages = {51631-51646},
Abstract = {Software development is a highly unpredictable process, and ensuring
   software quality and reliability before releasing it to the market is
   crucial. One of the common practices during software development is the
   reuse of code. It can be achieved by utilizing libraries, frameworks,
   and other reusable components. Practically, when a fault is detected in
   replicated code, developers must check for similar faults in other
   copies, as there is a dependency between faults. To prevent recurrence
   of observed failures, developers must remove the corresponding leading
   fault and any related dependent faults. Many software reliability growth
   models (SRGMs) have been proposed and studied in the past, but most
   SRGMs assume that developers usually detect only one fault causing a
   failure. In actuality, it is necessary to consider the possibility of
   detecting multiple faults that may share similarities or dependencies.
   Additionally, some SRGMs rely on specific assumptions that may not
   always be valid, such as perfect debugging and/or immediate debugging.
   In this study, the modified diffusion models are proposed to handle
   these unrealistic situations, and are expected to better capture the
   dynamics of open source software (OSS) development. Experiments using
   real OSS data show that the proposed models can accurately describe the
   fault correction process of OSS. Finally, an optimal software release
   policy is proposed and studied. This policy takes into account some
   factors, including the remaining number of faults in the software, the
   expenses associated with identifying and rectifying those faults, and
   the level of market demand for the software. By considering these
   factors, developers can determine the optimal time to release the
   software to the market.},

Year = {2020},
Volume = {51},
Number = {1},

Abstract = {Inversion of airborne electromagnetic data is often an iterative
   process, not only requiring that the researcher be able to explore the
   impact of changing components, such as the choice of regularisation
   functional or model parameterisation, but also often requiring that
   forward simulations be run and fields and fluxes visualised in order to
   build an understanding of the physical processes governing what we
   observe in the data. In the hope of facilitating this exploration and
   promoting the reproducibility of geophysical simulations and inversions,
   we have developed the open-source software package SimPEG. The software
   has been designed to be modular and extensible, with the goal of
   allowing researchers to interrogate all of the components and to
   facilitate the exploration of new inversion strategies. We present an
   overview of the software in its application to airborne electromagnetics
   and demonstrate its use for visualising fields and fluxes in a forward
   simulation, as well as its flexibility in formulating and solving the
   inverse problem. We invert a line of airborne time-domain
   electromagnetic data over a conductive vertical plate using a 1D voxel
   inversion, a 2D voxel inversion and a parametric inversion, where all of
   the forward modelling is done on a 3D grid. The results in this paper
   can be reproduced using the provided Jupyter notebooks. The Python
   software can also be modified to allow users to experiment with
   parameters and explore the physics of the electromagnetics and
   intricacies of inversion.},

Abstract = {This study examines user support issues concerning open-source software
   in computational sciences. The literature suggests that there are three
   main problem areas: transparency, learnability, and usability. Looking
   at questions asked in user communities for chemistry software projects,
   the author found that for software supported by feature-based
   documentation, problems of transparency and learnability are prominent,
   leading users to have difficulty reconciling disciplinary practices and
   values with software operations. For software supported by task-based
   documentation, usability problems were more prominent. The author

Abstract = {The Software Defined Radio (SDR) platform continues to shape the Global
   Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) testing and development environment.
   Open source SDR platforms are now being developed and offer GNSS
   development capability to a variety of users that have not previously
   had sufficient resources to be engaged. An open source platform also
   offers many advantages in terms of customization and system development.
   NAVSYS has integrated GNSS waveforms into SDRs such as the Ettus
   Research (TM) USRP (TM) N210 and the Racelogic LabSat devices for use as
   inexpensive GNSS signal simulators. In this paper we show how an open
   source SDR platform can be used with GNU Radio open source architecture
   for building a GNSS signal simulator. We will also show how this can be
   integrated with NAVSYS GNSS Signal Architect Simulator Software for a
   turnkey system to carry out multi-frequency/multi-code generation with
   the option for users to update and modify the signal generation
   software.},

Abstract = {This paper addresses the significant leverage, collaboration, and
   performance that can be obtained with Open-Source Software for
   Geospatial Data Management and Information Systems. Open-source software
   provides the building blocks for advanced geospatial archiving,

   solutions have Proliferated in remote sensing, geographical information
   systems, spatial data engines, and relational databases. Additionally,
   advanced supercomputing capabilities with clusters of commodity personal
   computers can be applied to the management and processing of extremely
   large data sets. These advances have been integrated into
   highly-leveraged systems that can be applied to a wide array of remote
   sensing and geospatial activities. The authors describe the various
   technologies currently available and how these technologies have been
   integrated into an online Data Management System. Examples of the
   application of this system to multiple application areas are described
   Examples include custom processing and organization of satellite,
   aerial, raster map, and vector data sets.},

Abstract = {PPP\_Mansoura is a new software that can process multi-GNSS data work on
   MATLAB environment and linked with C\# in the preprocessing stage. It
   gives highly accurate results and provides a results file for each
   epoch, and the users can choose the GNSS system they want to run with
   the primary systems (GPS or GLONASS) and all this with simple MATLAB
   Code. For testing the software, we processed the raw data (RINEX 3) from
   17 MGEX stations for 24 h data during 1-week with a 30-s interval time
   and submitted it to the new software and PPPH software. The averaged
   positioning errors obtained from PPP\_Mansoura and PPPH were 5.14 mm and
   6.9 mm respectively, for the East direction, 11.6 mm and 14 mm for the
   North direction, and 14.56 mm and 20.4 mm respectively for the Up
   direction, the averaged convergence time obtained from PPP\_Mansoura and
   PPPH were 35.3 min and 54.47 min, so the results show that PPP\_Mansoura
   give results with high accuracy can be comparable with PPP standards

Abstract = {From the software point of view, the development of IoT applications
   differs from other kinds of applications due to the specific features
   that the former exhibit. In this paper, we investigate how developers
   contribute to IoT applications in the Open Source Software (OSS)
   context, to gain a deeper understanding of how their work differs from
   that of non-IoT applications. To that end, we conducted a quantitative
   analysis of a broad set of the 60 most popular publicly available IoT
   and non-IoT projects on GitHub. By comparing how developers contribute
   to these projects, our analysis provides insight into the purpose and
   characteristics of the code, the behavior of the contributors, and the
   maturity of the IoT software development ecosystem. Results reveal
   significant differences between IoT and non-IoT application development,
   in terms of how applications are realized, in the diversity of
   developers; specializations, and in how code is reused. This work
   provides evidence about some Open Source IoT software development
   peculiarities to be considered by future research efforts aimed at
   better satisfying software engineering needs in the IoT scenario.},

Abstract = {Mobile application developers rely heavily on opensource software (OSS)
   to offload common functionalities such as the implementation of
   protocols and media format playback. Over the past years, several
   vulnerabilities have been found in popular open-source libraries like
   OpenSSL and FFmpeg. Mobile applications that include such libraries
   inherit these flaws, which make them vulnerable. Fortunately, the
   open-source community is responsive and patches are made available
   within days. However, mobile application developers are often left
   unaware of these flaws. The App Security Improvement Program (ASIP) is a
   commendable effort by Google to notify application developers of these
   flaws, but recent work has shown that many developers do not act on this
   information.
   Our work addresses vulnerable mobile applications through automatic
   binary patching from source patches provided by the OSS maintainers and
   without involving the developers. We propose novel techniques to
   overcome difficult challenges like patching feasibility analysis,
   source-code-to-binary-code matching, and in-memory patching. Our
   technique uses a novel variability-aware approach, which we implement as
   OSSPATCHER. We evaluated OSSPATCHER with 39 OSS and a collection of
   1,000 Android applications using their vulnerable versions. OSSPATCHER
   generated 675 function-level patches that fixed the affected mobile
   applications without breaking their binary code. Further, we evaluated
   10 vulnerabilities in popular apps such as Chrome with public exploits,
   which OSSPATCHER was able to mitigate and thwart their exploitation.},

Journal = {MOLECULAR INFORMATICS},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {38},
Number = {8-9, SI},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Ambit-GCM is a new software tool for group contribution modelling (GCM),
   developed as a part of the chemoinformatics platform AMBIT. It is an
   open-source tool distributed under LGPL license, written in Java and
   based on the Chemistry Development Kit. Ambit-GCM provides an
   environment for creating models of molecular properties using additive
   schemes of zero, first or second orders. Ambit-GCM supports a set of
   local atomic attributes used for dynamic configuration of desired atom
   descriptions, which are applied to define fragments of different sizes.
   All defined groups are exhaustively generated for each molecule from a
   training set of compounds and combined to form the basic set of GCM
   fragments. Additionally, Ambit-GCM users can define correction factors
   via custom SMARTS notations or add externally calculated molecular
   descriptors. A molecular property model is obtained as a sum over all
   found groups by multiplying each group or correction factor frequency to
   its corresponding contribution. Multiple linear regression analysis
   (MLRA) is used for group contributions calculation. Ambit-GCM performs
   full statistical characterization of the obtained MLRA models via
   various validation techniques: external tests validation, cross
   validation, y-scrambling, etc. The software can be optionally used only
   for molecule fragmentation combined with an external statistical
   modelling package for further processing. Ambit-GCM example usage and
   test cases are given.},

   Static metrics for defect density prediction require extraction of
   abstract information from the code. Repository metrics, on the other
   hand, are easy to extract from the repository data sets. In this paper,
   an analysis has been performed over repository metrics of open source
   software. Further, defect density is being predicted using these metrics
   individually and jointly. Sixty two open source software are considered
   for analysis using Simple and Multiple Linear Regression methods as
   statistical procedures. The results reveal a statistically significant

Abstract = {During Open Source Software (OSS) development, users submit ``new

   During the introduction of NFs and IMPs, the source code files change. A
   proportion of these source code changes may result in generation of
   bugs. We have developed calendar time and entropy-dependent mathematical
   models to represent the growth of OSS based on the rate at which NFs are
   added, IMPs are added, and bugs introduction rate.The empirical
   validation has been conducted on five products, namely ``Avro, Pig,

   twenty years and many open source products are now considered similar,

   software - both concerning its development and its usage - it is likely
   that the motivations for adopting an open source rather than a
   proprietary product have changed over time. The goal of this work is to
   identify the current motivations for adopting open source software, and
   compare them with the motivations that held in the past. We conducted a
   set of interviews among software practitioners, asking them to rank
   motivations for the adoption of open source software, and we compared
   these new results with the motivations elicited in previous surveys

Abstract = {Deciding if an OSS project meets the required standards for adoption is
   hard, and keeping up-to-date with a rapidly evolving project is even
   harder. Making decisions about quality and adoption involves analysing
   code, documentation, online discussions, and issue trackers. There is
   too much information to process manually and it is common that
   uninformed decisions have to be made with detrimental effects.
   CROSSMINER aims to remedy this by automatically extracting the required
   knowledge and injecting it into the developers' Integrated Development
   Environments (IDE), at the time they need it to make design decisions.
   This allows them to reduce their effort in knowledge acquisition and to
   increase the quality of their code. CROSSMINER uniquely combines
   advanced software project analyses with online IDE monitoring.
   Developers will be monitored to infer which information is timely, based
   on readily available knowledge stored earlier by a set of advanced
   offline deep analyses of related OSS projects.},

Abstract = {Orbotech, as part of the Israeli Software Reuse Industrial Consortium
   (ISWRIC), explored the possibilities of software reuse in a three-year
   project, supported by the Israel Ministry of Trade and Commerce. The
   positive economical results of the project made software reuse a common
   practice at Orbotech. Further experimentation of reusing Open Source
   Software (OSS) demonstrated the high potential of that approach, when
   carefully integrated with the standard organizational development
   process. The conclusions from Orbotech experience are that when
   carefully planned and implemented, software reuse provides the
   anticipated benefits of cost reduction, improved quality and shorter
   Time-to-Market. The reuse of OSS may provide even higher benefits than
   conventional software reuse. Nevertheless, as in many cases before,
   implementation of software reuse requires management support and
   commitment, as well as acceptance by the developers themselves. As such,
   software reuse implementation proves to be a complex task that needs to
   be tailored specifically to the implementing organization.},

Abstract = {Research in ultrasound imaging is limited in reproducibility by two
   factors: First, many existing ultrasound pipelines are protected by
   intellectual property, rendering exchange of code difficult. Second,
   most pipelines are implemented in special hardware, resulting in limited
   flexibility of implemented processing steps on such platforms.
   With SUPRA, we propose an open-source pipeline for fully
   software-defined ultrasound processing for real-time applications to
   alleviate these problems. Covering all steps from beamforming to output
   of B-mode images, SUPRA can help improve the reproducibility of results
   and make modifications to the image acquisition mode accessible to the
   research community. We evaluate the pipeline qualitatively,
   quantitatively, and regarding its run time.
   The pipeline shows image quality comparable to a clinical system and
   backed by point spread function measurements a comparable resolution.
   Including all processing stages of a usual ultrasound pipeline, the
   run-time analysis shows that it can be executed in 2D and 3D on consumer
   GPUs in real time.
   Our software ultrasound pipeline opens up the research in image
   acquisition. Given access to ultrasound data from early stages (raw
   channel data, radiofrequency data), it simplifies the development in
   imaging. Furthermore, it tackles the reproducibility of research
   results, as code can be shared easily and even be executed without
   dedicated ultrasound hardware.},

Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Context: Free and Open Source Software is widely used in the research
   community and the software industry. In this context, developers come
   across various issues they need to handle in order to use and create
   software responsibly and without causing legal violations. For instance,
   using open source software that carries a specific license or how
   contributions to open source software should be handled are among the
   issues that need to be considered.Objective: As practitioners turn
   primarily to Q\&A sites to seek help, it is important to understand
   which specific open source software issues they face. In this research,
   our main objective is to provide a categorization of open source
   software problems present in the user questions of the Open Source Stack
   Exchange site and perform a meta-analysis on the encountered
   questions.Method: We have performed a qualitative study analyzing
   manually 1,500 most popular posts in the Open Source Stack Exchange site
   and have mapped them to categories and more generic clusters. The coding
   task was performed in iterations with the participation of three of the
   authors. Agreement was calculated and cases of disagreement were
   resolved. Meta-analysis on questions and answers was also performed for
   discussion purposes.Results: We have created 26 categories of problems
   discussed in the Open Source Stack Exchange site, and grouped them into
   6 clusters. Our results show that posts on license texts/conditions and
   license/copyright notices are more common, whereas posts on license
   differences are the most popular in terms of views by other
   users.Conclusion: The results can assist any participant of the open
   source software community to understand on which basic issues she should
   focus on to gain a good understanding of open source software. They are
   also useful for improving education on open source software and
   community support using the implications presented for each category.},

   are common nowadays. This makes choosing a tricky task. Quality is one
   factor that can be considered when choosing among similar open source

   traditional quality models to measure unique features (such as
   community) of open source software. The aim of the paper therefore is to
   examine the characteristic features, unique strengths, and limitations
   of existing open source quality models. In addition, we compare the

Abstract = {This paper presents the Tools4MSP software package, a Python-based Free
   and Open Source Software (FOSS) for geospatial analysis in support of
   Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) and marine environmental management. The
   suite was initially developed within the ADRIPLAN data portal, that has
   been recently upgraded into the Tools4MSP Geoplatform
   (data.tools4msp.eu), an integrated web platform that supports MSP
   through the application of different tools, e.g., collaborative
   geospatial modelling of cumulative effects assessment (CEA) and marine
   use conflict (MUC) analysis. The package can be used as stand-alone
   library or as collaborative webtool, providing userfriendly interfaces
   appropriate to decision-makers, regional authorities, academics and MSP
   stakeholders. An effective MSP-oriented integrated system of web-based
   software, users and services is proposed. It includes four components:
   the Tools4MSP Geoplatform for interoperable and collaborative sharing of
   geospatial datasets and for MSP-oriented analysis, the Tools4MSP package
   as stand-alone library for advanced geospatial and statistical analysis,
   the desktop applications to simplify data curation and the third party
   data repositories for multidisciplinary and multilevel geospatial
   datasets integration. The paper presents an application example of the
   Tools4MSP GeoNode plugin and an example of Tools4MSP stand-alone library
   for CEA in the Adriatic Sea. The Tools4MSP and the developed software
   have been released as FOSS under the GPL 3 license and are currently
   under further development.},

Abstract = {It has become common practice to automate data acquisition from

   program that processes a series of text-based commands that define the
   measurement sequence. These commands are in an intuitive format which
   provides great flexibility and allows quick and easy adaptation to
   various measurement needs. For each of these commands, the iC-framework
   calls a corresponding Java method that addresses the specified
   instrument to perform the desired task. The functionality of iC can be
   extended with minimal programming effort in Java or Python, and new
   measurement equipment can be addressed by defining new commands in a
   text file without any programming.},

Abstract = {The core mission of university libraries is to provide access to books,
   journals, data and primary sources to enhance and enable research and
   education. Because students are accustomed to gathering information
   using commercial search engines, they can overlook high-quality library
   resources. To connect with student researchers when they need library
   resources, many libraries have built online research guides tied to
   specific subjects and courses. These guides can address specific
   assignments where research is required, and course instructors can point
   students to the guides to assist them in completing their research
   assignments successfully. In 2006, Oregon State University (OSU)
   Libraries developed an open source software product called Library a la
   Carte that librarians can use to construct research guides easily and
   quickly. The code was made available to other libraries, and a number of
   institutions have adopted the tool. A successful user community has
   grown up around Library a la Carte, but development up to this point has
   been the sole responsibility of OSU Libraries. We are now embarking on
   building a robust developer community, to contribute code, to build
   additional features and to take Library a la Carte into the future. As
   part of our plan to move forward, we are testing a hosted (cloud-based)
   version of the software. This paper introduces Library a la Carte,
   presents what was learned from the test and discusses moving forward
   with building a developer community. In addition, we touch on the
   benefits and challenges of building and sustaining an open source
   product from the ground up.},

Abstract = {FREEWAT is an HORIZON 2020 project financed by the EU Commission under
   the call WATER INNOVATION: BOOSTING ITS VALUE FOR EUROPE. FREEWAT main
   result will be an open source and public domain GIS integrated modelling

   water and groundwater with an integrated water management and planning
   module. FREEWAT aims at promoting water resource management by
   simplifying the application of the Water Framework Directive and other
   EU water related Directives. Specific objectives of the FREEWAT project
   are: to coordinate previous EU and national funded research to integrate
   existing software modules for water management in a single environment
   into the GIS based FREEWAT; to support the FREEWAT application in an
   innovative participatory approach gathering technical staff and relevant
   stakeholders (in primis policy and decision makers) in designing
   scenarios for the proper application of water policies.
   The open source characteristics of the platform allow to consider this
   an initiative ``ad includendum{''} (looking for inclusion of other
   entities), as further research institutions, private developers etc. may
   contribute to the platform development.
   Through creating a common environment among water
   research/professionals, policy makers and implementers, FREEWAT main
   impact will be on enhancing science- and participatory approach and
   evidence-based decision making in water resource management, hence
   producing relevant and appropriate outcomes for policy implementation.
   The Consortium is constituted by partners from various water sectors
   from 10 EU countries, plus Turkey and Ukraine. Synergies with the UNESCO
   HOPE initiative on free and open source software in water management
   greatly boost the value of the project. Large stakeholders involvement
   is thought to guarantee results dissemination and exploitation.},

Abstract = {Ultrasound-based Elastography is being used to augment in vivo
   characterization of breast lesions. Results from a meta-analysis of all
   clinical trials (up to 2011) indicated a lack of confidence in image
   interpretation. Such confidence can only be gained through rigorous
   imaging tests using complex, heterogeneous but known media. Our
   objective of this study is to build a virtual breast phantom lab in the
   public domain that can be used for rigorous imaging testing of this
   kind. Main thrust of this work is to streamline biomedical ultrasound
   simulations in conjunction with anatomically complex (software) phantoms
   by leveraging existing open source software packages including K-wave or
   Field II (acoustic simulation), VTK (data visualization and processing),
   FEBio (biomechanical deformation) and Tetgen (mesh generation). The
   integration of these four open source packages was based on a simple
   message-passing scheme to facilitate its use among imaging scientists.
   In this study, we demonstrated that a complex and heterogeneous
   (virtual) breast phantom can be derived from medical imaging data, i.e.
   publically available Visible Human Project data through US National
   Institutes of Health. Three volumes of interest were selected from the
   proposed virtual breast phantom to perform acoustic simulations using a
   virtual linear array transducer (6MHz and 80\% bandwidth). Our initial
   results showed that simulated B-mode images accurately represented the
   underlying complex but known medium. In order to demonstrate
   applications in elastography, the virtual breast phantom was also
   deformed using finite element simulations. The resultant simulated
   strain image depicted complex patterns that were normally seen in
   clinical data.
   In conclusion, the proposed virtual software infrastructure can perform
   sophisticated ultrasound simulations in conjunction with complex and
   heterogeneous media. It is our intent that, in the future, the proposed
   virtual software infrastructure will be available to the research
   community for use in creation complex imaging benchmark tests for
   algorithm testing and validation. Furthermore, the proposed virtual
   platform can also be tailored to meet specific research needs by
   potential users themselves in an open science fashion. Collectively,
   these activities will accelerate development of ultrasound imaging
   including elastography.},

   automating and optimizing the contribution process, coordination among
   an increasing number of contributors remains as a challenge due to the
   asynchronous and self-organized nature of distributed development. In
   particular, duplicate contributions, where multiple different
   contributors unintentionally submit duplicate pull requests to achieve
   the same goal, are an elusive problem that may waste effort in automated
   testing, code review and software maintenance. While the issue of
   duplicate pull requests has been highlighted, to what extent duplicate
   pull requests affect the development in OSS communities has not been
   well investigated. In this paper, we conduct a mixed-approach study to
   bridge this gap. Based on a comprehensive dataset constructed from 26
   popular GitHub projects, we obtain the following findings: (a) Duplicate
   pull requests result in redundant human and computing resources,
   exerting a significant impact on the contribution and evaluation
   process. (b) Contributors' inappropriate working patterns and the
   drawbacks of their collaborating environment might result in duplicate
   pull requests. (c) Compared to non-duplicate pull requests, duplicate
   pull requests have significantly different features, e.g., being
   submitted by inexperienced contributors, being fixing bugs, touching
   cold files, and solving tracked issues. (d) Integrators choosing between
   duplicate pull requests prefer to accept those with early submission
   time, accurate and high-quality implementation, broad coverage, test
   code, high maturity, deep discussion, and active response. Finally,
   actionable suggestions and implications are proposed for OSS
   practitioners.},

Abstract = {With the wide adoption and acceptance of open source version control and
   hosting systems, more and more companies, including Google, Microsoft,
   Apple and Facebook, are putting their projects on such platforms, e.g.,
   GitHub. It is very important for open source projects to be impactful,
   i.e., to attract attentions from the open source development community,
   so as to gain support on development, testing as well as maintenance
   from the community. However, the question of what factors affect open
   source project impact, remains largely open. Given the numerous
   confounding factors and the complex correlations among the factors, it
   is a challenge to answer the question. In this study, we gather a large
   dataset from GitHub and provide empirical insights on this question base
   on a data-driven approach. We randomly collect 146, 286 projects from
   GitHub and then adopt data analysis techniques to automatically analyze
   the correlations of different features with the software project impact.
   We also provide suggestions on how to potentially make open source
   projects impactful base on our analysis results.},

Abstract = {Currently, open source software communities are thriving and the number
   of projects that are available through well known code repositories is
   rapidly increasing The amount of code that is freely available to
   developers facilitates high reuse opportunities. One of the major
   concerns of developers when reusing code is the quality of the code that
   is going to be reused. Design patterns are well known solutions that are
   reported to produce substantial benefits with respect to software
   quality. In this paper, we investigate the extent to which design
   patterns are employed in open source software. More specifically, this
   study reports empirical results based on the number and type of design
   patterns retrieved from open source software projects. Up to now, one
   hundred and eight (108) open source software projects of various
   characteristics have been considered. The results of the study suggest
   that several patterns are more frequently used in open source software
   than others, that some patterns are more applicable in some categories
   than others and that program size, number of downloads, days of project
   activity and the number of developers are crucial factors that influence
   the use of design patterns in open source software project.},

Abstract = {Motivation: Society's dependence on Open Source Software (OSS) and the
   communities that maintain the OSS is ever-growing. So are the potential
   risks of, e.g., vulnerabilities being introduced in projects not
   actively maintained. By assessing an OSS project's capability to stay
   viable and maintained over time without interruption or weakening, i.e.,
   the OSS health, users can consider the risk implied by using the OSS as
   is, and if necessary, decide whether to help improve the health or
   choose another option. However, such assessment is complex as OSS health
   covers a wide range of subtopics, and existing support is limited. Aim:
   We aim to create an overview of characteristics that affect the health
   of an OSS project and enable the assessment thereof. Method: We conduct
   a snowball literature review based on a start set of 9 papers, and
   identify 146 relevant papers over two iterations of forward and backward
   snowballing. Health characteristics are elicited and coded using
   structured and axial coding into a framework structure. Results: The
   final framework consists of 107 health characteristics divided among 15
   themes. Characteristics address the socio-technical spectrum of the
   community of actors maintaining the OSS project, the software and other
   deliverables being maintained, and the orchestration facilitating the
   maintenance. Characteristics are further divided based on the level of
   abstraction they address, i.e., the OSS project-level specifically, or
   the project's overarching ecosystem of related OSS projects. Conclusion:
   The framework provides an overview of the wide span of health
   characteristics that may need to be considered when evaluating OSS
   health and can serve as a foundation both for research and practice.},

Abstract = {Many health informatics organizations seem to be slow to take up the
   advantages of dynamic, web-based technologies for providing services to,

   paper aims to introduce some of the many free/libre/open source (FLOSS)
   applications that are now available to develop interactive websites and

   Some background introduction to FLOSS applications is used for the
   benefit of those less familiar with such toots, and examples of some of
   the FLOSS content management systems (CMS) being used by OSNI are
   described. The experiences of the OSNI will facilitate a knowledgeable

Abstract = {Plagiarism in software code and hardware design threatens the
   open-source movement and the software and hardware industries. It is
   essential to differentiate between the unethical act of plagiarism and
   the legitimate use of open-source resources. Existing copyright
   protection measures, such as license design, inadequately address
   copyright ownership and protection issues. Furthermore, they fail to
   detect plagiarism methods for open-source hardware projects, such as
   circuit location modification. To address these challenges, this paper
   proposes a blockchain-based copyright management scheme, which
   introduces a general originality detection model based on community
   detection, extracting adjustable granularity digests from code and
   design files. These digests are stored on a peer-to-peer blockchain,
   enabling nodes to verify the originality via smart contracts.
   Additionally, the scheme improves the storage structure, protecting the
   rights of authors and contributors. Experimental results demonstrate the
   effectiveness and runtime efficiency of the proposed model in extracting
   digests for blockchain storage while maintaining verification accuracy.
   The scheme offers enhanced generality, practical performance, and
   suitability for distributed development and maintenance, with
   considerable implications for evidence gathering, fostering innovation
   and integrity.},

Journal = {SOFTWAREX},
Year = {2020},

Month = {JAN-JUN},
Abstract = {The National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) is a foundational geospatial data
   source in the United States that enables extensive and diverse
   environmental research and supports decision-making in numerous
   contexts. However, the NHD requires regular validation and update given
   possible inconsistent initial collection and hydrographic changes.
   Furthermore, systems or tools that use NHD data must manage regular
   updates that occur within the high-resolution version of the NHD (NHD
   HR). This research contributes to filling this gap by establishing an
   open-source software tool named OpenCLC, which automatically identifies
   matching and mismatching line features between two sets of hydrographic
   flowlines. Aside from identifying differences among two version of NHD
   lines, results can be applied to improve the quality of NHD HR content.
   OpenCLC significantly outperforms the best available commercial
   off-the-shelf software in computational scalability, and it is made
   widely available as part of the CyberGIS Toolkit to benefit broad
   environmental and geospatial science communities. (C) 2020 The Authors.

Abstract = {Learning software security has become a complex and difficult task today
   than it was even a decade ago. With the increased complexity of computer
   systems and a variety of applications, it is hard for software
   developers to master the expertise required to deal with the variety of
   security concepts, methods, and technologies that are required in
   software projects. Although a large number of security learning
   materials are widely available in books, open literature or on the
   Internet, they are difficult for learners to understand the rationale of
   security topics and correlate the concepts with real software scenarios.
   We argue that the traditional approach, which usually organizes
   knowledge content topically, with security-centric, is not suitable to
   motivate learners and stimulate learners' interest. To tackle this
   learning issue, our research is focused on forging a contextualized
   learning environment for software security where learners can explore
   security knowledge and relate it to the context that they are familiar
   with. This learning system is developed base on our proposed
   context-based learning approach and based on ontological technologies.
   In this paper, we present our evaluation study in the open source
   software (OSS) development environment. Our results demonstrate that
   contextualized learning can help OSS developers identify their necessary
   security information, improve learning efficiency and make security
   knowledge more meaningful for their software development tasks},

   this work is its illustration of the close association between open

   software has some obstacles most notably as there are no clear and
   reliable criteria for selecting these systems. Current study has
   concluded a set of recommendations, notably awareness of the role and

   debugging and testing software applications on a continual basis.
   Furthermore current software development is typically performed in a
   distributed environment involving many developers. While the use of
   open-source software may create collaborative communities that enhance
   overall technology exchange, it does nothing directly to manage change
   nor does it address the quality of the underlying software. This paper
   describes a software development process that has proven vital to the
   success of the widely used open-source toolkits ITK (itk.org) and VTK
   (vtk.org). This process facilitates cross-platform development, includes
   automatic documentation generation, integrates continuous testing, and
   posts the results of the process on publicly accessible web pages. The
   net result is that a responsive feedback loop is created between the
   developers in the community and automated processes to measure software
   quality. With this process software converges towards better software as
   long as the process is enforced. The tools described here are
   open-source and available for use in academic and commercial
   applications.},

   SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT},
Journal = {MIS QUARTERLY},

Volume = {48},
Number = {1},

Abstract = {In this study we identify a process of ``entrainment{''} around open
   source software (OSS) development release cycles to capture patterns of
   self -organized task allocation among developers. We conducted an
   abductive, computationally intensive study of eight OSS projects, using
   relational event modeling to analyze 1,169,489 actions covering 93 major
   software releases. The process of entrainment that we identify involves
   three task allocation mechanisms: (1) developer -issue inertia, (2)
   developer contribution frequency, and (3) issue popularity. Our analysis
   demonstrates that these mechanisms and the phases of the release cycle
   entrain each other. Before a major release, developers engage in a
   concentrated mobilization phase, whereby they democratize development
   activity and increasingly allocate community contributions to the set of
   issues related to the release. After a major release, the extended
   cleanup phase garners a greater share of development work from recently
   highly active developers and dilutes the activity of these developers
   across a wider range of issues. Our theorizing suggests that major
   releases constitute important events around which OSS communities self
   -organize and we characterize how this occurs. Our research contributes
   to theorizing on organizing in OSS communities by explaining how
   selforganizing task allocation interacts with release cycles through the
   mechanism of entrainment. We also contribute to the literature on
   entrainment by showing how it may unfold in the context of online peer
   production communities such as OSS.},

Journal = {FACETS},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {5},
Pages = {289-303},
Month = {MAY 7},
Abstract = {Computational methods, coding, and software are important tools for
   conducting research. In both academic and industry data analytics,
   open-source software (OSS) has gained massive popularity. Collaborative
   source code allows students to interact with researchers, code
   developers, and users from a variety of disciplines. Based on the
   authors' experiences as graduate students and coding instructors, this
   paper provides a unique overview of the obstacles that graduate students
   face in obtaining the knowledge and skills required to complete their
   research and in transitioning from an OSS user to a contributor:
   psychological, practical, and cultural barriers and challenges specific
   to graduate students including cognitive load in graduate school, the
   importance of a knowledgeable mentor, seeking help from both the online
   and local communities, and the ongoing campaign to recognize software as
   research output in career and degree progression. Specific and practical
   steps are recommended to provide a foundation for graduate students,
   supervisors, administrators, and members of the OSS community to help
   overcome these obstacles. In conclusion, the objective of these
   recommendations is to describe a possible framework that individuals
   from across the scientific community can adapt to their needs and
   facilitate a sustainable feedback loop between graduate students and
   OSS.},

Abstract = {Nowadays, companies and organizations pay more attention to the use of

   Reviewing numerous papers found in the literature, this study aims to
   collect a complete list of risks that may influence the open source
   migration process as much as possible. It also provides a new
   categorization of the risks by which each risk is classified based on
   its type (organizational, technical, and environmental), and its time of
   occurrence (before, during, and after migration). Moreover, this paper
   proposes a number of conceivable measures to mitigate each risk; some of
   them are proposed for the first time in this area of research. The
   results of this study can help organizations' decision makers to make
   better decisions in the open source migration process.},

Abstract = {When newcomers try to join an open source software (OSS) project, they
   face many barriers that hinder their first contribution, leading in many
   cases to their dropping out. Many projects leverage the contribution of
   outsiders, and the sustainability of the project relies on retaining
   some of these newcomers. This research aims to identify the barriers
   that hinder newcomers' onboarding to OSS projects. Our method consisted
   of a qualitative study conducted with data obtained from four different
   sources: (i) systematic literature review; (ii) feedback from nine
   graduate and undergraduate students after they tried to join OSS
   projects; (iii) 24 responses to a questionnaire sent to 9 OSS projects;
   and (iv) semi-structured interviews with 36 subjects from 14 different
   projects, including newcomers and experienced members. The method to
   select the candidate papers in the systematic literature review was
   querying four digital libraries and backward snowballing. The data
   obtained from the practitioners from all three sources, and the primary
   studies obtained in the systematic review were analyzed using used
   procedures of Grounded Theory's open and axial coding. The analysis
   resulted in a conceptual model composed of 58 barriers, grouped into six
   different categories: cultural differences, newcomers' characteristics,
   reception issues, orientation, technical hurdles, and documentation
   problems. We could observe recurrent barriers evidenced in different
   data sources. We could notice that the onboarding process of a newcomer
   to an OSS can be a tough task. This research brings empirical support
   relying on data from different sources, organizes and discusses the
   existing common wisdom about barriers faced by newcomers to OSS
   projects, which deserve attention from researchers and OSS communities.},

Abstract = {High-throughput screening is a powerful technology principally used by
   pharmaceutical industries allowing the identification of molecules of
   interest within large libraries. Originally target based, cellular
   assays provide a way to test compounds (or other biological material
   such as small interfering RNA) in a more physiologically realistic in
   vitro environment. High-content screening (HCS) platforms are now
   available at lower cost, giving the opportunity for universities or
   research institutes to access those technologies for research purposes.
   However, the amount of information extracted from each experiment is
   multiplexed and hence difficult to handle. In such context, there is an
   important need for an easy-to-use, but still powerful software able to
   manage multidimensional screening data by performing adapted quality
   control and classification. HCS-analyzer includes: a user-friendly
   interface specifically dedicated to HCS readouts, an automated approach
   to identify systematic errors potentially occurring during screening and
   a set of tools to classify, cluster and identify phenotypes of interest
   among large and multivariate data.},

Abstract = {Increased popularity of open source software (OSS) has led to a
   considerable proliferation of alternative software. However, there is a
   lack of studies in literature that shed light into the evaluation of OSS
   by organizations. In this article, a method to evaluate reliability and
   maintainability of OSS by using both code-based and community-based
   aspects is proposed through the synthesis of existing studies in
   literature. To perform code-based evaluation, some internal attributes
   of the most recent quality model, ISO/IEC 25010, are selected and
   object-oriented C\&K metrics are employed in an attempt to measure these
   attributes. To perform community-based evaluation, metrics derived from
   historical data such as e-mailing lists, problem reports, frequently
   asked questions, and etc. are utilized to identify and satisfy
   information needs as conformant to ISO/IEC 15939 standard for software
   measurement process. The two-dimensional method was used in selection of
   the Java build tools written in Java, and the results obtained by
   applying the proposed method and the results obtained by using OSMM and
   OpenBRR which are common methods in the literature were compared.
   According to the evaluation and comparison results, the results obtained
   with the existing models confirm each other and the results obtained

Abstract = {Refactoring is a well-established practice that aims at improving the

   developers perform refactoring in practice. In this paper, we continue
   on this line of research by performing a large-scale empirical analysis
   of refactoring practices in 200 open source systems. Specifically, we
   analyze the change history of these systems at commit level to
   investigate: (i) whether developers perform refactoring operations and,
   if so, which are more diffused and (ii) when refactoring operations are
   applied, and (iii) which are the main developer-oriented factors leading
   to refactoring. Based on our results, future research can focus on
   enabling automatic support for less frequent refactorings and on
   recommending refactorings based on the developer's workload, project's
   maturity and developer's commitment to the project. (C) 2019 Elsevier

Journal = {PLANT METHODS},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {21},
Number = {1},
Month = {FEB 4},
Abstract = {Genomic-assisted breeding has transitioned from theoretical concepts to
   practical applications in breeding. Genomic selection (GS) predicts
   genomic breeding values (GEBV) using dense genetic markers. Single-stage
   models predict GEBVs from phenotypic observations in one step, fully
   accounting for the entire variance-covariance structure among genotypes,
   but face computational challenges. Two-stage models, preferred for their
   simplicity and efficiency, first calculate adjusted genotypic means
   accounting for spatial variation within each environment, then use these
   means to predict GEBVs. However, unweighted (UNW) two-stage models
   assume independent errors among adjusted means, neglecting correlations
   among estimation errors. Here, we show that fully-efficient two-stage
   models perform similarly to UNW models for randomized complete block
   designs but substantially better for augmented designs. Our simulation
   studies demonstrate the impact of the fully-efficient methodology on
   prediction accuracy across different implementations and scenarios.
   Incorporating non-additive effects and augmented designs significantly
   improved accuracy, emphasizing the synergy between design and model
   strategy. Consistent performance requires the estimation error
   covariance to be incorporated into a random effect (Full\_R model)
   rather than into the residuals. Our results suggest that the
   fully-efficient methodology, particularly the Full\_R model, should be
   more prevalent, especially as GS increases the appeal of sparse designs.
   We also provide a comprehensive theoretical background and open-source R
   code, enhancing understanding and facilitating broader adoption of
   fully-efficient two-stage models in GS. Here, we offer insights into the
   practical applications of fully-efficient models and their potential to
   increase genetic gain, demonstrating a

   automatically resolve, download and install hundreds of open source
   packages throughout the software life cycle. Even though many approaches
   for detection and discovery of vulnerable packages exist, no prior work
   has focused on malicious packages. This paper presents a dataset as well
   as analysis of 174 malicious software packages that were used in
   real-world attacks on open source software supply chains and which were

   single object-oriented framework in C++ using OOP design patterns. The
   bulk of the original work consisted mainly of finding common objects
   which will work for these different modeling methods without changing a
   single line of the C++ code. With this approach it is possible to add
   new numerical models by only plugging-in the corresponding formulas. The
   advantages of the resulting YADE framework are the following: (1)
   generic design provides great flexibility when adding new scientific
   simulation code, (2) numerous simulation methods can be coupled within
   the same framework like for example DEM/FEM and (3) with the open-source
   philosophy, the community of users collaborate and improve the software.

Abstract = {The collaborative pattern of developers in OSS (Open Source Software)
   communities is a research-hotspot in the academic circle. However, the
   existing researches mainly concern the static features of the
   communication network of community members, and few studies involve the
   structural evolution of developer collaboration network in OSS
   communities. This paper constructs the developer collaboration network
   of the Cloud Foundry OSS community by coding-collaboration
   relationships, and then analyses the structure and evolution of the
   constructed network. The results show that a modular pattern centering
   on a few developers gradually emerges in the developer collaboration
   network after an evolutionary process of three stages. Core developers
   have completed a large proportion of the development work and played a
   coordinating role in development activities, while the periphery
   developers submit code to specific sub-projects according to their
   technical background, which complements the core developers' work.
   Furthermore, the modules of the developer collaboration network are
   intrinsically related to the sub-projects and continuously contribute
   code for the corresponding subprojects during the evolutionary process.
   These results may deepen our understandings of the collaborative pattern
   of OSS communities, and also have some reference value for the studies
   of open collaborative innovation in large scale crowds.},

Abstract = {This work investigates crystallization modeling by modifying an
   open-source computational fluid dynamics code OpenFOAM. The
   crystallization behavior of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) is
   implemented according to theoretical and experimental literature. A
   number of physical interdependencies are included. The cavity is modeled
   as deformable. The heat transfer coefficient in the thermal contact
   towards the mold depends on contact pressure. The thermal conductivity
   is pressure- and crystallinity-dependent. Specific heat depends on
   temperature and crystallinity. Latent heat is released according to the
   crystallization progress and temperature. Deviatoric elastic stress is
   evolved in the solidified material. The prediction of the cavity
   pressure evolution is used for the assessment of the solution quality
   because it is experimentally available and governs the residual stress
   development. Insight into the thermomechanical conditions is provided
   with through-thickness plots of pressure, temperature and cooling rate
   at different levels of crystallinity. The code and simulation setup are
   made openly available to further the research on the topic.},

Abstract = {Speech recognition has become increasingly popular in radiology
   reporting in the last decade. However, developing a speech recognition
   system for a new language in a highly specific domain requires a lot of
   resources, expert knowledge and skills. Therefore, commercial vendors do
   not offer ready-made radiology speech recognition systems for
   less-resourced languages.
   This paper describes the implementation of a radiology speech
   recognition system for Estonian. a language with less than one million
   native speakers. The system was developed in partnership with a hospital
   that provided a corpus of written reports for language modeling
   purposes. Rewrite rules for pre-processing training texts and
   postprocessing recognition results were created manually based on a
   small parallel corpus created by the hospital's radiologists, using the
   Thrax toolkit. Deep neural network based acoustic models were trained
   based on 216 hours of out-of-domain data and adapted on 14 hours of
   spoken radiology data, using the Kaldi toolkit. The current word error
   rate of the system is 5.4\%. The system is in active use in real
   clinical environment.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) development is an increasingly important
   paradigm of software development. However, key aspects of OSS such as
   the determinants of project success and motivations of developers in
   joining these projects are not well understood. Based on organizational
   theory, we propose that OSS activities of patch development and feature
   request can be classified as exploitation (implementation-oriented) and
   exploration (innovation-oriented) activities, respectively. We
   empirically examine how the structure of social network affects the
   success of patch-development and feature-request networks in OSS
   projects, using a data set collected from the SourceForge database. Our
   results provide empirical support for the view that patch development
   and feature request are exploitation and exploration activities,
   respectively. Network structures differ due to team formation
   differences and have a differential impact on development success based
   on the type of activity. The concepts of ambidextrous developers and
   ambidexterity are explored in the context of OSS projects. Collectively,
   our results indicate that studying OSS projects at the artifact level
   could improve our understanding of OSS project success and team
   formation. This, in turn, could lead to better management of OSS
   projects.},

Abstract = {Range of motion (ROM) analysis allows defining the functional state of a
   joint and is crucial in healthcare field. This paper proposes the use of
   a low-cost elastomeric strain sensor, employed to determine, as an
   example of application, the ROM of the knee during a squat exercise. Its
   validation was performed by using smartphone cameras to record video and
   open-source portable software tools (OpenCap and Pose2Sim). The results
   show that the sensor is capable of providing the joint angle with
   appreciable accuracy, with a maximum error of about 4 degrees, falling
   within the mean error of the validation tools, and a larger error only
   for angles at the extremes of the analyzed range of motion. The sensor
   thus represents a reliable alternative to costly video-based systems.
   Moreover, its adaptability to non-laboratory environments makes it
   suitable for various applications, including event detection and human
   activity recognition.},

Abstract = {With the emergence of social coding platforms, collaboration has become
   a key and dynamic aspect to the success of software projects. In such
   platforms, developers have to collaborate and deal with issues of
   collaboration in open-source software development. Although
   collaboration is challenging, collaborative development produces better
   software systems than any developer could produce alone. Several
   approaches have investigated collaboration challenges, for instance, by
   proposing or evaluating models and tools to support collaborative work.
   Despite the undeniable importance of the existing efforts in this
   direction, there are few works on collaboration from perspectives of
   developers. In this work, we aim to investigate the perceptions of
   open-source software developers on collaborations, such as motivations,
   techniques, and tools to support global, productive, and collaborative
   development. Following an ad hoc literature review, an exploratory
   interview study with 12 open-source software developers from GitHub, our
   novel approach for this problem also relies on an extensive survey with
   121 developers to confirm or refute the interview results. We found
   different collaborative contributions, such as managing change requests.
   Besides, we observed that most collaborators prefer to collaborate with
   the core team instead of their peers. We also found that most
   collaboration happens in software development (60\%) and maintenance
   (47\%) tasks. Furthermore, despite personal preferences to work
   independently, developers still consider collaborating with others in
   specific task categories, for instance, software development. Finally,
   developers also expressed the importance of the social coding platforms,
   such as GitHub, to support maintainers, and contributors in making
   decisions and developing tasks of the projects. Therefore, these
   findings may help project leaders optimize the collaborations among
   developers and reduce entry barriers. Moreover, these findings may
   support the project collaborators in understanding the collaboration
   process and engaging others in the project.},

Abstract = {Currently, two models of innovation are prevalent in organization
   science. The ``private investment{''} model assumes returns to the
   innovator result from private goods and efficient regimes of
   intellectual property protection. The ``collective action{''} model
   assumes that under conditions of market failure, innovators collaborate
   in order to produce a public good. The phenomenon of open source
   software development shows that users program to solve their own as well
   as shared technical problems, and freely reveal their innovations
   without appropriating private returns from selling the software. In this
   paper, we propose that open source software development is an exemplar
   of a compound ``private-collective{''} model of innovation that contains
   elements of both the private investment and the collective action models
   and can offer society the ``best of both worlds{''} under many
   conditions. We describe a new set of research questions this model
   raises for scholars in organization science. We offer some details
   regarding the types of data available for open source projects in order
   to ease access for researchers who are unfamiliar with these, and also
   offer some advice on conducting empirical studies on open source

   reports and their triage process in open-source software systems},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {189},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {The issue tracking system (ITS) is a rich data source for data-driven
   decision-making. Different characteristics of bugs, such as severity,
   priority, and time to fix, provide a clear picture of an ITS.
   Nevertheless, such information may be misleading. For example, the exact
   time and the effort spent on a bug might be significantly different from
   the actual reporting time and the fixing time. Similarly, these values
   may be subjective, e.g., severity and priority values are assigned based
   on the intuition of a user or a developer rather than a structured and
   well-defined procedure. Hence, we explore the evolution of the bug
   dependency graph together with priority and severity levels to explore
   the actual triage process. Inspired by the idea of the ``Wayback Machine
   ``for the World Wide Web, we aim to reconstruct the historical decisions
   made in the ITS. Therefore, any bug prioritization or bug triage
   algorithms/scenarios can be applied in the same environment using our
   proposed ITS Wayback Machine. More importantly, we track the
   evolutionary metrics in the ITS when a custom triage/prioritization
   strategy is employed. We test the efficiency of the proposed algorithm
   using data extracted from three open-source projects. Our empirical
   study sheds light on the overlooked evolutionary metrics - e.g., overdue
   bugs and developers' loads - which are facilitated via our proposed
   past-event re-generator. (c) 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.},

   plant phenotyping},
Journal = {COMPUTERS AND ELECTRONICS IN AGRICULTURE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {200},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Hyperspectral imaging has become one of the most popular techniques for
   high-throughput plant phenotyping. Extracting and analyzing useful plant
   phenotypic traits from hyperspectral images represents a major
   bottleneck for plant science and breeding communities. This study aims
   to present a stand-alone easy-to-use software platform called HSI-PP to
   process and analyze hyperspectral images for high-throughput plant
   phenotyping. The HSI-PP software integrates pre-processing, feature
   extraction, and modeling functions. The application of HSI-PP is
   exemplified by investigating the response of different Arabidopsis
   thaliana genotypes to drought stress, and the impact of various imaging
   angles on predicting the canopy nitrogen content (CNC) of oilseed rape
   (Brassica napus L.). The results showed that HSI-PP can process 10 GB on
   an ordinary PC in time ranging from 30 to 73 min according to image size
   and the complexity of the pipeline. HSI-PP extracted multiple
   phenotyping traits (spectral, textural, and morphological) of
   Arabidopsis thaliana from a large image dataset (104 GB) within five
   hours. The fusion of these features achieved higher accuracy (94\%) than
   only using spectral information (85\%) as early as day 4 after drought
   stress treatment. For oilseed rape, about 384 GB image data was
   processed within eighteen hours, and it was found that the tilted
   imaging angle of 75 had the optimized PLSR fitting (0.83) to the ground
   truth. The results demonstrate that HSI-PP is a stand-alone, automated,
   and open-source hyperspectral image processing platform adapted to
   various applications in plant phenotyping without requiring professional
   programming skills to serve the plant research community.},

   teams with fluid boundaries and high possibility for turnover. We
   empirically investigate different types of conflict in Free and Open
   Source Software development teams, their antecedents and impact on
   developers' sustained participation. Following a survey of 222 FOSS
   developers, we find conflict to have an overall negative effect on
   developer retention. Furthermore, different types of conflict have
   varying impact on outcomes. In particular, only normative conflict
   levels negatively impact intention to remain in a FOSS project. Both
   normative and process conflict negatively affect perceptions of team
   performance, while the co-occurrence of task and process conflict
   exacerbate negative effects on outcomes. Though we find structural
   factors like task interdependence and geographical distribution increase
   overall conflict levels in FOSS teams, participatory decision-making and
   a transformational leadership style have an ameliorating effect.
   Implications for theory and practice are discussed.},

Abstract = {A few open source software (OSS) products exhibit an abrupt and
   significant increase in downloads. However, the majority of OSS products
   fail to gain much interest. Identifying early success is important for
   catalyzing growth in OSS markets. However, previous OSS research has not
   examined early product success dynamics and assumes adoption to be a
   continuous process. We propose OSS takeoff in adoptions as a measure of
   eventual product success. Takeoff is a nonlinear inflection point
   separating the early development from the growth phase in the product
   lifecycle. Using arguments from the signaling literature, we propose
   that community activities send signals about product quality and reduce
   information asymmetry faced by potential adopters of OSS products.
   Estimating a Cox proportional hazard model using a large sample of OSS
   products from SourceForge, we find that takeoff times are significantly
   associated with signals of quality deficiency and improvement. Further,
   we find that target audience and product innovativeness moderate this
   relationship.},

Abstract = {In structural deformation monitoring especially of high-rise buildings
   our main aim is hunting and pin-pointing the deviations of structural
   movement from reference position (original) and to detect deviancy
   during normal conditions to catastrophic damage e.g windstorm,
   thunderstorm, explosion or earthquake. For that to happen an accurate,
   robust and reliable method for structural monitoring is needed. GNSS
   with its advanced augmentation techniques can give a positioning
   accuracy in order of millimetres at its best. Such a higher order of
   accuracy can be used for precise structural deformation monitoring.
   Apart from that GNSS gives us loathsome advantages like all weather,
   around the clock and global coverage. GNSS doesn't need line of sight as
   it was needed in previous techniques between its stations. Due to these
   benefits we are using GNSS technology for structural deformation
   monitoring. GNSS also has some drawbacks like the positioning accuracy
   is dependent up on number of available satellites, geometry of
   satellites, multipath and receiver noise. Un-affordable price of precise
   GNSS receivers also makes it tougher. The data used in the thesis is the
   one used for structural deformation monitoring with the help of base
   stations and the rovers using the real time kinematic RTK positioning
   logged at ICON Tower Karachi, Pakistan a high-rise building. RTKLIB a
   free software is used for analysis of logged data by applying
   stand-alone, differential code and differential carrier phase (RTK)
   positioning techniques. For our post processing GPS data analysis we had
   used three rovers at three corners of building story under monitoring
   with common reference station. One by one on each of the sets we have
   RTK in RTKPOST GUI application of RTKLIB. For this analysis we have made
   three cases of comparison between individual RTK results of rover pairs
   and concluded deformation in a small chunk of time (3600 epochs) one
   hour data.},

Title = {BlenderPhotonics: an integrated open-source software environment for
   three-dimensional meshing and photon simulations in complex tissues},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF BIOMEDICAL OPTICS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {27},
Number = {8},
Month = {AUG 1},
Abstract = {Significance: Rapid advances in biophotonics techniques require
   quantitative, model-based computational approaches to obtain functional
   and structural information from increasingly complex and multiscaled
   anatomies. The lack of efficient tools to accurately model tissue
   structures and subsequently perform quantitative multiphysics modeling
   greatly impedes the clinical translation of these modalities.
   Aim: Although the mesh-based Monte Carlo (MMC) method expands our
   capabilities in simulating complex tissues using tetrahedral meshes, the
   generation of such domains often requires specialized meshing tools,
   such as Iso2Mesh. Creating a simplified and intuitive interface for
   tissue anatomical modeling and optical simulations is essential toward
   making these advanced modeling techniques broadly accessible to the user
   community.
   Approach: We responded to the above challenge by combining the powerful,
   open-source three-dimensional (3D) modeling software, Blender, with
   state-of-the-art 3D mesh generation and MC simulation tools, utilizing
   the interactive graphical user interface in Blender as the front-end to
   allow users to create complex tissue mesh models and subsequently launch
   MMC light simulations.
   Results: Here, we present a tutorial to our Python-based Blender
   add-on-BlenderPhotonics- to interface with Iso2Mesh and MMC, which
   allows users to create, configure and refine complex simulation domains
   and run hardware-accelerated 3D light simulations with only a few
   clicks. We provide a comprehensive introduction to this tool and walk
   readers through five examples, ranging from simple shapes to
   sophisticated realistic tissue models.
   Conclusions: BlenderPhotonics is user friendly and open source, and it
   leverages the vastly rich ecosystem of Blender. It wraps advanced
   modeling capabilities within an easy-to-use and interactive interface.

Abstract = {In a world where the notion of `sharing of knowledge' has gained much
   prominence in the recent past, the importance of information and
   communications technologies (ICTs) to promote sustainable agriculture,
   especially when combined with mobile and open source software
   technologies is discussed critically. On this rationale, this study was
   carried out to explore the applicability of the concept of converging
   `Free and Open Source Software (FOSS)' to promote sustainable knowledge
   sharing amongst the agricultural communities in Sri Lanka. A multi-stage
   community consultative process with a set of designated officials
   ({''}Sponsors{''}) and a series of semi-structured questionnaire survey
   with a cross section of smallholder agriculture farmers (n=246), were
   carried out in the Batticaloa, Kurunegala and Puttalam districts to
   gather the baseline data. This was followed by a number of field
   experiments ({''}Campaigns{''}) with the farmers (n=340) from same
   geographical areas. The two FOSS, namely: (1) ``FrontlineSMS{''} for
   `Text Messaging' and (2) ``FreedomFone{''} for `Interactive Voice
   Responses', were applied to evaluate the effectiveness of knowledge
   sharing within the farming communities. It was found that FOSS
   intervention increases the `Text messaging' and `Voice Call' usage in
   day-to-day agricultural communication by 26 and 8 percent, respectively.
   The demographic factors like age and educational level of the farmers
   have a positive influence on the knowledge sharing process. And also the
   `Mobile Telephony' was the most extensive mode of communication within
   the communities. The outcome of analysis, as a whole, implies that, with
   a fitting mechanism in place, this approach can be promoted as a ``drive
   for positive changes{''} in agriculture-based rural communities in
   developing countries like Sri Lanka, and those in South and East Asia
   with similar socioeconomic and cultural perspectives.},

Abstract = {The combined development of new technologies for neuronal recordings and
   the development of novel sensors for recording both cellular activity
   and neurotransmitter binding has ushered in a new era for the field of
   neuroscience. Among these new technologies is fiber photometry, a
   technique wherein an implanted fiber optic is used to record signals
   from genetically encoded fluorescent sensors in bulk tissue. Fiber
   photometry has been widely adapted due to its cost-effectiveness,
   ability to examine the activity of neurons with specific anatomical or
   genetic identities, and the ability to use these highly modular systems
   to record from one or more sensors or brain sites in both superficial
   and deep-brain structures. Despite these many benefits, one major hurdle
   for laboratories adopting this technique is the steep learning curve
   associated with the analysis of fiber photometry data. This has been
   further complicated by a lack of standardization in analysis pipelines.
   In the present communication, we present pMAT, a `photometry modular
   analysis tool' that allows users to accomplish common analysis routines
   through the use of a graphical user interface. This tool can be deployed
   in MATLAB and edited by more advanced users, but is also available as an
   independently deployable, open-source application.},

Abstract = {Many organisations are dependent upon long-term sustainable software
   systems and associated communities. In this paper we consider long-term
   sustainability of Open Source software communities in Open Source
   software projects involving a fork. There is currently a lack of studies
   in the literature that address how specific Open Source software
   communities are affected by a fork. We report from a study aiming to
   investigate the developer community around the LibreOffice project,
   which is a fork from the OpenOffice.org project. In so doing, our
   analysis also covers the OpenOffice.org project and the related Apache
   OpenOffice project. The results strongly suggest a long-term sustainable
   LibreOffice community and that there are no signs of stagnation in the
   LibreOffice project 33 months after the fork. Our analysis provides
   details on developer communities for the LibreOffice and Apache
   OpenOffice projects and specifically concerning how they have evolved
   from the OpenOffice.org community with respect to project activity,
   developer commitment, and retention of committers over time. Further, we
   present results from an analysis of first hand experiences from
   contributors in the LibreOffice community. Findings from our analysis
   show that Open Source software communities can outlive Open Source
   software projects and that LibreOffice is perceived by its community as
   supportive, diversified, and independent. The study contributes new
   insights concerning challenges related to long-term sustainability of
   Open Source software communities. (C) 2013 The Authors. Published by

Abstract = {The benign development of Open-source Software Ecosystem (or OSSE) helps

   projection pursuit and real-coded accelerated genetic algorithm. First,
   according to the snowball sampling data collection method and the
   grounded theory, the data is collected and processed. Second, by
   designing evaluation indicators and utility functions, the projection
   pursuit classification model of the natural ecosystem is evaluated and
   combined with a real-coded accelerated genetic algorithm, thereby
   designing the health measure model. The experimental results suggest the

Abstract = {GitHub is a developers' social networking service that hosts a great
   number of open source software (OSS) projects. Although some of the
   hosted projects are growing and have many developers, most projects are
   organized by a few developers and face difficulties in terms of
   sustainability. OSS projects depend mainly on volunteer developers, and
   attracting and retaining these volunteers are major concerns of the
   project stakeholders. To investigate the population structures of OSS
   development communities in detail and conduct software analytics to
   obtain actionable information, we apply a demographic approach.
   Demography is the scientific study of population and seeks to identify
   the levels and trends in the size and components of a population. This
   paper presents a case study, investigating the characteristics of the
   population structures of OSS projects on GitHub, and shows population
   projections generated with the well-known cohort component method. We
   found that there are four types of population structures in OSS
   development communities in terms of experiences and contributions. In
   addition, we projected the future population accurately using a cohort
   component population projection method. This method predicts a
   population of the next period using a survival rate calculated from past
   population. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that
   applied demography to the field of OSS research. Our approach addressing
   OSS-related problems based on demography will bring new insights, since
   studying population is novel in OSS research. Understanding current and
   future structures of OSS projects can help practitioners to monitor a
   project, gain awareness of what is happening, manage risks, and evaluate
   past decisions.},

   posted by its 654 active members in the years 2013 to 2015. Our results
   show that geographical proximity does not have a direct impact on
   collaboration, while organizational features defined by institutional
   and organizational proximity do significantly affect collaboration.
   Cognitive and social proximity also significantly, and positively,
   affects collaboration, but these relationships show an inverted u-shaped
   form. Our results confirm the need to develop specific theorizing about

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) does not work without contributions from the
   community. In particular, long-term contributors (LTCs) (e.g.,
   committer), defined as contributors who spend at least one year on OSS
   projects, play a crucial role in a project success because they would
   have permission to add (commit) code changes to a project's version
   control system, and to become a mentor for a beginner in OSS projects.
   However, contributors often leave a project before becoming a LTC
   because most contributors are volunteers. If contributors are motivated
   in their work in OSS projects, they might not leave the projects. In
   this study, we examine the phenomena involved in becoming a LTC in terms
   of motivation to continue in OSS projects. In particular, our target
   motivation is to understand what is involved in long-term contribution
   with other expert contributors. We study classifier to identify a LTC
   who will contribute patch submissions for more than one year based on
   collaboration in terms of the code review process. In detail, we analyze
   what review feedbacks encourage a contributor to continue with OSS
   project. Using a Qt project dataset, we build a prediction model to
   identify a LTC. We find that not only contributor's activities, but also
   a reviewer feedbacks, useful in identifying LTCs.},

Abstract = {Managing the software evolution for large open source software is a
   major challenge. Some factors that make software hard to maintain are
   geographically distributed development teams, frequent and rapid
   turnover of volunteers, absence of a formal means, and lack of
   documentation and explicit project planning. In this paper we propose
   remote and continuous analysis of open source software to monitor
   evolution using available resources such as CVS code repository,
   commitment log files and exchanged mail. Evolution monitoring relies on
   three principal services. The first service analyzes and monitors the
   increase in complexity and the decline in quality; the second supports
   distributed developers by sending them a feedback report after each
   contribution, the third allows developers to gain insight into the ``big
   picture{''} of software by providing a dashboard of project evolution.
   Besides the description of provided services, the paper presents a
   prototype environment for continuous analysis of the evolution of GRASS,
   an open source software.},

   Environment in Software Engineering Education},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION-RESEARCH},

Volume = {6},
Pages = {45-64},
Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has introduced a new dimension in software
   community. As the development and use of OSS becomes prominent, the
   question of its integration in education arises. In this paper, the
   following practices fundamental to projects and processes in software
   engineering are examined from an OSS perspective: project management;
   process, workflows, and collaborative activities; modeling and
   specification; deployment of standards; documentation; and quality
   assurance and evaluation. Based on a pragmatic framework, the prospects
   of integrating OSS in a traditional software engineering curriculum are
   outlined and concerns in realizing them are given. In doing so, the
   cases of the adoption of OSS process model, use of OSS as a Computer
   Aided Software Engineering (CASE) tool, OSS as a standalone sub-system,
   and open source code reuse are considered. We present some of the
   trade-offs that could help educators in decision making towards the use
   of the OSS environment in software engineering pedagogical contexts. The
   significance of openly accessible content in general and its relation to
   OSS in particular is briefly highlighted.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {135},
Pages = {17-36},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) ecosystems have reshaped the ways how
   software-intensive firms develop products and deliver value to
   customers. However, firms still need support for strategic product
   planning in terms of what to develop internally and what to share as
   OSS. Existing models accurately capture commoditization in software
   business, but lack operational support to decide what contribution
   strategy to employ in terms of what and when to contribute. This study
   proposes a Contribution Acceptance Process (CAP) model from which firms
   can adopt contribution strategies that align with product strategies and
   planning. In a design science influenced case study executed at Sony
   Mobile, the CAP model was iteratively developed in close collaboration
   with the firm's practitioners. The CAP model helps classify artifacts
   according to business impact and control complexity so firms may
   estimate and plan whether an artifact should be contributed or not.
   Further, an information meta-model is proposed that helps operationalize
   the CAP model at the organization. The CAP model provides an operational
   OI perspective on what firms involved in OSS ecosystems should share, by
   helping them motivate contributions through the creation of contribution
   strategies. The goal is to help maximize return on investment and
   sustain needed influence in OSS ecosystems. (C) 2017 The Authors.

   strategies. The motivation for developing tailored contribution
   strategies is to maximize return on investment and sustain the influence

   to help firms understand their current situation and create a starting
   point to develop an effective contribution management process. Principal
   ideas/results: Through a design science approach, a prototype framework
   is created based on literature and validated iteratively with expert
   opinions through interviews. Contribution: In this research preview, we
   present our initial results after our first design cycle and
   consultation with one experienced OSS manager at a large OSS oriented
   software-intensive firm. The initial validation highlights importance of
   stakeholder identification and analysis, as well as the general need for
   contribution management and alignment with internal product planning.
   This encourages future work to develop the framework further using
   expert and case validation.},

   Such an incorporation of COTS tools into an overall open-source approach
   completely annihilates the actual open-source advantages and goals. In
   this tool paper, we demonstrate how we eliminated a COTS tool from the
   otherwise open-source-based generation and evolution workflow of the
   domain-specific modeling language East-Adl, used in the automotive
   industry to describe a variety of interdisciplinary aspects of vehicle
   systems. By switching to a pure open-source solution, East-Adl becomes
   easier to inspect, evolve, and develop a community around. We compare
   both the mixed COTS/open-source and the open-source-only workflows,
   outline the advantages of the open-source-only solution, and show that
   we achieve equivalent tooling features compared to the original
   approach.},

   The Massive Open Online Course is a response to the challenges faced by
   organizations in order to collect related information of several
   matters. Spoken-Tutorial is prepared from the term that ``information is
   everywhere{''} as a social network, you are a clickware of this digital
   world. A world where internet is a medium to access mass information.
   So, MOOC is the one way of learning in this digital social network
   world. MOOC is a course-Open, Participatory, Distributed and Lifelong
   networked learning. It has facility of various courses, with start, end
   dates and participants. It's a way to connect and collaborate while
   developing digital skills an engage in a learning process. It is an
   EVENT around which people who care about a topic can gather and talk
   about it in a structured way. MOOC can promote the network learning for
   lifelong. People that have reputations for interesting skills and
   innovative thinking besides a topic, collaborate by opening an online
   course covering that topic. Anyone can join it. In a MOOC we can choose
   what we want to do, how we want to participate and we can decide if we
   have been successful, just like an existing atmosphere. Tutorials on
   almost all the Free open source are run by Spoken tutorials which is
   available on the internet and is provided by the team of spoken tutorial
   project. In this
   analysis we have mentioned all the steps of spoken tutorial courses and
   have took a survey from computer engineering students who are currently
   being taught Linux as their course laboratory and subject. This survey
   contained the questions related to the spoken tutorial for FOSS Linux

Abstract = {To increase open-source software supply chain security, protecting the
   development environment of contributors against attacks is crucial. For
   example, contributors must protect authentication credentials for
   software repositories, code-signing keys, and their systems from
   malware.
   Previous incidents illustrated that open-source contributors struggle
   with protecting their development environment. In contrast to companies,
   open-source software projects cannot easily enforce security guidelines
   for development environments. Instead, contributors' security setups are
   likely heterogeneous regarding chosen technologies and strategies.
   To the best of our knowledge, we perform the first in-depth qualitative
   investigation of the security of open-source software contributors'
   individual security setups, their motivation, decision-making, and
   sentiments, and the potential impact on open-source software supply
   chain security. Therefore, we conduct 20 semi-structured interviews with
   a diverse set of experienced contributors to critical open-source
   software projects.
   Overall, we find that contributors have a generally high affinity for
   security. However, security practices are rarely discussed in the
   community or enforced by projects. Furthermore, we see a strong
   influence of social mechanisms, such as trust, respect, or politeness,
   further impeding the sharing of security knowledge and best practices.
   We conclude our work with a discussion of the impact of our findings on
   open-source software and supply chain security, and make recommendations
   for the open-source software community.},

Abstract = {Many open source software systems are variability-intensive because they
   are frequently adapted to different customer needs or deployment
   environments. Variability in these systems not only occurs in
   functionality, but also in quality attributes (e. g., security,
   reliability, dependability). Furthermore, variability in functionality
   and variability in quality attributes affect each other. Recently, open
   source communities have adopted microblogging to document and share
   software engineering knowledge. Microblogging dissolves boundaries
   between developers and other stakeholders (e.g., end users). This
   facilitates the involvement of many different non-technical stakeholders
   in the software development process. In this paper, we investigate the
   feasibility and suitability of utilizing microblogs to identify and
   analyze dependability information about open source software systems. We
   use the example of the currently most popular microblogging
   infrastructure (Twitter) and a widely used open source content
   management system (Drupal). Our results indicate that even though open
   source communities frequently share information on Twitter, challenges
   exist for extracting and analyzing dependability information.
   Furthermore, a better understanding is needed to describe the relation
   between issues reported by user communities in microblogs, and issues
   and actions documented by developer communities in change logs and
   release information.},

Abstract = {Trust between developers influences the success of open source software
   (OSS) projects. Although existing research recognizes the importance of
   trust, there is a lack of an effective and scalable computational method
   to measure trust in an OSS community. Consequently, OSS project members
   must rely on subjective inferences based on fragile and incomplete
   information for trust-related decision making. We propose an automated
   approach to assist a developer in identifying the trustworthiness of
   another developer. Our two-fold approach, first, computes direct trust
   between developer pairs who have interacted previously by analyzing
   their interactions via natural language processing. Second, we infer
   indirect trust between developers who have not interacted previously by
   constructing a community-wide developer network and propagating trust in
   the network. A large-scale evaluation of our approach on a GitHub
   dataset consisting of 24,315 developers shows that contributions from
   trusted developers are more likely to be accepted to a project compared
   to contributions from developers who are distrusted or lacking trust
   from project members. Further, we develop a pull request classifier that
   exploits trust metrics to effectively predict the likelihood of a pull
   request being accepted to a project, demonstrating the practical utility
   of our approach.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is software whose source code that is open to
   the public through the Internet. Currently, OSS is widely used in many
   aspects of IT society. Because OSS development is community based,
   unlike commercial software, the lack of good documentation or the
   maintenance of manuals is one of the main problems of using OSS. Due to
   its rapid development, OSS manuals become easily obsolete. Moreover, the
   installation or the usage varies depending on the operating system. To
   solve the documentation problems, Murakami et al. proposed a method of
   automatically generating a web manual for installing an OSS by editing
   the log information recorded during the installation process.
   Unfortunately, the web manual generated by this system was not suitable
   for wide use in learning management systems. Therefore, this paper
   extends the system by Murakami et al. to one with the ability to deliver
   an automatically generated Web manual on an e-learning management
   system, modify the content of the manual, and skip unnecessary
   information in the learning process. (C) 2013 The Authors. Published by

Abstract = {The focus of existing open source software (OSS) research has been on
   how and why individuals and firms add to the commons of public OSS
   code-that is, on the ``giving{''} side of this open innovation process.
   In contrast, research on the corresponding ``receiving{''} side of the
   innovation process is scarce. We address this gap, studying how existing
   OSS code is reused and serves as an input to further OSS development.
   Our findings are based on a survey with 686 responses from OSS
   developers. As the most interesting results, our multivariate analyses
   of developers' code reuse behavior point out that developers with larger
   personal networks within the OSS community and those who have experience
   in a greater number of OSS projects reuse more, presumably because both
   network size and a broad project experience facilitate local search for
   reusable artifacts. Moreover, we find that a development paradigm that
   calls for releasing an initial functioning version of the software

   How modes of communication shape project behaviors in the free

Abstract = {Research summary: Building on the problem-solving perspective, we study
   behaviors related to projects and the communication-based antecedents of
   such behaviors in the free open-source software (FOSS) community. We
   examine two kinds of problem/project-behaviors: Individuals can set up
   projects around the formulation of new problems or join existing
   projects and define and/or work on subproblems within an existing
   problem. The choice between these two behaviors is influenced by the
   mode of communication. A communication mode with little a priori
   structure is the best mode for communicating about new problems (i.e.,
   formulating a problem); empirically, it is associated with project
   launching behaviors. In contrast, more structured communication fits
   subproblems better and is related to project joining behaviors. Our
   hypotheses derive support from data from the FOSS community.Managerial
   summary: We study how the way in which individuals communicate influence
   the project-behaviors they engage in. We find that relatively
   unstructured communication is associated with the setting up new
   projects, while communication that is structured around an artifact is
   associated with joining projects. Our findings hold implications for
   understanding how management may influence project behaviors and
   problem-solving: Firms that need to concentrate on more incremental
   problem-solving efforts (e.g., because a sufficient number of attractive
   problems have already been defined) should create environments in which
   interaction is undertaken mainly via artifacts. On the other hand, if
   firms seek to generate new problems (e.g., new strategic opportunities),
   they should create environments in which open-ended, verbal conversation
   is relatively more important than artifact-based communication.

   authorities in establishing strategies for integrating effective and
   sustainable Information Technology solutions in the public sector
   towards economic growth and social welfare. Moreover, public services,

   should be considered in order to reach the best possible decisions.
   Within this context, this manuscript provides policy recommendations on
   issues and challenges pertaining to the use of free and open source

Abstract = {Neuroanatomical tracer studies in the nonhuman primate macaque monkey
   are a valuable resource for cognitive neuroscience research. These data
   ground theories of cognitive function in anatomy, and with the emergence
   of graph theoretical analyses in neuroscience, there is high demand for
   these data to be consolidated into large-scale connection matrices
   ({''}macroconnectomes{''}). Because manual review of the anatomical
   literature is time consuming and error prone, computational solutions
   are needed to accomplish this task. Here we describe the ``CoCoTools{''}
   open-source Python library, which automates collection and integration
   of macaque connectivity data for visualization and graph theory
   analysis. CoCoTools both interfaces with the CoCoMac database, which
   houses a vast amount of annotated tracer results from 100 years
   (1905-2005) of neuroanatomical research, and implements coordinate-free
   registration algorithms, which allow studies that use different
   parcellations of the brain to be translated into a single graph. We show
   that using CoCoTools to translate all of the data stored in CoCoMac
   produces graphs with properties consistent with what is known about
   global brain organization. Moreover, in addition to describing
   CoCoTools' processing pipeline, we provide worked examples, tutorials,
   links to on-line documentation, and detailed appendices to aid
   scientists interested in using CoCoTools to gather and analyze CoCoMac
   data.},

Abstract = {Bugs could be introduced at any phase of software development process.
   Bugs are recorded in repositories, which occur due to frequent changes
   in source code of software to meet the requirements of organizations or

   changed continuously due to which source code becomes complicated and
   hence bugs appear frequently. Bug repair process includes addition of
   new feature, enhancement of existing feature, some faults or other
   maintenance task. Entropy measures the uncertainty, thus helpful in
   studying code change process. In this paper, bugs reported in various
   subcomponents of Bugzilla open-source software are considered; changes
   are quantified in terms of entropies using Renyi, Havrda-Charvat, and
   Arimoto entropy measures of each component for all changes in
   components. A linear regression model using SPSS is applied to detect
   the expected bugs in the Bugzilla subcomponents. Performance has been

Abstract = {The European `Floods Directive' 2007/60/EC focuses on the development of

   this context, this research project developed a free and open-source GIS
   software, called FloodRisk, to operatively support stakeholders in their
   compliance with risk map delineation and the management of current and
   future flood risk based on their needs for multi-purpose applications.
   In this paper, a high-resolution impact assessment framework based on 2D
   inundation modelling with different return periods was used, as input,
   within the FloodRisk model to reconstruct the socio-economic damages
   based on a case study showing how structural and non-structural measures
   can significantly decrease the cost of floods for households. The
   sensitivity of the FloodRisk model was also examined and it was found to
   be highly dependent on the selection of damage functions and the

Abstract = {Peer review is seen as an important quality-assurance mechanism in both
   industrial development and the open-source software (OSS) community. The
   techniques for performing inspections have been well studied in
   industry; in OSS development, software peer reviews are not as well
   understood.
   To develop an empirical understanding of OSS peer review, we examine the
   review policies of 25 OSS projects and study the archival records of six
   large, mature, successful OSS projects. We extract a series of measures
   based on those used in traditional inspection experiments. We measure
   the frequency of review, the size of the contribution under review, the
   level of participation during review, the experience and expertise of
   the individuals involved in the review, the review interval, and the
   number of issues discussed during review. We create statistical models
   of the review efficiency, review interval, and effectiveness, the issues
   discussed during review, to determine which measures have the largest
   impact on review efficacy.
   We find that OSS peer reviews are conducted asynchronously by empowered
   experts who focus on changes that are in their area of expertise.
   Reviewers provide timely, regular feedback on small changes. The
   descriptive statistics clearly show that OSS review is drastically
   different from traditional inspection.},

Abstract = {As a new phenomenon in the software industry, Open Source Software (OSS)

   This study is prompted by the significant but detail-lacking examination
   of differential effects of various types of extrinsic motivations on
   participants' task effort in OSS projects and their interaction effects
   with participants' psychological states. Drawing upon self-determination
   theory, we establish four types of extrinsic motivations in OSS
   communities (i.e., external, introjected, identified, and integrated
   motivation) and investigate how these types affect task effort
   differently. Also, integrating self-determination theory with affective
   event theory, we study how satisfaction of needs for competence,
   autonomy, and relatedness moderates the relationships between extrinsic
   motivations and task effort. The research model is largely supported by
   data from 250 participants in various OSS projects. Theoretical
   contribution and practical implications are discussed.},

Abstract = {The Bermuda Principles (1996) have been celebrated as a landmark for

   in genomics was a result of specific technological practices. Biologists
   developed and adopted technologies of the nascent World Wide Web and
   Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) communities for sharing biological
   information. These technologies supported decentralized, collaborative,
   and nonproprietary modes of production in biology. Such technologies
   were appealing not merely because they were expedient for genomic work
   but because they also offered a way of promoting a particular form of
   genomic practice. As the genome sequencing centers scaled up their
   sharing efforts, a small group of computer-savvy biologists used these
   tools to promote the interests of the public genome sequencing effort.
   The agreements at Bermuda should be understood as part of this attempt
   to foster a particular form of genomic work.},

   This software (like eXe Learning, Hot Potatoes, Xerte and so on) can be
   used for creating an LMS (Learning Management Systems), and can be used
   to create interactive courses that the student may approach based on
   complexity. In the case of eXe Learning and Xerte can be generated
   courses which have a similar structure to that of the classic course,
   but that can be approached as a web page. Information is structured so
   that they comply with the requirements of a weaving technology. The
   teacher can generate in the same course, a number of subsections which
   the student can learn in the same order or according to his need. Can be
   attached multimedia materials, its own teacher, and reference may be
   made to the existing materials on the Internet. The course can be saved
   in different formats, so it can be loaded on an e-learning plafform. The
   two open source software is built on different platforms (Linux,
   Windows) for a fairly large number of variations. The development of eXe
   Learning has been stopped, Xerte reached at version 3.0 (beta). Both
   programs are developed by the universities (from New Zealand and
   England). If eXe is based on his experience during use, Xerte requires
   some knowledge of programming into Action Script. Both software has
   bibliographic resources quite confined, but can also be used easily as
   soon as it gains experience. The software's have the possibility to
   generate tests, but in the case of eXe Learning the answers that have
   the disadvantage that the order is the same and it is necessary to use
   special software to test for generating (like Hot Potatoes). The Xerte
   can generate the quizzes with random answers. The course can be saved in
   different formats so it can be uploaded on a platform of e-learning or
   may be used independently, without access to the Internet (with saving
   multimedia materials to another medium), etc.},

   processing and phenomena's. Traditional approach to teaching these
   processes has the disadvantage of a presentation largely of information
   not directly corresponding with the real phenomenon (understanding
   sectional warping phases). For this purpose requires the use of
   multimedia presentations for the connection between information and the
   phenomenon described These presentations can be made classical, in the
   course room, but for better depth can use different e-learning systems.
   The purpose of this paper is to present several open source solutions
   that can be applied to study the processes of weaving (eXe Learning, Hot
   Potatoes, and so on)., This software can be used to create interactive
   courses that the student may approach based on complexity. In the case
   of eXe Learning can be generated courses which have a similar structure
   to that of the classic course, but that can be approached as a web page.
   Information is structured so that they comply with the requirements of a
   weaving technology. The teacher can generate in the same course, a
   number of subsections which the student can learn in the same order or
   according to his need Can be attached multimedia materials, its own
   teacher, and reference may be made to the existing materials on the
   Internet. The software has the possibility to generate tests with the
   answers that have the disadvantage that the order is the same, but you
   can use special software to test for generating (like Hot Potatoes). The
   course can be saved in different formats so it can be uploaded on a
   platform of e-learning or may be used independently, without access to
   the Internet (with saving multimedia materials to another medium), etc.},

   specification that can be easily integrated into any robot system. It
   can perform various functions, from audio signal processing to dialog
   management, in a uniform and reconfigurable manner. It not only
   implements each required function of components but also defines a
   meta-level specification to enable the developer to verify whether the
   structural design of components is correct. In this paper, we introduce
   the implementation of the OpenHRI, present the architectural design of
   the system, and provide examples of applications.},

Abstract = {Since its origins, the diffusion of the OSS phenomenon and the
   information about it has been entrusted to the Internet and its virtual
   communities of developers. This public mass of data has attracted the
   interest of researchers and practitioners aiming at formalizing it into
   a body of knowledge. To this aim, in 2005, a new series of conferences
   on OSS started to collect and convey OSS knowledge to the research and
   industrial community. Our work mines articles of the OSS conference
   series to understand the process of knowledge grounding and the
   community surrounding it. As such, we propose a semi-automated approach
   for a systematic mapping study on these articles. We automatically build
   a map of cross-citations among all the papers of the conferences and
   then we manually inspect the resulting clusters to identify knowledge
   building blocks and their mutual relationships. We found that
   industry-related, quality assurance, and empirical studies often
   originate or maintain new streams of research.},

   traces},
Journal = {PLOS COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {16},
Number = {12},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Biological measurements frequently involve measuring parameters as a
   function of time, space, or frequency. Later, during the analysis phase
   of the study, the researcher splits the recorded data trace into smaller
   sections, analyzes each section separately by finding a mean or fitting
   against a specified function, and uses the analysis results in the
   study. Here, we present the software that allows to analyze these data
   traces in a manner that ensures repeatability of the analysis and
   simplifies the application of FAIR (findability, accessibility,
   interoperability, and reusability) principles in such studies. At the
   same time, it simplifies the routine data analysis pipeline and gives
   access to a fast overview of the analysis results. For that, the
   software supports reading the raw data, processing the data as specified
   in the protocol, and storing all intermediate results in the laboratory
   database. The software can be extended by study- or hardware-specific
   modules to provide the required data import and analysis facilities. To
   simplify the development of the data entry web interfaces, that can be
   used to enter data describing the experiments, we released a web
   framework with an example implementation of such a site. The software is
   covered by open-source license and is available through several online
   channels.
   Author summary
   In biological and other types of experiments, we frequently record
   changes of some parameters in time or space. It is common to analyze the
   data by splitting the recording into smaller sections and relating it to
   some changes induced by the researchers. The steps involved in the
   analysis are: splitting of the data, fitting them to some function,
   relating the fit result to the change in the environment, and
   normalization. These steps are frequently done through several software
   packages, spreedsheets, and manual copy and paste between the programs.
   The software presented in this work allows to make all these analysis
   steps in one database in a manner that is easy, can be reproduced by
   others, and clearly tracks the history of all the analysis steps. In
   addition, it allows to link the experimental data with the description
   of the experiment, making it simple to perform tasks such as
   normalization of the recorded values, relating experimental recordings
   to the sample or animal, as well as extracting data from the laboratory
   database for publishing. The software is written to be easily extendable
   by user-defined modules to fit the analysis pipelines and is expected to
   improve the data analysis practices in research.},

Abstract = {The diminished reality (DR) techniques that visualize blind areas in
   road environments are expected to prevent accidents and to reduce
   passengers' stress or anxiety. However, the feasibility of such
   techniques is still unclear because most researches on DR for road
   environments are based on the assumption of the availability of specific
   sensor arrangements and infrastructures, which are not guaranteed to
   spread in the future. In this research, we propose a novel design to
   implement a DR system for rendering ghosted hidden background areas
   using various sensor data for self-driving. Our major assumption is that
   a number of automotive vehicles run around the world in the near future
   and their sensors and program modules are available for other purposes.
   In our experiments, we confirmed that hidden area can be visualized by
   using such data and modules.},

Month = {JUL 16},
Abstract = {The sequential analysis of client and clinician speech in psychotherapy
   sessions can help to identify and characterize potential mechanisms of
   treatment and behavior change. Previous studies required coding systems
   that were time-consuming, expensive, and error-prone. Existing software
   can be expensive and inflexible, and furthermore, no single package
   allows for pre-parsing, sequential coding, and assignment of global
   ratings. We developed a free, open-source, and adaptable program to meet
   these needs: The CASAA Application for Coding Treatment Interactions
   (CACTI). Without transcripts, CACTI facilitates the real-time sequential
   coding of behavioral interactions using WAV-format audio files. Most
   elements of the interface are user-modifiable through a simple XML file,
   and can be further adapted using Java through the terms of the GNU
   Public License. Coding with this software yields interrater
   reliabilities comparable to previous methods, but at greatly reduced
   time and expense. CACTI is a flexible research tool that can simplify
   psychotherapy process research, and has the potential to contribute to
   the improvement of treatment content and delivery.},

   Descriptors and Fingerprints},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {32},
Number = {7},
Pages = {1466-1474},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Introduction: PaDEL-Descriptor is a software for calculating molecular
   descriptors and fingerprints. The software currently calculates 797
   descriptors (663 1D, 2D descriptors, and 134 3D descriptors) and 10
   types of fingerprints. These descriptors and fingerprints are calculated
   mainly using The Chemistry Development Kit. Some additional descriptors
   and fingerprints were added, which include atom type electrotopological
   state descriptors, McGowan volume, molecular linear free energy relation
   descriptors, ring counts, count of chemical substructures identified by
   Laggner, and binary fingerprints and count of chemical substructures
   identified by Klekota and Roth.
   Methods: PaDEL-Descriptor was developed using the Java language and
   consists of a library component and an interface component. The library
   component allows it to be easily integrated into quantitative structure
   activity relationship software to provide the descriptor calculation
   feature while the interface component allows it to be used as a
   standalone software. The software uses a Master/Worker pattern to take
   advantage of the multiple CPU cores that are present in most modern
   computers to speed up calculations of molecular descriptors.
   Results: The software has several advantages over existing standalone
   molecular descriptor calculation software. It is free and open source,
   has both graphical user interface and command line interfaces, can work
   on all major platforms (Windows, Linux, MacOS), supports more than 90
   different molecular file formats, and is multithreaded.
   Conclusion: PaDEL-Descriptor is a useful addition to the currently
   available molecular descriptor calculation software. The software can be
   downloaded at http://padel.nus.edu.sg/software/padeldescriptor. (C) 2010

Abstract = {In the software industry, commercial open-source software vendors have
   recognized that providing services to help businesses derive greater

   profitable business model. Moreover, society may greatly benefit when

   products become widely available, readily customizable, and open to
   community contributions. In this study, we present an economic model to
   study how software licensing attributes affect a software originator's
   decisions, aiming to provide policy makers with insights into how
   welfare-improving, open-source outcomes can be incentivized. We show
   that when a competing contributor is apt at reaping the benefits of
   software development investment, a less restrictive open source license
   (e.g., Berkeley Software Distribution, or BSD style) can improve
   welfare. On the other hand, when the originator is better at leveraging
   investment and service costs are high, a more restrictive license (e.g.,
   General Public License, or GPL style) can be best for social welfare
   even when a contributor can cost-efficiently develop the software.},

Abstract = {Cell migration is frequently accompanied by changes in cell morphology
   (morphodynamics) on a range of spatial and temporal scales. Despite
   recent advances in imaging techniques, the application of unbiased
   computational image analysis methods for morphodynamic quantification is
   rare. For example, manual analysis using kymographs is still
   commonplace, often caused by lack of access to user-friendly, automated
   tools. We now describe software designed for the automated
   quantification of cell migration and morphodynamics. Implemented as a
   plug-in for the open-source platform, ImageJ, ADAPT is capable of rapid,
   automated analysis of migration and membrane protrusions, together with
   associated fluorescently labeled proteins, across multiple cells. We
   demonstrate the ability of the software by quantifying variations in
   cell population migration rates on different extracellular matrices. We
   also show that ADAPT can detect and morphologically profile filopodia.
   Finally, we have used ADAPT to compile an unbiased description of a
   ``typical{''} bleb formed at the plasma membrane and quantify the effect
   of Arp2/3 complex inhibition on bleb retraction.},

Abstract = {A quality degradation effect of proprietary code has been observed as a
   consequence of maintenance. This quality degradation effect, called
   entropy, is a cause for higher maintenance costs. In the Open Source
   context, the quality of code is a fundamental tenet of open software
   developers. As a consequence, the quality degradation principle measured
   by entropy cannot be assumed to be valid.
   The goal of the paper is to analyze the entropy of Open Source
   applications by measuring the evolution of maintenance costs over time.
   Analyses are based on cost data collected from a sample of 1251 Open
   Source application versions, compared with the costs estimated with a
   traditional model for proprietary software. Findings indicate that Open
   Source applications are less subject to entropy, have lower maintenance
   costs and also a lower need for maintenance interventions aimed at
   restoring quality. Finally, results show that a lower entropy is favored
   by greater functional simplicity.},

Abstract = {Voluntary contributions are crucial to the success of open source
   software (OSS) projects. Firms sponsoring OSS projects may face
   substantial challenges in soliciting such contributions, since volunteer
   participants are neither regulated by an employment contract nor offered
   financial incentives. Although prior work has shown the positive impact
   of motivation on the effort expended by volunteer participants, there is
   limited understanding of how specific firm attributes shape volunteers'
   intrinsic motivation. We offer a theoretical model of how the perceived
   community-based credibility and openness of the sponsoring firm have a
   positive impact on the intrinsic motivation of volunteer participants.
   The model is explored using survey data on volunteer participants from
   two sponsored OSS projects. Results show that a sponsoring firm's
   community-based credibility (OSS developers' perception of its expertise
   and trustworthiness) and openness (its mutual knowledge exchange with
   the community) strengthen the volunteer participants' social
   identification with the firm-sponsored community, which in turn
   reinforces their intrinsic motivation to participate. Moreover, the
   perceived community-based credibility of a sponsoring firm directly
   enhances volunteer participants' intrinsic motivation, whereas perceived
   openness fails to affect motivation without the mediating mechanism of
   social identification. Implications for firms seeking voluntary
   contributions for their sponsored OSS projects are discussed.},

   Source Software projects},
Journal = {LIBRARY HI TECH},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {32},
Number = {2, SI},
Pages = {260-275},
Abstract = {Purpose - Little is known as to the breadth and diversity of Open Source
   Software (OSS) applications for libraries and the development
   characteristics that influence the sustainability and success of
   projects creating them. The purpose of this paper is to address this gap
   by analyzing a large sample of library OSS projects.
   Design/methodology/approach - A total of 594 library OSS projects (469
   from SourceForge and 125 from Foss4lib) are classified by type and
   further differentiated and assessed across a number of criteria
   including, but not limited to, sponsorship status, license type, and
   development status.
   Findings - While various types of library OSS applications were found to
   be under development and in use, the results show that there has been a
   steady decrease in the number of projects initiated since 2009. Although
   sponsorship was significantly positively associated with several
   indicators of OSS project success, the proportion of sponsored projects
   was relatively small compared to the proportions reported in some other
   contexts. In total, 71 percent of the projects have a restrictive
   license scheme, suggesting that the OSS ideology is valued among library
   OSS projects. The results also indicate that library OSS projects
   exhibit several characteristics that differ from the traditional
   developer-oriented OSS projects in terms of their technical environment.
   Originality/value - This study, as the first of its kind, offers a
   broader, more quantitative picture of the state of library OSS
   applications as well as the development characteristics of projects
   developing them. Several implications for research and practice, and
   directions for future research are provided.},

Abstract = {Current estimates suggest widespread adoption of open source software
   (OSS) in organizations worldwide. However, the problematic nature of OSS
   adoption is readily evidenced in the fairly frequent reports of
   problems, unforeseen hold-ups, and outright abandonment of OSS
   implementation over time. Beaumont Hospital, an Irish public sector
   organization, have embarked on the adoption of a range of OSS
   applications over several years, some of which have been successfully
   deployed and remain in live use within the organisation, whereas others,
   despite achieving high levels of assimilation over a number of years,
   have not been ultimately retained in live use in the organization. Using
   a longitudinal case study, we discuss in depth the deployment process
   for two OSS applications - the desktop application suite whose
   deployment was unsuccessful ultimately, and the email application which
   was successfully deployed. To our knowledge, this is the first such
   in-depth study into successful and unsuccessful OSS implementation.
   Given that our study was a longitudinal one in a single organization, we
   can control a number of potentially important influencing elements which
   would not be possible if multiple organizations were involved. In
   particular, the complex interaction of issues to do with voluntariness
   of adoption, image, trialability and absorptive capacity were critical
   influences in the process.},

Abstract = {Neurons perform computations by integrating inputs from thousands of
   synapses-mostly in the dendritic tree-to drive action potential firing
   in the axon. One fruitful approach to studying this process is to record
   from neurons using patch-clamp electrodes, fill the recorded neurons
   with a substance that allows subsequent staining, reconstruct the
   three-dimensional architectures of the dendrites, and use the resulting
   functional and structural data to develop computer models of dendritic
   integration. Accurately producing quantitative reconstructions of
   dendrites is typically a tedious process taking many hours of manual
   inspection and measurement. Here we present ShuTu, a new software
   package that facilitates accurate and efficient reconstruction of
   dendrites imaged using bright-field microscopy. The program operates in
   two steps: (1) automated identification of dendritic processes, and (2)
   manual correction of errors in the automated reconstruction. This
   approach allows neurons with complex dendritic morphologies to be
   reconstructed rapidly and efficiently, thus facilitating the use of
   computer models to study dendritic structure-function relationships and
   the computations performed by single neurons.},

Journal = {FRONTIERS IN NEUROINFORMATICS},

Abstract = {Segmenting axon and myelin from microscopic images is relevant for
   studying the peripheral and central nervous system and for validating
   new MRI techniques that aim at quantifying tissue microstructure. While
   several software packages have been proposed, their interface is
   sometimes limited and/or they are designed to work with a specific
   modality (e.g., scanning electron microscopy (SEM) only). Here we
   introduce AxonSeg, which allows to perform automatic axon and myelin
   segmentation on histology images, and to extract relevant morphometric
   information, such as axon diameter distribution, axon density and the
   myelin g-ratio. AxonSeg includes a simple and intuitive MATLABbased
   graphical user interface (GUI) and can easily be adapted to a variety of
   imaging modalities. The main steps of AxonSeg consist of: (i) image
   pre-processing; (ii) pre-segmentation of axons over a cropped image and
   discriminant analysis (DA) to select the best parameters based on axon
   shape and intensity information; (iii) automatic axon and myelin
   segmentation over the full image; and (iv) atlas-based statistics to
   extract morphometric information. Segmentation results from standard
   optical microscopy (OM), SEM and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering
   (CARS) microscopy are presented, along with validation against manual
   segmentations. Being fully-automatic after a quick manual intervention
   on a cropped image, we believe AxonSeg will be useful to researchers
   interested in large throughput histology.},

Abstract = {Overtime open source software (OSS) is receiving attention from
   industry. The growth rate is unprecedented. The software industry is
   inclining towards adopting OSS despite concerns about the quality.
   Defect management has been a key issue in OSS. Software whether it is
   close or open source uses energy. Green computing argued that
   environmental conditions are getting worst and use of power consumptions
   should be minimized to protect the earth. A lot of work has been
   reported in the area of green hardware but very little work has been
   reported in making software green. The main objective this work is to
   increase understanding of green software development. In this study, we
   empirically investigate that whether there is relationship between
   defect management in OSS and power consumption of OSS application. We
   used a dataset consist of 82 OSS projects to study the research model of
   this investigation. The results of this investigation show that software
   defect management in OSS play a significant role in managing power
   consumption of OSS applications.},

Abstract = {Open-source software (OSS) is a type of computer software wherein the
   source code is distributed under a special type of licence in which the
   copyright holder grants users the rights to inspect, alter, and
   redistribute the software. OSS projects are collaborative endeavours
   which have multiple contributors who are constantly joining, leaving, or
   changing their role in the project. This ever-changing and
   ever-transient nature of OSS project contributors contributes to a
   contributor turnover-induced knowledge loss in OSS projects. In this
   case, ``knowledge loss{''} refers to the phenomenon of the loss of
   project-specific knowledge, experience, and expertise in an OSS project,
   caused by contributors regularly joining and leaving the OSS project.
   This paper describes the design and development of a robust research
   methodology and contributes towards the formation of proactive knowledge
   retention practices in OSS projects to transform contributor's use of

Abstract = {Continuous integration (CI) emphasizes quick feedback to developers.
   This is at odds with current practice of performance testing, which
   predominantely focuses on long-running tests against entire systems in
   production-like environments. Alternatively, software microbenchmarking
   attempts to establish a performance baseline for small code fragments in
   short time. This paper investigates the quality of microbenchmark suites
   with a focus on suitability to deliver quick performance feedback and CI
   integration. We study ten open-source libraries written in Java and Go
   with benchmark suite sizes ranging from 16 to 983 tests, and runtimes
   between 11 minutes and 8.75 hours. We show that our study subjects
   include benchmarks with result variability of 50\% or higher, indicating
   that not all benchmarks are useful for reliable discovery of slow-downs.
   We further artificially inject actual slowdowns into public API methods
   of the study subjects and test whether test suites are able to discover
   them. We introduce a performance-test quality metric called the API
   benchmarking score (ABS). ABS represents a benchmark suite's ability to
   find slowdowns among a set of defined core API methods. Resulting
   benchmarking scores (i.e., fraction of discovered slowdowns) vary
   between 10\% and 100\% for the study subjects. This paper's methodology
   and results can be used to (1) assess the quality of existing
   microbenchmark suites, (2) select a set of tests to be run as part of
   CI, and (3) suggest or generate benchmarks for currently untested parts
   of an API.},

Abstract = {User forums of Open Source Software (OSS) enable end-users to
   collaboratively discuss problems concerning the OSS applications.
   Despite decades of research on OSS, we know very little about how
   end-users engage with OSS communities on these forums, in particular,
   the challenges that hinder their continuous and meaningful participation
   in the OSS community. Many previous works are developer-centric and
   overlook the importance of end-user forums. As a result, end-users'
   expectations are seldom reflected in OSS development. To better
   understand user behaviors in OSS user forums, we carried out an
   empirical study analyzing about 1.3 million posts from user forums of
   four popular OSS applications: Zotero, Audacity, VLC, and RStudio.
   Through analyzing the contribution patterns of three common user types
   (end-users, developers, and organizers), we observed that end-users not
   only initiated most of the threads (above 96\% of threads in three
   projects, 86\% in the other), but also acted as the significant
   contributors for responding to other users' posts, even though they
   tended to lack confidence in their activities as indicated by
   psycho-linguistic analyses. Moreover, we found end-users more open,
   reflecting a more positive emotion in communication than organizers and
   developers in the forums. Our work contributes new knowledge about
   end-users' activities and behaviors in OSS user forums that the vital
   OSS stakeholders can leverage to improve end-user engagement in the OSS
   development process.},

Abstract = {Studies on the OSS communities have shown that financial supports are
   critical to OSS developers and projects to maintain their progress and
   sustainability. However, there were few developers being paid directly
   for maintaining OSS projects in the past. The GitHub Sponsors program
   that brings financial supports to the general OSS developers in
   GitHub-the world's largest OSS platform may make a difference on this
   situation in the future. In this paper, we present a data set on GitHub
   Sponsors and conduct a data-driven study to analyze the participants of
   the program and the impact of sponsorships to developers' activities and
   their projects' outcomes and qualities. The results of our survey
   suggest that most developers state they will contribute more with
   sponsorships and provide some privilege for their sponsors. And through
   quantitative study, we find that developers make more contributions on
   GitHub after they got/offered sponsorships. Moreover, gaining
   sponsorship also has a weakly positive impact on developers'
   collaborators that did not get sponsorship. And not only developers, but
   their own or contributed projects also can be motivate by sponsorships.
   Our findings are useful to the community by understanding the impact of
   sponsorships on users' activities and projects' progress and
   sustainability, and helping the managers to improve the current
   financial support mechanism.},

Abstract = {Demand response (DR) is becoming an increasingly important part of power
   grid planning and operation. The advent of the Smart Grid, which
   mandates its use, further motivates selection and development of
   suitable software protocols to enable DR functionality. The OpenADR
   protocol has been developed and is being standardized to serve this
   goal. We believe that the development of a distributable, open source
   implementation of OpenADR will benefit this effort and motivate critical
   evaluation of its capabilities, by the wider community, for providing
   wide-scale DR services.},

Title = {A universal cross language software similarity detector for open source
   software categorization},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {162},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {While there are novel approaches for detecting and categorizing similar
   software applications, previous research focused on detecting similarity
   in applications written in the same programming language and not on
   detecting similarity in applications written in different programming
   languages. Cross-language software similarity detection is inherently
   more challenging due to variations in language, application structures,
   support libraries used, and naming conventions. In this paper we propose
   a novel model, CroLSim, to detect similar software applications across
   different programming languages. We define a semantic relationship among
   cross-language libraries and API methods (both local and third party)
   using functional descriptions and a word-vector learning model. Our
   experiments show that CroLSim can successfully detect cross-language
   similar software applications, which outperforms all existing approaches
   (mean average precision rate of 0.65, confidence rate of 3.6, and 75\%
   highly rated successful queries). Furthermore, we applied CroLSim to a
   source code repository to see whether our model can recommend
   cross-language source code fragments if queried directly with source
   code. From our experiments we found that CroLSim can recommend
   cross-language functional similar source code when source code is
   directly used as a query (average precision=0.28, recall=0.85, and
   F-Measure=0.40). (C) 2019 Published by Elsevier Inc.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF KING SAUD UNIVERSITY SCIENCE},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {35},

Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Purpose: This study was developed to create computer software for
   performing the gamma index comparison between measurement and Monte
   Carlo (MC) simulation for the percentage depth dose (PDD) and beam
   offcenter ratio profile (OCR). Materials and methods: The gamma software
   was built in the matrix laboratory (MATLAB) software environment. The
   developed software was compared with ScanDosematch and Bistromath
   software's gamma evaluation to assess its accuracy. A set of reference
   and evaluated dose distribution, which were obtained from measurement
   and MC simulation, was input to the software to calculate the 1D gamma
   index using different criteria (i.e. 3\%/3 mm, 2\%/3 mm, and 2\%/2 mm).
   Results: We compared the two results of gamma index at 3\%/3 mm, 2\%/3
   mm, and 2\%/2 mm criteria, one calculated by the proposed software and
   one manually. The comparison showed high agreement between the proposed
   software and theoretical calculation. Conclusions: Based on the results,
   we concluded that our developed software has high accuracy, compared to
   theoretical calculation. This software could serve as a non-commercial
   and open-source tool for researchers and students.},

Title = {FullControl GCode Designer: Open-source software for unconstrained
   design in additive manufacturing},
Journal = {ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {46},
Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {A new concept is presented for the design of additive manufacturing
   procedures, which is implemented in opensource software called
   FullControl GCode Designer. In this new design approach, the user
   defines every segment of the print-path along with all printing
   parameters, which may be related to geometric and non-geometric factors,
   at all points along the print-path. Machine control code (GCode) is
   directly generated by the software, without the need for any programming
   skills and without using computer-aided design (CAD), STL-files or
   slicing software. Excel is used as the front end for the software, which
   is written in Visual Basic. Case studies are used to demonstrate the
   broad range of structures that can be designed using the software,
   including: precisely controlled specimens for printer calibration,
   parametric specimens for hardware characterisation utilising hundreds of
   unique parameter combinations, novel mathematically defined lattice
   structures, and previously inconceivable 3D geometries that are
   impossible for traditional slicing software to achieve. The FullControl
   design approach enables unconstrained freedom to create nonplanar 3D
   print-paths and break free from traditional restrictions of layerwise
   print-path planning. It also allows nozzle movements to be carefully
   designed both during extrusion and while travelling between disconnected
   extrusion volumes - to overcome inherent limitations of the printing
   process or to improve capabilities for challenging materials. An
   industrial case study shows how explicit print-path design improved
   printer reliability, production time, and print quality for a production
   run of over 1000 parts. FullControl GCode Designer offers a general
   framework for unconstrained design and is not limited to a particular
   type of structure or hardware; transferability to lasers and other
   manufacturing processes is discussed. Parametric design files use a few
   bytes or kilobytes of data to describe all details that are sent to the
   printer, which greatly improves shareability by eliminating any risk of
   errors being introduced during STL file conversion or due to different
   users having inconsistent slicer settings. Adjustable parameters allow
   GCode for revised designs to be produced instantly, instead of the
   laborious traditional routine using multiple software packages and file
   conversions. The FullControl design concept offers new opportunities for
   creative and high-precision use of additive manufacturing systems. It
   facilitates design for additive manufacturing (DfAM) at the smallest
   possible scale based on the fundamental nature of the process (i.e.
   assembly of individual extrusions). The software and source code are
   provided as supplementary data and ongoing updates to improve
   functionality and the user interface will be available at
   www.fullcontrolgcode.com.},

Abstract = {Recent studies suggest that well-known OSS projects struggle to find the
   needed workforce to continue evolving-in part because external
   developers fail to overcome their first contribution barriers. In this
   paper, we investigate how and why quasi-contributors (external
   developers who did not succeed in getting their contributions accepted
   to an OSS project) fail. To achieve our goal. we collected data from 21
   popular, non-trivial GitHub projects, identified quasi-contributors, and
   analyzed their pull-requests. In addition, we conducted surveys with
   quasi-contributors, and project's integrators, to understand their
   perceptions about nonacceptance. We found 10,099 quasi-contributors
   about 70\% of the total actual contributors that submitted 12,367
   nonaccepted pull-requests. In five projects, we found more
   quasi-contributors than actual contributors. About one-third of the
   developers who took our survey disagreed with the nonacceptance, and
   around 30\% declared the nonacceptance demotivated or prevented them
   from placing another pull-request. The main reasons for pull-request
   nonacceptance from the quasicontributors' perspective were
   ``superseded/duplicated pull-request{''} and ``mismatch between
   developer's and team's vision/opinion{''} A manual analysis of a
   representative sample of 263 pull-requests corroborated with this
   finding. We also found reasons related to the relationship with the
   community and lack of experience or commitment from the
   quasi-contributors. This empirical study is particularly relevant to
   those interested in fostering developers' participation and retention in
   OSS communities.},

   (free, libre, open source software) development is really extreme in
   this respect: past publications and studies show a female participation
   of around 2\% to 5\% and have shed some light into this problem. In this
   paper, we give an update the state of knowledge to the current situation
   of gender in FLOSS, by analyzing the results of surveying more than
   2,000 contributors to FLOSS projects in 2013, of which more than 200
   were women. Our findings confirm that women enter the FLOSS community
   later than men, do primarily other tasks than coding, participate less
   if they have children, and have slightly different reasons to enter (and
   to stay in) the development communities they join. However, we also find
   evidence that women are joining FLOSS projects in higher numbers in
   recent years, and that the share of women devoting few hours per week to
   FLOSS and full-time dedication is higher than for men. All in all,
   comparing our results with the ones from the 2000s, the context of
   participation of women in FLOSS has not changed much.},

Abstract = {The development of knowledge requires investment, which may be made in
   terms of financial resources or time. Open source software (OSS) has
   challenged much of the traditional reasoning by suggesting that
   individuals behave altruistically and contribute to a public good,
   despite the opportunity to free-ride. The lion's share of the existing
   literature on OSS examines communities, that is, those individuals whom
   are already part of the OSS community. In contrast, this paper starts
   from users with the requisite skill to use and develop OSS. This group
   of skilled individuals could potentially invest into the development of
   OSS knowledge, but they may or may not do so in actuality. This paper,
   therefore, explores three issues, which have not been extensively
   explored in the literature, namely, (1) how frequently a group of
   skilled people use OSS, (2) reasons for differences among users and
   non-users in terms of use and attitudes, and (3) how frequently, and
   why, some users contribute to OSS projects (and thereby become
   developers). In doing so, we consider the opportunity costs of use and
   development of OSS, which has been largely neglected in the literature.
   We find that the individuals have a rather pragmatic attitude to firms
   and that many are active in both firms and OSS community, which raises
   many questions for future research about the role and influence of firms
   on the development and diffusion of OSS.},

Abstract = {Collective-action problems arise in a variety of situations. Open-source
   software is a recent and important example. Copyright restrictions on
   open-source projects stipulate that any user may modify the software so
   long as any resulting innovation is freely available to all. In economic
   parlance, the innovation is a public good. The economic theory of
   public-good provision raises a number of important questions. Who
   contributes to such a project, and who free rides? How might a social
   planner exploit the interdependence of project components to encourage
   contributions? Under what conditions will such actions result in
   successful provision? Using a simple game-theoretic framework and recent
   results from the study of equilibrium selection, we attempt to answer
   these questions. Under reasonable assumptions of asymmetry and less than
   complete information, the most efficient providers will contribute.
   Contributions can be elicited by `integrating' the provision process
   when providers are sufficiently optimistic about the success of the
   project. Otherwise, the social planner may be better off `separating'
   the components so that individual contributions are independent of each
   other. The analysis yields recommendations for the leaders of
   open-source projects and other similar collective-action problems.},

Abstract = {The purpose of this paper is to analyze the various features and
   functions of open source software for integrated library management
   system (ILMS) and digital library system. The explosion of the World
   Wide Web, dynamic nature of information technologies, like open source;
   and with escalation of electronics resources showed the way of Automated
   Library System (ALS). These changes are replicated in the conceptual
   differences between the ALS and the Integrated Library System (ILS). The
   ALS is acknowledged as simply a database to house and retrieve a
   library's holdings while ILS is acknowledged as robust clusters of
   systems including every process and module linked to library processes.
   This article presents an aspect on the evolving features of some
   commonly adopted Open-Source ILS Software (Koha, NewGenLib, and
   Evergreen) which had encouraged ALS to ILS, as well as justifications
   and barriers to the use of open source. Open source library management
   software is a solution to reducing that cost. The research describes in
   brief about the feature of some of the open source digital library
   software like Greenstone, DSpace E-Prints and integrated library
   software Koha NewGenlib. Evergreen ILS etc., which are useful for
   developing ILS and institutional repositories software in academic
   libraries. Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) is offered as a
   balancing solution to meet librarians' objectives without giving up
   excellence. The endeavor of this research is to confirm not only the
   most used FOSS in libraries but also those alternatives which are not as
   healthy-looking known but with great possible for the community.},

Abstract = {Current estimates suggest widespread adoption of open source software
   (OSS) in organizations worldwide. However, the problematic nature of OSS
   adoption is readily evidenced in the fairly frequent reports of
   problems, unforeseen hold-ups, and outright abandonment of OSS
   implementation over time. Beaumont Hospital, an Irish public sector
   organization, have embarked on the adoption of a range of OSS
   applications over several years, some of which have been successfully
   deployed and remain in live use within the organisation, whereas others,
   despite achieving high levels of assimilation over a number of years,
   have not been ultimately retained in live use in the organization. Using
   a longitudinal case study, we discuss in depth the deployment process
   for two OSS applications - the desktop application suite whose
   deployment was unsuccessful ultimately, and the email application which
   was successfully deployed. To our knowledge, this is the first such
   in-depth study into successful and unsuccessful OSS implementation.
   Given that our study was a longitudinal one in a single organization, we
   can control a number of potentially important influencing elements which
   would not be possible if multiple organizations were involved. In
   particular, the complex interaction of issues to do with voluntariness
   of adoption, image, trialability and absorptive capacity were critical
   influences in the process.},

Abstract = {Network technologies have made rapid progress with the dissemination of
   computer systems in all areas. The current software development
   environment has been changing into new development paradigms such as
   concurrent distributed development environment and the so-called open
   source project by using network computing technologies. Especially, OSS
   (Open Source Software) systems which serve as key components of critical
   infrastructures in the society are still ever-expanding now.
   We focus on OSS developed under open source project. In case of
   considering the effect of the debugging process on an entire system in
   the development of a method of reliability assessment for open source
   project, it is necessary to grasp the deeply-intertwined factors, such
   as programming path, size of each component, skill of fault reporter,
   and so on. In order to consider the effect of each software component on
   the reliability of an entire system under such open source software
   development, we propose a new approach to software reliability
   assessment by creating a fusion of neural networks and a software
   reliability growth model. Also, it has been necessary to manage the
   software development process in terms of reliability, effort, and
   version-upgrade time. In this paper, we find the optimal total
   version-upgrade time based on the total expected software maintenance
   effort.},

Abstract = {Women are underrepresented in Open Source Software (OSS) projects, as a
   result of which, not only do women lose career and skill development
   opportunities, but the projects themselves suffer from a lack of
   diversity of perspectives. Practitioners and researchers need to
   understand more about the phenomenon; however, studies about women in
   open source are spread across multiple fields, including information
   systems, software engineering, and social science. This article
   systematically maps, aggregates, and synthesizes the state-of-the-art on
   women's participation in OSS. It focuses on women contributors'
   representation and demographics, how they contribute, their motivations
   and challenges, and strategies employed by communities to attract and
   retain women. We identified 51 articles (published between 2000 and
   2021) that investigated women's participation in OSS. We found evidence
   in these papers about who are the women who contribute, what motivates
   them to contribute, what types of contributions they make, challenges
   they face, and strategies proposed to support their participation.
   According to these studies, only about 5\% of projects were reported to
   have women as core developers, and women authored less than 5\% of
   pull-requests, but had similar or even higher rates of pull-request
   acceptances than men. Women make both code and non-code contributions,
   and their motivations to contribute include learning new skills,
   altruism, reciprocity, and kinship. Challenges that women face in OSS
   are mainly social, including lack of peer parity and non-inclusive
   communication from a toxic culture. We found 10 strategies reported in
   the literature, which we mapped to the reported challenges. Based on
   these results, we provide guidelines for future research and practice.},

Abstract = {This research is one of the first few to investigate the acceptance of
   open source software in the context of developing countries, in this
   case Thailand. It also proposes a comprehensive model that integrates
   individual, social, and software characteristics to measure the
   acceptance of open source software. Based on the three-pronged approach,
   the study puts forward an integrated model consisting of the extended
   technology model, the innovation diffusion theory and software
   characteristics. A full-scale field survey of 1,005 open source software
   users was undertaken and both convergent and discriminant validities
   were conducted. The results of the structural equation modeling
   illustrate that perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, intention
   to use, output quality, compatibility, software functionality, and
   software maintainability have a statistically positive relationship with
   open source software acceptance. Contrary to most studies, which did not
   find a positive relationship between visibility and trialability towards
   the acceptance of open source software, it is interesting to observe
   that this study did find a positive relationship. Conclusions and
   discussions of the findings, and their academic and practical
   implications are also presented.},

Abstract = {Current estimates suggest widespread adoption of open source software
   (OSS) in organizations worldwide. However, the problematic nature of OSS
   adoption is readily evidenced in the fairly frequent reports of
   problems, unforeseen hold-ups, and outright abandonment of OSS
   implementation over time. Beaumont Hospital, an Irish public sector
   organization, have embarked on the adoption of a range of OSS
   applications over several years, some of which have been successfully
   deployed and remain in live use within the organisation, whereas others,
   despite achieving high levels of assimilation over a number of years,
   have not been ultimately retained in live use in the organization. Using
   a longitudinal case study, we discuss in depth the deployment process
   for two OSS applications - the desktop application suite whose
   deployment was unsuccessful ultimately, and the email application which
   was successfully deployed. To our knowledge, this is the first such
   in-depth study into successful and unsuccessful OSS implementation.
   Given that our study was a longitudinal one in a single organization, we
   can control a number of potentially important influencing elements which
   would not be possible if multiple organizations were involved. In
   particular, the complex interaction of issues to do with voluntariness
   of adoption, image, trialability and absorptive capacity were critical
   influences in the process.},

Abstract = {BackgroundMultimodal histology image registration is a process that
   transforms into a common coordinate system two or more images obtained
   from different microscopy modalities. The combination of information
   from various modalities can contribute to a comprehensive understanding
   of tissue specimens, aiding in more accurate diagnoses, and improved
   research insights. Multimodal image registration in histology samples
   presents a significant challenge due to the inherent differences in
   characteristics and the need for tailored optimization algorithms for
   each modality.ResultsWe developed MMIR a cloud-based system for
   multimodal histological image registration, which consists of three main
   modules: a project manager, an algorithm manager, and an image
   visualization system.ConclusionOur software solution aims to simplify
   image registration tasks with a user-friendly approach. It facilitates
   effective algorithm management, responsive web interfaces, supports
   multi-resolution images, and facilitates batch image registration.
   Moreover, its adaptable architecture allows for the integration of
   custom algorithms, ensuring that it aligns with the specific
   requirements of each modality combination. Beyond image registration,
   our software enables the conversion of segmented annotations from one
   modality to another.},

Abstract = {Technical debt represents unwanted issues that result from decisions
   made to speed up the design or implementation of software at the expense
   of resolving existing issues. Like financial debt, it consists of the
   principal and an interest. Debt is usually paid back through code
   rewrites, refactoring, or the introduction of test code. When unchecked,
   interest can accumulate over time and lead to development crises where
   focus and resources must be shifted to resolve existing debt before the
   development process can be resumed. Existing software tooling allows
   practitioners to quantify the level of debt and identify its sources,
   allowing decision makers to measure and control it. We propose a
   detailed exploration of the characteristics of source code technical
   debt over the lifetime of several popular open-source applications. We
   employed a SonarQube instance configured for longitudinal analysis to
   study all publicly released versions of the target applications,
   amounting to over 15 years' worth of releases for each. We found that a
   small number of issue types were responsible for most of the debt and
   observed that refactoring reduced debt levels across most application
   packages. We observed increased variance in technical debt distribution
   and composition in early application versions, which lessened once
   applications matured. We addressed concerns regarding the accuracy of
   SonarQube estimations and illustrated some of its limitations. We aim to
   continue our research by including additional tools to characterize
   debt, leverage existing open data sets and extend our exploration to
   include additional applications and types of software.},

Abstract = {There is a need to improve fishing methods to select for certain sizes
   and species while excluding others. Experiments are conducted to
   quantify selectivity of fishing gears and how variables such as gear
   design (e.g., mesh size, mesh shape), environmental parameters (e.g.,
   light, turbidity, substrate) or biological parameters (e.g., fish
   condition) alter selectivity; the resulting data need to be analyzed
   using specialized statistical methods in many cases. Here, we present a
   new tool for analyzing this type of data: an R package named
   ``selfisher{''}. It allows estimating multiple fixed effects (e.g., fish
   length, total catch weight, environmental variables) and random effects
   (e.g, haul). A bootstrapping procedure is also provided. We demonstrate
   its use via four case studies, including (A) covered codend analyses of
   four gears, (B) a paired gear study with numerous covariates, (C) a
   catch comparison study of unpaired hauls of gillnets and (D) a catch
   comparison study of paired hauls using polynomials and splines. This
   software will make it easier to model selectivity, teach statistical
   methods, and make analyses more repeatable.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {183},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Free and open source software is widely used in the creation of software
   systems, whereas many organizations choose to provide their systems as
   open source. Open source software carries licenses that determine the
   conditions under which the original software can be used. Appropriate
   use of licenses requires relevant expertise by the practitioners, and
   has an important legal angle. Educators and employers need to ensure
   that developers have the necessary training to understand licensing
   risks and how they can be addressed. At the same time, it is important
   to understand which issues practitioners face when they are using a
   specific open source license, when they are developing new open source
   software products or when they are reusing open source software. In this
   work, we examine questions posed about open source software licensing
   using data from the following Stack Exchange sites: Stack Overflow,
   Software Engineering, Open Source and Law. We analyze the indication of
   specific licenses and topics in the questions, investigate the attention
   the posts receive and trends over time, whether appropriate answers are
   provided and which type of questions are asked. Our results indicate
   that practitioners need, among other, clarifications about licensing
   specific software when other licenses are used, and for understanding
   license content. The results of the study can be useful for educators
   and employers, organizations that are authoring open source software
   licenses and developers for understanding the issues faced when using
   licenses, whereas they are relevant to other software engineering
   research areas, such as software reusability. (C) 2021 Elsevier Inc. All

   in a cooperative intelligent transport system (ITS). In this regard,
   open-source software plays a significant role in prototyping,
   validation, and deployment. Specifically, in the developer community,
   Autoware is a popular open-source software for self-driving vehicles,
   and OpenC2X is an open-source experimental and prototyping platform for
   cooperative ITS. This paper reports on a system named AutoC2X to enable
   cooperative perception by using OpenC2X for Autoware-based autonomous
   vehicles. The developed system is evaluated by conducting field
   experiments involving real hardware. The results demonstrate that
   AutoC2X can deliver the cooperative perception message within 100 ms in
   the worst case.},

Abstract = {Motivation: In this paper, we present an open source package with the
   latest release of Evolutionary-based BIClustering (EBIC), a
   next-generation biclustering algorithm for mining genetic data. The
   major contribution of this paper is adding a full support for multiple
   graphics processing units (GPUs) support, which makes it possible to run
   efficiently large genomic data mining analyses. Multiple enhancements to
   the first release of the algorithm include integration with R and
   Bioconductor, and an option to exclude missing values from the analysis.
   Results: Evolutionary-based BIClustering was applied to datasets of
   different sizes, including a large DNA methylation dataset with 436 444
   rows. For the largest dataset we observed over 6.6-fold speedup in
   computation time on a cluster of eight GPUs compared to running the
   method on a single GPU. This proves high scalability of the method.},

Volume = {20},

Abstract = {Due to various reasons such as ever increasing demands of the customer
   or change in the environment or detection of a bug, changes are
   incorporated in a software. This results in multiple versions or
   evolving nature of a software. Identification of parts of a software
   that are more prone to changes than others is one of the important
   activities. Identifying change prone classes will help developers to
   take focused and timely preventive actions on the classes of the
   software with similar characteristics in the future releases. In this
   paper, we have studied the relationship between various object oriented
   (OO) metrics and change proneness. We collected a set of OO metrics and
   change data of each class that appeared in two versions of an open
   source dataset, `Java TreeView', i.e., version 1.1.6 and version 1.0.3.
   Besides this, we have also predicted various models that can be used to
   identify change prone classes, using machine learning and statistical
   techniques and then compared their performance. The results are analyzed
   using Area Under the Curve (AUC) obtained from Receiver Operating
   Characteristics (ROC) analysis. The results show that the models
   predicted using both machine learning and statistical methods
   demonstrate good performance in terms of predicting change prone
   classes. Based on the results, it is reasonable to claim that quality
   models have a significant relevance with OO metrics and hence can be
   used by researchers for early prediction of change prone classes.},

Abstract = {The literature on open-source requirements is commonly concerned either
   with the processes associated with these requirements or with very
   specific requirements-related aspects of open-source development. In
   this study we bridge between these two approaches by exploring the
   existing relationships between open-source requirements and few
   characteristics of open-source projects (software quality and software
   project success). First we develop a requirements-based taxonomy of
   open-source projects and we discover patterns linking between this
   taxonomy and project success. We also propose a classification of
   requirement types based on their representativeness in open-source
   projects. This highlights the overall importance of various types of
   requirements in the context of open-source software development. We also
   identify exceptions defined as the unusually high frequency of a
   requirement type and explain them based on the specific domain addressed
   within the project containing the exception. Finally, we investigate the
   lifecycle of 16 open-source projects and discover and explain patterns
   of evolution for a number of requirement types.},

Abstract = {The rise in UAV capabilities has significantly boosted aerial monitoring
   activities in recent years. This surge in unmanned aerial vehicles has
   increased attention towards monitoring tasks in vital areas, such as
   urban spaces for security, surveillance or Internet of the Things
   applications. In this sense, we propose an open-source
   software-in-the-loop approach that integrates the complete navigation
   experience, accounting for potential wind-related effects, and providing
   realistic 3D modeling of scenarios encompassing open spaces in city
   landscapes. Our work introduces a wind perturbation estimation strategy,
   which models the wind effect as an external force along the Zaxis based
   on altitude variations from real flights. Validation was conducted using
   real data flights with a quadrotor aiding the navigation with Ardupilot
   and QgroundControl as a ground station. To complement the experiments we
   include a small test with a fixed-wing plane to asses the
   software-in-the-loop accuracy on larger trajectories. Results
   demonstrate successful tracking of altitude variations, yielding errors
   below 10\% relative to the home position in experiments with average
   trajectory lengths of 150 m in two scenarios in Quito. The
   software-in-the-loop simulation aimed to replicate wind conditions
   specific to the date and time of real data acquisition, providing a
   platform to emulate possible improvements and assess UAV performance
   before deployment in actual missions. This research not only contributes
   to the optimization of monitoring capabilities but also serves as a
   valuable tool for assessing UAV missions in diverse and dynamic
   environments.},

Abstract = {Head-mounted eye tracking offers remarkable opportunities for research
   and applications regarding pervasive health monitoring, mental state
   inference, and human computer interaction in dynamic scenarios. Although
   a plethora of software for the acquisition of eye-tracking data exists,
   they often exhibit critical issues when pervasive eye tracking is
   considered, e. g., closed source, costly eye tracker hardware
   dependencies, and requiring a human supervisor for calibration. In this
   paper, we introduce EyeRecToo, an open-source software for real-time
   pervasive head-mounted eye-tracking. Out of the box, EyeRecToo offers
   multiple real-time state-of-the-art pupil detection and gaze estimation
   methods, which can be easily replaced by user implemented algorithms if
   desired. A novel calibration method that allows users to calibrate the
   system without the assistance of a human supervisor is also integrated.
   Moreover, this software supports multiple head-mounted eye-tracking
   hardware, records eye and scene videos, and stores pupil and gaze
   information, which are also available as a real-time stream. Thus,
   EyeRecToo serves as a framework to quickly enable pervasive eye-tracking
   research and applications. Available at:

Abstract = {Tremor is an involuntary rhythmic muscle movement assessed subjectively

   video recorded and rated by multiple experts. Existing video-based
   motion tracking techniques can be applied to quantify tremor assessment;
   though, such methods rely on sophisticated and expensive instrumentation
   as well as specialized skin markers. This paper describes a low-cost
   markerless method using accessible hardware and open-source software. In
   a cohort of 8 subjects with tremor undergoing deep brain stimulation
   therapy, we show our video-based technique has strong concordance (r =
   0.93, p < 0.001) with expert tremor ratings. This makes it suitable for
   point-of-care assessment as well as use in future structured clinical
   trials.},

   INNOVATION},
Journal = {INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND CONTROL},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {38},
Number = {2},
Pages = {91-101},
Abstract = {Much of the literature on open source software (OSS) has focused on the
   role of the community of users and developers as the primary driver of
   OSS growth. This focus on growth generated by the community is referred
   to as ``single factor{''} growth and is an assumption shared by
   literature on the diffusion of innovation. The purpose of this research
   is to attempt to fit a logistic model to a well-known OSS project as a
   confirmatory exercise supporting the use of a single factor growth model
   as suggested by the literature. The results show that a logistic model,
   or any kind of single factor model, is inadequate to describe the
   diffusion of the OSS project. The paper then explains conceptually and
   illustrates mathematically why single factor models cannot fully
   represent the diffusion of any OSS project. A well-known two-factor
   model drawn from the marketing literature is presented, shown to solve
   the problem of single factor models, and used to illustrate the
   importance of marketing in OSS projects. This research suggests that the
   OSS literature may be overemphasizing the importance of the size of the
   user and developer community during the initial stages of growth and
   that during these stages the diffusion of the OSS project is primarily
   driven by external forces such as advertising or marketing efforts.},

Abstract = {Structural reliability methods aim at the computation of failure
   probabilities of structural systems with methods of statistical analysis
   due to varied uncertainties occurring during their design, building or
   even operating conditions. However, in the field of civil engineering,
   the use of structural reliability methods unfortunately remains limited
   to specific cases. Most of the software available has still a limited
   range concerning wide parametric studies for analysis with reliability
   methods in civil engineering. This paper describes a new open-source
   software library as an effective tool for reliability analysis in civil
   engineering. The goal is to facilitate the adoption of reliability
   methods among engineers in practice as well as to provide an open
   platform for further scientific collaboration. The new library is being
   developed as a so-called ``R package{''} in open-source programming
   software ``R{''}. The package is capable of carrying out systematic
   parameter studies using different probabilistic reliability methods, as
   FORM, SORM, Monte Carlo Simulation. Based on this, an overview on the
   probabilistic reliability methods implemented in the package as well as
   results of parametric studies is given. The performance of the package
   will be shown with a parametric study on a practical example. Most
   important results of the parametric study as well as the correctness of
   different reliability methods will be described in the paper. By
   describing probabilistic methods using an example in practice, engineers
   can get a basic understanding behind the ideas of probability theories.
   Further work will result in large parameter studies, which will support
   the development of a new guideline for reliability in civil engineering.
   This guideline describes techniques of code calibration as well as to
   determine new partial safety factors (e.g. for non-metallic reinforced
   concrete, fixing anchors, etc.). Furthermore, advanced reliability
   methods (e.g. Monte Carlo with Subset Sampling) will be implemented in
   the new R package.},

Volume = {30},
Number = {2},
Pages = {291-314},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {The emerging work on understanding open source software has questioned
   what leads to effectiveness in OSS development teams in the absence of
   formal controls, and it has pointed to the importance of ideology. This
   paper develops a framework of the OSS community ideology (including
   specific norms, beliefs, and values) and a theoretical model to show how
   adherence to components of the ideology impacts effectiveness in OSS
   teams. The model is based on the idea that the tenets of the OSS
   ideology motivate behaviors that enhance cognitive trust and
   communication quality and encourage identification with the project
   team, which enhances affective trust. Trust and communication in turn
   impact OSS team effectiveness. The research considers two kinds of
   effectiveness in OSS teams: the attraction and retention of developer
   input and the generation of project outputs. Hypotheses regarding
   antecedents to each are developed. Hypotheses are tested using survey
   and objective data on OSS projects. Results support the main thesis that
   OSS team members' adherence to the tenets of the OSS community ideology
   impacts OSS team effectiveness and reveal that different components
   impact effectiveness in different ways. Of particular interest is the
   finding that adherence to some ideological components was beneficial to
   the effectiveness of the team in terms of attracting and retaining
   input, but detrimental to the output of the team. Theoretical and
   practical implications are discussed.},

Abstract = {Rapid open-source software and hardware prototyping fueled by the
   significant expansion of the development community, led to the
   deployment of highly sophisticated frameworks, solutions and products.
   However, as the provided open-source solutions are managed in all
   aspects by their designers/engineers, they lack professional evaluation
   of their security level. The absence of comprehensive security
   assessment as well as a consolidated and ubiquitous roadmap for
   vulnerability patching and security hardening, makes open-source
   solution a risk for widespread enterprise use. This paper introduces a
   security assurance approach which addresses open-source hardware and
   software shortcoming in an end-to-end manner, by providing a logical
   decomposition of any such module into four distinct component layers:
   device, network, application and cognitive. This allows highly focused
   security assessment, taking into consideration the specific
   characteristics of each layer. In addition, the paper provides an
   approach on how open-source solution security can be improved, through
   decomposition, layered vulnerability mitigation and specialized security
   hardening techniques. The proposed framework which is the main research
   and innovation focus of the SecOPERA Project intends to transform an
   open source solution to a protected one, as well as provide security
   guarantees of its overall security status.},

Abstract = {This is a proof-of-concept study to create a four-dimensional (4-D) cine
   model of the heart and visualize it in virtual reality by using freely

   Four-dimensional cine models allow for real-time visualization of
   cardiac structures during processes such as complex congenital heart
   disease. Such models can be used for patient and trainee education, and
   potentially for surgical planning. Currently, 3-D printed models are
   more commonly used, but they are static, showing only one selected phase
   of the cardiac cycle. Second, they are limited by the selection of
   clipping planes before printing. Four-dimensional segmentation and
   virtual reality visualization overcome these limitations. Currently,
   most of the work in virtual/augmented reality models involves the
   segmentation of one cardiac phase or the use of expensive software for
   multiphase segmentation. In this study, we show an approach for
   multiphase cardiac segmentation as well as its display using free
   open-source software and relatively inexpensive hardware.},

Abstract = {The paper deals with the use of open source software in education. Open
   source software is used more and more all over the world. Linux,
   Mozilla, MySQL, OpenOffice.org etc. are very well-known packages. A lot
   of open source programs are developed especially for educational
   purposes: virtual teaming environments, editors, simulators,
   microworlds, subject-based teaming applications, etc. The main problem
   of this field is to involve educators and policy makers to disseminate
   effectively information about open source, and to bring students and
   teachers together for improving open code. The investigations on open
   source are being fulfilled in a few Lithuanian institutions. The main
   objectives are to validate the economic and pedagogical utility of open
   source software in schools.},

Abstract = {Despite a considerable body of literature investigating factors involved
   in the Open Source Software (OSS) adoption process, there is little
   research into adoption of OSS by public sector organisations. So it was
   important to reassess the factors enabling OSS adoption in order to
   enhance OSS utilization within public sector organisations. This study
   explored various factors that may enable OSS adoption within Australian
   Public Sector (APS) organisations by interviewing those involved in
   software procurement. The findings were analysed through the lens of
   administrative complexity associated with OSS adoption. Success of OSS
   in government agencies was found to be contingent on critical aspects
   such as availability of support and maintainability of OSS products,
   ability to meet organisational business needs in a cost effective
   manner, economic value associated with OSS such as maintenance and
   training costs, and attitude of staff toward OSS. The findings suggested
   that value for money and fit for purpose criteria described in
   Commonwealth Procurement Guidelines were the major enablers of OSS
   adoption.},

Abstract = {Robot capability of listening to several things at once by its own ears,
   that is, robot audition, is important in improving human-robot
   interaction. The critical issue in robot audition is real-time
   processing in noisy environments with high flexibility to support
   various kinds of robots and hardware configurations. This paper presents
   open-source robot audition software, called ``HARK{''}, which includes
   sound source localization, separation, and automatic speech recognition
   (ASR). Since separated sounds suffer from spectral distortion due to
   separation, HARK generates a temporal-frequency map of reliability
   called ``missing feature mask{''}, for features of separated sounds.
   Then separated sounds are recognized by the Missing-Feature Theory (MFT)
   based ASR with missing feature masks. HARK is implemented on the
   middleware called ``FlowDesigner{''} to share intermediate audio data,
   which provides real-time processing. HARK's performance in recognition
   of noisy/simultaneous speech is shown by using three humanoid robots,
   Honda ASIMO, SIG2 and Robovie with different microphone layouts.},

Journal = {AOB PLANTS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {13},

Abstract = {Roots are central to the function of natural and agricultural ecosystems
   by driving plant acquisition of soil resources and influencing the
   carbon cycle. Root characteristics like length, diameter and volume are
   critical to measure to understand plant and soil functions. RhizoVision
   Explorer is an open-source software designed to enable researchers
   interested in roots by providing an easy-to-use interface, fast image
   processing and reliable measurements. The default broken roots mode is
   intended for roots sampled from pots and soil cores, washed and
   typically scanned on a flatbed scanner, and provides measurements like
   length, diameter and volume. The optional whole root mode for complete
   root systems or root crowns provides additional measurements such as
   angles, root depth and convex hull. Both modes support providing
   measurements grouped by defined diameter ranges, the inclusion of
   multiple regions of interest and batch analysis. RhizoVision Explorer
   was successfully validated against ground truth data using a new copper
   wire image set. In comparison, the current reference software, the
   commercial WinRhizo (TM), drastically underestimated volume when wires
   of different diameters were in the same image. Additionally,
   measurements were compared with WinRhizo (TM) and IJ\_Rhizo using a
   simulated root image set, showing general agreement in software
   measurements, except for root volume. Finally, scanned root image sets
   acquired in different labs for the crop, herbaceous and tree species
   were used to compare results from RhizoVision Explorer with WinRhizo
   (TM). The two software showed general agreement, except that WinRhizo
   (TM) substantially underestimated root volume relative to RhizoVision
   Explorer. In the current context of rapidly growing interest in root
   science, RhizoVision Explorer intends to become a reference software,
   improve the overall accuracy and replicability of root trait
   measurements and provide a foundation for collaborative improvement and
   reliable access to all.},

Abstract = {Designing and optimizing deep models require managing large datasets and
   conducting carefully designed controlled experiments that depend on
   large sets of hyper-parameters and problem dependent software/data
   configurations. These experiments are executed by training the model
   under observation with varying configurations. Since executing a typical
   training run can take days even on proven acceleration fabrics such as
   Graphics Processing Units (GPU), properly managing training data,
   avoiding human error in configuration preparations and securing the
   repeatability of the experiments are of utmost importance. In this
   paper, we present two open source software tools that aim to achieve
   these goals, namely, a Dataset Manager (DatumAid) tool and a Training
   Automation Manager (OrchesTrain) tool. DatumAid is a software tool that
   integrates with Computer Vision Annotation Tool (CVAT) to facilitate the
   management of annotated datasets. By adding additional functionality,
   DatumAid allows users to filter labeled data, manipulate datasets, and
   export datasets for training purposes. The tool adopts a simple code
   structure while providing flexibility to users through configuration
   files. OrchesTrain aims to automate model training process by
   facilitating rapid preparation and training of models in the desired
   style for the intended tasks. Users can seamlessly integrate their
   models prepared in the PyTorch library into the system and leverage the
   full capabilities of OrchesTrain. It enables the simultaneous or
   separate usage of Wandb, MLflow, and TensorBoard loggers. To ensure
   reproducibility of the conducted experiments, all configurations and
   codes are saved to the selected logger in an appropriate structure
   within a YAML file along with the serialized model files. Both software
   tools are publicly available on GitHub.},

Abstract = {The eddy covariance method is regularly used for measuring gas fluxes
   over agricultural fields and natural ecosystems. For many applications,
   it is desirable to partition the measured fluxes into constitutive
   components: the water vapor flux into transpiration and direct
   evaporation components, and the carbon dioxide flux into photosynthesis
   and respiration components. The flux variance similarity (FVS)
   partitioning method is based on flux variance similarity relationships
   and correlation analyses of high-frequency eddy covariance data (Scanlon
   and Sahu, 2008; Scanlon and Kustas, 2010, 2012). The FVS method is
   relatively complex computationally, and that complexity has likely been
   an impediment to greater use and testing of the procedure. In this work,
   we present a new algebraic solution to the key computational task in the
   partitioning algorithm, which significantly simplifies the FVS method.
   We also introduce Fluxpart, a free and open source Python 3 module that
   implements the FVS partitioning procedure. Example flux partitioning
   calculations are presented.},

Volume = {47},
Number = {1},
Pages = {S123-S126},

Abstract = {Despite the extensive use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) for
   metabolomics, no publicly available tools have been designed for
   identifying and quantifying metabolites across multiple spectra. We
   introduce here a new open source software tool, rNMR, which provides a
   simple graphics-based method for visualizing, identifying, and
   quantifying metabolites across multiple one- or two-dimensional NMR
   spectra. rNMR differs from existing software tools for NMR spectroscopy
   in that analyses are based on regions of interest (ROIs) rather than
   peak lists. ROIs contain all of the underlying NMR data within
   user-defined chemical shift ranges. ROIs can be inspected visually, and
   they support robust quantification of NMR signals. ROI-based analyses
   support simultaneous views of metabolite signals from up to hundreds of
   spectra, and ROI boundaries can be adjusted dynamically to ensure that
   signals corresponding to assigned atoms are analyzed consistently
   throughout the dataset. We describe how rNMR greatly reduces the time
   required for robust bioanalytical analysis of complex NMR data. An rNMR
   analysis yields a compact and transparent way of archiving the results
   from a metabolomics study so that it can be examined and evaluated by
   others. The rNMR website at http://rnmr.nmrfam.wisc.edu offers
   downloadable versions of rNMR for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux
   platforms along with extensive help documentation, instructional videos,
   and sample data. Copyright (C) 2009 John Wiley \& Sons, Ltd.},

Journal = {EUROPEAN MANAGEMENT REVIEW},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {6},
Number = {2},

Abstract = {Free, libre or open-source software (FLOSS) is nowadays produced not
   only by individual benevolent developers but, in a growing proportion,
   by firms that hire programmers for their own objectives of development
   in open source or for contributing to open-source projects in the
   context of dedicated communities. A recent literature has focused on the
   question of the business models explaining how and why firms may draw
   benefits from such involvement and their connected activities. They can
   be considered as the building blocks of a new modus operandi of an
   industry, built on an alternative approach to intellectual property
   management. Its prospects will depend on both the firms' willingness to
   rally and its ability to compete with the traditional `proprietary'
   approach. As a matter of fact, firms' involvement in FLOSS, while
   growing, remains very contrasted, depending on the nature of the
   products and the characteristics of the markets. This paper asks why
   for-profit firms contribute to FLOSS development and why some firms
   contribute more than others. The common explanation is that FLOSS is
   often a complement to proprietary software (or hardware or services)
   that the for-profit firm sells at a positive price. We present an
   alternative explanation based on the users' skill level. When users are
   skilled, opening the software is likely to result in a better product
   because the user base will contribute improvements (find bugs, write
   fixes and produce new features). We introduce the concept of the
   dominant user's skill and set up a theoretical model to better
   understand how it may condition the nature and outcome of the
   competition between a FLOSS firm and a proprietary firm. We discuss
   these results in the light of stylized facts drawn from recent trends in
   the software industry. European Management Review (2009) 6, 130-139.

Abstract = {Current estimates suggest widespread adoption of open source software
   (OSS) in organizations worldwide. However, the problematic nature of OSS
   adoption is readily evidenced in the fairly frequent reports of
   problems, unforeseen hold-ups, and outright abandonment of OSS
   implementation over time. Beaumont Hospital, an Irish public sector
   organization, have embarked on the adoption of a range of OSS
   applications over several years, some of which have been successfully
   deployed and remain in live use within the organisation, whereas others,
   despite achieving high levels of assimilation over a number of years,
   have not been ultimately retained in live use in the organization. Using
   a longitudinal case study, we discuss in depth the deployment process
   for two OSS applications - the desktop application suite whose
   deployment was unsuccessful ultimately, and the email application which
   was successfully deployed. To our knowledge, this is the first such
   in-depth study into successful and unsuccessful OSS implementation.
   Given that our study was a longitudinal one in a single organization, we
   can control a number of potentially important influencing elements which
   would not be possible if multiple organizations were involved. In
   particular, the complex interaction of issues to do with voluntariness
   of adoption, image, trialability and absorptive capacity were critical
   influences in the process.},

Abstract = {Digitalization and digital health are transforming research practices,
   while economic growth is increasingly driven by the information commons.
   In the case of biological sciences, information commons, such as public
   biobanks and free/libre open source software (FLOSS), are of paramount
   importance for both research and the bioeconomy. In a time of
   digitalization, however, information commons are vulnerable to
   violations, such as the free-rider problem, that render the commons
   unsustainable. Consequently, it has been argued that the enclosure of
   the informational common resources is the only means to effectively
   exploit them. Given the social and economic importance of the
   information commons, the new digital environment in biology and health
   requires governance innovation that will regulate the social embedding
   of the commons and their relationship to the free market, that is, a new
   political economy is needed. In this context, the need for a core common
   infrastructure, stretching from the physical to the logical and content
   layer of the information environment, that will guarantee the protection
   of the commons from both violations and enclosures, has been
   highlighted. Focusing on the interaction between two
   biological/bioinformatics commons, namely public biobanks and the FLOSS,
   we have set up an ecosystem relying on a blockchain technology. The
   proposed governance mechanism protects the information commons from the
   free-rider problem and guarantees their sustainability without hampering
   their operational framework. Our model demonstrates the interdependence
   and protection of the information commons not as an abstract theoretical
   exercise, but rather as a physical reality on the digital ontological
   matrix.},

Abstract = {The increasing need for continuous innovation has given rise to a

   users enrolled in Linux forums for open-source software distributions.
   The path analysis and bootstrap samples revealed that customers who
   exhibit a high innate innovativeness and feel that they belong in the
   online community show a greater motivation towards platform exploration
   and participation in co-creation. Moreover, the effect of this synergic
   interaction on their co-creation participation was partially mediated by
   the normative dimension of their intrinsic motivation, while the hedonic
   dimension was not a strong predictor of co-creation contributions. This
   study fills the voids in the existing literature by showcasing the

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is extensively utilized in industry and
   government because it allows for open access to the source code and
   allows for external involvement in the software development process.
   There are several factors driving this movement in a government setting,
   making it difficult to assess the adoption's success. Through a study of
   billions of rows of GitHub activity data, this research analyzes the
   production of OSS by administrations in German-speaking countries in
   detail and analyses the motivating factors and challenges to OSS
   adoption through a literature review. Similar studies have been
   conducted in other nations, with somewhat different approaches, foci,
   and different ways to identify public GitHub users as well as insiders
   and outsiders of OSS projects. 16 consequences of OSS usage and
   development are listed in the paper. On GitHub, we found 1021 OSS
   projects run by public agencies in largly German-speaking nations. We
   then compiled a list of the most popular projects based on commits and
   the most active public agencies in terms of projects. The research also
   finds automatic contributions by bots, which have not been taken into
   account in the literature so far, and demonstrates highly substantial
   positive correlations between commits, forks, and stars as proxy for the
   popularity of these projects. This research introduces a new method for
   identifying government organizations in OSS platforms and illuminates
   the possible positive and negative effects of the public sector's
   release and adoption of open source software.},

Abstract = {One opportunity for organizations to participate in open source software
   (OSS) development is through organizations OSS (orgsOSS), a term we use
   to describe a group of organizations that commit resources to
   collectively develop OSS. This archetype of OSS development is distinct
   from other types that include organizations, yet is understudied. As
   organizations increasingly contribute to and rely on OSS as part of
   their strategy, understanding how they can collaborate to build software
   holds importance for the future of software development. This study
   collects a unique dataset of development tasks from a large orgsOSS
   project spanning over two years and seven releases. Building on existing
   OSS research, we explore norms with respect to collaboration, i.e., how
   developers assign, discuss, and complete tasks, in an orgsOSS project.
   Interestingly, our analysis reveals that developers in orgsOSS do not
   always adhere to ideals of widespread sharing and participation espoused
   by traditional OSS, however some developer and task characteristics
   helped foster these ideals. Based on these and other findings, we
   develop a set of propositions and associated collaboration mechanisms
   that are important to future orgsOSS and other similarly structured
   software development projects.},

Title = {The Contribution of Open Source Software in Identifying Environmental
   Crimes Caused by Illicit Waste Management in Urban Areas},
Journal = {URBAN SCIENCE},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {8},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {This study focuses on the analysis, implementation and integration of
   techniques and methods, also based on mathematical algorithms and
   artificial intelligence (AI), to acquire knowledge of some phenomena
   that produce pollution with an impact on environmental health, and which
   start from illicit practices that occur in urban areas. In many urban
   areas (or agroecosystems), the practice of illegal waste disposing by
   commercial activities, by abandoning it in the countryside rather than
   spending economic resources to ensure correct disposal, is widespread.
   This causes an accumulation of waste in these areas (which can also be
   protected natural areas), which are then also set on fire to reduce
   their volume. Obviously, the repercussions of such actions are many. The
   burning of waste releases contaminants into the environment such as
   dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls and furans, and deposits other
   elements on the soil, such as heavy metals, which, by leaching and
   percolating, contaminate water resources such as rivers and aquifers.
   The main objective is the design and implementation of monitoring
   programs against specific illicit activities that take into account
   territorial peculiarities. This advanced approach leverages AI and GIS
   environments to interpret environmental states, providing an
   understanding of ongoing phenomena. The methodology used is based on the
   implementation of mathematical and AI algorithms, integrated into a GIS
   environment to address even large-scale environmental issues, improving
   the spatial and temporal precision of the analyses and allowing the
   customization of monitoring programs in urban and peri-urban
   environments based on territorial characteristics. The results of the
   application of the methodology show the percentages of the different
   types of waste found in the agroecosystems of the study area and the
   degree of concentration, allowing the identification of similar areas
   with greater criticality. Subsequently, through network and nearest
   neighbour analysis, it is possible to start targeted checks.},

Title = {An open source software for fast grid-based data-mining in spatial
   epidemiology (FGBASE)},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HEALTH GEOGRAPHICS},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {13},
Month = {OCT 30},
Abstract = {Background: Examining whether disease cases are clustered in space is an
   important part of epidemiological research. Another important part of
   spatial epidemiology is testing whether patients suffering from a
   disease are more, or less, exposed to environmental factors of interest
   than adequately defined controls. Both approaches involve determining
   the number of cases and controls (or population at risk) in specific
   zones. For cluster searches, this often must be done for millions of
   different zones. Doing this by calculating distances can lead to very
   lengthy computations. In this work we discuss the computational
   advantages of geographical grid-based methods, and introduce an open
   source software (FGBASE) which we have created for this purpose.
   Methods: Geographical grids based on the Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area
   projection are well suited for spatial epidemiology because they
   preserve area: each cell of the grid has the same area. We describe how
   data is projected onto such a grid, as well as grid-based algorithms for
   spatial epidemiological data-mining. The software program (FGBASE), that
   we have developed, implements these grid-based methods.
   Results: The grid based algorithms perform extremely fast. This is
   particularly the case for cluster searches. When applied to a cohort of
   French Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) patients, as an example, the grid based
   algorithms detected potential clusters in a few seconds on a modern
   laptop. This compares very favorably to an equivalent cluster search
   using distance calculations instead of a grid, which took over 4 hours
   on the same computer. In the case study we discovered 4 potential
   clusters of T1D cases near the cities of Le Havre, Dunkerque, Toulouse
   and Nantes. One example of environmental analysis with our software was
   to study whether a significant association could be found between
   distance to vineyards with heavy pesticide. None was found. In both
   examples, the software facilitates the rapid testing of hypotheses.
   Conclusions: Grid-based algorithms for mining spatial epidemiological
   data provide advantages in terms of computational complexity thus
   improving the speed of computations. We believe that these methods and
   this software tool (FGBASE) will lower the computational barriers to
   entry for those performing epidemiological research.},

Abstract = {Open source software is becoming increasingly popular in organizational

   open source software development among individual users, little research
   has explored whether these sharing concepts are also present in
   organizational use of open source software products. This study uses a
   theory integration approach to develop some initial insight into the
   differences between users and non-users of open source software. This
   study observed three groups of factors from six case studies of
   information sharing in the context of organizational open source
   software use. These factors were integrated with prior research in order
   to understand the physical and managerial barriers to, and enablers of,
   open source. The study proposes that open source users have more
   extensive knowledge sharing and teamwork practices in place, and are
   more tolerant of risk. The study also argues that open source users
   depended less on external technology support services but have more
   extensive information technology ( IT) support structures. Copyright (C)

Abstract = {The continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines
   are widely adopted on Internet hosting platforms, such as GitHub.
   However, current CI/CD pipelines suffer from malicious code and severe
   vulnerabilities. Even worse, people have not been fully aware of its
   attack surfaces and the corresponding impacts. Therefore, in this paper,
   we conduct a large-scale measurement and a systematic analysis to reveal
   the attack surfaces of the CI/CD pipeline and quantify their security
   impacts. Specifically, for the measurement, we collect a data set of
   320,000+ CI/CD pipeline-configured GitHub repositories and build an
   analysis tool to parse the CI/CD pipelines and extract security-critical
   usages. Our measurement reveals that the script runtimes are prone to
   code hiding while the script usage update is not in time, giving
   attackers chances to hide malicious code and exploit existing
   vulnerabilities. Moreover, even the scripts from verified creators may
   contain severe vulnerabilities. Besides current CI/CD ecosystem heavily
   relies on several core scripts, which may lead to a single point of
   failure. While the CI/CD pipelines contain sensitive
   information/operations, making them the attacker's favorite targets.
   Inspired by the measurement findings, we abstract the threat model and
   the attack approach toward CI/CD pipelines, followed by a systematic
   analysis of attack surfaces, attack strategies, and the corresponding
   impacts. We further launch case studies on five attacks in real-world
   CI/CD environments to validate the revealed attack surfaces. Finally, we
   give suggestions on mitigating attacks on CI/CD scripts, including
   securing CI/CD configurations, securing CI/CD scripts, and improving
   CI/CD infrastructure.},

   pressures? A business model perspective},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF ENTERPRISE INFORMATION MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {30},
Number = {4},
Pages = {534-554},
Abstract = {Purpose - Open Source software companies (OSSCs) are confronted with
   institutional pressures from Open Source software (OSS) communities.
   They must find an acceptable balance between the expectations of these
   communities and their own business model. However, there are still few
   studies that try to analyse the OSSC business models. The purpose of
   this paper is to highlight OSSC typical business models by using rich
   empirical data.
   Design/methodology/approach - The methodology is based on a combination
   of quantitative analysis of a sample of 66 OSSCs and qualitative
   analysis of three typical situations resulting from that sample.
   Findings - The quantitative study enables the authors to highlight three
   typical business models. The in-depth study of three typical cases
   enables the authors to specify these OSSC business models. The authors
   can distinguish four key dimensions: the relationship developed with the
   OSS communities, the strategic manoeuvres made, the key resources and
   competitive positioning.
   Research limitations/implications - The results indicate that it is
   possible for firms to accommodate both profit and non-profit logics
   using different strategic manoeuvres to position themselves with regard
   to the Open Source institutional environment. Such accommodation
   requires the development of key resources and the adoption of suitable
   competitive positioning. Practical implications - This study allows the
   authors to highlight two main practical contributions for OSSCs'
   directors. First, the different manoeuvres identified may help them to
   ensure coherence between their strategic choices and the business model
   chosen. Second, the results can help OSSC founders identify value
   creation mechanisms more clearly by analysing four key variables.
   Originality/value - This paper provides new insight about OSSCs business
   models. It aggregates four dimensions that provide a more
   ``fine-grained{''} analysis of business models, while other studies
   often emphasise one dimension (usually the regime of appropriability).},

Abstract = {We present a fairly general model in which firms are competitors in a
   commercial market segment and can invest into a complementary public
   good like open source software. We show that, contrary to standard
   predictions, additional contribution to the public good by the
   government or a new market entrant can lead to higher investments of all
   incumbent firms, that is, a crowding-in effect. This result occurs if
   the investment cost function is superadditive. We find that government
   contribution leads to larger crowding-in effects than subsidizing market
   entry if the price elasticity of demand with respect to the private good
   is large relative to the one with respect to the public good. Our
   results are robust to extensions in the timing and the mode of
   competition. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {This paper illustrates an evolution in state-of-the-art speaker

   adaptation, while the latest compensation methods have a crucial impact
   on overall performances. Nuisance attribute projection (NAP) and factor
   analysis (FA) are examined and shown to provide significant
   improvements. For FA, a new symmetrical scoring (SFA) approach is
   proposed. We also show further improvement with an original combination

Abstract = {Software evolution is a fact of life. Over the past thirty years,
   researchers have proposed hypotheses on how software changes, and
   provided evidence that both supports and refutes these hypotheses. To
   paint a clearer image of the software evolution process, we performed an
   empirical study on long spans in the lifetime of seven open source
   projects. Our analysis covers 653 official releases, and a combined 69
   years of evolution. We first tried to verify Lehman's laws of software
   evolution. Our findings indicate that several of these laws are
   confirmed, while the rest can be either confirmed or infirmed depending
   on the laws' operational definitions. Second, we analyze the growth rate
   for projects' development and maintenance branches, and the distribution
   of software changes. We find similarities in the evolution patterns of
   the programs we studied, which brings us closer to constructing rigorous
   models for software evolution.},

Journal = {ADVANCES IN ENGINEERING SOFTWARE},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {69},
Pages = {1-11},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Currently, open source software (OSS) products have started to become
   popular in the market as an alternative to traditional proprietary or
   closed source software. Governments and organizations are beginning to
   adopt OSS on a large scale and several governmental initiatives have
   encouraged the use of OSS in the private sector. One major issue for the
   government and private sector is the selection of appropriate OSS. This
   paper uses new internal quality characteristics for selecting OSS that
   can be added to the dimensions of DeLone and McLean information systems'
   model. Through this study, the quality characteristics are organized in
   a two level hierarchy, which list characteristics and
   sub-characteristics that are interconnected with three main dimensions:
   system quality, information quality and service quality. These
   characteristic dimensions are tailored to the criteria having been built
   from literature study and standard for software quality and guidelines.
   This paper presents case study results of applying the proposed quality
   characteristic on eight different open source software that are divided
   between open source network tools and learning management systems. (C)

Abstract = {Urban building modeling tools are developing rapidly; these tools use
   emerging simulation workflows for specific urban environmental design
   tasks, such as assessing the impacts of energy efficiency technologies
   at a district scale. However, with the emergence of new environmental
   design tasks, addressing all possible use cases and tasks is challenging
   and cannot be covered by a single tool. Urban-scale analysis at this
   level of complexity often requires linking multiple emerging tools,
   rather than using a single tool, to adequately evaluate a variety of
   possible fields in urban environmental design. To achieve this, flexible
   platforms are needed to support multiple input formats (e.g., geometric
   and non-geometric building properties), enabling the mapping of such
   inputs to underlying simulation engines.
   This paper provides an overview of the open-source URBANopt Software
   Development Kit (SDK) for modeling high-performance buildings and energy
   systems at a district scale. URBANopt's flexible SDK is composed of
   several modules that can be customized to integrate with other tools and
   generate new workflows to perform urban environmental design tasks, such
   as capturing interactions between individual buildings, district energy
   systems, distributed energy resources, and the electric distribution
   grid.
   We describe the functionality of the core SDK modules in URBANopt
   (called Core Gem, GeoJSON Gem, and Scenario Gem) and discuss the
   flexibility of these modules as a means of integration with a variety of
   tools. We also document and demonstrate technical details of writing and
   combining new modules to create customized workflows. Finally, we
   present a case study that uses the URBANopt SDK to model a hypothetical
   mixed-use urban project and simulate various scenarios to meet district
   energy performance goals.},

Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MEDICAL INFORMATICS},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {78},
Number = {7},
Pages = {457-472},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Purpose: Little has been published about the application profiles and
   development patterns of open source software (OSS) in health and medical
   informatics. This study explores these issues with an analysis of health
   and medical informatics related OSS projects on SourceForge, a large
   repository of open source projects.
   Methodology: A search was conducted on the SourceForge website during
   the period from May 1 to 15, 2007, to identify health and medical
   informatics OSS projects. This search resulted in a sample of 174
   projects. A Java-based parser was written to extract data for several of
   the key variables of each project. Several visually descriptive
   statistics were generated to analyze the profiles of the OSS projects.
   Results: Many of the projects have sponsors, implying a growing interest
   in OSS among organizations. Sponsorship, we discovered, has a
   significant impact on project success metrics. Nearly two-thirds of the
   projects have a restrictive license type. Restrictive licensing may
   indicate tighter control over the development process. Our sample
   includes a wide range of projects that are at various stages of
   development (status). Projects targeted towards the advanced end user
   are primarily focused on bio-informatics, data formats, database and
   medical science applications.
   Conclusion: We conclude that there exists an active and thriving OSS
   development community that is focusing on health and medical
   informatics. A wide range of OSS applications are in development, from
   bio-informatics to hospital information systems. A profile of OSS in
   health and medical informatics emerges that is distinct and unique to
   the health care field. Future research can focus on OSS acceptance and
   diffusion and impact on cost, efficiency and quality of health care. (C)

Title = {The Gaggle: An open-source software system for integrating
   bioinformatics software and data sources},
Journal = {BMC BIOINFORMATICS},
Year = {2006},
Volume = {7},
Month = {MAR 28},
Abstract = {Background: Systems biologists work with many kinds of data, from many
   different sources, using a variety of software tools. Each of these
   tools typically excels at one type of analysis, such as of microarrays,
   of metabolic networks and of predicted protein structure. A crucial
   challenge is to combine the capabilities of these (and other
   forthcoming) data resources and tools to create a data exploration and
   analysis environment that does justice to the variety and complexity of
   systems biology data sets. A solution to this problem should recognize
   that data types, formats and software in this high throughput age of
   biology are constantly changing.
   Results: In this paper we describe the Gaggle -a simple, open-source
   Java software environment that helps to solve the problem of software
   and database integration. Guided by the classic software engineering
   strategy of separation of concerns and a policy of semantic flexibility,
   it integrates existing popular programs and web resources into a
   user-friendly, easily-extended environment.
   We demonstrate that four simple data types (names, matrices, networks,
   and associative arrays) are sufficient to bring together diverse
   databases and software. We highlight some capabilities of the Gaggle
   with an exploration of Helicobacter pylori pathogenesis genes, in which
   we identify a putative ricin-like protein -a discovery made possible by
   simultaneous data exploration using a wide range of publicly available
   data and a variety of popular bioinformatics software tools.
   Conclusion: We have integrated diverse databases (for example, KEGG,
   BioCyc, String) and software (Cytoscape, DataMatrixViewer, R statistical
   environment, and TIGR Microarray Expression Viewer). Through this loose
   coupling of diverse software and databases the Gaggle enables
   simultaneous exploration of experimental data (mRNA and protein
   abundance, protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions), functional
   associations (operon, chromosomal proximity, phylogenetic pattern),
   metabolic pathways (KEGG) and Pubmed abstracts (STRING web resource),
   creating an exploratory environment useful to `web browser and
   spreadsheet biologists', to statistically savvy computational
   biologists, and those in between. The Gaggle uses Java RMI and Java Web
   Start technologies and can be found at http:// gaggle. systemsbiology.

Abstract = {The emergence of open source software (OSS) as a form of peer production

   its non-reliance on traditional governance mechanisms to organise

   value creation and capture. The objective of this paper is to theorise
   how firms create and capture value from OSS. We derive a model from
   extant research and refine it through the study of three
   inter-organisational networks. The findings reveal how a firm's ability
   to access a value network of complementors is crucial for effective
   value creation and capture. Two types of networks are evident: a
   high-density network of familiar partners and a low-density network of
   multiple, often unfamiliar, partners. Leveraging these networks depends
   on the level of commitment, volume of knowledge exchange and the
   alignment of objectives among participant firms. Effective governance is
   revealed as critical for creating and capturing value within both types
   of network; and depends on both formal and informal mechanisms.},

Abstract = {Purpose: A growing number of commercial open source software, based on
   community open source, appears in many segments of the software market.
   The purpose of this study is to investigate how commercial open source
   software affects the pricing (market share or profit) of proprietary

   Design/methodology: To analyze the impact of commercial open source
   software on proprietary software producer, this study constructs two
   vertical-differentiation models: the basic model considers proprietary
   software only competing with community open source software, and its
   extended one considers proprietary software competing with both
   community and commercial open source software.
   Findings: This study mainly finds that the presence of commercial open
   source software can lead to the decrease of the software price and
   profit for proprietary software producer, while the consumer surplus and
   social welfare will be increased. However, it does not necessarily cause
   the decline in the market share for proprietary software producer.
   Originality/value: The main contribution of this study is to examine the
   effect of commercial open source software on the competitive strategies

Journal = {ENVIRONMENTAL MODELLING \& SOFTWARE},
Year = {2012},
Volume = {32},
Pages = {49-60},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {The concentrations of many natural compounds are altered by chemical and
   biological transformations, and physical processes such as adsorption
   and transport. Their fate can be predicted using reactive transport
   models that describe reaction and advective and dispersive movement of
   these components in their natural environment.
   Recently a number of software packages have been implemented in the open
   source software R that allow one to implement reactive transport models.
   Central to this is the ReacTran R-package, a comprehensive collection of
   functions for modeling reactive components that may be distributed over
   multiple phases, whose dynamics are coupled through biological and
   geochemical reactions, and that are transported in one-, two- or
   three-dimensional domains with simple geometries. Dedicated solution
   methods are in R-packages deSolve and rootSolve.
   The modeling packages facilitate the simulation of reaction and
   transport of components for spatial scales ranging from micrometers to
   kilometers and spanning multiple time-scales. As they are influenced in
   similar ways, the same functions can solve biogeochemical models of the
   sediment, groundwater, rivers, estuaries, lakes or water columns,
   experimental setups, or even describe reaction and transport within
   flat, cylindrical or spherical bodies, such as organisms, aggregates, or
   the dispersion of individuals on flat surfaces and so on.
   We illustrate the use of R for reactive transport modeling by three
   applications spanning several orders of magnitude with respect to
   spatial and temporal scales. They comprise (1) a model of an
   experimental flow-through sediment reactor, where fitting so-called
   breakthrough curves are used to derive sulfate reduction rates in an
   estuarine sediment, (2) a conservative and reactive tracer addition
   experiment in a small stream, which implements the concept of river
   spiraling, and (3) a 2-D and 3-D model that describes oxygen dynamics in
   the upper layers of the sediment, interspersed with several hotspots of
   increased reaction intensities.
   The packages ReacTran, deSolve and rootSolve are implemented in the
   software R and thus available for all popular platforms (Linux, Windows,
   Mac). Models implemented using this software are short and easily
   readable, yet they are efficiently solved. This makes R extremely well
   suited for rapid model prototyping. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

Title = {The economy of free and open source software in the preservation of
   digital artefacts},
Journal = {LIBRARY HI TECH},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {28},

Pages = {211-223},
Abstract = {Purpose - Free and open source software (FOSS) brings many benefits to
   digital preservation; however it is not ``free{''}. If the context in
   which free and open source software tools are created and employed is
   examined, it becomes clear that: the sustainability of any software
   (FOSS, custom or commercial) to ensure the preservation of the digital
   heritage will depend on careful assessment of, and provision for, the
   costs (implicit and explicit) entailed in the production and continued
   employment of these tools. The purpose of this paper is to focus on FOSS
   and archiving of the digital heritage.
   Design/methodology/approach - Portico, a not-for-profit digital
   preservation service, explores the costs of FOSS based on its
   experiences as a working archive with an extremely long time horizon.
   Findings - There are considerable benefits to FOSS, including its
   openness and the broad-based testing of it in real-world situations.
   FOSS tools can provide considerable cost savings over proprietary tools.
   However, FOSS is neither free to use, nor to create, nor to maintain.
   Digital preservation organizations must inventory not only the FOSS
   tools in the preservation arsenal, but the network of sustaining tools
   (FOSS and otherwise), documentation, and ``tribal knowledge{''} that
   make these tools effectively usable. The risks to sustainability of this
   network of resources must be assessed, and determine what it will cost
   to keep them viable. Strategies will have to be considered and
   implemented for providing the means to sustain these resources. An
   engaged community of use is the best guarantor of the vitality of any
   FOSS tool. As that community wanes, it becomes even more essential to
   capture the significant properties and domain knowledge about that tool.
   Creators of new software in the digital preservation space have a
   particular obligation to provide and maintain information about the
   significant properties of that software.
   Originality/value - The paper shows how Portico brings its practical
   experiences integrating multiple FOSS tools to bear on an analysis of
   the costs to creating and maintaining these tools over the long-term.},

Abstract = {There has been considerable discussion on the possible impacts of open
   source software development practices, especially in regard to the
   quality of the resulting software product. Recent studies have shown
   that analyzing data from source code repositories is an efficient way to
   gather information about project characteristics and programmers,
   showing that OSS projects are very heterogeneous in their team
   structures and software processes. However, one problem is that the
   resulting process metrics measuring attributes of the development
   process and of the development environment do not give any hints about
   the quality, complexity, or structure of the resulting software.
   Therefore, we expanded the analysis by calculating several product
   metrics, most of them specifically tailored to object-oriented software.
   We then analyzed the relationship between these product metrics and
   process metrics derived from a CVS repository. The aim was to establish
   whether different variants of open source development processes have a
   significant impact on the resulting software products. In particular we
   analyzed the impact on quality and design associated with the numbers of
   contributors and the amount of their work, rising the GINI coefficient
   as a measure of inequality within the developer group.},

Abstract = {In this paper we apply the social network concept of core-periphery
   structure to the socio-technical structure of a software development
   team. We propose a socio-technical pattern that can be used to locate
   emerging coordination problems in Open Source projects. With the help of
   our tool and method called TESNA, we demonstrate a method to monitor the
   socio-technical core-periphery movement in Open Source projects. We then
   study the impact of different core-periphery movements on Open Source
   projects. We conclude that a steady core-periphery shift towards the
   core is beneficial to the project, whereas shifts away from the core are
   clearly not good. Furthermore, oscillatory shifts towards and away from
   the core can be considered as an indication of the instability of the
   project. Such an analysis can provide developers with a good insight
   into the health of an Open Source project. Researchers can gain from the
   pattern theory, and from the method we use to study the core-periphery
   movements. Journal of Information Technology (2010) 25, 216-229.

Volume = {51},
Number = {1},
Pages = {47-55},
Month = {JAN 6},
Abstract = {Purpose This study aims to explore the present status of open-source
   institutional repository (IR) software's usage in the university
   libraries of Islamabad. This study also investigates the views,
   satisfaction level and challenges of librarians in the adoption and use
   of IR software. Design/methodology/approach A survey was conducted to
   collect data from the Library Information Science (LIS) professionals
   working in the university libraries of Islamabad. Data were collected
   from all library professionals of the Islamabad university libraries by
   using a structured questionnaire. Out of the total 104 LIS
   professionals, 84 participated in the study with a response ratio of
   80.76\%. Findings The findings disclose that out of 23 universities
   recognized by Higher Education Commission (HEC) in Islamabad, 17 (public
   and private) have developed IRs. Currently, university libraries that
   have fully implemented the IRs are less as compared with those
   universities that have partially implemented IR software. However, a
   good number of university libraries are in the process to develop IRs.
   Free and open-source software is being used mostly in libraries as
   compared with in-house developed, locally developed or commercial
   software. The opinion of librarians about using IR software expressed a
   positive attitude of librarians. Some of the major challenges
   encountered by the librarians in using open-source IR software include
   selection of suitable software and materials for digitization, lack of
   cooperation from the parent organization, inadequate training
   opportunities and lack of skilled staff. Research
   limitations/implications This study is geographically limited to the
   university libraries in Islamabad. Practical implications This study
   will encourage the Pakistani LIS professionals to use open-source
   software for the development of IRs in their libraries.
   Originality/value This study concludes that the development of IRs in
   university libraries is a need of the hour. Although the launching of
   IRs requires certain skills and competencies, Pakistani librarians can
   overcome these challenges by mastering the ICT skills.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2012},
Volume = {85},
Number = {4},

Month = {APR},
Abstract = {This study critically investigates the main characteristics and features
   of anti-filtering packages provided by Free and Open Source Software
   (FOSS). For over a decade, the digital communities around the globe have
   used FOSS packages not only as an inexpensive way to access to
   information available on Internet, but also to disseminate thoughts,
   opinions and concerns about various socio-political and economic
   matters. Proxy servers and FOSS played a vital role in helping citizens
   in repressed countries to bypass the state imposed Internet content
   filtering and censorship practices. On the one hand, proxy servers act
   as redirectors to websites, and on the other hand, many of these servers
   are the main source for downloading FOSS anti-filtering software
   packages. These packages can provide secure web surfing via anonymous
   web access, data encryption. IP address masking, location concealment,
   browser history and cookie clean-ups but they also provide proxy
   software updates as well as domain name updates.
   The main objectives of this study are to investigate the role of FOSS
   packages in combating Internet content filtering and censorship and
   empowering citizens to effectively participate in communication
   discourse. By evaluating some of the well known FOSS anti-filtering
   packages used by Iran's digital community, this study found that despite
   the success of FOSS in combating filtering and state censorship, the
   majority of these software packages were not designed to meet the needs
   of Internet users. In particular, they are poorly adapted to the slow
   Internet connections in many developing countries such as Iran. In
   addition, these software packages do not meet the level of
   sophistication used by authorities to filter the content of the Net.
   Therefore, this study offers a new model that takes into account not
   only the existing level of the Internet infrastructure but also the
   growing number of Internet users demanding more effective FOSS packages
   for faster access to uncensored information while maintaining anonymity.

Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {11},
Pages = {63333-63350},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) has achieved popularity, however there are
   various software product quality problems, security issues and certain
   challenges confronting the OSS growth that need to be identified and
   addressed. The main focus of this research is to identify the risk
   factors associated with open-source software and the practices for those
   risks which will help software development companies and individuals to
   mitigate the risks. A systematic literature review (SLR) is employed for
   the identification of potential risk factors in OSS whereas
   questionnaire survey is used to validate the findings of the SLR from
   the relevant expert community. In the second round another SLR is
   carried out to identify the practices for softening the effect of
   risk-factors in OSS development. A total of 14 risk factors from the
   developers' perspective are identified via SLR in OSS. Amid the risk
   factors identified bugs, insufficient product documentation, and lack of
   communication and coordination among developers are considered the most
   important Further, we performed a secondary SLR to identify the
   practices for mitigating the effects of the risk factors in OSS.
   Therefore, a total of 31 practices for mitigating and addressing the
   risk factors in OSS were identified. In this work, we identified 14 risk
   factors and 31 practices for mitigating the critical risk factors,
   through SLR for adapting OSS development from developers' perspectives.
   We argue that focusing on the identified risk factors would minimize the
   risks associated with OSS. We also recommend that OSS developers should
   diligently consider all the risk factors that have been identified in
   the study for increased software productivity and distribution of
   reliable and robust source code.},

Abstract = {``Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM,{''} was a widely used cliche in
   the 1970s in the corporate IT (information technology) world. Since
   then, the traditional process of purchasing software has dramatically
   changed, challenged by the advent of open source software (OSS). Since
   its inception in the 1980s, OSS has matured, grown, and become one of
   the important driving forces of the enterprise ecosystem. However, it
   has also brought important IT security risks that are impacting the OSS
   IT adoption decision-making process. The recent Heartbleed bug
   demonstrated the grandeur of the issue. While much of the noise relates
   to the amplification of perceived risks by the popular mass media
   coverage, the effect is that many enterprises, mainly for risk reasons,
   have still chosen not to adopt OSS. We investigated ``how do information
   security related characteristics of OSS affect the risk perception and
   adoption decision of OSS{''} by conducting an online survey of 188 IT
   decision-makers. The proposed Open Source Risk Adoption Model offers
   novel insights on the importance of the perceived risk antecedents. Our
   research brings new theoretical contributions, such as understanding the
   perceived IT security risk (PISR) relationship with adoption intention
   (AI) in the OSS context, for researchers and important insights for IT
   information professionals. We have found that IT security risk has a
   significant role in OSS adoption intention. Our results offer possible
   future research directions and extend existing theoretical understanding
   of OSS adoption.},

Abstract = {Tissue engineering represents a new field aiming at developing
   biological substitutes to restore, maintain, or improve tissue
   functions. In this approach, scaffolds provide a temporary mechanical
   and vascular support for tissue regeneration while tissue in-growth is
   being formed. The design of optimized scaffolds for tissue engineering
   is a key topic of research, as the complex macro-and micro-architectures
   required for a scaffold depends on the mechanical properties, and the
   physical and molecular stimulations of the surrounding tissue at the
   defect site. One way to achieve such designs is to create a library of
   unit cells ( the scaffold is assumed to be a repeating, tessellating
   unit structure), which can be assembled through specific computational
   tools proposed by several authors. In this research work, an open source
   software tool for the design of scaffolds is presented. (C) 2014 The

Abstract = {Computational research and data analytics increasingly relies on complex
   ecosystems of open source software (OSS) ``libraries{''} - curated
   collections of reusable code that programmers import to perform a
   specific task. Software documentation for these libraries is crucial in
   helping programmers/analysts know what libraries are available and how
   to use them. Yet documentation for open source software libraries is
   widely considered low-quality. This article is a collaboration between
   CSCW researchers and contributors to data analytics OSS libraries, based
   on ethnographic fieldwork and qualitative interviews. We examine several
   issues around the formats, practices, and challenges around
   documentation in these largely volunteer-based projects. There are many
   different kinds and formats of documentation that exist around such
   libraries, which play a variety of educational, promotional, and
   organizational roles. The work behind documentation is similarly
   multifaceted, including writing, reviewing, maintaining, and organizing
   documentation. Different aspects of documentation work require
   contributors to have different sets of skills and overcome various
   social and technical barriers. Finally, most of our interviewees do not
   report high levels of intrinsic enjoyment for doing documentation work
   (compared to writing code). Their motivation is affected by personal and
   project-specific factors, such as the perceived level of credit for
   doing documentation work versus more `technical' tasks like adding new
   features or fixing bugs. In studying documentation work for data
   analytics OSS libraries, we gain a new window into the changing
   practices of data-intensive research, as well as help practitioners
   better understand how to support this often invisible and
   infrastructural work in their projects.},

   open-source (FLOSS) developers, especially those involved in

   Respondents to an extensive web-survey's (FLOSS-US 2003) questions about
   their reasons for beginning to work FLOSS are classified according to
   their distinct ``motivational profiles{''} by hierarchical cluster
   analysis. Over half of them also are matched to projects of known
   membership sizes, revealing that although some members from each of the
   clusters are present in the small, medium and large ranges of the
   distribution of project sizes, the mixing fractions for the large and
   the very small project ranges are statistically different. Among
   developers who changed projects, there is a discernable flow from the
   bottom toward the very small towards to large projects. some of which is
   motivated by individuals seeking to improve their programming skills. It
   is found that the profile of early motivation, along with other
   individual attributes, significantly affects individual developers'
   selections of projects from different regions of the size range. (C)

Abstract = {Autonomous unmanned vehicles can perform detailed surveys of planetary
   surfaces but it is imperative to establish a method for global
   localization to effectively explore these areas. The absence of GPS in
   extraplanetary environments prevents surface vehicles from knowing their
   exact location, which raises the need for an alternative positioning
   system. Traditional methods, such as visual odometry cross-referenced
   with digital elevation maps, are limited by their dependence on human
   input and pre-existing space infrastructure. This paper outlines and
   characterizes a global position determination algorithm intended for
   planetary surface vehicles in GPS-denied environments without any prior
   knowledge. The localization algorithm receives images of the stars from
   a visible camera and tilt measurements from an inclinometer, derives
   star locations and a gravity vector, and combines these signals to
   generate an onboard position determinant. This paper contributes (i) the
   first open-source planetary global localization algorithm based on
   stars, (ii) a sensor suite design derived of solely
   commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) components, and (iii) an unprecedented
   physical experiment and characterization from this algorithm on Earth's
   surface. The resulting position determinant is on average 100km from the
   testing location, consistent across various time and surface inclines.
   This result is compared to theoretical performance, state-of-the-art
   sensor performance, and other global localization methods. This achieved
   determinant error offers a starting point toward localization
   improvement with more capable sensors and the incorporation of multiple
   historical determinants for state estimation.},

   focus on differences in RE activity in OSS. RE is characterized as a
   socio-technical distributed cognitive (DCog) activity where multiple
   actors deploy artifacts to `compute' requirements. To uncover how OSS
   projects configure the socio-technical distribution of cognitive
   processes to respond to varying attributes of incoming requirements we
   conduct a comparative analysis of four successful OSS projects. We
   observe that the volume of requirements faced by an OSS group dictates
   largely the nature of its social formation while the volatility
   experienced in the requirements dictates the overlap the project
   exhibits with the larger external community. Finally the velocity of
   change in technological requirements influence the project's
   documentation practices of requirements with the level of design
   consistency desired in the end product influencing the decision-making
   channels used in the development endeavor.},

Title = {The impacts of lockdown on open source software contributions during the
   COVID-19 pandemic},
Journal = {RESEARCH POLICY},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {52},
Number = {10},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {The COVID-19 pandemic instigated widespread lockdowns, compelling
   millions to transition to work-from-home (WFH) arrangements and rely
   heavily on computer-mediated communications (CMC) for collaboration.
   This study examines the impacts of lockdown on innovation-driven work
   productivity, focusing on contributions to open source software (OSS)
   projects on GitHub, the world's largest OSS platform. By leveraging two
   lockdowns in China as natural experiments, we discover that developers
   in the 2021 Xi'an lockdown increased OSS contributions by 9.0 \%, while
   those in the 2020 Wuhan lockdown reduced their contributions by 10.5 \%.
   A subsequent survey study elucidates this divergence, uncovering an
   adaptation effect wherein Xi'an developers became more accustomed to the
   new norm of WFH over time, capitalizing on the flexibility and
   opportunities of remote work. Moreover, our findings across both
   lockdowns reveal that the lack of face-to-face (F2F) interactions
   significantly impeded OSS contributions, whereas the increased available
   time at home positively influenced them. This finding is especially
   noteworthy as it challenges the assumption that CMC can effortlessly
   substitute for F2F interactions without negatively affecting
   productivity. We further examine the impacts of stay-at-home orders in
   the United States (US) on OSS contributions and find no significant
   effects. Collectively, our research offers valuable insights into the
   multifaceted impacts of lockdown on productivity, shedding light on how
   individuals adapt to remote work norms during protracted disruptions
   like a pandemic. These insights provide various stakeholders, including
   individuals, organizations, and policymakers, with vital knowledge to
   prepare for future disruptions, foster sustainable resilience, and
   adeptly navigate the evolving landscape of remote work in a postpandemic

Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Protected agriculture has emerged as a key solution to address the
   pressing issue of food scarcity. To enhance crop yield, environmental
   regulation techniques have been widely employed in protected production.
   However, the absence of user-friendly, data-driven tools for developing
   regulation models remains a challenge. This study aims to propose IPECM,
   an independent and user-friendly software platform for processing and
   analyzing crop photosynthetic rate (Pn) data and formulating
   environmental regulation targets. The platform provides functionalities,
   such as Pn prediction model development, environmental regulation model
   development and result visualization, supporting various machine
   learning algorithms and regulation target obtaining algorithms. The
   IPECM Platform's application is demonstrated through examples of light
   intensity regulation for cucumber growth and CO2 concentration
   regulation for tomato growth. The results showcase the software's
   ability to handle photosynthetic data of any dimension, with the
   established Pn prediction model achieving a coefficient of determination
   of 0.98 and a root mean square error lower than 1 mu mol center dot
   m(-2)center dot s (-1). The established regulation models can achieve
   maximum Pn or optimal energy utilization efficiency according to user
   requirements. IPECM Platform is an independent, automated, and
   open-source software for protected environmental regulation modeling,
   providing both the modeling process and results visualization. It offers
   valuable services for protected agriculture research, eliminating the
   need for programming knowledge.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is a new paradigm to develop software by
   community, in which groups of developer collaborating each other. The
   method becomes very popular because the products of OSS projects, such
   as source code, documents, results of tests, are published by
   open-license. One of noticeable features of OSS is openness of project.
   Anyone can access the products of OSS projects. It is expected that the
   quality of products could be higher than those developed by conventional
   methods, as more people access OSS products and the chance to find
   defect could be larger. However, there are no established methods for
   the evaluation of OSS, neither actual terms of the evaluation of OSS. We
   propose an evaluation method, which is based on the maturity model of
   OSS development community. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier

Abstract = {Improved performance of database systems has enabled faster SQL querying
   and more complex data processing. However, as the data becomes more
   complex and larger, SQL data processing becomes more difficult and
   costly. Typical problems include changing SQL queries and data schema
   resolution in complex dependencies by hand. In addition, human errors
   can lead to complex cyclic dependency problems. To mitigate these
   problems, we developed AlphaSQL: an open-source software tool for SQL
   data processing. AlphaSQL mainly supports three techniques to automate
   data preparation by SQL: (1) extracting a directed acyclic graph (DAG)
   based on dependencies between SQL and data, (2) validating the schema
   included in the whole DAG, and (3) parallelizing the queries based on
   the DAG.
   We applied AlphaSQL to a real-world data analysis and machine learning
   project where we analyzed 1445 logs obtained from static validation for
   git commits and 3243 execution logs. Our analysis showed that AlphaSQL
   detected various errors with high precision and recall, part of which
   existing tools could not catch (e.g., missing resources and schema
   mismatches). AlphaSQL would enable more maintainable data management
   using SQL.},

Abstract = {The development and training of deep learning models have become
   increasingly costly and complex. Consequently, software engineers are
   adopting pre-trained models (PTMs) for their downstream applications.
   The dynamics of the PTM supply chain remain largely unexplored,
   signaling a clear need for structured datasets that document not only
   the metadata but also the subsequent applications of these models.
   Without such data, the MSR community cannot comprehensively understand
   the impact of PTM adoption and reuse.
   This paper presents the PeaTMOSS dataset, which comprises metadata for
   281,638 PTMs and detailed snapshots for all PTMs with over 50 monthly
   downloads (14,296 PTMs), along with 28,575 open-source software
   repositories from GitHub that utilize these models. Additionally, the
   dataset includes 44,337 mappings from 15,129 downstream GitHub
   repositories to the 2,530 PTMs they use. To enhance the dataset's
   comprehensiveness, we developed prompts for a large language model to
   automatically extract model metadata, including the model's training
   datasets, parameters, and evaluation metrics. Our analysis of this
   dataset provides the first summary statistics for the PTM supply chain,
   showing the trend of PTM development and common shortcomings of PTM
   package documentation. Our example application reveals inconsistencies
   in software licenses across PTMs and their dependent projects. PeaTMOSS
   lays the foundation for future research, offering rich opportunities to
   investigate the PTM supply chain. We outline mining opportunities on
   PTMs, their downstream usage, and crosscutting questions. Our artifact

   quantifying the Galileo contribution is one of the main objectives. The
   open source software RTKLib is adopted to process the data, with precise
   satellite orbits and clocks from CNES (Centre National d'Etudes

   for International GNSS Service (IGS). The Iono-free model is used to
   correct ionospheric errors, the GOT-4.7 model is used to correct tidal
   effects, and Differential Code Biases (DCB) are taken from the Deutsche
   Forschungsanstalt fur Luftund Raumfahrt (DLR) center. Two different
   tropospheric models are tested: Saastamoinen and Estimate ZTD (Zenith
   Troposhperic Delay). For the proposed study, a dataset of 31 days from a
   permanent GNSS station, placed in Palermo (Italy), and a dataset of 10
   days from a static geodetic receiver, placed nearby the station, have
   been collected and processed by the most used open source software in
   the geomatic community. The considered GNSS configurations are seven:
   GPS only, GLONASS only, Galileo only, GPS+GLONASS, GPS+Galileo,
   GLONASS+Galileo, and GPS+GLONASS+Galileo. The results show significant
   performance improvement of the GNSS combinations with respect to single

Abstract = {An empirical study is presented that examines the potential to
   parallelize general-purpose software systems. The study is conducted on
   13 open source systems comprising over 14 MLOC. Each for-loop is
   statically analyzed to determine if it can be parallelized or not. A
   for-loop that can be parallelized is termed a free-loop. Free-loops can
   be easily parallelized using tools such as OpenMP. For the loops that
   cannot be parallelized, the various inhibitors to parallelization are
   determined and tabulated. The data shows that the most prevalent
   inhibitor by far, is functions called within for-loops that have side
   effects. This single inhibitor poses the greatest challenge in adapting
   and re-engineering systems to better utilize modern multi-core
   architectures. This fact is somewhat contradictory to the literature,
   which is primarily focused on the removal of data dependencies within
   loops. Results of this paper also show that function calls via function
   pointers and virtual methods have very little impact on the for-loop
   parallelization process. Historical data over a 10-year period of
   inhibitor counts for the set of systems studied is also presented. It
   shows that there is little change in the potential for parallelization
   of loops over time.},

   according to the workflow metaphor as well as a number of mechanisms
   that help managing the complexity of the distribution both in terms of

   gather critical information on the opportunity of approaching OS as a
   strategic mean toward the development of always more important
   application in Operating Support System for TI, possibly also involving
   other great Telco Players For this reason great care is being paid in
   setting up the Community environment and in deciding which metrics are
   to be extracted from it, since the result will be the input for a
   strategic decision in TI.},

Abstract = {Knowledge is an obtainable, renewable, dynamic, context-dependent
   resource that is capable of providing competitive advantage in
   organizations. Knowledge can be shared, and the knowledge sharing cycle
   has two processes: knowledge donation, when a person voluntarily offers
   his intellectual capital to others, and knowledge collection, when a
   person consults other people's intellectual capital. Knowledge sharing
   is important for, among other reasons, improving organizational
   learning, innovative capacity, organizational success and productivity.
   Knowledge can be shared among individuals, groups and organizations. One
   kind of group organized to share knowledge is the community of practice,
   where people have mutual relationships involving a regular flow of
   knowledge between them, which facilitates the generation of new
   knowledge. A free software community is a type of community of practice
   arranged around a specific free software. The knowledge shared in free
   software communities is complex and the knowledge sharing processes have
   scarcely been studied in this environment. This investigation aims to
   identify the profiles of knowledge sharing processes in free software
   communities i.e., whether members of free software communities collect
   more, donate more or collect and donate equally. To accomplish this
   objective, a survey method was adopted, with 260 respondents belonging
   to free software communities. Cluster analysis was used to interpret the
   data. Four clusters, corresponding to the sharing profiles of the
   respondents, were identified: Sporadic Sharer (low donation and low
   collection); Collector (low donation and high collection); Donator (high
   donation and low collection); and Constant Sharer (high donation and
   high collection). The k-means algorithm showed four well-defined
   clusters. Interestingly, with the exception of the Sporadic Sharer, all
   the clusters presented high values of both collection and donation,
   including the Donators (that emphasize donation) and Collectors (that
   emphasize collection). These results confirm the view of free software
   communities as communities of practice that are organized to share
   knowledge, and highlight the importance of knowledge sharing and
   collaboration in the free software development cycle. Furthermore, the
   results show that the Constant Sharer (that both collects and donates
   intensely) is the profile that donates and collects more, even more than
   Donators and Collectors, indicating that this profile is key to the
   correct functioning of the community.},

Abstract = {Background: The National Cancer Institute Informatics Technology for
   Cancer Research (ITCR) program provides a series of funding mechanisms
   to create an ecosystem of open-source software (OSS) that serves the
   needs of cancer research. As the ITCR ecosystem substantially grows, it
   faces the challenge of the long-term sustainability of the software
   being developed by ITCR grantees. To address this challenge, the ITCR
   sustainability and industry partnership working group (SIP-WG) was
   convened in 2019.
   Objective: The charter of the SIP-WG is to investigate options to
   enhance the long-term sustainability of the OSS being developed by ITCR,
   in part by developing a collection of business model archetypes that can
   serve as sustainability plans for ITCR OSS development initiatives. The
   working group assembled models from the ITCR program, from other
   studies, and from the engagement of its extensive network of
   relationships with other organizations (eg, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative,
   Open Source Initiative, and Software Sustainability Institute) in
   support of this objective.
   Methods: This paper reviews the existing sustainability models and
   describes 10 OSS use cases disseminated by the SIP-WG and others,
   including 3D Slicer, Bioconductor, Cytoscape, Globus, i2b2 (Informatics
   for Integrating Biology and the Bedside) and tranSMART, Insight Toolkit,
   Linux, Observational Health Data Sciences and Informatics tools, R, and
   REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture), in 10 sustainability aspects:
   governance, documentation, code quality, support, ecosystem
   collaboration, security, legal, finance, marketing, and dependency
   hygiene.
   Results: Information available to the public reveals that all 10 OSS
   have effective governance, comprehensive documentation, high code
   quality, reliable dependency hygiene, strong user and developer support,
   and active marketing. These OSS include a variety of licensing models
   (eg, general public license version 2, general public license version 3,
   Berkeley Software Distribution, and Apache 3) and financial models (eg,
   federal research funding, industry and membership support, and
   commercial support). However, detailed information on ecosystem
   collaboration and security is not publicly provided by most OSS.
   Conclusions: We recommend 6 essential attributes for research software:
   alignment with unmet scientific needs, a dedicated development team, a
   vibrant user community, a feasible licensing model, a sustainable
   financial model, and effective product management. We also stress
   important actions to be considered in future ITCR activities that
   involve the discussion of the sustainability and licensing models for
   ITCR OSS, the establishment of a central library, the allocation of
   consulting resources to code quality control, ecosystem collaboration,
   security, and dependency hygiene.},

Title = {Environmental Desire in: <i>The Mill on the Floss</i>},
Journal = {NINETEENTH-CENTURY LITERATURE},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {76},
Number = {2},
Pages = {192-222},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {This essay argues that George Eliot's expansive use of landscape
   description in The Mill on the Floss (1860) represents an engagement
   with the emerging concept of a biological ``medium{''} or
   ``environment{''} in the nineteenth-century sciences. In the 1850s,
   scientific writers including Auguste Comte, Herbert Spencer, and G. H.
   Lewes redefined biological life as dependent on an abstraction called a
   ``medium{''} or ``environment{''}- a term that united all the objects,
   substances, and forces in an organism's physical surroundings into a
   singular entity. Eliot in The Mill on the Floss draws out the ecological
   potential of this new biological concept by imbuing the described
   backgrounds of her novel with a lyrical affect I call ``environmental
   desire,{''} a diffuse longing for ambient contact with one's formative
   medium that offers an ethical alternative to the possessive and
   object-driven forms of desire that drive the plot of a traditional
   Bildungsroman. Maggie Tulliver's marriage plot is structured by a
   tension between environmental desire and possessive desire, in which her
   erotic desire for Stephen Guest competes with a more diffuse
   environmental desire that attaches to the novel's described backgrounds.
   Ultimately, the new environment concept enables Eliot to reconceive the

Title = {Code comment generation based on graph neural network enhanced
   transformer model for code understanding in open-source software
   ecosystems},
Journal = {AUTOMATED SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},

Abstract = {In open-source software ecosystems, the scale of source code is getting
   larger and larger, and developers often use various methods (good code
   comments or method names, etc.) to make the code easier to read and
   understand. However, high-quality code comments or method names are
   often unavailable due to tight project schedules or other reasons in
   open-source software ecosystems such as Github. Therefore, in this work,
   we try to use deep learning models to generate appropriate code comments
   or method names to help software development and maintenance, which
   requires a non-trivial understanding of the code. Therefore, we propose
   a Graph neural network enhanced Transformer model (GTrans for short) to
   learn code representation to understand code better. Specifically,
   GTrans learns code representation from code sequences and graphs. We use
   a Transformer encoder to capture the global representation from code
   sequence and a graph neural network (GNN) encoder to focus on the local
   details in the code graph, and then use a decoder to combine both global
   and local representations by attention mechanism. We use three public
   datasets collected from GitHub to evaluate our model. In an extensive
   evaluation, we show that GTrans outperforms the state-of-the-art models
   up to 3.8\% increase in METEOR metrics on code comment generation and
   outperforms the state-of-the-art models by margins of 5.8\%-9.4\% in
   ROUGE metrics on method name generation after some adjustments on the
   structure. Empirically, we find the method name generation task depends
   on more local information than global, and the code comment generation
   task is in contrast. Our data and code are available at
   https://github.com/zc-work/GTrans.},

   Status, problems and measures used in libraries of Beijing, China},
Journal = {GLOBAL KNOWLEDGE MEMORY AND COMMUNICATION},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {67},
Number = {3},
Pages = {180-192},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to explore the professional
   opinion of LIS with reference to open source software (OSS) adoption,
   status, problems and future measures in research and academic libraries
   of Beijing, China.
   Design/methodology/approach - Data were collected using a structured
   questionnaire, and semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted
   among 20 academic and 20 research libraries in Beijing, China. The
   convenient sampling technique was used to collect data. The data
   collected were interpreted using descriptive statistics and independent
   t-test.
   Findings - The results reveal that Chinese research and academics
   libraries depend mostly upon commercial software and place a great deal
   of trust on locally produced free software. This situation may be caused
   due to the lack of professional knowledge in OSS and lack of appropriate
   technical expertise. Although there were a sufficient number of
   librarians who have shown interest in OSS, they did not enthusiastically
   agree to implement it in their libraries. Furthermore, the interviews
   highlighted the professionals' opinion that most librarians are
   reluctant to adopt OSS due to the risk factor, lack of professional
   expertise, insufficient interest of the Chinese Government and lack of
   professional training.
   Originality/value - The findings are useful for the Chinese LIS
   community, software developers, technology administrators and library
   administrators. In particular, it is beneficial for research and
   academic libraries of China to adapt OSS for library management and
   provide better library services and sources to their library users.},

   large-scale software systems. The topic of bugs has been extensively
   investigated and reported in the literature. Unfortunately, the
   existential question of all ``whether a reported bug will be fixed or
   not{''} has not received much attention. The paper presents an empirical
   study on four open source projects to examine the factors that influence
   the likelihood of a bug getting fixed or not. Overall, our study can be
   contextualized as a conceptual replication of a previous study on
   Microsoft systems from a commercial domain. The similarities and
   differences in terms of the design, execution, and results between the
   two studies are discussed. It was observed from these systems that the
   reputations of the reporter and assigned developer to fix it, and the
   number of comments on a bug have the most substantial impact on its
   probability to get fixed. Moreover, we formulated a predictive model
   from features available as soon as a bug is reported to estimate whether
   it will be fixed or not. Intra and inter (cross) project validations
   were performed. Precision and Recall metrics were used to assess the
   predictive model. Their values were recorded in the 60\% to 70\% range.},

Abstract = {Software supply chain security has now become a critical concern in the
   software industry (and beyond) following the large impact of recent
   attacks: hackers injected malicious code into Solarwinds components and
   Octopus scanner, which eventually infected a wide range of downstream
   dependencies, affecting a massive number of users. Since supply chain
   vulnerabilities are a well-known concern, especially with open source
   systems, approaches in the literature mainly focus on identifying and
   patching such vulnerability. Frequently, however, a vulnerability patch
   is not immediately propagated to earlier releases that have been
   inherited by dependents, leaving residual vulnerabilities in supply
   chains. Our work addresses this challenge and develops a simple approach
   to iteratively explore the attack surface of supply chain residual
   vulnerabilities in open source projects. We have assessed our search
   scheme on 50 GitHub-hosted projects having high stars and forks: we mine
   their bug fix commits and identify buggy package versions to track the
   affected dependents and estimate the potential attack surface. We find
   that many projects fix their vulnerable issues by update their
   dependency versions, and version inheritance is a significant cause of
   supply chain attacks for open source projects.},

Abstract = {Reporting bugs, asking for new features and in general giving any kind
   of feedback is a common way to contribute to an Open-Source Software
   (OSS) project. This feedback is generally reported in the form of new
   issues for the project, managed by the so-called issue-trackers. One of
   the features provided by most issue-trackers is the possibility to
   define a set of labels/tags to classify the issues and, at least in
   theory, facilitate their management. Nevertheless, there is little
   empirical evidence to confirm that taking the time to categorize new
   issues has indeed a beneficial impact on the project evolution. In this
   paper we analyze a population of more than three million of GitHub
   projects and give some insights on how labels are used in them. Our
   preliminary results reveal that, even if the label mechanism is scarcely
   used, using labels favors the resolution of issues. Our analysis also
   suggests that not all projects use labels in the same way (e.g., for
   some labels are only a way to prioritize the project while others use
   them to signal their temporal evolution as they move along in the
   development workflow). Further research is needed to precisely
   characterize these label ``families{''} and learn more the ideal
   application scenarios for each of them.},

Abstract = {Micro-CT analysis has become the standard method for assessing bone
   volume and architecture in small animals. However, micro-CT does not
   allow the assessment of bone turnover parameters such as bone formation
   rate and osteoclast (OC) number and surface. For these crucial variables
   histomorphometric analysis is still an essential technique.
   Histomorphometry however, is time consuming and, especially in mouse
   bones, OCs can be difficult to detect. The main purpose of this study
   was to develop and validate a relatively easy and rapid method to
   measure static and dynamic bone histomorphometry parameters. Here we
   present the adaptation of established staining protocols and three novel
   open source image analysis packages: TrapHisto, OsteoidHisto and
   CalceinHisto that allow rapid, semi-automated analysis of
   histomorphometric bone resorption, osteoid, and calcein double labelling
   parameters respectively. These three programs are based on ImageJ, but
   use a relatively simple user interface that hides the underlying

Abstract = {Software maintenance phase of Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) is
   the most expensive and complex phase that requires nearly 60-70\% of the
   total project cost. Due to this, many software fails to get repair
   within real time constraint. Ascribe to technology advancements and
   changing requirements, software must be well developed and maintained to
   get adapted. Hence, it is necessary to predict software maintainability
   in the early phases of the lifecycle so that optimization of resources
   can be possible and cost can be reduced. Software Maintainability is the
   quality attribute of software product that explains the ease with which
   modifications can be performed. The main focus in this study is to
   propose the use of Gene Expression Programming (GEP) for the software
   maintainability prediction and measure its performance with various
   machine leaning techniques such as Decision Tree Forest, Support Vector
   Machine, Linear regression, Multilayer Perceptron and Radial basis
   function neural network. The empirical study is conducted with the help
   of four open source datasets. Eleven bad smells are identified and is
   considered as maintenance effort. Results of this study show that GEP
   algorithm performs better than machine learning classifiers; hence it
   can be used as sound alternative in the prediction of software
   maintainability. This study would be helpful in achieving better
   resource allocation hence it will be useful for developers and
   maintainers.},

Abstract = {When referring to Open Source Software (OSS) components, researchers,
   coders and managers do not feel comfortable in defining them as COTS.
   Many discussions have been aimed to decide whether or not OSS can be
   considered a COTS without reaching the unanimous consensus of the
   different international communities. This paper abandons any theoretical
   aspect of that question and focuses on the practical steps to follow
   when assembling component-based systems using also OSS components. All
   the activities normally performed when integrating COTS in a in-house
   built software are reviewed with the intention of underlining if the
   availability of the source code (and its possible exploitation) makes
   any difference. Moreover this article analyzes all the activities to
   perform when using OSS in a component-based system that are not
   necessary when using COTS. The purpose of this paper is to provide a
   guideline for the correct use of OSS within component-based systems, and
   not to answer whether OSS are considered or not COTS, leaving this task
   to the reader.},

   commitment of OSS developers to quality is also explored. A
   comprehensive web-based questionnaire was completed by OSS and
   traditional developers. It was found that peer review is generally
   considered very useful for detecting both defects and flaws in code, as
   well as being important in contributing to the quality of the software.
   It is suggested that OSS developers commit to quality through
   internalization - adopting the ideas as their own, as the majority of
   the developers indicated that they would perform peer reviews without
   management direction. Encouragement to perform peer reviews and an
   organizational culture of peer review make it more likely for the
   developers to perform peer review under their own initiative, but
   neither are essential.},

   and (3) water resources optimization. The web application is developed
   using several programming languages (PhP, Ajax, JavaScript, Java),
   libraries (OpenLayers, JQuery) and open source software components
   (GeoServer, PostgreSQL, PostGIS). The presented web application has
   several main advantages: it is available all the time, it is accessible
   from everywhere, it creates a real time multi-user collaboration
   platform, the programing languages code and components are interoperable
   and designed to work in a distributed computer environment, it is
   flexible for adding additional components and services and, it is
   scalable depending on the workload. The application was successfully
   tested on a case study with concurrent multi-users access. (C) 2013

Pages = {685-707},
Month = {JUN 29},
Abstract = {Purpose The purpose of the paper is to propose a semantic model for
   describing open source software (OSS) in a machine-human understandable
   format. The model is extracted to support source code reusing and
   revising as the two primary targets of OSS through a systematic review
   of related documents. Design/methodology/approach Conducting a
   systematic review, all the software reusing criteria are identified and
   introduced to the web of data by an ontology for OSS (O4OSS). The
   software semantic model introduced in this paper explores OSS through
   triple expressions in which the O4OSS properties are predicates.
   Findings This model improves the quality of web data by describing
   software in a structured machine-human readable profile, which is linked
   to the related data that was previously published on the web. Evaluating
   the OSS semantic model is accomplished through comparing it with
   previous approaches, comparing the software structured metadata with
   profile index of software in some well-known repositories, calculating
   the software retrieval rank and surveying domain experts.
   Originality/value Considering context-specific information and authority
   levels, the proposed software model would be applicable to any open and
   close software. Using this model to publish software provides an
   infrastructure of connected meaningful data and helps developers
   overcome some specific challenges. By navigating software data, many
   questions which can be answered only through reading multiple documents
   can be automatically responded on the web of data.},

Abstract = {Code reuse is fundamental to the development of open-source software
   (OSS). Therefore, understanding how and why it occurs is important. To
   date, researchers have examined code reuse in OSS largely from the
   perspective of leaders. We show why followers must be considered as
   well. ``Followers{''} are people who have had previous contacts with an
   individual from another project and who continue to associate with him
   or her. We consider two types of followers: developers (those directly
   involved in software development) and observers (those indirectly
   involved in it). We conduct a series of empirical investigations by
   using a longitudinal dataset of OSS projects hosted in GitHub, along
   with a survey and qualitative data. We find that followership can affect
   code reuse, but the effect depends on the nature of the follower
   (developer or observer). Overall, our study suggests that followership
   is important for code reuse in OSS because it enables participants to
   learn, and learning promotes code reuse.},

Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to address the following
   questions: How are members of the Tennessee's regional library system
   (TRLS) in the USA using open source software (OSS) applications and
   collaborating to further their missions and overcome some of their
   debilitating information-related circumstances? What kind of
   partnerships can be explored in order to further use of OSS in the
   state?
   Design/methodology/approach - The paper highlights findings from an
   exploratory website study to identify key trends, practices, and
   applications of use of OSS in the TRLS.
   Findings - OSS applications in the TRLS are presented in terms of their
   current use as well as their future directions of development and
   opportunities. Study of collaborations in OSS use and website
   development by public libraries in the TRLS reveals that the OSS
   infoscape is more complex than previously understood.
   Originality/value - Minimal research has been done involving the TRLS
   that has been in existence for over 60 years and comprises 12
   multi-county regions serving 211 small-and medium-sized public
   libraries. Use of OSS has tremendous potentialities to overcome the
   harsh conditions of information poverty, lack of information resources
   and technology, and unique cultural, social, economic, and environmental
   challenges experienced in Tennessee that have prevented significant
   growth of information and communications technologies in the state.},

Abstract = {One of open-source software (OSS) is that it can be used for a long term
   by repeating version-up iteratively in the operational phase, so that
   OSS possesses a different software bug detection and correction profiles

   software bug fixing process of OSS can be considered to show effects of
   the long-term operation and/or periodicity due to the multiple
   version-up procedures, in addition to the common reliability growth
   phenomenon observed in the relatively short-term software testing. In
   this article we propose a stochastic point process approach to represent
   the long-term effect and the periodicity effect of OSS with the actual
   OSS bug fixing data. By conducting the reliability analysis of OSS, it
   is possible to assess the operational reliability of OSS quantitatively
   and to share the published quality indicators of OSS by the whole OSS
   community.},

Abstract = {Software reliability growth model (SRGM) is used as one of the
   reliability assessment methods to assess the software reliability. In
   SRGM, the degree of reliability growth may fluctuate greatly according
   to change in the internal state of the software. It is called the change
   point (CP). Several researchers proposed the SRGM considering CP. In the
   open source software (OSS), there are many projects that continue
   development even after the software is released. Therefore, major
   updates with breaking changes may occur in it. The major updates can be
   a factor that causes a CP because it greatly changes the internal state
   of the OSS. This paper focuses on the relationship between CP and
   software updates. We collect OSS fault data from a bug tracking system.
   Moreover, we examine the behavior of SRGM before and after software
   updates. Furthermore, we discuss the applicability of SRGM for CP in
   OSS. Also, we compare the proposed model based on CP with the model
   without CP. As a result, we have confirmed that the SRGM can evaluate
   the reliability in the environment with major updates. Moreover, the
   proposed method performs better than without considering CP model.
   Especially, the exponential model's mean value function is the suitable
   method to assess the OSS reliability for the proposed method.},

   models from RGB-D images. The proposed software pipeline consists of
   nine main stages: 1) RGBD acquisition; 2) 2D feature extraction; 3)
   camera pose estimation; 4) point cloud generation; 5) coarse mesh
   reconstruction; 6) optional loop closure; 7) fine mesh reconstruction;
   8) UV unwrapping; and 9) texture projection. This end-to-end scheme
   combines multiple state-of-the-art techniques and provides an
   easy-to-use software package for real-time 3D model reconstruction and
   offline texture mapping. The main innovation lies in various
   Structure-from-Motion (SfM) techniques that are used with additional
   depth data to yield high-quality 3D models in real-time and at low cost.
   The functionality of Open3DGen has been validated on AMD Ryzen 3900X CPU
   and Nvidia GTX1080 GPU. This proof-of-concept setup attains an average
   processing speed of 15 fps for 720p (1280x720) RGBD input without the
   offline backend. Our solution is shown to provide competitive 3D mesh
   quality and execution performance with the state-of-the-art commercial
   and academic solutions.},

Abstract = {Commercially available computer-controlled SQUID electronics are usually
   delivered with software providing a basic user interface for adjustment
   of superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) tuning
   parameters, such as bias current, flux offset, and feedback loop
   settings. However, in a research context it would often be useful to be
   able to modify this code and/or to have full control over all these
   parameters from researcher-written software. In the case of the STAR
   Cryoelectronics PCI/PFL family of SQUID control electronics, the
   supplied software contains modules for automatic tuning and noise
   characterization, but does not provide an interface for user code. On
   the other hand, the Magnicon SQUIDViewer software package includes a
   public application programming interface, but lacks auto-tuning and
   noise characterization features. To overcome these and other
   limitations, we are developing an ``open-source{''} framework for
   controlling SQUID electronics, which should provide maximal
   interoperability with user software, a unified user interface for
   electronics from different manufacturers, and a flexible platform for
   the rapid development of customized SQUID auto-tuning and other advanced
   features. We have completed a first implementation for the STAR
   Cryoelectronics hardware and have made the source code for this ongoing
   project available to the research community on SourceForge

Title = {A straightforward protocol for designing an interim hollow shell with
   open-source software},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF DENTISTRY},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {114},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Background: An interim hollow shell (IHS) is a temporary prosthesis that
   adapts like a cap over a prepared tooth abutment. Using a conventional
   protocol to fabricate IHS from casts of the initial situation or the
   wax-up can be challenging, time-consuming, and sometimes frustrating. A
   digital workflow makes this process quicker and more convenient. The IHS
   must be first designed with computer-aided design (CAD), then fabricated
   with computer-aided manufacture (CAM). Proprietary dental software is
   commonly used for the design process but needs to be purchased.
   Objective: To describe a step-by-step technique for designing an IHS for
   posterior relining with open-source software. Methods: This paper
   describes a straightforward procedure to design an IHS from a dental
   scan of the initial situation or a digital wax-up for an esthetic and
   functional temporary rehabilitation. Results: An IHS can be quickly
   designed using open-source software by copying an existing restoration
   or a conventional or digital wax-up. Then, the design can be 3D printed
   using a biocompatible resin. Conclusions: The clinician can use
   open-source software to design IHSs, which are then 3D printed using a
   biocompatible resin. Clinical relevance: The clinician can design IHSs
   from a dental scan of the initial situation or a wax-up using opensource
   software by following the step-by-step protocol outlined in this paper.
   The restoration can then be 3D printed using a biocompatible resin.},

Abstract = {The ability to record and analyse electrical behaviour across the heart
   using optical and electrode mapping has revolutionised cardiac research.
   However, wider uptake of these technologies is constrained by the lack
   of multi-functional and robustly characterised analysis and mapping
   software. We present ElectroMap, an adaptable, high-throughput,
   open-source software for processing, analysis and mapping of complex
   electrophysiology datasets from diverse experimental models and
   acquisition modalities. Key innovation is development of standalone
   module for quantification of conduction velocity, employing multiple
   methodologies, currently not widely available to researchers. ElectroMap
   has also been designed to support multiple methodologies for accurate
   calculation of activation, repolarisation, arrhythmia detection, calcium
   handling and beat-to-beat heterogeneity. ElectroMap implements automated
   signal segmentation, ensemble averaging and integrates optogenetic
   approaches. Here we employ ElectroMap for analysis, mapping and
   detection of proarrhythmic phenomena in silico, in cellulo, animal model
   and in vivo patient datasets. We anticipate that ElectroMap will
   accelerate innovative cardiac research and enhance the uptake,
   application and interpretation of mapping technologies leading to novel

Journal = {FUSION ENGINEERING AND DESIGN},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {187},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {In the last couple of years, a combined effort between NIER, Universit`a
   di Bologna and Fusion For Energy led to the development of JADE, a
   python-based open-source software for the Verification and Validation of
   nuclear data libraries. Nuclear data is fundamental for particle and
   radiation transport simulations which, in turn, are responsible for the
   evaluation of key quantities for fusion-related machines design such as
   nuclear heating, DPA, particles production and dose rates. The aim for
   the project is to offer standardization and automation to the V\&V
   process of data libraries in order to speed up their release cycles and,
   at the same time, improve the quality of the data. JADE takes advantage
   of MCNP for the particles and radiation transport simulations and, even
   if it is potentially applicable to the whole nuclear industry, a
   particular focus on fusion applications is obtained through the
   selections of the default benchmarks that have been implemented. The
   code was recently made publicly available to the community and the
   status of its development is summarized in this work. The more important
   features and benchmarks (both computational and experimental) are
   described, together with a brief discussion on the major case studies
   where JADE has been used. Lastly, the current strength and limitations
   of the tool are evaluated and the foreseen future developments for the
   project are outlined.},

Abstract = {Snow is an important water resource that plays a critical role in the
   global climate and hydrological cycle. Thus, Global Navigation Satellite
   System Interferometric Reflectometry (GNSS-IR) has emerged as a new
   remote sensing technology for monitoring snow depth. We developed the
   snow parameter processing software GiRsnow, based on GNSS-IR tools and a
   MATLAB environment, to obtain robust and effective retrievals. That tool
   allows users to check the data quality, draw reflection point trajectory
   and Fresnel zone, retrieve snow depth using signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
   observations or geometry-free linear carrier phase combination (termed
   L4) observations, and display the results based on the time and space
   domain. We conducted two experiments at the Plate Boundary Observation
   site RN86 and GPS Earth Observation Network (GEONET) site 020877 to
   validate the performance of the software. Our results demonstrate that
   GiRsnow can process multi-constellation and multi-frequency GNSS data
   and obtain robust and effective results through quality control and a
   grid model to account for topography effects.},

Abstract = {Data science has emerged as a significant capability upon which firms

   that employ them seem to have developed robust methods to employ data
   sciences practices to achieve competitive advantages, there have been
   few attempts at defining and explaining how and why data science helps

   analytic skillsets to scientifically extract insights from data, can be
   used to help meet the growing demand of analytic needs across an
   organization's value chain. This is done through the illustration of an
   applied data science initiative to a strategic sourcing problem via the
   use of open-source technology. In doing so, we contribute to the growing
   data science literature by demonstrating the application of unique data
   science capabilities. Moreover, the paper provides a tutorial on how to

Abstract = {Over the past two decades, a rich ecosystem of open-source software has
   evolved. For every type of application, there are a wide variety of
   alternatives. We observed that even if different applications that
   perform similar tasks and compiled with the same versions of the
   compiler and the libraries, they perform very differently while running
   on the same system. Sadly prior work in this area that compares two code
   bases for similarities does not help us in finding the reasons for the
   differences in performance.
   In this paper, we develop a tool, SoftMon, that can compare the
   codebases of two separate applications and pinpoint the exact set of
   functions that are disproportionately responsible for differences in
   performance. Our tool uses machine learning and NLP techniques to
   analyze why a given open-source application has a lower performance as
   compared to its peers, design bespoke applications that can incorporate
   specific innovations (identified by SoftMon) in competing applications,
   and diagnose performance bugs.
   In this paper, we compare a wide variety of large open-source programs
   such as image editors, audio players, text editors, PDF readers, mail
   clients and even full-fledged operating systems (OSs). In all cases, our
   tool was able to pinpoint a set of at the most 10-15 functions that are
   responsible for the differences within 200 seconds. A subsequent manual
   analysis assisted by our graph visualization engine helps us find the
   reasons. We were able to validate most of the reasons by correlating
   them with subsequent observations made by developers or from existing
   technical literature. The manual phase of our analysis is limited to 30
   minutes (tested with human subjects).},

Abstract = {Natural bone remodeling is the mechanism that regulates the relationship
   between bone morphology and external mechanical loads applied to it.
   This phenomenon has been studied extensively, including multiple
   numerical models that have been formulated to predict the density
   distribution and its evolution in several bone types. However, despite
   these models, bone remodeling mechanism under different stimuli is still
   not well understood. We implemented a recently proposed
   electromechanically driven bone remodeling model that encompasses both
   mechanical and therapeutic electrical stimuli using an open-source
   software framework, and studied a two-dimensional (2D) plate model and a
   femur bone model, respectively. For discretization, we employed the
   finite element method (FEM) for the spatial quantities and Euler scheme
   for the time derivatives. The simulation results demonstrate that the
   density distribution is changed under electrical stimulation, generally
   resulting in a greater mass deposition. This study supports the
   possibility of enhancing and accelerating the bone remodeling process
   via simultaneous application of electrical and mechanical stimulus.},

Abstract = {The use of free and open source software is gaining momentum due to the
   ever increasing availability and use of the Internet. Organizations are
   also now adopting open source software, despite some reservations in
   particular regarding the provision and availability of support. One of
   the greatest concerns about free and open source software is the
   availability of post release support and the handling of for support. A
   common belief is that there is no appropriate support available for this
   class of software, while an alternative argument is that due to the
   active involvement of Internet users in online forums, there is in fact
   a large resource available that communicates and manages the management
   of support requests. The research model of this empirical investigation
   establishes and studies the relationship between open source software
   support requests and online public forums. The results of this empirical
   study provide evidence about the realities of support that is present in
   open source software projects. We used a dataset consisting of 616 open
   source software projects covering a broad range of categories in this

   role in managing support requests in open source software, thus becoming
   a major source of assistance in maintenance of the open source projects},

Abstract = {A new, open-source, practical, modern and multi-platform Python
   application for concentrations calculation (PyES - Python Equilibrium

   precipitation and solution equilibria. Noteworthy, PyES is actually the
   only open-source software able to perform calculations at variable ionic
   strength, taking into account the dependence of the stability constants
   on it, and to take into account the error propagation to estimate the
   uncertainties in the calculated concentrations using those of the
   formation constants, solubility products and components concentrations.
   Various tests were performed to verify the reliability of PyES with very
   satisfying results. Moreover, PyES is user friendly and compatible with
   existing operative systems. The data analysis results can be visualized
   in a graphical presentation and can be easily exported as .xlsx or .csv

Abstract = {This paper proposes a flexible optimization sequence that can be applied
   to any parameter of a fuzzy inference system. Interrelated parameters
   can be optimized together, and criteria include system accuracy and
   coverage. The fuzzy inference system structure is preserved and
   constraints are imposed to respect the fuzzy partition semantics. The
   procedure described here uses a Solis \& Wets based algorithm, but the
   approach remains valid for other optimization techniques, provided that
   they accept semantic constraints. The optimization sequence is
   implemented in an open source software, FisPro, made for fuzzy inference
   system design and tuning.},

Abstract = {The design of optical filters relies on powerful computer-assisted
   methods. Many of these methods are provided by commercial programs, but,
   in order to adapt and improve them, or to develop new methods, one needs
   to create his own software. To help people interested in such a process,
   we decided to release our in-house software, called OpenFilters, under
   the GNU General Public License, an open-source license. It is programmed
   in Python and C + +, and the graphical user interface is implemented
   with wxPython. It allows creation of multilayer and graded-index filters
   and calculation of reflection, transmission, absorption, phase, group
   delay, group delay dispersion, color, ellipsometric variables,
   admittance diagram, circle diagram, electric field distribution, and
   generation of reflection, transmission, and ellipsometric monitoring
   curves. It also provides the refinement, needle, step, and Fourier
   transform methods. (c) 2008 Optical Society of America.},

Abstract = {In order to address the issue of macro-segregations in large industrial
   ingots, a solidification model has been recently developed in
   Code\_Saturne, the general purpose open-source Computational Fluid
   tablDynamics (CFD) software developed and released by EDF R\&D. This
   model is a liquid-solid mixture model inspired from the pioneer work of
   Bennon and Incropera, including mass, momentum, energy and species
   conservation equations. In particular, the energy conservation equation
   is formulated with the temperature variable, the thermosolutal
   convection is accounted for through the Boussinesq approximation and the
   interdendritic flow in the mushy zone is governed by the Darcy's law.
   Furthermore, a rigid solid phase is assumed and classical
   microsegregation models are used featuring lever-rule or Gulliver-Scheil
   assumptions. At the discrete level, a first-order upwind scheme is
   implemented with a SIMPLEC approach to solve the velocity-pressure
   coupling. The other couplings involving temperature and concentration
   fields are efficiently solved performing sub-loops with a PISO-like
   approach. The overall scheme is mainly implicit with additional
   treatments to ensure the equilibrium between the hydrostatic pressure
   gradient and the buoyant forces, and to deal properly with solid zones.
   The segregation predictions offered by the model are validated against
   both academic test case and industrial ingot configurations. A
   convergence study is also led focusing on time step and mesh size
   sensitivities.},

Abstract = {In this paper, we describe an open source software package aimed at
   solving reverse engineering problems for CAD models defined in polygonal
   form. We briefly discuss the main principles behind the new software,
   its architecture, and directions for its further development. The use of
   the software is illustrated by examples of a turbine blade. In the first
   example, the turbine blade is reconstructed automatically from a
   structured point cloud. Another example is the interactive
   reconstruction of the turbine blade from an unstructured surface
   triangulation. In both the cases, we use a surface skinning strategy
   enhanced by a curve fairing operator. We show that the modified skinning
   operator does not minimize the total bending energy of the surface, but
   yields a smooth patch where input inaccuracies are compensated for. The
   reconstruction result is a parametric model of the turbine blade where
   the design variables are the coordinates of the poles for each profile
   curve. The proposed software architecture can be used for partial or
   complete parameterization of reconstructed CAD models with the aim of
   their subsequent optimization.},

Abstract = {Leveraging computational resources for modern physics education has
   become increasingly prevalent, especially catalyzed by the COVID-19
   pandemic when distance learning is widely implemented. Herein, we report
   an open-source software for students and instructors to on-demand
   simulate optical reflection behaviors of one-dimensional photonic
   crystals (1D-PCs), a model system for understanding light-matter
   interactions relevant to materials science and optical physics.
   Specifically, our MATLAB application, ReflectSim, employs an adapted
   transfer matrix method simulation and can account for the effects of
   several critical material design parameters, including interfacial
   roughness and layer geometry, to determine the reflectance spectrum of
   user-defined 1D-PCs. By packing our codes into a graphical user
   interface, this software is simple to use and bypass the requirement of
   any coding experiences from users, which can be widely used as an
   education tool in high school/undergraduate classrooms and K-12 outreach
   activities. We believe that ReflectSim provides great potential for
   assisting students in understanding optical phenomenon in nanostructured
   layered materials and relevant scientific concepts through enabling more
   engaging learning experiences.},

Abstract = {This paper describes utilizing open-source numerical simulation
   software, typically used in solar photovoltaics research, as an
   attractive supplementary educational tool for teaching the underlying
   physics and operation of P-N junction diodes. Details of educational P-N
   device models and simulation-based learning scenarios developed for this
   purpose are provided here. The presented approach allows students to
   learn the essential concepts related to P-N diodes experientially. These
   include some frequently observed nonidealities, closely mimicking
   experimental I-V measurements. Unlike most educational tools in this
   field, all simulations demonstrated here are performed locally on the
   student's computer using free and portable software, which eliminates
   the need for a live internet connection or time-consuming installations,
   making it easier to implement in a classroom and much more accessible to
   students. The paper also discusses the implementation of this
   supplementary tool and reports the results of a survey conducted to
   measure student satisfaction with it and its implementation approach.
   The presented method can be adapted to suit the needs of undergraduate
   and graduate students studying engineering courses that require an
   introduction to semiconductor devices. The details of P-N diode device
   models are introduced and discussed so that users can modify them in
   accordance with their practical or educational purposes.},

Abstract = {Since the development of tools for the Suite for Automated Global
   Electronic bioSurveillance (SAGES) began in 2008, the SAGES team and
   sponsor have envisioned the eventual release of these tools as
   open-source software to the global public health and technology
   communities. Open-source software allows members of the public to study,
   customize, and operate their own local copies of the software and source
   code, often without monetary fees. As such, releasing SAGES as
   open-source software assures prospective users that they retain complete
   control over the health data collected by SAGES-based systems, and
   aligns well with the model of self-sustainability intended for the
   operation of SAGES systems in resource-limited settings. Preparing two
   SAGES tools, OpenESSENCE and SAGES Mobile, for release as open-source
   software projects entailed a multifaceted, months-long effort that
   spanned policy, technical, and community considerations. This article
   describes the issues, trade-offs, and decisions that were addressed
   leading up to the successful open-source release of OpenESSENCE and
   SAGES Mobile in June 2013. The aim of this case study is to inform

   the variety of data sources. And yet it is a compelling application
   area, given the number of potential municipal services that can be

Abstract = {Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) is an ISO/IEC MPEG standard
   which enables the convenient and smooth transportation of multimedia
   data to heterogeneous end devices over networks with variable bandwidth
   conditions. This kind of streaming technology is mainly used with HTTP
   1.0 and 1.1 respectively, which both have some drawbacks. Therefore, the
   IETF has started the development of HTTP 2.0, which is based on Google's
   SPDY proposal and already supported by several major companies, e. g.,
   Facebook, Twitter, Akamai, Mozilla and obviously Google. Furthermore,
   Content Centric Networking (CCN) is another novel approach for future
   networks that is considered as an revolutionary approach compared to
   HTTP 2.0. The CCN communication paradigm is completely different and
   does not rely on direct connections between hosts, it rather focuses on
   the content. This paper demonstrates DASH with HTTP 2.0/SPDY and CCN
   using our universal libdash library. Moreover, different mechanisms of
   DASH will be shown that can be used to provide on-demand and live
   content in an efficient and comfortable way.},

Abstract = {This study develops a stochastic model to capture developer learning
   dynamics in open source software projects (OSS). A hidden Markov model
   (HMM) is proposed that allows us to investigate (1) the extent to which
   individuals learn from their own experience and from interactions with
   peers, (2) whether an individual's ability to learn from these
   activities varies as she evolves/learns over time, and (3) to what
   extent individual learning persists over time. We calibrate the model
   based on six years of detailed data collected from 251 developers
   working on 25 OSS projects hosted at Sourceforge. Using the HMM, three
   latent learning states (high, medium, and low) are identified, and the
   marginal impact of learning activities on moving the developer between
   these states is estimated. Our findings reveal different patterns of
   learning in different learning states. Learning from peers appears to be
   the most important source of learning for developers across the three
   states. Developers in the medium learning state benefit the most through
   discussions that they initiate. On the other hand, developers in the low
   and the high states benefit the most by participating in discussions
   started by others. While in the low state, developers depend entirely
   upon their peers to learn, whereas in the medium or high state, they can
   also draw upon their own experiences. Explanations for these varying
   impacts of learning activities on the transitions of developers between
   the three learning states are provided. The HMM is shown to outperform
   the classical learning curve model. The HMM modeling of this study
   contributes to the development of a theoretically grounded understanding
   of learning behavior of individuals. Such a theory and associated
   findings have important managerial and operational implications for
   devising interventions to promote learning in a variety of settings.},

Abstract = {Peer review is seen as an important quality assurance mechanism in both
   industrial development and the open source software (OSS) community. The
   techniques for performing inspections have been well studied in
   industry; in OSS development, peer reviews are less well understood. We
   examine the two peer review techniques used by the successful, mature
   Apache server project: review-then-commit and commit-then-review. Using
   archival records of email discussion and version control repositories,
   we construct a series of metrics that produces measures similar to those
   used in traditional inspection experiments. Specifically, we measure the
   frequency of review, the level of participation in reviews, the size of
   the artifact under review, the calendar time to perform a review, and
   the number of reviews that find defects. We provide a comparison of the
   two Apache review techniques as well as a comparison of Apache review to
   inspection in an industrial project. We conclude that Apache reviews can
   be described as (1) early, frequent reviews (2) of small, independent,
   complete contributions (3) conducted asynchronously by a potentially
   large, but actually small, group of self-selected experts (4) leading to
   an efficient and effective peer review technique.},

Abstract = {All over the world people can gain the information at the same time by
   growing rate of Internet access around the world in recent years. In
   accordance with such a penetration of the Internet, it is increasing
   public awareness of the importance of online real-time and interactive
   functions. Therefore, software development environment has been changing
   into new development paradigms such as concurrent distributed
   development environment and the so-called open source project by using
   network computing technologies. Especially, such OSS (Open Source
   Software) systems which serve as key components of critical
   infrastructures in our society are still ever-expanding now. In this
   paper, we propose a software reliability growth model based on
   stochastic differential equations in order to consider the active state
   of the open source project. Especially, we assume that the software
   failure intensity depends on the time, and the software fault-report
   phenomena on the bug tracking system keep an irregular state. Also, we
   analyze actual software fault count data to show numerical examples of
   software reliability assessment for the OSS. Moreover, we compare our
   model with the conventional model based on stochastic differential
   equations in terms of goodness-of-fit for actual data. We show that the
   proposed model can assist improvement of quality for OSS systems
   developed under the open source project.},

Abstract = {This paper tests the hypothesis that generic recovery techniques, such
   as process pairs, can survive most application faults without using
   application-specific information. We examine in detail the faults that
   occur in three, large, open-source applications: the Apache web server,
   the GNOME desktop environment, and the MySQL database. Using information
   contained in the bug reports and source code, we classify faults based
   on how they depend on the operating environment. We find that 72-87\% of
   the faults are independent of the operating environment and are hence
   deterministic (non-transient). Recovering from the failures caused by
   these faults requires the use Of application-specific knowledge. Half of
   the remaining faults depend on a condition in the operating environment
   that is likely to persist on retry, and the failures caused by these
   faults are also likely to require application-specific recovery.
   Unfortunately, only 5-14\% of the faults were triggered by transient
   conditions, such as timing and synchronization, that naturally fix
   themselves during recovery. Our results indicate that classical
   application-generic recovery techniques, such as process pairs, will not
   be sufficient to enable applications to survive most failures caused by
   application faults.},

   we survey the current states of open source software testing tools from
   three aspects, namely, their availability for different programming
   platforms and types testing activities, maintenance of the tools and
   license limitations. From the 152 tools surveyed, we found that open
   source software testing tools not only are widely available for popular
   programming platforms, but also support a wide range of testing
   activities. Furthermore, we also found that more than half of the tools
   surveyed have been actively maintained and updated by the open source

Abstract = {There exists no universal tool to analyze the increasing complexity in
   smart grids. Domain specific simulation and engineering tools partly
   address the challenges of complex system behavior. Different component
   technologies, customer behavior and controls in the power networks are
   interacting in a highly dynamic manner. Results of isolated simulations
   may be not accurate enough on the system level. Free and open available
   tools like GridLAB-D, PSAT, OpenModelica and 4DIAC are well known and
   widely used because of their excellent domain specific expertise. With
   co-simulation approaches the individual strengths of each tool can be
   exploited to model and simulate the various aspects of complex smart
   grids. The achieved level of detail and realism potentially surpasses
   the results that the individual analyses would gain.
   This paper demonstrates a local smart charging control strategy
   implemented with the IEC 61499-based standard for distributed control
   systems. It is simulated with different electric vehicle driving
   patterns, modeled with the multi-agent environment GridLAB-D. Battery
   models are defined in OpenModelica and embedded as individual dynamic
   loads. The power system is simulated using PSAT. This work shows that
   boundaries and restriction in terms of modeling cross-domain specific
   problems can be overcome by coupling these open source applications.},

   automatically retrieves and processes remote-sensing observations, and
   visualizes the imaging data that can be used for the analysis. Thanks to
   PyThea, the three-dimensional reconstruction of CMEs and shock waves is
   an easy task, with final products ready for publication. The package
   provides three widely used geometrical models for the reconstruction of
   CMEs and shocks, namely, the graduated cylindrical shell (GCS) and an
   ellipsoid/spheroid model. It also provides tools to process the final
   fittings and calculate the kinematics. The final fitting products can

Title = {AirSeaFluxCode: Open-source software for calculating turbulent air-sea
   fluxes from meteorological parameters},
Journal = {FRONTIERS IN MARINE SCIENCE},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {9},
Month = {FEB 6},
Abstract = {The turbulent exchanges, or fluxes, of heat, moisture and momentum
   between the atmosphere and the ocean play a crucial role in the Earth's
   climate system. Direct measurements of turbulent fluxes are very
   challenging and sparse, and do not span the full range of environmental
   conditions that exist over the ocean. This means that empirical ``bulk
   formulae{''} parameterizations that relate direct flux observations to
   concurrent measurements of the mean meteorological and sea surface
   variables contain considerable uncertainty. In this paper, we present a
   Python 3.6 (or higher) open-source software package ``AirSeaFluxCode{''}
   for the computation of the heat (latent and sensible) and momentum
   fluxes. Ten different parameterizations are included, each based on
   published descriptions or code and each derived from a different set of
   observations, or different assumptions about the turbulent exchange
   processes. They represent a range of current expert opinion on how the
   fluxes depend on mean properties and can be used to explore uncertainty
   in calculated fluxes. AirSeaFluxCode also allows the adjustment of the
   mean meteorological input parameters (air temperature, humidity and wind
   speed) from the height at which they are obtained to a user-defined
   output height. This height adjustment enables the comparison of
   measurements, or model-derived values, made at different heights above
   sea-level. The parameterizations calculate the fluxes using input
   parameters that are relatively easily to measure, or are available as
   model output: wind speed, air temperature, sea surface temperature,
   atmospheric pressure and humidity. Where original code is available we
   have compared its output with that of AirSeaFluxCode. Any changes made
   to increase consistency across algorithms by standardizing computational
   methods or calculation of meteorological variables, for example, are
   discussed and the impacts quantified: these are shown to be
   insignificant except for a few cases where conditions were extreme, and
   AirSeaFluxCode is shown to be robust. We also investigate the impact on
   the fluxes caused by different assumptions about the exchange processes,
   or the choices inherent in the implementation of the parameterizations.
   For example, sea surface temperature usually refers to data typically
   obtained at depths of between 1 and 10 m. However, since some
   parameterizations require a ``skin{''} sea surface temperature, code
   that adjusts temperature at depth to skin temperature is included: this
   has a very significant impact on the fluxes. Selecting a
   parameterization that is appropriate for the available sea surface
   temperature will avoid the need to adjust the sea temperature data and
   the uncertainties associated with that adjustment, and will also avoid
   the biases due to use of the ``wrong{''} measure of temperature.
   Significant differences also resulted from assumptions about the size of
   reduction in sea surface humidity to account for salinity effects: the
   uncertainty in the reduction factor needs to be quantified in future
   analyses. Fluxes in extreme conditions are particularly uncertain since
   the transfer coefficients in the different parameterizations vary most
   at very high and very low wind speeds. Low wind speeds are also
   challenging for numerical implementation since choices have to be made
   regarding: convergence criteria for the iterative calculation, inclusion
   of a parameterization for convective gustiness, or application of ad hoc
   limits to various parameters. All of these choices can significantly
   affect the flux estimates for light winds.},

Booktitle = {OPEN SOURCE TECHNOLOGY: CONCEPTS, METHODOLOGIES, TOOLS, AND APPLICATIONS},
Year = {2015},
Pages = {528-560},
Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is well established in sectors as diverse as
   aviation, health, telecommunications, finance, publishing, education,
   and government. As nations increasingly rely on knowledge assets to
   grow, the adoption of OSS will have profound economic consequences. This
   paper identifies the mechanisms inherent to OSS production that help
   fuel innovation in knowledge-based economies. As a collaborative and
   open production model, OSS is conceptualized as a prototype of open
   innovation. Drawing on US employment projections for 2008-2018, the
   authors' analysis predicts OSS will have a positive impact on employment
   growth in well-paid salary jobs across multiple sectors of the US
   economy. OSS-related software development jobs are widely diffuse
   throughout the economy, help build a skilled labour force and offer
   wages significantly above the national average. OSS is thus believed to
   be a strong contributor to growth in high-value employment in the US.
   The authors also posit that, as industries are exposed to the benefits
   of OSS as a result of the broad diffusion of OSS-related jobs, open
   innovation processes outside software development may be adopted through
   a process of learning and imitation.},

Title = {Simulating upgrades of complex systems: The case of Free and Open Source
   Software},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {56},
Number = {4},
Pages = {438-462},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Context: The upgrade of complex systems is intrinsically difficult and
   requires techniques, algorithms, and methods which are both expressive
   and computationally feasible in order to be used in practice. In the
   case of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) systems, many upgrade
   errors cannot be discovered by current upgrade managers and then a
   system upgrade can potentially lead the system to an inconsistent and
   incoherent state.
   Objective: The objective of this paper is to propose an approach to
   simulate the upgrade of complex systems in order to predict errors
   before they affect the real system.
   Method: The approach promotes the use of model-driven engineering
   techniques to simulate the upgrade of complex systems. The basic idea is
   to have a model-based description of the system to be upgraded and to
   make use of model transformations to perform the upgrade on a source
   model so to obtain a target model representing the state of the upgraded
   system.
   Results: We provide an implementation of the simulator, which is
   tailored to FOSS systems. The architecture of the simulator is
   distribution independent so that it can be easily instantiated to
   specific distributions. The simulator takes into account also pre and
   post-installation scripts that equip each distribution package. This
   feature is extremely important since maintainer scripts are full-fledged
   programs that are run with system administration rights.
   Conclusions: The paper shows the kind of errors the simulator is able to
   predict before upgrading the real system, and how the approach improves
   the state of the art of package managers while integrated in real Linux
   distribution installations. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {The collaboration among the PRESN team, LaMCScI laboratory and CNESTEN
   center made it possible to implement the first version of the GSA
   software. Its first version is already available to the public; it is
   not only free but also an open source, demonstrating the developers'
   commitment to promoting the open sharing of scientific knowledge. This
   first version is characterized by its flexibility and non-commerciality,
   and it is available without any conditions on the following website:
   https://www.github.com/LAHCEN-EL-AMRI/Gamma-Spectra-Analysis, allowing
   users to add personal options, making it a particularly adaptable tool
   to the different requirements of scientific research. This article deals
   with the second version of GSA, which focuses on a core and
   complementary feature: the calculation of isotope activity. In order to
   accomplish this goal, instead of implementing a single efficiency
   formula, as is often the case in most software, four formulas were
   integrated. The users can therefore select the one they want to
   implement. To ensure the accuracy and reliability of this new feature, a
   validation was performed on GSA. The results obtained with GSA v2 were
   carefully studied by comparing them to those obtained with the renowned
   Genie 2000 software. Owing to this comparison step, it was possible to
   verify and confirm the accuracy of the results of GSA version 2. This
   second version of GSA is available as a free and open source software on
   the following site:

Title = {A tightly coupled scheme for neutronics and thermal-hydraulics using
   open-source software},
Journal = {ANNALS OF NUCLEAR ENERGY},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {87},
Number = {2},
Pages = {16-22},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Coupling neutronic and thermal-hydraulic analyses of a nuclear reactor
   core is important because it helps identify the most relevant safety
   issues without conservative assumptions. Currently coupled computations
   solve the same governing equations using different coupling methods,
   which can be sorted into two categories: loose coupling and tight
   coupling. This paper proposes and verifies a third coupling approach
   called ``the Integrated Tight Coupling (ITC) method{''}. The
   mathematical equations in the nuclear fuel are rearranged to be
   integrated via a novel concept of the energy-group function. In
   addition, the data from the neutron cross section library can be used
   directly. The ITC method is implemented using two open-source codes: the
   DRAGON code and OpenFOAM. Additionally, a coupled computation using
   these two codes is new and has not been done. The ITC method is verified
   using a 1.5-D (1-D neutronics and 2-D thermal-hydraulics) symmetric unit
   cell example. The mesh of the tightly integrated computation is 25\%
   coarser than the loosely coupled one. Starting from a similar initial
   guess, the number of iterations for the ITC method is 24\% fewer than
   that for the loosely coupled computation to reach the same accuracy. In
   addition, the ITC method is tested with different initial guesses. For
   all cases tested, the scheme converged to the same solution. With
   further improvement and additional testing, the ITC method has the
   potential to be incorporated with other neutronics and
   thermal-hydraulics codes. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {To facilitate software maintenance and save the maintenance cost,
   numerous machine learning (ML) techniques have been studied to predict
   the maintainability of software modules or classes. An abundant amount
   of effort has been put by the research community to develop software
   maintainability prediction (SMP) models by relating software metrics to
   the maintainability of modules or classes. When software classes
   demanding the high maintainability effort (HME) are less as compared to
   the low maintainability effort (LME) classes, the situation leads to
   imbalanced datasets for training the SMP models. The imbalanced class
   distribution in SMP datasets could be a dilemma for various ML
   techniques because, in the case of an imbalanced dataset, minority class
   instances are either misclassified by the ML techniques or get discarded
   as noise. The recent development in predictive modeling has ascertained
   that ensemble techniques can boost the performance of ML techniques by
   collating their predictions. Ensembles themselves do not solve the
   class-imbalance problem much. However, aggregation of ensemble
   techniques with the certain techniques to handle class-imbalance problem
   (e.g., data resampling) has led to several proposals in research. This
   paper evaluates the performance of ensembles for the class-imbalance in
   the domain of SMP. The ensembles for class-imbalance problem (ECIP) are
   the modification of ensembles which pre-process the imbalanced data
   using data resampling before the learning process. This study
   experimentally compares the performance of several ECIP using
   performance metrics Balance and g-Mean over eight Apache software
   datasets. The results of the study advocate that for imbalanced
   datasets, ECIP improves the performance of SMP models as compared to
   classic ensembles.},

   contributions from hobbyists, universities, research centers, as well as
   software vendors and user firms. Theorists have referred to this kind of
   combined public and private investments in innovation creation as
   private-collective innovation. In particular, the private-collective
   innovation model seeks to explain why firms privately invest resources
   to create artifacts that share the characteristics of non-rivalry and
   non-excludability. The aim of this research is to investigate how
   different contributor groups associated with public and increasing
   private interests interact in an OSS development project. The results of

Abstract = {Business processes of modern companies are characterized by a huge
   complexity which is caused for example by quickly changing markets,
   short product life cycles or dynamic interactions between particular
   subsystems of a company. Business process management is intended to
   implement efficient and customer orientated processes whereby the
   simulation of business processes can be used to evaluate the quality of
   processes and to identify areas of improvements. Since real business
   processes usually contain decision processes which can be solved by
   optimization systems, it makes sense to,combine the simulation and the
   optimization of business processes. (Marz et.al. 2010, p 3ff.)
   As an example of a reasonable combined simulation and optimization of
   business processes, the navigation in a road network is discussed in
   this paper. Consider vehicles seeking the fastest route from a starting
   node to a target node using a navigation system. The amount of time
   spent driving on an arc is influenced by the distance and the amount of
   the vehicles on this arc and is continuously changing. The structure of
   the road network and the traffic within the network is described in a
   simulation model while the fastest path decisions of each vehicle are
   made by using an optimization system. There is obviously a relationship
   between the individual decisions made for each of the vehicles and the
   state of the entire network.
   The aim of this paper is to describe how a combined simulation and
   optimization of business processes can be created through using
   EPC-Simulator (Muller 2012) as a simulation system and CMPL (Steglich
   and Schleiff 2010) as an optimization system where the network traffic
   simulation is used exemplarily.},

Journal = {FRONTIERS IN NEUROINFORMATICS},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {11},
Month = {JAN 31},
Abstract = {Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can provide parameters
   that describe white matter microstructure, such as the fiber volume
   fraction (FVF), the myelin volume fraction (MVF) or the axon volume
   fraction (AVF) via the fraction of restricted water (fr). While already
   being used for clinical application, the complex interplay between these
   parameters requires thorough validation via simulations. These
   simulations required a realistic, controlled and adaptable model of the
   white matter axons with the surrounding myelin sheath. While there
   already exist useful algorithms to perform this task, none of them
   combine optimisation of axon packing, presence of myelin sheath and
   availability as free and open source software. Here, we introduce a
   novel disk packing algorithm that addresses these issues. The
   performance of the algorithm is tested in term of reproducibility over
   50 runs, resulting density, and stability over iterations. This tool was
   then used to derive multiple values of FVF and to study the impact of
   this parameter on fr and MVF in light of the known microstructure based
   on histology sample. The standard deviation of the axon density over
   runs was lower than 10(-3) and the expected hexagonal packing for
   monodisperse disks was obtained with a density close to the optimal
   density (obtained: 0.892, theoretical: 0.907). Using an FVF ranging
   within {[}0.58, 0.82] and a mean inter-axon gap ranging within {[}0.1,
   1.1] mu m, MVF ranged within {[}0.32, 0.44] and fr ranged within
   {[}0.39, 0.71], which is consistent with the histology. The proposed
   algorithm is implemented in the open-source software AxonPacking
   (hups://github.comineuropoly/ axonpacking) and can be useful for
   validating diffusion models as well as for enabling researchers to study
   the interplay between microstructure parameters when evaluating qMRI
   methods.},

Abstract = {A diverse range of innovative solutions based on Free-and-Open-Source
   Software (FOSS) have been developed for marginalized communities in
   developing countries. It has been suggested that such small-scale and
   home-grown solutions (e.g. mobile phone apps), usually championed by
   social enterprises (SEs), are more likely to introduce pro-poor change
   than infrastructure heavy ICT initiatives designed by state and other
   international actors. In the Indian context, FOSS-based social
   innovations (SIs) introduced by SEs are helping poor communities tackle
   previously thought-to-be unresolvable socio-economic problems. An
   interesting question, therefore, would be: in what ways is the SE model
   and approach uniquely equipped to develop FOSS-based SIs that deliver
   pro-poor change? The empirical component of the research attempts to
   shed light on this question by uncovering the nuts and bolts of the
   development methodology deployed by an SE during the coding and launch
   of an FOSS-based SI. Findings highlight the significant role of the
   founder's social vision; the challenges of accurately capturing and
   translating to software developers the nature and nuance of social
   problems; and, the incumbent issues in putting together a methodology
   that creates active user engagement throughout the software development
   process, overcoming difficult barriers such as language and culture. (C)

Abstract = {Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) communities are composed, in
   part, of volunteers, many of whom contribute infrequently. However,
   these infrequent volunteers contribute to the sustainability of FLOSS
   projects, and should ideally be encouraged to continue participating,
   even if they cannot be persuaded to contribute regularly. Infrequent
   contributions are part of a trend which has been widely observed in
   other sectors of volunteering, where it has been termed ``episodic
   volunteering{''} (EV). Previous FLOSS research has focused on the Onion
   model, differentiating core and peripheral developers, with the latter
   considered as a homogeneous group. We argue this is too simplistic,
   given the size of the periphery group and the myriad of valuable
   activities they perform beyond coding. Our exploratory qualitative
   survey of 13 FLOSS communities investigated what episodic volunteering
   looks like in a FLOSS context. EV is widespread in FLOSS communities,
   although not specifically managed. We suggest several recommendations
   for managing EV based on a framework drawn from the volunteering
   literature. Also, episodic volunteers make a wide range of value-added
   contributions other than code, and they should neither be expected nor
   coerced into becoming habitual volunteers.},

Abstract = {Structural learning of Bayesian networks (BNs) from observational data
   has gained increasing applied use and attention from various scientific
   and industrial areas. The mathematical theory of BNs and their
   optimization is well developed. Although there are several open-source
   BN learners in the public domain, none of them are able to handle both
   small and large feature space data and recover network structures with
   acceptable accuracy. bAIcis (R) is a novel BN learning and simulation
   software from BERG. It was developed with the goal of learning BNs from
   ``Big Data{''} in health care, often exceeding hundreds of thousands
   features when research is conducted in genomics or multi-omics. This
   article provides a comprehensive performance evaluation of bAIcis and
   its comparison with the open-source BN learners. The study investigated
   synthetic datasets of discrete, continuous, and mixed data in small and
   large feature space, respectively. The results demonstrated that bAIcis
   outperformed the publicly available algorithms in structure recovery
   precision in almost all of the evaluated settings, achieving the true
   positive rates of 0.9 and precision of 0.8. In addition, bAIcis supports
   all data types, including continuous, discrete, and mixed variables. It
   is effectively parallelized on a distributed system and can work with
   datasets of thousands of features that are infeasible for any of the
   publicly available tools with a desired level of recovery accuracy.},

Abstract = {Two-mode networks are used to describe dual patterns of association
   between distinct social entities through their joint involvement in
   categories, activities, issues, and events. In empirical organizational
   research, the analysis of two-mode networks is typically accomplished
   either by (a) decomposition of the dual structure into its two unimodal
   components defined in terms of indirect relations between entities of
   the same kind or (b) direct statistical analysis of individual two-mode
   dyads. Both strategies are useful, but neither is fully satisfactory. In
   this article, the authors introduce newly developed stochastic
   actor-based models for two-mode networks that may be adopted to redress
   the limitations of current analytical strategies. The authors specify
   and estimate the model in the context of data they have collected on the
   dual association between software developers and software problems
   observed during a complete release cycle of an open source software
   project. The authors discuss the general methodological implications of
   the models for organizational research based on the empirical analysis
   of two-mode networks.},

Abstract = {Software Defined Networking (SDN) is programmable by separation of
   forwarding control through the centralization of the controller. The
   controller plays the role of the `brain' that dictates the intelligent
   part of SDN technology. Various versions of SDN controllers exist as a
   response to the diverse demands and functions expected of them. There
   are several SDN controllers available in the open market besides a large
   number of commercial controllers; some are developed to meet
   carrier-grade service levels and one of the recent trends in open-source
   SDN controllers is the Open Network Operating System (ONOS). This paper
   presents a comparative study between open source SDN controllers, which
   are known as Network Controller Platform (NOX), Python-based Network
   Controller (POX), component-based SDN framework (Ryu), Java-based
   OpenFlow controller (Floodlight), OpenDayLight (ODL) and ONOS. The
   discussion is further extended into ONOS architecture, as well as, the
   evolution of ONOS controllers. This article will review use cases based
   on ONOS controllers in several application deployments. Moreover, the
   opportunities and challenges of open source SDN controllers will be
   discussed, exploring carrier- grade ONOS for future real-world
   deployments, ONOS unique features and identifying the suitable choice of
   SDN controller for service providers. In addition, we attempt to provide
   answers to several critical questions relating to the implications of
   the open-source nature of SDN controllers regarding vendor lock-in,
   interoperability, and standards compliance, Similarly, real-world use
   cases of organizations using open-source SDN are highlighted and how the
   open-source community contributes to the development of SDN controllers.
   Furthermore, challenges faced by open-source projects, and
   considerations when choosing an open-source SDN controller are
   underscored. Then the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine
   Learning (ML) in the evolution of open-source SDN controllers in light
   of recent research is indicated. In addition, the challenges and
   limitations associated with deploying open-source SDN controllers in
   production networks, how can they be mitigated, and finally how open-
   source SDN controllers handle network security and ensure that network
   configurations and policies are robust and resilient are presented.
   Potential opportunities and challenges for future Open SDN deployment
   are outlined to conclude the article.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) projects leverage the contribution of
   outsiders. In fact, the sustainability of many projects relies on
   retaining some of these newcomers. Usually these communities do not
   coordinate the work of the newcomers, who go to the issue trackers and
   self-select a task to start with. We found that ``finding a way to
   start{''} was reported as an important issue by practitioners. To
   further investigate this specific barrier, we conducted a qualitative
   analysis with data obtained from semi-structured interviews with 36
   subjects from 14 different projects, including newcomers and experienced
   members. We used procedures of Grounded Theory-open and axial coding-to
   analyze the data. We found that newcomers are not confident enough to
   choose their initial task and they need information about the tasks or
   direction from the community to support choosing a task more suitable
   for them. We also present a set of strategies identified in the
   literature, interviews, and state-of-the-practice that can provide
   newcomers with such information, enabling them to be more confident when
   choosing their first tasks and collaborate with the community.},

Abstract = {Computer vision is an important subject in computer science and
   engineering degrees. For laboratory lectures, we need a tool that is
   complete and easy to use. In this work we present a Java library which
   is oriented to teaching. This means that we have designed and built the
   library thinking in readability and understanding instead of efficiency.
   In this paper we present the open source project JavaVis, oriented to
   Computer Vision teaching. It consists of a framework with several
   features that make it useful for that purpose. It was designed to be
   easy to use: the user does not have to deal with internal structures and
   graphical interface, and adding a new algorithm is a simple task.
   We have developed three different modules, based on three different
   needs we have noticed in our subjects. The first one is a basic library
   for image processing. Besides the previously commented features, it
   supports geometrical data (edges, segments, points, etc.). The second
   module is based on the same working schema as the first one, but applied
   to 3D data. These two modules are enough for testing many well-known
   algorithms. They also suit the programming needs of students and
   teachers, as they can easily develop their own algorithms for the
   JavaVis framework. All JavaVis functions can be launched both from
   command line, as well as with the JavaVis Graphical User Interface.
   Finally we have extended JavaVis with a third module consisting of a
   visual desktop where different Computer Vision functions can be easily
   placed and connected. Its purpose is to visualize intermediate results
   in processes involving several functions, helping their better
   understanding.
   Once the library is presented, we focus on the experience using this
   library in several computer science courses. Our main goal using this
   library is that the students understand what they are doing. We have
   taken questionnaires during two years in order to know the improvement
   the students have gotten using the library. Results are shown and
   conclusions are drawn.},

Abstract = {An optimization framework combines various methods, strategies, and
   programming interfaces on a robust software platform. Its development
   requires knowledge from application areas, and about optimization
   methods, as well as from software engineering. Different persons provide
   diverse know-how about modeling and simulating engineering and/or
   business problems, about search and optimization methods, and about new
   software trends to implement them into software. This paper describes
   the approach how an optimization framework based on evolutionary
   algorithms and other methods is developed in subsequent projects with
   application engineers and software developers cooperatively working
   together guaranteeing a sophisticated knowledge transfer. Therefore,
   particular knowledge management aspects are emphasized. As result, the
   optimization platform OpenOpal and the ideas behind its software
   architecture, supporting the know-how transfer, are presented. In order
   to continuously improve this optimization framework it is transferred
   into an open-source software initiative. The objective is to broaden the
   user group by increasing the number of knowledge contributors both from
   academia - integrating and testing newly developed optimization methods
   - and from various engineering areas - providing real-world problems to

Abstract = {MASCARET modeling framework is a set of numerical codes simulating
   one-dimensional (1-D) hydro-environmental problems through a network of
   open channels. The governing equations underlying MASCARET are the
   shallow water equations for unsteady flow propagation and the
   advection-dispersion equation for water quality and contaminant
   transport. The hydraulic component accounts for floodplains and storage
   areas, and flow at channel junction can be treated using a 2-D approach.
   Additionally, flood propagation over dry beds (e. g. dam-break flows)
   and non-hydrostatic waves can be simulated. The user interface
   FUDAA-MASCARET manages the input data, allocation of parameters, running
   of simulations and viewing outputs. MASCARET can be easily compiled as a
   dynamic library, offering special interfaces to be used with three main
   steps: Initialization, Run and Finalization of the calculation. With
   these features, MASCARET can be coupled or integrated to other softwares
   without requiring significant efforts. Since July 2011, MASCARET is
   worldwide distributed as an open-source code. In this paper, are
   presented various applications of this tool covering both flow
   hydrodynamic and water quality. Model-data comparisons show the
   performance of the modeling framework, and demonstrate the interest of
   this open-source software for the scientific community.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) refers to software whose source code is
   publicly available, allowing its modification and distribution at no
   cost. However, due to these OSS projects' collaborative and
   community-based nature, they often lack resources to focus on quality
   aspects, such as efficiency and usability. This research aims to apply
   the adapted Interface Content Model usability technique in the
   open-source software Koodo Reader project. We participated as volunteers
   in this project, although we did not have the authorization of the
   leading developer. To validate the effectiveness of the adapted
   technique, tests were conducted with representative users, covering a
   variety of interactions with the Koodo Reader interface. The results of
   these tests were used for prototyping, which was evaluated and validated
   by the user community of the Koodo Reader project. In conclusion, the
   successful application of the Interface Content Modeling technique has
   proven to be a tool that helps improve the quality of projects. It makes
   it easier for the developer community to collaborate to improve the
   end-user experience and make the project more appealing to users. This
   case exemplifies how collaboration and teamwork in the OSS context can
   generate innovative and effective solutions.},

Abstract = {The rising participation of for-profit corporations in the development
   of open source software raises the question of why corporations are
   motivated toward this engagement. The increased participation is an
   observable phenomenon; many researchers and practitioners assume that
   the practice of community sharing does not improve the bottom line, but
   rather believe the practice is altruistic in nature. Our intuition is
   that participation offers tangible and intangible benefits to corporate
   participants. We show this by exploring a variety of models in game
   theory and use game theory as a methodological lens to explain the
   rationality of corporate participation in open source software
   development. Since game theory has evolved to include rational- and
   emotional-based reasons, we explore such lenses as cooperative games,
   metagames, coopetition, and Drama Theory. Our research question, Why do
   for-profit corporations participate in the development of open source
   software? was broad enough to adopt several useful perspectives to
   understand our data. One useful lens was game theory. In this article,
   we examine interview responses and field study data from corporate
   members of open source communities to determine how they justify
   devoting time and effort to community engagement. Our study makes a
   contribution to open source software literature by revealing that
   numerous rational and emotional reasons exist for corporate
   participation in open source software development.},

Abstract = {Context: Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) communities consist of
   different types of contributors. Core contributors and peripheral
   contributors work together to create a successful project, each playing
   a different role. One-Time Contributors (OTCs), who are on the very
   fringe of the peripheral developers, are largely unstudied despite
   offering unique insights into the development process. In a prior
   survey, we identified OTCs and discovered their motivations and
   barriers. Aims: The objective of this study is to corroborate the survey
   results and provide a better understand of OTCs. We compare OTCs to
   other peripheral and core contributors to determine whether they are
   distinct. Method: We mined data from the same code-review repository
   used to identify survey respondents in our previous study. After
   identifying each contributor as core, periphery, or OTC, we compared
   them in terms of patch size, time interval from submission to decision,
   the nature of their conversations, and patch acceptance rates. Results:
   We identified a continuum between core developers and OTCs. OTCs create
   smaller patches, face longer time intervals between patch submission and
   rejection, have longer review conversations, and face lower patch
   acceptance rates. Conversely, core contributors create larger patches,
   face shorter time intervals for feedback, have shorter review
   conversations, and have patches accepted at the highest rate. The
   peripheral developers fall in between the OTCs and the core
   contributors. Conclusion: OTCs do, in fact, face the barriers identified
   in our prior survey. They represent a distinct group of contributors
   compared to core and peripheral developers.},

Abstract = {Health-tech startups are essential, as they provide cutting-edge
   solutions to numerous healthcare concerns in the rapidly evolving
   healthcare industry. They use various technologies to create solutions
   that boost and advance healthcare systems and healthcare delivery.
   Open-source software (OSS) technology has become an essential component
   of startups' toolkits, providing various advantages, such as free access
   to source codes and opportunities for innovation. Research on OSS in
   healthcare startups is limited, so our study aims to investigate how
   healthtech startups perceive the influence of OSS on product development
   and to identify the challenges they face. To meet this objective, we
   conducted an empirical study with six health-tech startups, using
   semi-structured interviews. Thematic analysiswas performed on the
   collected data to identify common themes and subthemes related to the
   research objective. The findings showed that health-tech startups
   benefit from the cost efficiency, scalability, and customization of OSS.
   Open-source software tools, reshape development and promote efficient
   code management, provide community support, and reduce costs. However,
   they demand OSS knowledge, management of updates, regulatory compliance,
   and heightened cybersecurity. Our study adds to the body of knowledge on
   OSS and healthcare startups and the connection between them. We provide
   recommendations for health-tech startups, such as embracing OSS tools
   for their benefits, investing in education and training, and engaging
   with the OSS community for comprehensive support in their product

Abstract = {The use of open-source software (OSS) is ever-increasing, and so is the
   number of open-source vulnerabilities being discovered and publicly
   disclosed. The gains obtained from the reuse of community-developed
   libraries may be offset by the cost of detecting, assessing, and
   mitigating their vulnerabilities in a timely manner.
   In this paper we present a novel method to detect, assess and mitigate
   OSS vulnerabilities that improves on state-of-the-art approaches, which
   commonly depend on metadata to identify vulnerable OSS dependencies. Our
   solution instead is code-centric and combines static and dynamic
   analysis to determine the reachability of the vulnerable portion of
   libraries used (directly or transitively) by an application. Taking this
   usage into account, our approach then supports developers in choosing
   among the existing non-vulnerable library versions.
   Vulas, the tool implementing our code-centric and usage-based approach,
   is officially recommended by SAP to scan its Java software, and has been
   successfully used to perform more than 250000 scans of about 500
   applications since December 2016. We report on our experience and on the
   lessons we learned when maturing the tool from a research prototype to

Abstract = {Our recent studies on single releases of multiple open-source software
   (OSS) products showed a higher concentration of dependencies in smaller
   modules. For one of the products, it was observed that an isolatable and
   observable refactoring initiative exacerbated this concentration
   inequality. In this paper, we empirically investigate the dependency
   concentration in smaller modules from a longitudinal perspective: (1)
   whether this concentration inequality always exists over product life
   time; (2) how it changes. We hypothesize that the concentration
   inequality should either remain at same levels or increase over time.
   This is because large-scale and long-lived software products usually go
   through some degree of continuous and intermittent refactoring. Our
   results show that dependencies concentrate in smaller classes in all
   releases, and this concentration inequality generally increases over
   successive releases. We suggest that software practitioners continuously
   pay a higher QA attention to smaller modules. We also recommend
   increasing such QA focus as a product matures and goes through
   refactoring activities.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is probably the best known exemplar of open
   innovation, with many practitioner-oriented publications having debated
   the merits and drawbacks of OSS in recent years. Nevertheless, much of
   the academic research on OSS has focused on individual rather than
   organizational issues. Hence while there is some understanding of why
   individual developers and users opt for particular OSS applications,
   relatively little is known about the adoption of OSS as a software
   acquisition policy. This paper presents a study of 13 managers in the
   secondary software sector in Europe, and examines how their perceptions
   of the benefits and drawbacks of OSS affected their decision to adopt an
   open source policy for software in their companies. The study reveals
   how their perceptions of the business and technical benefits and
   drawbacks of OSS influenced the technological, organizational,
   environmental and individual factors considered within the adoption
   process. The findings reveal that many of these factors are similar to
   those reported by previous work on the adoption of innovation, leading
   us to conclude that organizational processes for the adoption of open
   innovation are reliant on the practices for closed innovation despite
   frequently cited loss of organizational control associated with open
   innovation.},

Journal = {COMPUTERS \& GEOSCIENCES},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {144},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Fast computation of three-dimensional gravity and magnetic forward
   models is considered. When the measurement data is assumed to be
   obtained on a uniform grid which is staggered with respect to the
   discretization of the parameter volume, the resulting kernel sensitivity
   matrices exhibit block-Toeplitz-Toeplitzblock (BTTB) structure. These
   matrices are symmetric for the gravity problem but unsymmetric for the
   magnetic problem. In each case, the structure facilitates fast forward
   computation using two-dimensional fast Fourier transforms. The
   construction of the kernel matrices and the application of the transform
   for fast forward multiplication, for each problem, is carefully
   described. But, for purposes of comparison with the non-transform
   approach, the generation of the unique entries that define a given
   kernel matrix is also explained. It is also demonstrated how the
   matrices, and hence transforms, are adjusted when padding around the
   volume domain is introduced. The transform algorithms for fast forward
   matrix multiplication with the sensitivity matrix and its transpose,
   without the direct construction of the relevant matrices, are presented.
   Numerical experiments demonstrate the significant reduction in
   computation time and memory requirements that are achieved using the
   transform implementation. Thus, it becomes feasible, both in terms of
   reduced memory requirements and computational time, to implement the
   transform algorithms for large three-dimensional volumes. All presented
   algorithms, including with variable padding, are coded for optimal
   memory, storage and computation as an open source MATLAB code which can
   be adapted for any convolution kernel which generates a BTTB matrix,
   whether or not it is symmetric. This work, therefore, provides a general
   tool for the efficient simulation of gravity and magnetic field data, as
   well as any formulation which admits a sensitivity matrix with the
   required structure.},

Abstract = {The automatic and real-time recognition of the user's emotional state is
   a feature that can provide benefits for different areas of
   Human-Computer Interaction. The scientific literature presents several
   techniques that can be used to recognize the user's emotional state.
   However, many techniques involve the use of sensors that can result in
   financial costs and cause discomfort to the user. In this scenario, the
   recognition of the emotional state through the analysis of facial
   expressions presents itself as a useful and practical approach, since it
   does not involve the use of sensors attached to the user's body and
   executed in different types of devices. Despite these advantages,
   software that allow the analysis of facial expressions for free are
   still incipient, and performance evaluation of this type of software
   usually is not available. In order to contribute to this context and
   assist researchers who need this type of software, this study presents a
   comparative analysis of two open-source emotion recognition software
   ({''}CLMTrackr{''} and ``Face-api.js{''}) simulating different
   environmental conditions related to lighting and distance. Considering
   images from two datasets, we generate 8675 videos simulating 25
   different environmental conditions. Our results indicate that the
   environmental conditions did not cause major impacts on the accuracy of
   the software, and CLMTrackr and Face-api.js, presented, respectively,
   28\% and 64\% of average accuracy.},

Abstract = {This paper explores the application of functional data analysis (FDA) as
   a means to study the dynamics of software evolution in the open source
   context. Several challenges in analyzing the data from software projects
   are discussed, an approach to overcoming those challenges is described,
   and preliminary results from the analysis of a sample of open source
   software (OSS) projects are provided. The results demonstrate the
   utility of FDA for uncovering and categorizing multiple distinct
   patterns of evolution in the complexity of OSS projects. These results
   are promising in that they demonstrate some patterns in which the
   complexity of software decreased as the software grew in size, a
   particularly novel result. The paper reports preliminary explorations of
   factors that may be associated with decreasing complexity patterns in
   these projects. The paper concludes by describing several next steps for
   this research project as well as some questions for which more
   sophisticated analytical techniques may be needed.},

Abstract = {Continuous monitoring of environmental parameters provides farmers with
   useful information, which can improve the quality and productivity of
   crops grown in greenhouses. The objective of this study was to develop a
   greenhouse environment measurement system using a low-cost
   microcontroller with open-source software. Greenhouse environment
   parameters measured were air temperature, relative humidity, and carbon
   dioxide (CO2) concentration. The ranges of the temperature, relative
   humidity, and CO2 concentration were -40 to 120 degrees C, 0 to 100\%,
   and 0 to 10,000 ppm, respectively. A 128 x 64 graphic LCD display was
   used for real-time monitoring of the greenhouse environments. An Arduino
   Uno R3 consisted of a USB interface for communicating with a computer, 6
   analog inputs, and 14 digital input/output pins. A temperature/relative
   humidity sensor was connected to digital pins 2 and 3. A CO2 sensor was
   connected to digital pins 12 and 13. The LCD was connected to digital
   pin 1 (TX). The sketches were programmed with the Arduino Software
   (IDE). A measurement system including the Arduino board, sensors, and
   accessories was developed (totaling \$244). Data for the environmental
   parameters in a venlo-type greenhouse were obtained using this system
   without any problems. We expect that the low-cost microcontroller using
   open-source software can be used for monitoring the environments of
   plastic greenhouses in Korea.},

Abstract = {As reported by Kevin Crowston and co-authors in a recent paper, free
   open source software is a very important social phenomenon that involves
   nearly one million programmers, a myriad of software development firms,
   millions of users, and its financial impact is huge since for instance
   the cost of recreating available free software is estimated in tens of
   billions of euros. Free open source software projects generally have one
   mailing list for developers and another one for users. This large number
   of mailing lists changes constantly and shows a great variety with
   respect to membership and topics covered. This makes them very difficult
   to monitor. One way of overcoming this Big Data Challenge is to identify
   some easily computable global indicators that can be used for instance
   to detect important events. We illustrate this approach here by making a
   social network analysis and comparison of developers' and users' mailing
   lists of four free open source software projects: CentOS, GnuPG, Mailman
   and Samba. We show that these mailing lists have some common
   characteristics : the number of messages, the time durations and the
   interlink times can be fitted using power and lognormal laws with
   suitable scales and parameters; for the interlink time, the analysis is
   done using the temporal delta density inspired by the delta density
   introduced by Viard and Latapy. This similarity between the
   characteristics of mailing lists also applies to the structure of
   dominant groups. For the time evolution of the number of messages, GnuPG
   exhibits a particular behavior. The interpretation of the different
   parameters gives very interesting insights into the membership and the
   type of topics covered by the mailing lists. The analysis carried out
   here and similar studies cited in this paper can therefore be considered
   as a first step towards the designing of building blocks for monitoring
   mailing lists.},

   challenges the conventional relationship between end users themselves

   findings will shed some light on the social aspects of FLOSS-based

Journal = {SN APPLIED SCIENCES},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {4},
Number = {9},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Recently, the open source software (OSS) reliability has become one of
   hot issues. Owing to the uncertainty and complexity of OSS development,
   testing and debugging environments, OSS are completed dynamically. When
   detected faults are removed for OSS, they are likely to introduce new
   faults. Moreover, under the different OSS debugging environments, fault
   introduction will show different changes. For example, the fault
   introduction rate shows a decrease change, or increasing first and then
   decreasing change over time. Considering the complex and dynamic changes
   in fault introduction, an OSS reliability model that fault introduction
   obeys a generalized inflection S-shaped distribution is proposed in this
   paper. Experimental results indicate that the fitting and predictive
   performance of the proposed model is good. The established model in this
   paper can adapt the dynamical and complicated changes of fault
   introduction during OSS debugging. Moreover, the established model can
   accurately forecast the number of remaining faults in OSS, and assist
   developers to evaluate the actual OSS reliability.},

Volume = {32},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) adoption in public administrations around the
   world has been uneven. Despite the substantive economic and
   efficiency-related implications of OSS adoption, there is surprisingly
   little research into the determinants of the diffusion of OSS across
   public sector jurisdictions. In this article we explore the variation in
   OSS adoption among Dutch local administrations. The Dutch central
   government adopted a policy to stimulate the use of OSS in the public
   sector, but the non-mandatory character of the policy resulted in great
   differences in the degree of adoption of OSS at the local level. Using
   data from a new survey of municipalities in the Netherlands and
   proportional odds statistical models to analyze the data, we show that
   the degree of OSS adoption crucially depends on the presence of boundary
   spanners and political commitment within the local government On the
   other hand, oft-suspected factors like financial stress and jurisdiction
   size have no discernible effects. Our findings have implications for
   understanding the spread of OSS in the public sector and for public
   policies designed to encourage OSS diffusion. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc All

Title = {PING-Mapper: Open-Source Software for Automated Benthic Imaging and
   Mapping Using Recreation-Grade Sonar},
Journal = {EARTH AND SPACE SCIENCE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {9},
Number = {9},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {The characterization of benthic habitats is essential for aquatic
   ecosystem science and management, but is frequently limited by waterbody
   visibility and depth. Recreation-grade side-scan sonar systems are
   increasingly used to aid scientific inquiries in aquatic environments
   due to their relative low-cost, ease of operation, low-weight, and ease
   of mounting on a variety of vessels. However, existing procedures and
   software for post-processing these data are either limited, closed
   source, or fail on data from new sonar models, limiting the development
   of reproducible workflows. Here, we present PING-Mapper, an open-source
   and freely available side-scan sonar post-processing toolset for
   processing and mapping sonar recordings from popular Humminbird
   instruments. The modular software automatically: (a) decodes sonar
   recordings from any Humminbird system, (b) exports ping attributes from
   every sonar channel, (c) uses sonar sensor depth for water column
   removal, and (d) exports sonogram tiles and georectified mosaics. Sonar
   channels are processed in parallel for quick decoding and metadata
   extraction. Major processing wokflows, including georectification and
   image export, are optimized to scale with computing resources. The
   software has been extensively tested using data from several rivers of
   varying character and distribution of depths, but could also be used in
   estuarine and lacustrine environments. Usage of PING-Mapper is
   illustrated in three case studies focused on mapping large woody debris,
   bathymetric mapping, and visual interpretation and mapping of substrates
   for selected reaches of the Pearl and Pascagoula river systems in
   Mississippi.
   Plain Language Summary Side-scan sonar instruments provide a way to
   survey and visualize the bottom of rivers, lakes, or oceans. Since the
   early 2000s, companies catering predominantly to anglers have
   manufactured recreation-grade side-scan sonar systems to aid fishermen
   in locating fish and identifying potential hazards. Scientists seeking
   to understand and manage aquatic habitats used these systems to create
   grayscale images of water bottoms because they are inexpensive, easy to
   operate, and require minimal mounting equipment on the boat. Software
   has been created by companies to process these data, but the underlying
   processing workflow and computer code are not publicly available, making
   it difficult to reproduce and compare results across studies. Other
   publicly available approaches and software are either outdated, not
   maintained, or not free. That is why we made PING-Mapper, a freely
   available software developed in an increasingly popular programming
   language called Python. We designed the software to work on any computer
   to export the data sets quickly and efficiently. The scientific use of
   exported data sets is demonstrated with three case studies focused on
   locating and mapping targets (specifically large trees and branches),
   creating depth maps, and visually discerning the distributions of common
   substrates, such as sand and cobble.},

Abstract = {Nowadays, small and medium-sized enterprises (further SME) look for ways
   to overcome pressing social problems. An open-software-based application
   can be considered a powerful tool for this task, because of
   functionalities such as data management, BI operation, and efficient
   channels of communication. A review of literature shows that there is a
   shortage of studies concerning connections between usage of Free/Libre
   or Open Source Software (further FLOSS) and implementing Social
   Innovation (SI). The aim of this research is to investigate how the use
   of FLOSS relates to the ability of SMEs to implement SI. The author aims
   to underline key areas in which FLOSS supported implementation of SI. A
   set of recommendations for future initiatives is created based on the
   experience of successful implementation. Based on a review of
   literature, the author created a set of hypotheses which are validated
   by the in-depth surveys with three companies in the SME sector. The
   article structure is as follows: first the author presents literature
   findings concerning the subject, and next the areas of the model and
   survey answers. Finally, the author performs a critical review of the
   model, confirming that open software can stimulate the process of
   developing social innovation in SMEs, especially in cost reduction,
   flexibility, and community support.},

   existing features modification results in the source code complexity.
   The proposed model quantifies the complexity in the source code using
   the Shannon entropy measure. In addition, the issues fixing growth
   behavior is viewed as a function of continuation time of the software in
   the field environment and amount of uncertainty or complexity present in
   the source code. Therefore, a two-dimensional function called
   Cobb-Douglas production function is applied to model the intensity
   function of the issues fixing rate. Furthermore, the rate of fixing the
   different issue types is considered variable that may alter after
   certain time points. Thus, this study incorporates the concept of
   multiple change-points to predict and assess the fixing behavior of
   issues in the software system. The performance of the proposed model is
   validated by fitting the proposed model to the actual issues data of
   three open-source projects. Findings of the data analysis exhibit
   excellent prediction and estimation capability of the model.},

Title = {Competition Among Proprietary and Open-Source Software Firms: The Role
   of Licensing in Strategic Contribution},
Journal = {MANAGEMENT SCIENCE},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {67},
Number = {5},
Pages = {3041-3066},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {In enterprise software markets, firms are increasingly using
   services-based business models built on open-source software (OSS) to
   compete with established, proprietary software firms. Because
   third-party firms can also strategically contribute to OSS and compete
   in the services market, the nature of competition between OSS
   constituents and proprietary software firms can be complex. Moreover,
   their incentives are likely influenced by the licensing schemes that
   govern OSS. We study a three-player game and examine how open-source
   licensing affects competition among an open-source originator, an
   open-source contributor, and a proprietor competing in an enterprise
   software market. In this regard, we examine (1) how quality investments
   and prices are endogenously determined in equilibrium, (2) how license
   restrictiveness impacts equilibrium investments and the quality of
   offerings, and (3) how license restrictiveness affects consumer surplus
   and social welfare. Although some in the open-source community often
   advocate restrictive licenses such as theGNUGeneral Public License
   because it is not always in the best interest of the originator for the
   contributor to invest greater development effort, such licensing can
   actually be detrimental to both consumer surplus and social welfare when
   it exacerbates this incentive conflict. We find such an outcome in
   markets characterized by software providers with similar development
   capabilities yet cast in favor of the proprietor. In contrast, when
   these capabilities either become more dispersed or remain similar but
   tilt in favor of open source, a more restrictive license instead
   encourages greater effort from the OSS contributor, leads to higher OSS
   quality, and provides a larger societal benefit.},

Abstract = {The authors developed a non-proprietary web-browser based open-source

   concept of three-dimensional data cubes that facilitate query in space,
   time, and variable dimension(s) without the requirement for a database
   system. Using a configuration file, users can define data sources as
   local file system resources and or external data sources (e.g., online
   data services). This capability makes Hydrovise a flexible and portable
   solution where users can share their hydrologic data in an interactive
   web environment. This paper provides the software description with four

Abstract = {Data centre equipment are very sensitive and susceptible to
   environmental damage from excessive heat. Power outages can lead to
   overheated servers in a matter of minutes. It is therefore mandatory to
   monitor the ambient temperature of the data centre or network room
   continuously and take necessary action if temperature exceeds the
   threshold limit. Manual 24x7 monitoring requires additional man power
   and is not an efficient approach. The paper presents an effective and
   cost efficient mechanism to automate this process using open source
   software's and tools. We have utilized the inbuilt temperature sensing
   capabilities of the managed network switches to build such a system.
   Thus the system has been designed without the use of additional
   temperature monitoring sensors. The system has been implemented in our
   organization and has helped in reducing the failure rate of the network
   switches from 2\% to 0\%, thus helping in maintaining 99.98\% uptime of
   the network.},

   Method: We used the case study research method to investigate technique
   application and participation in a project. To do this, we participated
   as volunteers in the HistoryCal project.
   Results: We identified adverse conditions that were an obstacle to
   technique application (like it was not easy to recruit OSS users to
   participate) and modified the technique to make it applicable.
   Conclusion: We conclude that these changes were helpful for applying the
   technique using web artifacts like blogs.},

Title = {Changes in free and open source software licenses: managerial
   interventions and variations on project attractiveness},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF INTERNET SERVICES AND APPLICATIONS},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {8},
Month = {AUG 7},
Abstract = {The license adopted by an open source software is associated with its
   success in terms of attractiveness and maintenance of an active
   ecosystem of users, bug reporters, developers, and sponsors because what
   can and cannot be done with the software and its derivatives in terms of
   improvement and market distribution depends on legal terms there
   specified. By knowing this licensing effect through scientific
   publications and their experience, project managers became able to act
   strategically, loosening up the restrictions associated with their
   source code due to sponsor interests, for example; or the contrary,
   tightening restrictions up to guarantee source code openness, adhering
   to the ``forever free{''} strategy. But, have project managers behaved
   strategically like that, changing their projects license? Up to this
   paper, we did not know if and what types of changes in these legal
   allowances project managers have made and, more importantly, whether
   such managerial interventions are associated with variations in
   intervened project attractiveness (i.e., related to their numbers of web
   hits, downloads and members). This paper accomplishes these two goals
   and demonstrates that: 1) managers of free and open source software
   projects do change the distribution rights of their source code through
   a change in the (group of) license(s) adopted; and 2) variations in
   attractiveness are associated with the strategic choice of a licensing
   schema. To reach these conclusions, a unique dataset of open source
   projects that have changed license was assembled in a comparative form,
   analyzing intervened projects over its monthly periods of different
   licenses. Based on a sample of more than 3500 active projects over 44
   months obtained from the FLOSSmole repository of Sourceforge.net, 756
   projects that had changed their source code distribution allowances and
   restrictions were identified and analyzed. A dataset on these projects'
   type of changes was assembled to enable a descriptive and exploratory
   analysis of the types of license interventions observed over a period of
   almost four years anchored on projects' attractiveness. More than 35
   types of interventions were detected. The results indicate that
   variations in attractiveness after a license intervention are not
   symmetric; that is, if a change from license schema A to B is beneficial
   to attractiveness, a change from B to A is not necessarily prejudicial.
   This and other interesting findings are discussed in detail. In general,
   the results here reported support the current literature knowledge that
   the restrictions imposed by the license on the source code distribution
   are associated with market success vis-a-vis project attractiveness, but
   they also suggest that the state-of-the-science is superficial in terms
   of what is known about why these differences in attractiveness can be
   observed. The complexity of the results indicates to free software
   managers that no licensing schema should be seen as the right one, and
   its choice should be carefully made, considering project strategic goals
   as perceived relevant to stakeholders of the application and its
   production. These conclusions create awareness of several limitations of
   our current knowledge, which are discussed along with guidelines to
   understand them deeper in future research endeavors.},

Abstract = {Open development has emerged as a method for creating versatile and
   complex products through free collaboration of individuals. This free
   collaboration gathers globally distributed teams. Similarly, it is
   common today to view businesses and other human organisations as
   ecosystems, where several participating companies and organisations
   cooperate and compete together. As an example, Free/Libre Open Source
   Software ( FLOSS) development is one area where community driven
   development provides a plausible platform for both development of
   products and establishing a software ecosystem where a set of businesses
   contribute their own innovations. Equally, open and informal learning
   environments and open innovation platforms are also gaining ground.
   While such initiatives are not limited to any specific area, they
   typically offer a technological, legal, social, and economic framework
   for development, relying always on people as open development would not
   exist without the active participation of them. This paper explores the
   participation of master students in FLOSS projects, while merging two
   different settings of learning: formal and open/informal education.},

Abstract = {Information technology governance is necessary for the IT area to
   maintain its alignment with the organizational strategy. Appropriate
   management tools in free software, in addition to reducing the necessary
   investments in software, enable the development of new functionalities
   and also provide for local technological development. An association is
   made between free software and social technology, due to their mutual
   characteristics, in which technology is developed and shared by the
   community, providing autonomy and independence. The objective is to
   raise knowledge and application of information technology governance
   using free tools. To achieve this goal, a literature review on IT
   governance and free software was carried out, with a focus on
   Gestionnaire Libre de Parc Informatique (GLPI). Then, a research with
   exploratory-descriptive objective, qualitative-quantitative approach,
   with field research procedures and case study was carried out. Data were
   obtained through the application of a questionnaire, being the case unit
   the Federal Institute of Sao Paulo. It was applied as analysis method:
   content analysis, comparative analysis and, finally, a descriptive
   analysis. As a result, it was observed that governance brings the
   proposal of transparency in the use of technologies, human resources and
   actions performed in society, by society and for society. It is
   concluded that the results achieved can contribute to expand the
   knowledge about the application of information technology governance
   practices and the use of free software in that institution and other
   related institutions, improvement in the services rendered to the

Abstract = {Knowledge sharing is a key aspect for a community of practice. Free
   software communities can be considered communities of practice, since
   they aggregate people interested in donating and collecting, that is,
   sharing knowledge about free software. According to the literature, the
   donation and collection of knowledge are motivated by different factors
   and these motivations may vary depending on the context. Free software
   communities may include members from different countries and
   backgrounds, which can make keeping such communities active and vigorous
   a challenge. This study aims to identify the motivations for knowledge
   sharing behaviour that are susceptible to leadership actions in free
   software communities. The research was carried out in three phases.
   First, a qualitative study involving twenty semi-structured interviews
   was conducted among members of a free software community, who suggested
   sixteen motivations for knowledge sharing behaviour. These motivations
   were then organized into three groups, each with a specific focus: three
   motivations only influence knowledge collection and focus on the
   knowledge itself; nine motivations only influence knowledge donation and
   focus on the individual; and four motivations influence both knowledge
   collection and knowledge donation, and focus on the relationships among
   individuals. After that, based on the groups of motivation identified in
   the previous phase, five leaders from different communities of practice
   were interviewed with the aim of identifying the main motivations that
   would be susceptible to their actions, which were knowledge quality,
   ease of access to knowledge, recognition, community support for
   knowledge sharing, learning and professional reasons. Finally, these six
   main motivations indicated by the leaders were tested in a quantitative
   phase involving 260 members of different free software communities. The
   results show that learning and ease of access to knowledge influence
   knowledge collection; recognition, community support for knowledge
   sharing and knowledge collection influence knowledge donation; and
   professional reasons influence both knowledge collection and knowledge
   donation in the context of free software communities.},

Abstract = {One of the aspects of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) which may act
   as a significant deterrent to its adoption, is the method used to
   collaboratively develop the software and provide support through the use
   of communities. It is not until this method is examined more closely
   that its many advantages can be realised. The method can, however, seem
   very disorgamsed especially when compared with traditional proprietary
   development styles. A key difference between these two development
   approaches lies in the management of projects, and perhaps as a
   consequence, in the level of formality in the community environment.
   This paper presents the results of empirical survey research
   investigating FOSS community participants' views on the level of
   formality in FOSS, and the way in which this affects both development
   and support provision activities. The paper then concludes by analysing
   what can be learnt from the participant's views.},

Abstract = {Today, different actors, such as developers, supporters, companies or
   public entities, contribute in different ways to non-profit open source
   software projects. The majority of them is contributing for individual
   and personal reasons, aiming to create (intangible) value that is
   important to themselves. Besides that, users are today often not
   directly involved in the development process. This results in the need
   to have a software and management structure that actively aligns these
   different actors, pays respect to their needs, and involves them in the
   software creation process. We present the case of Catrobat and how
   different influences, e.g., by contributors, users, or stakeholders,
   affect the project and its development. We outline the challenges that
   occur in practice when it comes to an open software project situated in
   a complex ecosystem of different actors and highlight the requirements
   on such a project and how they are encountered in the presented case.},

Abstract = {Network structures of OSS (Open Source Software) development communities

   been applied to the repositories of OSS communities. However, structure
   analysis of OSS development community evolution has not been

   Model), a new class of graph models to define the OSS development
   community. Based on the SCGM, we propose a structural analysis method of
   OSS development community evolution. To automate the analysis method, a
   prototype system is implemented with the graph DB Neo4j. We applied the
   proposed method and prototype system to four major machine learning OSS
   communities, Caffe, Chainer, Jubatus, and Tensorflow, for over five
   years on GitHub. From the analysis, we discovered three novel
   characteristics of community evolution, 1) three layered community
   evolution models consisting of the Core, Semi-core and Non-core members,
   2) three developer growth patterns in terms of contribution behavior,
   and 3) evolutional changes according to the interaction among
   developers, which is a major contribution of this work. Based on the
   experiments, we demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the
   proposed method.},

Abstract = {One of the primary factors that encourage developers to contribute to
   open source software (OSS) projects is the collaborative nature of OSS
   development. However, the collaborative structure of these communities
   largely remains unclear, partly due to the enormous scale of data to be
   gathered, processed, and analyzed.
   In this work, we utilize the World Of Code dataset, which contains
   commit activity data for millions of OSS projects, to build
   collaboration networks for ten popular programming language ecosystems,
   containing in total over 290M commits across over 18M projects. We build
   a collaboration graph representation for each language ecosystem, having
   authors and projects as nodes, which enables various forms of social
   network analysis on the scale of language ecosystems. Moreover, we
   capture the information on the ecosystems' evolution by slicing each
   network into 30 historical snapshots. Additionally, we calculate
   multiple collaboration metrics that characterise the ecosystems' states.
   We make the resulting dataset publicly available\% including the
   constructed graphs and the pipeline enabling the analysis of more
   ecosystems.},

Abstract = {Game engines (GEs) constitute a powerful platform for visualizing real
   geographies in immersive virtual space, and in the last two years,
   remarkable strides have been made by the leading providers of Geographic
   Information System (GIS) software and services, including Esri and
   Cesium, toward integrating their products in GEs. Notwithstanding the
   strengths of GEs, they lack support for many common GIS file formats,
   and there exist only limited georeferencing possibilities. Visualizing
   large-scale geolocations involves high authoring costs, and the
   shortcomings of GEs further complicate the workflow. In this paper, we
   present a workflow and its implementation for creating large immersive
   virtual environments that accurately represent real-world urban areas.
   The benefits of the presented development are threefold. First, it makes
   the process more efficient by automating multiple steps and
   incorporating a large portion of the workflow inside the GE. Second, it
   facilitates an interactive framework by allowing the developer to
   efficiently extend the scene components with functionalities and
   interactions. Third, it entirely relies on open-source software and
   data, making it suitable for many non-commercial domains. To showcase
   the effectiveness of the tool, we created a virtual replica of an actual
   city consisting of the terrain, the streets, and the buildings.},

   operation and derelict, all partially submerged and/or water-coated
   invisible to navigation poles and other elements such as illegal fishing
   nets and marine litter on the seabed up to about 2 m deep, have been
   identified and mapped. The creation of an instant, high-precision

   Open-Source Software Implementation},
Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {11},
Pages = {101727-101749},
Abstract = {The Smart Factory has been a concept studied during the last decade that
   has not been standardized yet; for this reason, the academy and industry
   have developed a wide variety of new architectures that describe the
   integration of elements for digitization and interconnection. The
   present research aims to introduce a new architecture proposal for
   migrating traditional (automation) to smart (digitization) factories,
   implemented through open-source software. The proposed architecture is
   integrated, for the first time, by the interconnection of six main
   elements: cyber-physical systems, edge computing, artificial
   intelligence, cloud computing, data analytics, and cybersecurity; the
   research describes in detail their definitions, sub-elements, the
   interconnection between elements, and the minimum requirements for
   implementation. The test of the proposed smart factory was done through
   a scale smart factory pilot testing for a pick and place process, where
   the assembly of wood pieces from the geometric Tangram's puzzle was
   required; for this reason, the pilot testing includes a
   six-degree-of-freedom robot arm, a conveyor, a vision system, and a
   storage area. The case study conducted in this research allowed the
   assembly of four puzzles (fish, house, rocket, and swan) that were
   assembled with four different batches of pieces. The implementation
   allowed testing flexibility and adaptability. The final assembly reports
   included the status of assembly, the number of pieces assembled, the
   number of pieces stored, the assembly sequence, and the assembly time.
   Similarly, the development of the SCADA system allowed asset control as
   well as asset monitoring. The KPIs of the assembly process measured
   productivity (OTD) and time tracking (ATCT and TA) of the 16 tests,
   founding that the interconnection and digitization of the scale
   manufacturing cell were fully integrated and allowed repeatability; the
   proposed SF architecture represents an alternative for the small and
   medium automated factories to achieve interconnection and digitization,
   and it is ready to be tested in a more complex scenario.},

   examples of software reliability assessment based on neural network and

   shedding are compared to available experimental data, and validated
   using image processing to find percentage of similarities. The sheet
   cavity frequency of 7.752 Hz was obtained based on cavitation evolution
   and pressure fluctuations. The study gives relevant information for CFD

Abstract = {Characterizing ephemeral karstic wetlands through hydrological modelling
   is key for sustainable protection of their ecosystems and to understand
   and mitigate the impact of flooding events. UISCEmod is a new
   open-source software for modelling water level time series, focused on
   ephemeral karstic wetlands, that requires minimal input information.
   UISCEmod contains both experimental and lumped hydrological models, and
   the calibration process is automated following a Bayesian approach. The
   main outputs of UISCEmod include volume, stage, inflow and outflow model
   time series, calibrated model parameters, and the associated
   uncertainties. UISCEmod was evaluated at 16 representative sites in
   Ireland obtaining Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) and Kling-Gupta
   Efficiency (KGE) above 0.85 for both stage and volume time series for
   most of the sites, showing its potential for covering the need for a
   simple, pragmatic, and flexible framework for modelling water levels in
   ephemeral karstic wetlands with relatively limited input data
   requirements.},

Journal = {NANOMATERIALS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {12},

Abstract = {The study of particle transport in different environments plays an
   essential role in understanding interactions with humans and other
   living organisms. Importantly, obtained data can be directly used for
   multiple applications in fields such as fundamental biology, toxicology,
   or medicine. Particle movement in biorelevant media can be readily
   monitored using microscopy and converted into time-resolved trajectories
   using freely available tracking software. However, translation into
   tangible and meaningful parameters is time consuming and not always
   intuitive. We developed new software-MPTHub-as an open-access,
   standalone, user-friendly tool for the rapid and reliable analysis of
   particle trajectories extracted from video microscopy. The software was
   programmed using Python and allowed to import and analyze trajectory
   data, as well as to export relevant data such as individual and ensemble
   time-averaged mean square displacements and effective diffusivity, and
   anomalous transport exponent. Data processing was reliable, fast (total
   processing time of less than 10 s), and required minimal memory
   resources (up to a maximum of around 150 MB in random access memory).
   Demonstration of software applicability was conducted by studying the
   transport of different polystyrene nanoparticles (100-200 nm) in mucus
   surrogates. Overall, MPTHub represents a freely available software tool
   that can be used even by inexperienced users for studying the transport
   of particles in biorelevant media.},

Abstract = {Development of models and dedicated numerical methods for dynamics in
   fractured rocks is an active research field, with research moving
   towards increasingly advanced process couplings and complex fracture
   networks. The inclusion of coupled processes in simulation models is
   challenged by the high aspect ratio of the fractures, the complex
   geometry of fracture networks, and the crucial impact of processes that
   completely change characteristics on the fracture-rock interface. This
   paper provides a general discussion of design principles for introducing
   fractures in simulators, and defines a framework for integrated
   modeling, discretization, and computer implementation. The framework is
   implemented in the open-source simulation software PorePy, which can
   serve as a flexible prototyping tool for multiphysics problems in
   fractured rocks. Based on a representation of the fractures and their
   intersections as lower-dimensional objects, we discuss data structures
   for mixed-dimensional grids, formulation of multiphysics problems, and
   discretizations that utilize existing software. We further present
   aPythonimplementation of these concepts in the PorePy open-source
   software tool, which is aimed at coupled simulation of flow and
   transport in three-dimensional fractured reservoirs as well as
   deformation of fractures and the reservoir in general. We present
   validation by benchmarks for flow, poroelasticity, and fracture
   deformation in porous media. The flexibility of the framework is then
   illustrated by simulations of non-linearly coupled flow and transport
   and of injection-driven deformation of fractures. All results can be
   reproduced by openly available simulation scripts.},

   The past 15 years have seen vast improvements in the collection,

   Suite for Automated Global Electronic bioSurveillance (SAGES) is a
   collection of modular, open-source software tools designed to meet the
   challenges of electronic disease surveillance in resource-limited

   surveillance applications or en masse for an end-to-end biosurveillance
   capability. This flexibility allows for the development of an
   inexpensive, customized, and sustainable disease surveillance system.
   The ability to rapidly assess anomalous disease activity may lead to

Abstract = {As open source software products have evolved over time to satisfy a
   variety of demands from increasing users, they have become large and
   complex in general. Open source developers often face with challenges in
   fixing a considerable amount of bugs which are reported into a bug
   tracking system on a daily basis. As a result, he mean time to resolve
   bugs has been protracted in these days. In order to reduce the mean time
   to resolve bugs, managers/leaders of open source projects need to
   identify and understand the bottleneck of a bug modification process in
   their own projects. In this paper, we propose an analysis method which
   represents a bug modification process using a bug tracking system as a
   state transition diagram and then calculates the amount of time required
   to transit between states. We have conducted a case study using Firefox
   and Apache project data to confirm the usefulness of the analysis
   method. From the results of the case study, we have found that the
   method helped to reveal that both of the projects took a lot of time to
   verify results of bug modifications by developers.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) projects are contingent on volunteer
   developers and voluntary contributions from users, accordingly,
   traditional performance measures used for software projects, like being
   on time and budget, and satisfying specifications, may not be relevant
   for such projects. Although researchers have studied some predictors of
   OSS project performance, there is a lack of empirical work that studies
   the impact of project capabilities on the performance of OSS projects.
   Therefore, this paper studies project capabilities as potential
   predictors of OSS project performance. The data, gathered from 607 OSS
   projects over time (in two snap-shots), were consistent with Dynamic
   Capability Theory (DCT). In other words, the results showed that in
   order to achieve higher project performance, OSS projects need to have
   strong capabilities in terms of proactive and efficient defect-removal
   as well as proactive and efficient functionality-enhancement. The
   implications of these results for the OSS research community are
   discussed, followed by recommendations for OSS practitioners. (C) 2011

Abstract = {Background: Repair of complete atrioventricular canal (CAVC) is often
   complicated by residual left atrioven-tricular valve regurgitation. The
   structure of the mitral and tricuspid valves in biventricular hearts has
   previously been shown to be associated with valve dysfunction. However,
   the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the entire unrepaired CAVC valve
   has not been quantified. Understanding the 3D structure of the CAVC may
   inform optimized repair.Methods: Novel open-source work flows were
   created in SlicerHeart for the modeling and quantification of CAVC
   valves on the basis of 3D echocardiographic images. These methods were
   applied to model the annulus, leaflets, and papillary muscle (PM)
   structure of 35 patients (29 with trisomy 21) with CAVC using trans
   -thoracic 3D echocardiography. The mean leaflet and annular shapes were
   calculated and visualized using shape analysis. Metrics of the complete
   native CAVC valve structure were compared with those of normal mitral
   valves using the Mann-Whitney U test. Associations between CAVC
   structure and atrioventricular valve regurgitation were
   analyzed.Results: CAVC leaflet metrics varied throughout systole.
   Compared with normal mitral valves, the left CAVC PMs were more acutely
   angled in relation to the annular plane (P < .001). In addition, the
   anterolateral PM was laterally and inferiorly rotated in CAVC, while the
   posteromedial PM was more superiorly and laterally rotated, relative to
   normal mitral valves (P < .001). Lower native CAVC atrioventricular
   valve annular height and annular height-to-valve width ratio before
   repair were both associated with moderate or greater left
   atrio-ventricular valve regurgitation after repair (P <
   .01).Conclusions: It is feasible to model and quantify 3D CAVC structure
   using 3D echocardiographic images. The results demonstrate significant
   variation in CAVC structure across the cohort and differences in
   annular, leaflet, and PM structure compared with the mitral valve. These
   tools may be used in future studies to catalyze future research intended
   to identify structural associations of valve dysfunction and to optimize
   repair in this vulnerable and complex population. (J Am Soc Echocardiogr

Abstract = {Background: Rhinoplasty is one of the most frequent aesthetic surgeries;
   the procedure can be challenging for inexperienced surgeons, and
   positive outcomes depend on good communication with the patient, proper
   planning, and precise execution. Three-dimensional (3D) technology has
   emerged to address these issues, but specific software for 3D planning
   tends to be expensive.
   Objectives: This study presents a simple, low-cost method for 3D
   simulation to plan rhinoplasty.
   Methods: This preliminary report describes 3D rhinoplasty planning in a
   series of 3 cases employing free software and an add-on especially
   developed for rhinoplasty (Blender and RhinOnBlender, respectively). The
   photogrammetry protocol, which can be performed easily with a
   smartphone, is described in detail along with all the steps in 3D
   planning.
   Results: The software and add-on automated the process, making the tool
   environment accessible to surgeons who are not familiar with graphic
   design software. The surgeries were uneventful in all cases, and the
   patients were satisfied with the outcomes.
   Conclusions: 3D graphic technology has provided significant advances in
   health research, improvement, and teaching for surgeons and
   communication between surgeons and patients. Free open-source software
   and add-ons are excellent options that offer proven utility,
   affordability, and ease of utilization to healthcare providers.},

Abstract = {Software maintainability is measured as the ease with which the existing
   software could be modified and often predicted during the development
   stage on the basis of some measurable design characteristics.
   Controlling the software maintainability and understandability of any
   open source software (OSS) system is extremely challenging because it is
   written and constantly modified by the developers located all over the
   world. The current study analyzes the effectiveness of machine learning
   (ML) techniques for the maintainability prediction of OSS systems. In
   this work large-scale empirical comparisons of thirteen classifiers over
   seven open source datasets were conducted followed by extensive
   statistical tests and post hoc analysis to establish the confidence on
   the performance of one ML technique over another. The results show two
   important findings: firstly, we observed that overall good prediction
   accuracy is achieved by almost all ML techniques; secondly the
   prediction models using genetically adaptive learning ML technique and
   group method of data handling (GMDH) technique perform better than the
   other ML techniques in the context of OSS systems. The outcome of this
   investigation would be helpful for developers in order to predict
   maintenance behavior of the software at the earlier stages of software
   development lifecycle (SDLC). Accordingly, they can optimize their
   resource allocations, prioritize maintenance tasks and produce
   high-quality low maintenance software systems. Additionally, it also has
   numerous other applications such as schedule planning, cost estimation,
   quality assurance testing, software debugging, budget preparation, and
   software performance optimization.},

Title = {Flourish or Perish? The Impact of Technological Acquisitions on
   Contributions to Open-Source Software},
Journal = {INFORMATION SYSTEMS RESEARCH},
Year = {2021},
Month = {2021 DEC 22},
Abstract = {This study examines the impact of technological acquisitions on
   contributions to firm-sponsored community-based open-source software
   (OSS). We distinguish between internal contributors affiliated with
   target firms and external contributors from the community, and examine
   how they respond to technological acquisitions differently.
   Theoretically, we examine how technological acquisition influences
   contributors' uncertainty about project quality through a signaling
   effect and influences their uncertainty about project continuity through
   potential resource combination. We connect uncertainties with
   contributors' motivations to theorize their responses to acquisitions.
   Empirically, we find that external contributors contribute more actively
   to both target firms' sponsored projects and other projects in the OSS
   community after acquisitions, which contrast with the adverse effects of
   acquisitions observed in traditional corporate innovation. Although
   internal contributors reduce contributions to target firms' sponsored
   projects after acquisitions, they increase contributions to other OSS
   projects in the community. We also find that the acquirer's OSS
   experience and the project similarity between the acquirer and the
   target drive both external and internal contributors to shift their
   development efforts to the acquirer's projects and other projects in the
   OSS community. By examining these effort shifts in OSS contributions,
   our study generates unique theoretical insights about the impacts of
   technological acquisitions in the OSS context and important practical
   implications for acquirers, target firms, and the general OSS community.},

Title = {Exploring the communication functions of comments during bug fixing in
   Open Source Software projects},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {136},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Context: Bug fixing is a frequent and important task in Open Source
   Software (OSS) development and involves the communication of messages,
   which can serve for multiple purposes and affect the efficiency and
   effectiveness of corrective software activities.
   Objective: This work is aimed at studying the communication functions of
   bug comments and their associations with fast and complete bug fixing in
   OSS development.
   Method: Over 500K comments and 89K bugs of 100 OSS projects were
   extracted from three Issue Tracking Systems. Six thousand comments were
   manually tagged to create a corpus of communication functions. The
   extracted comments were automatically tagged using machine learning
   algorithms and the corpus of communication functions. Statistical and
   correlation analyses were performed and the most frequent comments
   communicated during fast and successful bug fixing were identified.
   Results: Significant differences in the distribution of comments of
   fixed and not fixed bugs were found. Variations in the distribution of
   comments of bugs with different fixing time were also found. Referential
   comments that provided objective information were found to be the most
   frequent messages. Results showed that the percentages of conative and
   emotive comments are greater when bugs are resolved without the
   requested fixes and when fixes are implemented in a long time.
   Conclusion: Associations between communication functions and bug fixing
   exist. The results of this work could be used to improve corrective
   tasks in OSS development and some other specific linguistic aspects
   should be studied in detail in OSS communities.},

   Elements Generation},
Journal = {COMPUTERS AND GEOTECHNICS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {172},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Numerical manifold method (NMM) has shown its ability to solve
   continuous and discontinuous deformation problems in a unified
   framework. However, due to the complexity of geometry description and
   the absence of a reliable 3D contact algorithm, the development of
   3D-NMM still has a long-time challenge. In this study, an opensource
   software named MEG3D to generate the numerical model for 3D-NMM is
   developed. The MEG3D is a fast, light, and user-friendly interactive
   software to identify geometry, generate joint networks, generate
   structured finite mathematical mesh, cut blocks, and generate numerical
   manifold elements (MEs). In this software, a new C++ programming
   strategy with high modularization and good portability, and a novel data
   storage format and data structure were used. Based on the OpenGL
   library, real -time visualization and interactive interfaces were built.
   Examples containing curve block cutting, discrete fracture networks
   (DFN) model, soil-rock mixture slopes, complex shaped geometry, etc.
   have indicated that the software is robust, efficient, and
   user-friendly. This software can also generate models for the discrete
   element method (DEM), discontinuous deformation analysis (DDA), etc.
   Therefore, the MEG3D can be used as a general pre-processing program for
   3D-NMM and other blockbased numerical methods.},

   speed and content of responses to new contributors' issues as opposed to
   those of established contributors. This difference suggests that the

Title = {MYRIAM: Open-Source Software to Estimate Torque Variations Associated
   With Plate-Motion Temporal Changes},
Journal = {GEOCHEMISTRY GEOPHYSICS GEOSYSTEMS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {25},
Number = {2},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Tectonic plate motions are a prime constraint on lithosphere dynamics
   and on the torques acting upon plates. Researchers typically test
   hypotheses on the controlling torques via forward computer models, which
   allow accepting or rejecting hypotheses on the basis of the fit of
   model-output plate velocities to kinematic reconstructions. Such models
   typically require a significant amount of input information (e.g.,
   tectonic boundaries, structure of the lithosphere, lateral variations of
   rheology, among others) to appropriately model the tectonic system, and
   obtain sufficiently-realistic realizations of plate motions.
   Alternatively, the inverse problem approach takes the difference between
   the plate torque-balance at two distinct moments in time. This results
   in an equation in which (a) torques that have not varied through time
   are canceled out and (b) torques that instead have varied through time
   are linked to the resulting plate-motion change through a term that
   accounts for the plate shape and the rheology of the underlying
   asthenosphere. This approach sacrifices the capability to describe the
   different individual forces/torques acting upon a plate. Instead, it
   focuses on determining torque temporal variations, which significantly
   reduces the amount of input knowledge required. In this technical note
   we introduce MYRIAM, an open-source software that implements such an
   inverse approach. MYRIAM takes plate-motion temporal changes, and
   outputs an estimate of the torque variation required upon a plate to
   generate the input kinematic change. MYRIAM is released as an
   open-source repository hosted at GitHub, complete with source code and
   executable files for Windows and Unix-based operating systems. Plain
   Language Summary The outermost layer of the Earth, known as the
   lithosphere, is fragmented into plates that are in motion relative to
   each other. Through geological history, the motion of tectonic plates
   did not remain steady, and in fact important changes are now known to
   have occurred relatively fast, within a few million years. By virtue of
   Newton's laws of motion, these changes are all necessarily caused by the
   variation in one or more forces acting upon the plates, and therefore
   disrupt their force balance. Changing the motion of a plate is not an
   easy feat-for plates it requires overcoming the frictional resistance
   exerted by the underlying asthenosphere, a low-viscosity layer beneath
   the plates. The resulting motion change will depend on (a) the
   mechanical properties of the asthenosphere and (b) the amount of plate
   surface interacting with said asthenosphere (i.e., the basal area of the
   plate). All these considerations are taken into account by MYRIAM, an
   open-source, computationally-inexpensive software that estimates the
   force/torque variations required to produce a given change of plate
   motion.},

Journal = {ETHICS AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {16},
Number = {2},
Pages = {157-169},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Open-content communities that focus on co-creation without requirements
   for entry have to face the issue of institutional trust in contributors.
   This research investigates the various ways in which these communities
   manage this issue. It is shown that communities of open-source
   software-continue to-rely mainly on hierarchy (reserving write-access
   for higher echelons), which substitutes (the need for) trust.
   Encyclopedic communities, though, largely avoid this solution. In the
   particular case of Wikipedia, which is confronted with persistent
   vandalism, another arrangement has been pioneered instead. Trust (i.e.
   full write-access) is `backgrounded' by means of a permanent
   mobilization of Wikipedians to monitor incoming edits. Computational
   approaches have been developed for the purpose, yielding both
   sophisticated monitoring tools that are used by human patrollers, and
   bots that operate autonomously. Measures of reputation are also under
   investigation within Wikipedia; their incorporation in monitoring
   efforts, as an indicator of the trustworthiness of editors, is
   envisaged. These collective monitoring efforts are interpreted as
   focusing on avoiding possible damage being inflicted on Wikipedian
   spaces, thereby being allowed to keep the discretionary powers of
   editing intact for all users. Further, the essential differences between
   backgrounding and substituting trust are elaborated. Finally it is
   argued that the Wikipedian monitoring of new edits, especially by its
   heavy reliance on computational tools, raises a number of moral
   questions that need to be answered urgently.},

Abstract = {Background. Static analyzers can be useful to software developers in
   detecting and locating code issues and, in addition, classifying their
   nature. The main problem of static analyzers, however, is that they may
   signal too many false alarms. Objective. In this paper, we investigate
   whether code issues that are detected by SpotBugs persist in software
   code, or if they get removed. We chose SpotBugs because it is one of the
   best-known and most used static analyzers. Method. We carried out an
   empirical study on five open-source Java programs and took into account
   two versions of each of them, to check whether the issues signaled by
   SpotBugs on the older version had been removed by the time the newer
   version was released. A total of 1,006 issues were signaled by SpotBugs.
   Results. Our results show that about half of the issues signaled
   disappeared between the two versions, but the correction rate was uneven
   across projects. Issues about the correctness of software code were more
   likely to be no longer present in the newer version than other types of
   warnings. Conclusions. Further investigations are required, to
   understand why some projects appear more active than others in
   correcting SpotBugs issues, and why very few high-severity warnings were
   observed in the analyzed code. Nonetheless, the fact that about half of
   the issues flagged by SpotBugs were removed indicates that the tool is
   effective in detecting incorrect or otherwise problematic code.},

Abstract = {Software engineers are able to measure the quality of their code using a
   variety of metrics that can be derived directly from analyzing the
   source code. These internal quality metrics are valuable to engineers,
   but the organizations funding the software development effort find
   external quality metrics such as defect rates and time to develop
   features more valuable. Unfortunately, external quality metrics can only
   be calculated after costly software has been developed and deployed for
   end -users to utilize. Here, we present a method for mining data from
   freely available open source codebases written in Java to train a Random
   Forest classifier to predict which files are likely to be external
   quality hotspots based on their internal quality metrics with over 75\%
   accuracy. We also used the trained model to predict hotspots for a Java
   project whose data was not used to train the classifier and achieved
   over 75\% accuracy again, demonstrating the method's general
   applicability to different projects.},

Abstract = {At present, information security solutions and suitably trained experts
   with practical experience have a key role to play. Due to the
   covid-pandemic, people's tasks without physical contact came to the
   fore, and remote work became more valuable. At the same time, the number
   of cyber-attacks has suddenly increased, not even sparing hospitals. The
   aim of this article is to present how to prepare recent security
   professionals and future experts for work based on SOC implementation
   and operation from on threat modeling through applying higher quality
   Information Security solutions. We use open source software environment
   as prototype. The goal with SOC based on open source software is to
   demonstrate the perception of a possible cyberattack, in addition, we
   present the possibility of using it even in enterprise environment.
   Basically, by applying this direction for training and education
   purposes, we achieve experts with comprehensive knowledge on newer type
   of attacks and defense capabilities while they able to apply quick and
   even risk-proportionate solutions to challenges. A sufficiently in-depth
   knowledge of an Open source-based SOC solution for educational purposes
   helps them prepare for the optimal handling of cyber security threats
   and facilitate the acquisition of in-depth information in the field of

Abstract = {For the past 25 years, the field of neuroimaging has witnessed the
   development of several software packages for processing multi-parametric
   magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) to study the brain. These software
   packages are now routinely used by researchers and clinicians, and have
   contributed to important breakthroughs for the understanding of brain
   anatomy and function. However, no software package exists to process
   mpMRI data of the spinal cord. Despite the numerous clinical needs for
   such advanced mpMRI protocols (multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury,
   cervical spondylotic myelopathy, etc.), researchers have been developing
   specific tools that, while necessary, do not provide an integrative
   framework that is compatible with most usages and that is capable of
   reaching the community at large. This hinders cross-validation and the
   possibility to perform multi-center studies. In this study we introduce
   the Spinal Cord Toolbox (SCT), a comprehensive software dedicated to the
   processing of spinal cord MRI data. SCT builds on previously-validated
   methods and includes state-of-the-art MM templates and atlases of the
   spinal cord, algorithms to segment and register new data to the
   templates, and motion correction methods for diffusion and functional
   time series. SCT is tailored towards standardization and automation of
   the processing pipeline, versatility, modularity, and it follows
   guidelines of software development and distribution. Preliminary
   applications of SCT cover a variety of studies, from cross-sectional
   area measures in large databases of patients, to the precise
   quantification of mpMRI metrics in specific spinal pathways. We
   anticipate that SCT will bring together the spinal cord neuroimaging
   community by establishing standard templates and analysis procedures.},

Abstract = {Experimental studies in neuroscience are producing data at a rapidly
   increasing rate, providing exciting opportunities and formidable
   challenges to existing theoretical and modeling approaches. To turn
   massive datasets into predictive quantitative frameworks, the field
   needs software solutions for systematic integration of data into

   ToolKit (BMTK), a software suite for building models and performing
   simulations at multiple levels of resolution, from biophysically
   detailed multi-compartmental, to point-neuron, to population-statistical
   approaches. Leveraging the SONATA file format and existing software such
   as NEURON, NEST, and others, BMTK offers a consistent user experience
   across multiple levels of resolution. It permits highly sophisticated
   simulations to be set up with little coding required, thus lowering
   entry barriers to new users. We illustrate successful applications of
   BMTK to large-scale simulations of a cortical area. BMTK is an
   open-source package provided as a resource supporting modeling-based
   discovery in the community.},

Abstract = {Multiplexed bioassays, in which multiple analytes of interest are probed
   in parallel within a single small volume, have greatly accelerated the
   pace of biological discovery. Bead-based multiplexed bioassays have many
   technical advantages, including near solution-phase kinetics, small
   sample volume requirements, many within-assay replicates to reduce
   measurement error, and, for some bead materials, the ability to
   synthesize analytes directly on beads via solid-phase synthesis. To
   allow bead-based multiplexing, analytes can be synthesized on spectrally
   encoded beads with a 1:1 linkage between analyte identity and embedded
   codes. Bead-bound analyte libraries can then be pooled and incubated
   with a fluorescently-labeled macromolecule of interest, allowing
   downstream quantification of interactions between the macromolecule and
   all analytes simultaneously via imaging alone. Extracting quantitative
   binding data from these images poses several computational image
   processing challenges, requiring the ability to identify all beads in
   each image, quantify bound fluorescent material associated with each
   bead, and determine their embedded spectral code to reveal analyte
   identities. Here, we present a novel open-source Python software package
   (the mrbles analysis package) that provides the necessary tools to: (1)
   find encoded beads in a bright-field microscopy image; (2) quantify
   bound fluorescent material associated with bead perimeters; (3) identify
   embedded ratiometric spectral codes within beads; and (4) return data
   aggregated by embedded code and for each individual bead. We demonstrate
   the utility of this package by applying it towards analyzing data
   generated via multiplexed measurement of calcineurin protein binding to
   MRBLEs (Microspheres with Ratiometric Barcode Lanthanide Encoding)
   containing known and mutant binding peptide motifs. We anticipate that
   this flexible package should be applicable to a wide variety of assays,
   including simple bead or droplet finding analysis, quantification of
   binding to non-encoded beads, and analysis of multiplexed assays that
   use ratiometric, spectrally encoded beads.},

Abstract = {For Teleradiology the exchange of DICOM-images is needed for several
   purposes. Existing solutions often don't consider about the needs for
   data security and data privacy. Communication is done without any
   encryption over insecure networks or with encryption using proprietary
   solutions, which reduces the data communication possibilities to
   partners with the same equipment. Our goal was to build a gateway, which
   offers a transparent solution for secure DICOM-communication in a
   heterogeneous environment.
   We developed a PC-based gateway system with DICOM-communication to the
   in-house network and secure DICOM communication for the communication
   over the insecure network. One gateway installed at each location is
   responsible for encryption/decryption. The sender just transfers the
   image data over the DICOM protocol to the local gateway. The gateway
   forwards the data to the gateway on the destination site using the
   secure DICOM protocol, which is part of the DICOM standard. The
   receiving gateway forwards the image data to the final destination again
   using the DICOM-Protocol.
   The gateway is based on Open Source software and runs under several
   operating systems. Our experience shows a reliable solution, which
   solves security issues for DICOM communication of image data and
   integrates seamless into a heterogeneous DICOM environment.},

Abstract = {To develop a generic Open Source MRI perfusion analysis tool for
   quantitative parameter mapping to be used in a clinical workflow and
   methods for quality management of perfusion data. We implemented a
   classic, pixel-by-pixel deconvolution approach to quantify T1-weighted
   contrast-enhanced dynamic MR imaging (DCE-MRI) perfusion data as an
   OsiriX plug-in. It features parallel computing capabilities and an
   automated reporting scheme for quality management. Furthermore, by our
   implementation design, it could be easily extendable to other perfusion
   algorithms. Obtained results are saved as DICOM objects and directly
   added to the patient study. The plug-in was evaluated on ten MR
   perfusion data sets of the prostate and a calibration data set by
   comparing obtained parametric maps (plasma flow, volume of distribution,
   and mean transit time) to a widely used reference implementation in IDL.
   For all data, parametric maps could be calculated and the plug-in worked
   correctly and stable. On average, a deviation of 0.032 +/- 0.02 ml/100
   ml/min for the plasma flow, 0.004 +/- 0.0007 ml/100 ml for the volume of
   distribution, and 0.037 +/- 0.03 s for the mean transit time between our
   implementation and a reference implementation was observed. By using
   computer hardware with eight CPU cores, calculation time could be
   reduced by a factor of 2.5. We developed successfully an Open Source
   OsiriX plugin for T1-DCE-MRI perfusion analysis in a routine quality
   managed clinical environment. Using model-free deconvolution, it allows
   for perfusion analysis in various clinical applications. By our plug-in,
   information about measured physiological processes can be obtained and
   transferred into clinical practice.},

Abstract = {BlockSystems.jl and NetworkDynamics.jl are two novel software packages
   which facilitate highly efficient transient stability simulations of
   power networks. Users may specify inputs and power system design in a

   programming language Julia {[}1] a rich open-source package ecosystem is
   available, which provides state-of-the-art solvers and machine learning
   algorithms {[}2].
   Motivated by the recent interest in the Nordic inertia challenge {[}3]
   we have implemented the Nordic5 test case {[}4] and tuned its control
   parameters by making use of the machine learning and automatic
   differentiation capabilities of our software stack.},

Abstract = {As the use of Open Source Software (OSS) systems increases in the
   corporate environment, it is important to examine the maintenance
   process of these projects. OSS projects allow end users to directly
   submit reports in case of any operational issues. Timely resolution of
   these defect reports requires effective management of maintenance
   resources. This study analyzes the usefulness of the textual content of
   the defect reports as an early indicator of their resolution time. Text
   Mining techniques are used to categorize defect reports of five OSS
   projects. Significant variation in the defect resolution time amongst
   the resulting categories, for each of the sample projects, indicates
   that a text based classification of defect reports can be useful in
   early assessment of resolution time before source code level analysis.
   Such technique can assist in allocation of sufficient maintenance
   resources to targeted defects and also enable project teams to manage
   customer expectations regarding defect resolution times.},

Abstract = {Conservation Voltage Reduction (CVR) is the reduction of energy
   consumption resulting from a reduction of the service voltage. While
   there have been numerous CVR deployments in North America, there has
   been little substantive analytic analysis of the effect; the majority of
   the published results are based on empirical field measurements. Due to
   the lack of analytic study, it is difficult to determine the impacts of
   CVR outside of sites that have conducted demonstration projects. This
   panel paper will examine a framework for the analysis of CVR using the
   open source software package GridLAB-D. An open source simulation
   environment is used to highlight the effectiveness of open source
   software programs and their ability to be used for evaluating

Abstract = {Many open source software (OSS) development projects use tools and
   models that come from heterogeneous sources. A project manager, who
   wants to analyze indicators for the state of the project based on these
   data sources, faces the challenge of how to link semi-structured
   information on common concepts across heterogeneous data sources, e.g.,
   source code versions, mailing list entries, and bug reports.
   Unfortunately, manual analysis is costly, error-prone, and often yields
   results late for decision making. In this paper we propose linking OSS
   data sources using semantic web technologies as foundation for providing
   integrated indicators project status analysis. We introduce the design
   concept of a project monitoring cockpit, Pro-MonCo, and evaluate the
   feasibility and effectiveness with a pro-totype for calculating
   communication metrics in a real-world context, the Apache Tomcat
   project. Major result was that Pro-MonCo efficiently supports frequent
   project monitoring by calculating communication metrics based on
   semantically integrated data originating from heterogeneous OSS project
   data sources.},

Journal = {COMPUTER PHYSICS COMMUNICATIONS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {295},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {EPIq (Electron-Phonon wannier Interpolation over k and q-points) is an
   open-source software for the calculation of electron-phonon interaction
   related properties from first principles. Acting as a post-processing
   tool for a density-functional perturbation theory code (Quantum
   ESPRESSO) and WANNIER90, EPIq exploits the localization of the
   deformation potential in the Wannier function basis and the stationary
   properties of a force-constant functional with respect to the
   first-order perturbation of the electronic charge density to calculate
   many electron-phonon related properties with high accuracy and free from
   convergence issues related to Brillouin zone sampling. EPIq features
   include: the adiabatic and non-adiabatic phonon dispersion,
   superconducting properties (including the superconducting band gap in
   the Migdal-Eliashberg formulation), double-resonant Raman spectra and
   lifetime of excited carriers. The possibility to customize most of its
   input makes EPIq a versatile and interoperable tool. Particularly
   relevant is the interaction with the Stochastic Self-Consistent Harmonic
   Approximation (SSCHA) allowing anharmonic effects to be included in the
   calculation of electron -properties. The scalability offered by the
   Wannier representation combined with a straightforward workflow and
   easy-to-read input and output files make EPIq accessible to the wide
   condensed matter and material science communities.Program summaryProgram

Abstract = {High fidelity simulation of cognitive radio networks (CRN) requires a
   CRN software framework with librairies of components at all layers of
   the open systems interconnection (OSI) model (e.g. modulation schemes,
   protocols, routing algorithms) along with realistic channel models for
   simulating a high number of nodes. At the same time, the CRN software
   framework should provide interfaces with hardware platforms for testbed
   evaluation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL). Unfortunately, there is no
   such software framework in the research community. This paper studies
   the combination of some open-source frameworks for high fidelity
   simulation of CRN. In particular, some challenges are highlighted for
   the combination of radio simulators (e.g. GNU Radio, CogWave) and
   network simulators (e.g. OMNeT++, ns3) at the level of network layer,
   data link layer and physical layer. Based on this evaluation, new
   extensions to the CogWave open-source software framework are proposed
   for high fidelity simulation of CRN.},

Abstract = {Complex molecular mixtures are encountered in almost all research
   disciplines, such as biomedical `omics, petroleomics, and environmental
   sciences. State-of-the-art characterization of sample materials related
   to these fields, deploying high-end instrumentation, allows for
   gathering large quantities of molecular composition data. One
   established technological platform is ultrahigh-resolution mass
   spectrometry, e.g., Fourier-transform mass spectrometry (FT-MS).
   However, the huge amounts of data acquired in FT-MS often result in
   tedious data treatment and visualization. FT-MS analysis of complex
   matrices can easily lead to single mass spectra with more than 10,000
   attributed unique molecular formulas. Sophisticated software solutions
   to conduct these treatment and visualization attempts from commercial
   and noncommercial origins exist. However, existing applications have
   distinct drawbacks, such as focusing on only one type of graphic
   representation, being unable to handle large data sets, or not being
   publicly available. In this respect, we developed a software, within the
   international complex matrices molecular characterization joint lab
   (IC2MC), named ``python tools for complex matrices molecular
   characterization{''} (PyC2MC). This piece of software will be
   open-source and free to use. PyC2MC is written under python 3.9.7 and
   relies on well-known libraries such as pandas, NumPy, or SciPy. It is
   provided with a graphical user interface developed under PyQt5. The two
   options for execution, (1) a user-friendly route with a prepacked
   executable file or (2) running the main python script through a Python
   interpreter, ensure a high applicability but also an open characteristic
   for further development by the community. Both are available on the
   GitHub platform (https://github.com/iC2MC/PyC2MC\_viewer).},

Abstract = {There is growing concern about maintainers self-sabotaging their work in
   order to take political or economic stances, a practice referred to as
   ``protestware{''}. Our objective is to understand the discourse around
   discussions on such an attack, how it is received by the community, and
   whether developers respond to the attack in a timely manner. We study
   two notable protestware cases i.e., colors.js and es5-ext. Results
   indicate that protestware discussions are spread more quickly on the
   GitHub platform, while security vulnerabilities are faster on social
   media. By establishing a taxonomy of protestware discussions, we
   identify posts that express stances and provide technical mitigation
   instructions. We applied a thematic analysis to 684 protestware related
   posts to identify five major themes during the discussions: i.
   disseminate and response, ii. stance, iii. reputation, iv. communicative
   styles, v. rights and ethics. This work sheds light on the nuanced
   landscape of protestware discussions, offering insights for both
   researchers and developers into maintaining a healthy balance between
   the political or social actions of developers and the collective
   well-being of the open-source community.},

Journal = {EPJ NUCLEAR SCIENCES \& TECHNOLOGIES},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {5},
Month = {FEB 28},
Abstract = {The high-performance computing resources and the constant improvement of
   both numerical simulation accuracy and the experimental measurements
   with which they are confronted bring a new compulsory step to strengthen
   the credence given to the simulation results: uncertainty
   quantification. This can have different meanings, according to the
   requested goals (rank uncertainty sources, reduce them, estimate
   precisely a critical threshold or an optimal working point), and it
   could request mathematical methods with greater or lesser complexity.
   This paper introduces the Uranie platform, an open-source framework
   developed at the Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission
   (CEA), in the nuclear energy division, in order to deal with uncertainty
   propagation, surrogate models, optimisation issues, code calibration,
   etc. This platform benefits from both its dependencies and from personal
   developments, to offer an efficient data handling model, a C++ and
   Python interface, advanced graphi graphical tools, several
   parallelisation solutions, etc. These methods can then be applied to
   many kinds of code (considered as black boxes by Uranie) so to many
   fields of physics as well. In this paper, the example of thermal
   exchange between a plate-sheet and a fluid is introduced to show how
   Uranie can be used to perform a large range of analysis.},

Abstract = {In this chapter we investigate the potential of open source software to

   We argue that especially small and medium organizations play a crucial

   local context. We consider how new information and communication
   technology (ICT) can increase outreach of MF to the very poor within a
   self-sustainable holistic approach. We consider the potential of
   free/open source software projects to address the computing needs of
   small and remote MFIs, and we describe the reasons why no suitable
   solutions have emerged yet. While the use of FOSS and ICTs in general
   can help increase outreach, we feel the need to draw attention to the
   challenges that come with it; one should not forget that access to basic
   financial services is not all that is needed by the very poor.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has already been adopted by a large number of
   organizations. An important - but sometimes neglected group of OSS users
   are Independent Software Vendors (ISVs). ISVs often develop their
   applications on top of OSS platform software. Frequently, this requires
   making several extensions and modifications to these OSS components. We
   identify a number of challenges that ISVs face in handling these
   extensions and modifications. Next, we describe several strategies ISVs
   can follow in maintaining these modifications. Finally, we suggest an
   opportunity for a closer collaboration between OSS projects and ISVs
   which could be mutually beneficial. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights

Abstract = {Open source software comprises a revolutionary new model of software
   development and distribution. Widespread Internet access in the early
   1990s led to a dramatic acceleration of open source activity; but the

   voluntary participation. This paper investigates the social-relational
   factors, including developers' identification and obligation, shared
   goals, cognitive and affective trust, and their effects on open source
   software developer's participation. Data were collected from voluntary
   developers in open source projects. The research findings show that the
   social-relational factors are very important to promote developer's
   participation in an open source project. This research contributes
   empirically to the body of open source software research, and has
   practical implications for open source software development.},

Title = {Evaluation of the free, open source software WordPress as electronic
   portfolio system in undergraduate medical education},
Journal = {BMC MEDICAL EDUCATION},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {16},
Month = {JUN 3},
Abstract = {Background: Electronic portfolios (ePortfolios) are used to document and
   support learning activities. E-portfolios with mobile capabilities allow
   even more flexibility. However, the development or acquisition of
   ePortfolio software is often costly, and at the same time, commercially
   available systems may not sufficiently fit the institution's needs. The
   aim of this study was to design and evaluate an ePortfolio system with
   mobile capabilities using a commercially free and open source software
   solution.
   Methods: We created an online ePortfolio environment using the blogging
   software WordPress based on reported capability features of such
   software by a qualitative weight and sum method. Technical
   implementation and usability were evaluated by 25 medical students
   during their clinical training by quantitative and qualitative means
   using online questionnaires and focus groups.
   Results: The WordPress ePortfolio environment allowed students a broad
   spectrum of activities - often documented via mobile devices - like
   collection of multimedia evidences, posting reflections, messaging, web
   publishing, ePortfolio searches, collaborative learning, knowledge
   management in a content management system including a wiki and RSS
   feeds, and the use of aid tools for studying. The students' experience
   with WordPress revealed a few technical problems, and this report
   provides workarounds. The WordPress ePortfolio was rated positively by
   the students as a content management system (67 \% of the students), for
   exchange with other students (74 \%), as a note pad for reflections (53
   \%) and for its potential as an information source for assessment (48
   \%) and exchange with a mentor (68 \%). On the negative side, 74 \% of
   the students in this pilot study did not find it easy to get started
   with the system, and 63 \% rated the ePortfolio as not being
   user-friendly. Qualitative analysis indicated a need for more
   introductory information and training.
   Conclusions: It is possible to build an advanced ePortfolio system with
   mobile capabilities with the free and open source software WordPress.
   This allows institutions without proprietary software to build a
   sophisticated ePortfolio system adapted to their needs with relatively
   few resources. The implementation of WordPress should be accompanied by
   introductory courses in the use of the software and its apps in order to
   facilitate its usability.},

Abstract = {The Free/Open Source Software (F/OSS) research community is growing
   across and within multiple disciplines. This community faces a new and

   empirical data have been replaced by issues of dealing with enormous
   amounts of freely available public data from many disparate sources
   (online discussion forums, source code directories, bug reports, OSS Web
   portals, etc.). Consequently, these data are being discovered, gathered,
   analyzed, and used to support multidisciplinary research. However at
   present, no means exist for assembling these data under common access
   points and frameworks for comparative, longitudinal, and collaborative
   research across disciplines. Gathering and maintaining large F/OSS data
   collections reliably and making them usable present several research
   challenges. For example, current projects usually rely on direct access
   to, and mining of raw data from groups that generate it, and both of
   these methods require unique effort for each new corpus, or even for
   updating existing corpora. In this paper, we identify several needs and
   critical factors in F/OSS empirical research across disciplines, and
   suggest recommendations for design of a global research infrastructure
   for multi-disciplinary research into F/OSS development.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is being considered the new paradigm of
   software distribution. As contrasted with the traditional software
   marketing model, OSS pursues the freedom to have access to open source
   and offers several advantages to enterprises. These advantages include
   saving costs related to Information Systems and Technologies (IS/IT) and
   the possibility of adapting to changing organizational requirements.
   However, the recent forthcoming of OSS prevents us from knowing the real
   impact it has today on social and organizational fields. Having
   considered this obstacle, the authors have defined a foreseeable setting
   for OSS diffusion and adoption by means of a forecasting study based on
   the Delphi method for the year 2010. The findings reveal the levels of
   OSS diffusion for this year according to the main applications,
   geographic regions and industries. In a complementary manner, the
   authors have studied the elements of success as well as the most
   relevant obstacles for diffusing and adopting technological solutions

Volume = {3},
Month = {NOV 18},
Abstract = {Smartphone and wearable devices are widely used in behavioral and
   clinical research to collect longitudinal data that, along with ground
   truth data, are used to create models of human behavior. Mobile sensing
   researchers often program data processing and analysis code from scratch
   even though many research teams collect data from similar mobile
   sensors, platforms, and devices. This leads to significant inefficiency
   in not being able to replicate and build on others' work, inconsistency
   in quality of code and results, and lack of transparency when code is
   not shared alongside publications. We provide an overview of
   Reproducible Analysis Pipeline for Data Streams (RAPIDS), a reproducible
   pipeline to standardize the preprocessing, feature extraction, analysis,
   visualization, and reporting of data streams coming from mobile sensors.
   RAPIDS is formed by a group of R and Python scripts that are executed on
   top of reproducible virtual environments, orchestrated by a workflow
   management system, and organized following a consistent file structure
   for data science projects. We share open source, documented, extensible
   and tested code to preprocess, extract, and visualize behavioral
   features from data collected with any Android or iOS smartphone sensing
   app as well as Fitbit and Empatica wearable devices. RAPIDS allows
   researchers to process mobile sensor data in a rigorous and reproducible
   way. This saves time and effort during the data analysis phase of a
   project and facilitates sharing analysis workflows alongside
   publications.},

   many discrepancies in the terminology, length, enforcement, and adoption
   of codes of conduct. To investigate the usage of these CoCs, we
   investigate five women-focused OSS discussion forums. This analysis
   shows the value of creating/adopting a CoC and the impact CoC can have
   on the participation of women. We also present the challenges in the

Abstract = {Deserts are among the most poorly understood biomes in the world,
   currently experiencing among the highest rates of environmental change
   and biodiversity loss. A major controlling factor on the ecology and
   distribution of vegetation and animal populations in these harsh arid
   systems is the abundance and distribution of water sources. Accordingly,
   extraction and redistribution of water at artificial water points across
   desert landscapes can constitute a real threat to local ecosystem
   dynamics. A major challenge in tackling this potential threat is
   identifying changes in the distribution of artificial water points
   through space and time, due to the difficulties of collecting such
   information at relevant spatial and temporal scales. We here investigate
   the potential for freely available satellite imagery to provide reliable
   information about the distribution of artificial water points using the
   Ouadi Rime-Ouadi Achim Faunal Reserve (OROAFR), Chad, as a case study.
   We reveal that Landsat 8 data combined with texture analysis can
   accurately detect these artificial landmarks across the heterogeneous
   environment of OROAFR; 75.68\% of artificial water points within the
   site were successfully identified and false positive detection rate was
   minimal at 7.69\%. The methodological framework developed for this work,
   based on the treatment of freely available satellite data using open
   source software, adds to other works attempting to help monitor threats
   to biodiversity in desert ecosystems, enabling up-to-date information on
   the level of anthropogenic activities in these habitats to be easily and
   regularly collected.},

   this paper is to discuss the factors that hinder institutions from
   utilizing Web 2.0 and FOSS for e-learning. Content analysis was used to
   evaluate the factors that had been identified in literature and to tally
   them according to their frequency. 36 factors were deduced and analyzed
   using structural equation modeling (SEM) method. Results indicated that
   technological factors predominantly impact on the utilization of Web 2.0

   SOFTWARE A Coordination Theory Analysis},
Booktitle = {BUSINESS PROCESS TRANSFORMATION},
Series = {Advances in Management Information Systems},
Year = {2008},
Volume = {9},
Pages = {69-99},
Abstract = {To support business process transformation, we must first be able to
   represent business processes in a way that allows us to compare and
   contrast them or to design new ones. This chapter uses coordination
   theory to analyze the bug fixing processes in the proprietary operating
   system development group of a large minicomputer manufacturer and for
   the Free/Libre Open Source Software Linux operating system kernel. Three
   approaches to identifying dependencies and coordination mechanisms are
   presented. Mechanisms analyzed include those for task assignment,
   resource sharing, and managing dependencies between modules of source
   code. The proprietary development organization assigned problem reports
   to engineers based on the module that appeared to be in error, because
   engineers only worked on particular modules. Alternative task assignment
   mechanisms include assignment to engineers based on workload or
   voluntary assignment, as in Linux. In the proprietary process, modules
   of source code were not shared but, rather, were ``owned{''} by one
   engineer, thus reducing the need for coordination. In Linux, where
   multiple developers can work on the same modules, alternative resource
   sharing mechanisms have been developed to manage source code. Finally,
   the proprietary developers managed dependencies between modules
   informally, relying on their personal knowledge of which other engineers
   used their code. The Linux process allows developers to change code in
   multiple modules, but emphasizes modularity to reduce the need to do so.

Abstract = {A hidden part of the World Wide Web is known as the Dark Web, featuring
   websites that cannot be indexed by traditional search engines. Many open
   source software products are used to access and navigate through the
   Dark Web. Together they form the Dark Web open source software
   ecosystem. Research on this ecosystem is scarce and research on the
   ecosystem health is non-existent, even though ecosystem health is an
   useful indicator of the livelihood of an ecosystem. The goal of this
   research is to evaluate the health of the ecosystem through an
   assessment of Tor, I2P and GitHub. The Open Source Ecosystem Health
   Operationalization framework is used to help perform this assessment.
   Eight metrics from the framework are selected, which are measured using
   the data collected. Analysis of Tor and I2P metrics suggest that there
   has been an increase in Tor and I2P user activity in the recent past.
   Added knowledge, spin offs and forks and usage indicate active
   participation and interest in Tor and I2P. There has also been an
   increase in the number of active GitHub Dark Web projects. However,
   these GitHub projects are not well-connected and only a small number of
   projects have a large number of contributors. There is some variety
   among the GitHub software projects. The framework proves to be
   adequately capable of determining the health of the Dark Web open source
   ecosystem with the available data.},

   the methodology of textual analysis to determine those factors that have
   been identified in related literature according to their frequency of
   appearance. A set of thirty six factors, wherein each of these factors
   has a frequency that is greater than a threshold of two was considered
   for further analysis. The analytic structural equation modelling method
   was applied to determine the importance of these factors in the
   optimization of eLearning using Web 2.0 and FOSS. Results indicated that
   technological factors when mediated by adoption are predominant for
   influencing the use of Web 2.0 and FOSS in the optimization of
   eLearning. This study serves as a cornerstone for those institutions
   that would like to leverage on Web 2.0 and FOSS for eLearning.},

Year = {2021},

Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {It is well established that colony growth of filamentous fungi, mostly
   dependent on changes in hyphae/mycelia apical growth rate, is
   macroscopically estimated on solidified media by comparing colony size.
   However, to quantitatively measure the growth rate of genetically
   different fungal strains or strains under different environmental/growth
   conditions (pH, temperature, carbon and nitrogen sources, antibiotics,
   etc.) is challenging. Thus, the pursuit of complementary approaches to
   quantify growth kinetics becomes mandatory in order to better understand
   fungal cell growth. Furthermore, it is well-known that filamentous
   fungi, including Aspergillus spp., have distinct modes of growth and
   differentiation under sub-aerial conditions on solid media or submerged
   cultures. Here, we detail a quantitative microscopic method for
   analyzing growth kinetics of the model fungus Aspergillus nidulans,
   using live imaging in both submerged cultures and solid media. We
   capture images, analyze, and quantify growth rates of different fungal
   strains in a reproducible and reliable manner using an open source, free
   software for bio-images (e.g., Fiji), in a way that does not require any
   prior image analysis expertise from the user.},

   is incomplete for some custom purposes. Open-Source Software were used
   to first collect data from diverse City of Denver Open Data sets, then
   upload them to a repository in the Cloud where they were processed using
   a PostgreSQL installation on the Cloud and Python scripts. Our method
   was able to extract non-spatial information from a

Abstract = {Engineering is basically the application of the laws of nature for the
   benefit of the human kind. In the curriculum of majority of engineering
   branches there are certain abstract concepts. The students find it
   difficult to understand these concepts. There are many methods which are
   being followed to make the students understand concepts. One such method
   is the use of CAD tools When computers came into class rooms, the need
   for CAD tools also arose {[}1]. They help the students to visualize many
   basic concepts which, they otherwise cannot see in the physical world.
   In this 21st century, dominated by social networking, the tools required
   to educate them have also come to be available in free of cost. Such
   tools are called open source software or FOSS tools. We have proposed a
   teaching methodology that involves the usage of open source software
   tools along with traditional teaching which enable the communication
   engineering students to understand complex concepts pertaining to the
   subject of Antenna and wave propagation. We carried out an experiment
   with forty students from fifth semester Electronics and Communication
   Engineering department. The students used a FOSS tool and gave a test
   based on designing of various antennas with desired radiation patterns
   by selecting different parameters before and after using the tool. The
   scores of the two tests show that there was an increase in the marks
   obtained by students in the test after using the tool. Thus the use of
   FOSS tool helped students perform better in the test. This may be
   because the tool has visualizations which help student understand the
   abstract concepts such as antenna radiation pattern and wave
   propagation.},

Abstract = {Career path prediction is an important task in computational jobs
   marketplace. Recent advances in data science and artificial intelligence
   have imposed a huge recruitment demand on talents in the IT field.
   Previous studies predict a talent's next job title solely based on her
   past experience in the resume, which can lead to errors if the resume
   contains fake information. With the popularity of open-source software,
   we argue that the next job title can be predicted based on a candidate's
   past expertise in the open-source community. On the other hand, the
   career path can also affect the development of a talent's expertise.
   Motivated by the observation, we propose to predict the job titles of IT
   talents as a dual task of forecasting their expertise development in
   open-source software. To solve the task, we design a dual learning model
   DualJE that leverages both the data-level and model-level duality.
   Experimental results show that DualJE is effective and performs much
   better than comparative models. A replication package for this work is
   available at https://github.com/DaSESmartEdu/DualJE.},

   considering participation in individual tasks rather than entire
   projects.
   Design/methodology/approach - A quantitative study was designed using
   choose tasks that were carried out via the email discourse on the
   developers' email fora in five FLOSS projects. Choice process episodes
   were selected as the unit of analysis and were coded for the task
   trigger and topic. The impact of these factors on participation (i.e.
   the numbers of participants and messages) was assessed by regression.
   Findings - The results reveal differences in participation related to
   different task triggers and task topics. Further, the results suggest
   the mediating role of the number of participants in the relationships
   between task characteristics and the number of messages. The authors
   also speculate that project type serves as a boundary condition
   restricting the impacts of task characteristics on the number of
   participants and propose this relationship for future research.
   Research limitations/implications - Empirical support was provided to
   the important effects of different task characteristics on individual
   participation behaviors in FLOSS development tasks.
   Practical implications - The findings can help FLOSS participants
   understand participation patterns in different tasks and choose the
   types of tasks to attend to.
   Originality/value - This research explores the impact of task
   characteristics on participation in FLOSS development at the task level,
   while prior research on participation in FLOSS development has focused
   mainly on factors at the individual and/or project levels.},

Title = {THE STUDY OF OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE COLLABORATIVE USER MODEL BASED ON
   SOCIAL NETWORK AND TAG SIMILARITY},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF ELECTRONIC COMMERCE RESEARCH},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {15},
Number = {1},
Pages = {77-86},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) has become a mainstream in software
   development, utilizing a global information infrastructure. OSS is a
   complicated social process to understand. OSS is a multi-faceted
   phenomenon including code, a licensing structure, a community,
   development best practices, a method of diffusion. However, the current
   OSS collaborative researches place too much emphasis on collaborative
   behaviors, but ignore the study on collaborative process. By using the
   social network theory to abstract collaborative network topology, this
   paper proposes a method for constructing social network model, which
   considers both the contact relationship and level of collaboration
   between collaborators. Based on the definition of three types of contact
   behavior, this paper presents an approach to measuring the contact
   relationship intensity. Based on introducing and improving TF-IDF (term
   frequency-inverse document frequency), this paper presents the methods
   for calculating tag weights and work similarity between collaborators.
   Finally, by evaluating the model using data from the OSS
   websitewww.Codeplex.com, we verify that our model outperforms
   conventional models in both describing and forecasting collaborative
   behavior.},

Abstract = {This paper describes a new quantitation method called AQSES for short
   echo time magnetic resonance spectra. This method is embedded in a
   software package available online from
   www.esat.kuleuven.be/sista/members/biomed/new/ with a graphical user
   interface, under an open source license, which means that the source
   code is freely available and easy to adapt to specific needs of the
   user. The quantitation problem is mathematically formulated as a
   separable nonlinear least-squares fitting problem, which is numerically
   solved using a modified variable-projection procedure. A macromolecular
   baseline is incorporated into the fit via nonparametric modelling,
   efficiently implemented using penalized splines. Unwanted components
   such as residual water are removed with a maximum-phase FIR filter.
   Constraints on the phases, dampings and frequencies of the metabolites
   can be imposed. AQSES has been tested on simulated MR spectra with
   several types of disturbance and on short echo time in vivo proton MR
   spectra. Results show that AQSES is robust, easy to use and very
   flexible. Copyright (C) 2006 John Wiley \& Sons, Ltd.},

Abstract = {In Open Source Software (OSS) development community supported by

   in the Eclipse OSS community, the main role of OSS development
   activities is taken over by vendors. The relationship between
   individuals and vendors is reversed. Therefore, it becomes important to
   maintain the motivation of the development community, promote innovation
   and link the activities to the profit of vendors. In other words,
   management of co-creation and competition are being conducted at the
   same time. This paper tries to clarify internal and external structures
   in an OSS ecosystem led by vendors considering the Eclipse community as
   one particular case. Also it constructs a co-creation model to promote

Title = {A Study on the Field Data Applicability of Seismic Data Processing using
   Open-source Software (Madagascar)},
Journal = {GEOPHYSICS AND GEOPHYSICAL EXPLORATION},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {21},
Number = {3},
Pages = {171-182},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {We performed the seismic field data processing using an open-source
   software (Madagascar) to verify if it is applicable to processing of
   field data, which has low signal-to-noise ratio and high uncertainties
   in velocities. The Madagascar, based on Python, is usually supposed to
   be better in the development of processing technologies due to its
   capabilities of multidimensional data analysis and reproducibility.
   However, this open-source software has not been widely used so far for
   field data processing because of complicated interfaces and data
   structure system. To verify the effectiveness of the Madagascar software
   on field data, we applied it to a typical seismic data processing flow
   including data loading, geometry build-up, F-K filter, predictive
   deconvolution, velocity analysis, normal moveout correction, stack, and
   migration. The field data for the test were acquired in Gunsan Basin,
   Yellow Sea using a streamer consisting of 480 channels and 4 arrays of
   air-guns. The results at all processing step are compared with those
   processed with Landmark's ProMAX (SeisSpace R5000) which is a commercial
   processing software. Madagascar shows relatively high efficiencies in
   data IO and management as well as reproducibility. Additionally, it
   shows quick and exact calculations in some automated procedures such as
   stacking velocity analysis. There were no remarkable differences in the
   results after applying the signal enhancement flows of both software.
   For the deeper part of the substructure image, however, the commercial
   software shows better results than the open-source software. This is
   simply because the commercial software has various flows for de-multiple
   and provides interactive processing environments for delicate processing
   works compared to Madagascar. Considering that many researchers around
   the world are developing various data processing algorithms for
   Madagascar, we can expect that the open-source software such as
   Madagascar can be widely used for commercial-level processing with the
   strength of expandability, cost effectiveness and reproducibility.},

Abstract = {Government and academia share concerns for efficiently and effectively
   servicing societal demands, which includes the development of
   e-government software. Government-academia partnerships can be a
   valuable approach for improving productivity in achieving these goals.
   However, governmental and academic institutions tend to have very
   different agendas and organizational and managerial structures, which
   can hinder the success of such collaborative projects. In order to
   identify effective approaches to overcome collaboration barriers, we
   systematically studied the case of the Brazilian Public Software portal
   project, a 30-month government-academia collaboration that, using
   Free/Libre/Open Source Software practices and agile methods for project
   management, developed an unprecedented platform in the context of the
   Brazilian government. We gathered information from experience reports
   and data collection from repositories and interviews to derive a
   collection of practices that contributed to the success of the
   collaboration. In this paper, we describe how the data analysis led to
   the identification of a set of three high-level decisions supported by
   the adoption of nine best practices that improved the project
   performance and enabled professional training of the whole team. (C)

Abstract = {Participatory Action Research (PAR) is an established method to

   reach decisions. This study proposes a PAR framework specifically
   tailored to FOSS communities. We successfully applied the framework to
   implement a set of quality assurance interventions in the Robot
   Operating System community. The framework we proposed is composed of
   three components, interventions design, democratization, and execution.
   We believe that this process will work for other FOSS communities too.
   We have learned that changing a particular aspect of a FOSS community is
   arduous. To achieve success the change must rally the community around
   it for support and attract motivated volunteers to implement the

Abstract = {Herein we present a modular approach to a high-throughput

   system, small tools with a limited set of tasks are interconnected using

   Since the modules are isolated and intermodule communication is
   standardized, new components can be integrated without side effects. The
   developed software environment follows to a large extent the UNIX design
   philosophy and is heavily based on open-source software technologies
   that are used to solve specific tasks within the overall system to
   achieve high productivity in using the software for ambitious
   high-throughput experimentation programs. It is shown that the
   orchestration of the system significantly benefits from clear and

   high-throughput experimentation data and processes. (c) 2005 American

Abstract = {A constant influx of newcomers is essential for the sustainability and
   success of open source software (OSS) projects. However, successful
   onboarding is always challenging because newcomers face various initial
   contributing barriers. To support newcomer onboarding, OSS communities
   widely adopt the mentoring approach. Despite its significance, previous
   mentoring studies tend to focus on the newcomer's perspective, leaving
   the mentor's perspective relatively under-studied. To better support
   mentoring, we study the popular Google Summer of Code (GSoC). It is a
   well-established global program that offers stipends and mentors to
   students aiming to bring more student developers into OSS development.
   We combine online data analysis, an email survey, and semi-structured
   interviews with the GSoC mentors to understand their motivations,
   challenges, strategies, and gains. We propose a taxonomy of GSoC
   mentors' engagement with four themes, ten categories, 34 sub-categories,
   and 118 codes, as well as the mentors' attitudes toward the codes. In
   particular, we find that mentors participating in GSoC are primarily
   intrinsically motivated, and some new motivators emerge adapting to the
   contemporary challenges, e.g., sustainability and advertisement of
   projects. Forty-one challenges and 52 strategies associated with the
   program timeline are identified, most of which are first time revealed.
   Although almost all the challenges are agreed upon by specific mentors,
   some mentors believe that several challenges are reasonable and even
   have a positive effect. For example, the cognitive differences between
   mentors and mentees can stimulate new perspectives. Most of the mentors
   agreed that they had adopted these strategies during the mentoring
   process, but a few strategies recommended by the GSoC administration
   were not agreed upon. Self-satisfaction, different skills, and peer
   recognition are the main gains of mentors to participate in GSoC.
   Eventually, we discuss practical implications for mentors, students, OSS
   communities, GSoC programs, and researchers.},

Title = {Uncovering the relationship between OSS user support networks and OSS
   popularity},
Journal = {DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEMS},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {64},
Pages = {142-151},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {The open source model of software development has become an attractive
   alternative to the traditional proprietary approach. However, the
   incomplete understanding of the phenomenon has continued to prompt
   researchers to investigate factors that could increase the use and
   popularity of open source software (ass). While a key antecedent for OSS
   use highlighted in the previous literature is the software quality, we
   propose that effective online user support is also necessary to increase
   its popularity. As an understudied area, this paper seeks to understand
   the role of online user support networks in facilitating OSS use. Based
   on the network embeddedness theory, it suggests that properties of the
   user support network i.e., variation in structural and junctional
   embeddedness, measured as the in-degree and betweenness centralizations
   respectively, would affect OSS popularity in terms of the number of
   active users and downloads of the software. Testing on a sample of 176
   OSS projects from Sourceforge.net, we showed that a negative quadratic
   relationship exists between the variation in structural embeddedness of
   the OSS user support network and the software popularity. Further, as
   hypothesized, the variation in junctional embeddedness was found to
   positively impact the OSS popularity. Theoretical and practical
   implications of the study are discussed. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All

Abstract = {This paper describes the OpenViBE software platform which enables
   researchers to design, test, and use brain-computer interfaces (BCIs).
   BCIs are communication systems that enable users to send commands to
   computers solely by means of brain activity. BCIs are gaining interest
   among the virtual reality (VR) community since they have appeared as
   promising interaction devices for virtual environments (VEs). The key
   features of the platform are (1) high modularity, (2) embedded tools for
   visualization and feedback based on VR and 3D displays, (3) BCI design
   made available to non-programmers thanks to visual programming, and (4)
   various tools offered to the different types of users. The platform
   features are illustrated in this paper with two entertaining VR
   applications based on a BCI. In the first one, users can move a virtual
   ball by imagining hand movements, while in the second one, they can
   control a virtual spaceship using real or imagined foot movements.
   Online experiments with these applications together with the evaluation
   of the platform computational performances showed its suitability for
   the design of VR applications controlled with a BCI. OpenViBE is a free
   software distributed under an open-source license.},

Abstract = {Attracting a large number of new contributors has been seen as a way to
   ensure the survival, long-term success, and sustainability of
   Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) communities. However, this
   appears to be a necessary, but not a sufficient condition, as the
   well-being of FLOSS communities also relies on members behaving as
   ``good citizens,{''} to nurture and protect the community. This paper
   investigates the notion of FLOSS community citizenship behaviors in
   light of the organizational citizenship behaviors literature. Relying on
   11 semi-structured interviews with FLOSS project leaders and community
   managers, the papers identifies key instances of citizenship behaviors
   along two dimensions: CCB-I (community citizenship behaviors oriented
   towards the benefits of other individuals), and CCB-P (community
   citizenship behaviors oriented towards the benefits of the project and
   its community).},

Title = {Large-Scale Identification and Analysis of Factors Impacting Simple Bug
   Resolution Times in Open Source Software Repositories},
Journal = {APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {13},
Number = {5},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {One of the most prominent issues the ever-growing open-source software
   community faces is the abundance of buggy code. Well-established version
   control systems and repository hosting services such as GitHub and Maven
   provide a checks-and-balances structure to minimize the amount of buggy
   code introduced. Although these platforms are effective in mitigating
   the problem, it still remains. To further the efforts toward a more
   effective and quicker response to bugs, we must understand the factors
   that affect the time it takes to fix one. We apply a custom traversal
   algorithm to commits made for open source repositories to determine when
   ``simple stupid bugs{''} were first introduced to projects and explore
   the factors that drive the time it takes to fix them. Using the commit
   history from the main development branch, we are able to identify the
   commit that first introduced 13 different types of simple stupid bugs in
   617 of the top Java projects on GitHub. Leveraging a statistical
   survival model and other non-parametric statistical tests, we found that
   there were two main categories of categorical variables that affect a
   bug's life; Time Factors and Author Factors. We find that bugs are fixed
   quicker if they are introduced and resolved by the same developer.
   Further, we discuss how the day of the week and time of day a buggy code
   was written and fixed affects its resolution time. These findings will
   provide vital insight to help the open-source community mitigate the
   abundance of code and can be used in future research to aid in
   bug-finding programs.},

   adaptive optics ophthalmoscopy using convolutional neural networks},
Journal = {SCIENTIFIC REPORTS},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {7},
Month = {JUL 26},
Abstract = {Imaging with an adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscope (AOSLO)
   enables direct visualization of the cone photoreceptor mosaic in the
   living human retina. Quantitative analysis of AOSLO images typically
   requires manual grading, which is time consuming, and subjective; thus,
   automated algorithms are highly desirable. Previously developed
   automated methods are often reliant on ad hoc rules that may not be
   transferable between different imaging modalities or retinal locations.
   In this work, we present a convolutional neural network (CNN) based
   method for cone detection that learns features of interest directly from
   training data. This cone-identifying algorithm was trained and validated
   on separate data sets of confocal and split detector AOSLO images with
   results showing performance that closely mimics the gold standard manual
   process. Further, without any need for algorithmic modifications for a
   specific AOSLO imaging system, our fully-automated multi-modality
   CNN-based cone detection method resulted in comparable results to
   previous automatic cone segmentation methods which utilized ad hoc rules
   for different applications. We have made free open-source software for
   the proposed method and the corresponding training and testing datasets
   available online.},

Abstract = {This paper presents the design and implementation of the HARK robot
   audition software system consisting of sound source localization
   modules, sound source separation modules and automatic speech
   recognition modules of separated speech signals that works on any robot

   should provide an easy way to adapt to them. HARK provides a set of
   modules to cope with various auditory environments by using an
   open-sourced middleware, FlowDesigner, and reduces the overheads of data
   transfer between modules. HARK has been open-sourced since April 2008.
   The resulting implementation of HARK with MUSIC-based sound source
   localization, GSS-based sound source separation and Missing Feature
   Theory-based automatic speech recognition on Honda ASIMO, SIG2 and

Abstract = {The measurement of gene expression using fluorescence markers has been a

   some cases improve, extant methods into a single software tool, written
   as a package in the R statistical framework. The workflow is validated
   using Escherichia coli engineered to express green fluorescent protein
   (GFP) from a set of commonly used constitutive promoters. We then
   demonstrate the package's power by identifying the time evolution of
   distinct subpopulations of bacteria from bulk plate reader data, a task
   previously reliant on laborious flow cytometry or colony counting
   experiments. Along with standardized parts and experimental methods, the

Abstract = {This article contributes towards knowledge and understanding of the

   from a need to reassess strategic spending within an academic department

   most practical way of assessing the use of Linux, a completely open
   source software platform with the aim of understanding how compositional
   paradigms migrate between computer operating systems, noting
   similarities between systems, and highlighting strengths and weaknesses
   of the process.
   It is apparent that the Linux platform has much to offer, but remains
   limited in a number of areas of music IT that are used extensively in
   academia, industry and at home. However, as a platform for teaching and
   learning computer music it is an ideal tool, though we conclude that
   some `introduction' at the outset is required for those who are
   uninitiated to a Linux-based system. The teaching and learning

Title = {Building a virtual simulation platform for quasistatic breast ultrasound
   elastography using open source software: A preliminary investigation},
Journal = {MEDICAL PHYSICS},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {42},
Number = {9},
Pages = {5453-5466},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Purpose: Quasistatic ultrasound elastography (QUE) is being used to
   augment in vivo characterization of breast lesions. Results from early
   clinical trials indicated that there was a lack of confidence in image
   interpretation. Such confidence can only be gained through rigorous
   imaging tests using complex, heterogeneous but known media. The
   objective of this study is to build a virtual breast QUE simulation
   platform in the public domain that can be used not only for innovative
   QUE research but also for rigorous imaging tests.
   Methods: The main thrust of this work is to streamline biomedical
   ultrasound simulations by leveraging existing open source software
   packages including Field II (ultrasound simulator), VTK (geometrical
   visualization and processing), FEBio {[}finite element (FE) analysis],
   and Tetgen (mesh generator). However, integration of these open source
   packages is nontrivial and requires interdisciplinary knowledge. In the
   first step, a virtual breast model containing complex anatomical
   geometries was created through a novel combination of image-based
   landmark structures and randomly distributed (small) structures.
   Image-based landmark structures were based on data from the NIH Visible
   Human Project. Subsequently, an unstructured FE-mesh was created by
   Tetgen. In the second step, randomly positioned point scatterers were
   placed within the meshed breast model through an octree-based algorithm
   to make a virtual breast ultrasound phantom. In the third step, an
   ultrasound simulator (Field II) was used to interrogate the virtual
   breast phantom to obtain simulated ultrasound echo data. Of note, tissue
   deformation generated using a FE-simulator (FEBio) was the basis of
   deforming the original virtual breast phantom in order to obtain the
   postdeformation breast phantom for subsequent ultrasound simulations.
   Using the procedures described above, a full cycle of QUE simulations
   involving complex and highly heterogeneous virtual breast phantoms can
   be accomplished for the first time.
   Results: Representative examples were used to demonstrate capabilities
   of this virtual simulation platform. In the first set of three
   ultrasound simulation examples, three heterogeneous volumes of interest
   were selected from a virtual breast ultrasound phantom to perform
   sophisticated ultrasound simulations. These resultant B-mode images
   realistically represented the underlying complex but known media. In the
   second set of three QUE examples, advanced applications in QUE were
   simulated. The first QUE example was to show breast tumors with complex
   shapes and/or compositions. The resultant strain images showed complex
   patterns that were normally seen in freehand clinical ultrasound data.
   The second and third QUE examples demonstrated (deformation-dependent)
   nonlinear strain imaging and time-dependent strain imaging,
   respectively.
   Conclusions: The proposed virtual QUE platform was implemented and
   successfully tested in this study. Through show-case examples, the
   proposed work has demonstrated its capabilities of creating
   sophisticated QUE data in a way that cannot be done through the
   manufacture of physical tissue-mimicking phantoms and other software.
   This open software architecture will soon be made available in the

Abstract = {To meet the demands of research and precise point positioning (PPP) in a
   multi-GNSS environment, we developed a GNSS data processing software
   named multi-GNSS automatic precise positioning software (MG-APP). MG-APP
   is an open-source software that can be run on Windows/Linux/UNIX and
   other operating systems. It can simultaneously process
   GPS/GLONASS/BDS/Galileo observations using a Kalman filter or a square
   root information filter (SRIF). Compared to the Kalman filter, the SRIF
   has better numerical stability and maintains stable convergence even
   with a significant round-off error. MG-APP has a comprehensive and
   friendly graphical user interface that conveniently allows the user to
   select models and set parameters. It also contains several types of
   tropospheric and estimation models that make it easy to analyze the
   impact of different models and parameters on PPP data processing. After
   the data processing finishes, zenith tropospheric delays, receiver clock
   offsets, satellite ambiguity parameters, observation residuals, and
   other results will be saved into files. Users can further analyze the
   solution results and construct graphs easily.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is an important asset in today's
   software-intensive society. The success of OSS projects is highly
   dependent on a number of factors. These factors must be understood and
   managed as an OSS project progresses. Thus, project management of an OSS
   project has a decisive role in ensuring the success of its software. The
   objective of the research is to increase the understanding of the
   resources affecting the competitiveness of OSS projects. Herewith, the
   responsiveness of OSS projects to users' needs is assessed via an
   investigation of the defect-fixing process. A Resource-Based View of the
   firm (RBV) is used to build theoretical justifications for a set of
   hypotheses proposed in this study. Data gathered from 427 OSS projects
   confirmed that developers' interest in and users' contribution to the
   project as well as frequently updating and releasing the software affect
   the project's ability to gain competitive advantage through effective
   defect-fixing. It is also shown that OSS projects that are more popular
   and have a higher level of organizational communication than others are
   more likely to gain competitive advantage through effective
   defect-fixing. Finally, implications of the results for practitioners
   and the research community are presented. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. APM and

Abstract = {It has often been found that students appreciate hands-on work, and find

   incorporating the student as an actor rather than a spectator. Robotics
   applications are especially well-suited for IBL due to the value of
   trial and error experience, the multiple possibilities for students to
   implement their own ideas, and the importance of programming,
   problem-solving, and electro-mechanical skills in real world engineering
   and science jobs. Furthermore, robotics platforms can be useful teaching
   media and learning tools for a variety of topics. Here, we present
   RoboGen: an open-source, web-based, software, and hardware platform for

Abstract = {Integrated Water Management at the Basin level is a concept that was
   introduced in the 1990s and is a goal in every national and local water
   management plan. Unfortunately this goal has not been achieved mainly
   due to a lack of both tools and data management, as data must be
   gathered from different sources and in different formats. Compounding
   this problem is the fact that in some regions different water agencies
   are in charge of water supply as is the case in the Basin of Mexico, in
   which Mexico City and its Metropolitan Zone are located. The inhabitants
   of the Basin of Mexico, which comprises five different political
   entities and in which different agencies are in charge of water supply
   rely on the Basin's aquifer system as its main water supply source.
   However, a regional hydrogeological database in this area does not exist
   which is why the use of both a Relational Database Management System
   (RDMBS) and a Geographic Information System (GIS) is proposed in order
   to improve regional data management in the study area. Data stored in
   this new database, the Basin of Mexico Hydrogeological Database (BMHDB)
   comprise data on climatological, borehole and run-off variables, readily
   providing information for the development of hydrogeological models. A
   simple example is used to show how geostatistical analysis can be done
   using the data directly from the BMHDB. The structure of the BMHDB
   allows easy maintenance and updating, representing a valuable tool for
   the development of regional studies. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

Title = {Raising the general public's awareness and adoption of open source
   software through social Q\&A interactions},
Journal = {ONLINE INFORMATION REVIEW},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {39},
Number = {1},
Pages = {119-139},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to examine the general public's
   information needs concerning open source software (OSS) and OSS
   answerers' motivations for sharing their knowledge of OSS in social
   Q\&A.
   Design/methodology/approach - Two studies were carried out. In Study 1,
   a content analysis classifying OSS-related questions posted during
   December 2005-December 2012 in Yahoo! Answers was employed to
   investigate the general public's information needs regarding OSS. In
   Study 2, an online survey was conducted with OSS answerers in Yahoo!
   Answers in order to examine what motivates them to share and continue to
   share their knowledge of OSS in social Q\&A. In total, 1,463 invitations
   were sent out via Yahoo! Answers' internal e-mail function to those who
   provided answers to OSS-related questions during September
   2009-September 2012. In total, 150 usable surveys were returned and used
   for data analysis.
   Findings - The findings from Study 1 indicate that the general public is
   most interested in finding out if there is OSS that meets their software
   need in a certain category (51.4 percent). Other popular question
   categories include the general description of OSS (15.6 percent),
   technical issues that they have with OSS (9.8 percent), and the
   advantages/disadvantages of using OSS (7.0 percent). Results on OSS
   answerers' motivations from Study 2 support that all seven motivations
   identified (i.e. altruism, enjoyment, ideology, learning, reputation,
   reciprocity, and self-efficacy) are important, with the smallest mean
   value being 4.42 out of seven (i.e. reciprocity). However, only
   altruism, ideology, self-efficacy, and enjoyment were found to
   significantly influence contribution continuance intention.
   Practical implications - With social Q\&A growing in popularity, OSS
   communities that look for ways to draw in more users from the general
   public are recommended to increase their presence in social Q\&A. The
   findings with regard to OSS answerers' motivations can also help OSS
   community leaders attract and guide more members who are interested in
   sharing their OSS knowledge in social Q\&A.
   Originality/value - By classifying OSS-related questions that are
   publicly available in Yahoo! Answers, this study offers a breakdown of
   the general public's information needs regarding OSS. In addition,
   results on OSS answerers' motivations suggest that in order to sustain
   their member contributions in social Q\&A, OSS community leaders should
   pay more attention to nurturing the motivations that are intrinsic (i.e.
   altruism, self-efficacy, enjoyment) and integrated (i.e. ideology).},

   Remote Image Manager-Educational 2 (GRIME2) is a mature, open-source
   commercial friendly software application that automatically detects and
   measures water level in laboratory and field settings. The software
   relies on a dedicated target background for water line detection and
   image calibration. The system detects the change in pixel gray scale
   values associated with the intersection of the water level at the target
   surface. Fiducials on the target background are used to precisely create
   a pixel to real world coordinate transfer matrix and to correct for
   camera movement. The presented software package implements the
   algorithms and automates the water level measurement process, annotation
   of images with result overlays, creation of animations, and output of
   results to files that can be further analyzed in a spreadsheet or with R
   or Python. These GRIME2 features are illustrated using imagery from a
   coastal marsh field site. Tradeoffs between workflow and algorithm
   complexity and ease of use are discussed and future improvements are
   identified with the intention that this Findable, Accessible,
   Interoperable, and Reusable-inspired software can be adopted, modified
   and improved by the user community. While image resolution, quality and
   other factors associated with field deployment (e.g., water surface
   roughness, sun glare, shadows, and bio-fouling) will have an impact on
   measurement quality, previous controlled laboratory testing that did not

Abstract = {The pervasiveness of multi-stability in nonlinear dynamical systems
   calls for novel concepts of stability and a consistent quantification of
   long-term behavior. The basin stability is a global stability metric
   that builds on estimating the basin of attraction volumes by Monte Carlo
   sampling. The computation involves extensive numerical time
   integrations, attractor characterization, and clustering of
   trajectories. We introduce bSTAB, an open-source software project that
   aims at enabling researchers to efficiently compute the basin stability
   of their dynamical systems with minimal efforts and in a highly
   automated manner. The source code, available at , is available for the
   programming language Matlab featuring parallelization for distributed
   computing, automated sensitivity and bifurcation analysis as well as
   plotting functionalities. We illustrate the versatility and robustness
   of bSTAB for four canonical dynamical systems from several fields of
   nonlinear dynamics featuring periodic and chaotic dynamics, complicated
   multi-stability, non-smooth dynamics, and fractal basins of attraction.
   The bSTAB projects aims at fostering interdisciplinary scientific
   collaborations in the field of nonlinear dynamics and is driven by the
   interaction and contribution of the community to the software package.},

Abstract = {The Fraunhofer thermal object model (FTOM) predicts the temperature of
   an object as a function of the environmental conditions. The model has
   an outer layer exchanging radiation and heat with the environment and a
   stack of layers beyond modifying the thermal behavior. The orientation
   of the layer is defined by the normal vector of the surface. The
   innermost layer is at a constant or variable temperature called core
   temperature. All the layers have heat capacity and thermal conductivity.
   The outer layers properties are color (visible), emissivity (IR),
   coefficients of free and forced convection, and a factor for latent
   heat. The environmental parameters are air temperature, wind speed,
   relative humidity, irradiation of the sun, and thermal radiation of the
   sky and ground. The properties of the model (7 parameters) are fitted to
   minimize the difference between the prediction and a time series of
   measured temperatures. The size of the time series is one or more days
   with 288 values per day (5 minute resolution). The model is useable for
   very different objects like backgrounds (meadow, forest, rocks, sand, or
   bricks) or parts of objects like vehicles.
   The STANDCAM is a decoy of a vehicle and is used to constitute a thermal
   signature and is not classified. The STANDCAM has a complex CAD-Model
   with thousands of triangular facets that had to be simplified for the
   thermal simulation. The CAD model was available through WTD 52, an
   agency of the Federal Office of Bundeswehr Equipment, Information
   Technology and In-Service Support (BAAINBw). Groups of elements of the
   model facing in the same direction and behaving similarly were cut out
   and grouped in distinct objects. The calculation of the temperature of
   the objects is based on measured environmental data and the model
   parameters are fitted on measured radiation temperatures of the objects
   and backgrounds.
   For the visualization the object is surrounded by a world texture. For
   the radiation temperature of the environment and the ground under the
   object measured air and meadow temperatures were used. The temperature
   is coded as a color from a palette (here we use a grey palette) and is
   updated regularly throughout the calculation of the scene for the
   selected view and is stored as a texture bitmap. The animation of the
   temperature textures is directly performed by BLENDER. The result of the
   visualization is available as movie that is watchable in real time or
   time lapse.},

Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2016},

Month = {JAN 29},
Abstract = {We present the software library marathon, which is designed to support
   the analysis of sampling algorithms that are based on the Markov-Chain
   Monte Carlo principle. The main application of this library is the
   computation of properties of so-called state graphs, which represent the
   structure of Markov chains. We demonstrate applications and the
   usefulness of marathon by investigating the quality of several bounding
   methods on four well-known Markov chains for sampling perfect matchings
   and bipartite graphs. In a set of experiments, we compute the total
   mixing time and several of its bounds for a large number of input
   instances. We find that the upper bound gained by the famous canonical
   path method is often several magnitudes larger than the total mixing
   time and deteriorates with growing input size. In contrast, the spectral
   bound is found to be a precise approximation of the total mixing time.},

Abstract = {Background: Many biological laboratories that deal with genomic samples
   are facing the problem of sample tracking, both for pure laboratory
   management and for efficiency. Our laboratory exploits PCR techniques
   and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) methods to perform high-throughput
   integration site monitoring in different clinical trials and scientific
   projects. Because of the huge amount of samples that we process every
   year, which result in hundreds of millions of sequencing reads, we need
   to standardize data management and tracking systems, building up a
   scalable and flexible structure with web-based interfaces, which are
   usually called Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS).
   Methods: We started collecting end-users' requirements, composed of
   desired functionalities of the system and Graphical User Interfaces
   (GUI), and then we evaluated available tools that could address our
   requirements, spanning from pure LIMS to Content Management Systems
   (CMS) up to enterprise information systems. Our analysis identified
   ADempiere ERP, an open source Enterprise Resource Planning written in
   Java J2EE, as the best software that also natively implements some
   highly desirable technological advances, such as the high usability and
   modularity that grants high use-case flexibility and software
   scalability for custom solutions.
   Results: We extended and customized ADempiere ERP to fulfil LIMS
   requirements and we developed adLIMS. It has been validated by our
   end-users verifying functionalities and GUIs through test cases for PCRs
   samples and pre-sequencing data and it is currently in use in our
   laboratories. adLIMS implements authorization and authentication
   policies, allowing multiple users management and roles definition that
   enables specific permissions, operations and data views to each user.
   For example, adLIMS allows creating sample sheets from stored data using
   available exporting operations. This simplicity and process
   standardization may avoid manual errors and information backtracking,
   features that are not granted using track recording on files or
   spreadsheets.
   Conclusions: adLIMS aims to combine sample tracking and data reporting
   features with higher accessibility and usability of GUIs, thus allowing
   time to be saved on doing repetitive laboratory tasks, and reducing
   errors with respect to manual data collection methods. Moreover, adLIMS
   implements automated data entry, exploiting sample data multiplexing and
   parallel/transactional processing. adLIMS is natively extensible to cope
   with laboratory automation through platform-dependent API interfaces,
   and could be extended to genomic facilities due to the ERP
   functionalities.},

Abstract = {Camera-based in-vivo optical imaging can provide detailed images of
   living tissue that reveal structure, function, and disease. Highspeed,
   high resolution imaging can reveal dynamic events such as changes in
   blood flow and responses to stimulation. Despite these benefits,
   commercially available scientific cameras rarely include software that
   is suitable for in-vivo imaging applications, making this highly
   versatile form of optical imaging challenging and time-consuming to
   implement. To address this issue, we have developed a novel, open-source
   software package to control high-speed, multispectral optical imaging
   systems. The software integrates a number of modular functions through a
   custom graphical user interface (GUI) and provides extensive control
   over a wide range of inexpensive IEEE 1394 Firewire cameras.
   Multispectral illumination can be incorporated through the use of
   off-the-shelf light emitting diodes which the software synchronizes to
   image acquisition via a programmed microcontroller, allowing arbitrary
   high-speed illumination sequences. The complete software suite is
   available for free download. Here we describe the software's framework
   and provide details to guide users with development of this and similar
   software. (C) 2010 Optical Society of America},

Abstract = {During software maintenance activities an accurate prediction of the
   bug-fixing time can support software managers to better resources and
   time allocation. In this work, each bug report is endowed with a
   response variable (bug-fixing time), external to its words, that we are
   interested in predicting. To analyze the bug reports collections, we
   used a supervised Latent Dirichlet Allocation (sLDA), whose goal is to
   infer latent topics that are predictive of the response. The bug reports
   and the responses are jointly modeled, to find latent topics that will
   best predict the response variables for future unlabeled bug reports.
   With a fitted model in hand, we can infer the topic structure of an
   unlabeled bug report and then form a prediction of its response. sLDA
   adds to LDA a response variable connected to each bug report. Two
   different variants of the bag-of-words (BoW) model are used as baseline
   discriminative algorithms and also an unsupervised LDA is considered. To
   evaluate the proposed approach the defect tracking dataset of LiveCode,
   a well-known and large dataset, was used. Results show that SLDA
   improves recall of the predicted bug-fixing times compared to other BoW
   single topic or multi-topic supervised algorithms.},

Journal = {FRONTIERS IN NEUROINFORMATICS},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {12},
Month = {APR 4},
Abstract = {Acquisition, analysis and simulation of electrophysiological properties
   of the nervous system require multiple software packages. This makes it
   difficult to conserve experimental metadata and track the analysis
   performed. It also complicates certain experimental approaches such as
   online analysis. To address this, we developed NeuroMatic, an
   open-source software toolkit that performs data acquisition (episodic,
   continuous and triggered recordings), data analysis (spike rasters,
   spontaneous event detection, curve fitting, stationarity) and
   simulations (stochastic synaptic transmission, synaptic short-term
   plasticity, integrate-and-fire and Hodgkin-Huxley-like
   single-compartment models). The merging of a wide range of tools into a
   single package facilitates a more integrated style of research, from the
   development of online analysis functions during data acquisition, to the
   simulation of synaptic conductance trains during dynamic-clamp
   experiments. Moreover, NeuroMatic has the advantage of working within
   Igor Pro, a platform-independent environment that includes an extensive
   library of built-in functions, a history window for reviewing the user's
   workflow and the ability to produce publication-quality graphics. Since
   its original release, NeuroMatic has been used in a wide range of
   scientific studies and its user base has grown considerably. NeuroMatic
   version 3.0 can be found at http://www.neuromatic.thinkrandom.com and

   the use of an OSS is actually hard for its beginners, because many OSSes
   have few good manuals, where they have usually been developed by
   volunteers. Besides, the installation of an OSS package sometimes
   requires installations of multiple OSS packages to be integrated
   together In this paper we propose a method of automatically generating
   an installation manual of an OSS package, including the one requiring
   the integration of multiple OSS packages. Then, we implement the
   proposed method for evaluations. Our experimental results in
   installations of OSS packages including the one requiring the
   integration of four packages by generated manuals verify the
   effectiveness of our method.},

Abstract = {Urban polycentricity has become a key concept in urban and regional
   studies and is increasingly adopted as an organizational framework for
   conducting empirical research. Within this literature, polycentric urban
   regions are commonly defined as territories that have multiple,
   proximately located (sub)centers and are characterized by balanced urban
   development. However, analytical-operational frameworks to identify and
   classify PURs are often ad hoc efforts to answer a specific research
   question and underlying work is often shelved rather than shared and/or
   made accessible. As a result, challenges associated with
   generalizability, reproducibility, and replicability clearly loom large
   in the urban polycentricity literature. Against this backdrop, this
   article describes the discrepancy between a rich debate on
   polycentricity and the paucity of tools enabling the disambiguation and
   reproducibility of results claimed by various authors around this
   polysemic concept. We present an online and open tool-PURban-that brings
   together the major analytical-operational frameworks and data sets in
   urban polycentricity research and allows parametrizing key operational
   choices. To illustrate the tool, we demonstrate how it facilitates the
   identification, mapping and analysis of degrees of morphological
   polycentricity in European urban systems. We conclude by reflecting on
   how this tool can act as a catalyst for future research on urban
   polycentricity.},

Journal = {MEDICAL PHYSICS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {49},
Number = {11},

Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Background Dose-outcome studies in radiation oncology have historically
   excluded spatial information due to dose-volume histograms being the
   most dominant source of dosimetric information. In recent years,
   dose-surface maps (DSMs) have become increasingly popular for
   characterization of spatial dose distributions and identification of
   radiosensitive subregions for hollow organs. However, methodological
   variations and lack of open-source, publicly offered code-sharing
   between research groups have limited reproducibility and wider adoption.
   Purpose This paper presents rtdsm, an open-source software for DSM
   calculation with the intent to improve the reproducibility of and the
   access to DSM-based research in medical physics and radiation oncology.
   Methods A literature review was conducted to identify essential
   functionalities and prevailing calculation approaches to guide
   development. The described software has been designed to calculate DSMs
   from DICOM data with a high degree of user customizability and to
   facilitate DSM feature analysis. Core functionalities include DSM
   calculation, equivalent dose conversions, common DSM feature extraction,
   and simple DSM accumulation. Results A number of use cases were used to
   qualitatively and quantitatively demonstrate the use and usefulness of
   rtdsm. Specifically, two DSM slicing methods, planar and noncoplanar,
   were implemented and tested, and the effects of method choice on output
   DSMs were demonstrated. An example comparison of DSMs from two different
   treatments was used to highlight the use cases of various built-in
   analysis functions for equivalent dose conversion and DSM feature
   extraction. Conclusions We developed and implemented rtdsm as a
   standalone software that provides all essential functionalities required
   to perform a DSM-based study. It has been made freely accessible under
   an open-source license on Github to encourage collaboration and
   community use.},

Abstract = {National greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories are essential for public
   policy planning to mitigate GHG emissions. They provide critical
   information and enhance environmental integrity in planning and
   development of GHG mitigation policy.
   The characteristics of a high quality inventory are that it follows good
   practice according to the IPCC guidelines. The key components of good
   practice are that the inventory is transparent to others, has accurate
   and complete emissions estimates for all gases, sources and sinks; has
   consistent application of methods across time; and is comparable to
   inventories from other countries {[}1]. While developed countries
   struggle with implementation of good practice, most can produce
   reasonably high quality inventories {[}2]. However, the task is more
   challenging in low lying pacific island countries. Some of the specific
   challenges include: lack of clarity on roles and responsibilities of
   agencies in preparing inventories; small teams with limited resources;
   difficulty in retaining expertise; incomplete or non-existent activity
   data; inconsistent data between inventories; absence of an archiving
   system for previous inventories; no QA/QC plan {[}3].
   As part of the UN-REDD Programme project on ``Strengthening Regional
   Support to National Forest Monitoring Systems for REDD+ in the
   Pacific{''} a Regional Monitoring System has been developed to support
   low lying pacific island countries (Republic of Palau, Tuvalu, Cook
   Islands, Tonga, Republic of Kiribati, and Federated States of
   Micronesia). Using the Republic of Palau as a case study, we present
   this system and focus on four main challenges; 1) improving activity
   data compilation through systematic land use assessment 2) application
   of simple land use mapping algorithms 3) application of a regional
   geo-spatial portal to support improved data management 4) application of
   open-source land use analysis systems to help manage and analyze
   inventory data.},

Abstract = {Ineffective evaluation of open-source software learning management
   system (OSS-LMS) packages can negatively impact organizational
   effectiveness. Clients may struggle to select the best OSS-LMS package
   from a wide range of options, leading to a complex multi-criteria group
   decision -making (MCGDM) problem. This evaluates OSS-LMS packages based
   on several criteria like us-ability, functionality, e-learning
   standards, reliability, activity tracking, course development,
   assess-ment, backup and recovery, error reporting, efficiency, operating
   system compatibility, computer -managed instruction, authentication,
   authorization, troubleshooting, maintenance, upgrading, and scalability.
   Handling uncertain data is a vital aspect of OSS-LMS package evaluation.
   To tackle MCGDM issues, this study presents a consensus weighted sum
   product (c-WASPAS) method which is applied to an educational OSS-LMS
   package selection problem to evaluate four OSS-LMS pack-ages, namely
   ATutor, eFront, Moodle, and Sakai. The findings indicate that the
   priority order of alternatives is Moodle > Sakai > eFront > ATutor and,
   therefore, MOODLE is the best OSS-LMS package for the case study. A
   sensitivity analysis of criteria weights is also conducted, as well as a
   comparative study, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed
   method. It is essential to note that proper OSS-LMS package evaluation
   is crucial to avoid negative impacts on organizational per-formance. By
   addressing MCGDM issues and dealing with uncertain information, the
   c-WASPAS method presented in this study can assist clients in selecting
   the most appropriate OSS-LMS pack-age from multiple alternatives. The
   findings of this study can benefit educational institutions and other
   organizations that rely on OSS-LMS packages to run their operations.},

Title = {``Constructing the users{''} in open source software development An
   interpretive case study of user participation},
Journal = {INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY \& PEOPLE},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {22},
Number = {2},
Pages = {132-156},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to report findings from an
   interpretive case study on user participation in the open source
   software (OSS) development context.
   Design/methodology/approach - Through an empirical, interpretive case
   study and a literature review utilising the metaphor of text in the
   analysis, this paper provides a refined conceptualisation of user
   participation in OSS development.
   Findings - The paper reveals that different kinds of meanings have been
   attached to users and to their participation. User participation is both
   direct and indirect in the OSS development context. Some user groups
   actively take part in OSS development, while others are merely
   represented in it. Different kinds of intermediaries ``representing the
   users{''} are identified.
   Research limitations/implications - The research is based on one case
   study on a small but active OSS project with an interest in users. Other
   kinds of OSS projects should be analysed. The analysis was focused on a
   discussion forum, but users can take part in OSS development by other
   means as well. Paths for future work should include the gathering of
   more varied empirical data.
   Practical implications - The findings indicate that users can provide
   feedback to the development through discussion forums in the distributed
   environment, but there is a need to support the users in doing so and
   the developers in analysing the data. The importance of different kinds
   of intermediaries ``representing the users{''} is highlighted.
   Originality/value - The paper provides thorough empirical insights and a
   refined conceptualisation of user participation addressing the currently
   weakly empirically explored OSS development context.},

Title = {Empirical analysis of search based algorithms to identify change prone

Journal = {COMPUTER LANGUAGES SYSTEMS \& STRUCTURES},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {47},
Number = {2},
Pages = {211-231},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {There are numerous reasons leading to change in software such as
   changing requirements, changing technology, increasing customer demands,
   fixing of defects etc. Thus, identifying and analyzing the change-prone
   classes of the software during software evolution is gaining wide
   importance in the field of software engineering. This would help
   software developers to judiciously allocate the resources used for
   testing and maintenance. Software metrics can be used for constructing
   various classification models which can be used for timely
   identification of change prone classes. Search based algorithms which
   form a subset of machine learning algorithms can be utilized for
   constructing prediction models to identify change prone classes of
   software. Search based algorithms use a fitness function to find the
   best optimal solution among all the possible solutions. In this work, we
   analyze the effectiveness of hybridized search based algorithms for
   change prediction. In other words, the aim of this work is to find
   whether search based algorithms are capable for accurate model
   construction to predict change prone classes. We have also constructed
   models using machine learning techniques and compared the performance of
   these models with the models constructed using Search Based Algorithms.
   The validation is carried out on two open source Apache projects, Rave
   and Commons Math. The results prove the effectiveness of hybridized
   search based algorithms in predicting change prone classes of software.
   Thus, they can be utilized by the software developers to produce an
   efficient and better developed software. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

Volume = {22},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {This paper provides a new open -source software, named BioReactPy, for
   simulation of microbial -mediated coupled processes of flow and reactive
   transport in porous media. The software is based on the microcontinuum
   approach, and geochemistry is handled in a fully coupled manner with
   biomass -nutrient growth treated with Monod equation in a single
   integrated framework, without dependencies on third party packages. The
   distinguishing features of the software, its design principles, and
   formulation of multiphysics problems and discretizations are discussed.
   Validation of the Python implementation using several established
   benchmarks for flow, reactive transport, and biomass growth is
   presented. The flexibility of the framework is then illustrated by
   simulations of highly non -linearly coupled flow and microbial reactive
   transport at conditions relevant to carbon mineralization for CO 2
   storage. All results can be reproduced by openly available simulation
   scripts.},

   statistical models. This paper begins with a brief description of the
   representational and computational aspects of the framework. Following
   that is a detailed description of GMTK's features, including a language
   for specifying structures and probability distributions, logarithmic
   space exact training and decoding procedures, the concept of switching
   parents, and a generalized EM training method which allows arbitrary
   sub-Gaussian parameter tying. Taken together, these features endow GMTK
   with a degree of expressiveness and functionality that significantly
   complements other publically available packages. GMTK was recently used
   in the 2001 Johns Hopkins Summer Workshop, and experimental results are
   described in detail both herein and in a companion paper.},

Abstract = {Due to its speed, accuracy, and adaptability to varioussampletypes,
   matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry(MALDI-MS)
   has become a popular method to identify molecular isotopeprofiles from
   biological samples. Often MALDI-MS data do not includetandem MS
   fragmentation data, and thus the identification of compoundsin samples
   requires external databases so that the accurate mass ofdetected signals
   can be matched to known molecular compounds. Mostrelevant MALDI-MS
   software tools developed to confirm compound identificationsare focused
   on small molecules (e.g., metabolites,lipids) and cannot be easily
   adapted to protein data due to theirmore complex isotopic distributions.
   Here, we present an R packagecalled IsoMatchMS for the automated
   annotation ofMALDI-MS data for multiple datatypes: intact proteins,
   peptides, andglycans. This tool accepts already derived molecular
   formulas or,for proteomics applications, can derive molecular formulas
   from alist of input peptides or proteins including proteins with
   post-translationalmodifications. Visualization of all matched isotopic
   profiles is providedin a highly accessible HTML format called a
   trelliscope display, whichallows users to filter and sort by several
   parameters such as matchscores and the number of peaks matched.
   IsoMatchMS simplifies the annotation and visualization of MALDI-MS data

   novo molecular generation and cheminformatics},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CHEMINFORMATICS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {13},
Number = {1},
Month = {SEP 25},
Abstract = {Many contemporary cheminformatics methods, including computer-aided de
   novo drug design, hold promise to significantly accelerate and reduce
   the cost of drug discovery. Thanks to this attractive outlook, the field
   has thrived and in the past few years has seen an especially significant
   growth, mainly due to the emergence of novel methods based on deep
   neural networks. This growth is also apparent in the development of
   novel de novo drug design methods with many new generative algorithms
   now available. However, widespread adoption of new generative techniques
   in the fields like medicinal chemistry or chemical biology is still
   lagging behind the most recent developments. Upon taking a closer look,
   this fact is not surprising since in order to successfully integrate the
   most recent de novo drug design methods in existing processes and
   pipelines, a close collaboration between diverse groups of experimental
   and theoretical scientists needs to be established. Therefore, to
   accelerate the adoption of both modern and traditional de novo molecular
   generators, we developed Generator User Interface (GenUI), a software
   platform that makes it possible to integrate molecular generators within
   a feature-rich graphical user interface that is easy to use by experts
   of diverse backgrounds. GenUI is implemented as a web service and its
   interfaces offer access to cheminformatics tools for data preprocessing,
   model building, molecule generation, and interactive chemical space
   visualization. Moreover, the platform is easy to extend with
   customizable frontend React.js components and backend Python extensions.
   GenUI is open source and a recently developed de novo molecular
   generator, DrugEx, was integrated as a proof of principle. In this work,
   we present the architecture and implementation details of GenUI and
   discuss how it can facilitate collaboration in the disparate communities
   interested in de novo molecular generation and computer-aided drug
   discovery.},

Journal = {PLOS ONE},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) has become one of the modern software
   development methods. OSS is mainly developed by developers, volunteers,
   and users all over the world, but its reliability has been widely
   questioned. When OSS faults are detected, volunteers or users send them
   to developers by email or network. After the developer confirms the
   fault, it will be randomly assigned to the debugger who may be a
   developer, a volunteer, or a user. These open source community
   contributors also have the phenomenon of learning when removing faults.
   When the detected faults are removed, the number of introduced faults
   decreases gradually. Therefore, this study proposes a software
   reliability model with the decreasing trend of fault introduction in the
   process of OSS development and testing. The validity of the proposed
   model and the accuracy of estimating residual faults are verified by
   experiments. The proposed model can be used to evaluate the reliability
   and predict the remaining faults in the actual OSS development and
   testing process.},

Abstract = {EU's vision of digital sovereignty conflicts with tools and platforms
   used in modern working life. We are dependent on software controlled by
   global technology giants.
   The dependence on commonly used services and platforms provided by
   Microsoft, Google or Amazon must be removed to achieve digital
   sovereignty. Open-source software has been readily available for a long
   time, but studies looking into excluding all proprietary software from
   working life are scarce. This paper investigates the feasibility of
   replacing proprietary software as a step towards digital sovereignty.
   The ability to self-host services is key to ensuring independence, and
   the ability to verify software code is key to ensuring integrity.
   Therefore open-source code and transparency are transient properties for
   sovereign software. We present problems by mapping the problematic
   software used by teachers, researchers and student assistants at Arcada
   UAS with a varied set of requirements on the digital tools of their
   daily lives. We research alternatives and deploy a suite of software
   compatible with EU policies on digital sovereignty.
   We rely on many services offered by tech giants in our professional
   lives. There are several open-source software suites that can be
   self-hosted and that have permissive licenses for business use.
   Extensive technical knowledge is required for the deployment of
   software. Most daily tasks can be accomplished by using sovereign
   software, although not all needs of the test group were met.
   Companies can deploy sovereign software for most daily tasks, reducing
   dependency on tech giants. However, software adoption was low. Arcadas
   IT-support does not host, enforce or endorse the usage of sovereign
   software. Public code repositories enable independent code verification,
   in contrast to proprietary software. Some software cannot be easily
   replaced, and digital habits are hard to change.},

   of materials, possibly from space? We tested two spectrometer designs
   inside a two unit (2U) cubesat frame against a series of materials
   exhibiting phenomenology in the visible/near infrared (Vis/NIR) portion
   of the spectrum and vegetation groups. This was conducted in order to
   determine whether open source designs were capable of discriminating
   against similar materials, such as types of vegetation or types of
   iron-rich minerals. A spectral pipeline was created using open source
   programming software that was capable of converting raw sensor data into
   spectra, comparing samples of interest against a spectral library and
   returning an identification result with a confidence interval. We found
   that low-cost hardware sensitive to NIR and freely available software
   were able to identify types of materials in the study set, enabling
   applications in citizen science, education and outreach or even low-cost
   near-space research.},

Abstract = {We examine whether a firm's intellectual property (IP) strategy in
   support of the open source software (OSS) community stimulates new OSS
   product entry by start-up software firms. In particular, we analyze the
   impact of strategic decisions taken by IBM around the mid-2000s, such as
   its announcement that it will not assert its patents against the OSS
   community and its creation of a patent commons. These decisions formed a
   coherent IP strategy in support of OSS. We find that IBM's actions
   stimulated new OSS product introductions by entrepreneurial firms and
   that their impact is increasing in the cumulativeness of innovation in
   the market and the extent to which patent ownership in the market is
   concentrated.},

Journal = {COMPUTATIONAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS IN MEDICINE},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {2013},
Abstract = {An extensible, flexible, multiscale, and multiphysics model for
   nonisometric skeletal muscle behavior is presented. The skeletal muscle
   chemoelectromechanical model is based on a bottom-up approach modeling
   the entire excitation-contraction pathway by strongly coupling a
   detailed biophysical model of a half-sarcomere to the propagation of
   action potentials along skeletal muscle fibers and linking cellular
   parameters to a transversely isotropic continuum-mechanical constitutive
   equation describing the overall mechanical behavior of skeletal muscle
   tissue. Since the multiscale model exhibits separable time scales, a
   special emphasis is placed on employing computationally efficient
   staggered solution schemes. Further, the implementation builds on the
   open-source software library OpenCMISS and uses state-of-the-art
   parallelization techniques taking advantage of the unique anatomical
   fiber architecture of skeletal muscles. OpenCMISS utilizes standardized
   data structures for geometrical aspects (FieldML) and cellular models
   (CellML). Both standards are designed to allow for a maximum
   flexibility, reproducibility, and extensibility. The results demonstrate
   the model's capability of simulating different aspects of nonisometric
   muscle contraction and efficiently simulating the chemoelectromechanical
   behavior in complex skeletal muscles such as the tibialis anterior
   muscle.},

Abstract = {As the AI revolution unfolds, the push toward automating support systems
   in diverse professional fields ranging from open-source software to
   healthcare, and banking to transportation has become more pronounced.
   Central to the automation of these systems is the early detection of
   named entities, a task that is foundational yet fraught with challenges
   due to the need for domain-specific expert annotations amid a backdrop
   of specialized terminologies, making the process both costly and
   complex. In response to this challenge, our paper presents an innovative
   named entity recognition (NER) framework (https://github.
   com/NeuralSentinel/DistALANER) tailored for the open-source software
   domain. Our method stands out by employing a distantly supervised,
   two-step annotation process that cleverly exploits language heuristics,
   bespoke lookup tables, external knowledge bases, and an active learning
   model. This multifaceted strategy not only elevates model performance
   but also addresses the critical hurdles of high costs and the dearth of
   expert annotators. A notable achievement of our approach is its
   capability to enable pre-large language models (pre-LLMs) to
   significantly outperform specially designed generic/domain specific LLMs
   for NER tasks. We also show the effectiveness of NER in the downstream
   task of relation extraction.},

   randomly selected OSS developers. Results indicate that short-term
   and/or tangible motivations (carrots) and long-term, value-based factors
   (rainbows) influence OSS developers' contribution likelihood. However,
   carrots are relatively more important. Further, we find that as internal
   self-efficacy increases, effect of OSS hiring behind contribution to OSS
   decreases. Our research contributes to theory and practice.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL PHYSICS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {159},

Month = {SEP 7},
Abstract = {Computing accurate yet efficient approximations to the solutions of the
   electronic Schrodinger equation has been a paramount challenge of
   computational chemistry for decades. Quantum Monte Carlo methods are a
   promising avenue of development as their core algorithm exhibits a
   number of favorable properties: it is highly parallel and scales
   favorably with the considered system size, with an accuracy that is
   limited only by the choice of the wave function Ansatz. The recently
   introduced machine-learned parametrizations of quantum Monte Carlo
   Ansatze rely on the efficiency of neural networks as universal function
   approximators to achieve state of the art accuracy on a variety of
   molecular systems. With interest in the field growing rapidly, there is
   a clear need for easy to use, modular, and extendable software libraries
   facilitating the development and adoption of this new class of methods.
   In this contribution, the DEEPQMC program package is introduced, in an
   attempt to provide a common framework for future investigations by
   unifying many of the currently available deep-learning quantum Monte
   Carlo architectures. Furthermore, the manuscript provides a brief
   introduction to the methodology of variational quantum Monte Carlo in
   real space, highlights some technical challenges of optimizing neural
   network wave functions, and presents example black-box applications of
   the program package. We thereby intend to make this novel field
   accessible to a broader class of practitioners from both the quantum
   chemistry and the machine learning communities.},

   The present study aimed at developing an exemplary application for the

   activity, students first download the maps of where they live from the
   Google Earth application; and then they carry out a number of tasks to
   create their own maps with all the aspects such as length, direction and
   so in order to develop their skills on map reading.
   In this present study, by doing such an exemplary lesson activity,
   students create maps of where they live; that is, they integrate

Abstract = {There is a vivid need for an effective, universal and easy-to-use
   software tool supporting visual attention analysis based on eye-tracking
   data using the areas of interest for objects moving within the system of
   coordinates in which gaze position is recorded. Thus, we decided to
   design such software using existing algorithms offered by the discipline
   of computer vision, with an intention the eye-tracking research
   community could freely use it. According to the tests carried out using
   two datasets, the MOTLD algorithm had the best efficiency among all
   implemented in the presented software in determining the dynamic areas
   of interest. Therefore, we recommend it as the default one. This paper
   presents the first version of the tool and is an invitation to
   collaborate on developing this software. (C) 2021 The Authors. Published

Abstract = {Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is widely used to model fluid flow
   and optimize industrial processes. The main obstacle to implement these
   methods to small businesses might be the price of commercial software.
   However, many cases do not necessarily require state-of-the-art
   algorithms and use of open-source software might be the best solution.
   The aim of the article was to study and present the capabilities of a
   solver Elmer FEM. Meshes were generated with Gmsh software and data
   visualization was done with the use of application ParaView, all of
   which are open-source software. The chosen software satisfied criteria
   of being simple to learn, being compatible with widely used file formats
   and having an active community. What is more, it allows the user to
   solve multiphysics problems. The object of simulations was a prototype
   of a graphene flow meter, developed by Industrial Research Institute for
   Automation and Measurements. The article focused on a key issue in most
   of the CFD simulations, which is turbulence modelling. Both RANS-based
   and Large Eddy Simulation models were tested. The process of setting up
   simulations and its results are presented.},

Abstract = {A great deal of production and consumption behavior takes place in the
   context of social organizations that seem to fall outside of the

   are voluntary in nature and rely on contributions from members to
   achieve their objectives. Examples include the Linux operating system
   and other FOSS projects, political movements, churches and religious
   groups, Habitat for Humanity, and similar charitable organizations. In
   this paper, we consider a world containing agents with heterogeneous
   abilities who may voluntarily choose to make effort contributions to one
   or more different public projects. Agents are motivated by a desire to
   be seen as significant contributors to important and valuable projects,
   the warm glow from the act of contributing, and a desire to directly
   enjoy the benefits of projects when complete. We find that contributions
   from others can be either strategic complements or substitutes. We show
   that Nash equilibria exist and study how agents' abilities and project
   quality affect the equilibrium levels of contributions.},

Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Generating digital speckle image and its corresponding deformed image is
   the basis of digital image correlation research. At present, however, it
   still lacks a powerful, easy-to-use, and user-friendly professional
   software concerning generation and assessment of digital speckle
   pattern. Researchers have to reimplement the generation algorithms in
   literature by themselves, which is time-consuming and error-prone. This
   paper reports a free and open-source software, Glare, for generation and
   assessment of digital speckle pattern. Glare has functions including
   generating speckle patterns, rendering deformed images, assessing
   pattern quality, and presenting pattern recommendations: Glare can
   generate ellipse, polygon, and Gaussian speckle patterns; can render
   deformed images with underlying deformation fields of translation,
   stretch/compression, rotation, sinusoidal deformation, Gaussian
   deformation, and Portevin-Le Chatelier band deformation; can calculate
   key pattern quality assessment parameters such as speckle coverage,
   speckle size, systematic error, and random error; can produce optimized
   speckle pattern in form of vector image. The software realizes real-time
   deformed image rendering with the aid of fast initial value estimation
   algorithm for backward mapping and pattern pre-rendering technique, and
   improves the computational efficiency of sum of square of subset
   intensity gradients by integral image method. In general, the software
   can be used not only for scientific research and engineering
   applications in digital image correlation community but also for
   education of experimental mechanics, and therefore has broad prospects.},

Abstract = {This study proposes a visualization that can assist computer scientists
   and data scientists to make decisions by exploring technology trends.
   While it is important for them to understand the technology trends in
   the rapidly changing computer science and data science fields, it takes
   considerable time and knowledge to acquire good information about these
   trends. Particularly, data/computer scientists with little experience in
   the field find it difficult to obtain information on such trends.
   Therefore, we propose a visualization system that can easily and quickly
   explore the technology trends in computer and data science. This study
   aims to identify the key technologies and developers in a specific
   field, and other technologies deeply related to specific technologies,
   and explore the changes in popularity of technologies, languages, and
   libraries over time. This study includes two case studies to obtain
   information using the proposed visualization. We demonstrate our system
   with GitHub repositories data.},

Abstract = {This paper presents an open-source software package, rSCA, which is
   developed based upon a stepwise cluster analysis method and serves as a
   statistical tool for modeling the relationships between multiple
   dependent and independent variables. The rSCA package is efficient in
   dealing with both continuous and discrete variables, as well as
   nonlinear relationships between the variables. It divides the sample
   sets of dependent variables into different subsets (or subclusters)
   through a series of cutting and merging operations based upon the theory
   of multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). The modeling results are
   given by a cluster tree, which includes both intermediate and leaf
   subclusters as well as the flow paths from the root of the tree to each
   leaf subcluster specified by a series of cutting and merging actions.
   The rSCA package is a handy and easy-to-use tool and is freely available
   at http://cran.r-project.org/package=rSCA. By applying the developed
   package to air quality management in an urban environment, we
   demonstrate its effectiveness in dealing with the complicated
   relationships among multiple variables in real-world problems.},

Abstract = {Biological semiflexible polymers and filaments such as collagen,
   fibronectin, actin, microtubules, coiled-coil proteins, DNA, siRNA,
   amyloid fibrils, etc., are ubiquitous in nature. In biology, these
   systems have a direct relation to critical processes ranging from the
   movement of actin or assembly of viruses at cellular interfaces to the
   growth of amyloid plaques in neuro-degenerative diseases. In technology
   and applied sciences, synthetic macromolecules or fibrous objects such
   as carbon nanotubes are involved in countless applications. Accessing
   their intrinsic properties at the single molecule level, such as their
   molecular conformations or intrinsic stiffness, is central to the
   understanding of these systems, their properties, and the design of
   related applications. In this Perspective we introduce FiberApp a new
   tracking and analysis software based on a cascade of algorithms
   describing structural and topological features of objects characterized
   by a very high length-to-width aspect ratio, generally described as
   ``fiber-like objects{''}. The program operates on images from any
   microscopic source (atomic force or transmission electron microscopy,
   optical, fluorescence, confocal, etc.), acquiring the spatial
   coordinates of objects by a semiautomated tracking procedure based on
   A{*} pathfinding algorithm followed by the application of active contour
   models and generating virtually any statistical, topological, and
   graphical output derivable from these coordinates. Demonstrative
   features of the software include statistical polymer physics analysis of
   fiber conformations, height, bond and pair correlation functions,
   mean-squared end-to-end distance and midpoint displacement, 2D order
   parameter, excess kurtosis, fractal exponent, height profile and its
   discrete Fourier transform, orientation, length, height, curvature, and
   kink angle distributions, providing an unprecedented structural
   description of filamentous synthetic and biological objects.},

   design and implement UAV control and mission software over ARINC 653.
   Especially we utilize our Linux-based ARINC-653, which can provide
   abundant development tools, software libraries, and device drivers due
   to the nature of Linux. Our control and mission software include

Abstract = {In this age of -omics data-guided big data revolution, metabolomics has
   received significant attention as compared to genomics, transcriptomics,
   and proteomics for its proximity to the phenotype, the promises it makes
   and the challenges it throws. Although metabolomes of entire organisms,
   organs, biofluids, and tissues are of immense interest, a cell-specific
   resolution is deemed critical for biomedical applications where a
   granular understanding of cellular metabolism at cell-type and
   subcellular resolution is desirable. Mass spectrometry (MS) is a
   versatile technique that is used to analyze a broad range of compounds
   from different species and cell-types, with high accuracy, resolution,
   sensitivity, selectivity, and fast data acquisition speeds. With recent
   advances in MS and spectroscopy-based platforms, the research community
   is able to generate high-throughput data sets from single cells.
   However, it is challenging to handle, store, process, analyze, and
   interpret data in a routine manner. In this treatise, I present a
   workflow of metabolomics data generation from single cells and
   single-cell types to their analysis, visualization, and interpretation
   for obtaining biological insights.},

   strategies to promote their products in a competitive way. Even the home
   pages of the web portals of well-known OSS products show technicalities

   the product's qualities. So, final users and even developers who are
   interested in evaluating and potentially adopting an OSS product are
   often negatively impressed by the quality perception they have from the
   web portal of the product and turn to proprietary software solutions or
   fail to adopt OSS that may be useful in their activities. In this paper,
   we define OP2A, an evaluation model and we derive a checklist that OSS
   developers and web masters can use to design (or improve) their web
   portals with all the contents that are expected to be of interest for
   OSS final users. We exemplify the use of the model by applying it to the
   Apache Tomcat web portal and we apply the model to 47 web sites of
   well-known OSS products to highlight the current deficiencies that

Abstract = {The competiveness of Open Source Software (OSS) communities depends on
   the quantity and combination of resources and competencies attracted to
   and retained at each stage of the innovation process. To this purpose,
   given the lack of proprietary control over source code, the way
   mechanisms of governance combine through a coherent and emergent process
   of governance is important to shaping the attractiveness and
   sustainability of these communities. Despite their importance, we still
   know little about how governance mechanisms are combined in 055
   communities. This paper contributes to filling part of that gap. The
   study is based on an explorative factor analysis conducted on a database
   of 40 case studies of OSS projects hosted in Freshmeat. The results show
   OSS governance is configurational, and highlights four likely

Abstract = {Mangrove forest has a major role in the process of human-environment
   interaction, but almost every mangrove forest in the world is under
   threat. In Indonesia alone, 25\% of South East Asia's mangroves are at a
   risk. The continued decline in mangrove forest induced by anthropogenic
   activity has made all the stakeholders who have the concern at the
   mangrove forest preservation worried, including the government. There
   were several programs have been performed by the government to preserve
   the mangrove forest. One of the programs was ``Mangrove Rehabilitation
   Program in three districts: Ciamis, Indramayu, and Subang{''} held by
   Forestry Department of West Java Province in 2007. The aims of this
   study were to assess the changes in mangrove forest area before the
   program performed and to evaluate the successfulness of the program,
   using the increasing of mangrove forest area as a parameter. This study
   was conducted only in Subang and Indramayu Districts of West Java,
   Indonesia. The assessment was conducted using Landsat 4-5 TM, Landsat 7
   ETM+, and Landsat 8 OLI acquired in 1996, 2006, and 2016 respectively.
   For each image, a supervised classification method was performed using
   open source GRASS GIS software. The resulting maps were then compared to
   quantify the changes. Field work activity conducted and confirmed the
   changes that occurred in the study areas. Our study shows that all of
   the two districts exhibit successfulness of the plantation program.
   Ground truth survey confirmed that the successfulness of the plantation
   program is due to the participation of communities in the area of study.
   This study also shows that by using open source software and freely
   available satellite images, the fast, robust, and reliable data as an
   initial step to monitor both short-term and long-term plantation program
   can be collected effectively and inexpensively.},

Title = {Striking a balance between trust anti control in a virtual organization:
   a content analysis of open source software case studies},
Journal = {INFORMATION SYSTEMS JOURNAL},
Year = {2001},
Volume = {11},

Abstract = {Many organization theorists have predicted the emergence of the
   networked or virtual firm as a model for the design of future
   organizations. Researchers have also emphasized the importance of trust
   as a necessary condition for ensuring the success of virtual
   organizations. This paper examines the open source software (OSS)
   `movement' as an example of a virtual organization and proposes a model
   that runs contrary to the belief that trust is critical for virtual
   organizations. Instead, I argue that various control mechanisms can
   ensure the effective performance of autonomous agents who participate in
   virtual organizations. Borrowing from the theory of the
   `McDonaldization' of society, I argue that, given a set of practices to
   ensure the control, efficiency, predictability and calculability of
   processes and outcomes in virtual organizations, effective performance
   may occur in the absence of trust. As support for my argument, I employ
   content analysis to examine a set of published case studies of OSS
   projects. My results show that, although that trust is rarely mentioned,
   ensuring control is an important criterion for effective performance
   within OSS projects. The case studies feature few references to other
   dimensions of `McDonaldization' (efficiency, predictability and
   calculability), however, and I conclude that the OSS movement relies on
   many other forms of social control and self-control, which are often
   unacknowledged in OSS projects. Through these implicit forms of control,
   OSS projects are able to secure the cooperation of the autonomous agents
   that participate in project teams. I conclude by extrapolating from
   these case studies to other virtual organizations.},

Abstract = {Free and open-source software projects have become essential digital

   and maintained by unpaid volunteers, presenting a potential
   vulnerability if the projects cannot recruit and retain new volunteers.
   At the same time, their development on open collaborative development
   platforms provides a nearly complete record of the community's
   interactions; this affords the opportunity to study naturally occurring
   language dynamics at scale and in a context with massive real-world
   impact. The present work takes a dynamical systems view of language to
   understand the ways in which communicative context and community
   membership shape the emergence and impact of language use-specifically,
   sentiment and expressions of gratitude. We then present evidence that
   these language dynamics shape newcomers' likelihood of returning,
   although the specific impacts of different community responses are
   crucially modulated by the context of the newcomer's first contact with
   the community.},

Abstract = {Currently, education has undergone great changes by going from
   face-to-face to virtual, due to the pandemic, this has meant an
   accelerated process and the evolution of pedagogy, which requires a
   change in the traditional model of teaching to a modern one, using
   technology as a tool that facilitates the teaching processes for
   meaningful learning in students, especially in the teaching of
   ecosys-tems in the subject of Natural Sciences. The research is part of
   the Cayambe Educational Unit, with the students of the two parallels of
   the tenth year of basic general edu-cation and teachers of the Natural
   Sciences area, with the main objective of implementing a virtual
   learning environ-ment (EVA) for the teaching of ecosystems in the area
   of Natural Sciences in the tenth year students, through an environmental
   interpretive path with free software, we wor-ked in coordination with
   the campus authorities to carry out the investigative process. Among the
   findings, it was evidenced that the traditional model continues to
   prevail despite the fact that there is a national curriculum with a
   constructivist approach and currently the stage of con-nectivity
   requires a constant search for new strategies using ICT for teaching,
   under this approach an educatio-nal resource was developed in Artsteps
   to overcome and improve understanding of ecosystems in Ecuador.},

   a professional software developer does not have this effect.

Title = {A novel workflow utilizing open-source software tools in the
   environmental fate studies: The example of imatinib biotransformation},
Journal = {SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {797},
Month = {NOV 25},
Abstract = {The aim of this study is to utilize novel and powerful workflows with
   publicly available tools to efficiently process data and facilitate
   rapid acquisition of knowledge on environmental fate studies. Taking
   imatinib (IMA) as an example, we developed an efficient workflow to
   describe IMA biodegradation with activated sludge (AS) from wastewater
   treatment plants (WWTP). IMA is a cytostatic pharmaceutical; a selective
   tyrosine kinase inhibitor used to treat chronic myeloid leukemia. Its
   reported ecotoxic, endocrine and genotoxic effects imply high risk for
   aquatic wildlife and human health, however its fate in the environment
   is not yet well known. The study was conducted in a batch
   biotransformation setup, at two AS concentration levels and in presence
   and absence of carbon source. Degradation profiles and formation of IMA
   transformation products (TPs) were investigated using
   UHPLC-QqOrbitrap-MS/MS which showed that IMA is readily biodegradable.
   TPs were determined using multivariate statistical analysis. Eight TPs
   were determined and tentatively identified, six of them for first time.
   Hydrolysis of amide bond, oxidation, demethylation, deamination,
   acetylation and succinylation are proposed as major biodegradation
   pathways. TP235, the product of amide bond hydrolysis, was detected and
   quantified in actual wastewaters, at levels around 1 ng/L. This calls
   for more studies on the environmental fate of IMA in order to properly
   asses the environmental risk and hazard associated to IMA and its TPs.

Abstract = {The success of a Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) project has
   been evaluated in the past through the number of commits made to its
   configuration management system, number of developers and number of
   users. Most studies, based on a popular FLOSS repository (SourceForge).
   have concluded that the vast majority of projects are failures.
   This Study's empirical results confirm and expand conclusions from an
   earlier and more limited work. Not only do projects from different
   repositories display different process and product characteristics, but
   a more general pattern can be observed. Projects may be considered as
   early inceptors in highly visible repositories, or as established
   projects within desktop-wide projects, or finally as structured parts of
   FLOSS distributions. These three possibilities ire formalized into a
   framework of transitions between repositories.
   The framework developed here provides a wider context in which results
   from FLOSS repository mining can be more effectively presented.
   Researchers can draw different conclusions based on the overall
   characteristics studied about an Open Source software project's
   potential for success, depending on the repository that they mine. These
   results also provide guidance to OSS developers when choosing where to
   host their project and how to distribute it to maximize its evolutionary
   success. (C) 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to map and monitor the
   environment has increased sharply in the last few years. Many
   individuals and organizations have purchased consumer-grade UAVs, and
   commonly acquire aerial photographs to map land cover. The resulting
   ultra-high-resolution (sub-decimeter-resolution) imagery has high
   information content, but automating the extraction of this information
   to create accurate, wall-to-wall land-cover maps is quite difficult. We
   introduce image-processing workflows that are based on open-source
   software and can be used to create land-cover maps from
   ultra-high-resolution aerial imagery. We compared four machine-learning
   workflows for classifying images. Two workflows were based on random
   forest algorithms. Of these, one used a pixel-by-pixel approach
   available in ilastik, and the other used image segments and was
   implemented with R and the Orfeo ToolBox. The other two workflows used
   fully connected neural networks and convolutional neural networks
   implemented with Nenetic. We applied the four workflows to aerial
   photographs acquired in the Great Basin (western USA) at flying heights
   of 10 m, 45 m and 90 m above ground level. Our focal cover type was
   cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum), a non-native invasive grass that changes
   regional fire dynamics. The most accurate workflow for classifying
   ultra-high-resolution imagery depends on diverse factors that are
   influenced by image resolution and land-cover characteristics, such as
   contrast, landscape patterns and the spectral texture of the land-cover
   types being classified. For our application, the ilastik workflow
   yielded the highest overall accuracy (0.82-0.89) as assessed by
   pixel-based accuracy.},

Title = {An open GNSS spoofing data repository: characterization and impact
   analysis with FGI-GSRx open-source software-defined receiver},
Journal = {GPS SOLUTIONS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {28},

Abstract = {Spoofing is becoming a prevalent threat to the users of Global
   Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). It is important to deepen our
   understanding of spoofing attacks and develop resilient techniques to
   effectively combat this threat. Detecting and mitigating these attacks
   requires thorough testing, typically conducted in a laboratory
   environment through the establishment of a spoofing test-bed. The
   complexity, cost and resource demands of creating such a test-bed
   underscore the necessity of utilizing openly available datasets. To
   address this need, this paper introduces a new GNSS spoofing data
   repository from Finnish Geospatial Research Institute (FGI) named
   hereafter as `FGI-SpoofRepo'. This data repository consists of raw
   In-phase and Quadrature (I/Q) data of live recordings of GPS L1 C/A,
   Galileo E1, GPS L5, and Galileo E5a signals. These datasets encompass
   three distinct types of spoofing characteristics (synchronous,
   asynchronous, and meaconing), making them very useful example candidates
   of open data for testing the performance of any anti-spoofing techniques
   (be it detection or mitigation). The inclusion of live signals in
   multiple GNSS frequencies and the presence of cryptographic signatures
   in Galileo E1 signal make these datasets potential benchmarks for
   assessing the resilience performance of multi-frequency
   multi-constellation receivers. The analysis of the datasets is carried
   out with an open-source MATLAB-based software-defined receiver,
   FGI-GSRx. An updated version of FGI-GSRx, equipped with the necessary
   modifications for processing and analyzing the new datasets, is released
   alongside the datasets. Therefore, the GNSS research community can
   utilize the open-source FGI-GSRx or any third-party SDR to process the
   publicly available raw I/Q data for implementation, testing and
   validation of any new anti-spoofing technique. The results show that
   time-synchronous spoofing seamlessly takes over positioning solution,
   while time-asynchronous spoofing acts as noise or in some cases,
   completely prevent the receiver from providing a positioning solution.
   Signal re-acquisition during an ongoing spoofing attack (cold start),
   the receiver tends to lock onto the spoofing signal with the highest
   peak, posing a potential threat to GNSS receivers without assisted
   information. Overall, this research aims to advance the understanding of
   complex spoofing attacks on GNSS signals, providing insight into
   enhancing resilience in navigation systems.},

Title = {MORE IS NOT NECESSARILY BETTER: AN ABSORPTIVE CAPACITY PERSPECTIVE ON
   NETWORK EFFECTS IN OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITIES},
Journal = {MIS QUARTERLY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {44},
Number = {4},
Pages = {1651-1678},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Previous research has predominantly taken a social network perspective
   suggesting that building more network connections or becoming deeply
   embedded in a network provides a better position to access network
   knowledge in open source software communities. This perspective
   implicitly assumes that accessed network knowledge automatically gets
   absorbed and transferred to projects, so that building more and deeper
   network connections is beneficial: Drawing from an absorptive capacity
   perspective, this research challenges such conventional wisdom, arguing
   instead that the benefits depend on a project's absorptive capacity.
   Network connections provide access to external knowledge in the
   community; the absorption and transfer of this new knowledge require
   appropriate internal knowledge and developer roles. With longitudinal
   data collected from 4,518 open source software development projects
   hosted at Source-Forge, the authors show that knowledge breadth (depth)
   helps with the absorption of external knowledge achieved from network
   depth (breadth), but it inhibits the absorption of external knowledge
   obtained from network breadth (depth). Further, developer roles (e.g.,
   bridge members, role diversity) can mitigate the negative consequences
   of suboptimal combinations and facilitate effective transfers of
   absorbed external knowledge across and within projects. These findings
   provide important theoretical and managerial implications for managing
   network connections, knowledge, and developer roles in open source
   software communities.},

Title = {A New Open-Source Software to Help Design Models for Automatic 3D Point
   Cloud Classification in Coastal Studies},
Journal = {REMOTE SENSING},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {16},
Number = {16},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {This study introduces a new software, cLASpy\_T, that helps design
   models for the automatic 3D point cloud classification of coastal
   environments. This software is based on machine learning algorithms from
   the scikit-learn library and can classify point clouds derived from
   LiDAR or photogrammetry. Input data can be imported via CSV or LAS
   files, providing a 3D point cloud, enhanced with geometric features or
   spectral information, such as colors from orthophotos or hyperspectral
   data. cLASpy\_T lets the user run three supervised machine learning
   algorithms from the scikit-learn API to build automatic classification
   models: RandomForestClassifier, GradientBoostingClassifier and
   MLPClassifier. This work presents the general method for classification
   model design using cLASpy\_T and the software's complete workflow with
   an example of photogrammetry point cloud classification. Four
   photogrammetric models of a coastal dike were acquired on four different
   dates, in 2021. The aim is to classify each point according to whether
   it belongs to the `sand' class of the beach, the `rock' class of the
   riprap, or the `block' class of the concrete blocks. This case study
   highlights the importance of adjusting algorithm parameters, selecting
   features, and the large number of tests necessary to design a
   classification model that can be generalized and used in production.},

Volume = {42},
Number = {8},
Pages = {1325-1340},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {When trying to attain the benefits of open source software (OSS),
   proprietary closed source software (PCSS) firms are struggling to adopt
   this radically different practice of software development. We approach
   these adoption challenges as a problem of gaining support for
   organizational innovation. Through a mixed-method research design
   consisting of qualitative interviews and a survey of employees of a
   large telecommunications firm, we find that the organizational
   innovation to commercially engage in OSS has different impacts on
   technical and administrative dimensions of different job roles.
   Accordingly, individuals enacting different job roles are-on
   average-more or less well aligned with the OSS practice and OSS
   processes per se. We find that individual-level attributes can
   counterbalance the job role changes that weaken support for adopting
   OSS, while perceived organizational commitment has no effect.
   Suggestions for PCSS firms are presented and implications for innovation

   conserved and advanced analysis of patch-clamp recordings},
Journal = {COMPUTER METHODS AND PROGRAMS IN BIOMEDICINE},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {255},
Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {Background and Objectives: Patch-Clamp recordings allow for in depth
   electrophysiological characterization of single cells, their general
   biophysical properties as well as characteristics of voltage- and
   ligand-gated ionic currents. Different acquisition modes, such as
   whole-cell patch-clamp recordings in the current or voltage clamp
   configuration, capacitance measurements or single channel recordings
   from cultured cells as well as acute brain slices are routinely
   performed for these purposes. Nevertheless, multipurpose transparent and
   adaptable software tools to perform reproducible state-of-the-art
   analysis of multiple experiment types and to manage larger sets of
   experimental data are currently unavailable. Methods: Biophysical
   Essentials (BPE) was developed as an open-source full stack python
   software for transparent and reproducible analysis of
   electrophysiological recordings. For validation, BPE results were
   compared with manually analyzed single-cell patch-clamp data acquired
   from a human in vitro nociceptor-model and mouse dorsal root ganglia
   neurons. Results: While initially designed to improve time consuming and
   repetitive analysis steps, BPE was further optimized as a technical
   software solution for entire workflow processing including data
   acquisition, data preprocessing, normalization and visualization and of
   single recordings up to stacked calculations and statistics of multiple
   experiments. BPE can operate with different file formats from different
   amplifier systems and producers. An in-process database logs all
   analysis steps reproducible review and serves as a central storage point
   for recordings. Statistical testing as well as advanced analysis
   functions like Boltzmann-fitting and dimensional reduction methods
   further support the researchers' needs in projects involving
   electrophysiology techniques. Conclusions: BPE extends beyond available
   patch-clamp specific, open source - and commercial analysis tools in
   particular because of reproducible and sharable analysis workflows. BPE
   enables full analysis from raw data acquisition to publication ready
   result visualizations - all within one single program. Thereby, BPE
   significantly enhances transparency in the analytical process of
   patch-clamp data analysis. BPEs function scope is completely accessible
   through an easy-to-use graphical user interface eliminating the need for
   programing language proficiency as required by many community
   patch-clamp analysis frameworks and algorithms.},

Abstract = {Neurophysiology requires an extensive workflow of information analysis
   routines, which often includes incompatible proprietary software,
   introducing limitations based on financial costs, transfer of data
   between platforms, and the ability to share. An ecosystem of free
   open-source software exists to fill these gaps, including thousands of
   analysis and plotting packages written in Python and R, which can be
   implemented in a sharable and reproducible format, such as the Jupyter
   electronic notebook. This tool chain can largely replace current
   routines by importing data, producing analyses, and generating
   publication-quality graphics. An electronic notebook like Jupyter allows
   these analyses, along with documentation of procedures, to display
   locally or remotely in an internet browser, which can be saved as an
   HTML, PDF, or other file format for sharing with team members and the
   scientific community. The present report illustrates these methods using
   data from electrophysiological recordings of the musk shrew vagus-a
   model system to investigate gut-brain communication, for example, in
   cancer chemotherapy-induced emesis. We show methods for spike sorting
   (including statistical validation), spike train analysis, and analysis
   of compound action potentials in notebooks. Raw data and code are
   available from notebooks in data supplements or from an executable
   online version, which replicates all analyses without installing
   software-an implementation of reproducible research. This demonstrates
   the promise of combining disparate analyses into one platform, along
   with the ease of sharing this work. In an age of diverse,
   high-throughput computational workflows, this methodology can increase
   efficiency, transparency, and the collaborative potential of

Abstract = {In recent years, many open source software (OSS) products have become
   popular and widely used in the information technology (IT) business. To
   successfully run IT business, it is important to properly understand the
   OSS development status. Having a proper understanding of development
   status is necessary to evaluate and predict the product quality.
   However, the OSS development status is not easy to understand, because
   it is often concurrently developed by many distributed contributors, and
   its developmental structure is complicated. To aid the understanding of
   the development status, there is an approach that models the trend of
   source code change events (evolution) with a growth curve. Although an
   application of growth curves seems to be a promising approach, there has
   been a big issue that a single growth curve is often unsuitable for
   modeling the whole evolution because of its complex evolutionary
   behavior. This paper proposes a multistage model that divides the whole
   development period into some stages, and applies a different growth
   curve to a different stage. The empirical investigation in this paper
   shows that the switching points of stages have meaningful associations
   with the release dates.},

   systems},
Journal = {COMPUTER STANDARDS \& INTERFACES},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {92},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {This paper presents LAMB (Learning Assistant Manager and Builder), an
   innovative open-source software framework designed to create AI-powered
   Learning Assistants tailored for integration into learning management
   systems. LAMB addresses critical gaps in existing educational AI
   solutions by providing a framework specifically designed for the unique
   requirements of the education sector. It introduces novel features,
   including a modular architecture for seamless integration of AI
   assistants into existing LMS platforms and an intuitive interface for
   educators to create custom AI assistants without coding skills. Unlike
   existing AI tools in education, LAMB provides a comprehensive framework
   that addresses privacy concerns, ensures alignment with institutional
   policies, and promotes using authoritative sources. LAMB leverages the
   capabilities of large language models and associated generative
   artificial intelligence technologies to create generative intelligent
   learning assistants that enhance educational experiences by providing
   personalized learning support based on clear directions and
   authoritative fonts of information. Key features of LAMB include its
   modular architecture, which supports prompt engineering,
   retrieval-augmented generation, and the creation of extensive knowledge
   bases from diverse educational content, including video sources. The
   development and deployment of LAMB were iteratively refined using a
   minimum viable product approach, exemplified by the learning assistant:
   ``Macroeconomics Study Coach,{''} which effectively integrated lecture
   transcriptions and other course materials to support student inquiries.
   Initial validations in various educational settings demonstrate the
   potential that learning assistants created with LAMB have to enhance
   teaching methodologies, increase student engagement, and provide
   personalized learning experiences. The system's usability, scalability,
   security, and interoperability with existing LMS platforms make it a
   robust solution for integrating artificial intelligence into educational
   environments. LAMB's open-source nature encourages collaboration and
   innovation among educators, researchers, and developers, fostering a
   community dedicated to advancing the role of artificial intelligence in
   education. This paper outlines the system architecture, implementation
   details, use cases, and the significant benefits and challenges
   encountered, offering valuable insights for future developments in
   artificial intelligence assistants for any sector.},

Abstract = {This paper examines the within-industry diversification of software
   small and medium enterprises that collaborate with the open source
   software community (OSS SMEs). In doing so, it offers new insights into
   the association between open innovation and diversification. We rely on
   arguments inspired by the literature and evidence collected through
   interviews with OSS SMEs' top managers to investigate factors that favor
   or hinder within-industry diversification. First, in line with the
   mainstream diversification literature, we focus attention on the role of
   firm size. Second, in the spirit of the open innovation research, we
   concentrate on the mechanisms that OSS SMEs put in place to get access
   to the external resources of the OSS community. Econometric evidence on
   100 European OSS SMEs shows that firm size is negatively associated to
   within-industry diversification, while OSS SMEs that have contributed to
   a larger number of OSS projects have a more diversified portfolio of
   software products. Furthermore, we provide preliminary evidence that the
   practice of authorizing firm programmers to contribute autonomously to
   OSS projects of their own choice during working hours may be positively
   associated to within-industry diversification only if OSS SMEs possess
   adequate internal technological resources. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All

Abstract = {Managing work practices has become one of the key challenges facing
   virtual communities. This paper seeks to broaden the research on virtual
   communities by applying the theory of competency rallying (TCR) in a
   longitudinal manner to examine the impact of task identification, task
   assignment, task execution and task management on user interest in open
   source software (OSS) projects defined by popularity and communication.
   The aim of this paper is: (I) re-conceptualizing the concept of user
   interest and broadening our understanding of user interest by
   incorporating users' post-usage behaviors, (2) examining the effect of
   various tasks involved in an OSS project's key processes of
   defect-fixing and feature-enhancement on user interest. The current
   study found that project popularity is positively influenced by task
   assignment, task execution and task management. Additionally, user
   communication was found to be positively impacted by task identification
   and task execution. The data collected from 1178 OSS projects in a
   longitudinal manner (at 3 time points over a period of 16 months)
   confirmed the expectations from TCR and also demonstrated that over time
   the effects that development of competencies and managing short term
   cooperative work have on project success might increase, while the
   impact of identifying market needs and marshalling competencies may not
   significantly change. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {The interdisciplinary nature of environmental research centres, dealing
   with geospatial data, analysis and environmental modelling on a daily
   basis, requires specific methods and technologies in the field of
   geospatial information management. The large amount of generated
   information has to be stored, catalogued, visualised and treated
   effectively for further analysis. The Public Research Centre Henri Tudor
   has set up a prototype system to create an integrated geospatial data
   infrastructure, serving the needs of various user profiles from novice
   level to advanced and experienced data analysts and modellers. The paper
   will show solutions on how to give a broad range of users access to an
   integrated infrastructure. This is achieved by introducing different
   user interfaces: an easy to use web interface for beginners - advanced
   web mapping and feature services coupled to desktop GIS applications for
   intermediates - direct data base access, making use of cutting-edge
   geospatial tools and spatially distributed modelling algorithms for
   experts. The system is fully functional on all user levels and based on
   free and open source software. It is integrating current standards of
   the Open Geospatial Consortium, to assure exchange with stakeholders and
   to guarantee its further functional extensibility.},

Abstract = {In the early 2000s, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of
   flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) emerged as a performant and
   relevant tool for identifying micro-organisms. Since then, it has become
   practically essential for identifying bacteria in microbiological
   diagnostic laboratories. In the last decade, it was successfully applied
   for arthropod identification, allowing researchers to distinguish
   vectors from non-vectors of infectious diseases. However, identification
   failures are not rare, hampering its wide use. Failure is generally
   attributed either to the absence of respective counter species MS
   spectra in the database or to the insufficient quality of query MS
   spectra (i.e., lower intensity and diversity of MS peaks detected). To
   avoid matching errors due to non-compliant spectra, the development of a
   strategy for detecting and excluding outlier MS profiles became
   compulsory. To this end, we created MSProfileR, an R package leading to
   a bioinformatics tool through a simple installation, integrating a
   control quality system of MS spectra and an analysis pipeline including
   peak detection and MS spectra comparisons. MSProfileR can also add
   metadata concerning the sample that the spectra are derived from.
   MSProfileR has been developed in the R environment and offers a
   user-friendly web interface using the R Shiny framework. It is available
   on Microsoft Windows as a web browser application by simple navigation
   using the link of the package on Github v.3.10.0. MSProfileR is
   therefore accessible to non-computer specialists and is freely available
   to the scientific community. We evaluated MSProfileR using two datasets
   including exclusively MS spectra from arthropods. In addition to
   coherent sample classification, outlier MS spectra were detected in each
   dataset confirming the value of MSProfileR.},

Abstract = {Attracting new contributors is a necessary but not a sufficient
   condition, to ensure the survival and long-term success of Free/Open
   Source Software (FOSS) projects. The well-being of a FOSS project
   depends on the turning of project newcomers into `good contributors'
   that is to say into individuals that substantially contribute to the
   project - but also that perform citizenship behaviors that protect and
   nurture its community. This study is a mixed: methods investigation of
   the socialization factors that influence contributor performance in
   large FOSS projects. A qualitative research component resulted into the
   development of a FOSS socialization framework as well as into the
   identification of key FOSS project citizenship behaviors. A conceptual
   model was then developed and empirically examined with 367 contributors
   from 12 large FOSS projects. The model hypothesizes the mediating effect
   of two proximal socialization variables, social identification and
   social integration, between FOSS newcomer socialization factors and
   contributor performance (conceptualized as task performance and
   community citizenship behaviors). The results demonstrate the influence
   of social identification and social integration in predicting
   contributor performance, as well as the importance of key socialization
   factors that are: task segregation, task purposefulness, interaction
   intensity, and supportiveness. Theoretical and practical implications
   are discussed. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Almost all software products today incorporate free/libre, and open
   source software (FLOSS) components. Companies must govern their FLOSS
   use to avoid potential risks to their intellectual property resulting
   from the use of FLOSS components. A particular challenge is license
   compliance. To manage the complexity of license compliance, companies
   should use tools and well-defined processes to perform these tasks time
   and cost efficiently. This paper investigates and presents common
   industry requirements for FLOSS governance tools, followed by an
   evaluation of the suggested requirements by matching them with the
   features of existing tools.
   We chose 10 industry leading companies through polar theoretical
   sampling and interviewed their FLOSS governance experts to derive a
   theory of industry needs and requirements for tooling. We then analyzed
   the features of a governance tools sample and used this analysis to
   evaluate two categories of our theory: FLOSS license scanning and FLOSS
   in product bills of materials. The result is a list of FLOSS governance
   requirements based on our qualitative study of the industry, evaluated
   using the existing governance tool features. For higher practical
   relevance, we cast our theory as a requirements specification for FLOSS
   governance tools.},

Abstract = {While open source health information software platforms provide
   developing countries a low-cost, quick and less risky way to build
   health information systems as compared to in-house solutions, human
   resource capacity challenges can limit their ability to leverage such
   platforms. Drawing from a case study focusing on the deployment and
   operation phases of the DHIS2 platform in Malawi, we observe open source
   software platforms require a range of human resource capacities that go
   beyond capacity to use the platform. To fully leverage open source
   health information software platforms entails the availability of
   platform usage capacity, platform deployment capacity, platform
   customisation capacity and platform module development capacity. Most
   capacity building initiatives for information systems in developing
   countries have been short-term efforts focused on initial end user
   capacity to use such systems. However, to cope with rapid innovations
   and evolution associated with open source software platforms, capacity
   building ought to be a continuous process encompassing a range of human
   resource capacities not only use of the platform.},

Abstract = {LiDAR is an active remote sensing technique with a unique capability to
   capture three-dimensional information of the earth's surface even in
   heavily vegetated areas, and it is proven to be useful in many research
   applications. Although it is becoming the remote sensing platform of
   choice for planning and natural resource agencies that require
   three-dimensional information, the enormous data that are generated and
   the lack of available software analysis packages make LiDAR still
   unavailable to a typical user of spatial data. LiDARHub is a free and
   open source platform for web-based management, visualization and
   analysis of LiDAR data that enables development of online tools for
   LiDAR data processing in a web browser. The framework provides a
   foundation to develop online tools for LiDAR data processing and tools
   can be shared. The framework is also flexible so that the developed
   tools can be easily ported to High Performance Computing (HPC)
   environments that speed up the computationally extensive LiDAR data
   processing. Two example LiDARHub tools are presented as case studies to
   demonstrate potential software development scenarios. The developed
   tools provide easy to use user interface and hide complex computation so
   that users can take advantage of the LiDAR technology with only a web
   browser. The LiDARHub allows not only the sharing of large volume of

Abstract = {The emergence of open source software (OSS) has changed the philosophy
   and practice of software development, implementation and ownership; a
   phenomenon which also has influenced interpretations, actions and
   behaviors of organizational members. This research explicates the
   interpretations and subsequent actions of key stakeholder groups towards
   OSS during the implementation of an OSS-based IS in a public sector
   organization in Ethiopia. Drawing upon the technological frames
   analytical framework, the study shows that the key stakeholder groups
   interpreted openness of the software and the community model of software
   implementation differently leading them to entertain divergent actions.
   Users were keen to solving operational problems via readymade IS with a
   third party support, while the management and technologists were
   focusing on the strategic importance of OSS not only to their own
   organization but also to the nation in general. Perception differences
   led to alliance formation, political processes, and change of management
   style. The study shows that as multiple interrelated elements shape the
   technological frames of groups, the relationship between frame
   incongruence and implementation is also complex and contextual. The
   study proposes technological frame analysis as an integral part of OSS
   implementation and a carefully crafted intervention to harness frame
   incongruence, if any.},

   incorporate both habitual and infrequent, or episodic, contributors.
   Using the concept of episodic volunteering (EV) from the general
   volunteering literature, we derive a model consisting of five key
   constructs that we hypothesize affect episodic volunteers' retention in
   FLOSS communities. To evaluate the model we conducted a survey with over
   100 FLOSS episodic volunteers. We observe that three of our model
   constructs (social norms, satisfaction and community commitment) are all
   positively associated with volunteers' intention to remain, while the
   two other constructs (psychological sense of community and contributor
   benefit motivations) are not. Furthermore, exploratory clustering on
   unobserved heterogeneity suggests that there are four distinct
   categories of volunteers: satisfied, classic, social and obligated.
   Based on our findings, we offer suggestions for projects to incorporate
   and manage episodic volunteers, so as to better leverage this type of
   contributors and potentially improve projects' sustainability.},

Volume = {16},

Pages = {64-77},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS), a form of Digital or Knowledge Commons,
   underlies much of the technology that we use in our daily lives. The
   existence and continuation of OSS relies on the contribution of private
   resources - personal time, volunteer energy, and effort of numerous
   actors (e.g., software developers' time as a common-pool resource) - to
   public goods, the benefits of which are enjoyed by everyone. Nonprofit
   organizations such as the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) attempt to
   aid this process by providing various collective services to OSS
   projects, acting as a second-order actor in the production of the public
   good. To this end, the ASF Incubator has created policies - essentially
   rules or norms - that serve to protect its interests and, as they say,
   increase the sustainability of the projects. Each policy requires
   investment by ASF (in terms of money or the use of volunteer time) or an
   incubating project (in terms of taking project personnel time), the
   benefits of which can accrue to either party. Such policies may impose
   additional costs on incubating projects, leading to a decreased
   production of the OSS public good. Using the ASF Incubator policy
   documents, we construct a dataset that records who - ASF or an
   incubating project - bears the cost and who enjoys the benefit of each
   policy and procedure. We can code most policy statements as costing one
   party and benefiting one party. The distribution of costs and benefits
   according to party indicates whether the second-order actor is
   contributing to an increase in the public good and if they are doing so
   sustainably. Through a two-way ANOVA, we characterize the impact of ASF
   policies on the production of public goods (OSS). Being a part of ASF
   imposes some costs on projects, but these costs may make projects more
   sustainable. Our analysis shows that the distribution of costs and
   benefits is fairly symmetric between the ASF and incubating projects.
   Thus, the configuration of policies or the ``institutional design{''} of
   the ASF could aid in producing the OSS public good by providing services
   that projects require.},

Title = {BUSClean: Open-source software for breast ultrasound image
   pre-processing and knowledge extraction for medical AI},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {19},
Number = {12},
Month = {DEC 11},
Abstract = {Development of artificial intelligence (AI) for medical imaging demands
   curation and cleaning of large-scale clinical datasets comprising
   hundreds of thousands of images. Some modalities, such as mammography,
   contain highly standardized imaging. In contrast, breast ultrasound
   imaging (BUS) can contain many irregularities not indicated by scan
   metadata, such as enhanced scan modes, sonographer annotations, or
   additional views. We present an open-source software solution for
   automatically processing clinical BUS datasets. The algorithm performs
   BUS scan filtering (flagging of invalid and non-B-mode scans), cleaning
   (dual-view scan detection, scan area cropping, and caliper detection),
   and knowledge extraction (BI-RADS Labeling and Measurement fields) from
   sonographer annotations. Its modular design enables users to adapt it to
   new settings. Experiments on an internal testing dataset of 430 clinical
   BUS images achieve >95\% sensitivity and >98\% specificity in detecting
   every type of text annotation, >98\% sensitivity and specificity in
   detecting scans with blood flow highlighting, alternative scan modes, or
   invalid scans. A case study on a completely external, public dataset of
   BUS scans found that BUSClean identified text annotations and scans with
   blood flow highlighting with 88.6\% and 90.9\% sensitivity and 98.3\%
   and 99.9\% specificity, respectively. Adaptation of the lesion caliper
   detection method to account for a type of caliper specific to the case
   study demonstrates the intended use of BUSClean in new data
   distributions and improved performance in lesion caliper detection from
   43.3\% and 93.3\% out-of-the-box to 92.1\% and 92.3\% sensitivity and
   specificity, respectively. Source code, example notebooks, and sample
   data are available at https://github.com/hawaii-ai/bus-cleaning.},

Title = {Qiber3D-an open-source software package for the quantitative analysis of
   networks from 3D image stacks},
Journal = {GIGASCIENCE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {11},
Abstract = {Background Optical slice microscopy is commonly used to observe cellular
   morphology in 3D tissue culture, e.g., the formation of cell-derived
   networks. The morphometric quantification of these networks is essential
   to study the cellular phenotype. Commonly, the quantitative measurements
   are performed on 2D projections of the image stack, resulting in the
   loss of information in the third dimension. Currently available 3D image
   analysis tools rely on manual interactions with the software and are
   therefore not feasible for large datasets.
   Findings Here we present Qiber3D, an open-source image processing
   toolkit. The software package includes the essential image analysis
   procedures required for image processing, from the raw image to the
   quantified data. Optional pre-processing steps can be switched on/off
   depending on the input data to allow for analyzing networks from a
   variety of sources. Two reconstruction algorithms are offered to meet
   the requirements for a wide range of network types. Furthermore,
   Qiber3D's rendering capabilities enable the user to inspect each step of
   the image analysis process interactively to ensure the creation of an
   optimal workflow for each application.
   Conclusions Qiber3D is implemented as a Python package, and its source
   code is freely available at https://github.com/theia-dev/Qiber3D. The
   toolkit was designed using a building block principle to enable the
   analysis of a variety of structures, such as vascular networks, neuronal
   structures, or scaffolds from numerous input formats. While Qiber3D can
   be used interactively in the Python console, it is aimed at unsupervised
   automation to process large image datasets efficiently.},

   first study, a physician and medical resident performed a total of 18
   targeting passes in the abdomen of an anthropomorphic phantom based
   solely upon image guidance. The distance between the target and needle
   tip location was measured based on confirmatory scans which gave an
   average of 3.56 mm. In the second study, three foam nodules were placed
   at different depths in a gelatin phantom. Ten targeting passes were
   attempted in each of the three depths. Final distances between the
   target and needle tip were measured which gave an average of 3.00 mm. In
   addition to these targeting studies, we discuss our refinement to the
   standard four-quadrant image-guided navigation user interface, based on
   clinician preferences. We believe these refinements increase the

Abstract = {PurposeIn South Africa, public institutions face challenges in
   transitioning their digital records to trusted digital repositories due
   to a deficiency in skills, infrastructure and systems. Free and
   open-source software (FOSS) presents a viable solution for facilitating
   the transfer of digital archives for permanent preservation. Despite the
   existence of FOSS policy in South Africa, the public sector has yet to
   fully use it to engage in the development and implementation of products
   for records management and archive preservation using open-source
   software. This study aims to explore the ingestion of digital archives
   into an approved long-term storage system through FOSS in South Africa
   with the view of developing a framework.Design/methodology/approachThe
   study adopted a qualitative research approach to collect data through
   interviews with purposively selected participants (records managers,
   archivists and IT officials) from national government departments that
   have implemented records management systems for digital curation of
   archives, as well as the National Archives and Records Services of South
   Africa (NARSSA), which regulates archives and records management, and
   the State Information Technology Agency, which regulates information
   technology in government.FindingsThe findings of the study suggest that
   the systematic transfer of digital materials from public entities to
   NARSSA, as required by statute, has not taken place.Research
   limitations/implicationsThe study specifically targeted national
   government departments that have implemented digital archives and
   records management systems. Consequently, perspectives from departments
   that have not implemented these solutions were
   excluded.Originality/valueA framework is proposed for the transfer of
   digital archives, using interoperable FOSS, from government agencies
   responsible for records management to NARSSA for archival preservation.
   This framework, it is hoped, will facilitate infrastructure and skills
   development in the management of records and preservation of archives
   through open platforms.},

   an electronic climate and river level recorder (RCNR) has been built
   using Open Source Software and Hardware and Mobile Phone. Due to the use
   of this technology, the RCNR is characterized by being modern, versatile
   and low cost. The device monitors climatic variables such as air
   temperature, precipitation and atmospheric pressure. It can be installed
   in multiple environments such as rivers, streams and canals; where it is
   possible to monitor such climatic variables, measure river levels or
   program it as an Early Warning System (EWS), thus contributing to reduce
   human and material losses in the face of natural disasters. This paper

Abstract = {Audio recording devices have changed significantly over the last 50
   years, making large datasets of recordings of natural sounds, such as
   birdsong, easier to obtain. This increase in digital recordings
   necessitates an increase in high-throughput methods of analysis for
   researchers. Specifically, there is a need in the community for
   open-source methods that are tailored to recordings of varying qualities
   and from multiple species collected in nature.
   We developed Chipper, a Python-based software to semi-automate both the
   segmentation of acoustic signals and the subsequent analysis of their
   frequencies and durations. For avian recordings, we provide widgets to
   best determine appropriate thresholds for noise and syllable similarity,
   which aid in calculating note measurements and determining song syntax.
   In addition, we generated a set of synthetic songs with various levels
   of background noise to test Chipper's accuracy, repeatability and
   reproducibility.
   Chipper provides an effective way to quickly generate quantitative,
   reproducible measures of birdsong. The cross-platform graphical user
   interface allows the user to adjust parameters and visualize the
   resulting spectrogram and signal segmentation, providing a simplified
   method for analysing field recordings.
   Chipper streamlines the processing of audio recordings with multiple
   user-friendly tools and is optimized for multiple species and varying
   recording qualities. Ultimately, Chipper supports the use of
   citizen-science data and increases the feasibility of large-scale
   multi-species birdsong studies.},

Abstract = {Background: Moving to electronic health records (EHRs) confers
   substantial benefits but risks unintended consequences. Modern EHRs
   consist of complex software code with extensive local configurability
   options, which can introduce defects. Defects in clinical decision
   support (CDS) tools are surprisingly common. Feasible approaches to
   prevent and detect defects in EHR configuration, including CDS tools,
   are needed. In complex software systems, use of test-driven development
   and automated regression testing promotes reliability. Test-driven
   development encourages modular, testable design and expanding regression
   test coverage. Automated regression test suites improve software
   quality, providing a ``safety net{''} for future software modifications.
   Each automated acceptance test serves multiple purposes, as requirements
   (prior to build), acceptance testing (on completion of build),
   regression testing (once live), and ``living{''} design documentation.
   Rapid-cycle development or ``agile{''} methods are being successfully
   applied to CDS development. The agile practice of automated test-driven
   development is not widely adopted, perhaps because most EHR software
   code is vendor-developed. However, key CDS advisory configuration design
   decisions and rules stored in the EHR may prove amenable to automated
   testing as ``executable requirements.{''}
   Objective: We aimed to establish feasibility of acceptance test-driven
   development of clinical decision support advisories in a commonly used
   EHR, using an open source automated acceptance testing framework
   (FitNesse).
   Methods: Acceptance tests were initially constructed as spreadsheet
   tables to facilitate clinical review. Each table specified one aspect of
   the CDS advisory's expected behavior. Table contents were then imported
   into a test suite in FitNesse, which queried the EHR database to
   automate testing. Tests and corresponding CDS configuration were
   migrated together from the development environment to production, with
   tests becoming part of the production regression test suite.
   Results: We used test-driven development to construct a new CDS tool
   advising Emergency Department nurses to perform a swallowing assessment
   prior to administering oral medication to a patient with suspected
   stroke. Test tables specified desired behavior for (1) applicable
   clinical settings, (2) triggering action, (3) rule logic, (4) user
   interface, and (5) system actions in response to user input. Automated
   test suite results for the ``executable requirements{''} are shown prior
   to building the CDS alert, during build, and after successful build.
   Conclusions: Automated acceptance test-driven development and continuous
   regression testing of CDS configuration in a commercial EHR proves
   feasible with open source software. Automated test-driven development
   offers one potential contribution to achieving high-reliability EHR
   configuration. Vetting acceptance tests with clinicians elicits their
   input on crucial configuration details early during initial CDS design
   and iteratively during rapid-cycle optimization.},

Abstract = {VMStools is a package of open-source software, build using the freeware
   environment R. specifically developed for the processing, analysis and
   visualisation of landings (logbooks) and vessel location data (VMS) from
   commercial fisheries. Analyses start with standardized data formats for
   logbook (EFLALO) and VMS (TACSAT), enabling users to conduct a variety
   of analyses using generic algorithms. Embedded functionality handles
   erroneous data point detection and removal, m tier identification
   through the use of clustering techniques, linking logbook and VMS data
   together in order to distinguish fishing from other activities, provide
   high-resolution maps of both fishing effort and -landings, interpolate
   vessel tracks, calculate indicators of fishing impact as listed under
   the Data Collection Framework at different spatio-temporal scales.
   Finally data can be transformed into other existing formats, for example
   to populate regional databases like FishFrame. This paper describes
   workflow examples of these features while online material allows a head
   start to perform these analyses. This software incorporates state-of-the
   art VMS and logbook analysing methods standardizing the process towards
   obtaining pan-European, or even worldwide indicators of fishing
   distribution and impact as required for spatial planning. (c) 2011

Abstract = {The Arts and Software are often thought as two parallel fields but with
   the growth of the information technology, the gap between these two

   development but the scope of the field can be increased to the other
   fields such as education and serving people in different fields such as
   Artists. The Artists are in search of open source software tools which
   can enhance their creative ability and at the same time want to
   collaborate with others to increase their knowledge on the tool. The
   creativity is difficult to measure as we have to consider the way the
   tool is enhancing the creative knowledge of the user using the tool. The
   creativity can also be based upon understanding the relations between
   different phenomena governing the tool such as Artist, Artwork, Visitor
   and Software. The ArTe conceptual model is based upon these principles,
   so the tools are evaluated based upon the ArTe conceptual model.},

Abstract = {Image correlation is one of the most efficient techniques to determine
   horizontal ground displacements due to earthquakes, landslides, ice
   flows or sand dune migrations. Analyzing these deformations allows a
   better understanding of the causes and mechanisms of the events. By
   using sub-pixel correlation on before- and after-event ortho-images
   obtained from high resolution satellite images it is possible to compute
   the displacement field with high planimetric resolution. In this paper,
   we focus on measuring the ground displacements due to seismotectonic
   events. The three sub-pixel correlators used are: COSI-Corr - developed
   by Caltech, a free, closed-source correlator, dependent on commercial
   software (ENVI) and widely used by the geoscience community for
   measuring ground displacement; Medicis - developed by CNES, also a
   closed-source correlator capable of measuring this type of deformation;
   and MicMac - developed by IGN, the free open-source correlator we study
   and tune for measuring fine ground displacements. We measured horizontal
   ground deformation using these three correlators on SPOT images in three
   study cases: the 2001 Kokoxili earthquake, the 2005 dyke intrusion in
   the Afar depression and the 2008 Yutian earthquake. (C) 2014

   signatures reduction (radar, infrared, etc). First, we have to model
   these signatures. In Lapierre et al. (2006), Lapierre et al. (2007)

   (OSMOSIS) that can manage parametric emissivity. OSMOSIS comprises a
   smart computation time and memory management. Evaluating the
   effectiveness of an IR signature reduction method implies simulating the
   evolution of the IR signature with time. This requires a huge
   computation time. In this paper, we propose a novel hierarchical meshing
   strategy leading to an important reduction of the computation time. The
   time complexity of the algorithm is shown to be O(root N), where N is
   the requested number of facets of the mesh of the ship's surface. Then,
   we validate OSMOSIS on temperature measurements performed on an
   ``L-shape{''} object. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

   Using Open-Source Software},
Journal = {FLUIDS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {7},
Number = {8},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Finned tubes increase the convective heat transfer in heat exchangers,
   reducing the total energy consumption of integrated industrial
   processes. Due to its stability and robustness, Computational Fluid
   Dynamics (CFD) commercial software is generally utilized for analyzing
   complex systems; however, its licensing is expensive. Nowadays,
   open-source software is a viable substitute for proprietary software.
   This work presents a CFD analysis of the hydrodynamics of a finned tube
   using the OpenFOAM and SALOME Meca platforms. The results are compared
   with experimental data and CFD using the commercial software Fluent,
   both previously reported in the open literature. This work studies the
   fluid flow pattern around a tube with six 45-degree-angled fins, and the
   working fluid, air, is considered as an incompressible fluid. Special
   attention is paid to calculating the pressure coefficient distribution
   for the internal and external surfaces of the inclined fins. Open-source
   platforms allow researchers to visualize how the airflow interacts with
   the cylinder and the fin surfaces to form a fluid structure, formerly
   known as a horseshoe vortex system. The findings of the analysis of flow
   dynamics in the channel between inclined fins and in the wake help
   explain the results obtained in experimental tests and are relevant for
   the configuration of a bank of tubes with inclined fins.},

   to simulate granular material},
Journal = {ENGINEERING COMPUTATIONS},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {26},
Number = {7-8},
Pages = {786-805},
Abstract = {Purpose - YADE-OPEN DEM is an open-source software based on the discrete
   element method, (DEM) which uses object oriented programming techniques.
   The purpose of this paper is to describe the software architecture.
   Design/methodology/approach - The DEM chosen uses position, orientation,
   velocity and angular velocity as independent variables of simulated
   particles which are subject to explicit leapfrog time-integration scheme
   (Lagrangian method). The three-dimensional dynamics equations based on
   the classical Newtonian approach for the second law of motion are used.
   The track of forces and moments acting on each particle is kept at every
   time step. Contact forces depend on the particle geometry overlap and
   material properties. The normal, tangential and moment components of
   interaction force are included.
   Findings - An effort is undertaken to extract the underlying object
   oriented abstractions in the DEM. These abstractions are implemented in
   C++, conform to object oriented design principles and use design
   patterns. Based on that, a software framework is developed in which the
   abstractions provide the interface where the modelling methods can be
   plugged-in.
   Originality/value - The resulting YADE-OPEN DEM framework is designed in
   a generic way which provides great flexibility when adding new
   scientific simulation code. Some of the advantages are that numerous
   simulation methods can be coupled within the same framework while
   plug-ins can import data from other software. In addition, this promotes
   code improvement through open-source development and allows feedback
   from the community. However implementing such models requires that one
   adheres to the framework design and the YADE framework is a new emerging
   software. To download the software see http : //yade.wikia.com webpage.},

Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {10},
Pages = {46490-46503},
Abstract = {The recent surge in the number of commercial open-source software (COSS)
   companies shows the growing importance of COSS companies in the software
   industry. As knowledge-based firms, COSS companies' success depends
   heavily on the interplay among intangible resources such as human
   capital, relational capital, structural capital, and software quality.
   To observe these relationships, we conducted a hypothesis-testing
   questionnaire-type survey involving 200 software development experts and
   professionals working at 60 multinational COSS companies. Accordingly,
   the study unearthed two different but conjoint ways (i.e., direct and
   indirect) in which intellectual capital impacts COSS company's success.
   On the one hand, relational capital one of the intellectual capital
   components directly affects COSS company's success. On the other hand,
   relational and structural capital indirectly affect COSS company success
   through human capital, which, in turn, is itself mediated by software
   quality in a sequential mediation model. Therefore, COSS companies may
   need to prioritize software quality as it is the most critical variable
   impacting the success of COSS companies.},

Abstract = {Women represent less than 24\% of employees in the software development
   industry and experience various types of prejudice and bias. Despite
   various efforts to increase diversity and multi-gendered participation,
   women are even more under-represented in Open Source Software (OSS)
   projects. In my PhD, I investigate the following question: How can OSS
   communities increase women's participation in their projects? I will
   identify different OSS career pathways and develop a holistic view of
   women's motivations to join or leave OSS, as well as their definitions
   of success. Based on this empirical investigation, I will work together
   with the Linux Foundation to design attraction and retention strategies
   focused on women. Before and after implementing the strategies, I will
   conduct empirical studies to evaluate the state of the practice and
   understand the implications of the strategies.},

Abstract = {Quantitative structure activity relationships (QSAR) modeling is a
   well-known computational technique with wide applications in fields such
   as drug design, toxicity predictions, nanomaterials, etc. However, QSAR
   researchers still face certain problems to develop robust
   classification-based QSAR models, especially while handling response
   data pertaining to diverse experimental and/or theoretical conditions.
   In the present work, we have developed an open source standalone
   software ``QSAR-Co{''} (available to download at https://sites.
   google.com/view/qsar-co) to setup classification-based QSAR models that
   allow mining the response data coming from multiple conditions. The
   software comprises two modules: (1) the Model development module and (2)
   the Screen/Predict module. This user-friendly software provides several
   functionalities required for developing a robust multitasking or
   multitarget classification-based QSAR model using linear discriminant
   analysis or random forest techniques, with appropriate validation,
   following the principles set by the Organisation for Economic
   Co-operation and Development (OECD) for applying QSAR models in
   regulatory assessments.},

Abstract = {While researchers are becoming increasingly interested in studying OSS

   samples of projects investigating the structure of activities among OSS
   developers. The significant amount of information that has been gathered
   in the publicly available open-source software repositories and
   mailing-list archives offers an opportunity to analyze projects
   structures and participant involvement. In this article, using on
   commits data from 263 Apache projects repositories (nearly all), we show
   that although OSS development is often described as collaborative, but
   it in fact predominantly relies on radically solitary input and
   individual, non-collaborative contributions. We also show, in the first
   published study of this magnitude, that the engagement of contributors
   is based on a power-law distribution.},

Abstract = {In this paper we combined layers created from several terrain rendering
   techniques, namely a shaded relief rendered in the free and open-source
   3D computer graphics software Blender, a hillshade created in the free
   and opensource Geographic Information System (GIS) software QGIS, a
   hypsometric coloured Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and a draped digital
   orthophoto. Following a recent trend in the cartographic community
   towards using Blender, we tried to improve the standard relief
   visualization in common GIS software by blending it with a shaded relief
   rendered in Blender. Using different QGIS blending modes and opacity
   values we achieved different graphic visualizations. To compare and
   evaluate the suitability of different rendering techniques we chose
   national park Risnjak located in Croatia because of its specific and
   diverse terrain landforms. After comparing different input layers and
   parameter sets, we selected the blending combination which is best
   suited for visualizing terrain characteristics of all Croatian national
   parks. The result is a shaded relief created for every national park
   which is combined from a shaded relief rendered in Blender, a hillshade
   created in QGIS, a hypsometric coloured DEM and a draped digital

Abstract = {Day-night locomotor activities are the most readily observed outputs of
   the circadian (similar to 24-h period) clock in many animals. Temporal
   patterns of the light-dark schedule serve as input to the clock. While
   circadian activity patterns under various lighting conditions have been
   observed and documented, the full extent of circadian locomotor
   activities by genotype and entrainment remains uncharacterized. To
   facilitate large-scale, parallel cataloging of circadian input-output
   patterns, we created the LocoBox, an easy-to-construct and
   easy-to-operate system that can control environmental light with
   flexible entrainment scenarios combined with the T-cycle and measure
   locomotor activities in individual home cages. The LocoBox is made using
   economical, common components, and normal breeding cages can be used for
   long-term recording. We provide details of the components and
   blueprints, along with software programs for Arduino and a Python-based
   graphical user interface (GUI), so that the system can be easily

   development paradigms such as concurrent distributed development

   computing technologies. Especially, OSS (Open Source Software) systems
   which serve as key components of critical infrastructure,, in the
   society are still ever-expanding now.
   We focus on OSS developed under open source project. In case of
   considering the effect of the debugging process on an entire system in
   the development of a method of reliability assessment for open source
   project, it is necessary to grasp the deeply-intertwined factors, such
   as programming path, size of each component, skill of fault reporters,
   and so on. In order to consider the effect of each software component on
   the reliability of an entire system under such open source software, we
   propose a new approach to software reliability assessment by creating a
   fusion of neural network and software reliability growth model based on
   stochastic differential equations. Also, we analyze actual software
   fault count data to show numerical examples of software reliability
   assessment for the open source software.},

Abstract = {Empirical papers on Open Source software should try and formulate
   reasons for successes as Linux, Apache and some other flagship projects.
   What we need to understand about this topic is on the process of
   producing software through cooperation of different efforts. Albeit many
   success reasons for these projects are inherently due to the application
   domain that the project develops, architectural and conceptual views of
   the code have to be considered as key factors when considering community
   efforts and joint decisions.
   In this work we focus our attention on what is perceived of a source
   code when investigating its structure. We do this considering that
   structure as a proxy for the conceptual architecture of the application.
   A metric is developed based on some current assumptions, and it is
   tested over a sample of Open Source projects. What is interesting to
   note, is that refactoring efforts are clearly visible when intended as
   reduction of complexity of source code. Our second observation is that,
   based on what an Open Source software currently does, i.e. its
   application domain, there's a threshold value that several projects tend
   to.},

Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {12},
Pages = {179104-179118},
Abstract = {The prevalence and impact of code clones in software systems have been
   widely studied in the past few decades. However, the focus has primarily
   been on intra-project clones. Our work comprehensively investigates
   cross-project code clones in open-source software for Internet of Things
   (IoT) systems across multiple programming languages. This work addresses
   the prevalence of cross-project code clones in IoT systems and their
   impact on software maintainability. We collected 122 IoT system
   repositories in nine languages from GitHub and grouped them according to
   their primary functionality in IoT systems. We used MSCCD, a
   multilingual code clone detector to detect Type-3 code clones for each
   group. The results show that cross-project clones exist in more than
   30\% of the projects, particularly in communication-related
   functionalities. We tracked the historical evolution of these clones and
   classified them according to the revision history and changing trend of
   similarity. The results show that 95\% cross-project clones are
   untouched. Moreover, clones with decreasing similarities were over 72\%.
   Therefore, the same clone detector may no longer detect these clones. We
   also investigated whether these cross-project code clones lead to defect
   propagation by analyzing the commit message to determine the commits
   that fixed a defect. We identified nine defect propagation instances, of
   which seven remain unfixed. Our work contributes to understanding
   cross-project code clones, highlighting the importance of automated
   clone management tools for improving the quality and security of IoT
   system software to mitigate the risks associated with unresolved defects
   and inconsistencies in IoT software development.},

   process, product, resource, and end-user characteristics of a project to
   ensure that the model is robust and considers all aspects of the system.
   Multiple Data Mining techniques are used to refine the model and data is
   enriched by the use of Text Mining for knowledge discovery from
   qualitative information. The study demonstrates the suitability of Data
   Mining and Text Mining for model building. Results indicate that project
   type, end-user activity, process quality, team size and project
   popularity have a significant impact on the defect density of
   operational OSS projects. Since many organizations, both for profit and
   not for profit, are beginning to use Open Source Software as an economic

   in a violent flow field with the modified dynamic boundary condition;
   (ii) the dynamics of the gas phase is essential in the calculation of
   wave breaking with rapid gate opening; and (iii) if the density
   diffusion parameter is too large, the impact pressure may be
   underestimated. The practical contribution by this study is to find that
   DualSPHysics well reproduces complex breaking waves, including
   multi-phase gas-liquid flows, and that the wave impact pressure is
   accurate by comparison with existing experimental results. This allows
   us to understand the complex behavior of fluid-structure interactions in
   coastal engineering by means of DualSPHysics.},

Abstract = {Mapping and investigating land use land cover (LULC) changes over a
   particular region is crucial for resource management, sustainability
   development, and holistic planning. An increasing rate of urban growth
   and urban sprawl could induce changes in land use as well as land
   transformation. However, accurate and up-to-date information about LULC
   is required for providing better understanding and assessing the
   environmental consequences of such changes. In this study, the 2017
   image from the Sentinel-2A Satellite was utilized to demonstrate the
   land cover classification analysis in Iskandar Malaysia. Usually, land
   use classification analysis is conducted through proprietary GIS
   software. However, this decade shows the advancement in software
   development, thus the emerging of free/open source software in the
   geospatial world. Hence, to execute land cover analysis using the
   Unsupervised Classification technique, the proprietary GIS software
   (ArcGIS) and free/open source software (QGIS) were deployed. Then, the
   examination of accuracy assessment was carried out for the selected
   software. The sum of 250 random points was established for the
   assessment purpose. The results showed the overall accuracy for ArcGIS
   and QGIS were 82.80\% and 80.40\% respectively. The kappa coefficient
   for ArcGIS was 0.7395, while kappa coefficient for QGIS was 0.7094.
   Besides that, ArcGIS demonstrated better producer's accuracy in the
   forest and agriculture land covers classification. Meanwhile, QGIS
   exhibited better producer's accuracy in the built-up and water features
   classification. To summarize, ArcGIS and QGIS software are reliable to
   be used in the land cover classification.},

Abstract = {Contributions by individual open source software (OSS) community members
   are the lifeblood of the OSS projects that power today's digital economy
   and are important for the very survival of such communities. Individual
   contributions by OSS community members to others' projects and their own
   determine whether OSS communities are resilient in the face of major
   shocks. Arguably, if crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic prompt users
   to reduce their contributions to others' projects relative to the
   contributions to their own projects, such behavior can have implications
   for the overall resilience of the OSS community. Therefore, whether and
   how individuals change their contributions in the face of a crisis is an
   important question. We examine whether members in an OSS community
   increased or decreased their contributions to others' projects relative
   to their own in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, a sudden and
   unexpected global health-related shock that has affected almost
   everyone. We also compare and contrast this behavior when the OSS
   community faced increasing unemployment, an economic cyclic shock that
   is arguably and relatively more personal. Drawing on the concept of
   prosocial behavior and conservation of resources (COR) theory, we
   hypothesize that the pandemic increased OSS community members'
   contributions to others' projects relative to their own; on the other
   hand, the threat of rising unemployment decreased OSS community members'
   contributions to others' projects relative to their own. Our empirical
   analyses of a longitudinal dataset of over 18,000 OSS community members
   on GitHub, with more than 1.4 million member-day observations, support
   our hypotheses. This study contributes by uncovering the differential
   effects of exogenous health-related and economic shocks on the
   resilience of the OSS community. We conclude with a discussion of our
   findings' implications for OSS community resilience.},

Title = {Open or closing doors? The influence of `digital sovereignty' in the
   EU's Cybersecurity Strategy on cybersecurity of open-source software},
Journal = {COMPUTER LAW \& SECURITY REVIEW},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {56},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {`Digital sovereignty' is the geopolitical mantra of the moment. A key
   agent of that policy shift, the European Union ('EU') has increasingly
   embraced `digital sovereignty' as both the ideological foundation and
   impetus for building its digital future in accordance with `European
   values and principles,' often driven by and intersecting with
   cybersecurity concerns as articulated in its 2020 Cybersecurity Strategy
   for the Digital Decade ('Strategy'). Yet it is impossible to consider
   cybersecurity without open-source software ('OSS'). Increasingly, the
   EU, USA and other Governments have recognised that fact in the wake of
   HeartBleed and Log4j incidents. OSS' decentralised governance and
   ubiquity, underpinning most software worldwide, may amplify
   vulnerabilities and adverse effects of cyberattacks, whilst its
   typically collaborative model of development and innovation often
   fosters valuable, open cybersecurity solutions. In navigating that
   policy tightrope of OSS as a double-edged sword for cybersecurity, the
   EU has adopted `closed' language of `digital sovereignty' that is
   ostensibly contrary to the `open' nature of OSS. That rhetorical duality
   is particularly pronounced since the EU described OSS as a tool for
   realising its `digital sovereignty,' in addition to policy support for
   `a global, open, interoperable cyberspace' alongside the pursuit of
   `digital sovereignty.' While there is a epistemic gap in understanding
   the relationship between the EU's rhetoric of `digital sovereignty' and
   reality, nascent studies indicate that it has a tangible effect on
   policy change in multiple digital spheres, generally furthering a degree
   of `control.' However, that relationship within the OSS cybersecurity
   context has underexplored and poorly understood, although that policy is
   a priority for the EU and may bear significant implications for OSS
   globally. Particularly analyzing the Cyber Resilience Act ('CRA') as key
   means for implementing the EU's Strategy and its first cybersecurity
   legislation that would comprehensively engage OSS if adopted by the
   Council, this article argues that the EU's desire to strengthening
   cybersecurity in OSS is generally welcome. Yet there is an ostensibly a
   disjunct between `digital sovereignty' that underpins that legislation
   and OSS cybersecurity, with too much control of OSS potentially proving
   counterproductive for EU cybersecurity. This paper illustrates that (i)
   it is imperative for the EU to address OSS cybersecurity; (ii) yet the
   lens of digital sovereignty is ostensibly a rough fit for that approach,
   considering OSS' philosophy and practice; and (iii) based on the CRA,
   EU's practice of translating `digital sovereignty' into policy change is
   mixed, leaving uncertain ramifications for OSS cybersecurity in the EU
   and beyond. On the one hand, it moves towards more `control' at least in
   determining definitional parameters and power dynamics with novel
   `stewardship' positions for certain OSS entities. That said, the EU
   generally seeks to leverage OSS to further their regional embrace of OSS
   rather than to exclude others. Ultimately, the EU has a valuable
   leadership opportunity to drive forward solutions to OSS cybersecurity
   in collaboration with others whilst avoiding fragmentation, keeping
   doors open in recognising that global challenges demand global
   solutions. That is in its enlightened self-interest.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) communities are dependent on the code
   contributions of developers who, in many cases, never meet face-to-face
   and collaborate primarily through technology-enabled means. With their
   fluid membership, such communities often rely on engaging the commitment
   of developers to their cause. Given the changing nature of OSS
   communities, developers face barriers in appreciating appropriate ways
   of contributing to the collaborative effort. Such uncertainty about how
   to contribute results in OSS communities losing developers as they
   devote their attention to other, more welcoming, communities. In this
   research, we draw upon uncertainty reduction theory to argue that
   developers have two alternative avenues at their disposal to gain
   certainty about how to contribute: passive and interactive. Leveraging
   the person-environment fit perspective, we argue that congruence and
   incongruence in the OSS values of a developer and an OSS community serve
   as an avenue for passive approaches to gaining certainty, to the degree
   that appropriate ways of contributing are encoded in these values.
   Further, leveraging social network theory, we argue that centrality
   within a community's communication network constitutes an avenue for
   interactive approaches for gaining certainty about how to contribute.
   Using polynomial regression analysis, we analyze survey and archival
   data from 410 developers in an OSS community. Results suggest that
   developer centrality moderates the impact of congruence and incongruence
   in OSS values on commitment. Moreover, commitment fully mediates the
   impact of OSS value congruence and incongruence on developer
   contribution activity. We discuss the implications of our findings for
   research and practice.},

Title = {Quantitative structure?property relationships for the calculation of the
   soil adsorption coefficient using machine learning algorithms with
   calculated chemical properties from open-source software},
Journal = {ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {196},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {The soil adsorption coefficient (Koc) is an environmental fate parameter
   that is essential for environmental risk assessment. However, obtaining
   Koc requires a significant amount of time and enormous expenditure.
   Thus, it is necessary to efficiently estimate Koc in the early stages of
   a chemical?s development. In this study, a quantitative
   structure-property relationship (QSPR) model was developed using
   calculated physicochemical properties and molecular descriptors with the
   OPEn structure-activity/property Relationship App (OPERA) and Mordred
   software using the largest available Koc dataset. Specifically, we
   compared the accuracies of the model using the light gradient boosted
   machine (LightGBM), a gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT) algorithm,
   with those of previous models. The experimental results suggested the
   potential to develop a QSPR model that will produce highly accurate Koc
   values using molecular descriptors and physicochemical properties.
   Unlike previous studies, the use of a combination of LightGBM, OPERA and
   Mordred enables the prediction of Koc for many chemicals with high
   accuracy. In this study, OPERA was used to calculate the physicochemical
   properties, and Mordred was used to calculate molecular descriptors. The
   wide range of chemicals covered by OPERA and Mordred enables the
   analysis of a diverse range of chemical compounds. We also report a
   method to tune the LightBGM program. The use of fast-processing
   software, such as LightGBM, enables parameter tuning of a method
   required to obtain best performance. Our research represents one of the
   few studies in the field of environmental chemistry to use LightGBM.
   Using physicochemical properties as well as molecular descriptors, we
   could develop highly accurate Koc prediction models when compared to
   prior studies. In addition, our QSPR models may be useful for
   preliminary environmental risk assessment without incurring significant
   costs during the early chemical developmental stage.},

   community members. Moreover, alignment of community operations with

Abstract = {The goal of a Network of Competence Centers is to provide to FLOSS
   users, developers, and consumers, high-quality resources and expertise
   on the various topics related to FLOSS. This may be achieved via
   education, training, consulting, hosting, and certification not only in
   terms of tools and platforms but also methodologies, studies, and best
   practices. Based on the experience of QualiPSo Competence Centres, we
   observe how such a Network is working as a mechanism for sharing success
   stories, failures, questions, recommendations, best practices, and any
   kind of information that could help the establishment of a solid
   international collaborative environment for supporting quality in FLOSS.
   New Competence Centres are invited to the QualiPSo Network after their
   proposals are evaluated by the QualiPSo Competence Centres Board to
   ensure that the prospective Competence Centre is compliant with the
   QualiPSo Network Agreement, sharing a common vision and ethics. Each
   Competence Centre acts in its geographical region to increase the
   awareness of FLOSS and to better prepare the IT workforce for developing
   and using FLOSS based solutions. As of 2009, the process for Competence
   Centre creation is sustainable and reusable; guidelines for establishing
   proposals and opening new Competence Centres have been created, and
   promotion of Qualipso Competence Centres is done world wide from India
   to USA thanks to key initiatives such as the Open World Forum and the
   FLOSS Competence Centre Summit. This lecture will expose how these
   Competence Centres relate to each other, which governance model is used
   and, based on existing experiences, will describe how they currently
   operate in Europe and Brazil and what is planned in Italy, Belgium,
   Japan, and China for 2010.},

Title = {Comparative evaluation of open source software for mapping between
   metabolite identifiers in metabolic network reconstructions: application
   to Recon 2},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CHEMINFORMATICS},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {6},
Month = {JAN 27},
Abstract = {Background: An important step in the reconstruction of a metabolic
   network is annotation of metabolites. Metabolites are generally
   annotated with various database or structure based identifiers.
   Metabolite annotations in metabolic reconstructions may be incorrect or
   incomplete and thus need to be updated prior to their use. Genome-scale
   metabolic reconstructions generally include hundreds of metabolites.
   Manually updating annotations is therefore highly laborious. This
   prompted us to look for open-source software applications that could
   facilitate automatic updating of annotations by mapping between
   available metabolite identifiers. We identified three applications
   developed for the metabolomics and chemical informatics communities as
   potential solutions. The applications were MetMask, the Chemical
   Translation System, and UniChem. The first implements a ``metabolite
   masking{''} strategy for mapping between identifiers whereas the latter
   two implement different versions of an InChI based strategy. Here we
   evaluated the suitability of these applications for the task of mapping
   between metabolite identifiers in genome-scale metabolic
   reconstructions. We applied the best suited application to updating
   identifiers in Recon 2, the latest reconstruction of human metabolism.
   Results: All three applications enabled partially automatic updating of
   metabolite identifiers, but significant manual effort was still required
   to fully update identifiers. We were able to reduce this manual effort
   by searching for new identifiers using multiple types of information
   about metabolites. When multiple types of information were combined, the
   Chemical Translation System enabled us to update over 3,500 metabolite
   identifiers in Recon 2. All but approximately 200 identifiers were
   updated automatically.
   Conclusions: We found that an InChI based application such as the
   Chemical Translation System was better suited to the task of mapping
   between metabolite identifiers in genome-scale metabolic
   reconstructions. We identified several features, however, that could be
   added to such an application in order to tailor it to this task.},

Volume = {21},

Abstract = {Drawing on social capital theory, we develop a theoretical model aiming
   to explore how open source software (OSS) project effectiveness (in
   terms of team size, team effort and team's level of completion) is
   affected by expertise integration. This in turn is influenced by three
   types of social capital - relational capital, cognitive capital and
   structural capital. In addition, this study also examines two moderating
   effects - the impact of technical complexity on the relationship between
   cognitive capital and expertise integration, and of task interdependence
   on the relationship between expertise integration and task completion.
   Through a field survey of 160 OSS members from five Taiwanese
   communities, there is support for some of the proposed hypotheses. Both
   reciprocity and centrality affect expertise integration as expected, but
   the influence of commitment and cognitive capital (including expertise
   and tenure) on expertise integration is not significant. Finally,
   expertise integration affects both team size and team effort, which in
   turn jointly influence task completion. This research contributes to
   advancing theoretical understanding of the effectiveness of free OSS
   development as well as providing OSS practitioners with insight into how
   to leverage social capital for improving the performance of OSS
   development.},

Abstract = {In recent years, a very important structural change in the software
   industry took place, with an increasing number of firms that got
   involved in Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) development
   communities. FLOSS communities and products have been studied as
   complementary to proprietary software companies and products. In this
   paper we propone a business model for the software market, and in
   particular we analyze the competition between proprietary software firms
   and FLOSS firms. Our software market is a system where each agent is
   independent of each other in the choice about buying or selling software
   products or services. The proposed work aims to analyze the influence of
   FLOSS firms producing both software and services in vertical software
   markets, nowadays mostly dominated by large proprietary firms. The
   findings show that FLOSS firms are able to compete with proprietary
   firms, though in the end a monopoly or oligopoly of the latters emerges.
   The ousted FLOSS firms, however, survive longer than proprietary ones,
   when these are not able to compete in the market.},

Journal = {GPS SOLUTIONS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {28},
Number = {1},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Variometric approach (VA) technique has been introduced as an
   alternative to real-time kinematics and real-time precise point
   positioning techniques. As the ability of the variometric approach to
   detect short-term dynamic behaviors in real-time mode in applications
   such as Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS)-seismology and
   structural health monitoring is demonstrated, the demand for open-source
   VA software is increasing. However, open-source software that is capable
   of VA processing in real-time mode based on single- and dual-frequency
   multi-GNSS observations is scarce. In view of this fact, we have
   developed an open-source VA processing software called PPPH-VA that can
   evaluate single- and dual-frequency multi-GNSS observations in real-time
   mode. PPPH-VA is developed in the MATLAB environment, and it can
   simultaneously process GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou-2, and BeiDou-3
   data with the VA technique in real-time mode, employing both single- and
   dual-frequency observations. We evaluated PPPH-VA using shake table
   experiments based on real data, and the results demonstrate that it
   provides high accuracy in terms of detection of dynamic displacements.
   Toolbox can successfully detect the dominant frequencies of short-term
   dynamic behaviors and is capable of determining the amplitude values
   corresponding to the peak frequency at the sub-mm level. Moreover, in
   the time domain, it can obtain dynamic behaviors with an accuracy of
   millimeters.},

   objective is to develop tools to assist OSS developers to extract and
   reconstruct design relevant information from previous discussions. We
   show how quotation practices can be used to locate design relevant data
   in discussion archives. OSS developers use quotation as a mechanism to
   maintain the discursive context. To retrace thematic coherence in the
   online discussions of a major OSS project, Python, we follow how
   messages are linked through quotation practices. We compare our
   quotation-based analysis with a more conventional, thread-based analysis
   of the (reply-to) links between messages. The advantages of a
   quotation-based analysis over a thread-based analysis are outlined. Our
   approach provides a means to analyze argumentation and design rationales
   and promises a novel means to discover design relevant information in
   the archives of online discussions. Our analysis reveals also the links
   between the social structure and elements in the discussion space and
   how it shapes influence in the design process.},

Abstract = {Extant research on open source software (OSS) has primarily focused on

   diffusion of OSS, and we need more research to understand their
   behaviors and motivations. We address this gap by drawing on the
   sociological theory of community markers. The three community markers in
   the context of OSS are loyalty, ideology, and identification. We also
   draw on marketing literature to propose four contributory behaviors of
   passive users of OSS that we theorize to be impacted by the community
   markers: user brand-extension, word-of-mouth, endorsement, and community
   involvement. We further classify passive users' contributory behaviors
   according to the difficulty of their enactment and examine the
   differential influence of the OSS community markers. Partial-least
   squares (PLS) analyses of data obtained through a survey of passive
   users of an OSS product provide support for the majority of the

   Open-Source Software Based on the Fracture Locus of Materials},
Journal = {MATERIALS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {16},
Number = {1},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {An accurate fracture simulation is often associated with how reliably
   the material model is represented. Hence, many models dealing with the
   calibration of ductile damage of materials have already been developed
   to predict failure initiation. Nevertheless, the challenge remains in
   obtaining an accurate representation of the fracture growth. Herein, an
   element deletion algorithm is developed and implemented into finite
   element open-source software. The deleted elements are replaced by new
   cells made of a virtual low-stiffness material. To better visualize the
   failure progression, the final model excludes these virtual cells from
   the representation. The functionality of the algorithm is tested through
   a series of two-dimensional simulations on three different geometries
   with a well-known behavior under uniaxial tension. Moreover, the failure
   response of a three-dimensional lattice structure is numerically
   investigated and compared against experimental data. The results of the
   two-dimensional simulations showed the capability of the algorithm to
   predict the onset of failure, crack nucleation, and fracture growth.
   Similarly, the onset and the initial fracture region were accurately
   captured in the three-dimensional case, with some convergence issues
   that prevent the visualization of the fracture growth. Overall, the
   results are encouraging, and the algorithm can be improved to introduce
   other computational functionalities.},

   Information System (FOSS-GIS) training is the appropriate solution
   through the community service and empowerment program from university.
   This study aims to determine the effect of FOSS-GIS training on spatial
   habits, spatial knowledge, and spatial skills. The online training was
   attended by 24 participants who are officials from the government of
   Pangandaran Regency. To determine the effect, we used Wilcoxon's Test
   and Paired Sample T-Test on spatial habits and spatial knowledge. We
   analyzed the spatial skills of self-paced tasks and presentation of
   results by the participants. This study shows a positive effect of
   FOSS-GIS training which can be seen from the increase in scores between
   pre-test and post-test. The spatial habits increased 5.4 percent,

Abstract = {To address the challenges of sustainable management and development of
   the built environment, engineers and facility managers need to exploit
   the 3D City models which grown in recent years to include interior
   space. A crucial issue for facilitating interaction with these 3D city
   models is the ability to integrate 3D BIM into the geospatial context.
   This requires the use of specialized software and specific expertise. In
   order to simplify this process, we here propose an information system
   that facilitates the use of BIM for geo-analysis purposes. BIM4GeoA is a
   concept for combining existing open source software and open
   specification for efficient data management and analysis of Building
   Information within its boarder context. The core components are the
   spatial database PostgreSQL/PostGIS, the building information server,
   the industrial foundation class (IFC), the Google Earth 3D viewer, and

Abstract = {Geographical Information Systems (GIS) have been used widely in zoology
   and ecology, particularly in herpetology. The use of spatially explicit
   analysis has increased during the last decade, with the consequent
   expansion of GIS application in ecology. During the last years,
   geo-information technology has been developed within the Free/Open
   Source Software (FOSS) community, resulting in new open source formats
   and several GIS packages. However, proprietary packages seem still to be
   the first choice for herpetologists, thus involving non negligible costs
   for GIS technology adoption. Additional costs arise from environmental
   data, which are usually expensive, worsening in the case of large study
   areas. An alternative solution is to use freely available data, despite
   a possible decrease of resolution. In this review, we aim to show the
   feasibility of spatial analysis within FOSS GIS packages, rank these
   packages using the number of available tools and list several data
   sources freely available on the Internet. We listed several websites
   providing the most important free data for spatial analysis, i.e.
   altitude and derived data; past, current and future climatic series
   data; and satellite derived data. We provide also a list of the most
   commonly used functions in GIS analysis and their availability in the
   six software compared in this study (ArcGIS; gvSIG; ILWIS; Quantum GIS;
   GRASS; and DIVA-GIS). The software gvSIG is the one with more functions
   (106) followed by Quantum GIS with 94 and GRASS with 84.},

Abstract = {Usability is an important aspect of Free-Libre Open Source Software

   such projects. Organizational boundary literature is interested in the
   tensions of online communities, including FLOSS communities. While this
   literature recognizes the importance of managing boundaries in online
   communities, little empirical research has been conducted on actual
   gatekeeping tactics project members perform against outsiders'
   contributions. Based on several years of engaged research with FLOSS
   projects, we characterize three gatekeeping tactics in FLOSS projects:
   non-response, social exclusion, and false acceptance. They all have
   hindered usability work. We also offer examples of usability specialists
   and their contributions succeeding in avoiding these gatekeeping tactics
   in FLOSS projects. This paper provides an important contribution to the
   boundary management literature through detailed examination of
   gatekeeping tactics in action, as well as to the Human Computer

Abstract = {This paper focuses on the uptake of open source software in small and
   medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Western Cape. SMEs aim to become
   more efficient and competitive, but often experience challenges. Open
   Source Software (OSS) is considered to yield key benefits for SMEs
   because it is free to access, distribute and customise, peer-reviewed
   for reliability. However, certain drawbacks can hinder SMEs from
   adopting OSS such as uncertain support, need for technical skill for
   usage, incomplete functionality to mention a few. The broadband
   initiative in the Western Cape looked to enable the access of OSS online
   through the provision of broadband internet for organisations including
   SMEs. This research was aimed, through a qualitative analysis, mainly at
   examining the attitude of SMEs toward OSS by analysing the benefits as
   well as the drawbacks of using OSS. The research also analysed the
   effect of the broadband initiative on the attitude of SMEs toward OSS
   uptake. Additionally, the roles that intermediaries undertake in OSS
   communities for promoting the uptake of OSS in SMEs, which were
   investigated were decentralised school, bridging school, arterial
   school, communities of practice and ecosystems school. These
   intermediary roles were analysed to find out which role would be most
   significant for facilitating OSS uptake.},

   In this paper we raise this question and propose an ontology (called

Abstract = {We describe the development of the Singing Ability Assessment (SAA)
   open-source test environment. The SAA captures and scores different
   aspects of human singing ability and melodic memory in the context of
   item response theory. Taking perspectives from both melodic recall and
   singing accuracy literature, we present results from two online
   experiments (N = 247; N = 910). On-the-fly audio transcription is
   produced via a probabilistic algorithm and scored via latent variable
   approaches. Measures of the ability to sing long notes indicate a
   three-dimensional principal components analysis solution representing
   pitch accuracy, pitch volatility and changes in pitch stability
   (proportion variance explained: 35\%; 33\%; 32\%). For melody singing, a
   mixed-effects model uses features of melodic structure (e.g., tonality,
   melody length) to predict overall sung melodic recall performance via a
   composite score {[}R(2)c = .42; R(2)m = .16]. Additionally, two separate
   mixed-effects models were constructed to explain performance in singing
   back melodies in a rhythmic {[}R(2)c = .42; R(2)m = .13] and an
   arhythmic {[}R(2)c = .38; R(2)m = .11] condition. Results showed that
   the yielded SAA melodic scores are significantly associated with
   previously described measures of singing accuracy, the long note singing
   accuracy measures, demographic variables, and features of participants'
   hardware setup. Consequently, we release five R packages which
   facilitate deploying melodic stimuli online and in laboratory contexts,
   constructing audio production tests, transcribing audio in the R
   environment, and deploying the test elements and their supporting
   models. These are published as open-source, easy to access, and flexible
   to adapt.},

Abstract = {Over the last decades, the Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS)
   phenomenon has been a topic of study and a source of real-life artifacts
   for software engineering research. A FLOSS project usually has a
   community around its project, organically producing informative
   resources to describe how, when, and why a particular change occurred in
   the source code or the development flow. Therefore, when studying this
   kind of project, collecting and analyzing texts and artifacts can
   promote a more comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon and the
   variety of organizational settings. However, despite the importance of
   examining Grey Literature (GL), such as technical reports, white papers,
   magazines, and blog posts for studying FLOSS projects, the GL Review is
   still an emerging technique in software engineering studies, lacking a
   well-established investigative methodology. To mitigate this gap, we
   present and discuss challenges and adaptations for the planning and
   execution of GL reviews in the FLOSS scenario. We provide a set of
   guidelines and lessons learned for further research, using, as an
   example, a review we are conducting on the Linux kernel development

Title = {A methodology for assessing rooftop solar photovoltaic potential using
   GIS open-source software and the EROI constraint},
Journal = {ENERGY AND BUILDINGS},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {331},
Month = {MAR 15},
Abstract = {Energy consumption and carbon emissions are concentrated in cities,
   where 70 \% of the global population is projected to live by 2050. Urban
   environments must therefore be at the heart of any global energy
   transition. Furthermore, land availability is a limiting factor for
   renewable deployment and rooftop PV thus offers a clear advantage. This
   research is based on the rooftop photovoltaic potential (RPVP) of the
   city of Vitoria-Gasteiz; its ultimate goal is to provide stakeholders
   with a useful and free tool to calculate a highly accurate RPVP
   (including different tilt and orientation angles, shadowing, temperature
   effect, energy return on energy investment (EROI) constraint and
   available surface area) and based exclusively on free-to-use and
   open-source software. The EROI constraint is a fundamental step towards
   the net energy analysis being integrated in the RPVP assessment. This
   paper is a contribution not only to the application of the EROI
   constraint, but also to the calculation of this indicator. Results
   improve on estimates commonly found in the literature. With an EROI > 5
   (8.83 on average), Vitoria-Gasteiz has a RPVP of 473 GWh/year, able to
   supply 38 \% of the total electricity consumption of the city and where
   50 \% of total rooftop area is suitable for PV. Therefore, the rooftop
   PV performance in Vitoria-Gasteiz is sufficiently good to provide the
   net energy required to sustain today's industrial societies.
   Additionally, this article provides valuable information, such as
   rooftop usability factors, and an overall reduction factor (CT), useful
   to extend RPVP assessment to larger areas using constant value methods.},

Title = {A funfair without the candy floss: engaging communities to prevent
   diabetes in Nepal},
Journal = {PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {193},
Pages = {23-25},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Objectives: The World Health Organization estimates that 422 million
   people have diabetes, three-quarters of whom live in low- and
   middle-income countries. Global action plans to address non-communicable
   diseases (NCDs) recognise the centrality of community engagement to
   create an enabling environment within which to address risk factors.
   Study design: In this article, we describe and critically reflect on a
   cocreated community engagement approach to address type 2 diabetes in
   the southern plains of Nepal. We coproduced the engagement approach with
   40 artists from the Janakpur Women's Development Centre to create an
   environment for dialogue about diabetes and NCD risk between artists and
   the general public.
   Methods: We used participatory action research to produce contextually
   relevant interactive methods and materials. Methods included artists'
   peer research to inform creative workshops, a drama performed in 19
   villages and a two-day funfair in a public park. We used qualitative and
   participatory methods to analyse the effect of this engagement and
   reflect on lessons learned.
   Results: Around 2000 people saw the drama, and around 4000 people
   attended the funfair. Community dialogue about prevention of diabetes
   was facilitated by drama and through games and songs at the funfair.
   Artists grew confident to interact with their peers and drama audiences
   about the causes of diabetes and prevention strategies. Despite crowds
   at the funfair, it was difficult to reach women because the venue was
   often used by men and boys, and patriarchal norms prevent women from
   free movement. Village interactions were able to engage a more mixed
   audience.
   Conclusion: Innovative, asset-based community engagement about diabetes
   and other NCDs at scale is possible through locating, building on and
   strengthening community resources to address local health issues.
   Engagement could be enhanced by considering the gendered nature of
   community engagement spaces and by increasing opportunities for
   interaction between artists and the general public through more intimate
   and large-scale events. (C) 2021 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd

Abstract = {Glycans are responsible for many biological activities; however, their
   structures are incredibly diverse and complex, often rendering the field
   of glycomics unsolvable by a single analytical technique. The
   development of multiple chemical derivatization strategies and
   bioinformatic software is responsible for some of the greatest
   analytical gains in the field of glycomics. The INLIGHT strategy is a
   chemical derivatization technique using hydrazide chemistry to
   derivatize the reducing end of N-linked glycans and incorporates either
   a natural (NAT, C-12(6)) or a stable-isotope label (SIL, C-13(6)) to
   carry out relative quantification. Here we present GlycoHunter, a
   user-friendly software created in MATLAB that enables researchers to
   accurately and efficiently process MS1 glycomics data where a NAT and
   SIL pair is generated for relative quantification, including but not
   limited to, INLIGHT. GlycoHunter accepts the commonly used data file
   formats imzML and mzXML and effectively identifies all peak pairs
   associated with NAT- and SIL-labeled N-linked glycans using MS1 data. It
   also includes the ability to tailor the search parameters and export the

Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {217},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Issues associated with a lack of diversity and inclusivity persist in
   the domain of free/libre and open source software (FLOSS) development
   and in software development generally. Researchers have suggested that
   the corporatization of FLOSS affords opportunities for creating an
   inclusive workforce. To understand the potential for firms to increase
   diversity, we conducted a mixed-methods study of diversity and corporate
   engagement in FLOSS projects. We integrate the results of a qualitative
   survey and a big data analysis to understand developer perceptions of
   corporate engagement and its association with gender and geographic
   diversity. In the qualitative component, we collected responses from 64
   FLOSS contributors to elicit their perspectives on corporate engagement.
   In the quantitative component, we analyzed GitHub data from 38 projects
   and 9,990 contributors to investigate differences in participation and
   diversity based on corporate engagement. We find that contributors vary
   across dimensions that can inform diversity interventions: stances
   toward corporations and orientation towards individual/collective
   benefits. Our results suggest that corporate engagement may limit a
   project's contributor base and geographic diversity. Yet, organizations
   subsidizing FLOSS have opportunities to increase access to projects
   which would benefit diversity. This research serves to identify
   individual and organizational factors which may harm and help diversity

Title = {An operational land cover and land cover change toolbox: processing
   open-source data with open-source software},
Journal = {ECOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS AND EVIDENCE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {3},
Number = {3},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Accurate and up-to-date land cover maps are vital for underpinning
   evidence-based landscape management decision-making. However, the
   technical skills required to extract tailored information about land
   cover dynamics from these open-access geospatial data often limit their
   use by those making landscape management decisions. Using Dartmoor
   National Park as an example, we demonstrate an open-source toolkit which
   uses open-source software (QGIS and RStudio) to process freely available
   Sentinel-2 and public LiDAR data sets to produce fine scale (10 m(2)
   grain size) land cover maps. The toolbox has been designed for use by
   staff within the national park, for example, enabling land cover maps to
   be updated as required in the future. An area of 945 km(2) was mapped
   using a trained random forest classifier following a classification
   scheme tailored to the needs of the national park. A 2019 land cover map
   had an overall user's accuracy of 79\%, with 13 out of 17 land cover
   classes achieving greater than 70\% accuracy. Spatially, accuracy was
   related via logistical regression to blue band surface reflectance in
   the spring and topographic slope derived from LiDAR (1 m resolution),
   with greater accuracy in steeper terrain and areas exhibiting higher

Title = {ImShot: An Open-Source Software for Probabilistic Identification of
   Proteins<i> In</i><i> Situ</i> and Visualization of Proteomics Data},
Journal = {MOLECULAR \& CELLULAR PROTEOMICS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {21},
Number = {6},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) has developed into a powerful tool
   allowing label-free detection of numerous biomolecules in situ. In
   contrast to shotgun proteomics, proteins/peptides can be detected
   directly from biological tissues and correlated to its morphology
   leading to a gain of crucial clinical information. However, direct
   identification of the detected molecules is currently challenging for
   MALDI-IMS, thereby compelling researchers to use complementary
   techniques and resource intensive experimental setups. Despite these
   strategies, sufficient information could not be extracted because of
   lack of an optimum data combination strategy/software. Here, we
   introduce a new open-source software ImShot that aims at identifying
   peptides obtained in MALDI-IMS. This is achieved by combining
   information from IMS and shotgun proteomics (LC-MS) measurements of
   serial sections of the same tissue. The software takes advantage of a
   two group comparison to determine the search space of IMS masses after
   deisotoping the corresponding spectra. Ambiguity in annotations of IMS
   peptides is eliminated by introduction of a novel scoring system that
   identifies the most likely parent protein of a detected peptide in the
   corresponding IMS dataset. Thanks to its modular structure, the software
   can also handle LC-MS data separately and display interactive enrichment
   plots and enriched Gene Ontology terms or cellular pathways. The
   software has been built as a desktop application with a conveniently
   designed graphic user interface to provide users with a seamless
   experience in data analysis. ImShot can run on all the three major
   desktop operating systems and is freely available under Massachusetts
   Institute of Technology license.},

Abstract = {In this paper, we investigate group maintenance behavior in

   specifically, social presence and politeness tactics that help maintain
   relationships among group members. Developer email messages were
   collected from two FLOSS projects with different development statuses,
   and their content was analyzed to identify frequently used group
   maintenance tactics. We then compared the group maintenance tactics used
   in the two projects, finding differences that reflect changes in the
   project work practices. Our work theoretically contributes to FLOSS
   research and has practical implications for FLOSS practitioners. (C)

Abstract = {We present an open-source software package, HADOKEN (High-level
   Algorithms to Design, Optimize, and Keep Electrons in Nanowires), for
   predicting electron confinement/localization effects in nanowires with
   various geometries, arbitrary number of concentric shell layers, doping
   densities, and external boundary conditions. The HADOKEN code is written
   in the MATLAB programming environment to aid in its readability and
   general accessibility to both users and practitioners. We provide
   several examples and outputs on a variety of different nanowire
   geometries, boundary conditions, and doping densities to demonstrate the
   capabilities of the HADOKEN software package. As such, the use of this
   predictive and versatile tool by both experimentalists and theorists
   could lead to further advances in both understanding and tailoring
   electron confinement effects in these nanosystems.

Title = {AUREA: an open-source software system for accurate and user-friendly
   identification of relative expression molecular signatures},
Journal = {BMC BIOINFORMATICS},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {14},
Month = {MAR 5},
Abstract = {Background: Public databases such as the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus
   contain extensive and exponentially increasing amounts of
   high-throughput data that can be applied to molecular phenotype
   characterization. Collectively, these data can be analyzed for such
   purposes as disease diagnosis or phenotype classification. One family of
   algorithms that has proven useful for disease classification is based on
   relative expression analysis and includes the Top-Scoring Pair (TSP),
   k-Top-Scoring Pairs (k-TSP), Top-Scoring Triplet (TST) and Differential
   Rank Conservation (DIRAC) algorithms. These relative expression analysis
   algorithms hold significant advantages for identifying interpretable
   molecular signatures for disease classification, and have been
   implemented previously on a variety of computational platforms with
   varying degrees of usability. To increase the user-base and maximize the
   utility of these methods, we developed the program AUREA (Adaptive
   Unified Relative Expression Analyzer)-a cross-platform tool that has a
   consistent application programming interface (API), an easy-to-use
   graphical user interface (GUI), fast running times and automated
   parameter discovery.
   Results: Herein, we describe AUREA, an efficient, cohesive, and
   user-friendly open-source software system that comprises a suite of
   methods for relative expression analysis. AUREA incorporates existing
   methods, while extending their capabilities and bringing uniformity to
   their interfaces. We demonstrate that combining these algorithms and
   adaptively tuning parameters on the training sets makes these algorithms
   more consistent in their performance and demonstrate the effectiveness
   of our adaptive parameter tuner by comparing accuracy across diverse
   datasets.
   Conclusions: We have integrated several relative expression analysis
   algorithms and provided a unified interface for their implementation
   while making data acquisition, parameter fixing, data merging, and
   results analysis `point- and -click' simple. The unified interface and
   the adaptive parameter tuning of AUREA provide an effective framework in
   which to investigate the massive amounts of publically available data by
   both `in silico' and `bench' scientists. AUREA can be found at

   collaborative OSS communities},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ORGANIZATIONAL ANALYSIS},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {25},
Number = {2},
Pages = {346-374},
Abstract = {Purpose - This paper aims to present that deliberate change is strongly
   associated with formal structures and top-down influence. Hierarchical
   configurations have been used to structure processes, overcome
   resistance and get things done. But is deliberate change also possible
   without formal structures and hierarchical influence?
   Design/methodology/approach - This longitudinal, qualitative study
   investigates an open-source software (OSS) community named TYPO3. This
   case exhibits no formal hierarchical attributes. The study is based on
   mailing lists, interviews and observations.
   Findings - The study reveals that deliberate change is indeed achievable
   in a non-hierarchical collaborative OSS community context. However, it
   presupposes the presence and active involvement of informal change
   agents. The paper identifies and specifies four key drivers for change
   agents' influence.
   Originality/value - The findings contribute to organisational analysis
   by providing a deeper understanding of the importance of leadership in
   making deliberate change possible in non-hierarchical settings. It
   points to the importance of ``change-by-conviction{''}, essentially
   based on voluntary behaviour. This can open the door to reducing the
   negative side effects of deliberate change also for hierarchical
   organisations.},

Journal = {TURK PSIKIYATRI DERGISI},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {33},
Number = {4},

Month = {WIN},
Abstract = {Objective: In many clinics, calculation and interpretation of
   neuropsychological test results, along with reporting, data organization
   and archiving of the data are done manually. In this era where most of
   the similar processes are automated, manual application may result in
   excessive time consumption, unnecessary use of qualified work-force, and
   is also open to error. A software that automates these processes for
   neuropsychological tests used for dementia assessment may overcome these
   issues.
   Methods: We aimed to develop a free, open source software not requiring
   specialized training, which would optimise the calculation, preparation
   of personal reports and archiving processes of neuropsychological tests,
   hence would easily be incorporated in to the daily work of
   psychologists. We've used Python 3.6 as the programming language, and
   JSON was used as the data interchange format to allow for personal
   alterations in the content. The tests were selected among those which
   are in common use for neuropsychological evaluation of adults in Turkey,
   with available norm values. (Funding: TUBITAK 214S048).
   Results: PsiNorm was developed, comprising widely used standardized
   tests for cognitive evaluation of adults in Turkey. The software is
   lightweight, compatible with most common operating systems, and
   easy-to-use. We've shown that Psinorm significantly reduced the time
   required for calculation of percentiles and norms as well as for
   producing a draft report. The reports are prepared in.txt format and the
   databases are prepared in MS Excel ve CSV formats. PsiNorm is available
   freely at psinorm.org.
   Conclusion: PsiNorm is a free, open-source software which is available
   for researchers and clinicians who perform neuropsychological tests.
   PsiNorm provides significant time and labor-force benefits, is
   easy-to-use and can be customized by the user.},

   make a systematic literature review of the OSS adoption, based on
   Kitchenham and Charters methodological guide; this guide consists in a

Abstract = {This paper proposes novel quantitative methods to measure the effects of
   social communications on individual working rhythms by analyzing the
   communication and code committing records in tens of Open Source
   Software (OSS) projects. Our methods are based on complex network and
   time-series analysis. We define the notion of a working rhythm as the
   average time spent on a commit task and we study the correlation between
   working rhythm and communication frequency. We build communication
   networks for code developers, and find that the developers with higher
   social status, represented by the nodes with larger number of outgoing
   or incoming links, always have faster working rhythms and thus
   contribute more per unit time to the projects. We also study the
   dependency between work (committing) and talk (communication)
   activities, in particular the effect of their interleaving. We introduce
   multi-activity time-series and quantitative measures based on activity
   latencies to evaluate this dependency. Comparison of simulated
   time-series with the real ones suggests that when work and talk
   activities are in proximity they may accelerate each other in OSS
   systems. These findings suggest that frequent communication before and
   after committing activities is essential for effective software
   development in distributed systems.},

   osteoporosis (with sham-operated control group). The animals were
   treated with alendronate, hop extract or the combination of the two.
   Whole histological slides were photographed and images were manually
   pre-processed in Gimp. Color masks from Gimp were loaded in FIJI and
   polar transformation and meas-urements were made using a custom macro.
   This analysis was supplemented by manual assessment of Ki67
   proliferation marker expression by a pathologist. Our results suggest
   that monotherapy or combination therapy with alendronate and hop extract
   does not cause proliferation of the endometrium in ovariectomized rats
   and would be safe for use in osteoporosis treatment in this regard. The

   ``CGITA{''} for Quantifying Tumor Heterogeneity with Molecular Images},
Journal = {BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {2014},
Abstract = {Background. The quantification of tumor heterogeneity with molecular
   images, by analyzing the local or global variation in the spatial
   arrangements of pixel intensity with texture analysis, possesses a great
   clinical potential for treatment planning and prognosis. To address the
   lack of available software for computing the tumor heterogeneity on the
   public domain, we develop a software package, namely, Chang-Gung Image
   Texture Analysis (CGITA) toolbox, and provide it to the research
   community as a free, open-source project. Methods. With a user-friendly
   graphical interface, CGITA provides users with an easy way to compute
   more than seventy heterogeneity indices. To test and demonstrate the
   usefulness of CGITA, we used a small cohort of eighteen locally advanced
   oral cavity (ORC) cancer patients treated with definitive
   radiotherapies. Results. In our case study of ORC data, we found that
   more than ten of the current implemented heterogeneity indices
   outperformed SUVmean for outcome prediction in the ROC analysis with a
   higher area under curve (AUC). Heterogeneity indices provide a better
   area under the curve up to 0.9 than the SUVmean and TLG (0.6 and 0.52,

   and Free or Open Source Software Implementations},
Journal = {ISPRS INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF GEO-INFORMATION},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {8},
Number = {12},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Landscape metrics constitute one of the main tools for the study of the
   changes of the landscape and of the ecological structure of a region.
   The most popular software for landscape metrics evaluation is FRAGSTATS,
   which is free to use but does not have free or open source software
   (FOSS). Therefore, FOSS implementations, such as QGIS's LecoS plugin and
   GRASS' r.li modules suite, were developed. While metrics are defined in
   the same way, the ``cell neighborhood{''} parameter, specifying the
   configuration of the moving window used for the analysis, is managed
   differently: FRAGSTATS can use values of 4 or 8 (8 is default), LecoS
   uses 8 and r.li 4. Tests were performed to evaluate the landscape
   metrics variability depending on the ``cell neighborhood{''} values:
   some metrics, such as ``edge density{''} and ``landscape shape
   index{''}, do not change, other, for example ``patch number{''}, ``patch
   density{''}, and ``mean patch area{''}, vary up to 100\% for real maps
   and 500\% for maps built to highlight this variation. A review of the
   scientific literature was carried out to check how often the value of
   the ``cell neighborhood{''} parameter is explicitly declared. A method
   based on the ``aggregation index{''} is proposed to estimate the effect
   of the uncertainty on the ``cell neighborhood{''} parameter on landscape
   metrics for different maps.},

Abstract = {This article examines distributed participatory design in open source
   software (OSS) development. User participation is becoming a relevant
   topic of research in the OSS development context. Though it has not been
   examined much to date, the OSS development context has been argued to
   advocate a particular type of participatory design, which can now be
   scrutinised in its natural setting as it evolves. Two interpretive case
   studies on user participation in OSS development are included in this
   article. The first examines a traditional community OSS development
   project; the second concentrates on the company OSS development context,
   the case being a software development unit of a global corporation
   involved in OSS development. Through analysis of the cases, different
   forms of participatory design (PD), especially of distributed PD, are
   identified. Distributed PD is interpreted to include gaining an
   understanding of users' current practices, redesigning them together
   with users and gathering feedback from users related to the solutions.
   Different kinds of roles are available to users, as well as to for
   intermediaries `representing users'. Especially, the importance of
   online forum-based and intermediary-driven PD is emphasised in this
   article. Implications for PD and OSS research and practice are
   considered.},

Abstract = {Corporations are currently making progress in their efforts toward
   traceability, against the backdrop of practical realization of automatic
   identification technologies such as RF tags and 2D barcodes. In order to
   consistently manage and access various types of product-related history
   information throughout the supply chain, it is necessary to develop
   information networks and databases for sharing that information between
   firms, and EDI systems play a central role in that context. This paper
   proposes a distributed traceability system based on open source software
   which is particularly suitable for small and medium enterprises. To do
   this, the paper first conducts an exploratory analysis of factors
   involved in the adoption of traceability systems by small and medium
   enterprises, based on a review of previous research on traceability and
   questionnaire survey data. Next, it examines the current situation and
   problems of RF tags, 2D barcodes and EDI systems, and their linkage with
   in-house backend systems. Based on the above analysis, the paper
   proposes a model of a traceability system using open source software
   which is suitable for small and medium enterprises, and discusses the
   model's practical implications.},

Title = {Modeling and Simulation of Distribution Networks with High Renewable
   Penetration in Open-Source Software: QGIS and OpenDSS},
Journal = {ENERGIES},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {17},
Number = {12},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {There are important challenges in modeling large electrical distribution
   circuits, especially with the presence of distributed renewable
   generation. Constructing simulations to assess the effect of the
   penetration of distributed generation on electrical distribution
   networks has become of great importance for Distribution Network
   Operators (DNOs). This paper proposes a simulation strategy based on
   open-source platforms and the integration of scripting tools for the
   rapid modeling of large-scale electrical distribution circuits with
   distributed renewable generation. The implementation is based on the
   adaptation of a tool called QGIS2OpenDSS, which creates OpenDSS
   distribution network models directly from an open-source geographic
   information system, QGIS. The plugin's capabilities are demonstrated
   using a real distribution feeder with more than 60\% penetration of
   renewable generation based on photovoltaic systems. These simulations
   are carried out using real data from a circuit provided by a DNO in the
   Dominican Republic, which is used to demonstrate how this approach
   provides a more accessible and flexible way to simulate and assess the
   effect of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in medium voltage (MV) and
   low voltage (LV) networks, enabling utilities to evaluate system
   performance and identify potential issues. The integration of this
   open-source tool within the DNO software stack enables users to apply it
   according to specific project needs, enhancing their capability to
   analyze and manage high DER penetration levels, aiding in better
   planning, operation, and decision-making processes related to renewable
   energy projects.},

Title = {Decon2LS: An open-source software package for automated processing and
   visualization of high resolution mass spectrometry data},
Journal = {BMC BIOINFORMATICS},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {10},
Month = {MAR 17},
Abstract = {Background: Data generated from liquid chromatography coupled to
   high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-MS)based studies of a biological
   sample can contain large amounts of biologically significant information
   in the form of proteins, peptides, and metabolites. Interpreting this
   data involves inferring the masses and abundances of biomolecules
   injected into the instrument. Because of the inherent complexity of mass
   spectral patterns produced by these biomolecules, the analysis is
   significantly enhanced by using visualization capabilities to inspect
   and confirm results. In this paper we describe Decon2LS, an open-source
   software package for automated processing and visualization of
   high-resolution MS data. Drawing extensively on algorithms developed
   over the last ten years for ICR2LS, Decon2LS packages the algorithms as
   a rich set of modular, reusable processing classes for performing
   diverse functions such as reading raw data, routine peak finding,
   theoretical isotope distribution modelling, and deisotoping. Because the
   source code is openly available, these functionalities can now be used
   to build derivative applications in relatively fast manner. In addition,
   Decon2LS provides an extensive set of visualization tools, such as high
   performance chart controls.
   Results: With a variety of options that include peak processing,
   deisotoping, isotope composition, etc, Decon2LS supports processing of
   multiple raw data formats. Deisotoping can be performed on an individual
   scan, an individual dataset, or on multiple datasets using batch
   processing. Other processing options include creating a two dimensional
   view of mass and liquid chromatography (LC) elution time features,
   generating spectrum files for tandem MS data, creating total intensity
   chromatograms, and visualizing theoretical peptide profiles. Application
   of Decon2LS to deisotope different datasets obtained across different
   instruments yielded a high number of features that can be used to
   identify and quantify peptides in the biological sample.
   Conclusion: Decon2LS is an efficient software package for discovering
   and visualizing features in proteomics studies that require automated
   interpretation of mass spectra. Besides being easy to use, fast, and
   reliable, Decon2LS is also open-source, which allows developers in the
   proteomics and bioinformatics communities to reuse and refine the
   algorithms to meet individual needs.

Abstract = {Organizations today face IT security challenges on many fronts. These
   include controlling user access to systems, resources, and data security
   issues that encompass secure storage, secure transmission, data
   authenticity and data integrity. These requirements are met by
   establishing the right policies, controls, and mechanisms that are put
   in place to effectively protect sensitive data. Therefore, this research
   aims to see if open source software has the potential to influence the
   cybersecurity market that is currently dominated by proprietary
   software. However, in order to accomplish such a task, certain
   conditions must be met. Such as understanding of the history behind open
   source software, the positive and negative influences it carries when
   dealing with this type of software. As well as compare and contrast
   current proprietary solutions with open source solutions, in order to
   grasp the potential economic impact of open source software leading
   onwards into the future. The ideal findings would be to outline the
   factors that are holding back open source software, and whether these
   factors are adjustable or correctable over time. Another aim is to
   highlight the potential financial benefit that comes from switching to
   or prioritizing OSS security solutions. As well as come up with any
   recommendations that would help aid businesses and organizations when it
   comes to obtaining suitable OSS security solutions.},

Abstract = {This paper presents COBRAPRO, a new open-source Doyle-Fuller-Newman
   (DFN) model software package with an integrated closed-loop parameter
   optimization routine. A key challenge in DFN model parameterization is
   that parameters measured from cell tear-down experiments cannot be
   directly used in simulations, and parameter identification is required
   to accurately reflect real-world battery dynamics However, existing
   open-source DFN codes lack the capability to perform parameter
   identification and operate in open-loop mode. COBRAPRO addresses this
   gap by implementing a systematic parameterization pipeline to accurately
   determine parameters using battery current and voltage data. Concepts
   from structural and practical identifiability are utilized to determine
   parameters that can be fixed to their experimental values and parameters
   that are suitable for optimization. In the parameter identification
   process, particle swarm optimization is used to minimize the error
   between experimental data and simulation results. Additionally, COBRAPRO
   incorporates a robust method to determine consistent initial conditions
   and utilizes a fast numerical solver for improved performance. We
   demonstrate COBRAPRO's parameter identification framework on reference
   performance test data obtained from LG INR21700-M50T cells. The
   parameterized model is validated against driving cycle data, showing
   good agreement between the experimental and simulation results.},

Month = {OCT 27},
Abstract = {Social collaborative coding is a popular trend in software development,
   and such platforms as GitHub provide rich social and technical
   functionalities for developers to collaborate on open source projects
   through multiple interactions. Developers often follow popular
   developers and projects for learning, technical selection, and
   collaboration. Thus, identifying popular developers and projects is very
   meaningful. In this paper, we propose a multiplex bipartite network
   ranking model, M-BiRank, to co-rank developers and projects using
   multiple developer-project interactions. Firstly, multiple
   developer-project interactions such as commit, issue, and watch are
   extracted and a multiplex developer-project bipartite network is
   constructed. Secondly, a random layer is selected from this multiplex
   bipartite network and initial ranking scores are calculated for
   developers and projects using BiRank. Finally, initial ranking scores
   diffuse to other layers and mutual reinforcement is taken into
   consideration to iteratively calculate ranking scores of developers and
   projects in different layers. Experiments on real-world GitHub dataset
   show that M-BiRank outperforms degree centrality, traditional single
   layer ranking methods, and multiplex ranking method.},

Abstract = {Free and open source software (FOSS) is considered by many, along with
   Wikipedia, the proof of an ongoing paradigm shift from
   hierarchically-managed and market-driven production of knowledge to
   heterarchical, collaborative and commons-based production styles. In
   such perspective, it has become common place to refer to FOSS as a
   manifestation of collective intelligence where deliverables and
   artefacts emerge by virtue of mere cooperation, with no need for
   supervising leadership. We show that this assumption is based on limited
   understanding of the software development process, and may lead to wrong
   conclusions as to the potential of peer production. The development of a
   less than trivial piece of software, irrespective of whether it be FOSS
   or proprietary, is a complex cooperative effort requiring the
   participation of many (often thousands of) individuals. A subset of the
   participants always play the role of leading system and subsystem
   designers, determining architecture and functionality; the rest of the
   people work ``underneath{''} them in a logical, functional sense. While
   new and powerful forces, including FOSS, are clearly at work in the
   post-industrial, networked economy, the currently ingenuous stage of
   research in the field of collective intelligence and networked
   cooperation must give way to a deeper level of consciousness, which
   requires an understanding of the software development process.},

   Python scripts that, without any adaptation, are able to perform
   background correction and colour correction on images using a
   ColourChecker chart. Further scripts identify objects, use an object of
   known size to calibrate for size, and extract the average colour of
   objects in RGB, Lab, and YUV colour spaces. We use two examples to
   demonstrate the use of these scripts. We show the consistency of these
   scripts by imaging in four different lighting conditions, and then we
   use two examples to show how the scripts can be used. In the first
   example, we estimate the lycopene content in tomatoes (Solanum
   lycopersicum) var. Tiny Tim using fruit images and an exponential model
   to predict lycopene content. We demonstrate that three different cameras
   (a DSLR camera and two separate mobile phones) are all able to model
   lycopene content. The models that predict lycopene or chlorophyll need
   to be adjusted depending on the camera used. In the second example, we
   estimate the chlorophyll content of basil (Ocimum basilicum) using leaf
   images and an exponential model to predict chlorophyll
   content.ConclusionA fast, cheap, non-destructive, and inexpensive method
   is provided for the determination of the size and colour of plant
   materials using a rig consisting of a lightbox, camera, and colour
   checker card and using free and open-source scripts that run in Python
   3.8. This method accurately predicted the lycopene content in tomato
   fruit and the chlorophyll content in basil leaves.},

   fields in photo-excited chemical systems},
Journal = {COMPUTER PHYSICS COMMUNICATIONS},

Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {We present an open-source software package, NIC-CAGE (Novel
   Implementation of Constrained Calculations for Automated Generation of
   Excitations), for predicting quantum optimal control fields in
   photo-excited chemical systems. Our approach utilizes newly derived
   analytic gradients for maximizing the transition probability (based on a
   norm-conserving Crank-Nicolson propagation scheme) for driving a system
   from a known initial quantum state to another desired state. The
   NIC-CAGE code is written in the MATLAB and Python programming
   environments to aid in its readability and general accessibility to both
   users and practitioners. Throughout this work, we provide several
   examples and outputs on a variety of different potentials, propagation
   times, and user-defined parameters to demonstrate the robustness of the
   NIC-CAGE software package. As such, the use of this predictive tool by
   both experimentalists and theorists could lead to further advances in
   both understanding and controlling the dynamics of photo-excited
   systems.

Abstract = {Continuous Integration (CI) has become a common practice in both
   industrial and open-source software development. While CI has evidently
   improved aspects of the software development process, errors during CI
   builds pose a threat to development efficiency. As an increasing amount
   of time goes into fixing such errors, failing builds can significantly
   impair the development process and become very costly. We perform an
   in-depth analysis of build failures in CI environments. Our approach
   links repository commits to data of corresponding CI builds. Using data
   from 14 open-source Java projects, we first identify 14 common error
   categories. Besides test failures, which are by far the most common
   error category (up to >80\% per project), we also identify noisy build
   data, e.g., induced by transient Git interaction errors, or general
   infrastructure flakiness. Second, we analyze which factors impact the
   build results, taking into account general process and specific CI
   metrics. Our results indicate that process metrics have a significant
   impact on the build outcome in 8 of the 14 projects on average, but the
   strongest influencing factor across all projects is overall stability in
   the recent build history. For 10 projects, more than 50\% (up to 80\%)
   of all failed builds follow a previous build failure. Moreover, the fail
   ratio of the last k=10 builds has a significant impact on build results
   for all projects in our dataset.},

Journal = {COMPUTER JOURNAL},
Year = {2024},
Month = {2024 DEC 28},
Abstract = {Given the complexity of software development and testing environments,
   the establishment of software reliability growth models (SRGMs) is
   diverse. To date, no SRGM can be applied and implemented in all software
   development and testing environments. Therefore, how to choose an
   appropriate SRGM for software reliability evaluation in the current
   software development and testing environment is an important practical
   issue. In this study, we proposed a weighted Grey relational analysis
   method to select the optimal SRGMs, including closed- and open-source
   SRGMs, as well as perfect and imperfect debugging SRGMs. To effectively
   validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we used 12 SRGMs, 11
   model evaluation criteria, and 2 successive versions of open-source
   software fault datasets. Results of this study indicated that the
   proposed method can select the optimal SRGM in the current software
   development and testing environment. To conclude, this study has
   important practical significance for actual software development and
   testing and makes important contributions to assisting developers or
   testers in selecting the optimal SRGM for software reliability
   assessment.},

Abstract = {The open-source software, called openCrys, is provided for the
   multiscale simulation of antisolvent and combined antisolvent-cooling
   crystallization. It simulates the macro- and micromixing scales, and the
   complete energy and population balance equations during crystal
   nucleation and growth. The model is based on the
   Reynolds-Averaged-Navier-Stokes equation, coupled with a
   three-environment presumed probability density function model, and the
   spatially varying population balance equation semidiscretized using a
   high resolution finite-volume method. openCrys is implemented in C++
   object oriented programming language using the open-source CFD package
   OpenFOAM. The software is used to compare the performance of dual
   impinging jet, coaxial, and radial crystallizers. It is shown that
   improving the micromixing does not necessarily result in a narrower
   crystal size distribution when temperature effects are taken into
   account. The complex interplay of crystallizer kinetics and momentum,
   mass, and heat transfer makes the selection of the best mixer for a
   particular application to be nonobvious, which motivates the development
   and application of high-fidelity multiscale simulations for the design
   of antisolvent crystallizers.},

Title = {The Cilialyzer - A freely available open-source software for the
   analysis of mucociliary activity in respiratory cells},
Journal = {COMPUTER METHODS AND PROGRAMS IN BIOMEDICINE},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {241},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Background and Objective: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare
   genetic disorder causing a defective ciliary structure, which
   predominantly leads to an impaired mucociliary clearance and associated
   airway disease. As there is currently no single diagnostic gold standard
   test, PCD is diagnosed by a combination of several methods comprising
   genetic testing and the examination of the ciliary structure and
   function. Among the approved diagnostic methods, only high-speed video
   microscopy (HSVM) allows to directly observe the ciliary motion and
   therefore, to directly assess ciliary function. In the present work, we
   present our recently developed freely available open-source software -
   termed ``Cilialyzer{''}, which has been specifically designed to support
   and facilitate the analysis of the mucociliary activity in respiratory
   epithelial cells captured by high-speed video microscopy.Methods: In its
   current state, the Cilialyzer software enables clinical PCD analysts to
   load, preprocess and replay recorded image sequences as well as videos
   with a feature-rich replaying module facilitating the commonly performed
   qualitative visual assessment of ciliary function (including the
   assessment of the ciliary beat pattern). The image processing methods
   made accessible through an intuitive user interface allow clinical
   specialists to comfortably compute the ciliary beating frequency (CBF),
   the activity map and the ``frequency correlation length{''} - an
   observable getting newly introduced. Furthermore, the Cilialyzer
   contains a simple-to-use particle tracking interface to determine the
   mucociliary transport speed.Results: Cilialyzer is fully written in the
   Python programming language and freely available under the terms of the
   MIT license. The proper functioning of the computational analysis
   methods constituting the Cilialyzer software is demonstrated by using
   simulated and representative sample data from clinical practice.
   Additionally, the software was used to analyze high-speed videos showing
   samples obtained from healthy controls and genetically confirmed PCD
   cases (DNAI1 and DNAH11 mutations) to show its clinical
   applicability.Conclusions: Cilialyzer serves as a useful clinical tool
   for PCD analysts and provides new quantitative information awaiting to
   be clinically evaluated using cohorts of PCD. As Cilialyzer is freely
   available under the terms of a permissive open-source license, it serves
   as a ground frame for further development of computational methods
   aiming at the quantification and automation of the analysis of
   mucociliary activity captured by HSVM.},

Abstract = {Software has become a vital factor in the fourth industrial revolution.
   Owing to the increase in demand for software products in various fields
   (big data, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, etc.), the
   software industry has expanded more than ever before. Therefore,
   software reliability has become very important, and efforts are being
   made to increase it. One of these efforts is the development of software
   reliability models (SRMs). SRMs have been studied for a long time as a
   model that predicts software reliability by using the number of software
   faults. Software failures can occur for several reasons, including
   independent software faults such as code errors and software hangs, as
   well as dependent cases where code errors lead to other software faults.
   Recently, due to the diversity of software operating environments,
   software faults are more likely to occur in a dependent manner, and, for
   this reason, they are likely to increase rapidly from the beginning and
   progress slowly to the maximum number thereafter. In addition, many
   large companies have focused on open-source software (OSS) development,
   and OSS is being developed by many users. In this study, we propose a
   new SRM that considers the number of finite faults and dependent faults,
   and examine the goodness-of-fit of a new SRM and other existing
   non-homogeneous Poisson process models based on the OSS datasets.
   Through numerical examples, the proposed model demonstrated a
   significantly better goodness-of-fit when compared to other existing
   models, and it also exhibited better results on the newly proposed
   integrated criteria.},

   learning is still considered as a complex task that only image analysis
   experts can master. With DeepMIB we address this problem and provide the

   optimization in systems biology and bioinformatics},
Journal = {BMC BIOINFORMATICS},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {15},
Month = {MAY 10},
Abstract = {Background: Optimization is the key to solving many problems in
   computational biology. Global optimization methods, which provide a
   robust methodology, and metaheuristics in particular have proven to be
   the most efficient methods for many applications. Despite their utility,
   there is a limited availability of metaheuristic tools.
   Results: We present MEIGO, an R and Matlab optimization toolbox (also
   available in Python via a wrapper of the R version), that implements
   metaheuristics capable of solving diverse problems arising in systems
   biology and bioinformatics. The toolbox includes the enhanced scatter
   search method (eSS) for continuous nonlinear programming (cNLP) and
   mixed-integer programming (MINLP) problems, and variable neighborhood
   search (VNS) for Integer Programming (IP) problems. Additionally, the R
   version includes BayesFit for parameter estimation by Bayesian
   inference. The eSS and VNS methods can be run on a single-thread or in
   parallel using a cooperative strategy. The code is supplied under GPLv3
   and is available at http://www.iim.csic.es/similar to
   gingproc/meigo.html. Documentation and examples are included. The R
   package has been submitted to BioConductor. We evaluate MEIGO against
   optimization benchmarks, and illustrate its applicability to a series of
   case studies in bioinformatics and systems biology where it outperforms
   other state-of-the-art methods.
   Conclusions: MEIGO provides a free, open-source platform for
   optimization that can be applied to multiple domains of systems biology
   and bioinformatics. It includes efficient state of the art
   metaheuristics, and its open and modular structure allows the addition
   of further methods.},

Abstract = {At present, a cloud computing is attracting attention as a network
   service to share the computing resources, i.e., networks, servers,
   storage, applications, and services. Also, many open source softwares
   are developed in all parts of the world, i.e, Firefox, Apache HTTP
   server, Linux, Android, etc. Especially, we focus on a cloud computing
   environment by using open source software such as Open Stack and
   Eucalyptus because of the unify management of data, low cost. In this
   paper, we propose a new approach to software reliability assessment
   based on the stochastic differential equations in order to consider the
   interesting aspect of the network status of cloud computing environment.
   Also, we analyze actual software fault-count data to show numerical
   examples of software reliability assessment considering the
   characteristics of network environment.},

   addressing a hardware solution integrating several open-source software
   projects into a cohesive structure. The platform, tentatively dubbed as
   a ``Mobile ISP{''} - or mISP is a natural extension on the established
   Wireless ISP concept with a practical bent towards wire-free deployment
   and gateway connectivity. In addition it justifies a split
   micro-architecture approach and depicts further usage schemas for the
   device afforded by virtue of the extensibility it offers.},

   allocation based on open source software tools},
Journal = {COMPUTERS \& GEOSCIENCES},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {52},
Pages = {21-33},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Combining emission inventory methods and geographic information systems
   (GIS) remains a key issue for environmental modelling and management
   purposes. This paper examines the development of a web GIS application
   as part of an emission inventory system that produces maps and files
   with spatial allocated emissions in a grid format. The study is not
   confined in the maps produced but also presents the features and
   capabilities of a web application that can be used by every user even
   without any prior knowledge of the GIS field. The development of the
   application was based on open source software tools such as MapServer
   for the GIS functions, PostgreSQL and PostGIS for the data management
   and HTML, PHP and JavaScript as programming languages. In addition,
   background processes are used in an innovative manner to handle the time
   consuming and computational costly procedures of the application.
   Furthermore, a web map service was created to provide maps to other
   clients such as the Google Maps API v3 that is used as part of the user
   interface. The output of the application includes maps in vector and
   raster format, maps with temporal resolution on daily and hourly basis,
   grid files that can be used by air quality management systems and grid
   files consistent with the European Monitoring and Evaluation Programme
   Grid. Although the system was developed and validated for the Republic
   of Cyprus covering a remarkable wide range of pollutant and emissions
   sources, it can be easily customized for use in other countries or
   smaller areas, as long as geospatial and activity data are available.

Abstract = {Open innovation is a paradigm that proposes that firms can and should
   use external as well as internal innovations/ideas. A popular example of
   open innovation has been open source software (OSS). The key issues
   facing organizational decision makers considering OSS strategies is, how
   does the firm create value for the customer while simultaneously
   extracting value for itself? However, the adoption of OSS as part of an
   open innovation strategy is a recent phenomenon and many unanswered
   questions remain. Taking the viewpoint of seven IS/IT decision makers in
   European firms, this paper reveals how decision makers considered
   aspects of value creation, capture, and networking in making decisions
   on adopting open source software. The findings reveal that while
   decision makers look to open innovation for value creation and capture,
   there is still a desire to remain self reliant, resulting in
   collaborative design (of external innovations) rather than collaborative
   decision making with value network partners in relation to how such
   innovations would help create and capture value within firms.},

Abstract = {Context: Individuals and organizations are increasingly adopting Open
   Source
   Software (OSS) for the benefits it provides. Although the OSS evaluation
   process and the information it requires are nowadays well known, users
   still have problems finding the right information and are not supported
   by any decision support system.
   Objective: The aim of this study is to bridge the gap between OSS
   adoption models, especially with the aim of supporting users in
   evaluating the OSS they are planning to select.
   Method: To reach this aim, we studied the processes and the information
   considered by the major OSS assessment models. Then we carried out a
   case study to identify which information can be automatically retrieved
   from the main OSS platforms, namely GitHub, SonarCloud, and
   StackExchange. Finally, we characterized the maturity of the projects
   available on these three platforms.
   Results: Projects available on the three platforms are commonly old,
   stable, and mature ones. Moreover, thanks to the API provided, we were
   able to extract most of the information not commonly accessible from the
   main website.
   Conclusions: Our results confirm that it is possible to develop a
   decision support system based on these three platforms, and that is also
   possible to evaluate both the quality and the maturity of the projects
   available there.},

   The analysis leads us to understand that these forms of solidarity
   inside groups are inseparably attached to the personal pursuit and daily
   needs of its participants.Communities generate and distribute capitals
   and resources in a retributive way, according to their contributions and
   inputs. Based on certain geeks / hackers identities linked to these
   computer enthusiasts, such spaces strengthen ties, relations of
   belonging and shared experiences. Along with it, ethical and political
   definitions are constructed in relation to software and different topics
   that make the local agenda of the collectives.
   The text opens the discussion on the forms of militancy that exist
   behind these groups and the construction of free software as a political
   object. We enroll thus the debate into a broader reflection on

Abstract = {FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) systems present interesting
   challenges in system evolution. On one hand, most FOSS systems are based
   on very fine-grained units of software deployment - called packages -
   which promote system evolution; on the other hand, FOSS systems are
   among the largest software systems known and require sophisticated
   static and dynamic conditions to be verified, in order to successfully
   deploy upgrades on users' machines. The slightest error in one of these
   conditions can turn a routine upgrade into a system administrator's
   nightmare.
   In this paper we introduce a model-based approach to support the upgrade
   of FOSS systems. The approach promotes the simulation of upgrades to
   predict failures before affecting the real system. Both fine-grained
   static aspects (e.g. configuration incoherences) and dynamic aspects
   (e.g. the execution of configuration scripts) are taken into account,
   improving over the state of the art of upgrade planners. The
   effectiveness of the approach is validated by instantiating the approach
   to widely-used FOSS distributions. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights

Abstract = {The observation of small bodies in the Space Environment is an ongoing
   important task in astronomy. While nowadays new objects are mostly
   detected in larger sky surveys, several follow-up observations are
   usually needed for each object to improve the accuracy of orbit
   determination. In particular objects orbiting close to Earth, so called
   Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) are of special concern as a small but not
   negligible fraction of them can have a non-zero impact probability with
   Earth. Additionally, the observation of manmade space debris and
   tracking of satellites falls in the same class measurements. Telescopes
   for these follow-up observations are mainly in a aperture class between
   1 m down to approximately 25 cm. These telescopes are often hosted by
   amateur observatories or dedicated companies like 6ROADS specialized on
   this type of observation. With upcoming new NEO search campaigns by very
   wide field of view telescopes, like the Vera C. Rubin Observatory,
   NASA's NEO surveyor space mission and ESA's Flyeye telescopes, the
   number of NEO discoveries will increase dramatically. This will require
   an increasing number of useful telescopes for follow-up observations at
   different geographical locations. While well-equipped amateur
   astronomers often host instruments which might be capable of creating
   useful measurements, both observation planning and scheduling, and also
   analysis are still a major challenge for many observers. In this work we
   present a fully robotic planning, scheduling and observation pipeline
   that extends the widely used open-source cross-platform software
   KStars/Ekos for Instrument Neutral Distributed Interface (INDI) devices.
   The method consists of algorithms which automatically select NEO
   candidates with priority according to ESA's Near-Earth Object
   Coordination Centre (NEOCC). It then analyses detectable objects (based
   on limiting magnitudes, geographical position, and time) with
   preliminary ephemeris from the Minor Planet Center (MPC). Optimal
   observing slots during the night are calculated and scheduled.
   Immediately before the measurement the accurate position of the minor
   body is recalculated and finally the images are taken. Besides the
   detailed description of all components, we will show a complete robotic
   hard- and software solution based on our methods.},

Journal = {ENEURO},
Year = {2021},

Abstract = {Forced swim test (FST) and tail suspension test (TST) are commonly used
   behavioral tests for screening antidepressant drugs with a high
   predictive validity. These tests have also proved useful to assess the
   non-motor symptoms in the animal models of movement disorders such as
   Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease. Manual analysis of FST and
   TST is a time-consuming exercise and has large observer-to-observer
   variability. Automation of behavioral analysis alleviates these
   concerns, but there are no easy-to-use open-source tools for such
   analysis. Here, we describe the development of Depression Behavior
   Scorer (DBscorer), an open-source program installable on Windows, with
   an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI), that helps in accurate
   quantification of immobility behavior in FST and TST from video
   analysis. Several calibration options allow customization of various
   parameters to suit the experimental requirements. Apart from the readout
   of time spent immobile, DBscorer also provides additional data and
   graphics of immobility/mobility states across time revealing the
   evolution of behavioral despair over the duration of the test and allows
   the analysis of additional parameters. Such comprehensive analysis
   allows a more nuanced understanding of the expression of behavioral
   despair in FST and TST. We believe that DBscorer would make analysis of
   behavior in FST and TST unbiased, automated and rapid, and hence prove
   to be helpful to the wider neuroscience community.},

Pages = {520-538},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) communities live and die with the continuous
   contributions of programmers who often participate without direct
   remuneration. An intriguing question is whether such sustained
   participation in OSS projects yields economic benefits to the
   participants. Moreover, as participants engage in OSS projects, they
   take on different roles and activities in the community. This raises
   additional questions of whether different forms of participation in OSS
   communities are associated with different economic rewards and, if so,
   in which contexts. In this paper, we draw upon theories of signaling and
   job matching to hypothesize that participants who possess ``proof{''} of
   their skills in OSS projects are financially rewarded for their
   activities in the labor market. More specifically, we distinguish
   between participation in OSS communities that is associated with a
   signaling value for unobserved productivity characteristics and an
   additional value that accrues to participants whose OSS roles and
   activities match those in their paid employment. Following a cohort of
   OSS programmers over a six-year period, we empirically examine the wages
   and OSS performance of participants in three of the foremost OSS
   projects operating within the Apache Software Foundation. Controlling
   for individual characteristics and other wage-related factors, our
   findings reveal that credentials earned through a merit-based ranking
   system are associated with as much as an 18\% increase in wages.
   Moreover, we find that participants who have OSS project management
   responsibilities receive additional financial rewards if their
   professional job is in IT management. These findings suggest that rank
   within an OSS meritocracy is a credible and precise signal of
   participants' productive capacity and that participants' roles and
   activities in an OSS community have additional financial value when
   aligned with their paid employment.},

Title = {Cross-status communication and project outcomes in OSS development A
   language style matching perspective},
Journal = {EMPIRICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {28},
Number = {3},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Context The success of an open source software (OSS) project requires
   effective communication among its members. Given that OSS projects often
   have established social status systems, such communication may happen
   between individuals of different statuses, particularly, elite
   developers with project management privileges and ordinary project
   contributors. They communicate with each other onmany essential
   activities, e.g., bug fixing, code review, etc., thus having profound
   influences on project outcomes.
   Objectives We seek to develop an understanding of cross-status
   communication from a perspective of language stylematching among
   developers of different status, and its relationships with an OSS
   project's outcomes in terms of productivity and quality.
   Method We approach the above research objectives with the language
   stylematching (LSM) tool, which measures the similarities of
   cross-status communication inmultiple language style features. We first
   dynamically identify elite developers having project administration
   privileges for each sampled project. Then, we capture the cross-status
   communication between elite and non-elite developers; and calculate the
   LSM features of these two groups of individuals. The LSM variables,
   together with project outcomes, were used to fit regression models to
   analyze potential relationships between cross-status communication's
   language matching and project outcomes.
   Results Using over 275,000 collected conversations, our analyses yield
   rich insights into cross-status communication in open source
   development. First, our results reveal that the elite and non-elite
   developers exhibit quite similar linguistic patterns in using certain
   categories of words. Second, we explore the relationships between
   linguistic similarity in cross-status communication and project
   outcomes. The regression results are generally negative, indicating
   there might be very limited significant relationships between
   cross-status communication's language matching and project outcomes,
   with a few exceptions.
   Limitations The study has several limitations. First, it considers
   projects hosted on GitHub only. Second, to ensure data availability, our
   sample is drawn from top projects, thus not representing all projects.
   Third, we only consider a limited number of linguistic features, and
   indicators for project outcomes.

Journal = {JOURNAL OF PERIODONTOLOGY},
Year = {2001},
Volume = {72},
Number = {5},
Pages = {672-678},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Background: One of the major concerns with the use of dental floss is
   the passage of the proximal contact, which might be influenced by the
   material characteristics of the floss. The aim of this study was to
   compare the gliding capacities of different flosses with major
   differences in structure and experimental behavior in vivo.
   Methods: In a clinical, single-blind, crossover study of 27 subjects,
   the forces necessary for passing all 14 proximal contacts between the
   first premolars were measured using 2 polytetrafluoroethylene
   (PTFE)-based flosses, 2 nylon-based flosses, and 1 nylon-based tape. The
   flosses were fixed in a special holder with strain gauges, which allowed
   registration of the maximum forces at insertion into and removal from
   the interdental area.
   Results: In most contacts, the PTFE flosses needed less force compared
   to the nylon flosses. The range between the flosses was higher in the
   mandible compared to the maxilla and increased from the mesially located
   contacts to the more distally located contacts. The nylon tape required
   higher forces at insertion for all maxillary contacts. All other flosses
   proved to be equivalent at these contacts.
   Conclusions: PTFE flosses are superior to nylon flosses in terms of
   passing stronger proximal contacts in both directions. Due to gliding
   differences between different types of floss, the selection of a floss
   has the potential of compensating intra- and interindividual variation
   in contact strengths.},

Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) Linux distributions are among the
   most complex modern software systems. They are made of thousands of
   components (software packages) evolving rapidly without centralized
   coordination. The upgrade of FOSS systems is managed by meta-installers,
   which solve package dependencies and conflicts and lead the system to a
   new system configuration by installing or removing packages. Current
   tools are able to predict a very limited set of upgrade faults before
   deployment, and this leaves a wide range of faults unpredicted. In this
   paper, we focus on faults that remain unpredicted, for example, missing
   packages, packages that are not properly installed, and missing
   services, with the aim of providing a solution for them. Specifically,
   in this paper, we propose a model-driven approach and supporting tools
   to prevent specific classes of system configuration faults before
   performing the real upgrade. Once the system configuration is
   represented as a model, the configuration model is evaluated by means of
   queries, each devoted to discover a specific class of faults. The
   approach is intrinsically extensible so that user communities can add
   new queries when new classes of faults are identified. The approach has
   been validated by executing the fault detector on configuration models
   in which faults have been intentionally injected and by analyzing
   produced results. Copyright (c) 2015 John Wiley \& Sons, Ltd.},

Abstract = {This work analyzes the implementation of a continuous method of
   structural topology optimization (STO) using open-source software for
   all stages of the topology optimization problem: modeling, sensitivity

   components: numerical analysis using the Finite Element Method (FEM),
   sensitivity analysis using an Adjoint method and an optimization solver.
   In order to allow the automated numerical solution of Partial
   Differential Equations (PDEs) and perform a sensitivity analysis, FEniCS
   and Dolfin Adjoint software are used as tools, which are open-source
   code. For the optimization process, Ipopt (Interior Point OPTimizer) is
   used, which is a software package for nonlinear optimization scale
   designed to find (local) solutions of mathematical optimization
   problems. The topological optimization method used is based on the
   SIMP-Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization interpolation. The
   considered problem is the minimization of compliance/maximization of
   stiffness, considering the examples of recurrent structures in the
   literature in 2D and 3D. A density filtering algorithm based on
   Helmholtz formulation is used. The complete code involves 51 lines of
   programming and is presented and commented in detail in this article.},

   However, research on the structural stability of the evolving developer

   economical modular small-world structure during its evolution. The
   maintenance of the structure is related to a cohesive core, which is
   composed of two types of nodes (i.e., hubs and connectors). The hubs
   organize noncore nodes to form modules, while connectors facilitate the
   formation of inter-module connections. The overall results highlight the
   important role of core developers in the sustainable development of OSS
   communities and may provide a reference for community initiators to

Journal = {BMC BIOINFORMATICS},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {15},
Month = {MAR 26},
Abstract = {Background: 20 years of improved technology and growing sequences now
   renders residue-residue contact constraints in large protein families
   through correlated mutations accurate enough to drive de novo
   predictions of protein three-dimensional structure. The method EVfold
   broke new ground using mean-field Direct Coupling Analysis
   (EVfold-mfDCA); the method PSICOV applied a related concept by
   estimating a sparse inverse covariance matrix. Both methods
   (EVfold-mfDCA and PSICOV) are publicly available, but both require too
   much CPU time for interactive applications. On top, EVfold-mfDCA depends
   on proprietary software.
   Results: Here, we present FreeContact, a fast, open source
   implementation of EVfold-mfDCA and PSICOV. On a test set of 140
   proteins, FreeContact was almost eight times faster than PSICOV without
   decreasing prediction performance. The EVfold-mfDCA implementation of
   FreeContact was over 220 times faster than PSICOV with negligible
   performance decrease. EVfold-mfDCA was unavailable for testing due to
   its dependency on proprietary software. FreeContact is implemented as
   the free C++ library ``libfreecontact{''}, complete with command line
   tool ``freecontact{''}, as well as Perl and Python modules. All
   components are available as Debian packages. FreeContact supports the
   BioXSD format for interoperability.
   Conclusions: FreeContact provides the opportunity to compute reliable
   contact predictions in any environment (desktop or cloud).},

Abstract = {Using Open Source Software (OSS) in undergraduate teaching in
   universities is now commonplace. Students use OSS applications and
   systems in their courses on programming, operating systems, DBMS. web
   development to name but a few. Studying OSS projects from both a product
   and a process view also forms part of the software engineering
   curriculum at various universities. Many students have taken part in OSS
   projects as well as developers.
   At the University of Lincoln, under the Undergraduate Research
   Opportunities Scheme (UROS), undergraduate student researchers have the
   chance to work over the summer embedded within an existing research
   centre on a UROS project. Here two such projects within the Centre for
   Research in Open Source Software (CROSS) are described: Collaborative
   Development for the XO Laptop (CODEX) and Software Modularity in Open
   Source Software (SoMOSS). The CODEX project focused on creating
   resources to support students undertaking software application
   development for the XO laptop, and the SoMOSS project focused on
   architectural studies of OSS instant messaging software.
   Both projects achieved successful research outcomes; more importantly,
   both student researchers benefited directly from the encouragement and
   concrete assistance that they received through interaction with the
   wider OSS research community. Both projects are ongoing and present
   further research opportunities for students.},

Abstract = {This paper examines the emergence and evolution of user innovations in
   Open Source Software (OSS) development, with focus on usability
   innovations. Existing literature on user innovation and usability is
   reviewed, after which usability innovation is empirically explored in
   OSS development. The interpretive ease study shows that usability
   innovations emerge and evolve in OSS development. They emerge after a
   user recognizes a need, after which she invents a fix to meet the need,
   thereafter needing a developer to realize the fix in the OSS.
   Afterwards, the user experiments with the solution and may provide
   feedback, which again may lead to the developer adjusting the OSS
   accordingly. The process is characterized as a collaborative negotiation
   process among the users and developers. The results also reveal that the
   usability innovations may be need, opportunity or creativity based, and
   connected to improving efficiency, effectiveness or satisfaction.
   Implications both for theory and practice are discussed.},

Title = {Knowledge management in OSS communities: Relationship between dense and

Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INFORMATION MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {38},
Number = {1},
Pages = {167-174},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Some authors in the literature have addressed knowledge transfer via
   weak ties between organization's units which are themselves strongly
   tied inside (e.g. Hansen, 1999). Some others have investigated knowledge
   management among open-source-software (OSS) developers and discussed
   factors influencing knowledge transfer within development teams (e.g.
   Joshi and Sarker, 2006). In the domain of open source software (OSS)
   communities, more companies are now attempting to establish
   relationships to benefit from these potential value-creating
   communities; and project managers could in fact target different goals
   within software development teams including knowledge transfer within
   and between teams. We step forward to distinguish knowledge transfer
   within groups as opposed to knowledge transfer between groups; where
   relevant projects are bundled into separate strongly intra-connected
   groups. In knowledge management literature there is a trade-off between
   sparse network structures (Burt, 2000, 2002) versus dense network
   structures (Walker et al., 1997; Coleman, 1988). It is argued that the
   former facilitates the diffusion and generation of ideas among groups,
   while the latter affects the implementation of idea within each dense
   group. To our best knowledge, there has been no study to investigate the
   relationship between dense and sparse network structures. We propose
   that knowledge transfer within dense groups has a positive influence on
   knowledge transfer between sparse groups, in that intragroup density,
   group size, developers centrality and betweenness could impact
   intergroup coupling. To prove our hypothesis, we use a complex network
   of open source software (OSS) as the domain of interest, where
   developers represent nodes and two developers contributing to a project
   task represent a network tie. Developers contributing to tasks in groups
   other than their own can explore novel ideas via sharing knowledge,
   whereas developers contributing to tasks inside groups exploit ideas to
   improve those projects. We investigate the idea both analytically and
   empirically within 4 months, 8 months and 1 year lagged time, and
   finally show that intragroup density has a positive whereas developers'
   centrality has a negative influence on intergroup coupling.},

Abstract = {We present the Python Red Pitaya Lockbox (PyRPL), an open source
   software package that allows the implementation of automatic digital
   feedback controllers for quantum optics experiments on commercially
   available, affordable Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) boards. Our
   software implements the digital generation of various types of error
   signals, from an analog input through the application of loop filters of
   high complexity and real-time gain adjustment for multiple analog output
   signals, including different algorithms for resonance search, lock
   acquisition sequences, and in-loop gain optimization. Furthermore, all
   necessary diagnostic instruments, such as an oscilloscope, a network
   analyzer, and a spectrum analyzer, are integrated into our software.
   Apart from providing a quickly scalable, automatic feedback controller,
   the lock performance that can be achieved by using PyRPL with imperfect
   equipment, such as piezoelectric transducers and noisy amplifiers, is
   better than the one achievable with standard analog controllers due to
   the higher complexity of implementable filters and possibilities of
   nonlinear operations in the FPGA. This drastically reduces the cost of
   added complexity when introducing additional feedback loops to an
   experiment. The open-source character also distinguishes PyRPL from
   commercial solutions, as it allows users to customize functionalities at
   various levels, ranging from the easy integration of PyRPL-based
   feedback controllers into existing setups to the modification of the
   FPGA functionality. A community of developers provides fast and
   efficient implementation and testing of software modifications.},

Abstract = {Increasing adoption of Open Source Software (OSS) requires a change in
   the organizational culture and reshaping IT decision-makers mindset.
   Adopting OSS software components introduces some risks that can affect
   the adopter organization's business goals, therefore they need to be
   considered. To assess these risks, it is required to understand the
   socio-technical structures that interrelate the stakeholders in the OSS
   ecosystem, and how these structures may propagate the potential risks to
   them. In this paper, we study the connection between OSS adoption risks
   and OSS adopter organizations' business goals. We propose a model-based
   approach and analysis framework that combines two existing frameworks:
   the i{*} framework to model and reason about business goals, and the
   RiskML notation to represent and analyse OSS adoption risks. We
   illustrate our approach with data drawn from an industrial partner
   organization in a joint EU project.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is a model of computer software development
   where the source code is available for programmers to view, read, modify
   and re-distribute without the property right restrictions of proprietary
   software. OSS has existed as a model for developing computer
   applications and software since the 1950s. However, OSS has only found
   its way into the public arena within the past decade due to some major
   projects gaining significant market share from commercial developers
   such as Microsoft. Research in the area of OSS has become more extensive
   in recent years and has examined areas such as motivation of programmers
   as well as the benefits of OSS. However, literature focusing on the
   actual implementation of OSS is more limited with only Fitzgerald and
   Kenny {[}(2004). Developing an information infrastructure with Open
   Source Software. IEEE Software, 50-55] providing any substantial
   analysis of how it might be achieved.
   In this paper the focus is on OSS use and implementation within the UK
   public sector. This sector has a history of resource wastage and
   underperforming information systems. The underpinning issues of
   motivation and benefits to organisations will be addressed along with
   the difficulties that the UK Government faces in adopting an OSS
   strategy. Section 2 examines the existing literature in the area and
   explores why OSS should be adopted and implemented by the public sector
   in the UK. Section 3 considers the research approach taken and the
   results obtained from considering the implementation of OSS in eight
   government organisations. Section 4 concludes with a discussion and some
   implications for those organisations in the public sector who might wish
   to take this approach. (c) 2005 Published by Elsevier Ltd.},

Journal = {MOLECULAR ECOLOGY RESOURCES},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {22},

Abstract = {The accuracy and precision of fungal molecular identification and
   classification are challenging, particularly in environmental
   metabarcoding approaches as these often trade accuracy for efficiency
   given the large data volumes at hand. In most ecological studies, only a
   single similarity cutoff value is used for sequence identification. This
   is not sufficient since the most commonly used DNA markers are known to
   vary widely in terms of inter- and intraspecific variability. We address
   this problem by presenting a new tool, dnabarcoder, to predict local
   similarity cutoffs and measure the resolving powers of a biomarker for
   sequence identification for different clades of fungi. It was shown that
   the predicted similarity cutoffs varied significantly between the clades
   of a recently released ITS DNA barcode data set from the CBS culture
   collection of the Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute. When
   classifying a large public fungal ITS data set-the UNITE
   database-against the barcode data set, the local similarity cutoffs
   assigned fewer sequences than the traditional cutoffs used in
   metabarcoding studies. However, the obtained accuracy and precision were
   significantly improved. Our study showed that it might be better to
   extract the ITS region from the ITS barcodes to optimize taxonomic
   assignment accuracy. Furthermore, 15.3, 25.6, and 26.3\% of the fungal
   species of the barcode data set were indistinguishable by full-length
   ITS, ITS1, and ITS2, respectively. Except for these indistinguishable
   species, the resolving powers of full-length ITS, ITS1, and ITS2
   sequences were similar at the species level. Nevertheless, the complete
   ITS region had a better resolving power at higher taxonomic levels.},

Journal = {MEASUREMENT SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {24},

Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {goGPS is a free and open source satellite positioning software package
   aiming to provide a collaborative platform for research and teaching
   purposes. It was first published in 2009 and since then several related
   projects are on-going. Its objective is the investigation of strategies
   for enhancing the accuracy of low-cost single-frequency GPS receivers,
   mainly by relative positioning with respect to a base station and by a
   tailored extended Kalman filter working directly on code and phase
   observations. In this paper, the positioning algorithms implemented in
   goGPS are presented, emphasizing the modularity of the software design;
   two specific strategies to support the navigation with low-cost
   receivers are also proposed and discussed, namely an empirical
   observation weighting function calibrated on the receiver
   signal-to-noise ratio and the inclusion of height information from a
   digital terrain model as an additional observation in the Kalman filter.
   The former is crucial when working with high-sensitivity receivers,
   while the latter can significantly improve the positioning in the
   vertical direction. The overall goGPS positioning accuracy is assessed
   by comparison with a dual-frequency receiver and with the positioning
   computed by a standard low-cost receiver. The benefits of the calibrated
   weighting function and the digital terrain model are investigated by an
   experiment in a dense urban environment. It comes out that the use of
   goGPS and low-cost receivers leads to results comparable with those
   obtained by higher level receivers; goGPS has good performances also in
   a dense urban environment, where its additional features play an
   important role.},

Abstract = {Modeling and simulation play a key role in analyzing the complex
   electrochemical behavior of lithiumion batteries. We present the
   development of a thermodynamic and kinetic modeling framework for
   intercalation electrochemistry within the open-source software Cantera.
   Instead of using equilibrium potentials and single-step Butler-Volmer
   kinetics, Cantera is based on molar thermodynamic data and mass-action
   kinetics, providing a physically-based and flexible means for complex
   reaction pathways. Herein, we introduce a new thermodynamic class for
   intercalation materials into the open-source software. We discuss the
   derivation of molar thermodynamic data from experimental half-cell
   potentials, and provide practical guidelines. We then demonstrate the
   new class using a single-particle model of a lithium cobalt
   oxide/graphite lithium-ion cell, implemented in MATLAB. With the present
   extensions, Cantera provides a platform for the lithium-ion battery
   modeling community both for consistent thermodynamic and kinetic models
   and for exchanging the required thermodynamic and kinetic parameters. We

Abstract = {Natural products (or specialized metabolites) are historically the main
   source of new drugs. However, the current drug discovery pipelines
   require miniaturization and speeds that are incompatible with
   traditional natural product research methods, especially in the early
   stages of the research. This article introduces the NP3 MS Workflow, a
   robust open-source software system for liquid chromatography-tandem mass
   spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) untargeted metabolomic data processing and
   analysis, designed to rank bioactive natural products directly from
   complex mixtures of compounds, such as bioactive biota samples. NP3 MS
   Workflow allows minimal user intervention as well as customization of
   each step of LC-MS/MS data processing, with diagnostic statistics to
   allow interpretation and optimization of LC-MS/MS data processing by the
   user. NP3 MS Workflow adds improved computing of the MS2 spectra in an
   LC-MS/MS data set and provides tools for automatic {[}M + H](+) ion
   deconvolution using fragmentation rules; chemical structural annotation
   against MS2 databases; and relative quantification of the precursor ions
   for bioactivity correlation scoring. The software will be presented with
   case studies and comparisons with equivalent tools currently available.
   NP3 MS Workflow shows a robust and useful approach to select bioactive
   natural products from complex mixtures, improving the set of tools
   available for untargeted metabolomics. It can be easily integrated into
   natural product-based drug-discovery pipelines and to other fields of
   research at the interface of chemistry and biology.},

Abstract = {Beyond the functional requirements of a system, software maintainability
   is essential for project success. While there exists a large knowledge
   base of software maintainability, this knowledge is rarely used in open
   source software due to the large number of developers and inefficiency
   in identifying quality issues. To effectively utilize the current
   knowledge base in practice requires a deeper understanding of how
   problems associated with the different qualities arise and change over
   time. In this paper, we sample over 6000 real bugs found from several
   Mozilla products to examine how maintainability is expressed with
   subgroups of repairability and modifiability. Furthermore, we manually
   study how these qualities evolve as the products mature, what the root
   causes of the bugs are for each quality and the impact and dependency of
   each quality. Our results inform which areas should be focused on to
   ensure maintainability at different stages of the development and
   maintenance process.},

Abstract = {An open source implementation of a previously published integrated
   testing strategy (ITS) for skin sensitization using a Bayesian network
   has been developed using R, a free and open source statistical computing
   language. The ITS model provides probabilistic predictions of skin
   sensitization potency based on in silico and in vitro information as
   well as skin penetration characteristics from a published
   bioavailability model (Kasting et al., 2008). The structure of the
   Bayesian network was designed to be consistent with the adverse outcome
   pathway published by the OECD (Jaworska et al., 2011, 2013). In this
   paper, the previously published data set (Jaworska et al., 2013) is
   improved by two data corrections and a modified application of the
   Kasting model. The new data set implemented in the original commercial
   software package and the new R version produced consistent results. The
   data and a fully documented version of the code are publicly available

   introduction and fix, but not discovery, and (3) possible technical and
   open collaboration solutions to the data availability limitations of
   current databases. These results were part of a larger mixed-method

Title = {From Aristotle to Ringelmann: a large-scale analysis of team
   productivity and coordination in Open Source Software projects},
Journal = {EMPIRICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {21},
Number = {2},
Pages = {642-683},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Complex software development projects rely on the contribution of teams
   of developers, who are required to collaborate and coordinate their
   efforts. The productivity of such development teams, i.e., how their
   size is related to the produced output, is an important consideration
   for project and schedule management as well as for cost estimation. The
   majority of studies in empirical software engineering suggest that - due
   to coordination overhead - teams of collaborating developers become less
   productive as they grow in size. This phenomenon is commonly paraphrased
   as Brooks' law of software project management, which states that
   ``adding manpower to a software project makes it later{''}. Outside
   software engineering, the non-additive scaling of productivity in teams
   is often referred to as the Ringelmann effect, which is studied
   extensively in social psychology and organizational theory. Conversely,
   a recent study suggested that in Open Source Software (OSS) projects,
   the productivity of developers increases as the team grows in size.
   Attributing it to collective synergetic effects, this surprising finding
   was linked to the Aristotelian quote that ``the whole is more than the
   sum of its parts{''}. Using a data set of 58 OSS projects with more than
   580,000 commits contributed by more than 30,000 developers, in this
   article we provide a large-scale analysis of the relation between size
   and productivity of software development teams. Our findings confirm the
   negative relation between team size and productivity previously
   suggested by empirical software engineering research, thus providing
   quantitative evidence for the presence of a strong Ringelmann effect.
   Using fine-grained data on the association between developers and source
   code files, we investigate possible explanations for the observed
   relations between team size and productivity. In particular, we take a
   network perspective on developer-code associations in software
   development teams and show that the magnitude of the decrease in
   productivity is likely to be related to the growth dynamics of
   co-editing networks which can be interpreted as a first-order
   approximation of coordination requirements.},

Journal = {QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF SPEECH},
Year = {2007},
Volume = {93},
Number = {2},
Pages = {211-235},

Abstract = {This essay investigates the rhetorical practices of socio-technical
   deliberation about free and open source (FIOS) software, providing
   support for the idea that a public sphere is a socio-technical ensemble
   that is discursive and fluid, yet tangible and organized because it is
   enacted by both humans and non-humans. In keeping with the empirical
   shift manifest in recent public sphere scholarship and Bruno Latour's
   idea that socio-technical deliberation is characterized by the
   inscription of non-humans, I describe the rhetorical manners in which
   volunteer citizens define and mobilize a mundane artifact-a web site- in
   a deliberation over the value of FIOS technologies for their
   government-funded project. Through inscription of the web site as a
   rhetorical resource and as the embodiment of their disposition toward
   computer technologies, the volunteers formed and expressed competing
   understandings of the role of FIOS technologies in sustaining a public
   sphere. I argue that these competing views are consequential, for they
   link technical artifacts and political agents in practice, by way of
   aspirations, obligations, and forms of authority. Furthermore, by
   claiming a form of agency for technologies in the public sphere, the
   proponents of F10S technologies are inviting scholars of the public
   sphere to question the status assigned to technical artifacts in their
   investigations and theories of the public sphere.},

Title = {Legal aspects of ownership in modified open source software and its
   impact on Russian software import substitution policy},
Journal = {COMPUTER LAW \& SECURITY REVIEW},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {33},
Number = {2},
Pages = {193-210},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {In my previous publication, I tried to show how personal data
   legislation might be used for achieving the purposes of national
   sovereignty(1). In this paper, I will demonstrate how open source
   software may be used for achieving similar purposes. However, the
   interplay between local copyright law, public procurement law and open
   source community norms creates many issues relating to the legal status
   and ownership in modified software, based on open source. This is
   especially so in the case of so-called copyleft open source licenses,
   where a collision occurs between copyright, as an absolute right
   enforceable against the world, and the copyleft provisions of license
   agreements, which may be treated as ``rights in personam{''} enforceable
   only against the licensee. The exclusive right to derivative software as
   an independent object of copyright, may come into conflict with
   restrictions inherited from incoming copyleft licenses. This paper
   provides an overview and analysis of such problems faced by Russian
   software developers, attempting to comply with Russian import
   substitution provisions, by using open source components. Although it is
   based on Russian law, it may be applicable to other jurisdictions, since
   general aspects of copyright law and its interaction with private
   international law and contract law drive it. The paper concludes that
   the developer of software, containing code licensed under GEL or other
   copyleft provisions, receives full exclusive right to the derivative
   software and can commercialize it as he sees appropriate, subject only
   to possible claims of breach of contract rather than copyright
   infringement. This opens wide perspectives for using open source
   components regardless of the type of license used as bricks for building
   a de-globalized economy and society based on principles of information
   sovereignty. (C) 2016 Alexander Savelyev. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All

Abstract = {The assessment of oxygen uptake (VO2) kinetics is a valuable
   non-invasive way to evaluate cardiorespiratory and metabolic response to
   exercise. The aim of the study was to develop, describe and evaluate an
   online VO2 fitting tool (VO(2)FITTING) for dynamically editing,
   processing, filtering and modelling VO2 responses to exercise.
   VO(2)FITTING was developed in Shiny, a web application framework for R
   language. Validation VO2 datasets with both noisy and non-noisy data
   were developed and applied to widely-used models (n = 7) for describing
   different intensity transitions to verify concurrent validity.
   Subsequently, we then conducted an experiment with age-group swimmers as
   an example, illustrating how VO(2)FITTING can be used to model VO2
   kinetics. Perfect fits were observed, and parameter estimates perfectly
   matched the known inputted values for all available models (standard
   error = 0; p < 0.001). The VO(2)FITTING is a valid, free and open-source
   software for characterizing VO2 kinetics in exercise, which was
   developed to help the research and performance analysis communities.},

Title = {Measuring the Shape and Size of Activated Sludge Particles Immobilized
   in Agar with an Open Source Software Pipeline},
Journal = {JOVE-JOURNAL OF VISUALIZED EXPERIMENTS},
Year = {2019},
Number = {143},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Experimental bioreactors, such as those treating wastewater, contain
   particles whose size and shape are important parameters. For example,
   the size and shape of activated sludge flocs can indicate the conditions
   at the microscale, and also directly affect how well the sludge settles
   in a clarifier.
   Particle size and shape are both misleadingly `simple' measurements.
   Many subtle issues, often unaddressed in informal protocols, can arise
   when sampling, imaging, and analyzing particles. Sampling methods may be
   biased or not provide enough statistical power. The samples themselves
   may be poorly preserved or undergo alteration during immobilization.
   Images may not be of sufficient quality; overlapping particles, depth of
   field, magnification level, and various noise can all produce poor
   results. Poorly specified analysis can introduce bias, such as that
   produced by manual image thresholding and segmentation.
   Affordability and throughput are desirable alongside reproducibility. An
   affordable, high throughput method can enable more frequent particle
   measurement, producing many images containing thousands of particles. A
   method that uses inexpensive reagents, a common dissecting microscope,
   and freely-available open source analysis software allows repeatable,
   accessible, reproducible, and partially-automated experimental results.
   Further, the product of such a method can be well-formatted,
   well-defined, and easily understood by data analysis software, easing
   both within-lab analyses and data sharing between labs.
   We present a protocol that details the steps needed to produce such a
   product, including: sampling, sample preparation and immobilization in
   agar, digital image acquisition, digital image analysis, and examples of
   experiment-specific figure generation from the analysis results. We have
   also included an open-source data analysis pipeline to support this
   protocol.},

Volume = {7},

Abstract = {This paper presents the preliminary results of a geomorphological survey
   of the Olvera area (Cadiz province, Betic Ranges, Spain) and the use of
   the Geographic Information System (GIS) Open Source (OS) software plus
   Database Management System (DBMS) for making available and distributing
   the landslide data over the Web. In the geomorphologic survey, different
   landforms have been identified in the area, including structural,
   anthropogenic, fluvial, karst, and slope forms. In particular, the
   majority of the slope forms are complex (from topple to rotational
   slides and falls), but there are also minor forms like debris flows and
   mudslides. To manage geomorphological data, an Open Source GIS was used,
   which contained the following components: QuantumGIS, System for
   Automated Geoscientific Analyses (SAGA), GIS and Geographic Resources
   Analysis Support System (GRASS), GIS for Digital Elevation Model (DEM)
   generation. A key aim was to make the project-derived data available
   over the Web. This was achieved using MapServer which allows for the
   representation of the derived geospatial data with pMapper providing the
   graphical Web interface. Our study highlights the process dynamics of
   run-off erosion in Olvera derived through the use of advanced
   computer-based mapping tools. The resulting map products and
   interpretations are available via the Internet. To date, derivative maps
   have been produced to improve maintenance of roads and transport and of
   the construction of new infrastructure.},

Abstract = {For any software project, most experts regard the maintenance phase as
   the most effort and cost intensive of all phases in the software
   development life cycle. This is due to the high maintenance effort,
   time, and resources needed to effectively address issues during software
   maintenance (maintenance activities). Mismanagement of these efforts can
   lead to the degradation of software maintainability. Understanding the
   assessment of the related software processes can help sustain or improve
   maintainability during these maintenance activities. Recent studies have
   shown that current software process assessments are expensive, generic,
   and complex, especially for smaller organizations. In this paper, we
   investigate an alternative software process assessment approach
   performed by analyzing fine-grained processes (micro processes) of
   maintenance activities. This approach assesses maintenance efforts based
   on micro processes in relation to their impact on source code. The
   approach derives maintenance effort from the complexity and duration of
   micro processes and uses proposed metrics based on program slicing to
   measure change impact. In this paper, we investigate an alternative
   software process assessment approach by analysing fine-grained processes
   (micro processes) of maintenance activities. At statistically
   significant levels, results suggest that the level of the maintenance
   efforts correlates with its impact on source code. Copyright (c) 2012

Abstract = {Free and open source software has transformed from what has been
   characterized as a resistance movement against proprietary software to
   become a commercially viable form of software development, integrated in
   various forms with proprietary software business. In this paper we
   explain this development as a dependence on historical formations,
   shaped by different ways of justifying the use of open source during
   different periods of time. These formations are described as
   arrangements of different justificatory logics within a certain time
   frame or a certain group of actors motivating the use of free and open
   source software by referring to different potentialities. The
   justificatory arrangements change over time, and tracing these changes
   makes it easier to understand how the cultural, economic and social
   practices of open source movements are currently being absorbed and
   adopted in a commercial context.},

   an evolutionary algorithm as an optimizer and supports parallel

   tidally-influenced urban drainage system, the swmm\_mpc control policies
   for two storage units achieved its objectives of 1) practically
   eliminating flooding and 2) maintaining the water level at the storage
   units close to a target level. Although the current swmm\_mpc workflow
   was feasible for a simple model using a desktop PC, a high-performance
   computer or cloud-based computer with more computational cores would
   likely be needed for most real-world models.},

Year = {2021},
Volume = {26},

Pages = {509-534},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Crowdsourcing system requirements enables project managers to elicit
   feedback from a broader range of stakeholders. The advantages of
   crowdsourcing include a higher volume of requirements reflecting a more
   comprehensive array of use cases and a more engaged and committed user
   base. Researchers cite the inability of project teams to effectively
   manage an increasing volume of system requirements as a possible
   drawback. This paper analyzes a data set consisting of project
   management artifacts from 562 open-source software (OSS) projects to
   determine how OSS project performance varies as the share of
   crowdsourced requirements increases using six measures of effectiveness:
   requirement close-out time, requirement response time, average comment
   activity, the average number of requirements per crowd member, the
   average retention time for crowd members, and the total volume of
   requirements. Additionally, the models measure how the impact of
   increasing the share of crowdsourced requirements changes with
   stakeholder network structure. The analysis shows that stakeholder
   network structure impacts OSS performance outcomes and that the effect
   changes with the share of crowdsourced requirements. OSS projects with
   more concentrated stakeholder networks perform the best. The results
   indicate that requirements crowdsourcing faces diminishing marginal
   returns. OSS projects that crowdsource more than 70\% of their
   requirements benefit more from implementing processes to organize and
   prioritize existing requirements than from incentivizing the crowd to
   generate additional requirements. Analysis in the paper also suggests
   that OSS projects could benefit from employing CrowdRE techniques and
   assigning dedicated community managers to more effectively channel input
   from the crowd.},

Abstract = {The high turnover of developers in the Open-Source Software (OSS)
   systems is due to the lack of restriction on a developer?s involvement
   and contributions. The primary developers start and administer an OSS
   project. However, they do not manage those who contribute. The
   literature shows that 80\% of issues are resolved by 20\% of developers
   when developing an OSS. Therefore, identifying influential developer
   communities is quite necessary for OSS stakeholders to reduce the
   efforts required to solve the issue through releases and predict
   quality. The purpose of this proposed empirical study is to explore
   influential communities by analyzing the relationship between their
   members as an OSS evolves and its impact on software quality. We
   performed several experiments with releases of three widely used OSS,
   namely ?BIGDL,? ?INCUBATOR-MXNET? and ?RECOMMENDERS.? The major
   implications of the proposed study include; 1) The community development
   structure is not centralized and controlled, 2) Influential communities
   were observed in early releases of an OSS, 3) There is no guarantee of
   an influential community in the consecutive releases, 4) Notable
   developers are varied through the releases, and 5) The presence of
   influential communities in subsequent releases could lead to the
   maturity of an OSS.},

Abstract = {The active control of stormwater systems is a potential solution to
   increased street flooding in low-lying, low-relief coastal cities due to
   climate change and accompanying sea level rise. Model predictive control
   (MPC) has been shown to be a successful control strategy generally and
   as well as for managing urban drainage specifically. This research
   describes and demonstrates the implementation of MPC for urban drainage
   systems using open source software (Python and The United States
   Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Storm Water Management Model
   (SWMM5). The system was demonstrated using a simplified use case in
   which an actively-controlled outlet of a detention pond is simulated.
   The control of the pond's outlet influences the flood risk of a
   downstream node. For each step in the SWMM5 model, a series of policies
   for controlling the outlet are evaluated. The best policy is then
   selected using an evolutionary algorithm. The policies are evaluated
   against an objective function that penalizes primarily flooding and
   secondarily deviation of the detention pond level from a target level.
   Freely available Python libraries provide the key functionality for the
   MPC workflow: step-by-step running of the SWMM5 simulation, evolutionary
   algorithm implementation, and leveraging parallel computing. For
   perspective, the MPC results were compared to results from a rule-based
   approach and a scenario with no active control. The MPC approach
   produced a control policy that largely eliminated flooding (unlike the
   scenario with no active control) and maintained the detention pond's
   water level closer to a target level (unlike the rule-based approach).},

Abstract = {In this article, a novel approach to find out optimum tilt angle using
   generated and predicted solar data is presented. Here the generated
   electricity outputs data of the photovoltaics (PVs), installed on the
   building rooftops at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee,
   India, have been obtained from the Institute for the past four years
   (2015-18). Simultaneously, the solar PV output data have been predicted
   using open source software application, geographic information system
   (GIS), Perl, global horizontal irradiance (GHI), remote sensing, and
   cloud computing. The satellite-derived GHI has been obtained from the
   database developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL),
   United States, and local GHI using a pyranometer to validate the
   results. In the presented work, tilted GHI has been estimated using
   modified tilt angle algorithm implemented using Perl in a cloud
   environment. Further, the usable rooftop area has been digitized on
   high-resolution WorldView-3 image and calculated using QGIS. In this
   study, the validation of an optimum tilt angle has been performed by the
   comparison of the output from the installed solar plant to the predicted
   solar potential. The processing of optimum tilt angle obtained (19.86
   degrees) at IIT Roorkee has been performed using XenCenter server. This
   helped in processing the computation-intensive tilted GHI at various
   tilt angles. This approach also helped in providing further expansion
   plan. The R-2 value between the predicted solar potential and actual
   generation for this study is 0.82.},

   obtained from molecular dynamics simulation of donor/acceptor blends and

   While the methods used are well established, the integration of these
   state-of-the-art tools originating from different disciplines to study
   photoinduced CT processes with explicit treatment of the environment, in
   our opinion, makes this package unique and innovative. The software also
   provides tools for investigating other observables of interest. After

Title = {Flux Puppy - An open-source software application and portable system
   design for low-cost manual measurements of CO<sub>2</sub> and
   H<sub>2</sub>O fluxes},

Abstract = {Manual chamber-based measurements of CO2 (and H2O) fluxes are important
   for understanding ecosystem carbon metabolism. Small opaque chambers can
   be used to measure leaf, stem and soil respiration. Larger transparent
   chambers can be used to measure net ecosystem exchange of CO2, and small
   jars often serve this purpose for laboratory incubations of soil and
   plant material. We developed an Android application (app), called Flux
   Puppy, to facilitate chamber-based flux measurements in the field and
   laboratory. The app is designed to run on an inexpensive handheld
   Android device, such as a tablet or phone, and it has a graphical user
   interface that communicates with a LI-COR LI-820 and LI-830 (CO2) or
   LI-840 and LI-850 (CO2/H2O) infrared gas analyzer. The app logs
   concentrations of CO2 and H2O, cell temperature and pressure at 1 Hz,
   displays the output graphically, and calculates the linear regression
   slope, R-squared, and standard error of the CO2 time series. A metadata
   screen allows users to enter operator, site, and plot information, as
   well as take a photograph using the Android device's built-in camera,
   and log measurement location using the device GPS. Additionally, there
   is a notes field, which can be revised after the measurements are taken.
   Data files (the 1 s raw data, photograph, and metadata including
   statistics calculated from the raw data) are then transmitted off the
   device through file sharing options (Gmail, Outlook, Google Drive,
   Dropbox etc.). Because Flux Puppy code is open-source (available on
   GitHub) and the flux measurement system we describe is relatively
   inexpensive and straightforward to assemble, it should be of broad
   interest to the carbon cycling community.},

   authors demonstrate how flows of money, knowledge and technology
   contribute to innovation within a network. A network consisting of
   different kinds of foundations and intermediaries that came together
   from 2004 to 2006 provides a unique example of relationships between
   foundations and grantees that allowed for the coordination of
   innovations without the explicit control of any of its constituent

Abstract = {Despite the growth experienced by the Collaborative Economy in recent
   years, there are still unexplored gaps within this phenomenon. One of
   the areas of study with scarce literature is linked with the impact of
   the In-formation and Communication Technologies based on collaborative
   environments, such as Free and Open Source Software, on the spread of
   the Collaborative Economy. Some questions are raised, such as: (1) To
   what extent do organizations linked with Collaborative Economy make use
   of Free and Open Source Software?, (2) What are the incentives that
   motivate the implementation of Free and Open Source Software in
   Collaborative Economy companies?, (3) What use do Collaborative Economy
   companies give to Free and Open Source Software?, and (4) Is there a
   greater use of Free and Open Source Software expected for the coming
   years among these organiza-tions? To answer these questions, a study
   based on the Delphi method has been designed. To this end, a panel of 15
   high-level experts in the field was formed. From the consensus of the
   experts, a significant role for Free and Open Source Software in the
   different collaborative components and industries is evident, with the
   current levels practically being maintained by the year 2025.},

Abstract = {Subspace segmentation is the task of segmenting data lying on multiple
   linear subspaces. Its applications in computer vision include motion
   segmentation in video, structure-from-motion, and image clustering. In
   this work, we describe a novel approach for subspace segmentation that
   uses probabilistic inference via a message-passing algorithm.
   We cast the subspace segmentation problem as that of choosing the best
   subset of linear subspaces from a set of candidate subspaces constructed
   from the data. Under this formulation, subspace segmentation corresponds
   to facility location, a well studied operational research problem.
   Approximate solutions to this NP-hard optimization problem can be found
   by performing maximum-a-posteriori (MAP) inference in a probabilistic
   graphical model. We describe the graphical model and a message-passing
   inference algorithm.
   We demonstrate the performance of Facility Location for Subspace
   Segmentation, or FLoSS, on synthetic data as well as on 3D multi-body
   video motion segmentation from point correspondences.},

Abstract = {Standards development organizations (SDOs) exist to assure the
   development of consensus-based, quality standards. These formal
   standards are needed in the telecommunications market to achieve
   functional interoperability. The standardization process takes years,
   and then a vendor still needs to implement the resulting standard in a
   product. This prevents service providers (SPs) who are willing to
   venture into new domains from doing so at a fast pace. With the
   development of software-defined networking (SDN) and network function
   virtualization (NFV), opensource technology is emerging as a new option
   in the telecommunications market. In contrast to SDOs, open-source
   software (OSS) communities create a product that may implicitly define a
   de-facto standard based on market consensus. Therefore, SPs are drawn to
   OSS, but they face technical, procedural, legal, and cultural challenges
   due to their lack of experience with open software development. The
   question therefore arises, how the interaction between OSS communities,
   SDOs, and industry fora (IF) can be organized to tackle these
   challenges.
   This article examines the evolving roles of OSS communities, IF, and
   SDOs, and places them in an NFV/SDN context. It sketches the differences
   between these roles and provides guidelines on how the interaction
   between them can turn into a mutually beneficial relationship that
   balances the conflicting goals of timely development on the one hand and
   technical excellence, openness, and fairness on the other, to reach
   their common goal of creating flexible and efficient telecommunications
   networks.},

Abstract = {X-ray computed tomography (CT) images of rock specimens often contain
   artifacts which must be corrected before scientific analyses are
   performed. This paper presents a new workflow of automated image
   processing to utilize poor-quality X-ray CT scan images. The workflow
   runs on the open-source image analysis software and efficiently
   separates desired features from low-contrast scanned images. The new
   workflow is a two-step technique using contrast enhancement and
   automated feature segmentation to generate noise-free binary images. The
   results of binary images using the proposed workflow and using a
   conventional thresholding technique are analyzed to show the quality of
   the proposed method. The paper also presents a workflow of estimating
   the structural geometries of features in two and three dimensions. The
   results of the structural feature analyses and computational time were
   compared between the open-source (ImageJ) and commercial image analysis
   software (Bruker Computed Tomography Analyzer). The commercial software
   was more computationally efficient, but the task-specific macros in
   open-source software enabled the user-desired automation in image
   processing and data extraction of desired structural features of
   comparable quality.},

Abstract = {A growing body of literature has explored the motivations for
   individuals to take part in free and open source software (FOSS), yet
   how firms participate is largely an unattended research area. Building
   on information from an extensive dataset of secondary sources and 30
   in-depth interviews, I show that de novo entrants have emerged in
   conjunction with a changing institutional infrastructure and a more
   pragmatic attitude toward firms that focus on technological benefits
   rather than ideology. To understand how these firms try to harness the
   work of these communities, I use the empirical data to derive a 22
   matrix of different approaches. The X axis reflects whether or not the
   firms initiated a new community or relied on communities founded by
   peers, whereas the Y axis represents the degree of participation of the
   firm in the community. This taxonomy illustrates how de novo entrant are
   initiating new forms of communities or joining communities established
   by peers. This suggests that while many of the central pillars of FOSS
   remains, de novo entrants have emerged to find new ways of making
   business resulting in various implications for firm strategies and

Abstract = {This study attempted to delineate and map potential groundwater recharge
   zones of the Singida, semi-arid, fractured crystalline basement aquifer
   using open source remote sensing and GIS software. Various thematic maps
   such as lithology/hydrogeology, soil, land-cover/use, slope, lineament
   density, drainage density and rainfall distribution were integrated in
   QGIS software. Vector input layers were rasterized and resampled using
   QGIS wrap projection function to make sure that the grid cells are of
   the same size. Reclassification using SAGA and GRASS reclass algorithms
   in QGIS was carried out to realign the factor classes in a consistent
   scale, and reclassification to a scale of 1 to 5 was carried out to
   harmonize the results. The study identified a number of potential areas
   for groundwater recharge, groundwater exploration, groundwater
   development and potential areas for artificial groundwater recharge.
   Potential groundwater recharge zones for the Singida semi-arid fractured
   aquifer are restricted to areas with high lineament density, cultivated
   areas, grassland and flat to gentle slopes. The potential of groundwater
   recharge is also observed in areas with low drainage density. The
   delineated zones provide a good understanding of the potential recharge
   zones, which are a starting point for recharge zone protection. This
   blended approach can be utilized for carrying out suitability analysis
   using the weighted overlay analysis approach. Areas designated good and
   very good are recommended for artificial recharging structures as an
   alternative technique for enhancing groundwater recharge through
   rainwater harvesting. This will help to augment groundwater storage in
   this semi-arid environment.},

Abstract = {PurposeThis research investigates how the value creation interests and

   OpenSimulator using textual and thematic analyses of the initial four
   years of OpenSimulator developer mailing list to identify each
   stakeholder group and guide our analysis of their interests and value
   creation activities over time.FindingsThe analysis revealed that while
   each stakeholder group was active within the OSS project's development,
   the different groups possessed complementary interests that enabled the
   project to evolve. In the formative period, entrepreneurs were
   interested in the software's strategic direction in the market,
   academics and SMEs in software functionality and large firms and
   hobbyists in software testing. Each group retained its primary interest
   in the maturing period with academics and SMEs separating into server-
   and client-side usability. The analysis shed light on how the different
   stakeholder groups overcame tensions amongst themselves and took
   specific actions to sustain the project.Originality/valueThe authors
   extend stakeholder theory by reconceptualizing the focal organization
   and its stakeholders for OSS projects. To date, OSS research has
   primarily focused on examining one project relative to its marketplace.
   Using stakeholder theory, we identified stakeholder groups within a
   single OSS project to demonstrate their distinct interests and how these
   interests influence their value creation activities over time.
   Collectively, these interests enable the project's long-term
   development.},

   we could correlate late, increased feature dependencies with an
   increased number for subsequent improvements and bug fixes.},

Abstract = {OSS is a real-time supervising concept for marine operations and

   links to computers running ocean models, computer ocean models and a

   the sensor network. The paper describes the overall system and how the
   sensor measurements are updating the model. The inclusion of
   electromagnetic communication in the sensor network is discussed,
   illustrating the link sea surface range and performance in terms of
   signal level variations. Results from real measurements at the coast of
   Norway show the improved predictions of sea current behaviour. Besides
   from improving the quality of predictions, modelling is used for optimum
   deployment of the network nodes, representing a major economical benefit
   of the OSS approach compared to a more ad hoc deployment of the nodes.},

Abstract = {The thermal analysis of milkweed and several individual commercial
   materials of similar chemical composition has been carried out. By
   combining a two-stage thermal process (pyrolysis-combustion) with a
   thermogravimetric analyzer and a Fourier transform infrared
   spectrometer, it has been possible to identify the major organic
   volatile products of pyrolysis and to correlate gas evolution with the
   decomposition of the individual components (cellulose, hemicellulose and
   lignin) of the floss. During pyrolysis, acetic acid, formic acid and
   methanol are formed in addition to CO2 and H2O. The data also show that
   pyrolytic decomposition of the three chemical constituents of milkweed
   occur without any apparent synergistic interaction. The combustion of
   milkweed produced CO2 and H2O, as expected, but the removal of the waxy
   coating from the fibers results in an increased susceptibility to
   combustion. The coating displays no effect on the process of pyrolysis.},

   contributor through her capacity, willingness, and the opportunity to
   contribute at the time of joining. Using issue tracking data of Mozilla
   and Gnome, we find that the probability for a new joiner to become a
   Long Term Contributor (LTC) is associated with her willingness and
   environment. Specifically, during their first month, future LTCs tend to
   be more active and show more community-oriented attitude than other
   joiners. Joiners who start by commenting on instead of reporting an
   issue or ones who succeed to get at least one reported issue to be
   fixed, more than double their odds of becoming an LTC. The micro-climate
   with a productive and clustered peer group increases the odds. On the
   contrary, the macro-climate with high project popularity and the
   micro-climate with low attention from peers reduce the odds. This
   implies that the interaction between individual's attitude and project's
   climate are associated with the odds that an individual would become a
   valuable contributor or disengage from the project. Our findings may
   provide a basis for empirical approaches to design a better community
   architecture and to improve the experience of contributors.},

Volume = {41},
Number = {1},
Pages = {82-99},

Abstract = {Motivation: To survive and succeed, FLOSS projects need contributors
   able to accomplish critical project tasks. However, such tasks require
   extensive project experience of long term contributors (LTCs). Aim: We
   measure, understand, and predict how the newcomers' involvement and
   environment in the issue tracking system (ITS) affect their odds of
   becoming an LTC. Method: ITS data of Mozilla and Gnome, literature,
   interviews, and online documents were used to design measures of
   involvement and environment. A logistic regression model was used to
   explain and predict contributor's odds of becoming an LTC. We also
   reproduced the results on new data provided by Mozilla. Results: We
   constructed nine measures of involvement and environment based on events
   recorded in an ITS. Macro-climate is the overall project environment
   while micro-climate is person-specific and varies among the
   participants. Newcomers who are able to get at least one issue reported
   in the first month to be fixed, doubled their odds of becoming an LTC.
   The macro-climate with high project popularity and the micro-climate
   with low attention from peers reduced the odds. The precision of LTC
   prediction was 38 times higher than for a random predictor. We were able
   to reproduce the results with new Mozilla data without losing the
   significance or predictive power of the previously published model. We
   encountered unexpected changes in some attributes and suggest ways to
   make analysis of ITS data more reproducible. Conclusions: The findings
   suggest the importance of initial behaviors and experiences of new
   participants and outline empirically-based approaches to help the
   communities with the recruitment of contributors for long-term
   participation and to help the participants contribute more effectively.
   To facilitate the reproduction of the study and of the proposed measures
   in other contexts, we provide the data we retrieved and the scripts we

Journal = {SENSORS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {24},

Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {The remote monitoring of vital signs via wearable devices holds
   significant potential for alleviating the strain on hospital resources
   and elder-care facilities. Among the various techniques available,
   photoplethysmography stands out as particularly promising for assessing
   vital signs such as heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, and
   blood pressure. Despite the efficacy of this method, many commercially
   available wearables, bearing Conformit \& eacute; Europ \& eacute;enne
   marks and the approval of the Food and Drug Administration, are often
   integrated within proprietary, closed data ecosystems and are very
   expensive. In an effort to democratize access to affordable wearable
   devices, our research endeavored to develop an open-source
   photoplethysmographic sensor utilizing off-the-shelf hardware and
   open-source software components. The primary aim of this investigation
   was to ascertain whether the combination of off-the-shelf hardware
   components and open-source software yielded vital-sign measurements
   (specifically heart rate and respiratory rate) comparable to those
   obtained from more expensive, commercially endorsed medical devices.
   Conducted as a prospective, single-center study, the research involved
   the assessment of fifteen participants for three minutes in four
   distinct positions, supine, seated, standing, and walking in place. The
   sensor consisted of four PulseSensors measuring photoplethysmographic
   signals with green light in reflection mode. Subsequent signal
   processing utilized various open-source Python packages. The heart rate
   assessment involved the comparison of three distinct methodologies,
   while the respiratory rate analysis entailed the evaluation of fifteen
   different algorithmic combinations. For one-minute average heart rates'
   determination, the Neurokit process pipeline achieved the best results
   in a seated position with a Spearman's coefficient of 0.9 and a mean
   difference of 0.59 BPM. For the respiratory rate, the combined
   utilization of Neurokit and Charlton algorithms yielded the most
   favorable outcomes with a Spearman's coefficient of 0.82 and a mean
   difference of 1.90 BrPM. This research found that off-the-shelf
   components are able to produce comparable results for heart and
   respiratory rates to those of commercial and approved medical wearables.},

Abstract = {This manuscript delineates two open innovation strategies, inbound and

   leverage Opportunity-Motivation-Ability (OMA) theory to explain that
   inbound open innovation provides opportunities to access external
   knowledge in open innovation community networks; but whether a project
   can absorb and utilize such external knowledge depends on outbound open
   innovation and project team role diversity, which influence the team
   members? motivation and ability to do so. Using a large sample of open
   source software projects, the empirical findings suggest project
   performance should be distinguished as internal (technical performance)
   and external (market performance) to understand the effects of open
   innovation strategy. Technical performance is enhanced with a coupled
   open innovation strategy that leverages both high outbound open
   innovation and high inbound open innovation, in conjunction with low
   team role diversity. However, an inbound open innovation strategy is
   optimal for market performance, particularly when team role diversity is
   high. Thus, project team role diversity explains the trade-off effects
   of inbound and outbound open innovation strategies on project technical
   performance and market performance.},

Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Increasing demand for open-source software (OSS) has raised the value of
   efficient selection in terms of quality; usability is an essential
   quality factor that significantly affects system acceptability and
   sustainability. Most large and complex software packages partitioned
   across multiple portals and involve many users - each with their role in
   the software package; those users have different perspectives on the
   software package, defined by their knowledge, responsibilities, and
   commitments. Thus, a multi-perspective approach has been used in
   usability evaluation to overcome the challenge of inconsistency between
   users' perspectives; the inconsistency challenge would lead to an
   ill-advised decision on the selection of a suitable OSS. This study
   aimed to assist the public and private organizations in evaluating and
   selecting the most suitable OSS. The evaluation of the OSS software
   packages to choose the best one is a challenging task owing to (a)
   multiple evaluation criteria, (b) criteria importance, and (c) data
   variation; thus, it is considered a sophisticated multi-criteria
   decision making (MCDM) problem; moreover, the multi-perspective
   usability evaluation framework for OSS selection lacks in the current
   literature. Hence, this study proposes a novel multi-perspective
   usability evaluation framework for the selection of OSS based on the
   multi-criteria analysis. Integration of best-worst method (BWM) and
   VIKOR MCDM techniques has been used for weighting and ranking OSS
   alternatives. BWM is utilized for weighting of evaluation criteria,
   whereas VIKOR is applied to rank OSS-LMS alternatives. Individual and
   group decision-making contexts, and the internal and external groups
   aggregation were used to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed
   framework. A well-organized algorithmic procedure is presented in
   detail, and a case study was examined to illustrate the validity and
   feasibility of the proposed framework. The results demonstrated that BWM
   and VIKOR integration works effectively to solve the OSS software
   package benchmarking/selection problems. Furthermore, the ranks of OSS
   software packages obtained from the VIKOR internal and external group
   decision making were similar; the best OSS-LMS based on the two ways was
   `Moodle' software package. Among the scores of groups in the objective
   validation, significant differences were identified; this indicated that
   the ranking results of internal and external VIKOR group decision making
   were valid, which pointed to the validation of the framework.},

Abstract = {Open-source software applications, especially those useful for GIS, have
   been used in the field of geology both in research and teaching at the
   University of Urbino for decades. The experiences described in this
   article range from land-surveying cases to cartographic processing and
   3D printing of geological models. History of their use and development
   is punctuated by trials, failures, and slowdowns, but the idea of using
   digital tools in areas where they are traditionally frowned upon, such
   as in soil geology, is now rooted in and validated by applications in
   projects of various types. Although the current situation is not
   definitive, given that the evolution of information technology provides
   increasingly faster tools that are performance-oriented and easier to
   use, this article aims to contribute to the development of methodologies
   through an exchange of information and experiences.},

Abstract = {To meet the demands of precise orbit and clock determination,
   high-precision positioning, and navigation applications, a software
   called GREAT (GNSS + Research, Application and Teaching) was designed
   and developed at Wuhan University. As one important module in the GREAT
   software, GREAT-UPD was developed for multi-GNSS and multi-frequency
   uncalibrated phase delay (UPD) estimation. It can provide
   extra-wide-lane (EWL), wide-lane (WL), and narrow-lane (NL) UPDs for
   GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BDS (GREC) satellites for precise point
   positioning (PPP) ambiguity resolution (AR) in a multi-GNSS and
   multi-frequency environment. The open-source GREAT-UPD software is
   written in C + + 11 language following object-oriented principles and
   can be compiled and run on several popular operating systems, such as
   Windows, Linux, and Macintosh. Observations from 222 stations spanning
   days from DOY 091 to 120 were used to conduct multi-GNSS and
   multi-frequency UPD estimation and PPP AR. Results indicate that
   GREAT-UPD can generate stable and reliable UPD products with multi-GNSS
   and multi-frequency observations. After applying the UPD corrections,
   the multi-frequency GREC PPP AR was achieved with the averaged time to
   first fix of 9.0 min. The software package can be obtained at
   https://geodesy.noaa. gov/gps-toolbox,, including the source code, user
   manual, batch processing scripts, example data, and some auxiliary

Abstract = {This paper focuses on the interplay between firms and open and
   collaborative innovation communities. We develop a formal model where
   both volunteers (agents setting their agendas freely) and firm's
   employees (agents whose agenda is mostly set by their employer)
   participate in the creation of a common artifact. In this framework, we
   discuss how firms can influence the architecture of the emerging product
   to assure fast and performant development and a desirable distribution
   of innovative labor within the project team. We find that closing the
   project only to employees implies high speed and performance if
   employees are given autonomy in certain dimensions and are directed in
   others. In this case, however, we observe a trade-off in terms of ideal
   core-periphery division of labor on one side and development speed and
   performance on the other side. At the opposite extreme, creating a
   volunteer-only project can ease the trade-off but assures positive
   results only if the firm is able to set up an entry mechanism that
   ``surgically{''} selects volunteers with specific preferences. A mixture
   of both employees and volunteers can strike a good balance, relaxing the
   two constraints.},

Abstract = {The growth of digital pathology over the past decade has opened new
   research pathways and insights in cancer prediction and prognosis. In
   particular, there has been a surge in deep learning and computer vision
   techniques to analyse digital images. Common practice in this area is to
   use image pre-processing and augmentation to prevent bias and
   overfitting, creating a more robust deep learning model. This generally
   requires consultation of documentation for multiple coding libraries, as
   well as trial and error to ensure that the techniques used on the images
   are appropriate. Herein we introduce HistoClean; a user-friendly,
   graphical user interface that brings together multiple image processing
   modules into one easy to use toolkit.
   HistoClean is an application that aims to help bridge the knowledge gap
   between pathologists, biomedical scientists and computer scientists by
   providing transparent image augmentation and pre-processing techniques
   which can be applied without prior coding knowledge.
   In this study, we utilise HistoClean to pre-process images for a simple
   convolutional neural network used to detect stromal maturity, improving
   the accuracy of the model at a tile, region of interest, and patient
   level. This study demonstrates how HistoClean can be used to improve a
   standard deep learning workflow via classical image augmentation and
   pre-processing techniques, even with a relatively simple convolutional
   neural network architecture. HistoClean is free and open-source and can
   be downloaded from the Github repository here:

Title = {The <i>blenderFace</i> method: video-based measurement of raw movement
   data during facial expressions of emotion using open-source software},
Journal = {BEHAVIOR RESEARCH METHODS},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {51},
Number = {2},
Pages = {747-768},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {This article proposes an optical measurement of movement applied to data
   from video recordings of facial expressions of emotion. The approach
   offers a way to capture motion adapted from the film industry in which
   markers placed on the skin of the face can be tracked with a
   pattern-matching algorithm. The method records and postprocesses raw
   facial movement data (coordinates per frame) of distinctly placed
   markers and is intended for use in facial expression research (e.g.,
   microexpressions) in laboratory settings. Due to the explicit use of
   specifically placed, artificial markers, the procedure offers the
   simultaneous measurement of several emotionally relevant markers in a
   (psychometrically) objective and artifact-free way, even for facial
   regions without natural landmarks (e.g., the cheeks). In addition, the
   proposed procedure is fully based on open-source software and is
   transparent at every step of data processing. Two worked examples
   demonstrate the practicability of the proposed procedure: In Study
   1(N=39), the participants were instructed to show the emotions
   happiness, sadness, disgust, and anger, and in Study 2 (N=113), they
   were asked to present both a neutral face and the emotions happiness,
   disgust, and fear. Study 2 involved the simultaneous tracking of 14
   markers for approximately 12 min per participant with a time resolution
   of 33 ms. The measured facial movements corresponded closely to the
   assumptions of established measurement instruments (EMFACS, FACSAID,
   Friesen \& Ekman, 1983; Ekman \& Hager, 2002). In addition, the
   measurement was found to be very precise with sub-second, sub-pixel, and
   sub-millimeter accuracy.},

Abstract = {Advances in understanding the control mechanisms governing the behavior
   of cells in adherent mammalian tissue culture models are becoming
   increasingly dependent on modes of single-cell analysis. Methods which
   deliver composite data reflecting the mean values of biomarkers from
   cell populations risk losing subpopulation dynamics that reflect the
   heterogeneity of the studied biological system. In keeping with this,
   traditional approaches are being replaced by, or supported with, more
   sophisticated forms of cellular assay developed to allow assessment by
   high-content microscopy. These assays potentially generate large numbers
   of images of fluorescent biomarkers, which enabled by accompanying
   proprietary software packages, allows for multi-parametric measurements
   per cell. However, the relatively high capital costs and
   overspecialization of many of these devices have prevented their
   accessibility to many investigators.
   Described here is a universally applicable workflow for the
   quantification of multiple fluorescent marker intensities from specific
   subcellular regions of individual cells suitable for use with images
   from most fluorescent microscopes. Key to this workflow is the
   implementation of the freely available Cell Profiler software(1) to
   distinguish individual cells in these images, segment them into defined
   subcellular regions and deliver fluorescence marker intensity values
   specific to these regions. The extraction of individual cell intensity
   values from image data is the central purpose of this workflow and will
   be illustrated with the analysis of control data from a siRNA screen for
   G1 checkpoint regulators in adherent human cells. However, the workflow
   presented here can be applied to analysis of data from other means of
   cell perturbation (e.g., compound screens) and other forms of
   fluorescence based cellular markers and thus should be useful for a wide
   range of laboratories.},

Abstract = {The flow around the ramp embedded in a pressurized tunnel is divided
   into the various zones immediately downstream of the ramp, including the
   cavity and the main zone of flow above the shear layer. The aeration
   coefficient of the flow from the lower surface (inside the
   cavity)(beta(lower)) is a function of non-dimensional numbers which
   aerator geometry parameters such as cavity length to ramp height
   L-c/t(r) is considered as one of the most important parameters.
   Therefore, in the present study, OpenFOAM software and RNG k-epsilon
   turbulence model were used to simulate the flow to study the aeration
   effect on flow characteristics, so the range of aeration coefficient as
   0\%<beta<10\% for four ramps with different t(r)/d ratios is Applied,
   then by increasing the aeration coefficient in the range of
   0\%<beta<16\%, The dependency range of relative Cavity length L-c/t(r)
   to (beta) was evaluated. In order to verify performance of the numerical
   model, experimental results of Manafpour test were used. The results of
   the research indicate that in the aeration of flow with aerator ramp,
   the height of ramp has more influence relative to ramp angle. Moreover
   the main Effectiveness of the aeration coefficient on the cavity length
   was limited to air percent less than 10\%.},

Abstract = {A major challenge in the diagnosis and treatment of brain tumors is
   tissue heterogeneity leading to mixed treatment response. Additionally,
   they are often difficult or at very high risk for biopsy, further
   hindering the clinical management process. To overcome this, novel
   advanced imaging methods are increasingly being adapted clinically to
   identify useful noninvasive biomarkers capable of disease stage
   characterization and treatment response prediction. One promising
   technique is called functional diffusion mapping (fDM), which uses
   diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) to generate parametric maps between two
   imaging time points in order to identify significant voxel-wise changes
   in water diffusion within the tumor tissue. Here we introduce serial
   functional diffusion mapping (sfDM), an extension of existing fDM
   methods, to analyze the entire tumor diffusion profile along the
   temporal course of the disease. sfDM provides the tools necessary to
   analyze a tumor data set in the context of spatiotemporal parametric
   mapping: the image registration pipeline, biomarker extraction, and
   visualization tools. We present the general workflow of the pipeline,
   along with a typical use case for the software. sfDM is written in
   Python and is freely available as an open-source package under the
   Berkley Software Distribution (BSD) license to promote transparency and

Abstract = {Adopting Open Source Software (OSS) that has an enterprise-wide
   implication could be complex and requires an organization to possess
   adequate level of internal human capital before doing so. In this study,
   we propose and validate two antecedents of organizational investment in
   internal human capital in the context of OSS adoption. They are (1)
   firm-specificity of OSS human capital, which denotes the extent to which
   the internal OSS human capital is strongly tied to the organization and
   cannot be equally well applied in other organizations, and (2)
   learning-related scale, which reflects the extent to which the
   organizational cost of learning OSS can be spread by applying the
   knowledge gained to other projects and business functions within the
   organization. Survey data collected from 114 senior Information
   Technology (IT) managers and professionals indicates that these two
   factors are positively associated with the investment in cultivating
   internal OSS human capital.},

   to evaluate STR DNA profiles from a mixture of contributors with
   artefacts},
Journal = {FORENSIC SCIENCE INTERNATIONAL-GENETICS},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {21},
Pages = {35-44},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {We have released a software named EuroForMix to analyze STR DNA profiles
   in a user-friendly graphical user interface. The software implements a
   model to explain the allelic peak height on a continuous scale in order
   to carry out weight-of-evidence calculations for profiles which could be
   from a mixture of contributors. Through a properly parameterized model
   we are able to do inference on mixture proportions, the peak height
   properties, stutter proportion and degradation. In addition, EuroForMix
   includes models for allele drop-out, allele drop-in and sub-population
   structure. EuroForMix supports two inference approaches for likelihood
   ratio calculations. The first approach uses maximum likelihood
   estimation of the unknown parameters. The second approach is Bayesian
   based which requires prior distributions to be specified for the
   parameters involved. The user may specify any number of known and
   unknown contributors in the model, however we find that there is a
   practical computing time limit which restricts the model to a maximum of
   four unknown contributors.
   EuroForMix is the first freely open source, continuous model
   (accommodating peak height, stutter, drop-in, drop-out, population
   substructure and degradation), to be reported in the literature. It
   therefore serves an important purpose to act as an unrestricted platform
   to compare different solutions that are available. The implementation of
   the continuous model used in the software showed close to identical
   results to the R-package DNAmixtures, which requires a HUGIN Expert
   license to be used. An additional feature in EuroForMix is the ability
   for the user to adapt the Bayesian inference framework by incorporating
   their own prior information. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights

Abstract = {Over the past decade, scientific research has attempted to understand
   the success and the spread of communities that have been created and
   developed thanks to Internet technology. Education studies have also
   analysed the importance of these communities in spreading and sharing
   knowledge and educational culture has looked to these organizational
   forms for inspiration. At the same time, the link between these
   experiences and the development of pedagogical models emerging from
   cognitive sciences, systemic theory and the new forms of constructivism,
   which have generated a fruitful theory/practice circle, has been
   reinforced. The aim of this paper is to analyse the particular type of
   organizational, communicative and productive context of Open
   Communities: Free Software Communities, to understand how they work,
   their efficacy and to show their close link with dynamics and relations
   of an educational, formative and didactic type. Learning communities can
   still learn strategies of communication, organization and socialization
   from these communities, as well as the value of motivation and the
   importance of freedom and circulation of knowledge in order to build up
   efficient communities. We can also gain the understanding that the
   success of these communities depends on the fact that they are
   educational communities, therefore education studies can convey values,
   models and a culture of sharing to other sectors as well, such as the
   one taken into consideration: Free Software Communities. The study has
   been conducted with a research methodology of the phenomenological type
   thanks to a theoretical study and observation of different free software
   communities, visiting websites, chats, wiki pages, forums and other
   channels of discussion and collaboration.},

Abstract = {The emergence of Free/Open Source Software (FOSS) development model as a
   widely adopted paradigm in the software development industry in the
   recent few years has developed the interest of researchers towards the
   code quality of FOSS projects. Code clones are introduced in the
   software system by the adoption of common code reuse practices by FOSS
   developers. This has led the clone research community to observe the
   effects of code clones on the code quality of FOSS projects. Although
   code clones are not always harmful but they might become critical to
   large scale and evolving software systems such as FOSS projects.
   Research in this paper reveals the importance and need for improving
   code quality of FOSS projects by implementing an effective clone
   management system integrated in the FOSS development environment. This
   paper proposes a clone management framework that ensures effective clone
   evolution tracking and visualization in FOSS projects. This framework
   will appear as a baseline to initiate the efforts towards improving code
   quality by the implementation of a versatile clone management system for
   FOSS development.},

   highly modular to enable protocol extensions - two key requirements of
   its driving force, the White Rabbit (WR) Project {[}3] {[}4]. PPSi's
   core protocol code is common for all the supported architectures ranging
   from a Linux PC to a soft-core processor running in a Field Programmable
   Gate Array (FPGA) - a feature minimizing code duplication, easing
   debugging, and facilitating new developments. This paper gives an
   overview of PPSi's internals describing design choices as well as the
   means of achieving portability and extensibility. A detailed example of
   a simulator architecture proves the design advantages. With an
   increasing number of supported architectures and a wide use in WR
   networks, PPSi is becoming an appealing PTP implementation also outside
   of the White Rabbit Community.},

Abstract = {This paper describes Ciclope, a free software project designed to solve
   the problem of the lack of practical assignments in technical
   universities due to scarce resources and to the design of the
   educational system. Ciclope offers software and content to replicate the
   educational Web labs that the authors have designed, and whose
   architecture and work methodology are intended for teachers who want to
   create new Web labs. The biggest advantages of these kinds of
   laboratories are that users can work through the Internet as if they
   were present in the lab, but without space or time restrictions.
   Furthermore, teachers can have full control of what students do, since
   all operations are registered in a database which helps them to evaluate
   the students. Ciclope proposes a modular structure based on software
   components that are easy to install, configure, and extend according to
   teachers' needs. So far, various Web labs have been built to carry out
   practical assignments in astronomy, automatic control, chemistry, image
   processing, robotics, and real-time operating systems. The software,
   documentation, and content developed in this project are free, under GNU
   (a recursive acronym meaning GNU is Not UNIX) licenses, and as in all
   free projects, the authors welcome all collaboration from the

   designing with Processing, was held in the facilities of the Telefonica

   food and nature to generate images by using Processing, a programming
   language in an integrated development environment that usually serves
   the development of multimedia projects, inserted in the free software
   technology. The result was generative designs and repetition structures
   that generated a pattern, to be later printed on canvas using
   permeographic techniques. The article aims to show the processes of
   creation in artistic practice, through an innovative workshop for the
   exhibition context where it was made. The practice showed how creativity
   within an avant-garde environment such as haute cuisine chef Ferran
   Adria, must adapt to the changing reality and the development of new
   technologies. In every creative process, specific technological skills
   are combined with the expressive abilities of the artist. For this
   purpose, the open source program Proccesing was used as a creation tool,
   whose growing progress in free software initiatives is becoming
   increasingly evident in artistic practice and teaching research.},

Abstract = {Commercial participation continues to grow in open source software (OSS)
   projects and novel arrangements appear to emerge in company-dominated
   projects and ecosystems. What is the nature of these novel arrangements?
   Does volunteers' participation remain critical for these ecosystems?
   Despite extensive research on commercial participation in OSS, the exact
   nature and extent of company contributions to OSS development, and the
   impact of this engagement may have on the volunteer community have not
   been clarified. To bridge the gap, we perform an exploratory study of
   OpenStack: a large OSS ecosystem with intense commercial participation.
   We quantify companies' contributions via the developers that they
   provide and the commits made by those developers. We find that companies
   made far more contributions than volunteers and the distribution of the
   contributions made by different companies is also highly unbalanced. We
   observe eight unique contribution models based on companies' commercial
   objectives and characterize each model according to three dimensions:
   contribution intensity, extent, and focus. Companies providing full
   cloud solutions tend to make both intensive (more than other companies)
   and extensive (involving a wider variety of projects) contributions.
   Usage-oriented companies make extensive but less intense contributions.
   Companies driven by particular business needs focus their contributions
   on the specific projects addressing these needs. Minor contributors
   include community players (e.g., the Linux Foundation) and research
   groups. A model relating the number of volunteers to the diversity of
   contribution shows a strong positive association between them.},

Abstract = {This paper explores software's pivotal role in the power dynamics of
   contemporary capitalism. The author theorizes Free Software as a new
   form of property that is infecting capitalism like a virus, challenging
   the system of private property central to its dominant logic. Free
   Software can be produced by developers working for free in peer
   communities or in profit-oriented firms. The author explores the
   conditions under which Free Software is produced through peer versus
   market-based production, emphasizing the implications for constructing
   the Free Software market and the digital commons. The author identifies
   actors' motivations, the organizational structure of production, and
   financial resources as three factors shaping these conditions. The
   author focuses on the case of Ubuntu, a Free Software operating system
   that is available free of charge on the Internet. Ubuntu is produced by
   Canonical, a Free Software, market-based firm, through an intriguing
   combination of market-based and peer production that both embodies and
   transforms capitalist practices.},

Abstract = {Effectively onboarding newcomers is essential for the success of open
   source projects. These projects often provide onboarding guidelines in
   their `CONTRIBUTING' files (e.g., CONTRIBUTING.md on GitHub). These
   files explain, for example, how to find open tasks, implement solutions,
   and submit code for review. However, these files often do not follow a
   standard structure, can be too large, and miss barriers commonly found
   by newcomers. In this paper, we propose an automated approach to parse
   these CONTRIBUTING files and assess how they address onboarding
   barriers. We manually classified a sample of files according to a model
   of onboarding barriers from the literature, trained a machine learning
   classifier that automatically predicts the categories of each paragraph
   (precision: 0.655, recall: 0.662), and surveyed developers to
   investigate their perspective of the predictions' adequacy (75\% of the
   predictions were considered adequate). We found that CONTRIBUTING files
   typically do not cover the barriers newcomers face (52\% of the analyzed
   projects missed at least 3 out of the 6 barriers faced by newcomers;
   84\% missed at least 2). Our analysis also revealed that information
   about choosing a task and talking with the community, two of the most
   recurrent barriers newcomers face, are neglected in more than 75\% of
   the projects. We made available our classifier as an online service that
   analyzes the content of a given CONTRIBUTING file. Our approach may help
   community builders identify missing information in the project ecosystem
   they maintain and newcomers can understand what to expect in
   CONTRIBUTING files.},

Abstract = {Introduction- In this article proposes the creation of a prototype of
   storage of data on Cloud Computing using free software tools, for small
   and medium enterprises (SMEs), which will contribute in improving the
   storage capacity of information, incorporating to the process a Cloud
   Storage tool, which allows to create, save and update the data in a
   synchronized way from any geographic location, reducing the risks of
   maintaining several versions of a document and losing temporary or
   definitive information. In this way it is proposed to show that free
   open source tools are low cost and collaborative for small businesses.
   Objective- Evaluate the relevance, feasibility and impact of Cloud
   Storage tools on free software in order to implement a data storage
   prototype to be used by small and medium enterprises, establishing
   organizational and decision-making schemes according to their objectives
   business.
   Methodology- It is based on a spiral method by stages. In the first
   stage the model of comparison of free software products Qualification
   and Selection of Opensource Software (QSOS) applied to identify the best
   Cloud Storage tool. Second stage, the design and implementation of the
   prototype was carried out for storage over Cloud Computing. The last
   stage, tests and adjustments were made in the validation of said
   prototype for its start-up.
   Results- Structure of a finished functional prototype for the storage of
   data on Cloud Computing through the use of free software tools, aimed at
   small and medium enterprises, evidencing its easy handling, control and
   decision making in the management of their data and deployment in the
   organization becoming a tool that benefits this type of productive
   sector.
   Conclusions- The construction of data storage systems on Cloud
   Computing, based or guided on the achieved prototype, constitutes a low
   cost tool in its implementation and maintenance, which contributes to
   the sustainability of the solution together with the possibility of
   scaling new functions and / or modules, by small and medium-sized
   companies, that do not have financial resources for investment in
   information technology and connectivity and storage services.},

   paper, the authors state and explain some of these principles from the
   perspective of experienced open source developers, and give the

   and changing project sizes, and how it deals with these successfully.},

Abstract = {Past software engineering literature has firmly established that
   software architectures and the associated code decay over time.
   Architectural decay is, potentially, a major issue in Free/Libre/Open
   Source Software (FLOSS) projects, since developers sporadically joining
   FLOSS projects do not always have a clear understanding of the
   underlying architecture, and may break the overall conceptual structure
   by several small changes to the code base.
   This paper investigates whether the structure of a FLOSS system and its
   decay can also be influenced by the repository in which it is retained:
   specifically, two FLOSS repositories are studied to understand whether
   the complexity of the software structure in the sampled projects is
   comparable, or one repository hosts more complex systems than the other
   It is also studied whether the effort to counteract this complexity is
   dependent on the repository, and the governance it gives to the hosted
   projects.
   The results of the paper are two-fold: on one side, it is shown that the
   repository hosting larger and more active projects presents more complex
   structures. On the other side, these larger and more complex systems
   benefit from more anti-regressive work to reduce this complexity.},

Abstract = {Cloud computing and open source are two disruptive innovations. Both
   deeply modify the way the computer resources are made available and
   monetized. They evolve between competition (e.g. open source software
   for desktop versus SaaS applications) and complementarity (e.g. cloud
   solutions based on open source components or cloud applications
   published under open source license). PaaSage is an open source
   integrated platform to support both design and deployment of cloud
   applications. The PaaSage consortium decided to publish the source code
   as open source. It needed a process for the open source license
   selection. Open source licensing scheme born before the development of
   cloud computing and evolved with the creation of new open source
   licenses suitable for SaaS applications. The license is a part of
   project governance and strongly influences the life of the project. In
   the context of the PaaSage European project, the issue of the open
   source license selection for cloud computing software has been
   addressed. The first section of the paper describes the state of the art
   about open source licenses including the known issues, a generic
   license-selection scheme and the automated source code analysis
   practices. The second section studies the common choices of licenses in
   cloud computing projects. The third section proposes a FLOSS
   license-selection process for cloud computing project following five
   steps: (1) inventoring software components, (2) selecting open source
   license, (3) approving license selection (vote), (4) spreading practical
   details and (5) monitoring source code. The fourth section describes the
   PaaSage use case. The last section consists in a discussion of the
   results.},

   such strategy or another: which are the business goals that are
   supported, which are the resources that emerge, etc. To this aim, we
   first enumerate the main existing OSS adoption strategies, next we
   formulate an ontology that comprises the activities and resources that
   characterise these strategies, then based on the experience of 5
   industrial partners of the RISCOSS EU-funded project, we explore how
   these elements are managed in each strategy and formulate the
   corresponding model using the i{*} framework.},

Title = {Using open-source software and digital imagery to efficiently and
   objectively quantify cover density of an invasive alien plant species},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {266},
Month = {JUL 15},
Abstract = {The most commonly used method for measuring vegetation cover is visual
   estimation, which is highly subjective, potentially leading to
   measurement errors. This poses serious implications to the assessment
   and continued management of plant species cover, for example in the
   control of invasive plant species. Morphological analysis of digital
   imagery has, to date, been primarily applied in the classification of
   landscape features. Our novel application of morphological image
   analysis provides an objective method for detection and accurate cover
   assessment of an invasive alien plant species (IAS), giving reduced
   measurement errors when compared to visual estimation. Importantly, this
   method is entirely based on free software. Guidos Toolbox is a
   collection of generic raster image processing routines, including
   Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis (MSPA), which classifies and
   quantifies features according to shape. MSPA was employed in this study
   to detect and quantify cover of invasive Petasites pyrenaicus (Winter
   heliotrope) in digital images of 1 m x 1 m plots. Its efficacy was
   compared to that of two other methods- GIS Digitisation (used as an
   accurate baseline) and Visual Estimation (standard method). We tested
   the limit of MSPA usability on images of varying complexity, i.e.
   ``simple{''}, intermediate{''} or ``complex{''}, depending on
   presence/absence of other vascular plant species and the species
   richness of plot. Our results show good agreement between all three
   methods. MSPA measurement of P. pyrenaicus cover was most closely
   aligned with the GIS Digitisation (concordance correlation coefficients
   of 0.966). Visual Estimation was less closely aligned with GIS
   Digitisation (concordance correlation coefficients of 0.888). However,
   image complexity resulted in differing levels of agreement; with the
   closest agreement being achieved between MSPA and GIS Digitisation when
   used on images of lower and higher complexity. MSPA consistently
   provides higher accuracy and precision for P. pyrenaicus cover
   measurement than the standard Visual Estimation method. Our methodology
   is applicable to a range of focal vegetation species, both herbaceous
   and graminoid. Future application of MSPA for larger-scale surveying and
   monitoring via remote sensing is discussed, potentially reducing
   resource demands and increasing cover measurement consistency and
   accuracy. We recommend this method forms part of vegetation management
   toolkits for not only environmental managers, but for anyone concerned
   with plant cover assessment, from agricultural systems to sustainable
   resource use.},

Abstract = {We introduce a free and open-source software package (PES-Learn) which

   models of molecular potential energy surfaces (PESs). PES-Learn
   incorporates a generalized framework for producing grid points across a
   PES that is compatible with most electronic structure theory software.
   The newly generated or externally supplied PES data can then be used to
   train and optimize neural network or Gaussian process models in a
   completely automated fashion. Robust hyperparameter optimization schemes
   designed specifically for molecular PES applications are implemented to
   ensure that the best possible model for the data set is fit with high
   quality. The performance of PES-Learn toward fitting a few semiglobal
   PESs from the literature is evaluated. We also demonstrate the use of
   PES-Learn machine learning models in carrying out high-level vibrational
   configuration interaction computations on water and formaldehyde.},

Abstract = {Open source software systems are important components of many business
   software applications. Field defect predictions for open source
   soft-ware systems may allow organizations to make informed decisions
   regarding open source software components. In this paper, we remotely
   measure and analyze predictors (metrics available before release) mined
   from established data sources (the code repository and the request
   tracking system) as well as a novel source of data (mailing list
   archives) for nine releases of OpenBSD. First, we attempt to predict
   field defects by extending a software reliability model fitted to
   development defects. We find this approach to be infeasible, which
   motivates examining metrics-based field defect prediction. Then, we
   evaluate 139 predictors using established statistical methods: Kendall's
   rank correlation, Pearson's rank correlation, and forward AIC model
   selection. The metrics we collect include product metrics, development
   metrics, deployment and usage metrics, and software and hardware
   configurations metrics. We find the number of messages to the technical
   discussion mailing list during the development period (a deployment and
   usage metric captured from mailing list archives) to be the best
   predictor of field defects. Our work identifies predictors of field
   defects in commonly available data sources for open source software
   systems and is a step towards metrics-based field defect prediction for
   quantitatively-based decision making regarding open source software
   components.},

Title = {The use and role of open source software applications in public and
   not-for-profit hospitals in the United States},
Journal = {HEALTH CARE MANAGEMENT REVIEW},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {38},
Number = {4},
Pages = {361-370},
Month = {OCT-DEC},
Abstract = {Background: The potential cost savings and customizability of open
   source software (OSS) may be particularly attractive for hospitals.
   However, numerous health-care-specific OSS applications exist, the
   adoption of OSS health information technology (HIT) applications is not
   widespread in the United States.
   Purpose: This disconnect between the availability of promising software
   and low adoption raises the basic question: If OSS HIT is so
   advantageous, why are more health care organizations not using it?
   Methodology: We interviewed the chief information officer, or equivalent
   position, at 17 not-for-profit and public hospitals across the United
   States. Through targeted recruitment, our sample included nine hospitals
   using OSS HIT and eight hospitals not using OSS HIT. The open-ended
   interview questions were guided by domains included in the fit-viability
   theory, an organizational-level innovation adoption framework, and those
   suggested by a review of the literature. Transcripts were analyzed using
   an inductive and comparative approach, which involved an open coding for
   relevant themes.
   Findings: Interviews described the state of OSS use in hospitals.
   Specifically, general OSS applications were widely used by IT
   professionals. In addition, hospitals using OSS HIT still relied heavily
   on vendor support. In terms of why decisions arose to use OSS HIT,
   several hospitals using OSS HIT noted the cost advantages. In contrast,
   hospitals avoiding OSS HIT were clear, OSS as a class did not fit with
   clinical work and posed too much risk.
   Practice Implications: Perceptions of OSS HIT ranged from enthusiastic
   embracement to resigned adoption, to refusal, to abandonment. Some
   organizations were achieving success with their OSS HIT choices, but
   they still relied on vendors for significant support. The decision to
   adopt OSS HIT was not uniform but contingent upon views of the risk
   posed by the technology, economic factors, and the hospital's existing
   capabilities.},

Title = {An informatics model for guiding assembly of telemicrobiology
   workstations for malaria collaborative diagnostics using commodity
   products and open-source software},
Journal = {MALARIA JOURNAL},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {8},
Month = {JUL 17},
Abstract = {Background: Deficits in clinical microbiology infrastructure exacerbate
   global infectious disease burdens. This paper examines how commodity
   computation, communication, and measurement products combined with
   open-source analysis and communication applications can be incorporated
   into laboratory medicine microbiology protocols. Those commodity
   components are all now sourceable globally. An informatics model is
   presented for guiding the use of low-cost commodity components and free
   software in the assembly of clinically useful and usable
   telemicrobiology workstations.
   Methods: The model incorporates two general principles: 1) collaborative
   diagnostics, where free and open communication and networking
   applications are used to link distributed collaborators for reciprocal
   assistance in organizing and interpreting digital diagnostic data; and
   2) commodity engineering, which leverages globally available consumer
   electronics and open-source informatics applications, to build generic
   open systems that measure needed information in ways substantially
   equivalent to more complex proprietary systems. Routine microscopic
   examination of Giemsa and fluorescently stained blood smears for
   diagnosing malaria is used as an example to validate the model.
   Results: The model is used as a constraint-based guide for the design,
   assembly, and testing of a functioning, open, and commoditized
   telemicroscopy system that supports distributed acquisition,
   exploration, analysis, interpretation, and reporting of digital
   microscopy images of stained malarial blood smears while also supporting
   remote diagnostic tracking, quality assessment and diagnostic process
   development.
   Conclusion: The open telemicroscopy workstation design and use-process
   described here can address clinical microbiology infrastructure deficits
   in an economically sound and sustainable manner. It can boost capacity
   to deal with comprehensive measurement of disease and care outcomes in
   individuals and groups in a distributed and collaborative fashion. The
   workstation enables local control over the creation and use of
   diagnostic data, while allowing for remote collaborative support of
   diagnostic data interpretation and tracking. It can enable global
   pooling of malaria disease information and the development of open,
   participatory, and adaptable laboratory medicine practices. The
   informatic model highlights how the larger issue of access to generic
   commoditized measurement, information processing, and communication
   technology in both high-and low-income countries can enable diagnostic
   services that are much less expensive, but substantially equivalent to
   those currently in use in high-income countries.},

Abstract = {Knowledge sharing is the key factor that influences the performance of
   open source software (OSS) projects, which are the representative cases
   of distributed innovation. This paper aims to explore the mechanism of

   innovation (independent variables) influences knowledge sharing
   (mediating variable) and then affects the performance of OSS projects
   (dependent variable) are tested and approved. On the one side, we argue
   that developers will actively affect knowledge sharing in terms of
   participative motivation, social network and organisational culture. On
   the other hand, users may also affect the knowledge sharing when
   considering innovation willingness and capacity. It is interesting to
   find that social network is the most important factor in Chinese cases.
   It is strongly recommended to strengthen the collaboration between

Journal = {COMPUTER PHYSICS COMMUNICATIONS},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {217},
Pages = {117-127},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {In this paper, we introduce an interactive coastal wave simulation and
   visualization software, called Celeris. Celeris is an open source
   software which needs minimum preparation to run on a Windows machine.
   The software solves the extended Boussinesq equations using a hybrid
   finite volume finite difference method and supports moving shoreline
   boundaries. The simulation and visualization are performed on the GPU
   using Direct3D libraries, which enables the software to run faster than
   real-time. Celeris provides a first-of-its-kind interactive modeling
   platform for coastal wave applications and it supports simultaneous
   visualization with both photorealistic and colormapped rendering
   capabilities. We validate our software through comparison with three
   standard benchmarks for non-breaking and breaking waves.
   Program summary
   Program title: Celeris

   Programming language: C++, HLSL
   Nature of problem: Boussinesq-type models provide the research-level
   accuracy needed for modeling wave propagation in coastal zones. However
   the current models, both commercial and open source, do not provide
   means for real-time computation, nor provide model interactivity and
   concurrent visualization. In order to achieve a real-time simulation
   speed in current parallelized models, dozens to hundreds of CPU cores
   are needed. Celeris is an interactive software which provides faster
   than real-time simulation and visualization speed on an average user
   laptop. The novelty of this software is its interactive environment,
   which allows the user to modify the model and field parameters as the
   model is running, and to see the effect of these changes immediately.
   Solution method: A hybrid finite volume-finite difference scheme is used
   to solve the extended Boussinesq equations. The solver is parallelized
   using shader programming with Direct3D libraries. Visualization is also
   performed with the same libraries. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights

Abstract = {Ensemble Kalman filter methods have been successfully applied for data
   assimilation and parameter estimation through inverse modeling in
   various scientific fields. We have developed a new generic software
   package for the solution of inverse problems implementing the Ensemble
   Smoother with Multiple Data Assimilation (genES-MDA). It is an
   open-source, platform-independent Python-based program. Its aim is to
   facilitate the management and configuration of the ES-MDA through
   several programming tools that help in the preparation of the different
   steps of ES-MDA. genES-MDA has a flexible workflow that can be easily
   adapted for the implementation of different variants of the ensemble
   Kalman filter and for the solution of generic inverse problems. This
   paper presents a description of the package and some application
   examples. genES-MDA has been tested in three synthetic case studies: the
   solution of the reverse flow routing for the estimation of the inflow
   hydrograph to a river reach using observed water levels and a calibrated
   forward model of the river system, the identification of a hydraulic
   conductivity field using piezometric observations and a known forward
   flow model, and the estimation of the release history of a contaminant
   spill in an aquifer from measured concentration data and a known flow
   and transport model. The results of all these tests have demonstrated
   the flexibility of genES-MDA and its capabilities to efficiently solve
   different types of inverse problems.},

Abstract = {Cilia are hair-like membrane protrusions that emanate from the surface
   of most vertebrate cells and are classified into motile and primary
   cilia. Motile cilia move fluid flow or propel cells, while also fulfill
   sensory functions. Primary cilia are immotile and act as a cellular
   antenna, translating environmental cues into cellular responses. Ciliary
   dysfunction leads to severe diseases, commonly termed ciliopathies. The
   molecular details underlying ciliopathies and ciliary function are,
   however, not well understood. Since cilia are small subcellular
   compartments, imaging-based approaches have been used to study them.
   However, tools to comprehensively analyze images are lacking. Automatic
   analysis approaches require commercial software and are limited to 2D
   analysis and only a few parameters. The widely used manual analysis
   approaches are time consuming, user-biased, and difficult to compare.
   Here, we present CiliaQ, a package of open-source, freely available, and
   easy-to-use ImageJ plugins. CiliaQ allows high-throughput analysis of 2D
   and 3D, static or time-lapse images from fluorescence microscopy of
   cilia in cell culture or tissues, and outputs a comprehensive list of
   parameters for ciliary morphology, length, bending, orientation, and
   fluorescence intensity, making it broadly applicable. We envision CiliaQ
   as a resource and platform for reproducible and comprehensive analysis
   of ciliary function in health and disease.},

Title = {Herding cats in a FOSS ecosystem: a tale of communication and
   coordination for release management},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF INTERNET SERVICES AND APPLICATIONS},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {8},
Month = {AUG 30},
Abstract = {Release management in large-scale software development projects requires
   significant communication and coordination. It is particularly
   challenging in Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) ecosystems, in which
   hundreds of loosely connected developers and their projects are
   coordinated to release software to a schedule. To better understand this
   process and its challenges, we analyzed over two and half years of
   communication in the GNOME ecosystem and studied developers'
   interactions. Through a case study, we cataloged communication channels,
   determined the main channel from which we categorized high level
   communication and coordination activities spanning five releases, and
   triangulated our results by interviewing ten key developers. We found
   that a release schedule, influence (instead of direct control), and
   diversity are the main factors that positively impact the release
   process in the GNOME ecosystem. We report a set of lessons learned that
   encapsulates our understanding of how the Release Management process
   function in a FOSS ecosystem, we learned that: (1) ensure that the
   release team follows the main communication channels used by developers,
   (2) provide a common place for coordination for an ecosystem, (3)
   consider including both good technical and social skills in a release
   team, (4) aim for a diverse release team, (5) based on lack of power,
   lobbying and consensus based management must be followed, (6) help the
   release team in the coordination process with a well defined schedule,
   and (7) release team work is different from regular software work. Our
   results can help organizations build better large-scale teams and show
   that research focused on individual projects might miss important parts
   of the picture.},

Abstract = {Keeping open-source software (OSS) up to date is one potential solution
   to prevent known vulnerabilities. However, it requires frequent and
   costly testing and may introduce compatibility issues. Consequently,
   developers often choose to backport security patches to the vulnerable
   versions instead. Manual backporting is time-consuming, especially for
   large OSS such as the Linux kernel. Therefore, automating this process
   is urgently needed to save considerable time. Existing automated
   approaches for backporting patches involve either automatic patch
   generation or automatic patch migration. However, these methods are
   often ineffective and error-prone since they failed to locate the
   precise patch locations or generate the correct patch, operating only on
   the syntactic level.
   In this paper, we propose a patch type-sensitive approach to
   automatically backport OSS security patches, guided by the patch type
   and patch semantics. Specifically, our approach identifies patch
   locations with the aid of program dependency graph-based matching at the
   semantic level. It further applies fine-grained patch migration and
   fine-tuning based on patch types. We have implemented our approach in a
   tool named TSBPORT and evaluated it on a large-scale dataset consisting
   of 1,815 pairs of real-world security patches for the Linux kernel. The
   evaluation results show that TSBPORT successfully backported 1,589
   (87.59\%) patches, out of which 587 (32.34\%) could not be backported by
   any state-of-the-art approaches, significantly outperforming
   state-of-the-art approaches. In addition, experiments also show that
   TSBPORT can be generalized to backport patches in other OSS projects
   with a success rate of 88.18\%.},

   compromised water sources. These factors are constantly changing as
   novel contaminants are introduced into surface water sources. As we are

   (CEC) is gaining ground. Whilst research is being conducted to identify
   contaminants in South African water sources, the research outputs and
   available information is not collated and presented to the science

Abstract = {Milkweed, a perennial plant that can adapt to adverse soil conditions,
   is being developed as an alternative crop.  Fiber characterization and
   potential market identification are critical to its development.  The
   most promising commercial use for milkweed floss is as a loose fill for
   jackets and comforters.  The purpose of this research was to evaluate
   milkweed floss as an insulative fill material and to compare its
   performance to other insulators.  Seven identical jackets were
   constructed using different fill materials matched on a per unit weight
   basis.  The insulation (clo) values for the jackets were measured using
   a standing, heated manikin in an environmental chamber.  Thickness
   (loft), compression, resiliency, and hand were also measured.  Several
   performance characteristics were evaluated before and after cleaning. 
   The results show that milkweed floss blended with down has insulative
   properties similar to down.  Down is superior to milkweed floss in
   loftiness and compressibility, which influence product performance, but
   the properties of milkweed floss can be enhanced by blending with down.},

Abstract = {Developers in complex, self-organized open-source projects often work on
   many different files, and over time switch focus between them. Shifting
   focus can have impact on the software quality and productivity, and is
   thus an important topic of investigation. In this paper, we study focus
   shifting patterns (FSPs) of developers by comparing trace data from a
   dozen open source software (OSS) projects of their longitudinal commit
   activities and file dependencies from the projects call graphs. Using
   information theoretic measures of network structure, we find that fairly
   complex focus-shifting patterns emerge, and FSPs in the same project are
   more similar to each other. We show that developers tend to shift focus
   along with, rather than away from, software dependency links described
   by the call graphs. This tendency becomes weaker as either the interval
   between successive commits, or the organizational distance between
   committed files (i.e. directory distance), gets larger. Interestingly,
   this tendency appears stronger with more productive developers.
   We hope our study will initiate interest in further understanding of
   FSPs, which can ultimately help to (1) improve current recommender
   systems to predict the next focus of developers, and (2) provide insight
   into better call graph design, so as to facilitate developers' work.},

Journal = {MICROMACHINES},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {14},

Month = {APR},
Abstract = {To improve the accuracy of deformation perception and shape
   reconstruction of flexible thin-walled structures, this paper proposes a
   method based on the combination of FOSS (fiber optic sensor system) and
   machine learning. In this method, the sample collection of strain
   measurement and deformation change at each measuring point of the
   flexible thin-walled structure was completed by ANSYS finite element
   analysis. The outliers were removed by the OCSVM (one-class support
   vector machine) model, and the unique mapping relationship between the
   strain value and the deformation variables (three directions of x-, y-,
   and z-axis) at each point was completed by a neural-network model. The
   test results show that the maximum error of the measuring point in the
   direction of the three coordinate axes: the x-axis is 2.01\%, the y-axis
   is 29.49\%, and the z-axis is 15.52\%. The error of the coordinates in
   the y and z directions was large, and the deformation variables were
   small, the reconstructed shape had good consistency with the deformation
   state of the specimen under the existing test environment. This method
   provides a new idea with high accuracy for real-time monitoring and
   shape reconstruction of flexible thin-walled structures such as wings,
   helicopter blades, and solar panels.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) has become a strategic asset for a number of
   reasons, such as short time-to-market software delivery, reduced
   development and maintenance costs, and its customization capabilities.
   Therefore, organizations are increasingly becoming OSS adopters, either
   as a result of a strategic decision or because it is almost unavoidable
   nowadays, given the fact that most commercial software also relies at
   some extent in OSS infrastructure. The way in which organizations adopt
   OSS affects and shapes their businesses. Therefore, knowing the impact
   of different OSS adoption strategies in the context of an organization
   may help improving the processes undertaken inside this organization and
   ultimately pave the road to strategic moves. In this paper, we propose
   to model OSS adoption strategies using a goal-oriented notation, in
   which different actors state their objectives and dependencies on each
   other. These models describe the consequences of adopting one such
   strategy or another: which are the strategic and operational goals that
   are supported, which are the resources that emerge, etc. The models rely
   on an OSS ontology, built upon a systematic literature review, which
   comprises the activities and resources that characterize these
   strategies. Different OSS adoption strategy models arrange these
   ontology elements in diverse ways. In order to assess which is the OSS
   adoption strategy that better fits the organization needs, the notion of
   model coverage is introduced, which allows to measure the degree of
   concordance among every strategy with the model of the organization by
   comparing the respective models. The approach is illustrated with an
   example of application in a big telecommunications company. (C) 2015

Abstract = {Academic institutions and research organisations are fast becoming very
   corporate in the design and setup of the workspace. There is an
   ever-present need for readily available information and sophisticated
   means of communication. As a result, information and communication
   technologies are being deployed for application in various fields of
   endeavour some of which include virtual offices. A virtual office is
   essentially a simulated corporate environment that gives subscribers
   access to collaborative work related features, which act as a means of
   improving the way work is carried out in an organisation. Several
   organisations opt for the software services rendered by virtual offices
   because of their cost effectiveness and tendency to boost the collective
   productivity of these organisations. For reasons as such, the existence
   of virtual office software suites have become rampant, but the
   availability of its services are at a cost. This paper reports the
   design and implementation of an Educational Virtual Office using Free
   and Open-Source Software (FOSS) to relieve corporate organisations of
   the costly burdens of existing proprietary virtual office software.
   Tools used in achieving this feat are Drupal Web Content Management
   System (WCMS), readily available FOSS and a couple of other freeware,
   intelligently integrated to form a composite suite.
   The developed educational virtual office suite was deployed in the
   Department of Electrical and Information Engineering of Covenant
   University. A usability (user satisfaction) test was conducted. Analysis
   of the test results showed that questions related to user satisfaction
   scored more ``Strongly Agree{''} and ``Agree{''} points than
   ``Disagree{''} and ``Strongly Disagree{''}. This is a pointer to the
   fact that features such as the GUI of the web application and its
   navigation proved to have little or no challenges as at when the tests
   were carried out. Deployment of the developed educational virtual office
   suite has the significant advantage of low cost in comparison with
   proprietary virtual office suites with similar functionality. The fact
   that the suite was developed entirely using FOSS gives it all the
   attendant advantages that accrue from the employment of same from the
   system design bottom-Up. Such advantages as easy access to source code,
   which engenders easy upgrade of the component parts, come naturally.},

Abstract = {Free and open source software (FOSS) movement essentially arises like
   answer to the evolution occurred in the market from the software,
   characterized by the closing of the source code. Furthermore, some FOSS
   characteristics, such as (1) the advance of this movement and (2) the
   attractiveness that contributes the voluntary and cooperative work, have
   increased the interest of the users towards free software.
   Traditionally, research in FOSS has focused on identifying individual
   personal motives for participating in the development of a FOSS project,
   analyzing specific FOSS solutions, or the FOSS movement itself.
   Nevertheless, the advantages of the FOSS for users and the effect of the
   demographic dimensions on user acceptance for FOSS have been two
   research topics with little attention. Specifically, this paper's aim is
   to focus on the influence of the user experience with FOSS the FOSS
   acceptance. Based on the literature, user experience is an essential
   demographic dimension for explaining the Information Systems acceptance.
   With this purpose, the authors have developed a research model based on
   the Technological Acceptance Model (TAM).},

Abstract = {The Internet of things ( IoT) has attracted a great deal of research and
   industry attention recently and is envisaged to support diverse emerging
   domains including smart cities, health informatics, and smart sensory
   platforms. Operating system (OS) support for IoT plays a pivotal role in
   developing scalable and interoperable applications that are reliable and
   efficient. IoT is implemented by both high-end and low-end devices that
   require OSs. Recently, the authors have witnessed a diversity of OSs
   emerging into the IoT environment to facilitate IoT deployments and
   developments. In this study, they present a comprehensive overview of
   the common and existing open-source OSs for IoT. Each OS is described in
   detail based on a set of designing and developmental aspects that they
   established. These aspects include architecture and kernel, programming
   model, scheduling, memory management, networking protocols support,
   simulator support, security, power consumption, and support for
   multimedia. They present a taxonomy of the current IoT open-source OSs.
   The objective of this survey is to provide a well structured guide to
   developers and researchers to determine the most appropriate OS for each
   specific IoT devices/applications based on their functional and
   non-functional requirements. They remark that this is the first such
   tutorial style paper on IoT OSs.},

Abstract = {With the vast development of various technologies, learning today is no
   longer confined to classrooms with lecture delivery as the only method
   of conveying knowledge, rather, an electronic means of learning has
   continued to evolve. Electronic learning (e-Learning), which facilitates
   education using communications networks, has made learning possible from
   anywhere at anytime using the Internet, wide area networks or local area
   networks. Notably, e-Learning applications which have now become central
   to the learning process may be developed using proprietary programming
   tools and the process of acquiring and using them to develop large
   software application is not only complex but require a huge sum of
   money. A viable alternative is to utilize the open source software
   platform that allows software engineers and institutions the right to
   reuse, study, distribute and localize to satisfy user's requirements.
   This paper provides an overview of e-Learning and the open source domain
   as well as discusses how open source can be used to speedily realizes
   the development of an e-Learning application in a web environment using
   an adaptive process. Specifically, the authors described their

   of an optimum subset of indicators leading to a group of latent patterns

Abstract = {Automation systems must primarily be deterministic and reliable,
   especially in safety-critical environments. With recent trends such as
   mass customization or Industry 4.0, there is an increasing need for
   automation systems to be dynamic. Changing parts of the software of
   today's automation systems, however, typically requires rebooting the
   controller, which makes software updates a complex and costly endeavor
   often despised by operators.
   This article presents an approach to updating the software of automation
   systems at runtime without disrupting the system's operation. This is
   achieved with a combination of a component-based architecture, cyclic
   application execution, and a state transfer mechanism between the
   original and the updated version of a component. We validate our
   solution with a case study in which we update the control algorithm of a
   magnetic levitation device running at cycles of 1 kHz without dropping
   the ball.},

Abstract = {In multiple research fields such as astronomy, bio-informatics,
   chem-informatics, geophysics and eco-informatics, scientists are
   increasingly turning to e-science and specifically scientific workflows
   as a way of improving, broadening, hastening and sharing their results.
   Enhanced collaboration, ad hoc access to tools, data and
   high-performance processing facilities are some of the gains to be made.
   Scientific workflows are concerned with, amongst others, supporting the
   repeatability and provenance of experiments. In context of three sets of
   research (wildfire research, flood modelling and the linking of disease
   outbreaks to multi-scale environmental conditions), we describe our
   efforts to provide geospatial capability for scientific workflow
   software environments to support researchers in exploring, integrating
   and visualising earth observation and geographic data in conjunction
   with other research data. We note that functionalities for data ingest
   (raster and vector), data transformation (reprojection and
   simplification), data export and spatial overlay operations commonly are
   required. We find a relative lack of support for geospatial data,
   services and these functions within several Free and Open Source
   Software (FOSS) scientific workflow packages. Furthermore, we highlight
   some software development and data encoding challenges faced when
   utilising various FOSS geospatial libraries within these scientific
   workflow environments. Finally, we offer suggestions for improving the
   integration of geospatial data as well as processing and analysis
   software tools into such environments.},

Abstract = {Organizational culture has been recognized as an influential factor
   affecting the successes and failures of usability work in organizations;
   however, there is a lack of research on organizational culture in open
   source software (OSS) development. This paper shows that there are
   different kinds of cultures in OSS development projects and builds
   propositions on the relationship between culture and usability work in
   OSS development projects. Partly those are derived from the literature,
   partly from an exploratory empirical inquiry. We speculate whether there
   is an ideal culture type for usability work in OSS development or
   whether usability work should be modified to fit the different cultures
   of OSS development projects.},

Abstract = {Using free software has been one of the discussion topics for time to
   time. There are several desktop environments available for nowadays
   modern GNU/Linux (hereinafter: Linux) distributions with different

   satisfied with current graphical user interfaces. We present a
   qualitative analysis of four different Linux distributions using
   different desktop environments. We find that most usable desktop is
   XFCE, then comes Mate, KDE and last one is LXDE. The results are a bit
   surprising as the LXDE is very similar to famous and recently widely
   used MS Windows XP. Our findings lead us into understanding that
   Microsoft has designed the past user experience of computer use and its
   user interface design is affecting also other operating systems based on

Abstract = {This paper analyses the phenomenon of free and open source software
   (FOSS) in the light of Luc Boltanski and Eve Chiapello's The new spirit
   of capitalism. It argues that collaborative FOSS production by volunteer
   software developers is a species of critical social practice in
   Boltanski and Chiapello's sense: rooted in resistance to capitalist
   social relations, and yet also a source of values that justify the new
   routes to profitability associated with contemporary network capitalism.
   Advanced via collective projects that are sustained by hacker norms and
   privately legislated copyleft' law, the FOSS ethos is apparently
   antithetical to private property-based accumulation. Yet it can be shown
   to embody the new spirit of capitalism' in its most distilled form;
   moreover FOSS developers have instituted new forms of property and new
   modes of profit creation around software that are in the process of
   being adapted for use in other economic sectors. Meanwhile, the private
   law constraints on profit-seeking that have emerged from the FOSS
   movement are counteracting some of the social pathologies that accompany
   network capitalism only to consolidate others. The paper concludes by
   identifying likely bases for a renewal of critique given these
   realities.},

Abstract = {Over the globe, efforts are being made to collect data and develop an
   adequate water resource information system for optimising its use. India
   is the largest consumer of water, with an estimated usage of around 300
   cubic kilometers per year. Punjab, a north-western state of India, is an
   example of severe crises aquifer depletion due to unconstrained
   consumption of groundwater, leading to degradation of its quantity as
   well as quality. Thus it is of great importance to compile up-to-date
   information about the water requirement for its appropriate and
   sustainable use. Remote sensing and geographic information system (GIS)
   are the technologies that can provide efficient and effective
   information system to tackle the water quality \& water supply planning
   parameters. Thus, under the present study, a web-enabled water resource
   information system has been developed in the GIS environment for the SAS
   (Sahibzada Ajit Singh) Nagar and Patiala districts of Punjab by using
   the open source software MS4W and pmapper. This system provides digital
   information of natural, such as drainage, and man-made features like
   roads, canals, and tube wells with their location and so on, and also
   provide information related to water level, water quality of wells, and
   well depth for the study area. Such an information system can be very
   helpful for the administrators and can serve as a decision support
   system for planners and policy makers so that the areas where problems
   related to water quality can be identified and focused upon. The system
   can provide an effective and meaningful direction for the planning and
   development of both districts.},

   provides access to near-real time data on PM concentration as well as
   additional background information. In an open data section, commented
   configuration files for the Web GIS client are being made available for

Abstract = {Governance has been highlighted as a key factor in the success of an
   Open Source Software (OSS) project. It is generally seen that in a mixed
   meritocracy and autocracy governance model, the decision-making (DM)
   responsibility regarding what features are included in the OSS is shared
   among members from select roles; prominently the project leader.
   However, less examination has been made whether members from these roles
   are also prominent in DM discussions and how decisions are made, to show
   they play an integral role in the success of the project. We believe
   that to establish their influence, it is necessary to examine not only
   discussions of proposals in which the project leader makes the
   decisions, but also those where others make the decisions. Therefore, in
   this study, we examine the prominence of members performing different
   roles in: (i) making decisions, (ii) performing certain social roles in
   DM discussions (e.g., discussion starters), (iii) contributing to the
   OSS development social network through DM discussions, and (iv) how
   decisions are made under both scenarios. We examine these aspects in the
   evolution of the well-known Python project. We carried out a data-driven
   longitudinal study of their email communication spanning 20 years,
   comprising about 1.5 million emails. These emails contain decisions for
   466 Python Enhancement Proposals (PEPs) that document the language's
   evolution. Our findings make the influence of different roles
   transparent to future (new) members, other stakeholders, and more
   broadly, to the OSS research community.},

Abstract = {The Free Software/Open Source movements have not only challenged the

   industry could be where to start. On one hand, China should take further
   measures to promote the development of free/open source software. On the
   other hand, China needs to scrutinize and reform relevant economic and
   legal systems and adjust strategy for international negotiations,
   strengthening antitrust enforcement against software monopoly and taking

Journal = {JOURNAL OF MEDICAL INTERNET RESEARCH},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {21},
Number = {6},
Month = {JUN 11},
Abstract = {Background: Analyzing process and outcome measures for all patients
   diagnosed with an infection in a hospital, including those suspected of
   having an infection, requires not only processing of large datasets but
   also accounting for numerous patient parameters and guidelines.
   Substantial technical expertise is required to conduct such rapid,
   reproducible, and adaptable analyses; however, such analyses can yield
   valuable insights for infection management and antimicrobial stewardship
   (AMS) teams.
   Objective: The aim of this study was to present the design, development,
   and testing of RadaR (Rapid analysis of diagnostic and antimicrobial
   patterns in R), a software app for infection management, and to
   ascertain whether RadaR can facilitate user-friendly, intuitive, and
   interactive analyses of large datasets in the absence of prior in-depth
   software or programming knowledge.
   Methods: RadaR was built in the open-source programming language R,
   using Shiny, an additional package to implement Web-app frameworks in R.
   It was developed in the context of a 1339-bed academic tertiary referral
   hospital to handle data of more than 180,000 admissions.
   Results: RadaR enabled visualization of analytical graphs and
   statistical summaries in a rapid and interactive manner. It allowed
   users to filter patient groups by 17 different criteria and investigate
   antimicrobial use, microbiological diagnostic use and results including
   antimicrobial resistance, and outcome in length of stay. Furthermore,
   with RadaR, results can be stratified and grouped to compare defined
   patient groups on the basis of individual patient features.
   Conclusions: AMS teams can use RadaR to identify areas within their
   institutions that might benefit from increased support and targeted
   interventions. It can be used for the assessment of diagnostic and
   therapeutic procedures and for visualizing and communicating analyses.
   RadaR demonstrated the feasibility of developing software tools for use
   in infection management and for AMS teams in an open-source approach,
   thus making it free to use and adaptable to different settings.},

Abstract = {Traditional Software Engineering courses commonly prioritize the
   teaching of methodologies and concepts in small and controlled
   environments. This decision is partly justified by the difficulty of
   bringing real software projects to the classroom. The ubiquity of Open
   Source Software (OSS) projects contributes to mitigating this problem.
   Several instructors already make use of contribution to OSS as part of
   the teaching and evaluation process in their courses. However, little is
   known about how students perceive the approach of contributing to OSS
   projects in the context of a Software Engineering course. This paper
   aims to uncover challenges and benefits from the students' perspective.
   To achieve this, we conducted14 semi-structured interviews with students
   who attended to this kind of courses in five different Brazilian
   universities, resulting in findings not so well known. For example, we
   noticed that, although instructors point to the projects that students
   are required to contribute to, students (and the project community) are
   involved in the process of choosing projects and tasks (issues). We also
   identified that students' contributions vary in terms of number of lines
   added and removed in commits, as well as the use of different
   programming languages.},

Year = {2020},

Abstract = {This study focuses on students' behavioral intention to use Open Source
   Software (OSS). The article examines how students, who were trained in
   OSS, are motivated to continue using it. A conceptual model based on
   Self-Determination Theory and the Technological Acceptance Model (TAM)
   was defined in order to test the behavioral intention to use OSS,
   comprising six constructs: (1) autonomy, (2) competence, (3)
   relatedness, (4) perceived ease of use, (5) perceived usefulness and (6)
   behavioral intention to use. A survey was designed for data collection.
   The participants were recent secondary school graduates, and all of them
   had received mandatory OSS training. A total of 352 valid responses were
   used to test the proposed structural model, which was performed using
   the Lisrel software. The results clearly confirmed the positive
   influence of the intrinsic motivations; autonomy and relatedness, to
   improve perceptions regarding the usefulness and ease of use of OSS,
   and; therefore, on behavioral intention to use OSS. In addition, the
   implications and limitations of this study are considered.},

   report of two cases},
Journal = {DENTOMAXILLOFACIAL RADIOLOGY},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {46},
Number = {1},
Abstract = {Objectives: To describe the use of open-source software for the
   post-processing of CBCT imaging for the assessment of periapical lesions
   development after endodontic treatment.
   Methods: CBCT scans were retrieved from endodontic records of two
   patients. Threedimensional virtual models, voxel counting, volumetric
   measurement (mm(3)) and mean intensity of the periapical lesion were
   performed with ITK-SNAP v. 3.0 software. Threedimensional models of the
   lesions were aligned and overlapped through the MeshLab software, which
   performed an automatic recording of the anatomical structures, based on
   the best fit. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of the changes in
   lesions size after treatment were performed with the 3DMeshMetric
   software.
   Results: The ITK-SNAP v. 3.0 showed the smaller value corresponding to
   the voxel count and the volume of the lesion segmented in yellow,
   indicating reduction in volume of the lesion after the treatment. A
   higher value of the mean intensity of the segmented image in yellow was
   also observed, which suggested new bone formation. Colour mapping and
   ``point value{''} tool allowed the visualization of the reduction of
   periapical lesions in several regions.
   Conclusions: Researchers and clinicians in the monitoring of endodontic
   periapical lesions have the opportunity to use open-source software.},

Title = {Towards a unified criteria model for usability evaluation in the context
   of open source software based on a fuzzy Delphi method},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {130},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Context: A plethora of models are available for open-source software
   (OSS) usability evaluation. However, these models lack consensus between
   scholars as well as standard bodies on a specific set of usability
   evaluation criteria. Retaining irrelevant criteria and omitting
   essential ones will mislead the direction of the usability evaluation.
   Objective: This study introduces a three-step method to develop a
   usability evaluation model in the context of OSS.
   Method: The fuzzy Delphi method has been employed to unify the usability
   evaluation criteria in the context of OSS. The first step in the method
   is the usability criteria analysis, which involves redefining and
   restructuring all collected usability criteria reported in the
   literature. The second step is fuzzy Delphi analysis, which includes the
   design and validates the fuzzy Delphi instrument and the utilisation of
   the fuzzy Delphi method to analyse the fuzziness consensus of experts'
   opinions on the usability evaluation criteria. The third step is the
   proposal of the OSS usability evaluation model.
   Results: A total of 124 usability criteria were identified, redefined,
   and restructured by creating groups of related meaning criteria. The
   result of the groupings generated 11 main criteria; the findings of the
   fuzzy Delphi narrowed down the criteria to only seven. The final set of
   criteria was sent back to the panellists for reconsideration of their
   responses. The panellists verified that these criteria are suitable in
   the evaluation of the usability of OSS.
   Discussion: The empirical analysis confirmed that the proposed
   evaluation model is acceptable in assessing the usability of OSS.
   Therefore, this model can be used as a reference metric for OSS
   usability evaluation which will have a practical benefit for the
   community in public and private organisations in helping the
   decision-maker to select the best OSS software package amongst the
   alternatives.},

   F/OSS migration initiatives, in total 30 experiences have been
   considered, 19 of which have been conducted by public administrations

   Open source migration projects is a recent research topic, more so when
   considering it from a managerial perspective. To overcome the lack of
   theoretical models an empirical approach relying on grounded theory has
   been adopted as this inductive approach allows theory building and
   hypothesis formulation.
   According to the results, migrating from proprietary into open source is
   dependent on contextual and organizational factors, as for example, the
   need of the change itself, the political support for the change, the
   suitability of IT, the organizational climate, the motivation of the
   human resources, the kind of leadership for the project or the firm
   complexity. Besides, migration efforts imply strategic and
   organizational consequences that the organization must evaluate well in

   important role in this scenario, because by imposing restrictions on the
   use of the source code it attracts potential contributors in a different
   way. The degree of restriction of the license and an indicator of
   success of free software were related: the time between stages, that is,
   the time spent to evolve through the various stages of development. The
   results indicated that projects licensed under non-restrictive terms
   progress faster than projects licensed under highly restrictive terms
   and that projects with restrictive licenses progress slower than
   projects with non-restrictive or highly restrictive licenses.},

Abstract = {As a software evolves its code requires constant updating. In this
   sense, refactoring edits aim at improving structural aspects of a code

   developers tend to combine in a single commit refactorings and
   behavior-changing edits (extra edits) - floss-refactoring.
   Floss-refactorings can be error-prone and require careful handling.
   However, little has been done to understand how refactorings and extra
   edits relate in practice. In this work, we propose a strategy for
   extracting floss-refactoring data. Moreover, we mine code repositories
   of 16 open-source projects and analyse commits with floss refactoring
   related to Extract Method. Our results show that developers often
   combine Extract Method with inner method extra edits (e.g., statement
   insert), with an expected increase of 8-16\% of extra edits by each
   Extract Method. Moreover, some statements are more likely to be changed
   depending on the extra edit performed.},

   The implementation of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) tried to

   his flock.{''} Within this scenario, this paper presents a website
   offering to students, and university community in general, the chance to
   enter into the analysis of an econometric model in an independent way.
   The produced material is basically made up of videos together with
   appropriate explanatory comments that show how to estimate and validate
   a general linear model by using specialized econometric software. The
   election of the econometric packages Gretl and R is not arbitrary but
   responds to the need to provide to students reliable tools that may be
   freely used in their professional future without being subject to
   licensing fees. The main goal is to focus on the learning process in the
   students providing them more than only pages filled with formulas (often
   incomprehensible to the student). We consider that this contribution
   leads to a learning methodology based on the student, combining
   education, research and innovation while improving the employability of
   our students, being some of the main priorities of the EHEA.},

   Cellulose was extracted by acidified sodium chlorite and sodium

   and extracted cellulose was performed by chemical composition analysis,
   Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron
   microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric
   analysis (TGA). The extracted cellulose had mainly a-cellulose as the
   other components hemicellulose and lignin were significantly removed
   during cellulose extraction process. The FTIR spectra also indicated
   that the chemical treatments extensively removed hemicellulose and
   lignin from the pristine milkweed floss. SEM technique was used to
   investigate the surface morphology of the pristine milkweed floss and
   extracted cellulose. The intensity of the crystalline peak in the X-ray
   diffractograms of the extracted cellulose was higher than that of
   pristine milkweed. Further, the XRD results indicated a structural
   transformation of cellulose I (pristine milkweed) to cellulose II
   (extracted cellulose) because of the chemical treatments. The extracted
   cellulose, which is a high biomass, had better thermal stability than
   the pristine milkweed floss owing to removal of non-cellulosic
   components.},

Abstract = {Tools and artifacts produced by open source software (OSS) have been
   woven into the foundation of the technology industry. To keep this
   foundation intact, the open source community needs to actively invest in
   sustainable approaches to bring in new contributors and nurture existing
   ones. We take a first step at this by collaboratively designing a
   maintainer dashboard that provides recommendations on how to attract and
   retain open source contributors. For example, by highlighting project
   goals (e.g., a social good cause) to attract diverse contributors and
   mechanisms to acknowledge (e.g., a ``rising contributor{''} badge)
   existing contributors. Next, we conduct a project-specific evaluation
   with maintainers to better understand use cases in which this tool will
   be most helpful at supporting their plans for growth. From analyzing
   feedback, we find recommendations to be useful at signaling projects as
   welcoming and providing gentle nudges for maintainers to proactively
   recognize emerging contributors. However, there are complexities to
   consider when designing recommendations such as the project current
   development state (e.g., deadlines, milestones, refactoring) and
   governance model. Finally, we distill our findings to share what the
   future of recommendations in open source looks like and how to make
   these recommendations most meaningful over time.},

Title = {Multifaceted formal methods and their interdisciplinary role - From the
   cathedral of `components as coalgebras' to the HCI context and the open
   source software bazaar},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF LOGICAL AND ALGEBRAIC METHODS IN PROGRAMMING},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {142},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {In this article we revisit the history of formal methods with a focus on
   important aspects that contribute to their interdisciplinary role. We
   consider: the variability of mathematical representation techniques on
   which the theoretical foundations of formal methods are based; formal
   methods multidisciplinarity; their capability to serve at a meta-level
   in providing the semantics of programming languages, specification and
   modelling languages as well as higher- level and domain-specific formal
   notations; and, finally, how some of these higher-level and
   domain-specific notations may be lifted at an interdisciplinary level.
   Within this historical review, we are inspired by Luis Barbosa's
   ``components as coalgebras{''} approach in seeing that the duality
   data-process is underlying all those aspects of formal methods. We also
   see that such a duality may not only be expressed in universal terms
   within category theory, but may also be characterised in practical terms
   and focused applications by two distinct logic paradigms, equational
   logic for the data and rewriting logic for the process, by two modelling
   directions, forward process definitions and backward data-driven process
   transformations, and by the distinction between syntax, defined by the
   data structures, and semantics, provided by rewrite rules. We use the
   Maude modelling language to illustrate the application of the data-
   process duality. In fact, Maude use equational logic to define data
   types and rewriting logic to express system evolution. Illustrative
   examples are from the areas of cognitive science and human- computer
   interaction (HCI). We then define a data-driven model transformation,
   which we call elaborative mining, , which adopts a backward perspective
   to recover a behaviour that was observed in real life but was not
   predicted forward by the original model. Finally, we see how the ``open
   source software bazaar{''}, which is a metaphor for the apparently
   chaotic open source development process, offers us a big data context to
   lift the driving process for model transformation from deterministic to
   statistical.},

Abstract = {The increasing digitalization of social life has substantially modified
   everyday practices, including teaching -learning processes. The aim of
   this article is to analyze digital reading in a free software
   educational community. The experience was carried out on April 22, 2023
   in the city of Cordoba (Argentina) with children of different ages in
   the Latin American Festival of Free Software Installation. Based on a
   qualitative methodology, with the incorporation of some ethnographic
   tools, data were collected from the reading situations observed in the
   intervention. We used the following theoretical foundations: ludic
   narratives and video games, digital reading in a hybrid context
   (coexistence of paper and screen) and free software in education. The
   data collected were analyzed with grounded theory procedures to
   construct the following categories of analysis of the digital reading
   comprehension of children: literal comprehension, inferential
   comprehension, inferential comprehension of literary elements and
   comprehension of the ludic structure and. We conclude that reading on
   screen mediated by free software shows a cognitive complexity that
   allows the critical review of the influence of GAFAMs in the educational
   community and that benefits the strengthening of the cultural mesh.},

Abstract = {This paper describes an innovative, accessible, and sustainable method
   for enhancing cultural heritage. Documenting and disseminating the
   public works heritage have now come of age, digitally speaking, with the
   adoption of new technologies both to further research on and heighten
   the esteem attributed to the public works heritage. Nonetheless,
   academic discourse rarely describes procedures for the 3D digitisation
   of heritage works comprehensible to non-expert readers with limited
   resources. Taking that premise as a starting point, with special
   attention to the determinants of the public works heritage, this article
   aims to define the general, open-source methodology covering 3D model
   data capture, information processing and optimisation. The article also
   discusses model dissemination strategies using free platforms and
   low-cost tools. The general discussion is illustrated with the case
   study of Ariza Bridge in Spain. This Renaissance-style structure dates
   from the second half of the sixteenth century. Despite its listing as a
   cultural heritage asset, the monument was flooded by the Giribaile
   reservoir waters in 1998 and is now only wholly visible during droughts.
   The application, developed with open-source software and implemented
   with free platforms and low-cost tools, features geo-referencing and is
   designed to be accessible to non-expert users. The methodology proposed
   is intended as a suitable instrument for the sustainable study,
   valorisation and dissemination of the built heritage.},

   buildings: experiences from the Italian Seismic Observatory of
   Structures (OSS) network},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CIVIL STRUCTURAL HEALTH MONITORING},
Year = {2024},
Month = {2024 SEP 10},
Abstract = {The paper presents an in-depth analysis of the ambient dynamic behavior
   of nine masonry buildings monitored by the Italian Seismic Observatory
   of Structures (OSS). Addressing a significant knowledge gap affecting
   this structural type, the study reveals how daily and seasonal
   fluctuations in environmental factors have a notable influence on its
   experimental modal parameters. A robust frequency-domain tracking
   algorithm is first developed to identify and follow the evolution of
   modal parameters over time, exploiting ambient vibration recordings
   acquired at sub-daily intervals on the structures. The procedure is
   systematically applied to the entire portfolio of case-study buildings
   and, in the first year of training, integrated with measurements of
   environmental parameters provided by nearby weather stations. The
   multivariate regression analysis indicates that temperature variation is
   the primary driver of the observed wandering of natural frequencies. The
   frequency-temperature relationship shows a positive correlation above
   zero degrees and, in several cases, a significant degree of nonlinearity
   already present in low-frequency global modes. Simple predictive models
   are proposed to address such nonlinear behavior, including freezing
   conditions and accounting for internal heating during winter. Leveraging
   these novel insights, the work develops strategies to improve the
   efficiency of data acquisition protocols and training periods, enabling
   the near-future extension of real-time condition assessment
   methodologies to the entire OSS network.},

Abstract = {Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has drawn extensive attention with
   some features including visible-light response as non-metallic
   semiconductor, low cost in raw material and green pollution-free for
   environment, but suffers from some issues such as fast charge carriers'
   recombination, easy aggregation, etc. In this work, the 1D-2D
   HNTs\&g-C3N4-X binary materials similar to meat floss pattern in a
   series of halloysite loading amounts are designed via a facile
   electrostatic self-assembly strategy with debris g-C3N4 after cell
   pulverizing treatment and HNTs that outwardly modified by
   cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as the building blocks. The
   halloysite-mediated satellite-core material displays a photocatalytic of
   H-2 evolution performance with the highest evolution rate of 137.0 mu
   mol g(-1) h(-1) in visible light condition with no co-catalysts, and is
   similar to 3.4 times that of bulk g-C3N4, mainly benefiting from the
   reduced nanometer size of debris g-C3N4 and enhanced interface
   dispersion ability by HNTs, resulting in ameliorative separation
   efficiency of photogenerated charge carriers. This research conclusively
   provides the new perspective towards the performance enhancement of
   water splitting of g-C3N4 in raw clay mineral modification mode and
   broadens the applications of mineral-based composite in the renewable

Abstract = {This study brings together findings about two contexts of sharing in
   order to explore the meaning of the word in the digital environment.
   First, this study is based on ethnographic research of free software
   projects and uses the resulting thick description to determine the
   meaning of sharing in this context. Second, the current literature on
   sharing usually takes user-generated content (UGC) platforms as its
   empirical reference, resulting in identifying a distinct meaning of
   sharing in this context. By combining the two sets of findings into a
   single narrative, this study makes three points: (1) the academic
   discourse on free software conceptualizing it as a form of gift-giving
   antithetical to the ways of capitalist production needs to be revised;
   (2) the use of sharing in the context of UGC platforms relies heavily on
   references to the culture of free software; (3) although representatives
   from both contexts claim to be taking part in the same sharing
   practices, there are substantial differences in the type of information
   being shared, the explicitness of the sharing mechanisms, and the
   organizational context of monetization of the shared objects.},

Abstract = {Nowadays, the adoption of Open Source Software (OSS) by organizations is
   becoming a strategic need in a wide variety of application areas.
   Organizations adopt OSS in very diverse ways. The way in which they
   adopt OSS affects and shapes their businesses. Therefore, knowing the
   impact of different OSS adoption strategies in the context of an
   organization may help improving the processes undertaken inside this
   organization and ultimately pave the road to strategic moves. However,
   there is a lack of support for assessing the impact of the OSS adoption
   over the business of the adopter organizations. Based on the
   goal-oriented characterization of some OSS adoption strategies, in this
   paper, we propose a preliminary approach to assess the business impact
   of the OSS adoption strategies over the adopter organizations. The
   proposal is based on the Business Model Canvas and graph theory notions
   to support the elicitation and assessment of the impact of each goal
   over the adopter organization. We illustrate the application of the
   approach in the context of a telecommunications company.},

Abstract = {In today's world, management often rely on FLOSS (Free/Libre/Open Source

   FLOSS is different from the software they have been using in the last
   decades. Its development model is distributed, and its authors are

   In this paper, the authors want to shed some light on how to evaluate a
   FLOSS system by looking at the Moodle platform, which is currently the
   most used learning management system among educational institutions
   worldwide. In contrast with other evaluation models that have been
   proposed so far, the one presented here is based on retrieving
   historical information that can be obtained publicly from the Internet,
   allowing the authors to study its evolution. As a result, they will show
   how using their methodology management can take informed decisions that
   lower the risk that organizations face when investing in a FLOSS system.},

Abstract = {The development of open source software (OSS) is a broad field which
   requires diverse skill sets. For example, maintainers help lead the
   project and promote its longevity, technical writers assist with
   documentation, bug reporters identify defects in software, and
   developers program the software. However, it is unknown which skills are
   used in OSS development as well as OSS contributors' general attitudes
   towards skills in OSS. In this paper, we address this gap by
   administering a survey to a diverse set of 455 OSS contributors. Guided
   by these responses as well as prior literature on software development
   expertise and social factors of OSS, we develop a model of skills in OSS
   that considers the many contexts OSS contributors work in. This model
   has 45 skills in the following 9 categories: technical skills, working
   styles, problem solving, contribution types, project-specific skills,
   interpersonal skills, external relations, management, and
   characteristics. Through a mix of qualitative and quantitative analyses,
   we find that OSS contributors are actively motivated to improve skills
   and perceive many benefits in sharing their skills with others. We then
   use this analysis to derive a set of design implications and best
   practices for those who incorporate skills into OSS tools and platforms,
   such as GitHub.},

Abstract = {Some free, open-source software projects have been around for quite a
   long time, the longest living ones dating from the early 1980s. For some
   of them, detailed information about their evolution is available in
   source code management systems tracking all their code changes for
   periods of more than 15 years. This paper examines in detail the
   evolution of one of such projects, glibc, with the main aim of
   understanding how it evolved and how it matched Lehman's laws of
   software evolution. As a result, we have developed a methodology for
   studying the evolution of such long-lived projects based on the
   information in their source code management repository, described in
   detail several aspects of the history of glibc, including some activity
   and size metrics, and found how some of the laws of software evolution
   may not hold in this case. (C) 2013 The Authors. Journal of Software:

Abstract = {Benchmarks are important in research to evaluate proposed approaches and
   works. In many fields such as information processing and retrieval, they
   rely on datasets composed of training and test sub-datasets. In the
   recommendation field, some benchmarks do exist for various types of
   information. However, no dataset is dedicated to Open Source Software
   (OSS). The aim of this paper is to create a first benchmark specific to
   OSS, which may be used in evaluating different algorithms recommending
   OSS. To reach this aim, we designed the structure of the dataset by
   studying OSS characteristics and we mined both SourceForge and Github
   repositories in order to constitute the data collection. We then
   proceeded to the evaluation step by running a set of well-known
   recommendation algorithms within Recommender101 and Librec frameworks on
   the OSS dataset. The obtained benchmark may serve as a basis for any
   future work about OSS recommendation by either extending the dataset, or
   evaluating and comparing new algorithms.},

Abstract = {Creating a successful and sustainable Open Source Software (OSS) project
   often depends on the strength and the health of the community behind it.
   Current literature explains the contributors' lifecycle, starting with
   the motivations that drive people to contribute and barriers to joining
   OSS projects, covering developers' evolution until they become core
   members. However, the stages when developers leave the projects are
   still weakly explored and are not well-defined in existing developers'
   lifecycle models. In this position paper, we enrich the knowledge about
   the leaving stage by identifying sleeping and dead states, representing
   temporary and permanent brakes that developers take from contributing.
   We conducted a preliminary set of semi-structured interviews with active
   developers. We analyzed the answers by focusing on defining and
   understanding the reasons for the transitions to/from sleeping and dead
   states. This paper raises new questions that may guide further
   discussions and research, which may ultimately benefit OSS communities.},

Abstract = {Continuous fuzzing is an increasingly popular technique for automated
   quality and security assurance. Google maintains OSS-Fuzz: a continuous
   fuzzing service for open source software. We conduct the first empirical
   study of OSS-Fuzz, analyzing 23,907 bugs found in 316 projects. We
   examine the characteristics of fuzzer-found faults, the lifecycles of
   such faults, and the evolution of fuzzing campaigns over time. We find
   that OSS-Fuzz is often effective at quickly finding bugs, and developers
   are often quick to patch them. However, flaky bugs, timeouts, and out of
   memory errors are problematic, people rarely file CVEs for security
   vulnerabilities, and fuzzing campaigns often exhibit punctuated
   equilibria, where developers might be surprised by large spikes in bugs
   found. Our findings have implications on future fuzzing research and
   practice.},

Abstract = {Social networks in Free/Open Source Software (F/OSS) have been usually
   analyzed at the level of the single project e.g., {[}6], or at the level
   of a whole ecology of projects, e.g., {[}33]. In this paper, we also
   investigate the social network generated by developers who collaborate
   to one or multiple F/OSS projects, but we focus on the less-studied
   meso-level structure emerging when applying to this network a
   community-detection technique. The network of `communities' emerging
   from this analysis links sub-groups of densely connected developers,
   sub-groups that are smaller than the components of the network but
   larger than the teams working on single projects. Our results reveal the
   complexity of this meso-level structure, where several dense sub-groups
   of developers are connected by sparse collaboration among different
   sub-groups. We discuss the theoretical implications of our findings with
   reference to the wider literature on collaboration networks and
   potential for innovation. We argue that the observed empirical
   meso-structure in F/OSS collaboration network resembles that associated
   to the highest levels of innovativeness.},

Abstract = {The free culture and FOSS (Free Open Source Software) movements aren't
   new concepts, proof of that is the increasing number of projects
   following this kind of philosophy. However common users tend to avoid

   proprietary solutions. Although people understand philosophy behind such
   concepts, they tend to avoid using FOSS in fear of it not meeting their
   needs.
   A project aiming to prove that free alternatives such as FOSS are a
   worthy alternative was born. A videogame was made from the ground up
   using only FOSS and Freeware solutions, along with free assets made
   available to the community for free, filling the gaps where the team had
   no expert to solve (such as sound effects). During the development of
   this project, several aspects of the software being used were analyzed
   in order to better discern the advantages and disadvantages of using
   these free alternatives.},

   this mix best fits our needs. Other projects can benefit from the
   lessons we learned during the reorganization of our knowledge base and

   labor-intensive and time-consuming.},

Abstract = {Community dynamics play an important role in the Open Source Software
   (OSS) development paradigm. Researchers have extensively studied the
   human aspects of the OSS paradigm from the point of view of community
   formation to community evolution. A few studies relate community
   dynamics with OSS product attributes such as code quality. However, the
   impact of community dynamics on non-code contributions such as commits
   has not been explored. In this paper, the aim is to analyze the impact
   of community dynamics on syntactic quality of commit messages of an OSS
   project. We first propose and validate a commit message quality model,
   and then use that model to analyze the OSS projects. Empirical analysis
   of seven OSS projects available in the Git repository shows that a small
   group of contributors active at the same time in a project leads to high
   syntactic quality contributions. These observations may prove useful to
   developers as well as project managers who need quantifiable techniques
   for monitoring the OSS projects.},

Abstract = {Many Open Source Software (OSS) projects are moving form Centralized
   Version Control (CVC) to Distributed Version Control (DVC). The effect
   of this shift on project organization and developer collaboration is not
   well understood. In this paper, we use a theoretical argument to
   evaluate the appropriateness of using DVC in the context of two very
   common organization forms in OSS: a dictatorship and a peer group. We
   find that DVC facilitates large hierarchical communities as well as
   smaller groups of developers, while CVC allows for consensus-building by
   a peer group. We also find that the flexibility of DVC systems allows
   for diverse styles of developer collaboration. With CVC, changes flow up
   and down (and publicly) via a central repository. In contrast, DVC
   facilitates collaboration in which work output can flow sideways (and
   privately) between collaborators, with no repository being inherently
   more important or central. These sideways flows are a relatively new
   concept. Developers on the Linux project, who tend to be experienced DVC
   users, cluster around ``sandboxes:{''} repositories where developers can
   work together on a particular topic, isolating their changes from other
   developers. In this work, we focus on two large, mature OSS projects to
   illustrate these findings. However, we suggest that social media sites
   like GitHub may engender other original styles of collaboration that
   deserve further study.},

Title = {Vulnerabilities and Security Patches Detection in OSS: A Survey},
Journal = {ACM COMPUTING SURVEYS},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {57},
Number = {1},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Over the past decade, Open Source Software (OSS) has experienced rapid
   growth and widespread adoption, attributed to its openness and
   editability. However, this expansion has also brought significant
   security challenges, particularly introducing and propagating software
   vulnerabilities. Despite the use of machine learning and formal methods
   to tackle these issues, there remains a notable gap in comprehensive
   surveys that summarize and analyze both Vulnerability Detection (VD) and
   Security Patch Detection (SPD) in OSS. This article seeks to bridge this
   gap through an extensive survey that evaluates 127 technical studies
   published between 2014 and 2023, structured around the
   Vulnerability-Patch lifecycle. We begin by delineating the six critical
   events that constitute the Vulnerability-Patch lifecycle, leading to an
   in-depth exploration of the Vulnerability-Patch ecosystem. We then
   systematically review the databases commonly used in VD and SPD, and
   analyze their characteristics. Subsequently, we examine existing VD
   methods, focusing on traditional and deep learning based approaches.
   Additionally, we organize current security patch identification methods
   by kernel type and discuss techniques for detecting the presence of
   security patches. Based on our comprehensive review, we identify open
   research questions and propose future research directions that merit
   further exploration.},

   difficult. The concept of ``trust{''} in social networking has been
   successfully applied to facilitate choice in similar situations. We
   propose a social network-based approach to quality assessment and
   evaluation of F/OSS applications. The proposed system utilises the
   community formed around F/OSS projects to produce meaningful
   recommendations based on specific user preferences. We suggest that such
   an approach would overcome some of the difficulties complicating user
   choice by making useful suggestions and can fit seamlessly within the
   structure of the majority of F/OSS projects. The main focus of this work
   is on the end users of free and open source software and not on the
   developers of the software. The social network-based approach would
   apply differently to these different user classes.},

Abstract = {Tools and artifacts produced by open source software (OSS) have been
   woven into the foundation of the technology industry. To keep this
   foundation intact, the open source community needs to actively invest in
   sustainable approaches to bring in new contributors and nurture existing
   ones. We take a first step at this by collaboratively designing a
   maintainer dashboard that provides recommendations on how to attract and
   retain open source contributors. For example, by highlighting project
   goals (e.g., a social good cause) to attract diverse contributors and
   mechanisms to acknowledge (e.g., a ``rising contributor{''} badge)
   existing contributors. Next, we conduct a project-specific evaluation
   with maintainers to better understand use cases in which this tool will
   be most helpful at supporting their plans for growth. From analyzing
   feedback, we find recommendations to be useful at signaling projects as
   welcoming and providing gentle nudges for maintainers to proactively
   recognize emerging contributors. However, there are complexities to
   consider when designing recommendations such as the project current
   development state (e.g., deadlines, milestones, refactoring) and
   governance model. Finally, we distill our findings to share what the
   future of recommendations in open source looks like and how to make
   these recommendations most meaningful over time.},

   A Bibliometric, Comparative Analysis Among the United States, EU-28

Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {-Omics systems sciences are at the epicenter of personalized medicine
   and public health, and drivers of knowledge-based biotechnology
   innovation. Bioinformatics, a core component of omics research, is one
   of the disciplines that first employed Free/Libre Open Source Software
   (FLOSS), and thus provided a fertile ground for its further development.
   Understanding the use and characteristics of FLOSS deployed in the omics
   field is valuable for future innovation strategies, policy and funding
   priorities. We conducted a bibliometric, longitudinal study of the use
   of FLOSS in sepsis omics research from 2011 to 2015 in the United
   States, EU-28 and China. Because sepsis is an interdisciplinary field at
   the intersection of multiple omics technologies and medical specialties,
   it was chosen as a model innovation ecosystem for this empirical
   analysis, which used publicly available data. Despite development of and
   competition from proprietary commercial software, scholars in omics
   continue to employ FLOSS routinely, and independent of the type of omics
   technology they work with. The number of articles using FLOSS increased
   significantly over time in the EU-28, as opposed to the United States
   and China (R=0.96, p=0.004). Furthermore, in an era where sharing of
   knowledge is being strongly advocated and promoted by public agencies
   and social institutions, we discuss possible correlations between the
   use of FLOSS and various funding sources in omics research. These
   observations and analyses provide new insights into the use of FLOSS in
   sepsis omics research across three (supra)national regions. Further
   benchmarking studies are warranted for FLOSS trends in other omics
   fields and geographical settings. These could, in time, lead to the
   development of new composite innovation and technology use metrics in
   omics systems sciences and bioinformatics communities.},

   Furthermore, these concerns are intensified when the OSS is to take part
   in critical sections of the evolved system. Using a complex case study

   defines four metrics from muti-dimensions, including collaboration

Abstract = {The purpose of this article is to explain the design and implementation
   of an open-source engineering education software called Stochastic
   Theory Education through Visualization Environment (STEVE), version 2.0.
   In an earlier article, a proof-of-concept for a computer-aided
   visualization tool (also named STEVE, version 1.0) for stochastic theory
   education in water resources engineering was articulated {[}see, Schwenk
   et al. Comput. Appl. Eng. Educ., 2008, in press). Using lava Native
   Interfacing, it was shown that STEVE 1.0 could wrap a space time
   stochastic model written in any computer language and be independent of
   any specific language compiler during tool usage. This article describes
   the general philosophy, software design, and classroom usage for STEVE
   with significant improvements on visualization and user-friendliness
   (hence, rightfully called version 2.0). The software was created using
   the C++ programming language with the Microsoft Windows Applications
   Programming Interface (API). OpenGL was used for the visualization
   display, and the OpenGL Utility Toolkit (GLUT) was used to visualize
   text inside the OpenGL window. The instructor-specified simulation
   program on stochastic theory was written in Fortran 77. The application
   has user-friendly options for modifying input data and parameter
   specifications as desired by the instructor or the student user. STEVE
   2.0 has been tested with the Windows XP and Windows Vista operating
   systems. For the benefit of interested users and software makers, we
   also provide the software application, a short tutorial and all
   pertinent source codes as freeware for download on our STEVE homepage at

Abstract = {In this work, an omnidirectional sensor that enables identification of
   the direction of the celestial sphere with maximum solar irradiance is
   presented. The sensor, based on instantaneous measurements, functions as
   a position server for dual-axis solar trackers in photovoltaic plants.
   The proposed device has been developed with free software and hardware,
   which makes it a pioneering solution because it is open and accessible
   as well as capable of being improved by the scientific community,
   thereby contributing to the rapid advancement of technology. In
   addition, the device includes an algorithm developed ex professo that
   makes it possible to predetermine the regions of the celestial sphere
   for which, according to the geometric characteristics of the PV plant,
   there would be shading between the panels. In this way, solar trackers
   do not have to locate the Sun's position at all times according to
   astronomical models, while taking into account factors such as shadows
   or cloudiness that also affect levels of incident irradiance on solar
   collectors. Therefore, with this device, it is possible to provide
   photovoltaic plants with dual-axis solar tracking with a low-cost device
   that helps to optimise the trajectory of the trackers and, consequently,
   their radiative capture and energy production.},

Journal = {COMPARATIVE AND FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS},
Year = {2007},
Pages = {1-7},
Abstract = {The large amounts of EST sequence data available from a single species
   of an organism as well as for several species within a genus provide an
   easy source of identification of intra-and interspecies single
   nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). In the case of model organisms, the
   data available are numerous, given the degree of redundancy in the
   deposited EST data. There are several available bioinformatics tools
   that can be used to mine this data; however, using them requires a
   certain level of expertise: the tools have to be used sequentially with
   accompanying format conversion and steps like clustering and assembly of
   sequences become time-intensive jobs even for moderately sized datasets.
   We report here a pipeline of open source software extended to run on
   multiple CPU architectures that can be used to mine large EST datasets
   for SNPs and identify restriction sites for assaying the SNPs so that
   cost-effective CAPS assays can be developed for SNP genotyping in
   genetics and breeding applications. At the International Crops Research
   Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), the pipeline has been
   implemented to run on a Paracel high-performance system consisting of
   four dual AMD Opteron processors running Linux with MPICH. The pipeline
   can be accessed through user-friendly web interfaces at
   http://hpc.icrisat.cgiar.org/PBSWeb and is available on request for
   academic use. We have validated the developed pipeline by mining
   chickpea ESTs for interspecies SNPs, development of CAPS assays for SNP
   genotyping, and confirmation of restriction digestion pattern at the
   sequence level. Copyright (C) 2007.},

Abstract = {The Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon, namely urban areas where the
   atmospheric temperature is significantly higher than in the surrounding
   rural areas, is currently a very well-known topic both in the scientific
   community and in public debates. Growing urbanization is one of the
   anthropic causes of UHI. The UHI phenomenon has a negative impact on the
   life quality of the local population (thermal discomfort, summer thermal
   shock, etc.), thus investigations and analyses on this topic are really
   useful and important for correct and sustainable urban planning; this
   study is included in this context. A multi-temporal analysis was
   performed in the municipality of Modena (Italy) to identify and estimate
   the Surface Urban Heat Island (SUHI, strictly correlated to the UHI
   phenomenon) from 2014 to 2017. For this purpose, Landsat-8 satellite
   images were processed with Quantum Geographic Information System (QGIS)
   to obtain the Land Surface Temperature (LST) and the Normalized
   Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). For every pixel, LST and NDVI values
   of three regions of interest (ROI, i.e., Countryside, Suburbs, and City
   Center) were extracted and their correlations were investigated. A
   maximum variation of 6.4 degrees C in the LST values between City Center
   and Countryside was highlighted, confirming the presence of the SUHI
   phenomenon even in a medium-sized municipality like Modena. The
   implemented procedure demonstrates that satellite data are suitable for
   SUHI identification and estimation, therefore it could be a useful tool
   for public administration for urban planning policies.},

Abstract = {This work assesses sea-level rise impact using three different models
   created on Free and Open-Source Software for Geographic Information
   System to help coastal managers in the initial stages. The End Point
   Rate for QGIS (EPR4Q) computes a coastline projection using the End
   Point Rate method. The Uncertainty Bathtub Model (uBTM) analyses the
   effects of sea-level rise through the uncertainty of sea-level
   projections and the vertical error of the Digital Elevation/Terrain
   Model. The Bruun Rule for Google Earth Engine Model (BRGM) predicts the
   position of the shoreline with sea-level rise, using topographic and
   bathymetric data from Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Coastal Modeling
   System, respectively. Based on the regional projections of the Special
   Report on Climate Change and Oceans and Cryosphere of the
   Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the models were applied to a
   study case on the coast of Rio Grande do Sul-Brazil under different
   scenarios of sea-level rise expected by the end of this century. The
   results showed a maximum coastal retreat for the year 2100 of -502 m and
   -1727 m using EPR4Q and BRGM, respectively. The uBTM with Mapbiomas land
   use showed a maximum of 44.57 km(2) of urban area affected by sea-level
   flooding. This study highlights the feasibility of conducting coastal
   management analysis in GIS environment using non-commercial software.

Abstract = {Cross-cornrnunity collaboration can exploit the expertise and knowledges
   of crowds in different communities. Recently increasing users in open
   source software (OSS) community like Citllub attempt to gather software
   requirements from question and answer (Q\&A) communities such as Stack
   Overflow (SO). In order to investigate this emerging crosscommunity
   collaboration phenomenon, the paper presents an exploratory study on
   cross-community requirements gathering of OSS projects in Cialut. We
   manually sample 3266 practice cases and quantitatively analyze the
   popularity of the phenomenon, the characteristics of the gathered
   requirements, and cross-community collaboration behaviors of users.
   Sonic important findings are obtained: more than half of the
   requirements gathered from SO are enhancements and the majority of the
   gathered requirements are non-functional requirements. In addition, 055
   developers can directly obtain related solutions and contributions of
   the gathered requirements from SO in the gathering process.},

Title = {Empowering High-Throughput High-Content Analysis of Microphysiological
   Models: Open-Source Software for Automated Image Analysis of Microvessel
   Formation and Cell Invasion},
Journal = {CELLULAR AND MOLECULAR BIOENGINEERING},
Year = {2024},
Month = {2024 OCT 10},
Abstract = {PurposeThe primary aim of this study was to develop an open-source
   Python-based software for the automated analysis of dynamic cell
   behaviors in microphysiological models using non-confocal microscopy.
   This research seeks to address the existing gap in accessible tools for
   high-throughput analysis of endothelial tube formation and cell invasion
   in vitro, facilitating the rapid assessment of drug
   sensitivity.MethodsOur approach involved annotating over 1000 2 mm
   Z-stacks of cancer and endothelial cell co-culture model and training
   machine learning models to automatically calculate cell coverage, cancer
   invasion depth, and microvessel dynamics. Specifically, cell coverage
   area was computed using focus stacking and Gaussian mixture models to
   generate thresholded Z-projections. Cancer invasion depth was determined
   using a ResNet-50 binary classification model, identifying which
   Z-planes contained invaded cells and measuring the total invasion depth.
   Lastly, microvessel dynamics were assessed through a U-Net
   Xception-style segmentation model for vessel prediction, the DisPerSE
   algorithm to extract an embedded graph, then graph analysis to quantify
   microvessel length and connectivity. To further validate our software,
   we reanalyzed an image set from a high-throughput drug screen involving
   a chemotherapy agent on a 3D cervical and endothelial co-culture model.
   Lastly, we applied this software to two naive image datasets from
   coculture lumen and microvascular fragment models.ResultsThe software
   accurately measured cell coverage, cancer invasion, and microvessel
   length, yielding drug sensitivity IC50 values with a 95\% confidence
   level compared to manual calculations. This approach significantly
   reduced the image processing time from weeks down to h. Furthermore, the
   software was able to calculate cell coverage, microvessel length, and
   invasion depth from two additional microphysiological models that were
   imaged with confocal microscopy, highlighting the versatility of the
   software.ConclusionsOur free and open source software offers an
   automated solution for quantifying 3D cell behavior in
   microphysiological models assessed using non-confocal microscopy,
   providing the broader Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering community
   with an alternative to standard confocal microscopy paired with
   proprietary software.This software can be found in our GitHub

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) evolution is an important research domain,
   and it is continuously getting more and more attention of researchers. A
   large number of studies are published on different aspects of OSS
   evolution. Different metrics, models, processes and tools are presented
   for predicting the evolution of OSS studies. These studies foster
   researchers for contemporary and comprehensive review of literature on
   OSS evolution prediction. We present a systematic mapping that covers
   two contexts of OSS evolution studies conducted so far, i.e., OSS
   evolution prediction and OSS evolution process support. We selected 98
   primary studies from a large dataset that includes 56 conference, 35
   journal and 7 workshop papers. The major focus of this systematic
   mapping is to study and analyze metrics, models, methods and tools used
   for OSS evolution prediction and evolution process support. We
   identified 20 different categories of metrics used by OSS evolution
   studies and results show that SLOC metric is largely used. We found 13
   different models applied to different areas of evolution prediction and
   auto-regressive integrated moving average models are largely used by
   researchers. Furthermore, we report 13 different
   approaches/methods/tools in existing literature for the evolution
   process support that address different aspects of evolution.},

Abstract = {Microbial colonization, followed by succession, on newly exposed
   volcanic substrates represents the beginning of the development of an
   early ecosystem. During early succession colonization by mosses or
   plants significantly alters the pioneer microbial community composition
   through the photosynthetic carbon input. To provide further insights
   into this process, we investigated the three-year-old volcanic deposits
   of Mount Merapi, Indonesia. Samples were collected from unvegetated
   (BRD) and moss-covered (BRUD) sites. Forest site soil (FRS) near the
   volcanic deposit-covered area was also collected for reference. An
   analysis of BRD and BRUD revealed high culturable cell densities
   (1.7-8.5 x10(5)CFU g(-1)) despite their low total C (<0.01\%). FRS
   possessed high CFU (3 x10(6) g(-1)); however, its relative value per
   unit of total C (2.6\%) was lower than that of the deposit samples.
   Based on the tag pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA genes, the BRD bacterial
   community was characterized by a higher number of betaproteobacterial
   families (or genus), represented by chemolithotrophic Methylophilaceae,
   Leptothrix, and Sulfuricellaceae. In contrast, BRUD was predominated by
   different betaproteobacterial families, such as Oxalobacteraceae,
   Comamonadaceae, and Rhodocyclaceae. Some bacterial (Oxalobacteraceae)
   sequences were phylogenetically related to those of known
   moss-associated bacteria. Within the FRS community, Proteobacteria was
   the most abundant phylum, followed by Acidobacteria, whereas
   Burkholderiaceae was the most dominant bacterial family within FRS.
   These results suggest that an inter-family succession of
   Betaproteobacteria occurred in response to colonization by mosses,
   followed by plants.},

Abstract = {The classification of software systems into types has been achieved in
   the past by observing both their specifications and behavioral patterns:
   the SPE classification, for instance, and its further supplements and
   refinements. has identified the S-type (i.e., fully specified), the
   P-type (i.e., specified but dependent on the context) and the E-type
   (i.e., addressing evolving problems) among the software systems.
   In order to detect types, and establish similarities, among
   Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) systems, this paper considers
   three modular characteristics (functions, files and folders) and their
   evolution: how they are evolving with size, if they are constant across
   systems, and whether recurring evolutionary patterns are observed. Using
   these various-grained characteristics, a set of models for the evolution
   of modularization are extracted from evolving systems, and then used to
   extract similarities and types from a wide sample of FLOSS projects.
   This paper provides three contributions: first, it shows that several
   models are needed to encompass the variety of modularization patterns;
   second, it provides three types of models (uni-variate, bi-variate and
   tri-variate) for the evolution of modularization, with significant
   goodness-of-fit's. Finally, it shows that two of these patterns alone
   can interpolate the modular characteristics of the vast majority of a
   random choice of FLOSS projects.},

Abstract = {Company engagement in open source (OSS) is now the new norm. From large
   technology companies to startups, companies are participating in the OSS
   ecosystem by open-sourcing their technology, sponsoring projects through
   funding or paid developer time. However, our understanding of the OSS
   ecosystem is rooted in the ``old world{''} model where individual
   contributors sustain OSS projects. In this work, we create a more
   comprehensive understanding of the hybrid OSS landscape by investigating
   what motivates companies to contribute and how they contribute to OSS.
   We conducted interviews with 20 participants who have different roles
   (e.g., CEO, OSPO Lead, Ecosystem Strategist) at 17 different companies
   of different sizes from large companies (e.g. Microsoft, RedHat, Google,
   Spotify) to startups. Data from semi-structured interviews reveal that
   company motivations can be categorized into four levels (Founders'
   Vision, Reputation, Business Advantage, and Reciprocity) and companies
   participate through different mechanisms (e.g., Developers' Time,
   Mentoring Time, Advocacy \& Promotion Time), each of which tie to the
   different types of motivations. We hope our findings nudge more
   companies to participate in the OSS ecosystem, helping make it robust,
   diverse, and sustainable.},

Abstract = {Reliance on data for software systems engineering is increasing, e.g.,
   to train machine learning applications. We foresee increasing costs for
   data collection and maintenance, leading to the risk of development
   budgets eaten up by commodity features, thus leaving little resources
   for differentiation and innovation. We therefore propose Open
   Collaborative Data (OCD) - a concept analogous to Open Source Software
   (OSS) as a means to share data. In contrast to Open Data (OD), which
   e.g., governmental agencies provide to catalyze innovation, OCD is
   shared in open collaboration between commercial organizations, similar
   to OSS. To achieve this, there is a need for technical infrastructure
   (e.g., tools for version and access control), licence models, and
   governance models, all of which have to be tailored for data. However,
   as data may be sensitive for privacy, anonymization and obfuscation of
   data is also a research challenge. In this paper, we define the concept
   of Open Collaborative Data, demonstrate it by map data and image
   recognition examples, and outline a research agenda for OCD in software
   engineering as a basis for more efficient evolution of software systems.},

Abstract = {Software forges are centralized online systems that provide useful tools
   to help distributed development teams work together, especially in free,

   include web space, version control systems, mailing lists and
   communication forums, bug tracking systems, file downloads, wikis, and
   the like. Empirical software engineering researchers can mine the
   artifacts from these tools to better understand how FLOSS is made. As
   the landscape of distributed software development has grown and changed,
   the tools needed to make FLOSS have changed as well. There are three
   newer tools at the center of FLOSS development today: distributed
   version control based forges (like Github), programmer
   question-and-answer communities (like Stack Overflow), and pastebin
   tools (like Gist or Pastebin.com). These tools are extending and
   changing the toolset used for FLOSS development, and redefining what a
   software forge looks like. The main contributions of this paper are to
   describe each of these tools, to identify the data and artifacts
   available for mining from these tools, and to outline some of the ways
   researchers can use these artifacts to continue to understand how FLOSS
   is made.},

Abstract = {Information and communication technology (ICT) workers rarely join trade
   unions. This is usually explained by the individualized nature of work.
   This article examines broader forms of collectivism for these workers,
   drawing on survey and interview data. The focus is on social class,
   attitudes towards unions and professional bodies and participation in
   the broader ICT community - specifically Free, Libre and Open Source
   Software (FLOSS). The findings reveal absence of formal collective
   frames of reference or organization, yet the creativity, autonomy and
   initiative central to the identity of ICT workers may offer
   opportunities for collectivization particularly with regard to
   participation in FLOSS communities.},

Abstract = {Current computing systems comes with different power management and
   profiling tools to run the system in its optimal state. Though the
   hardware systems have advanced a lot in-terms of energy efficiency and
   computing power, the software's energy and resources efficiency is still
   lacking behind. In many cases due to poor/bad designing of software it
   cannot utilize the hardware efficiently and end up a system with high
   energy consumption. To address this issues software's need a careful
   profiling in its development process to make the software efficient and
   less resource hungry. In this paper we compared some of the profiling
   tools available as Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) which are used
   under Linux environment. These software tools uses different strategies
   and have different accuracies in finding a system and software programs
   behavior and its resource requirements. Their performance and resource
   overheads such as memory, CPU, disk consumption were compared and
   results are summarized for making the tools selection easier to
   researchers and developers alike. Another important issue with these
   tools are that, their reporting formats are not always easy to
   understand and it makes them less user friendly.},

Abstract = {We propose a mathematical model to fit the degree distribution of
   directed dependency networks in free and open-source software. In this
   complex system, the intermediate scales of both the in-directed and
   out-directed dependency networks follow a power-law trend (specifically
   Zipf's law). Deviations from this feature are found both for the highly
   linked nodes, and the poorly linked nodes. This is due to finite-size
   effects in the networks, and the parameters needed to model finite-size
   behaviour make a quantitative distinction between the in-directed and
   out-directed networks. We also provide a model to describe the dynamic
   evolution of the network, and account for its saturation in the
   long-time limit.},

Abstract = {Claims about the potential of free software to reform the production and

   free software community fails to engage the pragmatic and economic
   `realities' of a software industry. We argue to the contrary that
   contemporary business and economic trends definitively demonstrate the
   financial viability of an economy based on free software. But the
   argument for free software derives its true normative weight from social
   justice considerations: the evaluation of the basis for a software
   economy should be guided by consideration of the social and cultural
   states which are the ultimate goals of any economic arrangement. That
   is, the software economy should be evaluated in light of its ability to
   provide justice. We conclude with a discussion of possible avenues for
   reform.},

Abstract = {Some free software projects have been extremely successful. This rise to
   prominence can be attributed to the high quality and suitability of the
   software. This quality and suitability is achieved through an elaborate
   peer-review process performed by a large community of users, who act as
   co-developers to identify and correct software defects and add features.
   Although this process is crucial to the success of free software
   projects, there is more to the free software development than the
   creation of a `bazaar'. In this paper we draw on existing free software
   projects to define a lifecycle model for free software. This paper then
   explores each phase of the lifecycle model and agrees that, while the
   bazaar phase attracts the most attention, it is the initial modular
   design that accommodates diverse interventions. Moreover, it is the
   period of transition from the initial group to the larger community
   based development that is crucial in determining whether a free software
   project will succeed or fail.},

Abstract = {Proponents, of Free Software have argued that some of the most
   established software engineering principles do not fully apply when
   considered in an open, distributed approach. Among these principles,
   ``Brooks' Law{''} has been questioned in the Free Software context:
   large teams of developers, contrary to the law, will not need an
   increasingly growing number of communication channels. As advocates
   claim, this is due to the internal characteristics of the Free Software
   process: the high modularity of the code helps developers to work on
   comparted sections, without the need to coordinate with all other
   contriutors.
   This paper examines Brooks' Law in a Free Software context, and it
   studies the interaction of contributors to a large Free Software
   project, KDE. The network of interactions is analyzed and a summary
   term, the ``compaction{''}, is dynamically evaluated to test how the
   coordination mechanism evolves over time in the project. This paper
   argues that the claim of advocates holds true, but with limitations: in
   the KDE project, the few initial developers needed a significant amount
   of communication. The growth of KDE brought the need to break the number
   of overall communication channels to a significant extent. Finally, an
   established amount of 300 developers currently needs the same amount of
   communication as when the developers were only 10. We interpret this
   result by arguing that Brooks' Law holds true among the core developers
   of any large Free Software project.},

Abstract = {In this work, a geophysical characterization of the subsoil of a civil

   foundation and its parking lot platforms. We acquired GPR profiles all
   throughout the area of the internal part of the basement and the outer
   retaining wall part. The pieces of equipment used were SIR 4000 and a HS
   350 MHz center frequency antenna. The data presented a good and
   consistent signal. High resolution subsoil images of up to 3m in depth
   of the area below the parking lots were generated through the analysis
   of information derived from the processing and interpretation of the
   data. All of these were compared with information from geotechnical and
   topographic studies of the area. The results obtained show that the
   trees' roots are causing scour due to a drying effect of the subsoil,
   which caused damage to the slab in the parking lot and on the retaining
   wall.},

Abstract = {People and organizations that are considering the adoption of OSS, or
   that need to choose among different OS products face the problem of
   evaluating OSS in a systematic, sound and complete way. While several
   proposals concerning the evaluation of costs and benefits exist, little
   attention has been given to the evaluation of technical qualities and,
   in general, to the ``usage-oriented{''} issues. In this paper the
   existing proposals are examined, the different types of qualities and
   issues that are relevant to potential users are described, and a
   coherent and innovative method for the evaluation of OSS is proposed.
   The proposed method is expected to support the potential user in the
   evaluation and choice of OSS in a flexible way, taking into account all
   the aspects that are relevant to the user.},

Abstract = {Open Source license is a prerequisite for open source software, which
   regulates the use, modification, redistribution, and attribution of the
   software. Open source license is crucial to the community development
   and commercial interests of an OSS project, yet choosing a proper
   license from hundreds of licenses remains challenging. Tools assisting
   developers to understand the terms and pick the right license have been
   emerging, while inferring license compatibility on the dependency tree
   and satisfying the complex needs of developers are beyond the capability
   of most of them. Thus we propose LicenseRec, an open source license
   recommendation tool that helps to bridge the gap. LicenseRec performs
   fine-grained license compatibility checks on OSS projects' code and
   dependencies, and assists developers to choose the optimal license
   through an interactive wizard with guidelines of three aspects: personal
   open source style, business pattern, and community development. The
   usefulness of LicenseRec is confirmed by the consistent positive
   feedback from 10 software developers with academic and industrial
   backgrounds. Our tool is accessible at https://licenserec.com and a
   video showcasing the tool is available at https://video.licenserec.com.},

Abstract = {This paper presents a critical review of the design of innovation
   surveys that follow the Oslo Manual standards, based on a series of case
   studies in Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) companies. The main
   objective of the article is to propose criteria for measuring innovation
   in software that consider the specificities of the non-monetized
   innovation generated in the FLOSS community, helping to overcome
   relevant limitations of the current sectorial surveys based on the Oslo
   Manual. We applied a qualitative analysis based on seven case studies in
   FLOSS firms from Argentina, mainly through semi-structured interviews to
   key informants. Such analysis was aimed to elucidate the nature and
   particularities of the innovation processes and outcomes in the firms,
   the characteristics of the collaboration with the community and its role
   in the business model and innovation strategy of the organizations. The
   main results of the empirical study are: a) a criticism of the monetary
   conception of the predominant innovation in the manuals of the area and
   b) on this basis emerges a series of recommendations to improve the
   measurement of innovation through surveys in the software sector , such
   as: the consideration of publicly released products and developments and
   contributions to third-party products in the FLOSS community, the
   incorporation of performance indicators of firms not based on sales from
   innovation, and the consideration of innovation selection mechanisms
   typical of FLOSS communities not based on their market impact.},

Title = {SRBF\_Soft: a Python-based open-source software for regional gravity
   field modeling using spherical radial basis functions based on the
   data-adaptive network design methodology},
Journal = {EARTH SCIENCE INFORMATICS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {15},

Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {This study introduces a novel open-source Python software package called
   SRBF\_Soft for the high-resolution regional gravity field determination
   using various spherical radial basis functions (SBRFs) in terms of point
   mass, Poisson, and Poisson wavelet kernel. The modeling approach
   considers residual gravity field functionals generated by the well-known
   remove-compute-restore (RCR) technique where the long and short
   wavelength parts of the gravity signal are provided by a global
   geopotential model (GGM) and digital terrain model (DTM), respectively.
   A new data-adaptive network design methodology called k-SRBF is used to
   construct a network of SRBFs. The appropriate bandwidths (depths) are
   chosen using the generalized cross-validation (GCV) technique. The
   unknown SRBFs coefficients are estimated by applying the least-squares
   method where the extended Gauss Markov Model (GMM) with additional prior
   information is applied if the normal equation matrix is ill-conditioned.
   In such a case, the optimal regularization parameter is determined by
   variance component estimation (VCE). By utilizing parallel processing in
   every stage of the RCR technique, including creating the design matrix,
   the computational time is remarkably decreased relative to the number of
   processors used in the modeling. The performance of the software has
   been tested and validated in the Auvergne test area (France) on the
   basis of real terrestrial gravity data. The differences between
   estimated and observed height anomaly points (GNSS/leveling) amount to
   about 3 cm in terms of standard deviation (STD) for all kernels
   indicating that the SRBF\_Soft possesses the capability to be applied in
   regional gravity field modeling as an efficient and reliable software.},

Abstract = {Developers participating in an open source software (OSS) project make
   contributions to the project at different levels and aspects. Their
   underlying technical interests, expertise, and working habits are
   indirectly delineated by their personal contributions. This paper is to
   discover the individualized contribution features of developers by
   latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) approach. Dominant latent topics of
   each developer and the corresponding topic coverage degree are extracted
   from the source codes committed to the project repository, and such
   topic model is validated to be feasible for representing the
   individualized contribution features by statistics tests. Four types of
   topic evolution patterns are observed from the commit history of a
   developer. Temporal locality is partially exhibited in the topic
   evolution but there usually exhibit drastic changes between
   time-adjacent contributions of a developer. Respective proportions of
   the four evolution patterns and the degree of temporal locality in the
   topic evolution delineate a developer's individualized working habits in
   the time dimension. It is also proved that the correlation among the
   topic models of different developers is not equivalent to the real
   social collaborations among them. The outcome of this study would help
   OSS project coordinators get deep understanding on the work preferences
   and behavioral patterns of team members, thus facilitate project
   coordination activities such as task allocations.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) community has attracted a large number of
   distributed developers to work together, e.g. reporting and discussing
   issues as well as submitting and reviewing code. OSS developers create
   links among development units (e.g. issues and pull requests in GitHub),
   share their opinions and promote the resolution of development units.
   Although previous work has examined the role of links in recommending
   high-priority tasks and reducing resource waste, the understanding of
   the actual usage of links in practice is still limited. To address the
   research gap, we conduct an empirical study based on the 5W1H model and
   data mining from five popular OSS projects on GitHub. We find that links
   originating from a PR are more common than the other three types of
   links, and links are more frequently created in Documentation. We also
   find that average duration between development units' create time in a
   link is half a year. We observed that link behaviors are very complex
   and the duration of link increases with the complexity of link
   structure. We also observe that the reasons of link are very different,
   especially in P-P and I-I. Finally, future works are discussed in

Abstract = {Sequential risk mitigation is a three-phase process designed to: (1)
   reduce the ecological and human health risks posed by highly
   contaminated sediments through confinement or capping; (2) reduce the
   risks associated with moderate levels of pollution on a less urgent
   schedule and at lower cost; and (3) address areas of limited
   contamination through a combination of natural attenuation and enhanced
   natural attenuation. Natural attenuation has as its basis the
   observation that ecosystem recovery appears to be largely a function of
   time. Sediment decomposition and the mixing of old sediments by
   bottom-dwelling organisms contribute to reduced contaminant
   concentrations. Knowledge of these processes is critical to the
   development of ecosystem recovery and waste management strategies. To
   evaluate the applicability of natural attenuation, information should be
   collected to determine whether surface sediment chemical concentrations
   will reach cleanup standards within a 10-year period through a
   combination of natural attenuation and adequate source control.
   The remedial design for the Thea Foss Waterway Superfund Site in Tacoma,
   Washington, employs the sequential risk mitigation approach. The EPA has
   selected a remedy involving natural attenuation (21 acres {[}8.4
   hectares]), enhanced natural attenuation (4 acres {[}1.6 hectares]),
   dredging (650,000 cubic yards {[}494,000 cubic meters]), and capping (30
   acres {[}12 hectares]) of this 8,000-foot (2,438-meter)-long waterway.
   The dredged material will be disposed of in a near-shore confined
   disposal facility. Specialized design elements include sorbent capping
   of active oil seeps, about 400 feet (122 meters) of permanent sheet pile
   bulkhead, and other features related to long-term monitoring of the
   remedy and to controlling contaminant sources.},

Title = {FRED (A Framework for Reconstructing Epidemic Dynamics): an open-source
   software system for modeling infectious diseases and control strategies
   using census-based populations},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {13},
Month = {OCT 8},
Abstract = {Background: Mathematical and computational models provide valuable tools
   that help public health planners to evaluate competing health
   interventions, especially for novel circumstances that cannot be
   examined through observational or controlled studies, such as pandemic
   influenza. The spread of diseases like influenza depends on the mixing
   patterns within the population, and these mixing patterns depend in part
   on local factors including the spatial distribution and age structure of
   the population, the distribution of size and composition of households,
   employment status and commuting patterns of adults, and the size and age
   structure of schools. Finally, public health planners must take into
   account the health behavior patterns of the population, patterns that
   often vary according to socioeconomic factors such as race, household
   income, and education levels.
   Results: FRED (a Framework for Reconstructing Epidemic Dynamics) is a
   freely available open-source agent-based modeling system based closely
   on models used in previously published studies of pandemic influenza.
   This version of FRED uses open-access census-based synthetic populations
   that capture the demographic and geographic heterogeneities of the
   population, including realistic household, school, and workplace social
   networks. FRED epidemic models are currently available for every state
   and county in the United States, and for selected international
   locations.
   Conclusions: State and county public health planners can use FRED to
   explore the effects of possible influenza epidemics in specific
   geographic regions of interest and to help evaluate the effect of
   interventions such as vaccination programs and school closure policies.
   FRED is available under a free open source license in order to
   contribute to the development of better modeling tools and to encourage
   open discussion of modeling tools being used to evaluate public health
   policies. We also welcome participation by other researchers in the
   further development of FRED.},

Title = {PyOECP: A flexible open-source software library for estimating and
   modeling the complex permittivity based on the open-ended coaxial probe
   (OECP) technique},
Journal = {COMPUTER PHYSICS COMMUNICATIONS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {282},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {We present PyOECP, a Python-based flexible open-source software for
   estimating and modeling the complex permittivity obtained from the
   open-ended coaxial probe (OECP) technique. The transformation of the
   measured reflection coefficient to complex permittivity is performed
   based on three different methods. The software library contains the
   dielectric spectra of common reference liquids, which can be used to
   transform the reflection coefficient into the dielectric spectra.
   Several Python routines that are commonly employed (e.g., SciPy and
   NumPy) in the field of science and engineering are required only so that
   the users can alter the software structure depending on their needs. The
   modeling algorithm exploits the Markov Chain Monte Carlo method for the
   data regression. The discrete relaxation models can be built by a proper
   combination of well-known relaxation models. In addition to these
   models, electrode polarization, a typical measurement artifact for
   interpreting dielectric spectra, can be incorporated into the modeling
   algorithm. A continuous relaxation model, which solves the Fredholm
   integral equation of the first kind (a mathematically ill-posed
   problem), is also included. This open-source software enables users to
   freely adjust the physical parameters to obtain physical insight into
   their materials under test and will be consistently updated for more
   accurate measurement and interpretation of dielectric spectra in an
   automated manner. This work describes the theoretical and mathematical
   background of the software, lays out the workflow, and validates the
   software functionality based on both synthetic and empirical data
   included in the software. Program summary Program title: PyOECP 0.5 CPC

   Numpy, Scipy, and Matplotlib Nature of problem: Estimate and interpret
   the frequency-dependent (complex) permittivity in fluid(s) and their
   mixtures based on the reflection coefficients obtained from the
   open-ended coaxial probe (OECP) technique. The obtained dielectric
   spectra can be useful for understanding the relaxation processes in an
   arbitrary fluid. Solution method: The reflection coefficient data is
   obtained as a text format from a Vector Network Analyzer (VNA). This
   text data is parsed into a Numpy array. Three different modules
   (Stuchly, Marsland, and Komarov) can be used to transform the parsed
   reflection coefficient data into complex permittivity as a function of
   the measurement frequency. The resultant dielectric spectra can be
   dissected and interpreted by fitting either discrete relaxation model(s)
   based on the Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm or a continuous
   relaxation model by applying the Zasetsky-Buchner method. (C) 2022

Journal = {REMOTE SENSING},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {16},

Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {This paper investigates the impact of flood-induced hydrodynamic forces
   and high discharge on the masonry arch ``Hannibal Bridge{''} (called
   ``Ponte di Annibale{''} in Italy) using the Hydraulic Engineering
   Center's River Analysis Simulation (HEC-RAS) v6.5.0. hydraulic numerical
   method, incorporating Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) photogrammetry and
   aerial Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) data for visual analysis. The
   research highlights the highly transient behavior of fast flood flows,
   particularly when carrying debris, and their effect on bridge
   superstructures. Utilizing a Digital Elevation Model to extract
   cross-sectional and elevation data, the research examined 23 profiles
   over 800 m of the river. The results indicate that the maximum allowable
   water depth in front of the bridge is 4.73 m, with a Manning's
   coefficient of 0.03 and a longitudinal slope of 9 m per kilometer.
   Therefore, a novel method to identify the risks through HEC-RAS modeling
   significantly improves the conservation of masonry bridges by providing
   precise topographical and hydrological data for accurate simulations.
   Moreover, the detailed information obtained from LIDAR and UAV
   photogrammetry about the bridge's materials and structures can be
   incorporated into the conservation models. This comprehensive approach
   ensures that preservation efforts are not only addressing the immediate
   hydrodynamic threats but are also informed by a thorough understanding
   of the bridge's structural and material conditions. Understanding rating
   curves is essential for water management and flood forecasting, with the
   study confirming a Manning roughness coefficient of 0.03 as suitable for
   smooth open-channel flows and emphasizing the importance of
   geomorphological conditions in hydraulic simulation.},

Journal = {DRONES},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {6},

Abstract = {In recent years, the performance of free-and-open-source software (FOSS)
   for image processing has significantly increased. This trend, as well as
   technological advancements in the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)
   industry, have opened blue skies for both researchers and surveyors. In
   this study, we aimed to assess the quality of the sparse point cloud
   obtained with a consumer UAV and a FOSS. To achieve this goal, we also
   process the same image dataset with a commercial software package using
   its results as a term of comparison. Various analyses were conducted,
   such as the image residuals analysis, the statistical analysis of GCPs
   and CPs errors, the relative accuracy assessment, and the Cloud-to-Cloud
   distance comparison. A support survey was conducted to measure 16
   markers identified on the object. In particular, 12 of these were used
   as ground control points to scale the 3D model, while the remaining 4
   were used as check points to assess the quality of the scaling procedure
   by examining the residuals. Results indicate that the sparse clouds
   obtained are comparable. MicMac (R) has mean image residuals equal to
   0.770 pixels while for Metashape (R) is 0.735 pixels. In addition, the
   3D errors on control points are similar: the mean 3D error for MicMac
   (R) is equal to 0.037 m with a standard deviation of 0.017 m, whereas
   for Metashape (R), it is 0.031 m with a standard deviation equal to
   0.015 m. The present work represents a preliminary study: a comparison
   between software packages is something hard to achieve, given the
   secrecy of the commercial software and the theoretical differences
   between the approaches. This case study analyzes an object with
   extremely complex geometry; it is placed in an urban canyon where the
   GNSS support can not be exploited. In addition, the scenario changes
   continuously due to the vehicular traffic.},

Abstract = {Bridges are among the most important structures of any road network.
   During their service life, they are subject to deterioration which may
   reduce their safety and functionality. The detection of bridge damage is
   necessary for proper maintenance activities. To date, assessing the
   health status of the bridge and all its elements is carried out by
   identifying a series of data obtained from visual inspections, which
   allows the mapping of the deterioration situation of the work and its
   conservation status. There are, however, situations where visual
   inspection may be difficult or impossible, especially in critical areas
   of bridges, such as the ceiling and corners. In this contribution, the
   authors acquire images using a prototype drone with a low-cost camera
   mounted upward over the body of the drone. The proposed solution was
   tested on a bridge in the city of Turin (Italy). The captured data was
   processed via photogrammetric process using the opensource Micmac
   solution. Subsequently, a procedure was developed with FOSS tools for
   the segmentation of the orthophoto of the intrados of the bridge and the
   automatic classification of some defects found on the analyzed
   structure. The paper describes the adopted approach showing the
   effectiveness of the proposed methodology.},

Abstract = {In this work, experimental studies of the internal structure of woven
   fabric reinforced fiberglass and carbon fiber composite samples with
   embedded optical fiber were carried out. It is known that for the
   unidirectional composites the most significant distortion of the
   structure of the host material takes place when the optical fiber is
   embedded perpendicular to the direction of the reinforcement of the
   composite material layers. However, the internal structure of the
   composites with woven layer reinforcement scheme is significantly
   different. And the embedding of such a foreign object as an optical
   fiber can cause a basically other, as compared to unidirectional
   composites, change in the internal structure. Cross-sectional studies
   were performed using an optical microscope. The analysis of
   cross-sections of PCM samples was carried out with the aim of studying
   the changes in the structure of the layered composite with woven fabric
   reinforcement due to the embedding of the fiber-optic sensors. A
   comparison of the obtained images showed that the microstructure of the
   studied samples is better seen on polished surfaces. In the absence of
   polishing on a number of samples, the optical fiber is not visually
   noticeable or poorly distinguishable. Analysis of the obtained images
   showed that there is an insignificant distortion of the internal
   structure of the material in the area with embedded optical fiber
   without the formation of a resin pocket for all studied GFRP samples. At
   the same time, when analyzing CFRP samples, the effect of embedding of
   the optical fiber on the microstructure of the composite was not
   observed. 2019 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.},

Abstract = {This paper presents our work towards a fully functioning platform for
   pervasive service engineering in an operational support services (OSS)
   context for an ICT service provider. The focus of the paper lies in a
   proof-of-concept for a novel means to develop and execute pervasive
   services, with simplicity and maintainability as prime drivers. The
   essence of this approach is the novel integration of the policy-based
   management (PBM) techniques and the model-driven architecture (MDA)
   techniques for specifying pervasive services and their behaviour,
   together with auto-generation of middleware implementation and policy
   enablement. The presence of policies provides pervasive services with
   the high flexibility and adaptability needed for dealing with changing
   environments and resource availabilities, while the introduction of MDA
   for defining pervasive service information models fundamentally solves
   the information modelling puzzle of current policy-based approaches.
   Additionally, MDA's middleware-neutral feature benefits the smooth
   evolution of pervasive services as a piece of software artefact in the
   face of heterogeneous devices and platforms. A preliminary case study
   has demonstrated the practical feasibility and benefits of this
   approach. The case study revolves around an ICT service called TEANU -
   transparent enterprise access for nomadic user. The service provides a
   means for nomadic users to maintain a secure access to their enterprise
   network in the presence of multiple access network providers with
   different service level guarantees.},

Abstract = {In the last few decades, the Open Source Software (OSS) diffusion has
   grown remarkably in companies. In this context, the present study has
   analyzed the factors that incentivize OSS implementations for enterprise
   purposes, linking two perspectives: (1) managerial and (2) educational.
   Thus, the Delphi methodology was applied to a panel of experts with two
   aims: (1) to know managers' perceptions about organizational users'
   motivations toward OSS after receiving OSS training and (2) to develop a
   forecasting study to examine the OSS diffusion in the medium term in
   companies and educational centers. In this context, the
   Self-Determination Theory (SDT) was the theoretical approach through
   which we identified the motivational factors. Specifically, three SDT
   motivations were added: (1) autonomy, (2) competence and (3)
   relatedness. The 104 selected experts were managers from companies with
   employees who have studied in educational centers where OSS usage is
   mandatory. The results show that managers perceive that OSS training
   incentivizes OSS implementations in companies. At the same time, user
   motivations are considered to be extremely relevant, especially
   autonomy. In addition, is the results foresee a similar level of OSS
   implementation in the business and educational fields in the medium
   term. Finally, conclusions, practical implications and limitations are
   discussed.},

   after joining a project. Drawing on literature from personnel economics,
   we lay out how coders' skill level affects their selection for a focal
   project in the first place. In turn, we theorize how projectspecific
   norms and quality aspirations that developers learn about after joining
   an OSS project represent treatments that varyingly entice developers to
   contribute more code conditional on their skill level. Based on a
   custom-tailored dataset merging GitHub and Stack Overflow data for
   almost 50,000 contributor-project-month observations, we find that
   repository owners are able to motivate their most talented volunteer
   contributors when they (1) show no visible commercial orientation while
   managing their projects, (2) show generosity in accepting external
   contributions, and (3) provide fast feedback. We discuss implications
   for research and practice in the fields of community-based organizations
   like OSS as well as personnel economics.},

Abstract = {Prediction of developers' programming behaviors is an effective way to
   improve their development efficiency and optimize the organization of
   project modules and files. However, little research exists investigating
   on this direction. In order to address this knowledge gap, we proposed a
   NLP-based approach to predict the programming behaviors in OSS (Open
   Source Software) communities. The proposed approach i) embeds the
   historical programming behavior data of a project into a
   multi-dimensional vector space to capture the potential laws in the
   data, ii) forms an eigenvector matrix reflecting the semantic
   relationship of the development behavior data, and predicts the next
   programming behavior of a specific developer based on the eigenvector
   matrix. Our experiments on five OSS projects show that the prediction
   accuracy rate of the proposed prediction approach can reach up to about
   50\%, indicating that it can summarize the development behavior data law
   and effectively predict the programming behavior of developers. Our work
   can provide valuable assistance for developers' programming and
   projects' maintenance in practice.},

Abstract = {Filament-wound composite cylinders are used in the marine and
   transportation industries for storing breathing gases (SCUBA,
   firefighter tanks) and gaseous fuels (vehicles). These cylinders offer
   light weight, corrosion resistance, dimensional stability, and the
   ability to store more air than equivalent metal tanks. The design
   methodology currently used for composite tanks, however, cannot yet
   guarantee their safe operation. Accordingly, the U.S. Department of
   Transportation (DOT) is unable to issue full certification of
   filament-wound tanks. Rather, some types of composite pressure tanks
   currently are manufactured under DOT Exemption, TC Regulation 3FCM. The
   composite tank industry would benefit by improving the safety of
   operating these tanks.
   The interest in developing composite pressure tanks is here and the
   manufacturing technology is mature. What is needed, however, is a means
   of insuring that composite tanks are as safe to operate as metal tanks.
   This will facilitate DOT certification and appeal to consumers. This
   paper discusses a fiber optic sensor system embedded into the composite
   shell wall as a structural health monitor. Using a simple, low-cost
   optical fiber sensor and a modified commercial connector, ``smart{''}
   tanks can be monitored continuously for structural integrity. The
   opportunity to provide such continuity in structural health monitoring
   should have a significant positive impact on obtaining DOT
   certifications and extending product useful life.
   This paper presents the results of a design program to develop a new
   filament-wound composite cylinder containing a fiber-optic sensor system
   (FOSS). The purpose of FOSS is to monitor the structural integrity of
   the composite material each time the tank is refilled with pressurized
   gas. Continuous monitoring for material degradation will be an important
   factor that determines tank recertification intervals and useful tank
   life.
   One of the greatest challenges of this design program has been to
   develop an optical connector that allows external instrumentation to be
   ``plugged into{''} the composite wall to read optical signals that
   correlate with structural health. ``While embedding fiber sensors has
   become routine, ingress to and egress from the embedded units remain a
   major stumbling block{''} (Spillman, 1995). A simple modification to a
   commercial connector is proposed for this application.
   The design and manufacture of the prototype FOSS cylinder shown in
   Figure 1 are described in this paper. Connector performance and the
   overall performance of a prototype Type III tank consisting of an
   aluminum liner, an E-glass/epoxy filament-wound overwrap, and an
   embedded FOSS are discussed. Results of a pressure test to assess FOSS
   performance are presented.},

Abstract = {Network Automation seeks to integrate software solutions that aid in the
   management and maintenance of modern networks. In industry, large
   organizations see dedicated software engineering resources within a
   networking team. However, in the broader industry, it is more common to
   see traditional network engineers working on network automation. With
   the growth of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS), network automation
   software solutions also started to adhere to this development model.
   However, as it is known from the literature, onboarding to FOSS projects
   is not a trivial task and may be more challenging for people without a
   software development background. In this paper, we study network
   automation FOSS projects, which are seeing a large number of new
   contributors who do not have traditional software engineering skills. We
   analyze a set of data collected from pull requests and issues collected
   from 81 GitHub projects (71 network automation projects, and 10
   top-projects from other domains), to identify the characteristics that
   are specific to first-time project contributors in the network
   automation domain. Our results show that pull requests in the Network
   Automation domain differ from those in the Top-10 set and the existing
   literature. At the same time that Network Automation projects are more
   inclusive (rejection rate: 12\% vs. 28\% on Top-10), the pull request
   latency is longer in this specific domain, especially for first-timers.},

Abstract = {Many computer science programs have capstone experiences or project
   courses that allow students to integrate knowledge from the full breadth
   of their major. Such capstone projects may be student-designed,
   instructor-designed, designed in conjunction with outside companies, or
   integrated with ongoing free and open source (FOSS) projects. The
   literature shows that the FOSS approach has attracted a great deal of
   interest, in particular when implemented with projects that have
   humanitarian goals (HFOSS). In this article, we describe five unique
   models from five distinct types of institutions for incorporating
   sustained FOSS or HFOSS (alternatively H/FOSS) project work into
   capstone experiences or courses. The goal is to provide instructors
   wishing to integrate open source experiences into their curriculum with
   additional perspectives and resources to help in adapting this approach
   to the specific needs and goals of their institution and students. All
   of the models presented are based on sustained engagement with H/FOSS
   projects that last at least one semester and often more. Each model is
   described in terms of its characteristics and how it fits the needs of
   the institution using the model. Assessment of each model is also
   presented. We then discuss the themes that are common across the models,
   such as project selection, team formation, mentoring, and student
   assessment. We examine the choices made by each model, as well as the
   challenges faced. We end with a discussion how the models have leveraged
   institutional initiatives and collaborations with outside organizations
   to address some of the challenges associated with these projects.},

Abstract = {The vast majority of literature on coordination in team-based projects
   has drawn on a conceptual separation between explicit (e.g. plans,
   feedback) and implicit coordination mechanisms (e.g. mental maps, shared
   knowledge). This analytic distinction presents some limitations in
   explaining how coordination is reached in organizations characterized by
   distributed teams, scarce face to face meetings and fuzzy and changing
   lines of authority, as in free/libre open source software (FLOSS)
   development.
   Analyzing empirical illustrations from two FLOSS projects, we highlight
   the existence of a peculiar model, stigmergic coordination, which
   includes aspects of both implicit and explicit mechanisms. The work
   product itself (implicit) and the characteristics under which it is
   shared (explicit) play an under-appreciated role in helping software
   developers manage dependencies as they arise. We develop this argument
   beyond the existing literature by working with an existing coordination
   framework, considering the role that the codebase itself might play at
   each step. We also discuss the features and the practices to support
   stigmergic coordination in distributed teams, as well as recommendations
   for future research. (C) 2016 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.

   Thousands of these projects are collaboratively driven by communities

   constant change. But as this work shows, the agile approach not only
   provides chances in open settings. A variety of challenges occur that
   need to be considered. The case of Catrobat, a Free/Libre Open Source
   project, shows that although open source development and agile methods
   evolved over the last years, the dynamics of open communities still
   challenge the agile way. However, evaluating and understanding these
   dynamics, as well as introducing agile elements, such as the role of

Abstract = {Software engineering education has long sought to provide students with
   real-world software development and professional experience. The use of
   Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) projects is one attractive approach
   for providing students with easy access to a complex, ongoing project of
   size that is supported by a professional community. Humanitarian FOSS
   (HFOSS) projects hold the additional appeal to students of developing
   software that will benefit the human condition. However, student
   involvement in HFOSS projects can be somewhat unpredictable and less
   controllable than the development of home-grown projects or projects
   with an industry partner. Student participation in an HFOSS project
   means that students are dependent, at least somewhat, on the goals,
   schedule, and constraints of the HFOSS project itself. Therefore,
   learning is somewhat reliant on the progress of the HFOSS project. This
   paper presents results of a multi-year study of student perceptions of
   learning related to software engineering knowledge and skills while
   involved in an HFOSS project. The paper includes a background of work in
   student participation in HFOSS, an outline of the study approach and an
   explanation of the results. Implications of the results and future

Series = {Social Issues Justice and Status},
Year = {2008},
Pages = {1-26},
Abstract = {Many researchers have stressed out the socio-economic changes caused by
   the emergence and rapid diffusion of Open Source Software (OSS). It is
   without doubt that an increasing number of software and hardware vendors
   are investing significant amounts in open Source software in a number of
   ways. This may be due primarily to the fact that open source ultimately
   produces greater value on both the use and production sides, implying an
   impact on welfare. This chapter attempts a holistic approach on the
   analysis of the OSS phenomenon and its impact on welfare. The main
   entities of the OSS ecosystem are identified and analysed under the
   scope of the main factors affecting welfare: innovation, competition and
   productivity. For that purpose an all encompassing model of the OSS
   ecosystem is created to reflect the interactions among its entities as
   well as the direct and indirect effects on welfare factors. Innovation
   and productivity are promoted by the accumulation of knowledge and human
   capital input by individuals as well as by enterprises. OSS as an
   innovative mode of production has created market opportunities and new
   sustainable business models, creating the appropriate conditions for new
   entrances and a raise in competition in the software market. To support
   this, a market concentration index, the HHI index, is tested over the
   case of web servers. As a result the study reveals that under the
   appropriate conditions, OSS call have a positive impact on welfare.},

Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {55},
Number = {7},
Pages = {1260-1276},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Context: The selection and adoption of open source software can
   significantly influence the competitiveness of organisations. Open
   source software solutions offer great opportunities for cost reduction
   and quality improvement, especially for small and medium enterprises
   that typically have to address major difficulties due to the limited
   resources available for selecting and adopting a new software system.
   Objective: This paper aims to provide support for selecting the open
   source software that is most suitable to the specific needs of an
   enterprise from among the options offering equivalent or overlapping
   functionality.
   Method: This paper proposes a framework for evaluating the quality and
   functionality of open source software systems. The name of the framework
   is EFFORT (Evaluation Framework for Free/Open souRce projecTs). It
   supports the evaluation of product quality, community trustworthiness
   and product attractiveness. The framework needs to be customised to the
   analysis of software systems for a specific context.
   Results: The paper presents the customisation of EFFORT for evaluating
   Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) open source software systems. The
   customised framework was applied to the evaluation and comparison of
   five ERP open source software systems. The results obtained permitted
   both the refinement of the measurement framework and the identification
   of the ERP open source software system that achieved the highest score
   for each chosen characteristic.
   Conclusion: EFFORT is a useful tool for evaluating and selecting an open
   source software system. It may significantly reduce the amount of
   negotiation conducted among an enterprise's members and reduce the time
   and cost required for gathering and interpreting data. The EFFORT
   framework also considers the users' opinions by introducing relevance
   markers associated with the metrics and questions in the data
   aggregation process. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

   with multiple flow direction (MFD) drainage networks. Nowadays, some
   solutions have been explored, but focusing on Graphical Processing Units

   advantage that uses free software such as Octave and MPI wrap for it.

Abstract = {Development of rifle electronic simulators (i.e. for hand weapons and
   not using ammunition) is an important task, since the production of any
   type of small arms according to regulatory documents also requires the
   production of a simulator to instill aiming and firing skills. A family
   of electronic shooting simulators ``STrIzh{''} of four levels of
   implementation: initial, basic, professional and special is described.
   Structural diagrams of different configurations are given, functional
   purpose and capabilities of each level of simulators are shown. The
   initial level allows independent assemble the simulator from publicly
   available elements (laptop, webcam, weapon layouts, IR LEDs), which can
   contribute to widespread use both in schools and at home, but is low in
   accuracy and manufacturabili (requires daily calibration). The basic
   level also allows independent assemble the simulator, and less publicly
   available elements (laptop, projector, mockup weapons, laser emitters,
   FHD camera), which allows to be used both in schools and in DOSAAF
   structures, and has acceptable accuracy and manufacturability (a weekly
   calibration is enough, but assembling a mock-up weapon with laser
   emitters requires adjustments). It is recommended to limit the special
   level to virtual reality simulators, including a helmet with a
   smartphone and a mockup of a weapon with its smartphone which also
   contributes to its public availability and widespread use. The simulator
   software algorithm should fully support all implementation levels with
   different configurations and include a multimedia shooting training
   system. Mathematical models of external ballistics of thrown equipment
   for Kalashnikov assault rifle, Makarov pistol, hand-held anti-tank
   grenade launcher 7 products are described in detail, taking into account
   changes in atmospheric factors (temperature, air pressure, wind force)
   and dispersion of various types of ammunition. The above review of rifle
   simulators and their experience revealed the main trends of improvement
   - use of virtual reality and training not only direct shooting skills,
   but also training in the eligibility of the use of weapons, safe
   handling of them and even tactical interaction in the group.},

Abstract = {We have developed the Optimisation Support System (OSS), a spatial
   decision support system, to deliver optimal solutions to the problem of
   identifying comprehensive, adequate and representative locations for
   conservation planning.
   The South Australian Government is committed to establishing a
   comprehensive, adequate and representative system of 19 marine protected
   areas (MPAs) by 2010. Each MPA will be the target for detailed
   investigations into its biophysical, ecological, social, economic and
   cultural assets. The aim is to use this information to delineate each
   MPA into a series of zones that offer various levels of protection and
   use. At the highest level all marine use and extraction activities will
   be excluded to allow maximum protection of species diversity and
   habitat. Community consultation and collaboration is therefore critical
   for successful MPA establishment. A demand exists for the development of
   a process that allows public participation within a conservation
   planning environment.
   The concept of excluding certain activities, including recreational
   fishing, has generated much interest in the local media. Recent
   headlines such as `Calls to Shelve Marine Parks', `Anglers Fight For
   Future of Jetty Fishing' and `330+ Submissions on MPA Proposal'
   demonstrate the importance of open consultation and the need to provide
   an inclusive and transparent decision-making process for the design of
   MPAs. A decision support tool can facilitate decision-making within a
   negotiating and conflict resolution environment.
   We have collated and processed a large database of spatial layers
   describing the biophysical and human-use features of the marine
   environment. The biophysical data was then used to identify surrogate
   ecological regions within the Encounter Pilot MPA. The datasets were
   categorised into classes describing bathymetry, sea surface temperature,
   chlorophyll `a' concentration levels, benthic and coastal habitat types,
   and shoreline exposure and type. Locations that most efficiently
   represent these surrogates of biodiversity were selected using a common
   mathematical integer programming optimisation algorithm.
   Established conservation planning principles underpin this research.
   Inputs into OSS are a suite of environmental, social, cultural and
   economic datasets. Optimal solutions are found using integer programming
   algorithms. Implementation is within a Geographic Information System
   environment (ESRI's ArcGIS) and third-party commercial software (ILOG's
   CPLEX) provides the optimisation engine. The user interface of OSS can
   be accessed through a toolbar button and comprises a series of input
   modules. Fields are quick and easy to populate and in many cases are
   read directly from an ArcGIS map document Table of Contents. Solutions
   are found in less than 1 minute when using datasets described in this
   paper
   OSSThis paper briefly demonstrates the application of systematic
   conservation planning to optimal MPA design and the development of OSS,
   and explores options for public participation. We demonstrate how OSS
   and systematic conservation planning can be taken to the wider community
   to produce on-the-fly outputs. Our novel approach has the potential to
   build partnerships with community groups and give the community a sense
   of ownership in the decision-making process. It is more likely that
   conflicts will be minimised and negotiation hastened for a better MPA
   zoning outcome for all.},

Abstract = {Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) practitioners and developers are
   typically also users of their own systems: as a result, traditional
   software engineering (SE) processes (e.g., the requirements and design
   phases), take less time to articulate and negotiate among FLOSS
   developers. Design and requirements are kept more as informal knowledge,
   rather than formally described and assessed. This paper attempts to
   recover the SE concepts of software design and architectures from three
   FLOSS case studies, sharing the same application domain (i.e., Instant
   Messaging). Its first objective is to determine whether a common
   architecture emerges from the three systems, which can be used as shared
   knowledge for future applications. The second objective is to determine
   whether these architectures evolve or decay during the evolution of
   these systems. The results of this study are encouraging: albeit no
   explicit effort was done by FLOSS developers to define a high-level view
   of the architecture, a common shared architecture could be distilled for
   the Instant Messaging application domain. It was also found that, for
   two of the three systems, the architecture becomes better organised, and
   the components better specified, as long as the system evolves in time.},

Abstract = {Previous studies of Object-Oriented (00) software have reported
   avoidance of the inheritance mechanism and cast doubt on the wisdom of
   `deep' inheritance levels. From an evolutionary perspective, the picture
   is unclear - we still know relatively little about how, over time,
   changes tend to be applied by developers. Our conjecture is that an
   inheritance hierarchy will tend to grow `breadth-wise' rather than
   `depth-wise'. This claim is made on the basis that developers will avoid
   extending depth in favour of breadth because of the inherent complexity
   of having to understand the functionality of superclasses. Thus the goal
   of our study is to investigate this empirically. We conduct an empirical
   study of seven Java Open-Source Systems (OSSs) over a series of releases
   to observe the nature and location of changes within the inheritance
   hierarchies. Results showed a strong tendency for classes to be added at
   levels one and two of the hierarchy (rather than anywhere else). Over
   96\% of classes added over the course of the versions of all systems
   were at level I or level 2. The results suggest that changes cluster in
   the shallow levels of a hierarchy; this is relevant for developers since
   it indicates where remedial activities such as refactoring should be
   focused.},

   perceptions of other contributors. Method: We surveyed participants from
   15 FLOSS projects, asking a series of open-ended, closed-ended, and
   behavioral scale questions to gather information about the issue of
   gender in FLOSS projects. Results: Though many of those we surveyed
   expressed a positive sentiment towards females who participate in FLOSS
   projects, some were still strongly against their inclusion. Often, the
   respondents who were against inclusiveness also believed their own
   sentiments were the prevailing belief in the community, contrary to our
   findings. Others did not see the purpose of attempting to be inclusive,
   expressing the sentiment that a discussion of gender has no place in
   FLOSS. Conclusions: FLOSS projects have started to move forwards in
   terms of gender acceptance. However, there is still a need for more
   progress in the inclusion of gender-diverse contributors.},

Abstract = {When inspiring software developers to contribute to open source
   software, the act is often referenced as an opportunity to build tools
   to support the developer community. However, that is not the only charge
   that propels contributions-growing interest in open source has also been
   attributed to software developers deciding to use their technical skills
   to benefit a common societal good. To understand how developers identify
   these projects, their motivations for contributing, and challenges they
   face, we conducted 21 semi-structured interviews with OSS for Social
   Good (OSS4SG) contributors. From our interview analysis, we identified
   themes of contribution styles that we wanted to understand at scale by
   deploying a survey to over 5765 OSS and Open Source Software for Social
   Good contributors. From our quantitative analysis of 517 responses, we
   find that the majority of contributors demonstrate a distinction between
   OSS4SG and OSS. Likewise, contributors described definitions based on
   what societal issue the project was to mitigate and who the outcomes of
   the project were going to benefit. In addition, we find that OSS4SG
   contributors focus less on benefiting themselves by padding their resume
   with new technology skills and are more interested in leaving their mark
   on society at statistically significant levels. We also find that OSS4SG
   contributors evaluate the owners of the project significantly more than
   OSS contributors. These findings inform implications to help
   contributors identify high societal impact projects, help project
   maintainers reduce barriers to entry, and help organizations understand
   why contributors are drawn to these projects to sustain active
   participation.},

Journal = {COMPUTER METHODS AND PROGRAMS IN BIOMEDICINE},
Year = {2022},

Abstract = {Background/Aim: The current availability of large volumes of clinical
   data has provided medical departments with the opportunity for
   large-scale analyses, but it has also brought forth the need for an
   effective strategy of data-storage and data-analysis that is both
   technically feasible and economically sustainable in the context of
   limited resources and manpower. Therefore, the aim of this study was to
   develop a widely-usable data-collection and data-analysis workflow that
   could be applied in medical departments to perform high-volume
   relational data analysis on real-time data.
   Methods: A sample project, based on a research database on
   prostate-specific-membrane-antigen/positron-emission-tomography scans
   performed in prostate cancer patients at our department, was used to
   develop a new workflow for data-collection and data-analysis. A
   checklist of requirements for a successful data-collection/analysis
   strategy, based on shared clinical research experience, was used as
   reference standard. Software libraries were selected based on widespread
   availability, reliability, cost, and technical expertise of the research
   team (REDCap-v11.0.0 for collaborative data-collection, Python-v3.8.5
   for data retrieval and SQLite-v3.31.1 for data storage).
   The primary objective of this study was to develop and implement a
   workflow to: a) easily store large volumes of structured data into a
   relational database, b) perform scripted analyses on relational data
   retrieved in real-time from the database. The secondary objective was to
   enhance the strategy cost-effectiveness by using open-source/cost-free
   software libraries.
   Results: A fully working data strategy was developed and successfully
   applied to a sample research project. The REDCap platform provided a
   remote and secure method to collaboratively collect large volumes of
   standardized relational data, with low technical difficulty and
   role-based access-control. A Python software was coded to retrieve live
   data through the REDCap-API and persist them to an SQLite database,
   preserving data-relationships. The SQL-language enabled complex datasets
   retrieval, while Python allowed for scripted data computation and
   analysis. Only cost-free software libraries were used and the sample
   code was made available through a GitHub repository.
   Conclusions: A REDCap-based data-collection and data-analysis workflow,
   suitable for high-volume relational data-analysis on live data, was
   developed and successfully implemented using open-source software. (C)

Abstract = {The ability to correctly track objects in time-lapse sequences is
   important in many applications of microscopy. Individual object motions
   typically display a level of dynamic regularity reflecting the existence
   of an underlying physics or biology. Best results are obtained when this
   local information is exploited. Additionally, if the particle number is
   known to be approximately constant, a large number of tracking scenarios
   may be rejected on the basis that they are not compatible with a known
   maximum particle velocity. This represents information of a global
   nature, which should ideally be exploited too. Some time ago, we devised
   an efficient algorithm that exploited both types of information. The
   tracking task was reduced to a max-flow min-cost problem instance
   through a novel graph structure that comprised vertices representing
   objects from three consecutive image frames. The algorithm is explained
   here for the first time. A user-friendly implementation is provided, and
   the specific relaxation mechanism responsible for the method's
   effectiveness is uncovered. The software is particularly competitive for
   complex dynamics such as dense antiparallel flows, or in situations
   where object displacements are considerable. As an application, we
   characterize a remarkable vortex structure formed by bacteria engaged in
   interstitial motility.},

Journal = {INDUSTRIAL AND CORPORATE CHANGE},
Year = {2008},
Volume = {17},

Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {A systems analysis perspective is adopted to examine the critical
   properties of the Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) mode of
   innovation, as reflected on the SourceForge platform (SF.net). This
   approach re-scales Marchs (1991) framework and applies it to
   characterize the innovation system of a distributed organization of
   interacting agents in a virtual collaboration environment, rather than
   to innovation within a firm. March (1991) views the process of
   innovation at the organizational level as the coupling of sub-processes
   of exploration and exploitation. Correspondingly, the innovation system
   of the virtual collaboration environment represented by SF.net is an
   emergent property of two coupled processes: one involves the
   interactions among agents searching the locale for information and
   knowledge resources to use in designing novel software products (i.e.,
   exploration), and the other involves the mobilization of individuals
   capabilities for application in the software development projects that
   become established on the platform (i.e., exploitation). The
   micro-dynamics of this system are studied empirically by constructing
   transition probability matrices representing the movements of 222,835
   SF.net users among seven different activity states, which range from
   lurking (not contributing or contributing to projects without becoming a
   member) to laboring (joining one or more projects as members), and to
   launching (founding one or more projects) within each successive 6-month
   interval. The estimated probabilities are found to form first-order
   Markov chains describing ergodic processes. This makes it possible the
   computation of the equilibrium distribution of agents among the states,
   thereby suppressing transient effects and revealing persisting patterns
   of project joining and project launching. The latter show the FLOSS
   innovation process on SF.net to be highly dissipative: a very large
   proportion of the registered developers fail to become even minimally
   active on the platform. There is nevertheless an active core of mobile
   project joiners, and a (still smaller) core of project founders who
   persist in creating new projects. The structure of these groups
   interactions (as displayed within the 3-year period examined) is
   investigated in detail, and it is shown that it would be sufficient to
   sustain both the exploration and exploitation phases of the platforms
   global dynamics.},

   the usability criteria and abstract advanced knowledge in programming
   language by the developers, effectively provides the use and
   implementation of such resources by teachers in all areas of high school
   (in this first phase of the research) with few skills with technology.
   This is also due to the fact that many teachers consume much more
   resources and also the difficulties faced by teachers and developers in
   reusing their resources in other environments because they were
   initially designed for a specific environment. The method was based on
   the paradigm of Design Science Research (DSR), which allowed us to
   understand the problem and solve it creatively from useful artifacts.
   The three cycles of the research used questionnaires, interviews and
   documentary collection as instruments of data collection of the first
   cycle of survey and survey of the problem under study, while the
   non-participant observation and questionnaires were used in the second
   and third cycles at the time of evaluations of the system interfaces by

   while integrations to the Learning Management Systems (LMS) are being
   developed. Preliminary results showed the importance of Recreio
   incorporate tools of authorship of UoLs, preferably, free and online. In
   addition, users' reports made explicit the need for a space for sharing

   another space destined for exchanging experiences and learning with

Abstract = {The features and theoretical background of a new and free computational
   program for chemometric analysis denominated IMMAN (acronym for
   Information theory-based CheMoMetrics ANalysis) are presented. This is
   multi-platform software developed in the Java programming language,
   designed with a remarkably user-friendly graphical interface for the
   computation of a collection of information-theoretic functions adapted
   for rank-based unsupervised and supervised feature selection tasks. A
   total of 20 feature selection parameters are presented, with the
   unsupervised and supervised frameworks represented by 10 approaches in
   each case. Several information-theoretic parameters traditionally used
   as molecular descriptors (MDs) are adapted for use as unsupervised
   rank-based feature selection methods. On the other hand, a
   generalization scheme for the previously defined differential Shannon's
   entropy is discussed, as well as the introduction of Jeffreys
   information measure for supervised feature selection. Moreover,
   well-known information-theoretic feature selection parameters, such as
   information gain, gain ratio, and symmetrical uncertainty are
   incorporated to the IMMAN software (http://mobiosd-hub.com/imman-soft/),
   following an equal-interval discretization approach. IMMAN offers data
   pre-processing functionalities, such as missing values processing,
   dataset partitioning, and browsing. Moreover, single parameter or
   ensemble (multi-criteria) ranking options are provided. Consequently,
   this software is suitable for tasks like dimensionality reduction,
   feature ranking, as well as comparative diversity analysis of data
   matrices. Simple examples of applications performed with this program
   are presented. A comparative study between IMMAN and WEKA feature
   selection tools using the Arcene dataset was performed, demonstrating
   similar behavior. In addition, it is revealed that the use of IMMAN
   unsupervised feature selection methods improves the performance of both
   IMMAN and WEKA supervised algorithms.

Number = {59},

Abstract = {George Eliot's The Mill on the Floss is obviously the result of generic
   interferences, the diegesis borrowing a lot from the traditional family
   saga, but also from the complex structure of classical tragedy, Eliot's
   understanding of the direct social consequences of Darwin's theories,
   and the oblique presence of the supernatural with the final overflowing
   of the Floss. The Mill on the Floss is thus a novel whose structure is
   wholly based on the blending of several types and subgenres. The novel
   itself depends on the combination of several discourses, which enrich
   each other and obliquely create the conditions of their compatibility.
   The very end of the novel thus benefits from the melodramatic dimension
   and tradition it seems to imitate, whereas the novel itself cannot be
   termed a melodrama. In The Mill on the Floss, each subgenre directly
   redefines George Eliot's novel and creates the possibility of the
   blending of different genres and types.},

Abstract = {OSS/BSS-systems used by telecommunication companies to conduct their
   business are a combination of several subsystems that closely interact
   with each other. Since the activities of telecommunications companies
   are related to the processing of personal data of individuals and legal
   entities, such systems should be subjected to testing, which should
   continue until the end of the life cycle. The huge size of
   telecommunications companies' databases, as well as the number of tests
   required to cover the entire functionality of OSS/BSS-systems are an
   obstacle to conducting rapid testing. This article describes an approach
   to testing organization that solves this problem, based on the selection
   and keeping the test data up to date. The effectiveness of the proposed
   approach has been demonstrated experimentally.},

Abstract = {Today, it is widely accepted that if refactoring is applied in practice,
   it is mainly interweaved with normal software development - so called
   ``floss refactoring{''}. Unfortunately, the current state-of-the-art is
   poorly equipped to mine floss refactoring from version histories, mainly
   because they infer refactorings by comparing two snapshots of a system
   and making educated guesses about the precise edit operations applied in
   between. In this paper we propose a solution that reconstructs
   refactorings not on snapshots of a system but using the actual changes
   as they are performed in an integrated development environment. We
   compare our solution against RefFinder and demonstrate that on a small
   yet representative program (the well-known ``VideoRental system{''}) our
   approach is more accurate in identifying occurrences of the
   ``MOVEMETHOD{''} and ``RENAMEMETHOD{''} refactorings.},

   that the Marangoni effect can be taken into account, which is a main
   driver of heat transfer in additive manufacturing processes that

   open-source projects by considering a wide range of physical effects,
   e.g. multiple phases, melting, solidification, evaporation, and laser
   beam heat sources with an arbitrary intensity distribution and thus
   makes it an appealing framework, especially for the simulation of the
   laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process. Herein, all relevant details and
   derivation considering the Marangoni effect are provided and validated
   by means of a benchmark problem by comparing the obtained results with
   the available analytical solution, with the results obtained from a
   commercial CFD tool and with the results of other authors. The modified

Abstract = {Sustainability in Open Source Software (OSS) projects is crucial for
   long-term innovation, community support, and the enduring success of
   open-source solutions. Although multitude of studies have provided
   effective models for OSS sustainability, their practical implications
   have been lacking because most identified features are not amenable to
   direct tuning by developers (e.g., levels of communication, number of
   commits per project).
   In this paper, we report on preliminary work toward making models more
   actionable based on evidence-based findings from prior research. Given a
   set of identified features of interest to OSS project sustainability, we
   performed a comprehensive literature review related to those features to
   uncover practical, evidence-based advice, which we call Researched
   Actionables (ReACTs). The ReACTs are practical advice with specific
   steps, found in prior work to associate with tangible results. Starting
   from a set of sustainability-related features, this study contributes
   105 ReACTs to the SE community by analyzing 186 published articles.
   Moreover, this study introduces a newly developed tool (ReACTive)
   designed to enhance the exploration of ReACTs through visualization
   across various facets of the OSS ecosystem. The ReACTs idea opens new
   avenues for connecting SE metrics to actionable research in SE in
   general.},

   specializing the model for a particular application. The OSS method is
   used in the CrIS and CMIS retrieval algorithms and it is currently being
   implemented in the Joint Center for Satellite Assimilation (JCSDA)
   Community Radiative Transfer Model (CRTM). A version of OSS is currently
   under development for direct inclusion within MODTRAN (TM), as an
   alternative to the current band models. This paper discusses the OSS
   interface to MODTRAN (TM), presents model results, and identifies new
   developments applicable to narrowband and broadband radiative transfer
   modeling across the spectrum and the training of OSS for scattering

Abstract = {Among all the reasons that leads to the success or failure of a
   Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) project, understanding the
   system's evolution can reveal important pieces of information to open
   source stakeholders, helping them to identify what can be improved in
   the software system's internal organization. Once software complexity is
   one of the most important attributes to determine software
   maintainability, controlling its level in the system evolution process
   makes the software easier to maintain, reducing the maintainability
   costs. Otherwise, uncontrolled complexity makes the maintenance and
   enhancement process lengthy, more costly and some times it can
   contribute to the system abandonment. This work investigates the
   evolution of complexity in discontinued FLOSS projects. After several
   analyses, the results showed that inactive FLOSS projects do not seem to
   be able to keep up with the extra work required to control the systems
   complexity, presenting a different behaviour of the successful active
   FLOSS projects.},

Abstract = {IT naive, low-budget end-users - such as those in most small to medium
   enterprises or small city governments - require specific applications
   which are usually simple information systems with no technological
   challenges. Their low budget characteristics make the vertical
   applications these users need natural targets for free/open source
   software (F/OSS) development efforts. The lack of technological
   challenges however, does not motivate experienced programmers to
   specify, code and test verticals. We are thus left with a problem of
   developing verticals which do not attract ROSS volunteers and whose
   end-users are not even able to specify them (they are IT naive) nor pay
   for professional help to do the job for them. This paper proposes a
   solution to such a problem. The solution is organized in the form of a
   university level F/OSS vertical development contest, which involves
   computer science professors as project leaders and students as
   ``volunteered{''} programmers. Quality of the produced software is
   guaranteed by means of contest infrastructure, services, support kits
   which bring vertical seed code, coding and documentation standards and
   code reviews by the contest steering committee members. One such contest
   is being carried out in Brazil with the engagement of 5 universities to
   gain experience and evaluate contest risks, effectiveness and running
   processes. Results so far are encouraging having produced an already
   useful city government application. Results also indicated required
   adjustments in the technical details and procedures but also high levels
   of professor and student motivation. A nation-wide contest to produce
   more verticals for small city governments is scheduled to happen next.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) or Free/Libre OSS (FLOSS) has become an
   interesting source of research in software engineering. However, it has
   been criticized that FLOSS development is often considered as a

   evidence. Proper empirical methods that can shed light into FLOSS
   development are desirable. In this paper, we propose an empirical method
   to validate a software development model for FLOSS, the Adapted Staged
   Model for FLOSS. We mined some selected metrics from Apache Ivy and
   study their evolution using S-shaped curves. Our results indicate that
   S-shaped curves can model software evolution well for Ivy. Moreover, we
   demonstrated that our method can be used to identify successfully
   different stages of its development, validating part of the Adapted
   Staged Model for FLOSS.},

Abstract = {The Software Heritage (SWH) dataset represents an invaluable source of
   open-source code as it aims to collect, preserve, and share all publicly
   available software in source code form ever produced by humankind.
   Although designed to archive deduplicated small files thanks to the use
   of a Merkle tree as the underlying data structure, querying the SWH
   dataset presents challenges due to the nature of these structures, which
   organize content based on hash values rather than any locality
   principle. The magnitude of the repository, coupled with the
   resource-intensive nature of the download process, highlights the need
   for specialized infrastructure and computational resources to
   effectively handle and study the extensive dataset housed within SWH.
   Currently, there is a lack of infrastructures specifically tailored for
   running analytics on the SWH dataset, leaving users to handle these
   issues manually. To address these challenges, we implemented the
   SWH-Analytics (SWHA) framework, a development environment that
   transparently runs custom analytic applications on publicly available
   software data preserved over time by SWH. Specifically, this work shows
   how SWHA can be effectively exploited to study usage patterns of free
   and open-source software licenses, highlighting the need to improve
   license literacy among developers.},

Title = {The impact of participation in virtual brand communities on consumer
   trust and loyalty -: The case of free software},
Journal = {ONLINE INFORMATION REVIEW},
Year = {2007},
Volume = {31},
Number = {6},
Pages = {775-792},
Abstract = {Purpose - The importance of virtual brand communities is growing day by
   day as a result of consumers increasingly using online tools to contact
   fellow consumers in order to get information on which to base their
   decisions. For this reason, this work aims to explore some of the
   effects of participation in a virtual brand community on consumer
   behaviour.
   Design/methodology/approach - The paper proposes the positive effects of
   participation in a virtual community on both consumer trust and loyalty
   to the product, brand or organisation around which the community is
   developed. In addition, it also proposes a positive effect of trust on
   consumer loyalty. After the validations of measurement scales, the
   hypotheses are contrasted through structural modelling.
   Findings - The data, obtained through a web survey using members of
   several free software virtual communities, show that participation in
   the activities carried out in a virtual community may foster consumer
   trust and loyalty to the mutual interest of the community (the free
   software in this case). In addition, the study also found a positive and
   significant effect of consumer trust on loyalty.
   Research limitations/implications - Data were collected thanks to a web
   survey using Spanish-speaking subjects.
   Practical implications - The high costs every company has to face in
   order to get new customers make it increasingly necessary to reinforce
   the ties established with customers. In this respect, this study has
   shown that managers may foster consumer trust and loyalty by developing
   virtual brand communities and promoting consumers' participation in
   them.
   Originality/value - Most of the works that are focused on virtual
   communities have been conducted at the conceptual level. Thus, with the
   aim of moving on this topic, this study analyses empirically the effects
   of participation in a virtual brand community on consumer behaviour.},

Abstract = {The 3G environment is promising a wide range of services with a variety
   of pricing structures and billing schemes for use over different network
   operator domains, i.e., a federated environment. A key success factor is
   to respond to customers' desires to choose the billing scheme that suits
   their needs, to subscribe to all services as a service package, and to
   pay for them via a single bill regardless of service type, service
   location, service providers and network operators. Furthermore,
   customers may want to choose their services and compose a package
   dynamically without paying attention to the billing scheme used. The
   main premise of this paper is that pre-paid and post-paid billing
   schemes will merge and customers will use services according to their
   account balance and credits, as opposed to their billing scheme. The
   requirement on service providers is to use OSS (Operations Support
   System) functions and the accompanying information model to support
   diverse pricing and billing schemes, which is a complex task. This paper
   presents key OSS functions and an information model that tackle this
   complexity. Challenges are described and requirements are defined.
   Related efforts are highlighted, and the context surrounding this work
   is laid out in detail. Finally, individual entities of information model
   and OSS functions are defined and an example using flow-chart to
   illustrate interaction of functions is presented.},

Abstract = {Image reconstruction is an essential part of the magnetic resonance
   imaging process, and a whole field of research is dedicated to the
   development of reconstruction algorithms. For this reason, scanner
   manufacturers provide researchers with programming frameworks that give
   full control over the whole procedure. The drawback is that these
   environments are complex, and the code is non-portable and covered by
   non-disclosure agreements. In this article, a simplified framework based
   on a free scripting language (Lua) is presented. It is oriented to the
   development of postprocessing algorithms that are seamlessly integrated
   with the pipeline of a commercial scanner. The structure privileges
   simplicity over performance, to be quickly learned and used by
   researchers and students who might not be acquainted with low-level
   programming languages. Common postprocessing algorithms (contrast
   modulation, pixelwise fitting, phase-contrast imaging) could be
   implemented with similar to 100 logical lines of code or less, using a
   syntax that is similar to the Matlab programming language. The average
   performance of the reconstruction was lower with respect to the native
   implementation, but superior to offline postprocessing on a desktop
   computer, without the bottleneck of offline data export. (C) 2011 Wiley

Title = {Optimization of Revision Hip Arthroplasty Workflow by Means of Detailed

   Software and Three-Dimensional-Printed Models},
Journal = {DIAGNOSTICS},
Year = {2023},

Abstract = {Background. In revision hip arthroplasty (RHA), establishing the center
   of rotation (COR) can be technically challenging due to the acetabular
   bone destruction that is usually present, particularly in severe cases
   such as Paprosky type II and III defects. The aim of this study was to
   demonstrate the use of open-source medical image reconstruction software
   and low-cost 3D anatomical models in pre-surgical planning of RHA.
   Methods. A total of 10 patients, underwent RHA and were included in the
   study. Computed tomography (CT) scans were performed for all cases,
   before surgery and approximately 1 week after the procedure. The
   reconstruction of CT data, 3D virtual planning of the COR and
   positioning of acetabular cups, including their inclination and
   anteversion angles, was carried out using the free open source software
   platform 3D Slicer. In addition, anatomical models of the pelvis were
   built on a desktop 3D printer from polylactic acid (PLA). Preoperative
   and postoperative reconstructed imaging data were compared for each
   patient, and the position of the acetabular cups as well as the COR were
   evaluated for each case. Results. Analysis of the pre- and post-op
   center of rotation position data indicated statistically insignificant
   differences for the location of the COR on the X-axis (1.5 mm, t =
   0.5741, p = 0.5868) with a fairly strong correlation of the results (r =
   -0.672, p = 0.0982), whilst for the location of the COR in the Y and
   Z-axes, there was statistical dependence (Y axis, 4.7 mm, t = 3.168 and
   p = 0.0194; Z axis, 1.9 mm, t = 1.887 and p = 0.1081). A strong
   correlation for both axes was also observed (Y and Z) (Y-axis, r =
   0.9438 and p = 0.0014; Z-axis, r = 0.8829 and p = 0.0084). Analysis of
   inclination angle values showed a statistically insignificant difference
   between mean values (3.9 degrees, t = 1.111, p = 0.3092) and a moderate
   correlation was found between mean values (r = -0.4042, p = 0.3685).
   Analysis of the anteversion angle showed a statistically insignificant
   difference between mean values (1.9 degrees, t = 0.8671, p = 0.4192),
   while a moderate correlation between mean values was found (r = -0.4782,
   p = 0.2777). Conclusions. Three-dimensional reconstruction software,
   together with low-cost anatomical models, are very effective tools for
   pre-surgical planning, which have great potential use in orthopedic
   surgery, particularly RHA. In up and in- and up and out-type defects, it
   is essential to establish a new COR and to identify three support points
   within the revision acetabulum in order to correctly position acetabular
   cups.},

Year = {2016},
Volume = {34},

Pages = {101-106},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Background Moxibustion, a Traditional Chinese Medicine technique,
   involves burning moxa floss to apply heat to certain points or areas of
   the body surface to treat disease. Moxibustion releases a considerable
   amount of smoke into the environment. There remains controversy over the
   safety of moxa smoke and its potential effects on human health.
   Methods We measured the PM2.5 (particulate matter with aerodynamic
   diameter <2.5m) mass concentration in moxa smoke and the oxidative
   capacity of PM2.5 and moxa ash (using a plasmid scission assay in whole
   and water-soluble fractions) in the by-products of moxibustion produced
   from burning moxa floss of different ratios (3:1 or 15:1) and duration
   of storage (3 or 10years) in three simulated moxibustion clinics.
   Results PM2.5 mass concentration was 224.28, 226.39 and 210.56g/m(3) for
   samples A (3years and 3:1 ratio), B (3years and 15:1 ratio), and C
   (10years and 3:1 ratio), respectively. Average D-500 oxidative damage of
   PM2.5 was 29.42\%, 29.16\% and 27.01\% and that of moxa ash was 22.78\%,
   20.60\% and 21.42\% for samples A, B and C, respectively. PM2.5
   demonstrated a significantly greater oxidative capacity than moxa ash
   (p<0.05).
   Conclusions The oxidative DNA damage induced by individual PM2.5
   following moxibustion was lower than that reported in other
   environments. However, PM2.5 mass concentration after moxibustion is
   still relatively high. We would recommend ensuring adequate ventilation
   during moxibustion to reduce any possible risks. Further studies are
   needed to better define the potential impact of particles in moxibustion
   by-products on human health.},

Abstract = {Previous research has revealed that newcomer women are
   disproportionately affected by gender-biased barriers in open source
   software (OSS) projects. However, this research has focused mainly on
   social/cultural factors, neglecting the software tools and
   infrastructure. To shed light on how OSS tools and infrastructure might
   factor into OSS barriers to entry, we conducted two studies: (1) a field
   study with five teams of software professionals, who worked through five
   use cases to analyze the tools and infrastructure used in their OSS
   projects; and (2) a diary study with 22 newcomers (9 women and 13 men)
   to investigate whether the barriers matched the ones identified by the
   software professionals. The field study produced a bleak result:
   software professionals found gender biases in 73 percent of all the
   newcomer barriers they identified. Further, the diary study confirmed
   these results: Women newcomers encountered gender biases in 63 percent
   of barriers they faced. Fortunately, many kinds of barriers and biases

Abstract = {The use of digital platforms in social movements has given the Internet
   a central role in analyzing activism over the last decade. However,
   social networks' potential for social change has to be analyzed

   communities in Spain when using proprietary digital platforms. These
   communities include 1651 platforms, of which 1162 are proprietary, and
   489 are free. They describe a complex ecology in which they use
   proprietary platforms or free alternatives depending on their ultimate
   goals. The logic of technological corporations is notably imposed when
   communities aim to communicate with outsiders as commercial social

Abstract = {An issue that has confounded the understanding of software development
   in the past is the role that different numbers of developers play in the
   construction and subsequent evolution of software. In this paper, we
   investigate that facet of software using a configurable simulation
   framework as a basis. The framework uses `agents' to represent
   developers and models the costs associated with first comprehending and
   then applying necessary changes to a fictitious code base. It also
   considers agent `memory recall' of their own code as a fundamental part
   of the framework and the fact that, with higher numbers of developers,
   maintenance of a higher proportion of other developers' code (rather
   than their own) is an inevitable, yet realistic aspect. Through
   exploration of the results and data produced by the simulation. We are
   able to explore `desirable' features that are part of simulating
   software evolution; as a discussion of the issues raised by the
   framework, we provide a set of class data from four open-source systems
   by way of comparison and show that trends in those systems are
   comparable with results generated by the simulation. The paper thus
   provides evidence that we can use simulation tools to help model
   evolving systems, whether based on default settings or user-configurable
   settings.},

Title = {An open-source software for monitoring intrafraction motion during
   external beam radiation therapy based on superimposition of contours of
   projected ROIs on cine-MV images},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF APPLIED CLINICAL MEDICAL PHYSICS},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {21},
Number = {8},
Pages = {173-182},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Purpose To present an open-source software () for monitoring
   intrafraction motion that is based on the visualization of superimposed
   contours of projected region-of-interests from DICOM RTSTRUCT files on
   cine-MV images acquired and displayed in real-time during radiation
   therapy delivery. Clinical use with prostate gold fiducial markers is
   presented.
   Methods Projections of regions of interest (ROI) in the reference frame
   of the electronic portal imaging device are computed offline for
   different gantry angles before the first treatment fraction. During
   treatment delivery, the contrast of portal images is automatically
   adjusted using a histogram equalization algorithm. The projections
   associated with the current gantry angle are then superimposed on the
   images in real time. This allows the therapist to evaluate if the imaged
   structures of interest remain within their respective contours during
   treatment delivery and to potentially interrupt the treatment if deemed
   necessary. The spatial accuracy of the method was evaluated by imaging a
   ball bearing phantom in a set-up where the position of the projected ROI
   is highly sensitive to gantry angle errors. The visibility of fiducial
   markers during one fraction of seven different volumetric modulated arc
   therapy (VMAT) prostate treatments is characterized.
   Results The geometric validation showed a negligible systematic error mu
   < 0.1 mm for the position of the projections. The random errors
   associated with the time accuracy of the gantry angle readout were
   characterized by standard deviations sigma <= 0.6 mm. The VMAT clinical
   treatments showed that the fiducial markers were frequently visible,
   allowing for a meaningful clinical use.
   Conclusions The results demonstrate that the method presented is
   sufficiently accurate to be used for intrafraction monitoring of
   patients. The fact that this method could be implemented on many modern
   linacs at little to no cost and with no additional dose delivered to the
   patients makes this solution very attractive for improving patient care
   and safety in radiation therapy.},

Booktitle = {JAVA SOFTWARE AND EMBEDDED SYSTEMS},
Series = {Computer Science Technology and Applications},
Year = {2010},
Pages = {211-225},
Abstract = {Embedded real-time platforms are a basic component of both robots and
   machines for the automation of industrial processes. Although industrial
   applications traditionally rely on PLC-based hardware and, in any case,
   proprietary software, i.e. operating systems and development tools, in
   recent years dramatic improvements in hardware computer power and free
   software quality made realistic the employment of architectures based on
   PC-compatible hardware and GNU/Linux software, more common in the
   research community. The advantages of a free infrastructure, that can
   become the terrain of fruitful cooperation between research institutions
   and companies, can be exploited mainly in fields, in which the added
   value is in the application, i.e. in mechanical and algorithmic
   solutions, and where the point of view is that of aware users of an
   infrastructure, rather than of R\&D competitors. This is the case of the
   project presented in the following, representing a success story in
   which the discussion between a research group and a small enterprise led
   to the identification of the requirements and the joined development of
   a common software infrastructure. When the project started in 2004, both
   partners, i.e. the Autonomous robotic systems and control group of
   CNR-ISSIA and Green Project Srl, had to substitute the obsolete
   platforms of their marine robots and marking machines for casting
   products in steelworks with a stable software and hardware
   infrastructure able of transparently integrating technological
   improvements while remaining compatible with the past (backward
   compatibility). On the basis of considerations, discussed below, about
   system reliability, development and maintenance costs (including human
   resources), foreseen compatibility and general technical soundness, the
   choice was to verify the possibility of using standard GNU/Linux for
   embedded real-time applications. The result is the main technical
   contribution of this chapter, i.e. the practical demonstration of the
   possibility of using standard GNU/Linux for implementing embedded
   real-time control systems working up to a sampling frequency of at most
   2 Khz. Furthermore, four years later, the developed system is still
   demonstrating its capabilities transparently integrating technological
   improvements and increasing more and more its performance thanks to the
   new real-time properties of the Linux kernel.
   A first operative release of the platform was completed in 2005 and
   integrated with the CNR-ISSIA Charlie unmanned surface vehicle (USV) for
   robotics research.
   A second application was the porting to the platform of the software of
   the control system of Hammer, a steelwork industrial machine used for
   marking continuous casting products, developed by Greenproject s.r.l.
   At the moment, the platform is supporting the development of the ALANIS
   (Aluminium Autonomous Navigator for Intelligent Sampling) USV1 for
   surface and underwater coastal monitoring. Moreover, the integration
   with generic field buses and image acquisition systems is being carried
   out.
   After an introduction reporting a summary of related research in the
   field and a discussion of the platform requirements, the key points of
   the followed methodology for making GNU/Linux real-time will be
   presented. Finally, two applications, a research one and an industrial
   one, pointing out the basic real-time structures that the platform is
   required to implement, will be described.},

Abstract = {Background. The introduction of Open Source Software technologies in the
   Public Administration plays a key role in the spread of Open Source
   Software. The state of the art in the adoption of Open Source Software
   solutions in the Public Administration is not very well known even in
   areas like Lombardy, which is Italy's largest and most developed region.
   Goal. The goal of the investigation documented in this paper is to
   obtain a clear picture about the introduction of Open Source Software
   technologies in the Public Administration, the obstacles to their
   adoption, and the willingness of stakeholders to proceed with their
   introduction. Method. We carried out a qualitative and quantitative
   survey that was submitted to a representative part of the Public
   Administrations in Lombardy.
   Results. The analysis of the qualitative and quantitative information
   shows that several Public Administrations are already using Open Source
   Software technologies, though not in all application areas. The savings
   are one frequently cited incentive to the adoption of Open Source
   Software. However, one obstacle is the fact that a comprehensive law on
   software in the Public Administration has not yet been approved.
   Conclusions. Our analysis provides results that indicate a common
   understanding of incentives, obstacles, and opportunities for Open
   Source Software technologies in Public Administrations.},

   the feature's importance. Furthermore, we proposed a method to explore
   what features and how these features affect the prediction of issue
   resolution time. Experiments are conducted on a dataset of 46,735
   resolved issues from 18 popular GitHub projects to validate the

Abstract = {Recent researches provide evidence that women are underrepresented in
   the field of computer science. It has been reported that less than 10\%
   of Open Source Software (OSS) contributors in GitHub are women. Although
   related qualitative and quantitative studies point out the gender gap,
   the technical and social interaction of females within OSS still remain
   unexplored and largely misunderstood. As a first step towards proposing
   articulated actions towards diversity and inclusion, we need first to
   explore the gender gap in terms of activities and interactions. Thus, we
   propose to answer the questions: where are females in OSS projects? How
   they evolve? and How they contribute to the sustainability of the OSS
   social capital?. We particularly focus on building socio-technical
   networks and analyze them to explain how females contribute and interact
   in practice. We reflect on interactions' graphs and examine through a
   preliminary study, using data from six OSS projects, possible links
   between existing findings and the directions we suggest for more gender
   diversity. We found that females are extremely underrepresented within
   OSS communities, but when they participate they are productive just as
   males, they evolve following relatively the same patterns than males and
   remain more involved in projects than males.},

   market. The aim is to find out the strategies used by vendors in the OSS
   market. The market scope is studied on two dimensions: 1) the breadth of
   the scope in the OSS market; and 2) focus on the telecommunications
   industry. The breadth of market scope is divided into four categories:
   niche, vertical, layer and broad scope. We examine empirical vendor data
   from the years 2002 and 2005. Results show that all hypothesized
   strategies are present in the market. Most of the firms have either a
   niche, a vertical or a broad market scope, and they are specialized in
   telecommunications. The situation has not changed much from 2002 to
   2005, but the number of vendors has decreased.},

Abstract = {Equation-Defined Device models (EDD) have become very popular for
   behavioural modelling of semiconductor and other non-linear devices. Two
   feature that makes them particularly attractive are their interactive
   nature and easy testing during the model development process. However,
   they are less suited for operation as production level models due to
   their slow simulation performance. This paper presents a new extension
   to the EDD that offers C++ model performance coupled with the
   convenience of EDD modelling. The extended form of the EDD is called a
   Verilog-A EDD or VAEDD for short. It has the same structure as the
   standard EDD but is built around compiled Verilog-A module code, which
   in turn is translated to C++ code and dynamically linked to the main
   body of the simulator code. Essentially a VAEDD is a tiny Verilog-A
   module with a standardised internal code structure. To demonstrate the
   interactive approach to compact model building with VAEDD components the
   design and testing of a high power SiC Schottky barrier diode is
   included in the main body of the text.},

Abstract = {The Internet has favored the growth of collaborative platforms where
   marketers and consumers interact to develop more engaging products and
   services. These platforms are usually centered in a specific
   brand/product and their members are linked by a shared admiration to
   that brand. This paper analyzes one of the most powerful online
   collaborative platforms, the free software (FS) case, which involves a
   lot of virtual communities developed around products such as Linux or
   Android, the new Google's mobile operating system. Our purpose is to
   determine some of the main antecedents and consequences of the consumer
   involvement in this type of communities. Results have shown that
   satisfaction with a virtual community may increase the level of consumer
   participation in that community. At the same time, a greater
   identification with the virtual community may increase indirectly the
   consumer participation thanks to the enhancement of his/her satisfaction
   with the community. We have also found positive and significant effects
   of consumer identification and participation on the level of community
   promotion. Finally, positive and significant effects of consumer
   participation and satisfaction with the community on loyalty to the FS
   were also found. These findings allow us to conclude some interesting
   managerial implications. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Knowledge is an obtainable, renewable, dynamic, context-dependent
   resource that can be shared, and the knowledge sharing cycle has 2
   processes: knowledge donation, when a person voluntarily offers his/her
   intellectual capital to others, and knowledge collection, when a person
   consults other people's intellectual capital. Knowledge can be shared
   among individuals, groups, and organizations. A free software community
   is a type of community of practice arranged around a specific free
   software, where the knowledge shared is complex and the knowledge
   sharing processes have scarcely been studied. This investigation aims to
   identify the profiles of knowledge sharing processes in free software
   communities and examine how 6 motivations for sharing knowledge in free
   software communities are associated with each of the clusters. To
   accomplish this objective, a survey method was adopted, with 260
   respondents belonging to free software communities. Cluster analysis was
   used to interpret the data. Four clusters were identified: Sporadic
   Sharer; Collector; Donator; and Constant Sharer. With the exception of
   the Sporadic Sharer, all the clusters presented high values of both
   collection and donation, including the Donators and Collectors. These
   results confirm the view of free software communities as communities of
   practice and highlight the importance of knowledge sharing in free
   software development cycle. The results reveal the importance of the
   Constant Sharer profile, which has the highest rates of donation and
   collection and is also the profile in which all the motivations appear
   with the highest values, indicating its key role in the functioning of
   free software communities.},

   collaboration promotes more and more developers to join in OSS projects,
   while on the other hand, integrating new developers with teams is
   challenging and pivotal to the success of a project. In this paper, we
   propose a novel expert recommendation method, based on knowledge
   embedding, that realizes real-time recommendation for working
   developers. To capture structural information of source files in call
   graph, we use node2vec algorithm to convert file entities within
   projects into knowledge mappings within low-dimensional space, based on
   which we further propose four features to capture the work status and
   social relationship of developers. We then design a recommender system
   using random forest method to recommend appropriate experts for the
   developers. Experiments on 20 Apache OSS projects show that, compared
   with the baseline methods, our approach behaves significantly better in
   terms of a series of performance metrics.},

Journal = {EMPIRICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2022},

Abstract = {Several Open-Source Software (OSS) projects depend on the continuity of
   their development communities to remain sustainable. Understanding how
   developers become inactive or why they take breaks can help communities
   prevent abandonment and incentivize developers to come back. In this
   paper, we propose a novel method to identify developers' inactive
   periods by analyzing the individual rhythm of contributions to the
   projects. Using this method, we quantitatively analyze the inactivity of
   core developers in 18 OSS organizations hosted on GitHub. We also survey
   core developers to receive their feedback about the identified breaks
   and transitions. Our results show that our method was effective for
   identifying developers' breaks. About 94\% of the surveyed core
   developers agreed with our state model of inactivity; 71\% and 79\% of
   them acknowledged their breaks and state transition, respectively. We
   also show that all core developers take breaks (at least once) and about
   a half of them (similar to 45\%) have completely disengaged from a
   project for at least one year. We also analyzed the probability of
   transitions to/from inactivity and found that developers who puce their
   activity have a similar to 35 to similar to 55\% chance to return to an
   active state; yet, if the break lasts for a year or longer, then the
   probability of resuming activities drops to similar to 21-26\%, with a
   similar to 54\% chance of complete disengagement. These results may
   support the creation of policies and mechanisms to make OSS community
   managers aware of breaks and potential project abandonment.},

Abstract = {Open source is widely used for educational purposes in higher education

   our experience on establishing open source development from student
   contributors as part of their university curriculum. Since 2010 more
   than 300 students from Graz University of Technology have been involved
   in the presented Catrobat project and have gained knowledge about agile
   software development as well as several related domains, e.g., project
   management, marketing, or graphical design. In this paper we provide
   detailed insights into the project's organization and evaluate in a
   study how students feel in this setting. As we conclude, bringing open
   source to university courses is an effective practical approach based on
   social learning and provides benefits for students and researchers.},

Abstract = {The advances experienced in the Information and Communication
   Technologies and the popularization of the devices with computing
   capacity have promoted the use of simulators, programs and programming
   languages as educational resources. However, the use of these tools for
   education purposes faces important barriers: the availability of the
   resources, the cost and the students' perception, among many others.
   These problems might be overcome by the use of free software simulators.
   In this paper, we present several experiences using free software tools
   in engineering Higher Education courses. The experiences shown cover
   several courses of different engineering Degrees: ``Electronics and
   Automation{''}, ``Electrical Engineering{''}, ``Computing{''} and
   ``Industrial Technologies{''}. These tools have been used in teaching
   activities for several years. As a result, the perceptions, gained
   experience and views of the teachers involved in the different courses
   are presented and discussed. Teachers specially valued the independence
   of the tools from commercial policies, as well as the suppression of
   expensive licenses. Additionally, they perceived that students
   understood better the simulations performed since all the parts of the
   tools could be freely accessed. They also remarked the possibility of
   changing the code at low level and fuse different free software projects
   together, what is not possible with the commercial tools. In addition,
   free software resources allowed students to start in a very common world
   currently, the collaborative communities, which may be of great
   importance in their future professional activities. However, teachers
   involved in these experiences also detected several drawbacks. In some
   cases, free software simulators are less robust than their commercial
   alternatives, which usually pay special attention at the design, being
   perceived by students as a signal of higher quality. In some simulators
   the documentation is incomplete, and there is a lack of easy-to-use
   examples which hinders the use of the tool by low-experienced users such
   as first-year students. The opportunities and threats faced by these
   tools are also discussed, concluding that when selecting an educational
   resource, the free software resources must be considered as perfectly
   valid options in the same conditions as the proprietary solutions.},

   This pattern comes from the differences in attracting coding
   contributors and discussion contributors. To understand the causes of
   the differences, we then build game-theoretical models of the
   contribution situation. Based on these results, we again analyzed the
   projects empirically to support the outcome of the models, and found
   empirical evidence. The answers to the initial questions are clear. To
   incentivize developers to code, the projects should prepare documents,
   or the projects or third parties should hire developers, and these are
   what sustainable projects in GitHub did in reality. In addition, making
   innovations to reduce the writing costs can also have an impact in
   attracting coding contributors.},

Title = {Hybrid Overlap Filter for LiDAR Point Clouds Using Free Software},
Journal = {REMOTE SENSING},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {12},
Number = {7},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Despite the large amounts of resources destined to developing filtering
   algorithms of LiDAR point clouds in order to obtain a Digital Terrain
   Model (DTM), the task remains a challenge. As a society advancing
   towards the democratization of information and collaborative processes,
   the researchers should not only focus on improving the efficacy of
   filters, but should also consider the users' needs with a view toward
   improving the usability and accessibility of the filters in order to
   develop tools that will provide solutions to the challenges facing this
   field of study. In this work, we describe the Hybrid Overlap Filter
   (HyOF), a new filtering algorithm implemented in the free R software
   environment. The flow diagram of HyOF differs in the following ways from
   that of other filters developed to date: (1) the algorithm is formed by
   a combination of sequentially operating functions (i.e., the output of
   the first function provides the input of the second), which are capable
   of functioning independently and thus enabling integration of these
   functions with other filtering algorithms; (2) the variable
   penetrability is defined and used, along with slope and elevation, to
   identify ground points; (3) prior to selection of the seed points, the
   original point cloud is processed with the aim of removing points
   corresponding to buildings; and (4) a new method based on a moving
   window, with longitudinal overlap between windows and transverse overlap
   between passes, is used to select the seed points. Our hybrid filtering
   method is tested using 15 reference samples acquired by the
   International Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) and
   is evaluated in comparison with 33 existing filtering algorithms. The
   results show that our hybrid filtering method produces an average total
   error of 3.34\% and an average Kappa coefficient of 92.62\%. The
   proposed algorithm is one of the most accurate filters that has been
   tested with the ISPRS reference samples.},

   proposes a set of free tools to produce presentation content and design
   focusing on RealPlayer as delivery client. The integration in this
   e-learning platform of multimedia compositions developed following the
   proposed technique is also presented.
   Findings - Technological support to learning and teaching has become
   widespread due to computers and internet ubiquity. Particularly

Abstract = {An audiometric free software equipment for clinical use is presented in
   this paper. The software construction process needed software
   engineering techniques in elicitation and requirements specification,
   architecture model view controllers (MVC) and web engineering was
   required for building process. During this process was possible to
   manage the information concerning to the audiometric test, the operation
   frequency and their respective intensity levels. The stages for hardware
   construction involve of a phase of electronic amplification,
   multiplexing, demultiplexing and filtering to ensure the purity of the
   generated tone. This audiometer was calibrated and certified by a
   specialized laboratory for audiological equipment in accordance with ISO
   389-1, ISO 389-3, IEC 373, IEC 303 Standards. The final result was a
   low-cost audiometer with high reliability and adjusted to international
   standards to be used in air and bone test.},

Abstract = {Spatial data infrastructures (SDI) are extremely important in order to
   combine the technical and organizational elements required to promote
   the use of territory-based information in an interoperable way. In fact,
   geographic information has unique intrinsic features, which makes it a
   natural indexing mechanism for spatial data. Due to its high cost and
   upgrade dynamics, this information should be available for reuse and
   should be managed and maintained by those responsible for producing it
   as part of management interventions in the territory. Therefore, it is
   important that different spatial data infrastructures, developed at
   different hierarchical levels, coexist and communicate in an
   interoperable way so that they can constitute a spatial basis of
   reference that facilitates the integration with other sectorial
   applications. This ongoing work proposes the implementation of a
   regional spatial data infrastructure based on free software, in
   compliance with the principles of the EU INSPIRE Directive and with the

Abstract = {The outbreak process of algal bloom is a complex ecological problem of
   system engineering involving various factors such as water parameters,
   surrounding environment and human activity. For this ecological problem,
   the strict restriction and requirement limit the development of
   management about algae bloom. To select the most suitable strategy from
   various algae control methods, we propose case-based reasoning-optimal
   strategy selection (CBR-OSS) model. It builds case library and complex
   network by extracting the factors of algae management. This model
   regards the complex network as a directive network to reflect dynamic
   characteristic and weights of key factors. To improve decision
   efficiency, it defines the restriction slots and condition slots in
   directive network. As the inference engine, these slots exclude the
   unsuitable cases and avoid the redundancy computation so that the model
   can calculate the similarity between the target water body and screen
   cases in the process of decision case matcher. This process finds the
   best matching case and recommended measures by intuitionistic fuzzy
   rough sets. To verify the model, Kunming Lake and other 20 lakes are
   simulated with the proposed method. The results accord with expert
   advice and the model outperforms in accuracy, operation time, expert
   participation and flexibility.},

Abstract = {Recent downturns in the IT industry have brought about corresponding
   reductions in the monies available to organisations for the purchase of
   software. As a consequence open source software is now viewed more
   favourably than in the past, with increased penetration in all markets.
   Despite the success of these inroads and the cost savings involved in
   switching to open source software, proprietary software remains far and
   away the predominant product of choice.
   In this paper we discuss some results of research into why public and
   private organisations select a particular software solution over
   another. We examine the criteria that make one item of software more
   attractive to an organisation and compare and contrast software
   selection in both the public and private sectors. Ultimately we show
   that OSS is a competitive alternative to proprietary software and that
   the criteria on which organisations base their software selection, can
   be met by OSS products.},

   have made rapid progress with the dissemination of computer systems in

   In this paper, we propose a method of software reliability assessment
   based on stochastic differential equations. Especially, we derive
   several assessment measures in terms of imperfect debugging. Also, we
   analyze actual software fault-count data to show numerical examples of
   software reliability assessment for an embedded open source software.
   Further, it has been necessary to manage the software development
   process in terms of reliability, effort, and release time. Then, we find
   the optimal release time based on the total expected software

Abstract = {Information and communication technology (ICT) has tremendously expanded
   over the last three decades making the access to right information at
   the right time feasible ensuring the success of an individual,

   revolution one must be in a position to afford and completely comprehend
   what is offered by this technology. Unfortunately most of the software
   are controlled by proprietary that are economically unaffordable for
   developing countries and are based on a on language that is not
   comprehendible by their masses. Software localization of Free and Open
   Source Software (FOSS) is an effort that addresses this Software (FOSS)
   is an effort that addresses this twofold dilemma. FOSS made software
   affordable while localization bridges the language barrier that helps
   people to fully comprehend and utilize the benefits of ICT In this
   research we have explored various aspects of the software localization
   of free and open source operating system (FOSOS) and developed a working

Abstract = {The last decade has witnessed the rapid growth of open-source software
   (OSS). Still, all contributors may find it difficult to assimilate into
   the OSS community even they are enthusiastic to make contributions. We
   thus suggest that partner recommendation across different roles may
   benefit both the users and developers, i.e., once we are able to make
   successful recommendation for those in need, it may dramatically
   contribute to the productivity of developers and the enthusiasm of
   users, thus further boosting OSS projects' development. Motivated by
   this potential, we model the partner recommendation as link prediction
   task from email data via network embedding methods. In this article, we
   introduce time-series snapshot network (TSSN) that is a mixture network
   to model the interactions among users and developers. Based on the
   established TSSN, we perform temporal biased walk (TBW) to automatically
   capture both temporal and structural information of the email network,
   i.e., the behavioral similarity between individuals in the OSS email
   network. Experiments on ten Apache data sets demonstrate that the
   proposed TBW significantly outperforms a number of advanced random
   walk-based embedding methods, leading to the state-of-the-art
   recommendation performance.},

Abstract = {Developing systems by integrating Open Source Software (OSS) is
   increasingly gaining importance in the software industry. Although the

   demonstrate this statement. To explore and understand problems and
   challenges of current system requirement-OSS component matching and
   mismatches resolution practices in software development projects that
   integrate one or more OSS components into their software products.
   Semi-structured in-depth interviews with 25 respondents that have
   performed RE activities in software development projects that integrate
   OSS components in 25 different software development companies in Spain,
   Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. The study uncovers 15 observations
   regarding system requirements-OSS components matching and mismatch
   resolution practices used in industrial projects that integrate OSS
   components. The assessed projects focused mainly on pre-release stages
   of software applications that integrate OSS components in an
   opportunistic way. The results also provide details of a set of
   previously unexplored scenarios when solving system requirement-OSS
   component mismatches; and clarify some challenges and related problems.
   For instance, although licensing issues and the potential changes in OSS
   components by their corresponding communities and/or changes in system
   requirements have been greatly discussed in the RE literature as
   problems for OSS component integration, they did not appear to be
   relevant in our assessed projects. Instead, practitioners highlighted

   the spatial analysis to other types of attribute data. In this paper we
   present a methodology for the automatic production of ortophotos in
   urban areas by using UAVs and open source photogrammetric software. The
   potential and limits of this technology are assessed in the context of
   updating a municipal spatial database. The results show that the
   synergistic use of UAVs and open source photogrammetric software can be
   effectively used to produce ortophototos of small urban areas with an
   excellent quality/price ratio.},

Abstract = {Adhoc networking is not supported by Google in basic Android kernel as
   part of Android Open Source Project (AOSP). Various projects are in hand
   by different organizations to explore and implement the Mobile Adhoc
   Networking (MANET) feature on Android based devices due to their
   peculiar infrastructure-less requirements (such as disaster management,
   nomadic battle fields having no communication infrastructure, search and
   rescue operations etc). These projects carrying out research on MANETs
   have successfully implemented adhoc networking on few targeted devices,
   hence implementation of Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) on every new
   Android based device is quite challenging in nature. We have researched
   on Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) devices (such mobile phones and
   tablets) to implement adhoc networking using open source software (OSS)
   such as Serval Mesh, MANET Manager, WiFi Tether applications. We have
   also modified the TrevE-Mod WiFi Tether application to work successfully
   with MANET Manager and Linux/ Windows based Personal Computers (PCs) in
   an adhoc network. The results achieved by performance evaluation tools
   and testing of VoIP applications have proved it to be satisfactory. We
   have also satisfactorily implemented, configured and tested point to
   point Virtual Private Network (VPN) between MANET nodes using OSS (VPN
   Server, OpenVPN for Android, OpenVPN Connect). The application of
   standards based security algorithms (for authentication and encryption
   in VPNs) demonstrates that these technologies can be effectively used
   for secure collaboration in adhoc environments as well.},

Title = {Identifying the quality characteristics of pork floss structure based on
   deep learning framework},
Journal = {CURRENT RESEARCH IN FOOD SCIENCE},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {7},
Abstract = {Pork floss is a traditional Chinese food with a long history. Nowadays,
   pork floss is known to consumers as a leisure food. It is made from pork
   through a unique process in which the muscle fibers become flaky or
   granular and tangled. In this study, a deep learning-based approach is
   proposed to detect the quality characteristics of pork floss structure.
   Describe that the experiments were conducted using widely recognized
   brands of pork floss available in the grocery market, omitting the use
   of abbreviations. A total of 8000 images of eight commercially available
   pork flosses were collected and processed using sharpening, image gray
   coloring, real-time shading correction, and binarization. After the
   machine learning model learned the features of the pork floss, the
   images were labeled using a manual mask. The coupling of residual
   enhancement mask and region-based convolutional neural network
   (CRE-MRCNN) based deep learning framework was used to segment the
   images. The results showed that CRE-MRCNN could be used to identify the
   knot features and pore features of different brands of pork floss to
   evaluate their quality. The combined results of the models based on the
   sensory tests and machine vision showed that the pork floss from TC was
   the best, followed by YJJ, DD and HQ. This also shows the potential of
   machine vision to help people recognize the quality characteristics of
   pork floss structure.},

Abstract = {Primary health care (PHC) is the first point of contact people have with
   a health system. As such access to PHC services is an important factor
   to ensure good health of a community. While the need to provide equal
   and easy access to PHC is well understood, the approaches informing the
   decision-making process to improve the access tend to face a number of
   challenges in the developing world. Use of conventional Information and
   Communication Technologies (ICTs) comes with requisite financial costs
   which Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) ICT technologies have the
   potential to help lower among other benefits. In this study, the
   confluence of spatial accessibility tools provided by FOSS technologies,
   specifically PostgreSQL/PostGIS and QGIS, was explored to inform
   decision making in PHC accessibility in Zomba, Malawi. The results show
   that the household population (P) that is within the threshold time was
   8, representing \% of all households having access to health care. The
   mean accessibility score for the district was 0.010 and ranged from 0.00
   to 0.231. While the findings provide, arguably, spatially objective PHC
   accessibility data to inform policy direction and also reveals
   accessibility to PHC in Malawi to be lower than reported, the study also
   reveals the usefulness of FOSS technologies, in the developing world.
   Use of FOSS facilitated incremental setup of the model thereby allowing
   to run the model with limited processing power. That notwithstanding,
   the study adds to the formal scientific research on the use of
   relational spatial analysis in the developing world.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) previously regarded as a fad by many
   academics has been rapidly adopted by both public and private sector
   organizations. The challenge facing most organizations is how to
   evaluate OSS adoption benefits. OSS adoption is a complex phenomenon
   which requires an interdisciplinary approach to understand the
   socio-technical, political, economic and legal benefits. The complexity
   of the OSS phenomenon has resulted in fiercely contested, contradictory
   rhetorical discussions among divided parties with no conclusive general
   agreement. The one size fits all approach is fundamentally flawed for
   evaluating OSS benefits in organizations as they are both subjective and
   contextual. In this paper we propose a framework to balance the needs of
   hard (objective) benefits and soft (subjective) benefits of OSS adoption
   in public sector organizations. This paper proposes a framework to
   evaluate benefits of OSS adoption in public-sector organizations, since
   one-size-fits-all approaches have shortcomings to complex phenomena.},

Title = {Effort estimation of FLOSS projects: a study of the Linux kernel},
Journal = {EMPIRICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {18},
Number = {1},
Pages = {60-88},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Empirical research on Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) has shown
   that developers tend to cluster around two main roles: ``core{''}
   contributors differ from ``peripheral{''} developers in terms of a
   larger number of responsibilities and a higher productivity pattern. A
   further, cross-cutting characterization of developers could be achieved
   by associating developers with ``time slots{''}, and different patterns
   of activity and effort could be associated to such slots. Such analysis,
   if replicated, could be used not only to compare different FLOSS
   communities, and to evaluate their stability and maturity, but also to
   determine within projects, how the effort is distributed in a given
   period, and to estimate future needs with respect to key points in the
   software life-cycle (e.g., major releases). This study analyses the
   activity patterns within the Linux kernel project, at first focusing on
   the overall distribution of effort and activity within weeks and days;
   then, dividing each day into three 8-hour time slots, and focusing on
   effort and activity around major releases. Such analyses have the
   objective of evaluating effort, productivity and types of activity
   globally and around major releases. They enable a comparison of these
   releases and patterns of effort and activities with traditional software
   products and processes, and in turn, the identification of
   company-driven projects (i.e., working mainly during office hours) among
   FLOSS endeavors. The results of this research show that, overall, the
   effort within the Linux kernel community is constant (albeit at
   different levels) throughout the week, signalling the need of updated
   estimation models, different from those used in traditional 9am-5pm,
   Monday to Friday commercial companies. It also becomes evident that the
   activity before a release is vastly different from after a release, and
   that the changes show an increase in code complexity in specific time
   slots (notably in the late night hours), which will later require
   additional maintenance efforts.},

   community of an open source software project is investigated in order to
   perform process conformance checking. Actual data that reveal the
   process steps have been extracted from the project's Bugzilla database
   and have been used as input in Disco process mining tool. The data
   includes extracted information for more than 19,000 bugs for the past 15
   years in a csv form, formatted appropriately to construct an event log
   suitable for process mining. The extracted models have been compared to
   the process described in the project's blogs and wikis by the community.
   The same models are also compared to the bug closure process that
   Bugzilla suggests to be used by the projects using this software for bug
   tracking purposes. The findings reveal that indeed the process followed
   in the OSS project is very similar to the declared one but variations do
   occur under specific circumstances. However, the process is not
   identical to the one proposed by Bugzilla suggesting that each OSS
   project can customize its processes in order to better address the needs
   of the project and the community. This empirical research highlights the

Abstract = {Social cartography empowers communities to create maps that represent

   mapping aims at making visible physical space features corresponding to
   particular interests, for example: hydrants, accessibility, or public

   mapping process to the digital realm, streamlining the management of
   maps and expanding its application opportunities. Free software tools
   for geospatial data and information management contribute to mapping
   processes by encouraging collaboration through the reduction of entry
   barriers, which can range from economical hurdles to data privacy
   related issues. OSMTracker for Android is a free software geospatial
   data capturing tool that runs on the Android operating system. The

   a view to contributing towards its establishment as a valid model for
   permanent education in the Basque Autonomous Community; later publishing
   and disseminating the conclusions reached to Universities, schools,
   education agents and companies.
   Results:
   In general, the results obtained through the project have been:
   - To research and test the different open source online learning
   platforms that enable the provision of MOOC-style education.
   - To give teachers (indispensable vector) the opportunity to generate
   `massive open online courses' by themselves, as this group has few
   conceptual and pragmatic references that suggest how to approach the
   work from this new perspective.
   - To promote the implementation of this new trend in education among
   teachers, leading to education free of charge provided by platforms that
   are accessible through the Internet and focused on very large groups of
   people. MOOCs are usually based on up-to-date material, are focused on
   practical aspects and have a curriculum that depends on the interests of
   the pupils.
   - To study the problems and technological needs that arise when defining
   and developing MOOCs.
   - To disseminate the study carried out throughout the education
   community (Universities, schools, education agents and companies) and to
   provide solutions to the extent possible.},

Abstract = {Development and interpretation of morphometric maps are important tools
   in studies related to neotectonics and geomorphology; Geographic
   Information Systems (GIS) allows speed and precision to this process,
   but applied methodology will vary according to available tools and
   degree of knowledge of each researcher about involved software.
   A methodology to integrate GIS and statistics in morphometric analysis
   is presented for the most usual morphometric parameters-hypsometry,
   slope, aspect, swath profiles, lineaments and drainage density, surface
   roughness, isobase and hydraulic gradient.
   The GIS used was the Geographic Resources Analysis Support System
   (GRASS-GIS), an open-source project that offers an integrated
   environment for raster and vector analysis, image processing and
   maps/graphics creation. Statistical analysis of parameters can be
   carried out on R, a system for statistical computation and graphics,
   through an interface with GRASS that allows raster maps and points files
   to be treated as variables for analysis.
   The basic element for deriving morphometric maps is the digital

Abstract = {FAQ chatbots possess the capability to provide answers to frequently
   asked questions of a particular service, platform, or system. Currently,
   FAQ chatbot is the most popular domain of use of dialog assistants.
   However, developing a chatbot project requires a full-stack team formed
   by numerous specialists, such as dialog designer, data scientist,
   software engineer, DevOps, business strategist and experts from the
   domain, which can be both time and resources consuming. Language
   processing can be particularly challenging in languages other than
   English due to the scarcity of training datasets.
   Most of the requirements of FAQ chatbots are similar, domain-specific,
   and projects could profit from Open Source Software (OSS) reuse. In this
   paper, we examine how OSS FAQ chatbot projects can benefit from reuse at
   the project level (black-box reuse). We present an experience report of
   a FLOSS FAQ chatbot project developed in Portuguese to an e-government
   service in Brazil. It comprises of the chatbot distribution service, as
   well as for analytics tool integrated and deployed on-premises. We
   identified assets that could be reused as a black-box and the assets
   that should be customized for a particular application. We categorized
   these assets in architecture, corpus, dialog flows, machine learning
   models, and documentation. This paper discusses how automation,
   pre-configuration, and templates can aid newcomers to develop chatbots
   in Portuguese without the need for specialized skills required from
   tools in chatbot architecture. Our main contribution is to highlight the
   issues non-English FAQ chatbots projects will likely face and the assets
   that can be reused. It allows non-chatbot experts to develop a
   quality-assured OSS FAQ chatbot in a shorter project cycle.},

Abstract = {Previous studies on coordination in OSS projects have studied explicit
   communication. Research has theorized on the existence of coordination
   without direct communication or implicit coordination in OSS projects,
   suggesting that it contributes to their success. However, due to the
   intangible nature of implicit coordination, no studies have confirmed
   these theories. We describe how implicit coordination can now be
   measured in modern collaborative development environments. Through a
   case study of a popular OSS GitHub-hosted project, we report on how and
   why features that support implicit coordination are used.},

Abstract = {We have proposed the maintenance effort assessment model based on two

   maintenance model considering OSS edge computing by expanding the
   existing two Wiener processes model in order to consider the network
   environment under the edge OSS operation. Especially, it is important to
   control the amount of maintenance effort expense in the long-term phase.
   Then, we propose the optimization method based on the past
   two-dimensional Wiener processes model. Thereby, it will be helpful to
   assess the operation effort expenditures with network environment of

Journal = {E-INFORMATICA SOFTWARE ENGINEERING JOURNAL},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {13},
Number = {1},
Pages = {37-62},
Abstract = {Background: An increasing number of commercial firms are participating
   in Open Source Software (OSS) projects to reduce their development cost
   and increase technical innovativeness. When collaborating with other
   firms whose sought values are conflicts of interests, firms may behave
   uncooperatively leading to harmful impacts on the common goal.
   Aim: This study explores how software firms both collaborate and compete
   in OSS projects.
   Method: We adopted a mixed research method on three OSS projects.
   Result: We found that commercial firms participating in
   community-initiated OSS projects collaborate in various ways across the
   organizational boundaries. While most of firms contribute little, a
   small number of firms that are very active and account for large
   proportions of contributions. We proposed a conceptual model to explain
   for coopetition among software firms in OSS projects. The model shows
   two aspects of coopetition can be managed at the same time based on firm
   gatekeepers.
   Conclusion: Firms need to operationalize their coopetition strategies to
   maximize value gained from participating in OSS projects.},

Volume = {28},
Number = {1},
Pages = {87-93},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Purpose: The large amount of data rendered by the multifocal
   electroretinogram (mfERG) can be analyzed and visualized in various
   ways. The evaluation and comparison of more than one examination is
   time-consuming and prone to create errors. Using the free software
   environment R we developed a solution to average the data of multiple
   examinations and to allow a comparison of different patient groups.
   Methods: Data of single mfERG recordings as exported in .csv format from
   a RETIport 21 system (version 7/03, Roland Consult) or manually compiled
   .csv files are the basis for the calculations. The R software extracts
   response densities and implicit times of N1 and P1 for the sum response,
   each ring eccentricity, and each single hexagon. Averages can be
   calculated for as many subjects as needed. The mentioned parameters can
   then be compared to another group of patients or healthy subjects.
   Application of the software is illustrated by comparing 11 patients with
   chloroquine maculopathy to a control group of 7 healthy subjects.
   Results: The software scripts display response density and implicit time
   3D plots of each examination as well as of the group averages.
   Differences of the group averages are presented as 3D and grayscale 2D
   plots. Both groups are compared using the t-test with Bonferroni
   correction. The group comparison is furthermore illustrated by the
   average waveforms and by boxplots of each eccentricity.
   Conclusions: This software solution on the basis of the programming
   language R facilitates the clinical and scientific use of the mfERG and
   aids in interpretation and analysis.},

Abstract = {In recent years, demands on wireless network for services mobility, for
   ever more resources, and for a growing variety of services, have
   exploded. Consequently, network management as we have known it up to
   now, with its silos and rigid approach, cannot meet these expectations.
   If we add the Internet of Things, the network has to become dynamic,
   adaptable and flexible. In this context, the industry and forums have
   specified and standardized a new architecture based on Software Defined
   Network (SDN), Network Function Virtualization, and Orchestration. These
   new paradigms, and especially Orchestration, will have a great impact on
   the Legacy Network Management Systems and the Operations Support System
   (OSS). We present a state of the art review of the main architecture
   approaches in the SDN standardization forums and discuss the place of
   the Orchestration in these different architectures. Then we focus on the
   Orchestration at the application layer and show how, together with SDN
   and Network Function Virtualization, they influence the Operation and
   Business Support Systems of next-generation network management. Finally,
   we analyze the roles and functions of this Orchestrator with regard to
   upper management, as well as the several open challenges in this domain.},

Abstract = {While Open Source Software (OSS) communities provide opportunities for
   knowledge creation, we have a limited understanding of how entrepreneurs
   leverage OSS communities for their entrepreneurial ventures. Using
   social capital theory in a mixed methods case study, we compare
   entrepreneur and non-entrepreneur behaviors to investigate how
   entrepreneurs build social capital within an OSS community. This study
   shows that entrepreneurs differentiate themselves from non-entrepreneurs
   by focusing on cognitive and relational capital building activities,
   which in return makes it possible for them to leverage their social
   capital to influence and shape the environment in which they are
   operating. Our findings suggest that entrepreneurs strategically select
   which activities within the community to expend their limited resources
   on (e.g., developing code over participating in email conversations) and
   build their social capital more through their actions than through their
   words (e.g., showing their commitment to the community through code
   commits, bug fixes, and documentation). Given the liabilities of newness
   and smallness as well as other challenges faced by entrepreneurs,
   applying an open innovation strategy in OSS communities could be one
   approach where entrepreneurs, by developing and freely revealing their
   intellectual property to the community, share their way to success via
   OSS-infused entrepreneurial business ventures.},

Abstract = {PurposeTo remain sustainable, open source software (OSS) projects must
   attract new members-or newcomers-who make contributions. In this paper,
   the authors develop a set of hypotheses based on the knowledge barriers
   framework that examines how OSS communities can encourage contributions
   from newcomers.Design/methodology/approachEmploying longitudinal data
   from the source code repositories of 232 OSS projects over a two-year
   period, the authors employ a Poisson-based mixed model to test how
   community characteristics, such as the main drivers of knowledge-based
   costs, relate to newcomers' contributions.FindingsThe results indicate
   that community characteristics, such as programming language choice,
   documentation effort and code structure instability, are the main
   drivers of knowledge-based contribution costs. The findings also suggest
   that managing these costs can result in more inclusive OSS communities,
   as evidenced by the number of contributing newcomers; the authors
   highlight the importance of maintaining documentation efforts for OSS
   communities.Originality/valueThis paper assumes that motivational
   factors are a necessary but insufficient condition for newcomer
   participation in OSS projects and that the cost to participation should
   be considered. Using the knowledge barriers framework, this paper
   identifies the main knowledge-based costs that hinder newcomer
   participation. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first
   empirical study that does not limit data collection to a single hosting
   platform (e.g., SourceForge), which improves the generalizability of the

   addresses the evolutionary relationship between classes and attributes
   as well as the connection between those changes and refactorings.
   Although some evidence of attributes following patterns conformant with
   class additions was found, we also identified occurrences of attributes
   being added unilaterally. A strong correspondence was also found between
   attribute addition and the refactoring data. Finally, we explore
   features of a fourth system with seven inheritance levels for similar

Abstract = {The paper illustrates the use of open source Computer-aided design (CAD)
   environments in order to develop Building Information Modelling (BIM)
   tools able to manage 3D models in the field of cultural heritage.
   Nowadays, the development of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) has
   been rapidly growing and their use tends to be consolidated. Although
   BIM technology is widely known and used, there is a lack of integrated
   open source platforms able to support all stages of Historic Building
   Information Modelling (HBIM) processes. The present research aims to use
   a FOSS CAD environment in order to develop BIM plug-ins which will be
   able to import and edit digital representations of cultural heritage
   models derived by photogrammetric methods.},

Abstract = {The use of vulnerable open-source dependencies is a known problem in
   today's software development. Several vulnerability scanners to detect
   known-vulnerable dependencies appeared in the last decade, however,
   there exists no case study investigating the impact of development
   practices, e.g., forking, patching, re-bundling, on their performance.
   This paper studies (i) types of modifications that may affect vulnerable
   open-source dependencies and (ii) their impact on the performance of
   vulnerability scanners. Through an empirical study on 7,024 Java
   projects developed at SAP, we identified four types of modifications:
   re-compilation, re-bundling, metadata-removal and re-packaging. In
   particular, we found that more than 87 percent (56 percent, resp.) of
   the vulnerable Java classes considered occur in Maven Central in
   re-bundled (re-packaged, resp.) form. We assessed the impact of these
   modifications on the performance of the open-source vulnerability
   scanners OWASP Dependency-Check (OWASP) and Eclipse Steady, GitHub
   Security Alerts, and three commercial scanners. The results show that
   none of the scanners is able to handle all the types of modifications
   identified. Finally, we present Achilles, a novel test suite with 2,505
   test cases that allow replicating the modifications on open-source
   dependencies.},

Abstract = {Optimal Spectral Sampling (OSS) is a new approach to radiative transfer
   modeling which addresses the need for algorithm speed, accuracy, and
   flexibility. The OSS technique allows for the rapid calculation of
   radiance for any class of multispectral, hyperspectral, or ultraspectral
   sensors at any spectral resolution operating in any region from
   microwave through UV wavelengths by selecting and appropriately
   weighting the monochromatic points that contribute over the sensor
   bandwidth. This allows for the calculation to be performed at a small
   number of spectral points while retaining the advantages of a
   monochromatic calculation such as exact treatment of multiple scattering
   and/or polarization. The OSS method is well suited for remote sensing
   applications which require extremely fast and accurate radiative
   transfer calculations: atmospheric compensation, spectral and spatial
   feature extraction, multi-sensor data fusion, sub-pixel spectral
   analysis, qualitative and quantitative spectral analysis, sensor design
   and data assimilation. The OSS was recently awarded a U.S. Patent
   (\#6,584,405) and is currently used as part of the National
   Polar-Orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS) CrIS,
   CMIS, and OMPS-IR environmental parameter retrieval algorithms. This
   paper describes the theoretical basis and development of OSS and shows
   examples of the application and validation of this technique for a
   variety of different sensor types and applications.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) projects represent a new paradigm of software

   results confirm the necessity of structuring the virtual community with
   a selection of active developers and core members to promote community
   activity and attract peripheral users, expanding the impact of the
   underlying software. The obtained result will be useful for the software

Journal = {EMPIRICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {22},
Number = {1},
Pages = {407-435},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Open Source Software projects are communities in which people ``learn
   the ropes{''} from each other. The social and technical activities of
   developers evolve together, and as they link to each other they get
   organized in a network of changing socio-technical connections. Traces
   of those activities, or behaviors, are typically visible to all, in
   project repositories and through communication between them. Thus, in
   principle it may be possible to study those traces to tell which of the
   observable socio-technical behaviors of developers in these projects are
   responsible for the forming of persistent links between them. It may
   also be possible to tell the extent to which links participate in the
   spread of potential behavioral influences. Since OSS projects change in
   both social and technical activity over time, static approaches, that
   either ignore time or simplify it to a few slices, are frequently
   inadequate to study these networks. On the other hand, ad-hoc dynamic
   approaches are often only loosely supported by theory and can yield
   misleading findings. Here we adapt the stochastic actor-oriented models
   from social network analysis. These models enable the study of the
   interplay between behavior, influence and network architecture, for
   dynamic networks, in a statistically sound way. We apply the stochastic
   actor-oriented models in case studies of two Apache Software Foundation
   projects, and study code ownership and developer productivity as
   behaviors. For those, we find evidence of significant social selection
   effects (homophily) in both projects, but in different directions.
   However, we find no evidence for the spread (social influence) of either
   code ownership or developer productivity behaviors through the networks.},

Abstract = {The usage of Open Source Software (OSS) has been extended in a wide
   range of business fields not only IT industries. Behind this current
   situation, there are tremendous inputs by the volunteer engineers in the
   development communities. In this series of studies, we have conducted
   questionnaire survey to Japanese IT companies in 2012 and 2013, and then
   analyzed the relation between OSS utilization and development
   contribution, and how these affect the business growth. Our study
   revealed that Japanese IT companies are rather free riders of OSS, the
   volume of development contributions are far less than that of
   utilization. From our previous studies, it was anticipated that some
   OSS-related factors were affecting the business growth; however, clear
   evidence has not been found. In autumn 2014, we conducted the
   questionnaire survey for the third time and this paper presents the
   survey results as the second report of the continued research. We
   constructed the simplified Logistic Model to investigate the influential
   factors on business growth. However, no clear evidence was found as the
   same as the previous study. In summary, we conclude that there are some
   form of relationships between OSS utilization and development
   contribution, but these are not the determinant factors on the business
   growth in the Japanese IT companies at present.},

Abstract = {Many software products are available free of charge. While the benefits

   benefits do not exist, a software firm can still benefit from giving
   away fully functioning software. This is due to the accelerated
   diffusion process and subsequently the increased net present value of
   future sales. By adapting the Bass diffusion model to capture the impact
   of free software offer, we provide a methodology to determine the
   optimal number of free adopters. We show that the optimal free offer
   solution depends on the discount rate, the length of the demand window,
   and the ratio of low-valuation to high-valuation free adopters. Our
   methodology is shown to be applicable for both fixed and dynamic pricing

Abstract = {We have developed a simple analog-to-digital converter (ADC) by using
   free software such as computer-aided design (CAD) software for an
   electronic circuit, a filter circuit simulator, an integrated-developing
   environment (IDE) for programming a controller, and that for a PC to
   acquire and display the data. The ADC can record a temporal signal
   produced by chromatography and flow-injection analysis. It has two
   voltage measurement ranges: +/- 2.048 V and +/- 1.024 V, respectively,
   with 14-bit resolution and a four samples s(-1) sampling rate. The
   voltage resolution is 0.25 mV and 0.125 mV per one ADC reading for +/-
   2.048 V and +/- 1.024 V, respectively. Its dimensions were 100x70x30 mm,
   and mass was 110 g. We have evaluated its performance, including the
   linearity and the difference between the two devices. For +/- 1.024 V
   range, the calibration curve for one ADC and another was D = 7954V 5 and
   D = 7946V + 30, respectively, where D is an ADC reading, and V is an
   input voltage. For another range, it was D = 3972V - 3 and D = 3968V +
   15, respectively. Their slopes and intercept agreed with each other, and
   had good linearity, R-2 > 0.9999. We have then successfully applied it
   to the sequential injection analysis (SIA) of chromium(VI) using
   diphenylcarbazide as a coloring reagent. The circuit diagram and
   programs developed in this paper are available on our website.},

Abstract = {There seems to be a widespread perception amongst researchers and
   teachers that many students find chemistry difficult {[}1]. Having a
   good knowledge of molecular structure is crucial to work out polarity of
   compounds, intermolecular forces and their relationship with properties.
   In addition, it is very important to understand the inorganic systems
   that explain the behaviour of atoms, ions and molecules in understanding
   the phenomena of organic chemistry {[}2]. Therefore, the understanding
   of spatial structures is central to the discipline of chemistry.
   However, in textbooks molecular structures are represented as
   two-dimensional objects and as result, students might find difficult to
   switch from 2D to 3D structures or images. Using 3 dimensional models
   help students acquire a better understanding of molecular geometry and
   encourage active learning. Computer visualizations now offer an
   interesting possible alternative to concrete or physical models {[}3].
   Jmol is one of the most prevalent molecular visualization tools in STEM
   education. It is a free open source software for interactive molecular
   visualization. This work describes the implementation of the Jmol
   visualization tool in a module on General Chemistry for Engineers during
   the academic year 2016-2017. The goals were three-fold. Firstly, to use
   the Jmol visualization application as a teaching tool for classroom
   demonstration. Then, to provide students with the skills to use the
   molecular visualization tool for their own learning process. Finally, to
   actively engage students with generation and manipulation of molecular
   models. Jmol application was used during Lectures to teach about
   molecular structure. Students then had to download and use the
   application on their own to complete several worksheets. Later on, Jmol
   molecular models were also used to aid student understanding of organic
   chemistry, including isomerism. Additional worksheets and assignments
   involved the use of Jmol visualization tool. The evaluation of the
   software implementation on the module was carried out by marking the
   worksheets and by a survey that was conducted among the students.},

Abstract = {The Fermi Gamma-ray Observatory, including the Large Area Telescope
   (LAT), was launched June 11, 2008. We are a relatively small
   collaboration, with a maximum of 25 software developers in our heyday.
   Within the LAT collaboration we support Red Hat Linux, Windows, and are
   moving towards Mac OS as well for offline simulation, reconstruction and
   analysis tools. Early on it was decided to use one software system to
   run our simulations as well as ultimately handle the event processing
   for real data. We leveraged many existing HEP external libraries
   (Geant4, Gaudi Framework, ROOT, CLHEP, CMT) to ease the burden on our
   developers. This strategy of re-using existing software helped us pull
   together our system quickly and test during our beam tests and data
   challenges. Now, after launch, we are in a new phase of the project,
   where we must move forward to support modern operating systems and
   compilers to get us through the life of the mission. This means
   upgrading our external libraries as well, which are not under our direct
   control. Meanwhile, it is crucial to our production system that we
   carefully orchestrate all upgrades to insure stability. An additional
   hurtle is that our number of active developers has dwindled
   dramatically. Many of those left are Windows developers reliant on the
   Visual Studio development environment, while our user base and
   production system depend on our Linux distributions. There have been a
   number of lessons learned, with undoubtedly more to come.},

Abstract = {The gender gap is a significant concern facing the software industry as
   the development becomes more geographically distributed. Widely shared
   reports indicate that gender differences may be specific to each region.
   However, how complete can these reports be with little to no research
   reflective of the Open Source Software (OSS) process and communities
   software is now commonly developed in? Our study presents a multi-region
   geographical analysis of gender inclusion on GitHub. This mixed-methods
   approach includes quantitatively investigating differences in gender
   inclusion in projects across geographic regions and investigate these
   trends over time using data from contributions to 21,456 project
   repositories. We also qualitatively understand the unique experiences of
   developers contributing to these projects through a survey that is
   strategically targeted to developers in various regions worldwide. Our
   findings indicate that gender diversity is low across all parts of the
   world, with no substantial difference across regions. However, there has
   been statistically significant improvement in diversity worldwide since
   2014, with certain regions such as Africa improving at faster pace. We
   also find that most motivations and barriers to contributions (e.g.,
   lack of resources to contribute and poor working environment) were
   shared across regions, however, some insightful differences, such as how
   to make projects more inclusive, did arise. From these findings, we
   derive and present implications for tools that can foster inclusion in
   open source software communities and empower contributions from
   everyone, everywhere.},

Year = {2024},
Volume = {14},
Number = {1},
Pages = {23-33},
Abstract = {The article is devoted to one of the most famous works of H. W. Henze
   ``Das Flog der Medusa{''} ({''}The Raft of Medusa{''}), often seen as an
   example of Henze's political engagement. The author of the article
   concludes that the oratorio was recognized as a political composition in
   large part due to the accompanying circumstances of its creation and
   premiere, but not based on the original idea and its realisation. The
   author demonstrate ``Das Flog der Medusa{''} like a example of the
   protest music as a direction that exposes not only fascism, but also any
   form of social inequality, violence against the person. The study of the
   features of choral style of ``Das Flog der Medusa{''} reveals parallels
   in the textural structure between Henze's oratorio and Nono's works of
   the 1950s ({''}La victoire de Guernica{''}, ``Il canto sospeso{''},
   ``Intolleranza 1960{''}). The use of political text resources, the
   operation of individual syllables and phonemes of a literary text, work
   with multilingual verbal rows, the active use of diagonal texture - all
   this brings together the choral works of two contemporaries. At the same
   time, Henze's composition also reflected the searches in the field of
   vocal timbre, characteristic of other composers of Darmstadt Summer
   Course - the use of various modifications of speech singing ( Sprech-
   gesang ), the latest techniques of vocal articulation (vocal tremolo,
   prolongation of the anterolingual vibrant). All this together allows us
   to talk about Henz's oratorio as one of the most peculiar choral
   compositions of the late 1960s.},

Journal = {CANADIAN GEOGRAPHIES-GEOGRAPHIES CANADIENNES},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {59},
Number = {4},

Month = {WIN},
Abstract = {Delineation of geographic space partitions landscapes into regions that
   express relative homogeneity within those delineated regions and many
   efforts exist to analyze the resulting shapes that these delineations
   produce. There is a desire to establish means by which the shapes of
   planar polygons can be measured, characterized, and compared. I present
   the ShrinkShape2 toolbox, a completely redesigned set of end-user tools
   (an advancement of its precursor ShrinkShape) that is implemented
   seamlessly in the free and opensource R and SAGA GIS environments. This
   free, efficient, and accessible environment provides a multidimensional,
   rotation invariant, scale-controlled method for characterizing and
   comparing planar shapes and tools for visualizing results. ShrinkShape2
   incrementally buffers polygons internally until the point of extinction;
   at each shrinking phase a series of summary metrics are computed to form
   spectra of index values that characterize general characteristics of
   shape structure and complexity. Demonstrations with simple synthetic
   shapes, political boundary maps, and a sample sub-Arctic pond
   demonstrate the ability to assess boundary complexity, pinch-points, and
   identify holes within larger shapes. For perfectly convex and compact
   shapes, perimeter decompositions will decrease linearly and area
   decompositions will decrease according to one limb of a second-order
   polynomial function relative to the cumulative shrinking distance.

Abstract = {The majority of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) developers are
   mobile and often use different identities in the projects or communities

   researchers studying the presence and contributions of developers across
   multiple repositories. In this paper, we present a methodology, employ
   various statistical measures, and leverage Bayesian networks to study
   the patterns of contribution of 502 developers in both Version Control
   System (VCS) and mailing list repositories in 20 GNOME projects. Our
   findings shows that only a small percentage of developers are
   contributing to both repositories and this cohort is making more commits
   than they are posting messages to mailing lists. The implications of
   these findings for understanding the patterns of contribution in FOSS
   projects and on the quality of the final product are discussed. (C) 2013

Title = {Effect of environmental and socioeconomic factors on the use of dental

Journal = {BRAZILIAN ORAL RESEARCH},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {33},
Abstract = {The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of environmental
   and socioeconomic characteristics with the use of dental floss in
   preschool children. This cross-sectional study was conducted with a
   sample of 402 preschool children aged 1-5 years, from Santa Cruz do Sul,
   a Southern city in Brazil. Mothers answered questions about
   environmental, demographic, and socioeconomic characteristics. Behavior
   variables as use of dental floss (study outcome) and dental attendance
   were also evaluated. Poisson regression analysis with robust variance
   through a hierarchical approach was used to investigate the association
   of explanatory variables for use of dental floss. Prevalence ratio (PR)
   and 95\% confidence intervals (95\%CI) were estimated. The mean sample
   age was 3.32 years (standard deviation {[}SD] 1.10). Of the included
   children, 291 (73.12\%) did not use dental floss. The environmental
   model indicated that children who attended daycare (PR 2.53; 95\%CI
   1.39-4.60) and those whose parents were members of volunteer networks
   (RP 1.58; 95\%CI 1.02-2.46) were more likely to use dental floss.
   Children from families with higher income (PR 1.55; 95\%CI 1.07-2.24)
   and maternal schooling (PR 2.21; 95\%CI 1.31-3.74) presented a higher
   prevalence of dental floss use. Older children and those who attended
   dental services were also related to higher dental floss use. Our
   findings suggest that children who live in a supporting environment and
   those with a higher socioeconomic status are more likely to use dental
   floss.},

Title = {Investigating the vulnerability fixing process in OSS projects:
   Peculiarities and challenges},
Journal = {COMPUTERS \& SECURITY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {99},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Although vulnerabilities can be considered and treated as bugs, they
   present numerous pe-culiarities compared to other types of bugs
   (canonical bugs in the remainder of the paper). A vulnerability adds
   functionality to a system, as it allows an adversary to misuse or abuse
   the system, while a canonical bug is an incomplete or incorrect
   implementation of a requirement, and thus degrades the functionality of
   the system. This difference can affect the fixing process of
   vulnerabilities. By mining the repositories of 6 open source projects,
   we characterize the differences in the fixing process between
   vulnerabilities and canonical bugs, highlighting critical issues which
   could represent challenges for future research. Results of our study
   demonstrate that: (i) more re-assignments (than the ones observed in
   canonical bugs) are required for finding the developers able to handle
   vulnerability-related bugs, (ii) developers' security-related skills
   should be profiled, to improve the efficiency of the security bug
   assignment tasks, and, consequently, reduce the re-assignments, and
   (iii) vulnerabilities require more effort, contributors and time to
   define the fixing strategy but smaller time to fix than canonical bugs.

Abstract = {Context: Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects have been used
   in Software Engineering Education (SEE) to address the need for more
   realistic settings that reduce the gap between software engineering (SE)
   courses and industry needs. A systematic mapping study (SMS) performed
   in 2013 structured the research area on the use of FLOSS projects in
   SEE. Objective: Update the 2013 SMS with studies published in the last
   five years, classifying and summarizing them to discuss trends and
   identify research gaps in the context of the use of FLOSS projects in
   SEE. Method: We retrieved and analyzed a set of 4132 papers published
   from 2013 to 2017, from which 33 papers were selected and classified. We
   analyzed the new results and compared them with those from the previous
   SMS to confirm or discover trends. Results: The updated mapping
   summarizes the studies published in the last five years, most of them in
   conferences. Our analysis confirmed trends previously observed for three
   facets (SE area, curriculum choice and assessment type) and discovered
   new trends for other facets. Conclusion: Studies report the use of FLOSS
   projects in regular, comprehensive SE courses. The prevalence of
   experience reports over solution proposals in the last five years may
   indicate that researchers are more concerned with the use and evaluation
   of existing proposals, although there are still opportunities for more
   empirical work based on sound educational research methods.},

Abstract = {Free and open source software (FOSS) movement essentially arises like
   answer to the evolution occurred in the market from the software,
   characterized by the closing of the source code. Furthermore, some FOSS
   characteristics, such as (1) the advance of this movement and (2) the
   attractiveness that contributes the voluntary and cooperative work, have
   increased the interest of the users towards free software.
   Traditionally, research in FOSS has focused on identifying individual
   personal motives for participating in the development of a FOSS project,
   analyzing specific FOSS solutions, or the FOSS movement itself.
   Nevertheless, the advantages of the FOSS for users and the effect of the
   demographic dimensions on user acceptance for FOSS have been two
   research topics with little attention. Specifically, this paper's aim is
   to focus on the influence of the users' age with FOSS the FOSS
   acceptance. Based on the literature, users' age is an essential
   demographic dimension for explaining the Information Systems acceptance.
   With this purpose, the authors have developed a research model based on
   the Technological Acceptance Model (TAM).},

   experts and development practices used by companies involved in the Open
   Source Software industry. The results of the survey confirm intuitive
   concerns related to the adoption of Open Source Software as: the
   selection of the license, the quality issues addressed, and the
   development process tasks inside Open Source Software projects. The
   study uncovered specific aspects related to trust and trustworthiness of
   the Open Source Software development process that we did not find in
   previous studies as: the standards implemented by the OSS project, the
   project's roadmap is respected, and the communication channels that are

Abstract = {An in-depth knowledge of the littoral system is essential for its
   conservation and for an accurate planning of due interventions. The
   parabolic bay shape equation, used to study the embayed beach planform,
   is a qualitatively assessed instrument to obtain information about beach
   equilibrium conditions. Nowadays the equation has been extended in order
   to be applicable not only to sand beaches but also to gravel beaches. In
   this paper Phoebus user-friendly software for an automatic use of the
   extended parabolic bay shape equation is presented. The software enables
   both technical experts and non-professionals to conduct expeditious
   analysis in order to evaluate the evolution and equilibrium conditions
   of embayed littoral beaches lying between natural headlands or man-made
   structures, as well as to artificially recreate stable embayed beaches
   by building new artificial structures on open beaches. The software can
   be also used for coastal planning, to anticipate beach modifications in
   response to new building or to changes in pre-existing structures.
   Highlights
   1. Development of a free software to automatically compute embayed beach
   planform
   2. The system can be used on every type of beach image
   3. The software allows to display the planform both for sand and gravel
   beaches
   4. Software reliability was demonstrated for natural and artificial bay
   beaches.},

Abstract = {The paper presents reflections about public policies in communication
   and technologies, in particular on the use of microcomputers and
   software, which, apparently consolidated, needs analysis in its constant
   evolution. The text aims to question the fact that the market develops
   proprietary software, as opposed to the collaborationist ideal of the
   free software movement, that enables digital inclusion and
   participation, which is intended to be adopted through public policies,
   extending its use to the public education agencies. It also discusses
   the concept of free software and its adoption in college education
   through resolutions adopted by the Brazilian state, analyzing the
   experience of the Journalism Course at Federal University of Uberlandia
   - UFU - on the use of free software Scribus. Methodologically, document
   research was used to find the data and information provided by the
   federal government and the object institution of the analysis. A
   comparison with a similar proprietary software model is made,
   highlighting that the use of free software is reliable, allowing to
   develop the communitarian and collaborationist spirit needed in the
   university environment, expanding the knowledge and not merely the
   ``dressage at the pressing of buttons{''}. It is noted, based on the
   documents, that the initiative is still seen with resistance and its
   use, even in public CEIs (College Education Institutions), needs to be
   intensified.},

Abstract = {Since the users of open source software (OSS) projects may not use the
   latest version all the time, OSS development teams often support code
   maintenance for old versions through maintaining multiple stable
   branches. Typically, the developers create a stable branch for each old
   stable version, deploy security patches on the branch, and release fixed
   versions at regular intervals. As such, old-version applications in
   production environments are protected from the disclosed vulnerabilities
   in a long time. However, the rapidly growing number of OSS
   vulnerabilities has greatly strained this patch deployment model, and a
   critical need has arisen for the security community to understand the
   practice of security patch management across stable branches. In this
   work, we conduct a large-scale empirical study of stable branches in OSS
   projects and the security patches deployed on them via investigating 608
   stable branches belonging to 26 popular OSS projects as well as more
   than 2,000 security fixes for 806 CVEs deployed on stable branches.
   Our study distills several important findings: (i) more than 80\%
   affected CVE-Branch pairs are unpatched; (ii) the unpatched
   vulnerabilities could pose a serious security risk to applications in
   use, with 47.39\% of them achieving a CVSS score over 7 (High or
   Critical Severity); and (iii) the patch porting process requires great
   manual efforts and takes an average of 40.46 days, significantly
   extending the time window for N-day vulnerability attacks. Our results
   reveal the worrying state of security patch management across stable
   branches. We hope our study can shed some light on improving the
   practice of patch management in OSS projects.},

Abstract = {The products of Open Source Software (OSS) projects are widely used even
   in commercial mission-critical and high-availability systems. This is
   because both the quality of these software products is high enough for
   these applications and the support of software could fulfill the
   requirement. In general, when one wants to adopt OSS as a part of
   computer systems, it is required to examine the functional requirement
   (FR) for the OSS as well as nonfunctional requirement (NFR).
   In the previous paper, we focused on NFR of OSS and proposed an
   evaluation method based on the maturity model of OSS community. Based on
   the model, we tried to evaluate four major OSS communities. For the
   evaluation, we used human knowledge of targeted OSS community. However
   it was not clear how to evaluate individual OSS project in OSS
   community.
   In this paper, we focused on continuity of OSS project, as it is one of
   the most important factors for users to make a decision. In order to
   evaluate continuity, we proposed a growth model of OSS project, which is
   based on the size and activity of OSS Project. We evaluated the growth
   model using information retrieved from OSS communities from both OSS
   community sites and source code repositories. (C) 2015 The Authors.

Journal = {ACM TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING AND METHODOLOGY},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {25},

Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Motivation: Open-source projects are often supported by companies, but
   such involvement often affects the robust contributor inflow needed to
   sustain the project and sometimes prompts key contributors to leave. To
   capture user innovation and to maintain quality of software and
   productivity of teams, these projects need to attract and retain
   contributors. Aim: We want to understand and quantify how inflow and
   retention are shaped by policies and actions of companies in three
   application server projects. Method: We identified three hybrid projects
   implementing the same JavaEE specification and used published
   literature, online materials, and interviews to quantify actions and
   policies companies used to get involved. We collected project repository
   data, analyzed affiliation history of project participants, and used
   generalized linear models and survival analysis to measure contributor
   inflow and retention. Results: We identified coherent groups of policies
   and actions undertaken by sponsoring companies as three models of
   community involvement and quantified tradeoffs between the inflow and
   retention each model provides. We found that full control mechanisms and
   high intensity of commercial involvement were associated with a decrease
   of external inflow and with improved retention. However, a shared
   control mechanism was associated with increased external inflow
   contemporaneously with the increase of commercial involvement.
   Implications: Inspired by a natural experiment, our methods enabled us
   to quantify aspects of the balance between community and private
   interests in open-source software projects and provide clear
   implications for the structure of future open-source communities.},

   different perspective. We investigate the importance of OSS peer review
   contributor roles and their review activities by using social network
   analysis (SNA), proposed as PeRSoN (Peer Review Social Network). As a
   case study, we extracted and analyzed the review process of Android Open
   Source Project (AOSP). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first
   research constructing social networks from mining a peer review
   repository. Our preliminary results provided hints on relationships
   among the OSS peer review contributor roles, their activities, and the
   network structure. The results raised issues that will be used to refine
   our approach in the future.},

   alters-current and potential adopters. We contend that increased network
   centrality and closure among current adopters contribute positively to
   adoption, whereas the same among potential adopters has exactly the
   opposite impact. Accordingly, we propose a dynamic view where the
   fraction of current adopters in the network positively moderates the
   impact of network centrality and closure. We empirically test the theory
   by analyzing the adoption of software version control technology by open
   source software projects. Our results strongly support the theory.},

Abstract = {The Observatory adopted a thematic procedure of evaluating and
   monitoring changes in natural resources. Data from previous Studies were
   also reworked to fit into the themes being monitored. Temporal trends
   were evaluated using polynomial curve Fitting, which were confirmed by
   statistical analyses. The extracted trends indicate a steady increase in
   air temperature, relative humidity and annual rainfall, while wind speed
   declined. The standardized seasonal rainfall Shows all autumn trend that
   approximates the annual trend With amplitude of live years, while
   rainfall during the winter declines and inclines during above the
   long-term average during spring. Concurrently, sodium, sulfate and
   chloride soil concentrations increased rapidly in the late 1990s,
   together with increases ill the very fine sand fraction, which reflects
   the active erosion and deposition processes associated with recent human
   interference. There is a general process of recharging plant species
   diversity (long-term records; 122 perennials and 104 annuals) in the
   late 1990s following a sizeable decline; 26 perennials with declining
   density and spatial occupation call be considered at threat. Some of
   these species are transient and show a three-year cycle of species
   replacement (turnover when related to added species). The change ill the
   diversity of perennial species is allied to changes in rainfall,
   temperature and wind speed related to the climatic, salinity,
   bicarbonate, calcium, and Sulfate of the edaphic variables. This also
   applies to endangered species, where especially air temperature and Soil
   sulfates are the most determinant driving factors. Further, a shift of
   the rainfall above the long-term average from winter to spring
   elucidates the trend of change detected ill the diversity. It is
   concluded that the diversity of biotops (spatial heterogeneity in
   habitats) ill the area is the influential base for the biodiversity and
   is greatly affected by human impact. Concurrently, climatic changes and
   the associated environmental degradation of soil resources are more
   cyclic (recurring) phenomena, which reflect specific feedback effects

Abstract = {This article focuses on a kind of nonstrict nonlinear fractional-order
   systems (FOSs) suffering from state constraints and dead-zone input.
   Meanwhile, a finite-time adaptive dynamic surface control (DSC) approach
   based on backstepping technology and approximation principle of radial
   basis function neural network (RBFNN) is developed. To overcome the
   problem of inherent computational complexity, a fractional-order filter
   is applied to approach the virtual controller and its fractional-order
   derivative in each step of the backstepping procedure. The barrier
   Lyapunov function (BLF) is employed to handle the state constraints, and
   finite-time stability criteria on the basis of fractional-order Lyapunov
   method are introduced to prove the finite-time convergence of the
   tracking error into a small region around the origin. It is shown that
   all the solutions of the closed-loop system are bounded, while the state
   constraints are satisfied within a predetermined finite time. Finally,
   two examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the
   presented control scheme.},

Volume = {227},
Pages = {11-26},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {With the objective of recovering the values of ignition delays of
   reactive heterogeneous mixtures a singlestep chemistry model has been
   developed. The corresponding model extends a recent optimization
   procedure introduced to describe flame propagation in heterogeneous
   media featuring composition variations (equivalence ratio and
   temperature) in the fresh reactants or containing residual burned gases
   (RBG). It is based on the use of an optimized virtual species and a
   tabulation of the pre-exponential coefficient of an Arrhenius law. The
   main results of high activation energy asymptotics (AEA) are first
   recalled to put in evidence the key parameters and the dependence of the
   ignition delay on the corresponding quantities. The optimization
   procedure is then applied to these parameters, namely, the
   pre-exponential factor K and the activation energy E-a of the associated
   single-step Arrhenius law. An efficient tabulation method benefiting
   from both rapid access and low storage is proposed for the composition
   variable (the mixture fraction, in the present case). Finally, the
   restitution of both ignition and propagation features is ensured through
   the consideration of the cross-over temperature. The performance of the
   resulting model is then assessed through comparisons with data obtained
   from detailed chemistry computations used as reference in several
   conditions of increasing complexity. (C) 2021 The Combustion Institute.

Abstract = {Many developers and researchers related with Operational Support System
   (OSS) have interested in the Next Generation OSS (NGOSS) architecture.
   In Next Generation Network (NGN) service environment, the OSS must
   support service delivery, assurance, and network management across
   multi-technology and multi-domain communication networks. Also, NGOSS
   support Business-To-Business (B2B) collaboration activity, and
   Business-To-Customer (B2C) activity. To achieve those, this paper will
   proposes a XML-based business activity integration framework using web
   service and workflow-based business process automation framework. The
   proposed two frameworks will provide a highly distributed, loosely
   coupled, and open-standard based system design methodology for the
   business oriented architecture, NGOSS.},

Abstract = {So far we have used OSS strategy to sequence over 2 megabases DNA in
   large-insert clones from regions of human X chromosome with different
   characteristic levels of GC content. The method starts by randomly
   fragmenting a BAG, YAC or PAC to 8-12 kb pieces and subcloning those
   into lambda phage. Insert-ends of these clones are sequenced and
   overlapped to create a partial map. Complete sequencing is then done on
   a minimal tiling path of selected subclones, recursively focusing on
   those at the edges of contigs to facilitate mergers of clones across the
   entire target. To reduce manual labor, PCR processes have been adapted
   to prepare sequencing templates throughout the entire operation. The
   streamlined process can thus lend itself to further automation.
   The OSS approach is suitable for large-scale genomic sequencing,
   providing considerable flexibility in the choice of subclones or regions
   for more or less intensive sequencing. For example, subclones containing
   contaminating host cell DNA or cloning vector can be recognized and
   ignored with minimal sequencing effort; regions overlapping a
   neighboring clone already sequenced need not be redone; and segments
   containing tandem repeats or long repetitive sequences can be spotted
   early on and targeted for additional attention.},

Abstract = {This paper describes how software developers who use mailing lists to
   communicate reacted and adjusted to a new supplementary collaboration
   tool, called a pastebin service. Using publicly-available archives of
   8800 mailing lists, we examine the adoption of the pastebin tool by
   software developers and compare it to the model presented in Diffusion
   of Innovation (DoI) theory. We then compare the rate at which software
   developers decided whether to accept or reject the new pastebin tools.
   We find that the overall rate of pastebin adoption follows the S-curve
   predicted by classic DoI theory. We then compare the individual pastebin
   services and their rates of adoption, as well as the reaction of
   different communities to the new tools and the various rationales for
   accepting or rejecting them.},

Abstract = {In the process of obtaining Calotropis gigantea seed fibers from pods,
   drying and broadening pod suture are the prerequisites of harvesting
   fibers. In this paper, the drying characteristics of Calotropis gigantea
   pods on microwave radiation by using different drying methods, different
   microwave powers, and different time periods, are studied, and the
   corresponding impacts on fiber quality are analyzed. The experimental
   results show that obtaining Calotropis gigantea seed fibers by microwave
   heating the pods is feasible. Compared to natural air drying and hot air
   drying, the microwave drying (MW can significantly improve the drying
   efficiency and reduce the drying time by more than 5 times. The
   microwave power has considerable influences on the drying rate. However,
   the fiber strength and break elongation are reduced with the increase of
   microwave power due to fiber structural change caused by the high
   temperature inside the pod. Compared with intermittent radiation, the
   moisture loss rate of the pods is greater in continuous radiation mode,
   but the pod internal temperature is higher, which is harmful to the
   quality of the fibers. Varying power radiation, which uses lower power
   first, then higher, could shorten drying time without impeding the pods'
   abdominal suture broadening.},

Abstract = {Students can benefit from contributing to Open Source Software (OSS),

   engage and motivate people to accomplish tasks and improve their
   performance. The goal of this work is to analyze the use of gamification
   to orient and motivate undergraduate students to overcome onboarding
   barriers and engage to OSS projects. To achieve this goal, we
   implemented four gaming elements (Quests, Points, Ranking, and Levels)
   in GitLab and assessed the environment by means of a study conducted
   with 17 students, within a real OSS project (JabRef). At the end of the
   study, the students evaluated their experience through a questionnaire.
   We found that the Quest element helped to guide participants and keep
   them motivated and points helped by providing feedback on students'
   performed tasks. We conclude that the gamified environment oriented the
   students in an attempt to make a contribution and that gamification can
   motivate and orient newcomers' to engage to OSS projects.},

Abstract = {Quality-related concerns are often coined with the terms non-functional
   requirements, architecturally significant requirements, and quality
   attributes. Collectively, these qualities affect non-behavioral concerns
   of the software system such as reliability, usability, security, or
   maintainability among others. As a byproduct of a long-term maintenance
   effort, these system qualities tend to erode over time, causing
   system-wide failures that emerge via quality-related bugs.
   Quality-related bugs can have a detrimental impact on system's sustained
   stability and can chiefly hinder its core functionality. Typically, for
   the developers, to manually examine these high-impacted quality-related
   bugs can become prohibitively expensive and impractical task to attain.
   This is often a case with bugs that are reported from medium or
   large-sized projects such as Eclipse. To alleviate this problem, we
   built a quality-based classifier to automatically detect these emerging
   quality-related concerns from textual descriptions of bug report
   summaries. Specifically, we leveraged a weighted combination of
   semantics, lexical, and shallow features in conjunction with the Random
   Forest ensemble learning method. Finally, we discuss the practical
   applicability of our classifier for mapping and visualizing
   quality-related concerns into the codebase with an example from the
   Derby project. To summarize, this work represents an effort and an early
   awareness to improve the underlying management of issue tracking systems
   and stakeholder requirements in open-source communities.},

Abstract = {An increasing number of free software tools have been made available for

   biologists and related life scientists with no or little knowledge of
   image processing. In this review, we give an overview of available tools
   and guidelines about which tools the users should use to segment
   fluorescence micrographs. We selected 15 free tools and divided them
   into stand-alone, Matlab-based, ImageJ-based, free demo versions of
   commercial tools and data sharing tools. The review consists of two
   parts: First, we developed a criteria catalogue and rated the tools
   regarding structural requirements, functionality (flexibility,
   segmentation and image processing filters) and usability (documentation,
   data management, usability and visualization). Second, we performed an
   image processing case study with four representative fluorescence
   micrograph segmentation tasks with figure-ground and cell separation.
   The tools display a wide range of functionality and usability. In the
   image processing case study, we were able to perform figure-ground
   separation in all micrographs using mainly thresholding. Cell separation
   was not possible with most of the tools, because cell separation methods
   are provided only by a subset of the tools and are difficult to
   parametrize and to use. Most important is that the usability matches the
   functionality of a tool. To be usable, specialized tools with less
   functionality need to fulfill less usability criteria, whereas
   multipurpose tools need a well-structured menu and intuitive graphical
   user interface.},

Title = {Risk of adopting mission-critical OSS applications: an interpretive case
   study},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF OPERATIONS \& PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {34},
Number = {4},
Pages = {477-512},
Abstract = {Purpose - This study aims to explore the process of open source software
   (OSS) adoption in small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and more
   specifically open source enterprise resource planning (ERP) as a
   ``mission critical{''} OSS application in manufacturing. It also
   addresses the fundamental issue of ERP risk management that shapes this
   process.
   Design/methodology/approach - The approach is done through an
   interpretive case study of a small Canadian manufacturer that has
   adopted an open source ERP system.
   Findings - Interpreted in the light of the IT risk management, OSS and
   packaged application adoption literatures, results indicate that the
   small manufacturer successfully managed the adoption process in a rather
   intuitive manner, based on one guiding principle and nine practices. In
   analyzing the data, diffusion of innovation theory appeared to fit
   rather well with the situation observed and to offer rich insights to
   explain the mission-critical OSS adoption process.
   Research limitations/implications - A single case study of successful IT
   adoption should be eventually counterbalanced by future cases considered
   to be partial or total failures, using a wider multiple case study
   approach for comparative purposes. And this should include alternative
   theoretical interpretations and more detailed empirical work on the
   extent to which the distinctive features of OSS make its adoption more
   or less risk-laden. This initial effort should also be followed by
   further research on mission-critical OSS adoption in contexts other than
   SMEs (e.g. healthcare organizations) and other than ERP (e.g.
   customer-relationship management).
   Practical implications - This research confirms that open source is a
   credible alternative for SMEs that decide willingly or under external
   pressure to adopt a mission-critical system such as ERP. Moreover, it
   suggests that a high level of formalization is not always necessary.
   Originality/value - The authors argue that rich insights into the
   dynamics of the mission-critical OSS adoption process can be obtained by
   framing this process within an IT risk management context.},

Abstract = {Even though adaption of the Voodoo Floss Band is gaining momentum,
   evidence-based literature on its effectiveness remains sparse. The
   purpose of this quantitative observational design study was to
   investigate the effects of the Voodoo Floss Band on soft-tissue
   flexibility and perception of movement. A repeated-measures ANOVA with
   between-subjects factor demonstrated both groups significantly improved
   GH flexion range of motion from pretest to post-test but there was not a
   statistically significant difference between the groups. Perceptions of
   flexibility increased more for the Voodoo Floss Band group,
   demonstrating a psychological increase in GH flexion, but not a physical
   increase.},

Abstract = {Our focus in this paper is mainly on the GNU/LINUX operting system and
   the advantages that it affords developing countries seeking to bridge
   the global digital divide. In the early parts of the paper we argue
   that, although GNU/LINUX can generate substantial savings when used
   instead of the proprietary alternative, in numerous institutional
   settings, the most telling opportunities-for developing countries arise
   when this system is combined. with other ways of reducing computing
   costs. Policy, therefore, should not only consist of substituting
   GNU/LINUX for proprietary software in running the latest and most
   expensive hardware, but also of lowering these latter costs themselves.
   Later sections focus on the link between the choice of software and
   path-dependency (i.e. the notion that if one system gets ahead, it tends
   to lock out alternatives in the manner described by Brian Arthur). We
   suggest that the problem of proprietary lock-in in developing countries
   has been greatly accentuated by piracy of Microsoft operating systems
   and that the result is a stagnation of the technological capabilities in
   software that these countries need so badly.},

Abstract = {At present, enterprises face new economic models and dedicate a lot of
   time and resources to obtain, process, apply, and project information.
   If they do not collect the appropriate data, the information generated
   will not be accurate, the results will likely be wrong, and any decision
   made will not be the most appropriate. Business Intelligence and
   Business Analytics, used properly, can present competitive advantages,
   allowing organizations to know their current status and forecast future
   market behaviour, carrying out proactive actions based on predictive and
   prescriptive analysis. In this work, it is proposed to assist small and
   medium enterprises by integrating BI and BA into their information
   systems. The case of a local transport small and medium enterprise is
   presented where the benefits of applying free software tools, such as
   PowerBI Desktop, Orange, KNime, and Knowage, were analysed and

Abstract = {Artificial Intelligence is a branch of Computer Science with complex
   subjects. A trend in the teaching and learning of Artificial
   Intelligence is to use software where students modify the source code.
   However, teachers do not use the freedoms of free software in their
   classrooms. Based on a previous review, it is difficult to see
   methodological indications to use or create new programs with these
   characteristics for other teaching-learning processes. The goal of this
   work is to develop a model of integration of educational free software
   to the teaching-learning process of Artificial Intelligence. The authors
   use several research methods: historical-logical, analysis and
   synthesis, functional-structural-systemic and modeling. The model has
   three fundamental components. The conceptual component represents the
   principles and their theoretical foundations. The structural component
   represents the main elements that intervene in the integration. The
   instrumental component constitutes the materialization of the model and
   contains three stages: preparation, execution and evaluation. The
   authors used the focus group technique, a pre-experiment and Iadov's
   satisfaction technique to validate the model. These methods made it
   possible to verify the relevance of the model, its good acceptance by
   the teachers and the acceptable satisfaction of the students after the
   first application of the model.},

Abstract = {The lack of computational tools, i.e. software, often hinders the proper
   teaching and application of geophysical data processing in academic
   institutions in Indonesia. Although there are academic licensing options
   for commercial software, such options are still way beyond the financial
   capability of some academic institutions. Academic community members
   (both lecturers and students) are supposed to be creative and
   resourceful to overcome such situation. Therefore, capability for
   writing computer programs or codes is a necessity. However, there are
   also many computer programs and even software that are freely available
   on the internet. Generally, the utility of the freely distributed
   software is limited for demonstration only or for visualizing and
   exchanging data. The paper discusses the utility of Geosoft's Oasis
   Montaj Viewer along with USGS GX programs that are available for free.
   Useful gravity and magnetic advanced data processing (i.e. gradient
   calculation, spectral analysis etc.) can be performed ``correctly{''}
   without any approximation that sometimes leads to dubious results and

Abstract = {Medium-sized, open-participation Open Source Software (OSS) projects do
   not usually perform explicit software process improvement on any routine
   basis. It would be useful to understand how to get such a project to
   accept a process improvement proposal and hence to perform process
   innovation. We want to determine an effective and feasible qualitative
   research method for studying the above question. We present
   (narratively) a case study of how we worked towards and eventually found
   such a research method. The case involves four attempts at collecting
   suitable data about innovation episodes (direct participation (twice),
   polling developers for episodes, manually finding episodes in mailing
   list archives) and the adaptation of the Grounded Theory data analysis
   methodology. Direct participation allows gathering rather rich data, but
   does not allow for observing a sufficiently large number of innovation
   episodes. Polling developers for episodes did not prove to be useful.
   Using mailing list archives to find data to be analyzed is both feasible
   and effective. We also describe how the data thus found can be analyzed
   based on the Grounded Theory Method with suitable adjustments.
   By-and-large, our findings ought to apply to studying various phenomena
   in OSS development processes that are similarly heavyweight and
   infrequent. However, specific details may block this possibility and we
   cannot predict which details that might be. The amount of effort
   involved in direct participation approaches to qualitative research can
   easily be underestimated. Also, survey approaches are not well-suited
   for many process issues in OSS, because too few developers are
   sufficiently process-conscious. An approach based on passive observation
   is a viable alternative in the OSS context due to the availability of
   large amounts of fairly complete archival data.},

Abstract = {Free/libre and open source software are frequently described as a single

   investigated. This paper presents seven case studies of businesses, five
   of which were founded by people who identify with the free/libre
   software movement. The result is a theory that small businesses founded
   by free/libre software advocates have three characteristics of social
   entrepreneurships. First, social benefit is prioritized over wealth
   creation. Second, the business's social mission is not incidental but is
   furthered through its for-pro fit activities, rather than supported by
   the company's profits. Third, the company's success is de fined in part
   by the success of its social mission. Free/libre software entrepreneurs
   who recognize their activities as social entrepreneurships can bene fit
   from the existing literature on the unique challenges faced by
   socially-oriented businesses.},

Abstract = {Software reliability growth models (SRGMs) proposed on the foundations
   of Non-Homogenous Poisson Process (NHPP) have been the most accepted way
   to analyze reliability growth of a software since 1970's. Henceforth,
   Literature witnesses the evolution of SRGMs in terms of different
   assumptions, parameters, performance etc. This study is an attempt to
   model reliability growth phenomenon for Open Source Software (OSS). As
   the development process followed by OSS significantly differs from
   proprietary software, traditional software engineering SDLC models can't
   be followed for its development. OSS development procedure does not
   incorporate a dedicated testing phase and therefore negligible effort
   expenditure is done on testing of software prior its release. The volume
   of volunteer participation in its operational phase thus becomes a
   significant criterion in the representation of its reliability growth.
   Also, the impact of sudden changes in fault detection process
   (change-point) due to several reasons like variations in fault density,
   irregular team size, volunteer expertise etc is captured in proposed
   SRGM. This paper suggests a reliability model based on user growth with
   the concept of change point to better cater the heterogeneity in
   software failure process. Failure data of GNOME 2.0 is used in this
   paper reliability growth analysis. Unknown parameters are estimated
   using Least Square Estimation regression technique. Performance
   inspection of proposed SRGM is carried out using goodness-of-fit
   criteria like Mean square error (MSE), Coefficient of Determination
   (R-2), Predictive Ratio Risk (PRR), and Predictive Power (PP). The study
   recommends that introduction of the change-point in SRGM improves
   prediction capability of the model and hence establishes an evidence of
   its applicability.},

Title = {Quantitative Analysis of Fish Morphology Through Landmark and

Journal = {BIO-PROTOCOL},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {14},
Number = {20},
Month = {OCT 20},
Abstract = {Morphology underpins key biological and evolutionary processes that
   remain elusive. This is in part due to the limitations in robustly and
   quantitatively analyzing shapes within and between groups in an unbiased
   and high- throughput manner. Geometric morphometrics (GM) has emerged as
   a widely employed technique for studying shape variation in biology and
   evolution. This study presents a comprehensive workflow for conducting
   geometric morphometric analysis of fish morphology. The step-by-step
   manual provides detailed instructions for using popular free software,
   such as the TPS series, MorphoJ, ImageJ, and R, to carry out generalized
   Procrustes analysis (GPA), principal component analysis (PCA),
   discriminant function analysis (DFA), canonical variate analysis (CVA),
   mean shape analysis, and thin plate spline analysis (TPS). The Momocs
   package in R is specifically utilized for in-depth analysis of fish
   outlines. In addition, selected functions from the dplyr package are
   used to assist in the analysis. The full process of fish outline
   analysis is covered, including extracting outline coordinates,
   converting and scaling data, defining landmarks, creating data objects,
   analyzing outline differences, and visualizing results. In conclusion,
   the current protocol compiles a detailed method for evaluating fish
   shape variation based on landmarks and outlines. As the field of GM
   continues to evolve and related software develops rapidly, the
   limitations associated with morphological analysis of fish are expected
   to decrease. Interoperable data formats and analytical methods may
   facilitate the sharing of morphological data and help resolve related
   scientific problems. The convenience of this protocol allows for fast
   and effective morphological analysis. Furthermore, this detailed
   protocol could be adapted to assess image-based differences across a
   broader range of species or to analyze morphological data of the same
   species from different origins.},

Abstract = {Structural analysis and computer science are central subjects in the

   intended software accounts for complex interrelations of the structural

   emphasize the importance of an easy access to the code and the
   possibility to implement individual ideas. The claims and basic
   conditions demand a strategy, which is different to the software
   development of commercially used products. Due to the steady fluctuation
   of the software developers merely temporary teams and an unforced
   community of users result. Their feedback and loyalty to the software
   project are mainly based on individual benefit but may also be motivated
   by idealism. From our point of view, civil engineering has a broad base
   to use software development as an interface between education and
   profession. We discuss our experience for such a project and about an
   experiment to benefit from building up a social network in this context.

   too far from their skill set. However, little is known about how
   effective newcomers are in identifying the skills needed to resolve an

   the students' answers to those collected from 6 professional developers.
   In general, students misidentified and missed several skills
   (f-measure=0.37). Students had results closer to professional developers
   for skills related to database, operating infrastructure, programming
   concepts, and programming language, and they had worse results in
   identifying skills related to debugging and program comprehension. Our

Abstract = {Many studies have shown the benefits of introducing open-source projects
   into teaching Software Engineering (SE) courses. However, there are
   several limitations of existing studies that limit the wide adaptation
   of open-source projects in a classroom setting, including (1) the
   selected project is limited to one particular project, (2) most studies
   only investigated on its effect on teaching a specific SE concept, and
   (3) students may make mistakes in their contribution which leads to poor
   quality code. Meanwhile, software companies have successfully launched
   programs like Google Summer of Code (GSoC) and FindBugs ``fixit{''} to
   contribute to open-source projects. Inspired by the success of these
   programs, we propose GitHub-OSS Fixit, a team-based course project where
   students are taught to contribute to open-source Java projects by fixing
   bugs reported in GitHub. We described our course outline to teach
   students SE concepts by encouraging the usages of several automated
   program analysis tools. We also included the carefully designed
   instructions that we gave to students for participating in GitHub-OSS
   Fixit. As all lectures and labs are conducted online, we think that our
   course design could help in guiding future online SE courses. Overall,
   our survey results show that students think that GitHub-OSS Fixit could
   help them to improve many skills and apply the knowledge taught in
   class. In total, 154 students have submitted 214 pull requests to 24
   different Java projects, in which 93 of them have been merged, and 46
   have been closed by developers.},

Abstract = {Integrated Information Systems have become the standard in both small
   and large companies as the most effective approach to managing critical
   business processes, information flows, and supporting better decision
   making. Taking note of the Free/Libre \& Open Source Software (FLOSS)
   movement rise and benefits as well, in the contemporary climate of
   fierce competition. A ready made FLOSS Enterprise Resource Planning
   (ERP) System that offer great opportunities for cost reduction and
   quality improvement is always a wiser decision for Developing Countries'
   Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SME) over getting a ``From
   scratch{''} software solution. The aim of this paper is to provide
   further understanding of issues surrounding adoption of FLOSS ERP by SME
   in Developing Countries. We employed the Unified Theory of Acceptance
   and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT2) model to determine the strength of
   predictors for SMEs' managers and directors' intention to accept and use
   FLOSS ERP systems of better operational, tactical and strategical
   decision making. Questionnaires were administered to 200 SMEs' managers
   and directors in the Kingdom of Morocco, Republic of Tunisia and
   Republic of Ivory Coast, with 177 returned, a xx\% return rate.
   LimeSurvey and Google Forms have been used to collect data through web
   based surveys published on-line, sent to people via email and via social
   networks profiles, groups and pages. R Software for Statistical
   Computing, Psych and Lavaan R packages for Structural Equation Modeling
   were used to analyze data collected. The measurement and structure model
   was examined using Structural Equation Modeling. Constructs Performance
   Expectancy (PE) and Effort Expectancy (EE) significantly predicted
   Behavioral Intention (BI) to use FLOSS ERP, where Social influence (SI),
   Price Value (PV) and Use Behavior (UB) were statistically insignificant,
   as was Facilitating Conditions (FC), Hedonic Motivation (HM), Habit (HT)
   on both UB and BI. We recommend that future studies should differentiate
   between SME's obtaining aids from government or NGOs, and other SMEs
   that depends on its own resources, for more reliable results and
   conclusions.},

Abstract = {In this article, an event-triggered adaptive fuzzy finite-time dynamic
   surface control (DSC) is presented for a class of strict-feedback
   nonlinear fractional-order systems (FOSs) with full-state constraints.
   The fuzzy logic systems (FLSs) are employed to approximate uncertain
   nonlinear functions in the backstepping process, the dynamic surface
   method is applied to overcome the inherent computational complexity from
   the virtual controller and its fractional-order derivative, and the
   barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) is used to handle the full-state
   constraints. By introducing the finite-time stability criteria from
   fractional-order Lyapunov method, it is verified that the tracking error
   converges to a small neighborhood near the zero and the full-state
   constraints are satisfied within a predetermined finite time. Moreover,
   reducing the communication burden can be guaranteed without the
   occurrence of Zeno behavior, and the example is given to demonstrate the
   effectiveness of the proposed controller.},

Abstract = {Treatment of gum disease often requires antibiotic treatment. In this
   study, our objective was to advance the practicality of drug-coated
   floss as an intra gum pocket drug delivery system. The initial design of
   this delivery system has been previously reported by us. Here, we
   advance the concept further through in vitro and in vivo evaluation. A
   floss piece was dip coated in the middle section with model molecules
   leaving free ends for holding. Porcine gum tissues were used ex vivo and
   in vivo to evaluate the coated floss, including effect of coating
   thickness on delivery efficiency, ability to deliver more than one type
   of molecule (one hydrophilic and one hydrophobic), mechanical properties
   using a scratch test, and finally retention of delivered material in
   vivo in the porcine model. After reaching a certain coating thickness,
   the delivery efficiency of the coated floss decreased, indicating the
   presence of an optimal coating thickness. Hydrophobic and hydrophilic
   molecules were successfully coated and delivered with high efficiency
   into gum pockets. The scratch test indicated that the coatings were
   resilient. Lastly, the in vivo analysis showed that the drug coating was
   delivered into the porcine gum pocket with about 65\% efficiency, and
   the coatings could maintain extended residency within the gum pocket
   despite the native adverse environment of the oral cavity. Overall, this
   data shows that drug-coated floss can act as a drug delivery vehicle and
   has potential to provide a minimally invasive and practical method for
   the delivery of drugs into the gum pockets.},

Abstract = {In this paper I draw on two case studies to examine participatory
   learning in Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS). I contribute to
   prior work on learning within FLOSS and also to the learning sciences by
   illustrating how FLOSS supports lifelong learning and working by
   providing an ecosystem that allows participants to grow their knowledge
   of both technical and nontechnical skills over time through their
   association with different projects and people. I trace the learning
   trajectories of two participants from high school until they enter the
   professional workforce and beyond. I argue that FLOSS participation
   represents an ideal networked form of learning as it provides both
   socio-cognitive support for short term activities and also
   socio-temporal support for long term participation and learning. It is a
   unique form of apprenticeship that exists concurrently with formal
   educational experiences but unlike traditional apprenticeship
   experiences it succeeds by spanning different spatialities - place/space
   and technology mix and temporal scales.},

Abstract = {Interpersonal trust plays a crucial role in facilitating collaborative
   tasks, such as software development. While previous research recognizes
   the significance of trust in an organizational setting, there is a lack
   of understanding in how trust is exhibited in OSS distributed teams,
   where there is an absence of direct, in-person communications. To foster
   trust and collaboration in OSS teams, we need to understand what trust
   is and how it is exhibited in written developer communications (e.g.,
   pull requests, chats). In this paper, we first investigate various
   dimensions of trust to identify the ways trusting behavior can be
   observed in OSS. Next, we sample a set of 100 GitHub pull requests from
   Apache Software Foundation (ASF) projects, to analyze and demonstrate
   how each dimension of trust can be exhibited. Our findings provide
   preliminary insights into cues that might be helpful to automatically
   assess team dynamics and establish interpersonal trust in OSS teams,
   leading to successful and sustainable OSS.},

Abstract = {The Jzeren area in southwestern Norway has experienced great changes in
   sea-levels and sedimentary environments during the Weichselian, and some
   of these changes are recorded at Foss-Eikeland. Four diamictons
   interbedded with glaciomarine and glaciofluvial sediments are exposed in
   a large gravel pit situated above the post-glacial marine limit. The
   interpretation of these sediments has implications for the history of
   both the inland ice and the Norwegian Channel Ice Stream. During a
   Middle Weichselian interstadial, a large glaciofluvial delta prograded
   into a shallow marine environment along the coast of Jaeren. A minor
   glacial advance deposited a gravelly journal of Quaternary Science
   diamicton, and a glaciomarine diamicton was deposited during a following
   marine transgression. This subsequently was reworked by grounded ice,
   forming a well-defined boulder pavement. The boulder pavement is
   followed by glaciomarine clay with a lower, laminated part and an upper
   part of sandy clay. The laminated clay probably was deposited under
   sea-ice, whereas more open glaciomarine conditions prevailed during
   deposition of the upper part. The clay is intersected by clastic dykes
   protruding from the overlying, late Weichselian till. Preconsolidation
   values from the marine clay suggest an ice thickness of at least 500 m
   during the last glacial phase. The large variations in sea-level
   probably are a combined effect of eustasy and glacio-isostatic changes
   caused by an inland ice sheet and an ice stream in the Norwegian
   Channel. Copyright (C) 2002 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.},

   The team consists of 16 Cardiologists to ensure daytime and nighttime
   guards, a nighttime on-call service, on-call service for full day on
   weekends and public holidays and a 24h hemodynamic on-call. Special
   situations and exceptions are taken into account.
   An original software was developed in Java to input data, generate the
   mathematical model and read back the solution, relying on a open SQL
   database. The solution is obtained by GUSEK, an open tool to the linear
   programming solver GLPK minimizing the sum of the deviations from
   individual quotas.
   The system generates the shifts monthly. Typical computation time is few
   minutes to ensure that a solution exists and few hours to obtain a
   highly optimized solution. The system is in use for 22 months. It
   provides equal assignment of Cardiologists to each type of shift with
   uniform like distribution, avoiding immediate repetition of the same
   shift. The software is open source available for download at:

Abstract = {The aims of this research are to explore and evaluate the nature of the
   relationship between open source software (OSS) and eGovemment maturity,
   as well as the factors impacting their development at a national level.
   The study proposes a theoretical framework, under the prism of which
   socio-economic, technological and institutional factors critical to
   eGovernment and OSS are revealed. The hypotheses are evaluated by means
   of an econometric model of simultaneous equations. In order to better
   gauge the results of the hypotheses, the model is evaluated over
   economic environments at different stages of development.
   Social development and OSS growth were found to be the most important
   facilitators for eGovemment maturity, across countries of all stages of
   development Institutional quality, technological openness, freedom in
   press and the macro-economic environment exerted different weights of
   importance across different country groupings. Findings also suggest
   that technological infrastructure and innovation are important drivers
   for OSS growth across countries at all stages of development. Research
   results can provide useful input for research in eGov, as they open up
   new directions in the study of the relation with OSS. (C) 2015 Elsevier

   components. The maturity model was designed by first reviewing industry
   interviews, current best practice guidelines and other maturity models.
   After that, the practices were refined through industry interviews,
   resulting in six capability areas covering in total 21 practices. These
   were then evaluated based on their importance according to industry
   experts. It is shown that the practices are seen as highly important,
   indicating that the model can be seen as a valuable tool when assessing
   strengths and weaknesses in an organization's ability to handle firmware

Abstract = {The IP Multimedia Sub-System (IMS) including the Service Delivery
   Platform (SDP) architectures on the one hand and the Operation- or
   Business Support Systeins (OSS/BSS) on the other hand represent the
   result of efforts by standard bodies and the teleconintunication -or
   information technology industry. New so-called third generation (3G) or
   triple play services can be delivered to the market by means of using
   these architectures as well as respective IT support systems.
   Furthermore, various market players, stakeholders or alliances will come
   up at the telecommunications arena. The paper will systematic ally
   consider all these subject matters and elaborate that the use of New
   Generation Systems and Software (NGOSS) principles will leverage the
   OSS/BSS as well as IMS/SDP promise. In other words, to provide
   efficiently IMS/SDP based services requires an ``IMS/SDP ready{''}
   OSS/BSS. There will be lots of well-known as well as quite a few new
   features to be provided by such an OSS/BSS. One example is that an
   ``IMS/SDP ready{''} OSS/BSS does not only provide all the existing
   services very quickly.. it must also be able to support the design and
   creation of new types of services including new types of network/IT
   resources which allow these new kinds of services at all. This will
   impact the whole IMS/SDP as well as OSS/BSS environment, beginning with
   the Service Creation Environment (SCE) up to the extension of the
   Inventory Management System as the heart of the operational processes.
   However, the use of such an OSS/BSS in concert with the IMS/SDP will
   play a key role in allowing the operator or service provider to reduce
   Operational Expenditure while at the same time, delivering the
   efficiencies needed to speed up both the service and infrastructure
   provisioning processes. A system integrator's potential contribution in
   concert with state-of-the-art IT architectures such as Enterprise
   Application Integration (EAI), Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) and
   Workflow Management in delivering, a project driven solution are also
   described by this paper.},

   impact of emergencies on open source software (OSS) development. As the
   core of this model, a metric system is used to comprehensively describe
   the OSS development process, which includes three dimensions: team
   activity, development activity, and development risk, with a total of 30
   metrics. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the model, we construct an
   empirical study analyzing the impact of COVID-19 on OSS development.
   This study is based on the development process events between January
   2019 and April 2022 belonging to 50 selected open source projects on
   GitHub. The results show that more than 72.4\% of projects were
   negatively impacted following the COVID19 outbreak. Interestingly, we
   observe that variants of covide19 did not exacerbate its impact on
   software development. On the contrary, some project development
   activities have obviously resumed, indicating that the development team
   has adapted and gradually got rid of the impact of the epidemic.},

Abstract = {Keystone components in green urban spaces can make a big difference in
   supporting either impoverished or rich animal communities. Trees that
   produce thousands of flowers at densities higher than that of herbs and
   produce much more nectar than the latter can be such keystone
   structures. However, there is a lack of specific information on trees,
   both native and alien, and their flower visitors in urban/suburban
   contexts, which blurs the conservation role that such species can
   perform. In 2019 and 2020, we thoroughly recorded the flower visitors to
   a silk-floss tree in suburban Guadalajara, Mexico. To our knowledge,
   this is the first comprehensive inventory of silk-floss tree flower
   visitors. We documented 79 species/morphospecies of insects; eight of
   birds, and one of mammals visiting the flowers. All, except two, are
   native to the region; three are endemic/quasi-endemic to Mexico. Besides
   direct and indirect floral resources, the silk-floss tree offered
   perches, resting/hiding cover, nesting substrate, and seed fibres used
   by several birds, and feeding substrate for gleaning insectivorous
   birds. Four species are on one or more conservation listings: monarch
   butterfly (endangered), pink-spotted swallowtail (vulnerable),
   sparkling-tailed hummingbird (threatened), and lesser long-nosed bat
   (near-threatened). Our data supports that small patches can enhance the
   quality of urban green spaces, and that rather than geographic origin,
   flower output drives visitation. Alien trees can be pollination
   enhancement `devices' for imperilled pollination networks. Silk-floss
   trees are a potential option for conservation-oriented urban greening,
   as well as to contribute to enhancing human enjoyment of nature, and
   provide opportunities for public outreach.},

Abstract = {Galicia has its main economic activity in the primary sector,
   highlighting in it, the livestock subsector, specialized in beef and
   dairy milk productions, it is a national reference in milk production
   accounts for almost 40\% of total sales and bringing together more than
   55\% of Spanish milk producers. The current situation of the majority of
   dairy farms in Galicia, with production costs steadily rising and
   stagnant incomes are critical for the future.
   Currently, due to the price paid by industry to producers they are in an
   extreme situation with similar production costs and incomes. The absence
   of specific tools that enable them to optimize their cost structure
   further aggravates the situation.
   Previous studies by this research group considered that the cost
   structure of Galician dairy farms, they made marginal investments in
   technical or consultancy services, management and administration.
   To improve this situation, the specific tools based on open source is
   proposed as an appropriate efficiency management tool for this business,
   unwilling to invest in individual management and used to follow the
   strategies dictated from the government.
   In this context there places the base of the investigation proposed as
   significant form of contributing solutions to the problems of the
   lacteal sector of Galicia.},

   particularly for recognizing discussants' intentions (e.g., suggesting,

   performance of this task. Online discussions are almost synchronous
   written conversations that can be analyzed applying computational
   linguistic techniques that build on the speech act theory. Our approach
   builds on this observation. We propose to analyze OSS mailing-list
   discussions in terms of the linguistic and non-linguistic acts expressed

   empirically evaluate it. We discuss the results of the first execution

Abstract = {Trentino is an Italian alpine region (about 6200 Km(2)) with a forest
   coverage exceeding 60\% of its whole surface. In the past, forest
   landscape has changed dramatically, especially in periods of forest
   over-exploitation. Previous studies in some Trentino sub-regions (Val di
   Fassa, Paneveggio) have identified these changes and the current trend
   of forest growth at the expenses of open areas, such as pastures and
   grasslands, due to the abandonment of rural areas. This phenomenon leads
   to the rapid Alpine landscape change and profoundly affects the
   ecological features of mountain ecosystems. To be able to monitor and to
   take future actions about this trend it is fundamental to know in detail
   the historical situation of the progressive changes on the land use that
   occurred over Trentino.
   The work aims to comprehensively reconstruct the forest cover of whole
   Trentino at high resolution (5m x 5m pixels) using a series of maps
   spanning a long period, consisting in historical maps, aerial images,
   remote sensed information and historical archives. The datasets were
   archived, processed and analyzed using the Free and Open Source Software
   (FOSS) GIS GRASS and QGIS. Historical maps include Atlas Tyrolensis
   (dated 1770), Theresianischer Kataster (dated 1859) and Italian Kingdom
   Forest Map (IKFM) of 1936. The aerial imagery dataset includes aerial
   images taken in 1954, which have been orthorectified during this
   research, and orthophotos available for years 1973, 1994, 2000, 2006,
   2010 and 2016. Remote sensed information includes Landsat and recent
   Lidar data, while historical archives consist mostly in Forest
   Management Plans available since around 1950. The versatility of the
   wide variety of modules supplied from the FOSS GRASS and QGIS enabled to
   perform a diverse set of analysis and pre-processing
   (e.g.:orthorectification) on a heterogeneous dataset of input images. We
   will focus on the different strategies and methodologies implemented in
   the FOSS GIS used to process the various types of geographic data,
   challenges for the future of the research and the fundamental role of
   the FOSS systems in this process.
   Quantifying forest change in the time-span of our dataset can be used to
   perform further analysis on ecosystem services, such as protection from
   soil erosion, and on modification of biome diversity and to create
   future change scenarios.},

Journal = {BUILDINGS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {11},
Number = {7},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {The detailed documentation of degradation constitutes a fundamental step
   for weathering diagnosis and, consequently, for successful planning and
   implementation of conservation measures for stone heritage. Mapping the
   surface patterns of stone is a non-destructive procedure critical for
   the qualitative and quantitative rating of the preservation state.
   Furthermore, mapping is employed for the annotation of weathering
   categories and the calculation of damage indexes. However, it is often a
   time-consuming task, which is conducted manually. Thus, practical
   methods need to be developed to automatize degradation mapping without
   significantly increasing the diagnostic process's cost for conservation
   specialists. This work aims to develop and evaluate a methodology based
   on affordable close-range sensing techniques, image processing, and free
   and open source software for the spatial description, annotation,
   qualitative analysis, and rating of stone weathering-induced damage.
   Low-cost cameras were used to record images in the visible,
   near-infrared, and thermal-infrared spectra. The application of
   photogrammetric techniques allowed for the generation of the necessary
   background, that was elaborated to extract thematic information. Digital
   image processing of the spatially and radiometrically corrected images
   and image mosaics enabled the straightforward transition to a spatial
   information environment simplifying the development of degradation maps.
   The digital thematic maps facilitated the rating of stone damage and the
   extraction of useful statistical data.},

Abstract = {Newcomers' seamless onboarding is important for open collaboration
   communities, particularly those that leverage outsiders' contributions
   to remain sustainable. Nevertheless, previous work shows that OSS
   newcomers often face several barriers to contribute, which lead them to
   lose motivation and even give up on contributing. A well-known way to
   help newcomers overcome initial contribution barriers is mentoring. This
   strategy has proven effective in offline and online communities, and to
   some extent has been employed in OSS projects. Studying mentors'
   perspectives on the barriers that newcomers face play a vital role in
   improving onboarding processes; yet, OSS mentors face their own
   barriers, which hinder the effectiveness of the strategy. Since little
   is known about the barriers mentors face, in this paper, we investigate
   the barriers that affect mentors and their newcomer mentees. We
   interviewed mentors from OSS projects and qualitatively analyzed their
   answers. We found 44 barriers: 19 that affect mentors; and 34 that
   affect newcomers (9 affect both newcomers and mentors). Interestingly,
   most of the barriers we identified (66\%) have a social nature.
   Additionally, we identified 10 strategies that mentors indicated to
   potentially alleviate some of the barriers. Since gender-related
   challenges emerged in our analysis, we conducted nine follow-up
   structured interviews to further explore this perspective. The
   contributions of this paper include: identifying the barriers mentors
   face; bringing the unique perspective of mentors on barriers faced by
   newcomers; unveiling strategies that can be used by mentors to support
   newcomers; and investigating gender-specific challenges in OSS
   mentorship. Mentors, newcomers, online communities, and educators can
   leverage this knowledge to foster new contributors to OSS projects.},

Abstract = {Many open source software (OSS) under various OSS projects are in action
   around the world. Considering the characteristics of OSS development and
   management projects, operation performance measures for OSS project
   management will take an irregular fluctuation in the long term of
   operation, because several developer and many users are closely related
   to the maintenance of OSS. Also, OSS projects will heavily depend the
   environment of internet network. This paper focuses on the irregular
   fluctuation of operation performance measures for OSS project
   management. We apply the double jump diffusion process models to the
   noisy cases in the operation of OSS. In particular, the maintenance
   effort is estimated by the stochastic differential equation model in
   terms of OSS project management. Moreover, we propose the method of
   maintenance effort management based on the double jump diffusion process
   model considering the irregular fluctuation of performance for OSS
   projects. Thereby, it will be helpful for the OSS developers and
   managers to understand the maintenance effort status of OSS from the
   standpoint of OSS project management. Also, we analyze actual data to
   show numerical examples of the proposed models with the characteristics
   considering noisy and jump of OSS projects.},

Title = {Matching terms of quality models and meta-models: toward a unified
   meta-model of OSS quality},
Journal = {SOFTWARE QUALITY JOURNAL},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {31},
Number = {3},
Pages = {721-773},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {ContextIn the last two decades, open-source software (OSS) has gained
   increasing attention due to its voluntary supporters, growing community,
   and ease of accessibility in cloud repositories. Standardization in OSS
   quality is of vital importance as a communication vehicle for
   stakeholders in identifying and selecting high-quality products. Thus,
   meta-models help to define a standardized language and enable to propose
   quality models that can be used to perform comparable
   measurements.Objective Considering the lack of a comprehensive
   meta-model of OSS quality in the literature, there appears a need to see
   a more complete picture of OSS quality and to represent its concepts
   more formally. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to develop a solid
   base for a comprehensive meta-model of OSS quality to create a common
   understanding among stakeholders.Method A systematic way has been
   followed toward developing a common structure, defining a consistent
   terminology and, finally, providing a meta-model of OSS quality. In this
   context, (1) the common structure of the quality models for OSS has been
   investigated, (2) the terms of the general-purpose meta-models of
   software quality have been analyzed based on the international
   standards, and (3) the terms of the quality models for OSS have been
   mapped with the elements of these meta-models.Results An initial
   meta-model of OSS quality, which employs a unified structure from the
   OSS quality models and eliminates the inconsistencies determined in the
   general-purpose meta-models of software quality, has been proposed and
   an implementation of this meta-model has been demonstrated.Conclusion
   This initial meta-model of OSS quality with a standard terminology can
   be taken as a guide by researchers who will propose or revise their OSS
   quality models. It will allow developing multiple OSS quality models
   with homogenous structure and terms, and also enable comparing the
   evaluation results obtained by these models.},

Title = {Beyond free software: An exploration of the business value of strategic
   open source},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF STRATEGIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {23},
Number = {3},
Pages = {226-238},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {The phenomenon of open source software (OSS) has been well studied from
   the software development perspective, but it has received much less
   attention from the perspective of business value. Nevertheless, OSS,
   when viewed as a value creation process rather than `free' software,
   provides businesses with value through access to knowledge and
   innovation capacity resident in online communities. This
   conceptualisation, which we label `strategic open source' requires firms
   to rethink their strategy and processes as there is a shift in focus
   from ownership to openness and collaboration with external parties.
   Nonetheless, the emergence of OSS poses a puzzle for conceptions of
   organisational theory. Therefore, a theorising process is needed in
   order to develop a deeper understanding of how value is created and
   captured with OSS. Using a field study of eleven European firms, this
   paper explores the creation and capture of business value from strategic
   open source. The findings reveal that while decision makers look to open
   innovation initiatives like OSS for value creation and capture, there is
   still a desire to remain self reliant, resulting in collaborative design
   (of external innovations) rather than collaborative decision making with
   value network partners in relation to how such innovations would help
   create and capture value within firms. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights

Abstract = {Objective: To translate and culturally adapt the Oxford Shoulder Score
   (OSS) to the European Portuguese language, and to test its reliability
   (internal consistency, reproducibility and measurement error) and
   validity (construct validity).
   Methods: The OSS Portuguese version was obtained through translations,
   back-translations, consensus panels, clinical review and cognitive
   pre-test. Portuguese OSS, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand
   (DASH) questionnaires, and the visual analogue scales of pain at rest
   {[}VAS rest] and during movement {[}VAS movement] were applied to III
   subjects with shoulder pain (degenerative or inflammatory disorders) and
   recommended for physical therapy. A clinical and sociodemographic
   questionnaire was also applied.
   Results: The reliability was good, with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient
   of 0.90, an intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of 0.92, a standard
   error of measurement (SEM) of 2.59 points and a smallest detectable
   change (SDC) ot 7.18 points. Construct validity was supported by the
   confirmation of three initial hypotheses involving expected significant
   correlation between OSS and other measures (DASH, VAS rest and VAS
   movement) and between OSS and the number of days of work absenteeism.
   Conclusion: The Portuguese OSS version presented suitable psychometric
   properties, in terms of reliability (internal consistency,
   reproducibility and measurement error) and validity (construct
   validity).},

Abstract = {The fast growing resources available by Grid and cloud computing provide
   new opportunities for the daily work of scientific and business
   communities. Here we present a deployed system deriving detailed
   information on hemodynamics and vessel wall stresses from common
   tomography data in a simple and efficient way. The system is suited for
   direct use e.g. by radiologists or cardiologists in medical planning and
   clinical research settings. Up to now, detailed numerical simulations of
   similar kinds have required the effort of specialized, large,
   multi-disciplinary groups. The deployment of the new system is based on
   resources maintained by the nationally funded german MediGRID project.
   This assures broad accessibility, low or no set-up and maintenance costs
   and a high security level. The implementationdesign facilitates
   intuitive interactive usage for user-intensive parts and full
   exploitation of high-performance-computing for the computationally
   intensive components of the processing pipeline. Virtual vascular
   surgery is supported, including the placement of stents, clipping of
   aneurysms, and vessel dilation. The effect of such interventions can be
   explored, including parametric effects like stent position or porosity,
   as part of the intervention planning. Physical fields of interest like
   pressure, wall shear stress, blood flow volume rate, or their
   correlations can be inspected as time series or as interactive
   three-dimensional scenes. The grid related parts of the workflow are
   controlled readily over a web interface.},

Abstract = {Software developers who want to start contributing to an Open Source
   Software (OSS) project often struggle to find appropriate first tasks.
   The voluntary, self-organizing distribution of decentralized labor and
   the distinct nature of some OSS projects intensifies this challenge.
   Mentors, who work closely with newcomers, develop strategies to
   recommend tasks. However, to date neither the challenges mentors face in
   recommending tasks nor their strategies have been formally documented or
   studied. In this paper, we interviewed mentors of well-established OSS
   projects (n=10) and qualitatively analyzed their answers to identify
   both challenges and strategies related to recommending tasks for
   newcomers. Then, we employed a survey (n=30) to map the strategies to
   challenges and collect additional strategies. Our study identified 7
   challenges and 13 strategies related to task recommendation. Strategies
   such as ``tagging the issues based on difficulty,{''} ``adding
   documentation,{''} ``assigning a small task first and then challenge the
   newcomers with bigger tasks:' and ``dividing tasks into smaller
   pieces{''} were frequently mentioned as ways to overcome multiple
   challenges. Our results provide insights for mentors about the
   strategies OSS communities can use to guide their mentors and for tool
   builders who design automated support for task assignment.},

Journal = {ACM TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING AND METHODOLOGY},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {31},
Number = {2},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Software development effort estimation (SDEE) generally involves
   leveraging the information about the effort spent in developing similar
   software in the past. Most organizations do not have access to
   sufficient and reliable forms of such data from past projects. As such,
   the existing SDEE methods suffer from low usage and accuracy.
   We propose an efficient SDEE method for open source software, which
   provides accurate and fast effort estimates. The significant
   contributions of our article are (i) novel SDEE software metrics derived
   from developer activity information of various software repositories,
   (ii) an SDEE dataset comprising the SDEE metrics' values derived from
   approximately 13,000 GitHub repositories from 150 different software
   categories, and (iii) an effort estimation tool based on SDEE metrics
   and a software description similarity model. Our software description
   similarity model is basically a machine learning model trained using the
   PVA on the software product descriptions of GitHub repositories. Given
   the software description of a newly envisioned software, our tool yields
   an effort estimate for developing it.
   Our method achieves the highest standardized accuracy score of 87.26\%
   (with Cliff's d = 0.88 at 99.999\% confidence level) and 42.7\% with the
   automatically transformed linear baseline model. Our software artifacts

Journal = {ATMOSPHERIC RESEARCH},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {301},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Organosulfates (OSs) are an important component of secondary organic
   aerosols (SOA), accounting for similar to 30\% of total organic aerosol.
   In this study, OSs in eastern China were investigated to understand
   their diurnal evolution, source, and volatility using high-resolution
   mass spectrometry. In polluted days, we identified a total of 5,147
   organic molecules, including 1,206 OS molecules. The average molecular
   weight (m.w.) and carbon chain length of OSs in this study exceeded the
   commonly recognized range (500 Da). OSs were mostly composed of newly
   formed low oxidation state compounds as well as aged aliphatic and
   aromatic ones. The number and abundance of aromatic and aliphatic OSs
   with low saturation, volatility, O/C-w as well as H/C-w increased
   greatly with rising PM2.5 concentrations. The daytime photo-oxidation
   resulted in a large number of high m.w. (HMW, > 500 Da) OSs. OSs with
   m.w. <500 Da, and many oxygen atoms were newly generated during the
   nighttime, mainly dominated by liquid-phase oxidation processes. The
   result of OSs with higher m.w. and lower volatility was due to increased
   dimerization and oligomerization. During pollution formatting, OSs with
   small DBE values (between 0 and 6) appeared; meanwhile, the number of
   highly unsaturated OSs with DBE > 7 (mainly aromatic OSs) increased by
   about 34\%. This study is useful for clarifying the secondary formation
   and properties of HMW OSs in a polluted environment in China.},

Abstract = {The information society is ever-increasingly dependent upon Information
   Security Management Systems (ISMSs), and the availability of these
   systems has come to be vital to the evolution of SMEs. However, this
   type of companies requires ISMSs which have been adapted to their
   particular characteristics, and which are optimised from the point of
   view of the resources that are necessary to install and maintain them.
   This paper concentrates on the development of a process for ISMSs that
   will allow the level of security of critical applications installed in
   these sytems, i.e., Operative Systems and Data Base Management Systems,
   to be measured. This process is currently being directly applied in real
   cases, thus leading to an improvement in its application.},

Abstract = {The development of Web applications has a crucial role as most
   organizations have their own corporate Web applications to meet the
   needs of their respective businesses. Different needs create different
   complexities which represent a new challenge to Web application
   development. In order to ensure the timely delivery of a project,
   software providers offering this service choose to use Open Sources
   (OSS) as an alternative. Since OSS consist of an existing framework that
   can be implemented directly into the application, how far does this
   affect the complexity of the effort estimation? A number of research
   papers have outlined the efforts made to refine the complexity of this
   field. However, to our best knowledge a systematic overview of the
   research done on Web application development that involves OSS usage
   does not appear to exist. Hence, the aim of this paper is to conduct a
   systematic literature review (SLR) of OSS Web application development.
   For this purpose, 34 papers from a total of 67 papers were identified
   and studied. The findings of this study indicate that (a) no research
   has been carried out on the field mentioned; (b) there is no early
   effort estimation model for Web projects that involve the usage of OSS.
   Therefore, this work provides an overview of the field besides
   identifying future research possibilities.},

Abstract = {The Rey Complex Figure Organizational Strategy Score (RCF-OSS) was
   devised for pediatric populations to cater for developmental
   variability. A sample consisting of 376 children aged between 7.0 and
   13.11 years was recruited for the standardization of RCF-OSS. The
   interrater reliability (.85 to .92) and temporal stability (.79 to .94)
   of the RCF-OSS are acceptable. RCF-OSS correlated moderately with RCF
   accuracy memory and organization, however it seems to be measuring an
   independent aspect of performance, possibly strategy. Moderate Linear
   relationships were observed with executive function and memory measures.
   Considerable age-related variation in strategy formation was observed
   with significant maturity occurring between the ages of 7 years and 11
   years. Surprisingly, older children used fragmented strategies more than
   the younger age groups. In conclusion, the RCF-OSS is a useful adjunct
   to traditional accuracy scoring procedures, and the normative data
   indicates that organizational skills may not consolidate until middle to
   late adolescence.},

Abstract = {Purpose To develop a software solution that supports management and
   clinical review of patient data from electronic medical records
   databases or claims databases for pharmacoepidemiological drug safety
   studies.
   Methods We used open source software to build a data management system
   and an internet application with a Flex client on a Java application
   server with a MySQL database backend. The application is hosted on
   Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud. This solution named Phynx supports data
   management, Web-based display of electronic patient information, and
   interactive review of patient-level information in the individual
   clinical context. This system was applied to a dataset from the UK
   General Practice Research Database (GPRD).
   Results Our solution can be setup and customized with limited
   programming resources, and there is almost no extra cost for software.
   Access times are short, the displayed information is structured in
   chronological order and visually attractive, and selected information
   such as drug exposure can be blinded. External experts can review
   patient profiles and save evaluations and comments via a common Web
   browser.
   Conclusions Phynx provides a flexible and economical solution for
   patient-level review of electronic medical information from databases
   considering the individual clinical context. It can therefore make an
   important contribution to an efficient validation of outcome assessment
   in drug safety database studies. Copyright (c) 2009 John Wiley \& Sons,

Title = {Precision Agriculture Workflow, from Data Collection to Data Management
   Using FOSS Tools: An Application in Northern Italy Vineyard},
Journal = {ISPRS INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF GEO-INFORMATION},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {10},
Number = {4},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {In the past decades, technology-based agriculture, also known as
   Precision Agriculture (PA) or smart farming, has grown, developing new
   technologies and innovative tools to manage data for the whole
   agricultural processes. In this framework, geographic information, and
   spatial data and tools such as UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) and
   multispectral optical sensors play a crucial role in the geomatics as
   support techniques. PA needs software to store and process spatial data
   and the Free and Open Software System (FOSS) community kept pace with
   PA's needs: several FOSS software tools have been developed for data
   gathering, analysis, and restitution. The adoption of FOSS solutions,
   WebGIS platforms, open databases, and spatial data infrastructure to
   process and store spatial and nonspatial acquired data helps to share
   information among different actors with user-friendly solutions.
   Nevertheless, a comprehensive open-source platform that, besides
   processing UAV data, allows directly storing, visualising, sharing, and
   querying the final results and the related information does not exist.
   Indeed, today, the PA's data elaboration and management with a FOSS
   approach still require several different software tools. Moreover,
   although some commercial solutions presented platforms to support
   management in PA activities, none of these present a complete workflow
   including data from acquisition phase to processed and stored
   information. In this scenario, the paper aims to provide UAV and PA
   users with a FOSS-replicable methodology that can fit farming
   activities' operational and management needs. Therefore, this work
   focuses on developing a totally FOSS workflow to visualise, process,
   analyse, and manage PA data. In detail, a multidisciplinary approach is
   adopted for creating an operative web-sharing tool able to manage Very
   High Resolution (VHR) agricultural multispectral-derived information
   gathered by UAV systems. A vineyard in Northern Italy is used as an
   example to show the workflow of data generation and the data structure
   of the web tool. A UAV survey was carried out using a six-band
   multispectral camera and the data were elaborated through the Structure
   from Motion (SfM) technique, resulting in 3 cm resolution orthophoto. A
   supervised classifier identified the phenological stage of under-row
   weeds and the rows with a 95\% overall accuracy. Then, a set of
   GIS-developed algorithms allowed Individual Tree Detection (ITD) and
   spectral indices for monitoring the plant-based phytosanitary
   conditions. A spatial data structure was implemented to gather the data
   at canopy scale. The last step of the workflow concerned publishing data
   in an interactive 3D webGIS, allowing users to update the spatial
   database. The webGIS can be operated from web browsers and desktop GIS.
   The final result is a shared open platform obtained with nonproprietary
   software that can store data of different sources and scales.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) has been widely used to accelerate software
   development, inevitably exposing downstr omissions and false positives;
   omissions put applications and their users at risk, and false positives
   increase the burden on software developers and users. Therefore, in this
   paper, we propose a two-phase based approach for JAVA OSS vulnerability
   analysis. To reduce underreporting, we construct a comprehensive
   third-party library and vulnerability association database; to avoid
   false positives, first, we use a static analysis method to extract the
   structure-aware call graph (SACG) of oss and locate the information of
   the vulnerability functions; second, we compare the similarity between
   the OSS vulnerability functions and the pre-patch and post-patch
   functions based on the vulnerability patches to determine the existence
   of the patches in the OSS, and then verify the OSS vulnerability
   information. We evaluate the method on a dataset of 7 open source
   projects and 167 vulnerability information, and the F1 value of the
   method is 0.779, which is higher than the currently available SOTA
   tools.},

Abstract = {To foster collaboration and inclusivity in Open Source Software (OSS)

   their design lacks an understanding of the unique nature and triggers of
   toxicity in OSS discussions, highlighting the need for further
   investigation. In this study, we employ Moral Foundations Theory to
   examine the relationship between moral principles and toxicity in OSS.
   Specifically, we analyze toxic communications in GitHub issue threads to
   identify and understand five types of moral principles exhibited in
   text, and explore their potential association with toxic behavior. Our
   preliminary findings suggest a possible link between moral principles
   and toxic comments in OSS communications, with each moral principle
   associated with at least one type of toxicity. The potential of MFT in

Pages = {1379-1394},
Abstract = {Volunteer-based open-source production has become a significant new
   model for the organization of software development. Economics often
   pictures this phenomenon as a case of signalling: individuals engage in
   the volunteer programming of open-source software (OSS) as a
   labour-market signal resulting in a wage premium. Yet, this explanation
   could so far not be empirically tested. This article fills this gap by
   estimating an upper-bound composite wage premium of voluntary OSS
   contributions and by separating the potential signalling effect of OSS
   engagement from other effects. Although some 70\% of OSS contributors
   believe that OSS involvement benefits their careers, we find no actual
   labour-market premium for OSS engagement. The presence of other motives,
   such as fun of play or altruism, renders OSS contributions too noisy to
   function as a signal.},

Title = {Optimized single-step (OSS) chemistry models for the simulation of
   turbulent premixed flame propagation},
Journal = {COMBUSTION AND FLAME},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {192},
Pages = {130-148},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {A simple and efficient triple-optimization procedure (TOP) is introduced
   to determine single-step chemistry model parameters. The cornerstone of
   the proposed approach lies in the introduction of a fictive (or virtual)
   chemical species, the physical characteristics of which are set to
   recover some essential properties of combustion and flames. Special
   emphasis is presently placed on the capability of such a global kinetic
   scheme to recover three parameters that are recognized as the most
   influential in terms of turbulence chemistry interactions and turbulent
   premixed combustion regimes. These parameters are (i) the burnt gases
   temperature T-b, which settles the value of the thermal expansion factor
   tau = (T-b - T-u)/T-u, (ii) the propagation velocity delta(0)(L), which
   is mandatory to reproduce the flame dynamics, and (iii) the laminar
   premixed flame thickness delta(0)(L). In practice, the thermochemical
   properties of the fictive species (hereafter denoted by A(Phi)) are set
   to account for the impact of dissociation effects and partial oxidation
   of the fuel, i.e., presence of species other than H2O and CO2 in the
   burnt gases, which allows to recover a satisfactory estimate of T-b. The
   value of the pre-exponential factor associated to the single-step
   Arrhenius law is also optimized to reproduce the laminar flame
   propagation velocity. Finally, the transport characteristics are
   determined to recover a satisfactory estimate of the thermal flame
   thickness. The method is general in its principles and quite easy to
   implement. It is applicable to any couple of fuel and oxidizer.
   Attention is focused on the application of the method to any
   stoichiometry but it is also shown that the influence of both pressure
   and fresh reactants temperature can be recovered. The performance of the
   resulting optimized single step (OSS) chemistry models are assessed
   through a direct comparison with detailed chemistry results.
   Computations of one-dimensional laminar flames are performed with the
   OSS model using the cantera software for a wide range of pressure
   levels, fresh reactant temperatures, and equivalence ratios. Obtained
   results do show that the flame propagation velocity is correctly
   reproduced for the whole range of parameters, with a maximum value
   recovered in the vicinity of stoichiometry, a decrease towards rich
   conditions, and a satisfactory pressure dependence. Burnt gases
   temperature as well as thermal flame thickness values are also in
   excellent agreement with those issued from the reference detailed
   kinetics models. The OSS model is then used to perform direct numerical
   simulation (DNS) computations of flame kernel growths in both laminar
   and turbulent conditions. The comparison of obtained OSS results with
   detailed chemistry computations further confirms the relevance and
   performance of the proposed methodology. (C) 2018 The Combustion

Abstract = {Developers constantly make various assumptions regarding requirements,
   environment, design decisions, etc. during software development.
   However, these assumptions are usually implicit and undocumented and
   there is a lack of understanding regarding what assumptions have been
   made and discussed in software development. Open Source Software (OSS)
   is recently becoming an important part of software industry. To this
   end, we conducted an exploratory study on assumptions in OSS
   development. We extracted and analyzed 9006 posts from the developer
   mailing list of Hibernate (a popular OSS project), in order to explore
   (1) assumption expression and (2) classification, (3) the trend of
   assumptions over time, and (4) related software artifacts of assumptions
   in OSS development. We identified 832 assumptions from the Hibernate
   developer mailing list. The findings are: (1) most of the assumptions
   are expressed as ``Feature Request{''} and ``Solution Proposal{''}; (2)
   more than half of the identified assumptions are design assumptions and
   are made for software design; (3) assumptions exist in the whole OSS
   development lifecycle; and (4) the major category of related artifacts
   of assumptions is ``Design Document{''}.},

Abstract = {We propose a gaming architecture, called the Overlay Server System
   (OSS), for supporting multiparty online games over mobile networks. In
   OSS architecture, overlay server nodes (OSN) are distributed across the
   core network architecture of the mobile operator and each node is
   responsible for both running the game applications and performing the
   overlay routing. The architecture allows third party game servers that
   are located outside the core network of the mobile operator to push the
   execution of delay and bandwidth constrained game components into the
   core to achieve better quality of service (QoS). When a game consists of
   multiple mutually exclusive game objects such that each object can be
   maintained independently, OSS allows per object QoS optimization via
   selecting the jointly optimal location (i.e. OSN) and overlay routes for
   each object. This fine-grain optimization benefits most when different
   objects have different QoS requirements and they are accessed by
   different users. OSS dynamically adapts to the changes in game and
   network conditions by switching to better OSN and overlay routes.
   Our performance analysis on different core network topologies and usage
   patterns demonstrates that OSS has significant advantages over the
   alternative peer to peer (P2P), proxy-server, and client-server
   architectures. The analysis also underlines the individual contributions
   of object placement and jointly performed overlay route optimization to
   the performance gain.},

Abstract = {This study aims to make improvements in manufacturing yields for dental

   By using computerized visual inspection and automatic controls, this
   study explores standardization and automation of inspection work for the
   three major defects affecting dental floss picks and dental floss
   fibers. Among the industrial design solutions implemented by this study
   are environmentally efficacious layout of light sources, optimal
   configuration of optical imaging and automated equipment, and the design
   and development of a proprietary defect detection program; moreover, an
   automatic optical inspection (AOI) system, which can be installed in the
   production lines, is built for verification. As for verification of
   detected defects, trial operations can be conducted on production lines
   and adjusted to optimal parameters in order to measure floss fiber
   defects with an area larger than 0.09mm(2), impurity defects with
   gray-scale difference greater than 35, and shortage defects with lengths
   greater than 3mm. Statistical analysis of practical measurement results
   on ten dental floss picks indicated system detection rates of 93.1\% for
   floss fiber defects, 56.2\% for impurity defects and 84.4\% for shortage
   defects.},

Abstract = {Copyright law, together with the market logic it carries, penetrates
   deeply into our daily life. The copyright regime is so restrictive that
   it turns a normal learning process into a series of potential copyright
   violations. The Free Software Movement (FSM) represents a substantial
   community effort to counter this trend. It seeks to supersede the
   copyright regime by offering the `Copyleft' licensing mode, which
   facilitates the formation of a cooperative, resource- sharing community.
   The FSM has been so successful that it has challenged the utilitarian
   values presumed in copyright law, has fuelled widespread reassessment of
   copyright law, and has influenced many who engage in various creative
   activities. Claiming to bear similar values, Creative Commons (CC)
   provides licensing models for people to waive some rights granted to
   them. However, CC differs from the FSM in significant ways. Most
   notably, the flexible CC licensing model weakens the firm philosophical
   and political ground which binds FSM advocates together. Hence, although
   CC's rapid growth seems to signal its success, it is questionable
   whether such success is as enduring as the FSM's, or if it is leading to
   a different result. While CC champions the author's freedom to decide
   how to use his or her bundle of property rights granted by copyright
   law, the FSM advocates the freedom to build and live in an alternative,
   vital and self- sustaining community. The existence of such an
   alternative model not only allows these particular participants to be
   independent from the proprietary world, but also may empower the rest of
   society to imagine different kinds of relationships between human beings
   and their creative activities.},

   around a plane-convex hydrofoil. Numerical simulations have been carried
   out by using the FOSS OpenFOAM based on the Zwart cavitation model and
   the implicit large eddy simulation (ILES). The results show that the

   the other hand, the hybrid mesh induces unreliable results at leading

Title = {Generating UAV high-resolution topographic data within a FOSS

Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF APPLIED EARTH OBSERVATION AND GEOINFORMATION},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {105},
Month = {DEC 25},
Abstract = {Photogrammetry is one of the most reliable techniques to generate
   high-resolution topographic data and it is key to territorial mapping
   and change detection analysis of landforms in hydro-geomorphological
   high-risk areas. Specifically, the Structure from Motion (SfM) is an
   emerging topographic survey technique that addresses the problem of
   determining the 3D position of image descriptors to estimate
   three-dimensional structures. Thanks to the potential of SfM algorithm
   and the development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) that allow the
   ondemand acquisition of high-resolution aerial images, it is possible to
   survey extended areas of the Earth surface and monitor active phenomena
   through multi-temporal surveys. However, the ability to detect remote
   and wide areas with a very high-resolution is countered by the need to
   capture large datasets which can limit the photogrammetric process, due
   to the need for high-performance hardware. This paper presents a
   photogrammetric workflow based on Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS),
   which is able to return different outputs and to manage a large amount
   of data in reasonable time, through the distribution of the most
   computationally expensive steps on computing clusters hosted by the
   ReCaS-Bari data center for scientific research. The results are given in
   terms of performance evaluations based on different computing
   configurations of the clusters and setups of the steps of the workflow.
   The HTC cluster test with a parallel SSH approach involved an important
   reduction of several hours in the processing time of thousands UAV
   images, especially compared to classic photogrammetric process on a
   single workstation with commercial software. A parallel test, aimed to
   validate the performance of a single sever of the new HPC cluster,
   involved really good results halving the processing time with respect to
   the HTC cluster test.},

Abstract = {This article is a reply to Foss et al.'s (2022) contribution to the
   special issue of the Scandinavian Journal of Management on The Great
   Reset of management and organization theory. In their article, the
   authors make a strong case that ``reset thinking{''} geared towards a
   more ``sustainable{''} redesign of the global economy promotes extensive
   state interventionism and cronyism capitalism, and therefore reject the
   idea of a need for ``a funda-mental rethink of existing management
   theory{''}. Whereas I do agree with the authors on most points, I am
   less convinced that ``existing management theory{''} will suffice to
   address the problem of ``reset thinking{''}. In this article, I
   demonstrate that the economy-bias of existing theories is a gateway for
   ``reset thinking{''} geared towards an allegedly necessary
   re-/socialisation of management and organisation. A research agenda on
   cronyism must therefore be complemented by one on privilege and
   hierarchy not only as undesirable side-effects of cronyism, but also as
   desired outcomes of advocacy for specific minorities or missions. As
   self-identifications with group interests or calls for missions have
   become popular in management theory, I conclude that this new appetite
   for privilege might undermine not only the higher ideals of many
   management theorists, but also the foundations of modern society.},

Abstract = {Education is the driving force in the development of society. Through
   professional and occupational competences, individuals are able to deal
   with the requirements of the phenomenon of globalization. Therefore,
   many countries have been involved in the creation of quality assurance
   of educational systems in order to design more flexible curricula, more
   open to knowledge society. They meet the vast training needs, provide a
   variety of educational strategies and drive academic mobility and
   collaborative inter or multidisciplinary projects. In this respect,
   educational institutions are called to promote methodologies focused on
   the study of curriculum to diagnose and base the formulation of
   improvement plans for quality assurance.
   This project formulated a methodology to examine and determine the level
   of curricular flexibility. It was based on a prototype of an information
   system developed with free software that supported management indicators
   and represented different manifestations of flexibility. On the other
   hand, the Viable System Model provided the theoretical foundation to
   specify the study and the organizational diagnosis and to identify the
   information needs among defined sub-systems, including environment.
   The prototype of the information system was designed so that academic
   programs within a higher education institution have the capacity to
   structure several studies of curriculum flexibility over time in order
   to establish the necessary comparatives and to be a knowledge-based
   supply for future curriculum reforms and a basis for quality assurance
   processes.

   immediate constraints. For a wide range of flight conditions and mission
   task elements, the test pilot feedback is the essential measure upon
   which the design choices are made. Thus, it is becoming of fundamental
   importance to be able to simulate a representative model of the vehicle
   in a pilot-in-the loop environment as early as possible in the design
   stage. This work is intended to document the development process of one
   such system currently being realized at the facilities belonging to the
   Aerospace Science and Technology Department of Politecnico di Milano.
   Particular attention is given to the software architecture, based on the
   free and open-source multibody solver MBDyn. The development of a module
   specifically designed to exploit the environment visualization
   capabilities of FlightGear, also a free and open-source software, is
   presented.},

Abstract = {Orthology, refining the concept of homology, is the cornerstone of
   evolutionary comparative studies. With the ever-increasing availability
   of genomic data, inference of orthology has become instrumental for
   generating hypotheses about gene functions crucial to many studies. This
   update of the OrthoDB hierarchical catalog of orthologs
   (http://www.orthodb.org) covers 3027 complete genomes, including the
   most comprehensive set of 87 arthropods, 61 vertebrates, 227 fungi and
   2627 bacteria (sampling the most complete and representative genomes
   from over 11,000 available). In addition to the most extensive
   integration of functional annotations from UniProt, InterPro, GO, OMIM,
   model organism phenotypes and COG functional categories, OrthoDB
   uniquely provides evolutionary annotations including rates of ortholog
   sequence divergence, copy-number profiles, sibling groups and gene
   architectures. We re-designed the entirety of the OrthoDB website from
   the underlying technology to the user interface, enabling the user to
   specify species of interest and to select the relevant orthology level
   by the NCBI taxonomy. The text searches allow use of complex logic with
   various identifiers of genes, proteins, domains, ontologies or
   annotation keywords and phrases. Gene copy-number profiles can also be
   queried. This release comes with the freely available underlying
   ortholog clustering pipeline (http://www.orthodb.org/).},

Journal = {PERIFERIA},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {16},
Abstract = {This work seeks to investigate the contributions of using Scratch to the
   Teaching of Portuguese Language in Elementary School, mainly with regard
   to promoting freedom of expression and sharing of knowledge. This is
   basic research, developed through bibliographical research, which was
   put into practice through a detailed survey based on the thoughts of
   Richard Stallman, creator of the concept of free software, in addition
   to contributions from Freire, Lib \& acirc;neo and Bagno who help to
   contextualize this discussion socially, politically and economically.
   The qualitative approach was also used as a basis, because it analyzes
   the relationships, opinions and discourses present in the main
   documentation involving this theme through the interpretation and
   critical examination of the texts consulted. As a result, it was evident
   that the use of free software can recover unused computers and restore
   them, providing the revitalization of the computer laboratory for the
   use of programs with educational and free purposes in teaching the
   Portuguese Language; it was noticed that the computer and the use of
   free software are still little adopted within literacy and/or Portuguese
   language teaching procedures; The Portuguese language, aided by the use
   of software, will be a tool that enhances some aspects that are required
   by community life today: autonomy, self-esteem, creativity, initiative,
   logical reasoning and productivity.},

Abstract = {The shift from sequential to concurrent engineering has led to changes
   in the way design projects are managed. In order to assist designers,
   many effective tools have been developed to support collaborative

   industrial scenarios encourage companies to adopt PLM solutions, even
   if, sometimes, they can't understand the benefits. On the other hand,
   many free solutions with comparable functionalities are developed, which
   have been increasingly successful.
   In this article, we test different associations of software to make a
   comparison between free software and market solutions. In this
   experiment, 24 students in a Master's Degree course aimed to design
   mechanical products by using software to assist collaborative
   distributed design, using two different configurations. This experiment
   allowed us to compare design functionalities between free and commercial

Title = {Dental floss use among elementary school children and environmental
   factors; a cross-sectional study},
Journal = {PEDIATRIC DENTAL JOURNAL},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {29},
Number = {2},
Pages = {78-83},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Background: The onset of carious lesions and periodontal disease
   originates in plaque formed from dental bacteria. Appropriate plaque
   control is therefore important. Dental floss is one instrument used to
   control plaque. The influence of guardians is an important factor in
   whether children use dental floss regularly. However, the use of dental
   floss among school-age children and the relationship between use and
   family background has yet to be examined.
   Aim: In this study, we conducted a questionnaire survey to examine rates
   of dental floss use and other related factors among elementary school
   children and their guardians.
   Methods: Surveys were sent to 298 guardians of children in grades 1-6 at
   an elementary school in Japan and 283 valid responses were received.
   Statistical analyses were carried out, with child's use of dental floss
   as a dependent variable and grade, sex, guardian assistance with child's
   tooth brushing, frequency of child's dental check-ups, and guardian's
   use of dental floss as independent variables.
   Results: The results revealed that 18.4\% of children used dental floss
   compared with 52.7\% of guardians, suggesting that the rate of usage
   among children is much lower than that among guardians. Logistic
   regression analysis further revealed that guardian's use of dental floss
   was significantly related to dental floss use among children.
   Conclusion: The guardian's use of dental floss was associated with
   dental floss use among their children in this group of Japanese
   elementary school. (C) 2019 Japanese Society of Pediatric Dentistry.

Title = {Sherlock in OSS: A Novel Approach of Content-Based Searching in Object
   Storage System},
Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {12},
Pages = {69456-69474},
Abstract = {Cloud-based Object Storage Systems (OSS) are known for their
   scalability, durability, availability, and concurrency. However, there
   is a noticable vaccum in open-source OSS for a straightforward way for
   users and administrators to conduct data searches within object storage
   without fully utilizing the cloud infrastructure. In our research, we
   present Sherlock, a novel Content-Based Searching (CoBS) framework.
   Sherlock enhances search capabilities by using extra information from
   images and documents, incorporating this information into an
   Elasticsearch-powered database to enable content-driven searches. The
   framework operates through a two-stage process. First, it classifies the
   incoming data by type, directing images to an object detection model and
   processing documents for keyword extraction. Then, Elasticsearch
   catalogs the extracted data, facilitating searches based on content. The
   effectiveness of our searches is largely dependent on the precision of
   these models, which we improve by training them on large-scale datasets:
   the Microsoft COCO Dataset for multimedia content and the SemEval2017
   Dataset for text documents. We further test our system's performance by
   integrating it with the open-source OSS, OpenStack Swift, and conducting
   real-world experiments with image uploads to evaluate how our model
   performs within Swift's object storage environments.},

Abstract = {Telecommunications companies undergo massive transformations which
   reflect onto exacting requirements for controlling the costs of new
   Operation Support Systems (OSS) development and integration. This calls
   for the adoption of new approaches, which improve agility and
   reusability. Model Drive Development (MDD), as specified by OMG, can
   drastically tackle these issues and has, therefore, attracted the
   interest of the telecommunications industry. Equally important is the
   Open Source paradigm. For MDD to gain wide industrial adoption, tools
   should be available to facilitate the OSS development process. In this
   paper, we specify requirements MDD tools should meet for effective
   application of the approach. An extensive survey is then carried out to
   evaluate existing meta-modelling frameworks over the identified tools
   requirements. Eventually, we present the Integrated Eclipse Model driven
   Environment (IEME), which comprises a unified environment of bundled
   Eclipse-based MDD facilities that also supports the automatic generation

   photoionization mass spectrometry},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF ANALYTICAL AND APPLIED PYROLYSIS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {177},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {The pyrolysis behaviors of moxa floss with 5-9 storage years were
   investigated by thermogravimetry (TG) and online synchrotron radiation
   photoionization mass spectrometry. The online fragment-free mass spectra
   of moxa floss pyrolysis products were obtained within 300-800degree
   celsius and characterized as hydrocarbons, nitrogenous and oxygenated
   compounds. The results indicate that pyrolysis temperature plays a
   leading role in the lowmolecular-weight product distribution, while the
   storage year has secondary effects. Controlling the pyrolysis
   temperature in a lower range (<650degree celsius) can effectively reduce
   the generation of benzene, toluene and other harmful substances.
   Aromatics could be released from the break of large molecules with
   aromatic structures and formed from the aromatization of small
   unstructured compounds at high temperatures. At the temperature lower
   than 400 degree celsius, short-year samples exhibit a higher intensity
   of oxygenated compounds. However, with the increase of storage years,
   nitrogenous heterocyclics such as pyrrole and pyridine are preferably
   formed at higher temperatures. In addition, increasing the storage year
   of moxa floss leads the TG curve to exhibit a lower maximum mass loss
   rate. These results will enrich the understanding of the storage year
   effect on the beneficial oxygencontaining components generation and the
   release of harmful components in the moxa floss pyrolysis.},

Title = {Heteroatom-doped porous carbons derived from moxa floss of different
   storage years for supercapacitors},
Journal = {RSC ADVANCES},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {8},
Number = {30},
Pages = {16433-16443},
Abstract = {Two novel carbons (MCs) derived from moxa floss of different storage
   years have been prepared by two low-cost and facile approaches, which
   are hydrothermal carbonization at a low temperature (200 degrees C) and
   direct pyrolysis at a moderate temperature (500 degrees C) followed by
   potassium hydroxide (KOH) activation strategy at a high temperature (800
   degrees C), respectively. The physicochemical properties of MCs are
   investigated by Raman spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray
   photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), field-emission scanning electron
   microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and nitrogen
   adsorption-desorption isotherms. Results show that MCs derived from moxa
   floss of different storage years by two facile approaches possess
   different morphologies: MCs by hydrothermal carbonization (denoted as
   MC-1, MC-2 and MC-3) exhibit porous nanosheet structures, the highest
   specific surface area is about 1788.6 m(2) g(-1), and the largest total
   pore volumes is around 0.8170 cm(3) g(-1), while MCs by direct pyrolysis
   (denoted as MC-4, MC-5 and MC-6) have basically blocky and rod-like
   morphologies, the highest specific surface area is about 1628.0 m(2)
   g(-1), and the largest total pore volume is around 0.7058 cm(3) g(-1).
   However, despite the different morphologies, all MCs possess a similar
   hierarchical porous structure, numerous heteroatom groups and good
   electrical conductivity. Therefore, these low-cost, biomass-derived
   porous carbons with promising capacitive performance are used for
   supercapacitors application with high performance, for example, the
   as-assembled supercapacitor based on MC-5 exhibits a high specific
   capacitance of 288.3 F g(-1) at 0.25 A g(-1), an excellent rate
   performance of 243.5 F g(-1) even at 30 A g(-1) with 84.5\% capacitance
   retention of its initial specific capacitance, and an outstanding
   long-term cycling stability with 98.7\% capacitance retention after 10
   000 cycles at 5 A g(-1). Furthermore, the maximum energy density for
   these supercapacitors with an aqueous electrolyte in a two-electrode
   system is about 10.0 W h kg(-1) at a power density of 70.3 W kg(-1).
   Therefore, this work opens up a whole new field for the applications of
   moxa floss and this novel concept of moxa floss use is an extremely
   promising strategy for developing high-performance carbons with porous
   structures and heteroatom-doping from renewable sources.},

Abstract = {Nowadays, communication technologies and the range of mobile operator
   services are changing extremely fast. This results in the need for
   constant adaptation and expansion of OSS/BSS1 used in mobile operator
   networks. Currently, adaptation and expansion strategies are poorly
   formalized and validated. In current state-of-the-art approaches,
   several iterations involving analysts and system architects are
   necessary, resulting in time and money consuming service development.
   The workflow design method proposed in this paper fills this gap. It
   employs a well-defined workflow and analysis model for developing and
   adapting OSS/BSS. The applicability of this novel approach is confirmed
   by a prototypically implemented design software tool which has been
   tested in a telecommunication enterprise. The developed tool provides
   automation of service planning, computational independent workflow
   design and its transformation into its realization model. The reduction
   of development time and thus necessary financial input has been proven
   based on our real-world experiments.},

Abstract = {Initialized by a collective contribution of volunteer developers, Open
   source software (OSS) attracts an increasing involvement of commercial
   firms. Many OSS projects are composed of a mix group of firm-paid and
   volunteer developers, with different motivations, collaboration
   practices and working styles. As OSS development consists of
   collaborative works in nature, it is important to know whether these
   differences have an impact on collaboration between difference types of
   stakeholders, which lead to an influence in the project outcomes. In
   this paper, we empirically investigate the firm-paid participation in
   resolving OSS evolution issues, the stakeholder collaboration and its
   impact on OSS issue resolution time. The results suggest that though a
   firm-paid assigned developer resolves much more issues than a volunteer
   developer does, there is no difference in issue resolution time between
   them. Besides, the more important factor that influences the issue
   resolution time comes from the collaboration among stakeholders rather
   than from individual characteristics.},

Title = {SIRT6-specific inhibitor OSS-128167 exacerbates diabetic cardiomyopathy
   by aggravating inflammation and oxidative stress},
Journal = {MOLECULAR MEDICINE REPORTS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {23},
Number = {5},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a serious complication of diabetes,
   which importantly contributes to the increased mortality of patients
   with diabetes. The development of DCM is accompanied by numerous
   pathological mechanisms, including oxidative stress and chronic
   inflammation. Accordingly, the present study aimed to determine the
   effects of the sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) inhibitor OSS-128167 on DCM using a
   mouse model of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes and high glucose
   (HG)-treated cardiomyocytes. C57BL/6 mice were intraperitoneally
   injected with STZ for 5 days to simulate the diabetic cardiomyopathy
   model. Mice with STZ-induced diabetes (STZ-DM1) were orally administered
   OSS-128167 (20 or 50 mg/kg) through gavage every other day. The
   expression of SIRT6 in myocardial tissue was detected using western
   blotting. Tissue staining (hematoxylin and eosin and Masson's trichrome)
   was used to characterize myocardial structure, TUNEL fluorescent
   staining was used to detect myocardial apoptosis, and
   immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of
   inflammatory factors in myocardial tissue. Dihydroethidium staining and
   a malondialdehyde (MDA) detection kit were used to detect the oxidative
   stress levels in myocardial tissues. In vitro, H9c2 cells were
   pre-incubated with OSS-128167 for 1 h and then stimulated with HG (33
   mM) for various durations. Expression levels of fibrosis markers,
   collagen-1 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta, apoptosis-related
   proteins, Bax, Bcl-2 and cleaved-poly ADP-ribose polymerase, tumor
   necrosis factor-alpha and the oxidative stress metabolite,
   3-nitrotyrosine were analyzed using western blotting and reverse
   transcription-quantitative PCR. Commercially available kits were used to
   detect the activity of caspase-3 and the content of MDA in the H9c2 cell
   line. The corresponding results demonstrated that OSS-128167 aggravated
   diabetes-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis and fibrosis in mice.
   Mechanistically, OSS-128167 was revealed to increase the levels of
   inflammatory factors and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in vitro and in
   vivo. In conclusion, OSS-128167 facilitated the inflammatory response
   and promoted the production of ROS while aggravating DCM development.
   These findings indicated that SIRT6 may target two closely combined and
   interacting pathological processes, the inflammatory response and
   oxidative stress, and may serve as a potentially advantageous
   therapeutic target.},

Title = {Identifying refactoring opportunities for large packages by analyzing
   maintainability characteristics in Java OSS},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {202},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {The source code of a Java-based software system is often structured into
   packages. When packages are large, they often carry maintainability
   quality issues. In the literature, there is a lack of empirical evidence
   on the specific maintainability issues that occur when packages become
   too large. Our study fills this gap by performing relationship analysis
   of package size with respect to internal maintainability characteristics
   (coupling, cohesion, and complexity) using package-level metrics
   collected from 111 open-source Java projects provided in Qualitas
   Corpus. Our results show significantly higher main-tainability issues in
   large packages as indicated by the maintainability metrics. We also
   report strong relationships of package size with cohesion (represented
   by the number of connected components in a package) and complexity
   (measured by the number of internal relationships in a package). Based
   on these strong associations with package size, we show that these
   cohesion and complexity metrics can be used to identify large package
   refactoring opportunities. Furthermore, we also discuss why some
   maintainability metrics (e.g., coupling metrics) may not be useful for
   refactoring large packages.Editor's note: Open Science material was

   applied the approach on the largest code hosting service, GitHub. By
   investigating the resumes generated from the extracted dataset,
   recruiters of software projects can be given a clearer view on whether
   the developers' experiences fulfill the qualifications. Moreover, based
   on the approach, we present a web-based visualization tool, named as
   Open Source Resume (OSR). We believe our tool is useful to help
   recruiters from software development organizations to search for
   suitable developers, and then construct development teams in software
   projects based on their OSS contributions.},

Title = {On the prediction of long-lived bugs: An analysis and comparative study
   using FLOSS projects},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {132},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Context: Software evolution and maintenance activities in today's
   Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) rely primarily on information
   extracted from bug reports registered in bug tracking systems. Many
   studies point out that most bugs that adversely affect the user's
   experience across versions of FLOSS projects are longlived bugs.
   However, proposed approaches that support bug fixing procedures do not
   consider the real-world lifecycle of a bug, in which bugs are often
   fixed very fast. This may lead to useless efforts to automate the bug
   management process.
   Objective: This study aims to confirm whether the number of long-lived
   bugs is significantly high in popular open-source projects and to
   characterize the population of long-lived bugs by considering the
   attributes of bug reports. We also aim to conduct a comparative study
   evaluating the prediction accuracy of five well-known machine learning
   algorithms and text mining techniques in the task of predicting
   long-lived bugs.
   Methods: We collected bug reports from six popular open-source projects
   repositories (Eclipse, Freedesktop, Gnome, GCC, Mozilla, and WineHQ) and
   used the following machine learning algorithms to predict long-lived
   bugs: K-Nearest Neighbor, Naive Bayes, Neural Networks, Random Forest,
   and Support Vector Machines. Results: Our results show that long-lived
   bugs are relatively frequent (varying from 7.2\% to 40.7\%) and have
   unique characteristics, confirming the need to study solutions to
   support bug fixing management. We found that the Neural Network
   classifier yielded the best results in comparison to the other
   algorithms evaluated. Conclusion: Research efforts regarding long-lived
   bugs are needed and our results demonstrate that it is possible to
   predict long-lived bugs with a high accuracy (around 70.7\%) despite the
   use of simple prediction algorithms and text mining methods.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF COMPOSITES SCIENCE},
Year = {2024},

Abstract = {This study investigated the influence of fiber content, temperature, and
   relative humidity on the thermal insulation properties of nonwoven mats
   made of seed fibers from Asclepias Syriaca, commonly known as milkweed
   floss. Nonwoven mats with a 1-inch thickness were produced by uniformly
   arranging milkweed fibers within a mold. Various quantities of fiber
   were employed to obtain nonwoven mats with a fiber content ranging from
   5 to 35 kg/m3. Thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity were
   measured across diverse relative humidity levels and temperatures.
   Simultaneously, milkweed floss samples were exposed to identical
   environmental conditions to assess the moisture regain and specific heat
   capacities of the fiber. The specific heat capacity of milkweed and
   thermal conductivity of the nonwovens exhibited a linear increase with
   temperature. The thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity of the
   nonwovens decreased with rising fiber content. The thermal insulation
   properties of the nonwovens remained partially stable below 30\%
   relative humidity but substantially deteriorated at higher levels. The
   nonwovens exhibited optimal thermal insulation properties at a fiber
   content between 20 and 25 kg/m3. The results of this study highlighted
   several technical advantages of employing milkweed floss as a
   sustainable and lightweight solution for thermal insulation.},

Abstract = {As open-source software (OSS) development is becoming a trend, an
   increasing number of businesses and developers are joining OSS projects.
   For project managers, developers and users, understanding the current
   health status of a project is very important to manage a development
   process, select the open-source projects to development or to adopt the
   software packages developed by projects. Therefore, an efficient
   approach to evaluate the health status of the open-source project is
   needed. Unfortunately, although many approaches including metrics have
   been proposed, they are designed in arbitrary ways. In this paper, a
   math ematical tool, i.e., factor analysis, is used to build a health
   evaluation model for OSS projects. As far as we know, this is the first
   time that factor analysis has been applied to evaluate OSS projects.
   This model is based on GitHub data and uses the basic indexes that are
   closely related to the health status of the projects as the input. Then,
   six new synthetic metrics, namely community activity, project
   popularity, development activity, completeness, responsiveness and
   persistence are obtained through factor analysis, which can be used to
   calculate the overall health score of a project. Moreover, in order to
   verify the effectiveness of this model, it is applied to some real
   projects and the results show that the overall scores achieved by this
   model can reflect the health status of the projects.},

Abstract = {The insoluble and soluble dietary fiber were enzymatically extracted
   from the by-product of Vigna radiata L. and their structures were
   characterized by scan electronic microscope, Fourier transform infrared

   chemical structural features endow the dietary fiber good absorbing
   capacity and antioxidant acitivity. Afterwards, a popular snack, fish
   floss, was fortified with the proposed dietary fiber. The recently
   developed rapid evaporative ionization mass spectrometry was
   successfully applied to study the effect of dietary fiber on fish floss
   digestion in the term of phospholipid. The results showed that the
   hydrolysis rate of phospholipids increased as the degree of unsaturation
   of the fatty acyl chain increased, while the addition of soluble dietary
   fiber (SDF) and insoluble dietary fiber (IDF) effectively slowed down
   the digestion rate of phospholipids. This study can guide for
   comprehensive utilization of byproduct of Vigna radiata L. and designing
   novel weight control diets.},

   between BLOSOM and GNOME Oil Spill Models},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF MARINE SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING},
Year = {2018},

Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {The Department of Energy's (DOE's) National Energy Technology
   Laboratory's (NETL's) Blowout and Spill Occurrence Model (BLOSOM), and
   the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA's) General
   NOAA Operational Modeling Environment (GNOME) are compared. Increasingly
   complex simulations are used to assess similarities and differences
   between the two models' components. The simulations presented here are
   forced by ocean currents from a Finite Volume Community Ocean Model
   (FVCOM) implementation that has excellent skill in representing tidal
   motion, and with observed wind data that compensates for a coarse
   vertical ocean model resolution. The comprehensive comparison between
   GNOME and BLOSOM presented here, should aid modelers in interpreting
   their results. Beyond many similarities, aspects where both models are
   distinct are highlighted. Some suggestions for improvement are included,
   e.g., the inclusion of temporal interpolation of the forcing fields
   (BLOSOM) or the inclusion of a deflection angle option when
   parameterizing wind-driven processes (GNOME). Overall, GNOME and BLOSOM
   perform similarly, and are found to be complementary oil spill models.
   This paper also sheds light on what drove the historical Point Wells
   spill, and serves the additional purpose of being a learning resource
   for those interested in oil spill modeling. The increasingly complex
   approach used for the comparison is also used, in parallel, to
   illustrate the approach an oil spill modeler would typically follow when
   trying to hindcast or forecast an oil spill, including detailed
   technical information on basic aspects, like choosing a computational
   time step. We discuss our successful hindcast of the 2003 Point Wells
   oil spill that, to our knowledge, had remained unexplained. The oil
   spill models' solutions are compared to the historical Point Wells' oil
   trajectory, in time and space, as determined from overflight
   information. Our hindcast broadly replicates the correct locations at
   the correct times, using accurate tide and wind forcing. While the
   choice of wind coefficient we use is unconventional, a simplified
   analytic model supported by observations, suggests that it is justified
   under this study's circumstances. We highlight some of the key
   oceanographic findings as they may relate to other oil spills, and to
   the regional oceanography of the Salish Sea, including recommendations
   for future studies.},

Abstract = {Floss-like Ni-Co binary hydroxides (FL-NCOH), assembled by whisker-like
   nanowires, are synthesized via a facile hydrothermal process with sodium

Abstract = {The central preoccupation of George Eliot's life was with religion. In
   her novels she searched for a view of life that would give modern man a
   sense of purpose, dignity and ethical direction. On reading Eliot's
   novels with the knowledge of her intellectual development, one must ask
   how this earnest agnostic could treat traditional religion so
   sympathetically, why she made the religious experience the subject of
   her creative work, and what moral truth she found religion to embody. It
   was the philosophy of the German anthropologist Ludwig Feuerbach, whose
   book The Essence of Christianity she translated in 1854, in combination
   with her own earlier experiences as a Christian, which led Eliot to her
   understanding of the subjective reality embodied in Christianity. `With
   the ideas of Feuerbach,' Eliot wrote, `I everywhere agree' (Haight,
   1954-55, p.153). My paper attempts to show how the influence of
   Feuerbach achieves complexity and vitality in Eliot's novel The Mill on
   the Floss and how Eliot establishes her faith in firm and lasting
   relations, which could be attained through the adjustment of the
   individual to the community. This adjustment comes as a corollary to the
   protagonist's realization of the principles that promote love, respect,
   tolerance and sacrifice for others.},

Abstract = {Realizing the innovation potential of OSS communities, firms now create
   or sponsor their own open source software (OSS) communities, generally
   as part of an open innovation strategy. However, maximizing the
   innovation capability of a sponsored OSS community is a challenging task
   since firms cannot rely on traditional hierarchical authority to control
   community members. Furthermore, a firm's efforts to manage its sponsored
   community may also impact the firm's absorptive capacity, or its ability
   to effectively absorb and leverage the valuable knowledge created by the
   community. Thus, the purpose of this article is to investigate two
   research questions: 1) How does the boundary management of a
   firm-sponsored OSS community impact the community's innovation capacity?
   and 2) How does the boundary management of a firm-sponsored OSS
   community impact the firm's absorptive capacity? Using the results from
   our qualitative analysis of eZ Systems and its successfully sponsored
   OSS community - eZ Publish we develop a theoretical model depicting how
   the boundary management of a firm-sponsored OSS community influences
   both the community's innovation capacity and the absorptive capacity of
   the firm. In addition, the results of our study highlight the central
   importance of an integrative IT platform in boundary management
   activities. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

   the possibility to take things apart, modify, adjust, and improve, is an
   ever more important aspect that software artists and electronic
   musicians seek to include in their production environment. GNU/Linux and
   Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) possess this feature, and many
   more, providing artists with a truly creative and open environment, free
   of unnecessary technical limitations, predetermined interaction, lack of
   control over the work environment and dependence on software companies.},

   edits by multiple organizations intuitively using overlapping figures.
   The other is Origin City, which was inspired by Code City. It can
   represent the scale and other measurements, while simultaneously
   stacking functional layers as 3D buildings.},

Abstract = {The University of the Basque Country (http://www. ehu. es) is the most
   important University in the Autonomous Region of the Basque Country,
   Spain. There is one degree in Renewable Energy Engineering given at the
   Gipuzkoa Faculty of Engineering (Eibar). In the last year of their
   studies, students, can select one subject on Ocean Energy.
   In this subject, state-of-the-art operation and management techniques
   are taught to the students. Apart from the transmission of this
   knowlegde, the focus is practical and is based on hands-on computer
   real-life exercises, which involves not only intensive programming using
   a high-level software, but also the spatial representation of results.
   This is important because currently two major research and development
   lines can be identified as far as ocean energy is concerned. The first
   one is the analysis of prototypes that in the future will extensively
   extract electricity from wave farms.
   The second one is related to the resource itself, which implies the
   analysis and characterization of some ocean variables related to the
   extraction of energy. In many cases, the raw information on some oceanic
   variables of interest is available from institutions like the ECMWF
   http://www.ecmwf.int However a very extensive phase of data
   preprocessing is needed to extract useful information on wave energy
   potential. This will be an important task for future engineers involved
   in the spatial planning of oceanic energy facilities and in real-time
   forecasting and control of electricity obtained at wave farms. For this
   reason, students need to effectively learn to do all these tasks.
   R (https://www.cran.r-project.org/) is a freely available software that
   provides an optimum answer to these combined needs and teaching
   challenges due to its modular structure. R has a core module and nearly
   8000 packages specifically developed for different purposes are also
   available. Packages like ``RNetCDF{''}, ``sp{''} ``rgeos{''},
   ``rgdal{''}, ``maps{''}, ``maptools{''} and ``mapdata{''} have been
   developed to make R work with full functionalities just like any
   high-level programming software.
   Incorporating R into the teaching activities of the subject ``Ocean
   Energy{''} has represented an important step forward in the education of
   future engineers while providing them with real-life tools for their
   future jobs in wave farms.},

Abstract = {The scientific application of 3D imaging has evolved significantly over
   recent years. These techniques make it possible to study internal
   features by non-destructive analysis. Despite its potential, the
   development of 3D imaging in the Geosciences is behind other fields due
   to the high cost of commercial software and the scarce free
   alternatives. Most free software was designed for the Health Sciences,
   and the pre-settled workflows are not suited to geoscientific materials.
   Thus, an outstanding challenge in the Geosciences is to define workflows
   using free alternatives for Computed Tomography (CT) data processing,
   promoting data sharing, reproducibility, and the development of specific
   extensions. We present CroSSED, a processing sequence for 3D
   reconstructions of CT data, using 3DSlicer, a popular application in
   medical imaging. Its usefulness is exemplified in the study of burrows
   that have low-density contrast with respect to the host sediment. For
   geoscientists who have access to CT data and wish to reconstruct 3D
   structures, this method offers a wide range of possibilities and
   contributes to open-science and applied CT studies.},

   parameters could be appropriate in order to obtain a high resolution of
   images. After the images were analyzed by a specific free software image
   (Image J), this was done by reconstructing images taken on each depth
   scan in three different area of the samples, at the high, middle and low
   area. The results showed density distribution in all samples areas
   analyzed, even at different depth. the statistical investigation of
   results confirmed the anisotropy of the species wood analyzed, in
   addition the density distribution were strongly correlated in the three
   areas anlyzed with slight difference, and the evolution of density were

Abstract = {Electronic documents are being more and more usable thanks to better and
   more affordable network, storage and computational facilities. But in
   order to benefit from computer-aided document management, paper
   documents must be digitized and analyzed. This task may be challenging
   at several levels. Data may be of multiple types thus requiring
   different adapted processing chains. The tools to be developed should
   also take into account the needs and knowledge of users, ranging from a
   simple graphical application to a complete programming framework.
   Finally, the data sets to process may be large. In this paper, we expose
   a set of features that a Document Image Analysis framework should
   provide to handle the previous issues. In particular, a good strategy to
   address both flexibility and efficiency issues is the Generic
   Programming (GP) paradigm. These ideas are implemented as an open source
   module, SCRIBO, built on top of Olena, a generic and efficient image
   processing platform. Our solution features services such as
   preprocessing filters, text detection, page segmentation and document
   reconstruction (as XML, PDF or HTML documents). This framework, composed
   of reusable software components, can be used to create full-fledged
   graphical applications, small utilities, or processing chains to be
   integrated into third-party projects.},

Abstract = {In the last decades, Tics have acquired a special importance in the
   educational field, being considered as one of the transversal axes in
   the educational process, contributing directly to the involvement of
   students in the learning process through virtual environments. The aim
   of the present research is to determine the optimal characteristics of a
   virtual free online learning environment in Kichwa. From the applied
   point of view, a virtual space is implemented under the ADDIE model for
   the free office teaching in Kichwa. For the statistical analysis a
   survey is applied, taking as a sample a total of 133 people, of which 25
   correspond to teachers and 108 to students from the Millennium School of
   Kisapincha Pueblo Tungurahua in Ecuador. From a temporary point of view,
   the year 2015 is taken as a reference. The results suggest that
   multimedia content generates greater interest in students in the free
   office learning process in Kichwa. The main conclusions reveal that the
   characteristics of usability, content quality and multimedia material
   are more relevant in the development of virtual learning spaces.},

Title = {QuBiLS-MIDAS: A Parallel Free-Software for Molecular Descriptors
   Computation Based on Multilinear Algebraic Maps},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {35},

Month = {JUL 5},
Abstract = {The present report introduces the QuBiLS-MIDAS software belonging to the
   ToMoCoMD-CARDD suite for the calculation of three-dimensional molecular
   descriptors (MDs) based on the two-linear (bilinear), three-linear, and
   four-linear (multilinear or N-linear) algebraic forms. Thus, it is
   unique software that computes these tensor-based indices. These
   descriptors, establish relations for two, three, and four atoms by using
   several (dis) similarity metrics or multimetrics, matrix
   transformations, cutoffs, local calculations and aggregation operators.
   The theoretical background of these N-linear indices is also presented.
   The QuBiLS-MIDAS software was developed in the Java programming language
   and employs the Chemical Development Kit library for the manipulation of
   the chemical structures and the calculation of the atomic properties.
   This software is composed by a desktop user-friendly interface and an
   Abstract Programming Interface library. The former was created to
   simplify the configuration of the different options of the MDs, whereas
   the library was designed to allow its easy integration to other software
   for chemoinformatics applications. This program provides functionalities
   for data cleaning tasks and for batch processing of the molecular
   indices. In addition, it offers parallel calculation of the MDs through
   the use of all available processors in current computers. The studies of
   complexity of the main algorithms demonstrate that these were
   efficiently implemented with respect to their trivial implementation.
   Lastly, the performance tests reveal that this software has a suitable
   behavior when the amount of processors is increased. Therefore, the
   QuBiLS-MIDAS software constitutes a useful application for the
   computation of the molecular indices based on N-linear algebraic maps
   and it can be used freely to perform chemoinformatics studies. (C) 2014

Abstract = {With the continued evolution of technology in support of the Overseas
   Contingency Operations (OCO), the need for effective Situational
   Awareness (SA) and efficient Command \& Control (C2) becomes
   increasingly important for successful mission planning, management, and
   execution. The Digital Video Broadcast Return Channel Satellite
   (DVB-RCS) NetOps vision for remote management and monitoring aims to
   provide visibility and Situational Awareness to required communities of
   interest as well as the ability to view and configure all the
   operational layers DVB-RCS, including the devices and technology,
   operations and management, and missions and objectives.
   An effective management and monitoring solution for DVB-RCS must provide
   the capability to centrally manage and monitor the system, interoperate
   between SATCOM and terrestrial networks, consolidate technology,
   standardize processes, and be proactive rather than reactive. The DISN
   OSS is DISA's enterprise-wide Service Oriented Architecture for
   information sharing, management, and monitoring capabilities, based on
   the Telecommunications Management Network industry standards. The DISN
   OSS puts the information into the hands of the operators and system
   managers while making the processes, tools, and technology transparent
   to the consumer.
   This paper examines how DVB-RCS implemented the NetOps Portal as an
   immediate and interim solution to provide Situational Awareness to
   CENTCOM, as well as how leveraging the DISN OSS can help DVB-RCS achieve
   assured system and network availability, assured information protection,
   and assured information delivery in support of high-bandwidth, two-way
   services for the tactical Warfighter.},

Abstract = {December 7th was made in 1942 by John Ford's Field Photographic Branch
   of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) at the request of the
   Secretary of War and the Secretary of the Navy. It was ultimately
   rejected for exhibition to the general public on the advice of the
   Office of War Information. Ford and director Gregg Toland eventually
   prepared an abbreviated version which was allowed only a limited
   release. This article considers the rejection of December 7th in the
   context of Field Photo's development as a unit, and in relation to
   Ford's most famous World War II documentary, The Battle of Midway. It
   seeks to explain how Ford was able to secure government approval and a
   general theatrical release for The Battle of Midway in the latter part
   of 1942 and how the policies and protocols of the government and
   military agencies that regulated wartime propaganda had altered by the
   time that December 7th came under review in the first half of 1943.},

Abstract = {Modern software engineering practice and training increasingly rely on
   Open Source Software (OSS). The recent growth in demand for professional
   software engineers has led to increased contributions to, and usage of,
   OSS. However, there is limited understanding of the factors affecting
   how developers, and how new or student developers in particular, decide
   which OSS projects to contribute to, a process critical to OSS
   sustainability, access, adoption, and growth. To better understand OSS
   contributions from the developers of tomorrow, we conducted a four-year
   study with 1,361 students investigating the life cycle of their
   contributions (from project selection to pull request acceptance).
   During the study, we also delivered a lightweight intervention to
   promote the awareness of open source projects for social good (OSS4SG),
   OSS projects that have positive impacts in other domains. Using both
   quantitative and qualitative methods, we analyze student experience
   reports and the pull requests they submit. Compared to general OSS
   projects, we find significant differences in project selection (p <
   0.0001, effect size = 0.84), student motivation (p < 0.01, effect size =
   0.13), and increased pull-request acceptance rates for OSS4SG
   contributions. We also find that our intervention correlates with
   increased student contributions to OSS4SG (p < 0.0001, effect size =
   0.38). Finally, we analyze correlations of factors such as gender or
   working with a partner. Our findings may help improve the experience for
   new developers participating in OSS4SG and the quality of their
   contributions. We also hope our work helps educators, project leaders,
   and contributors to build a mutually-beneficial framework for the future
   growth of OSS4SG.},

Abstract = {Attracting and retaining newcomers are critical aspects for OSS
   projects, as such projects rely on newcomers' sustainable contributions.
   Considerable effort has been made to help newcomers by identifying and
   overcoming the barriers during the onboarding process. However, most
   newcomers eventually fail and drop out of their projects even after
   successful onboarding. Meanwhile, it has been long known that
   individuals' early career stages profoundly impact their long-term
   career success. However, newcomers' early careers are less investigated
   in SE research. In this paper, we sought to develop an empirical
   understanding of the relationships between newcomers' dynamic
   contribution patterns in their early careers and their technical
   success. To achieve this goal, we compiled a dataset of newcomers'
   contribution data from 54 large OSS projects under three different
   ecosystems and analyzed it with time series analysis and other
   statistical analysis techniques. Our analyses yield rich findings. The
   correlations between several contribution patterns and technical success
   were identified. In general, being consistent and persistent in
   newcomers' early careers is positively associated with their technical
   success. While these correlations generally hold in all three
   ecosystems, we observed some differences in detailed contribution
   patterns correlated with technical success across ecosystems. In
   addition, we performed a case study to investigate whether another type
   of contributions, i.e., documentation contribution, could potentially
   have positive correlations with newcomers' technical success. We
   discussed the implications and summarized practical recommendations to
   OSS newcomers. The insights gained from this work demonstrated the
   necessity of extending the focus of research and practice to newcomers'
   early careers and hence shed light on future research in this direction.},

Abstract = {Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) is a benign biodegradable polymer based on
   renewable resource. Cotton candy floss is a longstanding popular
   technique to prepare cotton like fibres in food applications. This study
   investigated the potential feasibility of using candy floss spinning
   (CFS) technique to generate new PLA-clay bionanocomposites with
   exfoliated morphology. The dispersion of nanoclay in PLA-clay
   bionanocomposites prepared by internal mixing, with and without candy
   floss spinning, as a masterbatch (having 20\%wt nanoclay) and then
   diluted in twin screw extruder to different percentage of nanoclay
   loadings (1\%, 2\% and 4\%, w/w), were compared in terms of their
   structures and properties. They were subjected to several tests: tensile
   and flexural tests, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC),
   simultaneous thermal analysis (STA), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA),
   gel permeation chromatography (GPC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) study,
   scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy
   (TEM). Overall, mechanical, and thermal properties of the
   bionanocomposites were improved in comparison to the neat PLA.
   Furthermore, XRD study exposed that bionanocomposites pre -pared by the
   CFS technique showed the disappearance of d001 basal peak, confirming
   generation of exfoliated microstructures, whereas the samples prepared
   solely by the internal mixing technique showed intercalated structure.
   Additionally, PLA-clay bionanocomposites prepared by the candy floss
   spinning technique exhibited prominent enhancement of mechanical as well
   as thermal properties compared to the ones prepared solely by internal
   mixing. These bionanocomposites possess great potential to find
   application as food packaging material.},

   that successful FLOSS teams demonstrate a truly global distribution of

Abstract = {Active satellite remote sensors have emerged in the last years in the
   field of archaeology, providing new tools for monitoring extensive
   cultural heritage landscapes and areas. These active sensors, namely
   synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellites, provide systematic datasets
   for mapping land movements triggered from earthquakes, landslides, and
   so on. Copernicus, the European program for monitoring the environment,
   provides continuous radar datasets through the Sentinel-1 mission with
   an almost worldwide coverage. This paper aims to demonstrate how the use
   of open-access and freely distributed datasets such as those under the
   Copernicus umbrella, along with the exploitation of open-source radar
   processing software, namely the sentinel applications platform (SNAP)
   and SNAPHU tools, provided respectively by the European Space Agency
   (ESA) and the University of Stanford, can be used to extract an SAR
   interferogram in the wider area of Paphos, located in the western part
   of Cyprus. The city includes various heritage sites and monuments, some
   of them already included in the UNESCO World Heritage list. The
   interferogram was prepared to study the effects of an earthquake to the
   buildings and sites of the area. The earthquake of a 5.6 magnitude on
   the Richter scale was triggered on 15 April 2015 and was strongly felt
   throughout the whole island. The interferogram results were based on
   Differential Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry (D-InSAR)
   methodology, finding a maximum uplift of 74 mm and a maximum subsidence
   of 31 mm. The overall process and methodology are presented in this

Abstract = {A vertical software market is usually subject to the process of
   disintegration resulting in a market where different layers of software
   are provided by independent software vendors. However, as argued in this
   paper, the process of this vertical disintegration may be affected by
   high investments to software interface implementation and maintenance.
   Should the required efforts be large, the threshold for entering the
   market increases, thereby hampering the vertical disintegration process.
   This study examines the impact of the interface implementation efforts
   on the vertical market evolution in the case of the so-called operations
   support systems and business support systems (OSS/BSS) software, which
   are employed by the telecom operators in order to support their daily
   operations. The efforts are compared for two prototypical software
   vendors serving incumbent operators and new operators respectively.
   Total efforts are an order of magnitude larger in the former case.
   Furthermore, even if only latest network protocols are taken into
   account, the efforts are significantly larger in the former case,
   therefore requiring several times greater number of employees to
   implement them. Therefore, a conclusion is made that the OSS/BSS market
   is likely to polarize into the vertical submarket of large software
   vendors serving incumbent operators, and the submarket of small vendors
   serving young operators. The latter submarket, due to the lower entry
   threshold for new vendors is more likely to be vertically disintegrated.},

Volume = {20},

Abstract = {From the outbreak of the war, the United States strove to establish a
   modern and efficient intelligence service. First, they founded the
   Coordination of Information (COI) and subsequently, the Office of
   Strategic Services - OSS), naming General William Donovan as head of
   both. Right from the establishment of OSS, Donovan wanted to expand its
   operations to North African and Mediterranean battlefields in order for
   the American intelligence service to be able to direct special
   operations against the Axis Powers in Yugoslavia from there. The setting
   up of the bases required a considerable amount of effort and negotiation
   with the British secret services, as they were used to defending their
   own interests and leading intelligence position in the Balkans and would
   not permit the OSS to operate independently in Yugoslavia. Donovan thus
   established bases in Cairo and Bari, with a Yugoslav section operating
   within each. The principal tasks of the two sections were to train the
   personnel to be sent to Yugoslavia, to gather intelligence about
   Yugoslavia, organise assistance and support for Yugoslav resistance
   movements and compile intelligence obtained by the OSS from its missions
   from the occupied Yugoslav territory. Aided initially by the government
   in exile and later on by Partisan representatives in southern Italy, the
   Yugoslav sections trained numerous Yugoslays many of who were Slovenes
   and sent them back to Yugoslavia. These worked as wireless operators,
   cryptographers and interpreters mostly between Slovene and Croatian
   Partisans. Some Slovenes, American Slovenes in particular, carried out
   the functions of mission chiefs or instructors in the Yugoslav sections
   of the OSS. Although collaborators with the American intelligence
   service made important contribution to the common struggle against the
   Axis Powers, they were branded by the Partisan leadership towards the
   end of the war and after it for having worked with the Americans.
   Following the Tehran Conference in December 1943, the supply of aid for
   the resistance movements was directed to support the Partisan movement.
   Towards the end of the war and with the growth of the National
   Liberation Movement (NOG) in Yugoslavia, the role of the Yugoslav
   section gradually diminished It can be concluded that the activities of
   the Yugoslav sections in Cairo and Bari significantly influenced the
   development of resistance movements in Yugoslavia and Slovenia, both in
   terms of organising aid as well as training and sending the American
   missions to Yugoslavia.},

Abstract = {Following George Eliot, Elizabeth von Arnim showcases a male rhetoric of
   naturalness. Her men cultivate and punish their women when they resist
   naturalizing. Without denigrating the intelligence of women, von Arnim
   shows their unwitting complicity in their subjection. In The Pastor's
   Wife (1914) and in Vera (1921), the highly literate women have read the
   wrong books or missed the unfriendly truths about relationships in those
   they have read. The husbands and lovers make shallow use of
   philosophical and scientific reasoning to justify their control and
   enforce female uniformity deemed natural'. Darwin is misappropriated by
   the tyrannical Wemyss: evolutionary theories support his imperious
   dismissal of Lucy's aunt and friends. Wemyss's most monstrous actions
   suggest an atavistic patriarchal dominance like the hereditary reversion
   theorized by Samuel Butler as unconscious memory. Wemyss brings up the
   issue of England's inheritance, and a disturbing vision dawns as the
   philistine and self-appointed natural man subdues Lucy. Daphne du
   Maurier's Rebecca (1938) follows Vera's plot, but it does not
   interrogate naturalness in the same way. Entrapped in her husband's
   vision of a natural woman, the narrator registers Rebecca's wild
   transgressiveness as more powerful and universal than her own tamed
   naturalness.},

Abstract = {This study was designed to improve the traditional scouring procedure
   using a solution of sodium silicate, sodium carbonate, H2O2, surfactant
   etc. as a refining agent for degumming machine-drawn raw silk sheet
   (RSS) and raw silk from the cocoon shell of the silkworm Bombyx mori.
   The RSS was scoured firstly in strongly alkaline electrolyzed water
   (SAEW, pH >= 11.5) consisting mainly of hydroxyl ions by boiling for 30
   min and then treated by the traditional scouring procedure (without
   alkaline compounds), resulting in refined silk floss. The recycled SAEW
   containing sericin was separated by ultrafiltration into a retentate
   with a range of high molecular mass values accounting for 10\% (w/w) of
   the cocoon shell and the filtrate was separated by nanofiltration into a
   purified H2O filtrate and a retentate containing oligopeptides and free
   amino acids, which can be used directly as food additives or in
   biological growth media. The ultrafiltration retentate was hydrolyzed by
   papain under three different conditions into three groups of sericin
   peptides with high, middle or low molecular mass. Sodium dodecyl
   sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and gel permeation
   high-performance liquid chromatography (GP-HPLC) showed the molecular
   mass of these sericin peptides was in the range 0.2-60, 0.2 -30 and
   0.2-15 kDa. These clean products have a variety of applications,
   including coating materials for surface modification, cell culture media
   and food additives. The procedure described here could be applied to the
   manufacture of silk floss quilts and the process of refining raw silk,
   which results in three clean products of the silk protein fibroin (i.e.
   stripped of sericin) and reduces environmental pollution from scouring
   waste containing sericin. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Background: Online forums are instruments through which information or
   problems are shared and discussed, including expressions of interests
   and intentions.
   Objective: In this paper, we present ongoing work aimed at analyzing the
   content of forum posts of a hybrid open source company that offers both
   free and commercial licenses, in order to help its community manager
   gain improved understanding of the forum discussions and sentiments and
   automatically discover new opportunities such as sales leads, i.e.,
   people who are interested in buying a license. These leads can then be
   forwarded to the sales team for follow-up and can result in them
   potentially making a sale, thus increasing company revenue.
   Method: For the analysis of the forums, an untapped channel for sales
   leads by the company, text analysis techniques are utilized to identify
   potential sales leads and the discussion topics and sentiments in those
   leads.
   Results: Results of our preliminary work make a positive contribution in
   lessening the community manager's work in understanding the sentiment
   and discussion topics in the hybrid open source forum community, as well
   as make it easier and faster to identify potential future customers.
   Conclusion: We believe that the results will positively contribute to
   improving the sales of licenses for the hybrid open source company.},

Abstract = {In this study, we propose a new open-source simulation platform that
   comprises computer-aided design and computer-aided engineering tools for
   highly automated evaluation of electric field distribution and neural
   activation during Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). It will be shown how a
   Volume Conductor Model (VCM) is constructed and examined using
   Python-controlled algorithms for generation, discretization and adaptive
   mesh refinement of the computational domain, as well as for
   incorporation of heterogeneous and anisotropic properties of the tissue
   and allocation of neuron models. The utilization of the platform is
   facilitated by a collection of predefined input setups and quick
   visualization routines. The accuracy of a VCM, created and optimized by
   the platform, was estimated by comparison with a commercial software.
   The results demonstrate no significant deviation between the models in
   the electric potential distribution. A qualitative estimation of
   different physics for the VCM shows an agreement with previous
   computational studies. The proposed computational platform is suitable
   for an accurate estimation of electric fields during DBS in scientific
   modeling studies. In future, we intend to acquire SDA and EMA approval.
   Successful incorporation of open-source software, controlled by in-house
   developed algorithms, provides a highly automated solution. The platform
   allows for optimization and uncertainty quantification (UQ) studies,
   while employment of the open-source software facilitates accessibility
   and reproducibility of simulations.},

Abstract = {After years of efforts to avoid or reduce the impact of infrastructure
   projects on nature, the principle of ecological compensation has been
   incorporated in Dutch governmental policy. Ecological compensation aims
   to recover those ecological functions and natural values that still
   remain affected after maximum effort has been made to reduce the impact
   of the intervention (mitigation). The accepted aim of current policy is
   thus no-net-loss of area and quality by means of mitigative and
   compensatory measures. As part sf the planning process for construction
   of a stretch of road in The Netherlands, viz,, the A50 road link in the
   province of North Brabant, a Nature Compensation Plan (NCP) was required
   to be drawn up. This work has recently been completed by the Regional
   Directorate of Public Works and Water Management, the initiator of the
   intervention. The NCP, initially presented as a Draft Plan, was drawn up
   by the Regional Directorate using a preliminary method designed by the
   Centre of Environmental Science of Leiden University for deriving
   compensatory measures. After an opportunity for public comment, the
   Draft Plan was revised to form a Final NCP. This article describes,
   firstly, the preliminary method for deriving ecological compensatory
   measures. The method starts by quantifying the effects of habitat loss,
   habitat disturbance (by changes in noise emissions, in the water table
   and in outdoor recreational patterns), barrier action and fauna
   casualties. Following mitigation of impacts on nature, compensation for
   non-mitigable effects focuses successively on area size, derived from
   the impact on breeding birds, and on area quality, derived from the
   habitat requirements of the vegetation and fauna groups affected by the
   road. Guidelines for identifying appropriate locations for compensation
   are also formulated. Secondly, the compensation method is applied to
   calculate the mitigative and compensatory measures for the A50
   trajectory between Eindhoven and Oss. Thirdly, two comparisons are made:
   the Draft NCP is compared with the results of the preliminary method,
   and the Draft and the Final NCP are compared with one another in order
   to identify the role of the interest groups that played a major role in
   commenting on the Draft Plan. Finally, realization of the compensatory
   measures and development of the preliminary method itself are discussed.
   On the basis of the experience with the A50 case study, a more robust
   compensation method for road projects is to be developed.},

Abstract = {How long do vulnerabilities live in the repositories of large, evolving
   projects? Although the question has been identified as an interesting
   problem by the software community in online forums, it has not been
   investigated yet in adequate depth and scale, since the process of
   identifying the exact point in time when a vulnerability was introduced
   is particularly cumbersome. In this paper, we provide an automatic
   approach for accurately estimating how long vulnerabilities remain in
   the code (their lifetimes). Our method relies on the observation that
   while it is difficult to pinpoint the exact point of introduction for
   one vulnerability, it is possible to accurately estimate the average
   lifetime of a large enough sample of vulnerabilities, via a heuristic
   approach.
   With our approach, we perform the first large-scale measurement of Free
   and Open Source Software vulnerability lifetimes, going beyond
   approaches estimating lower bounds prevalent in previous research. We
   find that the average lifetime of a vulnerability is around 4 years,
   varying significantly between projects (similar to 2 years for Chromium,
   similar to 7 years for OpenSSL). The distribution of lifetimes can be
   approximately described by an exponential distribution. There are no
   statistically significant differences between the lifetimes of different
   vulnerability types when considering specific projects. Vulnerabilities
   are getting older, as the average lifetime of fixed vulnerabilities in a
   given year increases over time, influenced by the overall increase of
   code age. However, they live less than non-vulnerable code, with an
   increasing spread over time for some projects, suggesting a notion of
   maturity that can be considered an indicator of quality. While the
   introduction of fuzzers does not significantly reduce the lifetimes of
   memory-related vulnerabilities, further research is needed to better
   understand and quantify the impact of fuzzers and other tools on
   vulnerability lifetimes and on the security of codebases.},

Abstract = {Studies made Sept. 15 to Nov. 6, 1943, in a 12-county area in northern
   Michigan showed the factors most strongly influencing the stand density
   and pod yield of common milkweed, A. syriaca, to be degree of
   competition from quackgrass or bluegrass; shading in and adjacent to
   wooded areas; and the time and intensity of cultivation in cropland
   areas. Within wide limits topography and soil type, texture, and
   fertility seemed to be of minor importance, although milkweed appeared
   to grow best on well drained lighter soils of average to high fertility
   and was never found on poorly drained or highly acid soils. Milkweed
   appeared to find its most favorable environment on recently abandoned
   row-crop land and on recently cut-over stump land in situations where a
   sod of quackgrass or bluegrass had not been established. In Emmet
   County, probably the most densely infested county in the U. S., milkweed
   occupied 9.8\% of the cultivated land, 12\% of the pasture and abandoned
   crop land, and 2.5\% of the hay meadow or mow-land, or an average of
   8.4\% of all cleared land. Milkweed occupied only 0.16\% of the
   forest-covered land.},

Abstract = {The objective of this study was to introduce the complementary

   digital human anatomy. Visible Korean (VK) team had presented the

   Thereafter, Anatomage (San Jose, CA) manufactured the table by making
   3-dimensional (3D) volume models from the data. Separately, the VK team
   reconstructed surface models from the same data and inputted the models
   in portable document format (PDF) file, which can be opened on the
   personal computer. The software to browse the sectioned and outlined
   images was also programmed by VK team. In this report, the table and the
   VK free software were compared to establish their supplementary
   potentiality. Both the table and free software displayed equivalent 3D
   models reconstructed from the same sectioned images. In both platforms,
   the models were labeled for users to recognize the individual
   structures. Both the table and the free software had respective features
   to enhance the virtual dissecting experience. The table came with its
   designated hardware with life-sized display, whereas VK software could
   be run in any personal computer without burden. The coexistence of the
   table and free software will enrich the people learning anatomy. With
   increasing VK data and free software, more and more commercial or
   complimentary products are expected to be produced.},

Abstract = {The OSS on the Origins Space Telescope is designed to decode the cosmic
   history of nucleosynthesis, star formation, and supermassive black hole
   growth with wide-area spatial-spectral 3-D surveys across the full 25 to
   590 micron band. Six wideband grating modules combine to cover the full
   band at R=300, each couples a long slit with 60-190 beams on the sky.
   OSS will have a total of 120,000 background-limited detector pixels in
   the six 2-D arrays which provide spatial and spectral coverage. The
   suite of grating modules can be used for pointed observations of targets
   of interest, and are particularly powerful for 3-D spectral spectral
   surveys. To chart the transition from interstellar material,
   particularly water, to planetary systems, two high-spectral-resolution
   modes are included. The first incorporates a Fourier-transform
   spectrometer (FTS) in front of the gratings providing resolving power of
   25,000 (delta v = 12 km/s) at 179 mu m to resolve water emission in
   protoplanetary disk spectra. The second boosts the FTS capability with
   an additional etalon (Fabry-Perot interferometer) to provide 2 km/s
   resolution in this line to enable detailed structural studies of disks
   in the various water and HD lines. Optical, thermal, and mechanical
   designs are presented, and the system approach to the detector readout
   enabling the large formats is described.},

Abstract = {The English Revision of the Authorized Version of the Bible was

   finally broke the hold of the King James Version. The conflict over the
   revision has been known only through published sources. A seal has
   remained over the dynamics between the two dozen members of the
   committee responsible for the revision of the New Testament. The
   official minute book yields nothing of the textual, grammatical, and
   translational debates nor of the voting patterns governing decisions.
   This gap can now be overcome with the discovery of two of the twenty-one
   notebooks kept by Brooke Foss Westcott, one of the members of the
   committee. His detailed account of each members' arguments over almost
   every verse of Matthew's Gospel provides an invaluable insight into the

Abstract = {The estimation of flood losses is an essential component for
   risk-oriented flood design, risk mapping or financial appraisals in the
   reinsurance sector. However, only simple models, e.g. stage-damage
   curves, have been used frequently. Further, the reliability of flood
   loss and risk estimates is fairly unknown, since flood loss models are
   scarcely validated.
   In the aftermath of flooding in August 2002 large data sets of flood
   losses were collected at affected properties in Germany. These data were
   used to derive multi-factorial loss models. This paper presents FLEMOps
   - the Flood Loss Estimation Model for the private sector, which
   estimates direct monetary flood losses of residential buildings and
   household contents considering water level, building type and building
   quality. In an additional model stage (FLEMOps+), the effects of private
   precautionary measures as well as of the contamination of the floodwater
   can be quantified. Together with census data and land use information
   the model is adapted for applications on the meso-scale.
   Further, different data sets of repair costs for single buildings and in
   whole municipalities were used to validate loss estimates on the micro-
   as well as on the meso-scale. First results show that the model FLEMOps+
   outperforms simple stage-damage-functions.},

   value for Ni exposure was 0.321 mu g/mL (approximately 30\% inhibition),
   whereas Mn was the second most toxic metal followed by Fe with the 96 hr
   LC50 values of 0.684 mu g/mL and 3.020 mu g/mL respectively. This study
   demonstrated that even though Fe and Mn are essential micronutrients for
   A. flos-aquae, both show toxic effects at high concentrations. The
   difference in the toxicity value between Fe and Mn for A. flos-aquae is
   five times and this indicates that Mn was five times more toxic to A.
   flos-aquae than Fe suggestings that the cyanobacteria is more tolerant
   to Fe when compared with Mn.},

Journal = {BOLETIM DE CIENCIAS GEODESICAS},
Year = {2021},

Abstract = {The forward intersection method is already widely used in the geodetic
   survey of coordinates of inaccessible points, especially when only angle
   measurements are available, in this case, also called the triangulation
   method. However, the mathematical solution of the 3D forward
   intersection with the analytical definition of spatial lines, resolved
   by the Minimum Distances Method, is still not widespread in the academic
   and professional environment. This mathematical modeling determines the
   3D coordinates of a point located in the middle of the minimum distance
   between two or more spatial lines, which spatially ``intersect{''}
   towards the observation point. This solution is more accurate than
   others presented in the literature because it simultaneously solves the
   problem of 3D determination of a point by the method of least squares,
   in addition to providing an estimate of the coordinate precision, which
   are inherent to the adjustment. This work, therefore, has the objective
   of explaining the Minimum Distances Method for the spatial intersection
   of targeted measurements with a Total Station from two or more known
   observation points for the 3D determination of inaccessible points
   located in corners of buildings. For the analysis of the method, a
   Python tool was developed for QGIS that calculates the 3D coordinates
   and generates the adjustment processing report, being applied with real
   observations of the Geodetic survey of the SUDENE building, in
   Recife-PE. The methodology developed in this work proved to be suitable
   for measurements of large structures, achieving spherical precision
   better than +/- 1.0 cm, following the Brazilian standards for urban
   cadastre.},

Title = {THE USE OF A FREE SOFTWARE FOR DETERMINATION OF THE INTERNAL FORCES OF
   LIVE LOADS IN BEAMS OF CONCRETE BRIDGES},
Journal = {HOLOS},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {36},
Number = {3},
Abstract = {Ftool is used in civil engineering due to its facilities and
   simplifications in structural modeling; for not requiring robust
   computers for its use; not having high processing time in the analyzes,
   being generally fast and for being a free software. It allows the
   creation of live loads, and these are used in calculating the envelope
   of internal forces in bridge beams. Despite this, a significant number
   of projects, dissertations and theses in the area of bridges, especially
   in graduate courses, still do not use it in the analysis of life loads
   in bridge beams. In this sense, this project aims to encourage the use
   of Ftool to carry out structural analysis in beams of bridge beams,
   whether in determining the respective lines of influence or internal
   efforts; so that graduate students and researchers start to use it in
   their respective projects. Four numerical examples are developed and
   each one uses paid software, SAP2000, Ansys or GAP-GEL v1, and the
   results are compared with Ftool. In all examples, the variations in the
   results are less than 9\%, in the worst case, but in most of them, this
   variation is less than 3\%. These differences can be considered as
   acceptable, since, later, different coefficients are applied. Finally,
   the Ftool proved to be effective and robust, with reliable results and,
   therefore, recommended for the determination of the different internal
   and TTL efforts in the beams, due to different live loads acting on
   bridge decks composed of two, three, seven and eight beams. Without the
   need to use more complex and paid software to carry out such analyzes.},

   considerable efforts to provide FLOSS developers with a means to quickly
   find and fix various kinds of bugs in FLOSS products such as security

   developers think about bugs to be removed preferentially. Without a full
   understanding of FLOSS developers' perceptions of bug finding and
   fixing, researchers' efforts might remain far away from FLOSS
   developers' needs. In this study, we interview 322 notable GitHub
   developers about high impact bugs to understand FLOSS developers' needs
   for bug finding and fixing, and we manually inspect and classify
   developers' answers (bugs) by symptoms and root causes of bugs. As a
   result, we show that security and breakage bugs are highly crucial for
   FLOSS developers. We also identify what kinds of high impact bugs should
   be studied newly by the SE community to help FLOSS developers.},

Abstract = {Open source communities have contributed widely to modern software
   development. The number of open source software (OSS) has increased
   rapidly in the past two decades. Most open source foundations (such as
   Eclipse, Mozilla and Apache) operate as non-profit; those foundations
   usually seek donations from users/developers to financially support
   their activities. Without such support, some projects might discontinue
   to develop, or even disappear. However, contributions to those
   foundations are usually solicited in a very simple and modest way, with
   no special promotions or attractions for such contributions. The aim of
   this study is to promote new strategies that can help to increase
   donations to OSS projects. We analyzed how existing donation pages are
   structured. We then introduce behavioral economics and psychological
   theories that have been used in other disciplines to promote donations
   in OSS. In particular, we used the social proof theory, i.e., where
   people tend to consider the actions of others in an attempt to reflect
   correct behavior when they choose their own actions, and legitimization
   of paltry contributions strategy i.e., using specific phrases such as
   ``even a very small amount will help{''} to encourage donations. In this
   study, we conducted an experiment with University students to examine if
   those theories are effective in encouraging donations to OSS. Our
   initial results indicate that the two strategies were indeed effective
   in promoting donations, and showed that users were more open for
   donation compared to traditional methods. This is only a preliminary
   analysis - we aim to include more users in the future for a more
   comprehensive analysis. We anticipate that such techniques might help
   OSS projects to secure more donations in the future.},

Abstract = {This paper describes the structure-based design of a preliminary drug
   candidate against COVID-19 using free software and publicly available
   X-ray crystallographic structures. The goal of this tutorial is to
   disseminate skills in structure-based drug design and to allow others to
   unleash their own creativity to design new drugs to fight the current
   pandemic. The tutorial begins with the X-ray crystallographic structure
   of the main protease (M-pro) of the SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) bound to
   a peptide substrate and then uses the UCSF Chimera software to modify
   the substrate to create a cyclic peptide inhibitor within the M-pro
   active site. Finally, the tutorial uses the molecular docking software
   AutoDock Vina to show the interaction of the cyclic peptide inhibitor
   with both SARS-CoV M-pro and the highly homologous SARS-CoV-2 M-pro. The
   supporting information provides an illustrated step-by-step protocol, as
   well as a video showing the inhibitor design process, to help readers
   design their own drug candidates for COVID-19 and the coronaviruses that

Abstract = {Deproteinized cancellous bovine bone (Bio-Oss(R)) was placed as a
   grafting material for sinus floor elevation in the right posterior
   maxilla. After 6 months of healing, 3 cylindrical titanium-plasma coated
   implants were inserted. Six months later at the abutment connection, it
   was realized that 1 of the implants could not be reconstructed due to
   unfavorable positioning. This implant was removed along with a small
   portion of the surrounding periimplant tissues. The specimen was
   processed according to standard techniques for hard tissue histology. In
   both the grafted area and the previously existing area of the sinus
   floor the bone was primarily of lamellar structure. Intimate contact
   between newly formed bone and the particles of the graft was present. No
   overt signs of resorption of the graft particles were visible.
   Histomorphometric analysis revealed 63\% of implant-bone contact in the
   zone of pre-existing bone, and 73\% in the grafted zone. The area
   density of bone amounted to 27\% in the non-grafted as compared to 28\%
   in the grafted area. In conclusion, this case report documented that
   deproteinized bovine bone, when used as a grafting material for
   augmentation of the sinus floor, may lead to proper osseointegration of
   a dental implant.},

   square one as the cyclic noises. Thereby, the proposed models will be
   able to comprehend two characteristics of OSS and network environment.
   Then, it will be useful to assess the operation effort expenditures with
   network environment of edge OSS service. Moreover, actual effort data
   sets are analyzed to show numerical examples of the proposed model

Title = {Early healing of alveolar bone promoted by microRNA-21-loaded
   nanoparticles combined with Bio-Oss particles},
Journal = {CHEMICAL ENGINEERING JOURNAL},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {401},
Month = {DEC 1},
Abstract = {Features of rapid loss and inadequate bone mass of alveolar bone after
   teeth extraction are still great obstacles for a successful
   subsequential dental implantation. MicroRNA-based therapy, though an
   advantageous strategy in tissue regeneration, is still not available for
   alveolar bone due to the unique complicated oral environment which is
   full of enzymes and electrolytes. In this paper, a microRNA-activated
   scaffold constituted of microRNA21 nanoparticles combined with porous
   Bio-Oss particles was designed for the use of accelerating the early
   stage healing of the alveolar bone. It was noteworthy that the
   regeneration of alveolar bone was rapidly promoted to be shortened from
   the ordinary 3 months to 2 weeks. The nanoparticles designed by us
   according to the oral environment could protect microRNA from various
   enzymes and electrolytes attack, leading to a steady, continuous, and
   efficient delivery of gene. With the aid of porous Bio-Oss, microRNA-21
   released in situ and its effects on highly reducing the recovery time
   and improving the quality of newly formed bone at the alveolar site were
   confirmed for the first time. Great potential could be seen for the
   microRNA-mediated biofunctionalized scaffold on the future dental
   application.},

Abstract = {This essay argues that steam and its gaseous properties in George
   Eliot's The Mill on the Floss (1861) represent capital's increasing
   abstraction in the nineteenth century that threatened to disrupt
   economic and affective relations between people, property, and places
   associated with the past while nevertheless introducing new modes of
   circulation and more diffusive opportunities for sympathetic connection.
   The novel's return to an earlier stage in the development of capital
   places the 1830s of the story in dialogue with the 1860s of its
   narration, while inviting readers to compare the values of this earlier
   period to those of their own. Considering this comparative structure in
   relation to nineteenth-century ethnography and its
   interlocutors-including Auguste Comte, Ludwig Feuerbach, and Karl Marx-I
   read Edward Tulliver's primitive materialism and the Dodson sisters'
   fetishism as both humorous reactions and more earnest forms of
   resistance to this increasing abstraction. Eliot ultimately turns toward
   the figurative possibilities of sublimation as a way to bridge the
   concrete and the abstract, the particular and the general, will and
   affect, self and other. Sublimation-not liquidation-therefore serves as
   the more apt metaphor for sympathy in the novel.},

Abstract = {Aim
   The objective of this experiment was to analyze processes involved in
   the incorporation of Bio-Oss (R) Collagen in host tissue during healing
   following tooth extraction and grafting.
   Methods
   Five beagle dogs were used. Four premolars in the mandible (P-3(3),
   P-4(4)) were hemi-sected, the distal roots were removed and the fresh
   extraction socket filled with Bio-Oss (R) Collagen. The mucosa was
   mobilized and the extraction site was closed with interrupted sutures.
   The tooth extraction and grafting procedures were scheduled in such a
   way that biopsies representing 1 and 3 days, as well as 1, 2 and 4 weeks
   of healing could be obtained. The dogs were euthanized and perfused with
   a fixative. Each experimental site, including the distal socket area,
   was dissected. The sites were decalcified in EDTA, and serial sections
   representing the central part of the socket were prepared in the
   mesio-distal plane and parallel with the long axis of the extraction
   socket. Sections were stained in hematoxylin and eosin and were used for
   the overall characteristics of the tissues in the extraction socket. In
   specimens representing 1, 2 and 4 weeks of healing the various tissue
   elements were assessed using a morphometric point counting procedure.
   Tissue elements such as cells, fibers, vessels, leukocytes and
   mineralized bone were determined. In deparaffinized sections structures
   and cells positive for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity
   (TRAP), alkaline phosphatase and osteopontin were identified.
   Results
   The biomaterial was first trapped in the fibrin network of the coagulum.
   Neutrophilic leukocytes {[}polymorphonuclear (PMN) cells] migrated to
   the surface of the foreign particles. In a second phase the PMN cells
   were replaced by multinuclear TRAP-positive cells (osteoclasts). The
   osteoclasts apparently removed material from the surface of the
   xenogeneic graft. When after 1-2 weeks the osteoclasts disappeared from
   the Bio-Oss (R) granules they were followed by osteoblasts that laid
   down bone mineral in the collagen bundles of the provisional matrix. In
   this third phase the Bio-Oss (R) particles became osseointegrated.
   Conclusions
   It was demonstrated that the incorporation of Bio-Oss (R) in the tissue
   that formed in an extraction wound involved a series of different
   processes.

Abstract = {Nowadays, ICT is directly linked to open source and its philosophy. This
   philosophy is not obvious for the students of Pedagogy, some of them are
   not even selfconfident using technology. However, these students are
   going to be the catalysts of the change of paradigm necessary for the

   generation in the Educational area. During this year (2006/07), we have
   just worked on the understanding of how important is to create in groups
   and to share the creations with the educational community. Thus, the
   pre-task was to look for information about what open source is and to
   explain it in a forum; then, the group attended a meeting about open

Abstract = {Over the last few years the notion of the Collaborative Economy has
   become increasingly popular despite the lack of consensus around its
   meaning. This term includes a wide variety of experiences from time
   banks and urban gardens to startups or digital platforms. The recent
   expansion of all tthese initiatives can be linked to a combination of
   factors such as the technological development, economic recession and
   other overlapping crises (environmental, care, political.) and changing
   social values. During 2014-2015, two almost parallel studies were
   undertaken following a similar methodology. The first one was aimed at
   defining and identifying Collaborative Economy practices linked to
   Andalusia's public universities. The second study searched for
   entrepreneurship sharing initiatives in the region. The results led to
   the following question about the nature of the Collaborative Economy: Is
   it possible to define these practices as postcapitalist initiatives and
   do they promote a fairer and more equalitarian society or do they
   respond to capital forces and simply aim to continue extracting and
   privatizing value which is socially generated? This article analyses a
   specific set of initiatives identified in Andalusia, those based on open
   source software and digital production. Its conclusions are that, these
   initiatives are, up to a point, embedded with the hacker ethic and the
   logics of open knowledge. Therefore, they could be situated within the
   promotion of a global commons which is opposed to the hegemonic logics
   of netarchical capitalism.},

Abstract = {Since the 2000 Constitution entered into force, achieving technological
   autonomy and independence has been pursued in Venezuela in order to
   contribute to the economic, social and political development of the
   country. Thus, the obligatory use of free software in public
   administration was ordained to promote the opportune and efficient
   rendering of public services, since this technology is included as an
   instrument for the above-mentioned tasks. For example, the Ministry of
   Popular Power for Internal Relations and Justice, through the Autonomous
   Service of Registries and Notaries and the emission of decrees and laws
   that govern the corresponding competence, such as Presidential Decree
   3.390 (Presidency of the Republic, 2004), has implemented modernization
   through the automation of registry and notary processes by employing
   electronic means in which free software has a place. Interest has arisen
   in establishing an effective legal application for the public function
   developed by Registries and Notaries by implementing such an IT
   migration. Research of the documentary type with a bibliographical
   design was adopted using the documentary observation method based on the
   Law of Public Registry and Notary (National Assembly, 2006) and the
   Organic Law of Civil Registry (National Assembly, 2009), that regulate
   registry and notary matters in Venezuela, making it possible to obtain
   results through a legal hermeneutic applicable in the method of dogmatic
   juridical analysis, concluding with knowledge of the legal effects that
   determined the essentialness of concrete actions to use this type of
   software, according to precepts applicable to the specified public
   function.},

Title = {`SleepCycles' package for R - A free software tool for the detection of
   sleep cycles from sleep staging},
Journal = {METHODSX},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {8},
Abstract = {The detection of NREM-REM sleep cycles in human sleep data (i.e.,
   polysomnographically assessed sleep stages) enables fine-grained
   analyses of ultradian variations in sleep microstructure (e.g., sleep
   spindles, and arousals), or other amplitude- and frequency-specific
   electroencephalographic features during sleep. While many laboratories
   have software that is used internally, reproducibility requires the
   availability of open-source software. Therefore, we here introduce the
   `SleepCycles' package for R, an open-source software package that
   identifies sleep cycles and their respective (non-) rapid eye movement
   ({[}N]REM) periods from sleep staging data. Additionally, each (N)REM
   period is subdivided into parts of equal duration (percentiles), which
   may be useful for further fine-grained analyses. The detection criteria
   used in the package are, with some adaptations, largely based on
   criteria originally proposed by Feinberg and Floyd (1979). The latest
   version of the package can be downloaded from the Comprehensive R
   Archives Network (CRAN).
   The package `SleepCycles' for R allows to identify sleep cycles and
   their respective NREM and REM periods from sleep staging results.
   Besides the cycle detection, NREM and REM periods are also split into
   parts of equal duration (percentiles) thereby allowing for a better
   temporal resolution across the night and comparisons of sleep cycles
   with different durations amongst different night recordings. (C) 2021

Title = {Peculiarities of Bone Regeneration in Cases of Bio-Oss® and Autological
   Bone Graft Use - Experimental Study},
Journal = {DENTAL AND MEDICAL PROBLEMS},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {51},
Number = {4},
Pages = {458-467},
Month = {OCT-DEC},
Abstract = {Background. Bone tissue regeneration remains one of the most important
   issues of maxillofacial surgery. Restoration of the native structure of
   bone after osteoplasty is directly related to the process of
   revascularization, because the growing of blood vessels into the graft
   is a precondition for transport of osteogenic cells, growth factors
   necessary for further osteogenesis.
   Objectives. To determine the peculiarities of bone tissue regeneration
   after osteoplasty with BioOss (R) and compare it with autological bone
   graft.
   Material and Methods. Experimental study was conducted on 60 white rats
   (males, aged 6- 8 month, weight 270- 380 g). The area of dorsal surface
   of the shinbone was used for implantation. After opening access to the
   bone surface, one 2 mm-diameter defect was formed on each shinbone. One
   of those bone defects was filled with osteoplastic material and the
   opposite was healing under a blood clot. After that the wound in soft
   tissues was closed in layer by layer. The osteocalcin level in blood
   serum was determined by ELISA employing N-MID Osteocalcin (R) ELISA
   (IDS) test system(enzyme immunological test for the quantitative
   measurement of osteocalcin). The peculiarities of revascularization were
   studied by histologic method. Histologic specimen were stained using
   Schmorl technique (thionine with phenol trinitrate) and natural
   hematoxylin-eosin.
   Results. Mean values of osteocalcin concentration after BioOss
   implantation ranged from 2 +/- 0.06 ng/mL to 3.65 +/- 0.09 ng/mL; after
   autological bone graft transplant - from 1.88 +/- 0.09 ng/mLto 2.2 +/-
   0.09 ng/mL. In the case of Bio-Oss use, the most active
   revascularization processes and the highest level of osteocalcin were
   registered on day 60. In the case of autological bone graft use, the
   quantity of blood vessels increased steadily and equally during the
   whole period of the experiment.
   Conclusions. According to the obtained results, the use of autological
   bone graft and Bio-Oss osteoplastic material increases bone formation
   and revascularization activity and improves the bone structure unlike
   when healing took place under the blood clot},

Title = {OSS (Outer Solar System): a fundamental and planetary physics mission to
   Neptune, Triton and the Kuiper Belt},
Journal = {EXPERIMENTAL ASTRONOMY},

Volume = {34},

Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {The present OSS (Outer Solar System) mission continues a long and bright
   tradition by associating the communities of fundamental physics and
   planetary sciences in a single mission with ambitious goals in both
   domains. OSS is an M-class mission to explore the Neptune system almost
   half a century after the flyby of the Voyager 2 spacecraft. Several
   discoveries were made by Voyager 2, including the Great Dark Spot (which
   has now disappeared) and Triton's geysers. Voyager 2 revealed the
   dynamics of Neptune's atmosphere and found four rings and evidence of
   ring arcs above Neptune. Benefiting from a greatly improved
   instrumentation, a mission as OSS would result in a striking advance in
   the study of the farthest planet of the solar system. Furthermore, OSS
   would provide a unique opportunity to visit a selected Kuiper Belt
   object subsequent to the passage of the Neptunian system. OSS would help
   consolidate the hypothesis of the origin of Triton as a Kuiper Belt
   object captured by Neptune, and to improve our knowledge on the
   formation of the solar system. The OSS probe would carry instruments
   allowing precise tracking of the spacecraft during the cruise. It would
   facilitate the best possible tests of the laws of gravity in deep space.
   These objectives are important for fundamental physics, as they test
   General Relativity, our current theoretical description of gravitation,
   but also for cosmology, astrophysics and planetary science, as General
   Relativity is used as a tool in all these domains. In particular, the
   models of solar system formation uses General Relativity to describe the
   crucial role of gravity. OSS is proposed as an international cooperation
   between ESA and NASA, giving the capability for ESA to launch an M-class
   mission towards the farthest planet of the solar system, and to a Kuiper
   Belt object. The proposed mission profile would allow to deliver a 500
   kg class spacecraft. The design of the probe is mainly constrained by
   the deep space gravity test in order to minimize the perturbation of the
   accelerometer measurement.},

Abstract = {Co-membership has been considered as a major mechanism for constructing
   social networks, but it has met many criticisms over time for failing to
   control for alternative mechanisms for knowledge flow. Although social
   networks constructed in online environment can reduce such
   possibilities, it is not without limitations. One possible mechanism for
   learning and knowledge flow is direct watching and observation. This
   study investigates the impact of co-membership taking into account the
   alternative mechanism of watching under the setting of OSS development
   at GitHub. It finds that both co-membership and watching contribute
   positively to OSS success, and thus shows the co-existence of both
   experiential learning and vicarious learning for OSS development.
   Moreover, it finds the impact of co-membership is much stronger than
   watching. While the impact of co-membership may be biased in prior
   literature, this study confirms that co-membership is indeed an
   effective mechanism for constructing online social networks for
   knowledge flow.},

Abstract = {Author summaryMost bioinformatics workflows deal with DNA/RNA variations
   that are typically represented in the variant call format (VCF)-a file
   format that describes mutations (SNP and MNP), insertions and deletions
   (INDEL) against a reference genome. Here we present a wide range of free
   and open source software tools that are used in biomedical sequencing
   workflows around the world today.
   Since its introduction in 2011 the variant call format (VCF) has been
   widely adopted for processing DNA and RNA variants in practically all
   population studies-as well as in somatic and germline mutation studies.
   The VCF format can represent single nucleotide variants,
   multi-nucleotide variants, insertions and deletions, and simple
   structural variants called and anchored against a reference genome.Here
   we present a spectrum of over 125 useful, complimentary free and open
   source software tools and libraries, we wrote and made available through
   the multiple vcflib, bio-vcf, cyvcf2, hts-nim and slivar projects. These
   tools are applied for comparison, filtering, normalisation, smoothing
   and annotation of VCF, as well as output of statistics, visualisation,
   and transformations of files variants. These tools run everyday in
   critical biomedical pipelines and countless shell scripts. Our tools are
   part of the wider bioinformatics ecosystem and we highlight best
   practices.We shortly discuss the design of VCF, lessons learnt, and how
   we can address more complex variation through pangenome graph formats,
   variation that can not easily be represented by the VCF format.},

   Buying Secondhand Products in Online Platforms},
Journal = {SUSTAINABILITY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {12},
Number = {21},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Online secondhand markets have been growing substantially over the last
   decade and are expected to grow further. In order to effectively promote
   the growth of online secondhand markets, this paper designs and
   validates a scale to assess customer perception of the service quality
   of secondhand products purchased via online platforms. Complementarily,
   the paper assesses how each of the different dimensions that configure
   the scale contributes to explaining the fulfillment of customers'
   expectations. The scale is defined by 23 items and is arranged in 5
   dimensions from the literature on online commerce as well as on the
   sharing economy. A sample of 200 questionnaires is used for exploratory
   factor analysis. A second sample of 507 users is used for confirmatory
   factor analysis. The quality perceived by online customers of secondhand
   products depends on the quality of the interactions that they have with
   the website, with the vendor, and with the product. The dimension that
   contributes the most to customer fulfillment of expectations is product
   quality. Findings identify the items that contribute the most to quality
   perception and fulfillment of expectations, facilitating the development
   of more effective strategies for platform owners and vendors who want to
   attract and retain customers of secondhand products. Complementarily,
   these findings are useful to businesses and governments that want to
   promote a more sustainable economy by reducing consumption of new
   products and promoting reutilization of existing ones.},

Abstract = {An analysis of global statistics shows a substantial increase in flood
   damage over the past few decades. Moreover, it is expected that flood
   risk will continue to rise due to the combined effect of increasing
   numbers of people and economic assets in risk-prone areas and the
   effects of climate change. In order to mitigate the impact of natural
   hazards on European economies and societies, improved risk assessment,
   and management needs to be pursued. With the recent transition to a more
   risk-based approach in European flood management policy, flood analysis
   models have become an important part of flood risk management (FRM). In
   this context, free and open-source (FOSS) geospatial models provide
   better and more complete information to stakeholders regarding their
   compliance with the Flood Directive (2007/60/EC) for effective and
   collaborative FRM. A geospatial model is an essential tool to address
   the European challenge for comprehensive and sustainable FRM because it
   allows for the use of integrated social and economic quantitative risk
   outcomes in a spatio-temporal domain. Moreover, a FOSS model can support
   governance processes using an interactive, transparent and collaborative
   approach, providing a meaningful experience that both promotes learning
   and generates knowledge through a process of guided discovery regarding
   flood risk management. This article aims to organize the available
   knowledge and characteristics of the methods available to give
   operational recommendations and principles that can support authorities,
   local entities, and the stakeholders involved in decision-making with
   regard to flood risk management in their compliance with the Floods
   Directive (2007/60/EC).},

Abstract = {This study investigated psychometric properties (standardization and

   (RCF-OSS) in a sample of 217 healthy children aged 5-7 years. Our
   results showed that RCF-OSS performance changes significantly between 5
   and 7 years of age. While most 5-year-olds used a local approach when
   copying the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure (ROCF), 7-year-olds
   increasingly adopted a global approach. RCF-OSS performance correlated
   significantly, but moderately with measures of ROCF accuracy, executive
   functioning (fluency, working memory, reasoning), and non-executive
   functioning (visual-motor integration, visual attention, processing
   speed, numeracy). These findings seem to indicate that RCF-OSS
   performance reflects a range of cognitive skills at 5 to 7 years of age,
   including aspects of executive and non-executive functioning.},

Title = {Reconstructing 3D ocean subsurface salinity (OSS) from T-S mapping via a
   data-driven deep learning model},
Journal = {OCEAN MODELLING},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {184},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Despite the increasing volume of oceanographic data, the available ocean
   salinity data remains patently insufficient which limits studying ocean
   dynamics, climate change and the calculation of salinity-related ocean
   elements. Considering that traditional salinity reconstruction methods
   often suffer from various factors such as additional constraints, priori
   physical assumptions and large of specific regression coefficients, a
   generative adversarial networks (GANs) based deep learning (DL)
   framework is proposed to directly construct a near real-time,
   high-resolution daily three-dimensional ocean subsurface salinity (3D
   OSS) dataset from a data driven perspective in this study. Four models
   with different structural combinations are designed in the China's
   marginal seas. Experimental results demonstrate that the models can
   successfully reconstruct the high-precision and high-resolution 3D OSS
   on a daily scale in 12 depth levels (from 2 m to 200 m). The asymmetric
   inception3DGAN model with all enhanced structures has the highest
   accuracy, the average root-mean-squared error (RMSE) is 0.135psu, the
   average coefficient of determination (R2) is 0.5641 and the percent bias
   is 0.436\%. Comparing with model without enhanced structures, the
   average RMSE is decreased by 22.41\% when adding all the enhancement
   structures. Besides, temporal and spatial error analysis are also
   conducted to evaluate the models' performance from different aspects.
   Finally, the model results are used to analyze common ocean elements,
   such as water mass properties, dynamic fields and geostrophic velocity
   fields, demonstrating that the 3D OSS dataset construction approach
   proposed in this study not only provides some new insights into ocean
   observations, but also has high application values.},

Abstract = {Open source projects rely on issue tracking systems such as JIRA or
   online forums to keep track of users' feedback, expectations and
   requested features. However, since users are not fully aware of existing
   features, when submitting new feature requests, redundant requests often
   appear in the new feature list. It is a waste of time and effort for
   project contributors to manually identify and reject them, especially in
   complex systems with many features. Our research is aiming to find a
   suitable solution to identify redundant feature requests in OSS
   projects. We have conducted a survey on a well-known Open Source
   community, Hibernate and gathered all of its feature requests
   up-to-date. Through studying and categorizing the characteristics of
   these feature requests, we have found that about 37\% of the feature
   requests were rejected and the most common rejection reason was
   redundancy. Also we have found that it is very expensive to identify and
   resolve these redundant feature requests. In this paper, we have
   proposed our solution to automatically identify redundant feature
   requests through a Feature Tree Model along with a future research
   agenda.},

Title = {A Semi-Automatic Method to Create an Affordable Three-Dimensional
   Printed Splint Using Open-Source and Free Software},
Journal = {CUREUS JOURNAL OF MEDICAL SCIENCE},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {13},
Number = {3},
Month = {MAR 16},
Abstract = {Three-dimensional (3D) printed splints are becoming more feasible in
   recent years, showing promising lightweight, waterproof, and hygienic
   designs. A typical procedure to create 3D printed splints is obtaining
   the geometry of a body segment using a 3D scanner, creating a 3D
   printable splint model based on the geometry of the body segment, and 3D
   printing the splint. As technologies of 3D scanning and 3D printing
   become mature gradually, the main challenge to fabricate 3D printed
   splint is to create 3D printable splint models. To solve this challenge,
   researchers have proposed various methods to design 3D splint models.
   However, most methods require extensive 3D modeling skills that medical
   professionals are lacking. In this work, a semi-automatic method is
   proposed to create a 3D printable model. Given the geometry of a body
   segment obtained through a 3D scanner, the method includes three key
   steps: (1) create a draft splint lattice structure, (2) optimize the
   splint structure, and (3) create a 3D printable model based on the
   optimized structure. All the software adopted for this method is free
   and readily available, and thus, there is no additional cost to convert
   from a scanned geometry of a body segment to a 3D printable splint
   model. Because the majority of the work is done automatically, with
   initial training, a medical professional should be able to create a 3D
   printable model using the proposed method, given the geometry of a body
   segment. The proposed method is demonstrated by creating a 3D printed
   wrist splint and the demo is uploaded into GitHub, a popular open-source
   platform.},

   The rule established from the case of Foss vs. Harbottle, which paved
   way for exploitation of the minority shareholders, giving excessive
   power at the hands of the office-bearers, has always been a hindrance to
   secure a protection to the minority shareholders who do not get an

   increased with time. Recently, in the judgment, considering the

   majority shareholders of the Company, posing a threat to the position of

Title = {Comparative Evaluation of Cleaning Efficacy of Interdental Brush and

   Interventional Study},
Journal = {CUREUS JOURNAL OF MEDICAL SCIENCE},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {15},

Month = {SEP 29},
Abstract = {Background Plaque and dental caries are the primary agents causing
   gingival and periodontal diseases, eventually progressing into tooth
   loss. If oral hygiene practice is poor, plaque easily accumulates on the
   tooth surface, especially in interproximal areas. To maintain a good
   oral environment, it is mandatory to remove or at least reduce the
   percentage of plaque formation from the oral cavity. To achieve this,
   interdental aids should be used along with toothbrushes, as cleansing
   the teeth only with a toothbrush is not effective. Various interdental
   aids, like interdental brushes, floss, toothpicks, etc., are now
   available on the market. The objective of the current survey was to rate
   knowledge as well as make a comparison between the cleaning
   effectiveness of interdental brushes and interdental floss to determine
   which was better at reducing plaque accumulation and, subsequently,
   dental caries. The survey was accessed by measuring individual plaque
   and gingival index before and after using interdental cleaning
   aids.Methodology The objective of the survey was to evaluate and analyze
   the efficiency of interdental brushes and interdental floss in
   maintaining oral hygiene among orthodontic patients residing in the
   Vidarbha region. After receiving approval from the Ethical Committee
   DMIHER(DU)/IEC/2023/721, a study was conducted over a 30-day period,
   focusing on a group of 100 individuals aged between 15 and 30 years, and
   their assessments were analyzed. The patient was briefed about the study
   and asked to make use of an interdental brush and interdental floss. The
   gingival index and plaque index were calculated on the same patients
   before and after the use of the interdental brush and interdental floss
   to determine which was better at reducing plaque accumulation on the
   surface of teeth. Descriptive analysis, unpaired for intergroup
   comparison, and paired T-tests for intragroup comparison were used. The
   software used was SPSS 24.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY) and GraphPad Prism
   7.0 (GraphPad Software, Inc., La Jolla, CA).Result Everyone's tooth
   surfaces naturally develop a thin layer of plaque biofilm, but the
   presence of heavy plaque deposits on teeth indicates poor dental
   hygiene, which can lead to various oral health issues. Failure to
   improve dental hygiene status can result in problems such as halitosis,
   gingival issues, periodontal disease, and eventually tooth loss.
   Dentists play a crucial role in raising awareness about these concerns
   among their patients and providing education on effective oral care
   practices, including the use of interdental aids in conjunction with
   toothbrushes. When comparing the effectiveness of interdental brushes
   and dental floss in removing plaque, interdental brushes have been found
   to be more efficient. They not only excel in plaque removal but also
   contribute to a reduction in gingival problems. The statistical analysis
   supports this, with a significant p-value of less than 0.01 for both the
   plaque index and gingival index when using interdental brushes,
   indicating their superior performance in maintaining oral
   health.Conclusion The study will help every individual improve their
   oral hygiene status with the help of an interdental aid and a
   toothbrush. This will reduce the chances of having gingival and
   periodontal diseases and eventually reduce the risk of tooth loss.},

Title = {Self-reported Use of Dental Floss over 13 Years: Relationship with
   Family Income, Mother's Age and Educational Level},
Journal = {ORAL HEALTH \& PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {14},
Number = {1},
Pages = {33-39},
Abstract = {Purpose: To determine whether family income, age and educational level
   of the mother of the family are associated with self-reported use of
   dental floss over a 13-year period in a city in southern Brazil.
   Materials and Methods: A comparison of two household surveys was carried
   out where mothers of the family were interviewed using a structured
   questionnaire in order to obtain demographic, behavioural and
   socioeconomic information. In total, 852 and 984 households were
   included in 1996 and 2009, respectively. Self-reported use of dental
   floss was assessed dichotomously (yes/no). Poisson regression models
   were fitted to study the association between sociodemographic variables
   with the use of dental floss. Proportion ratios (PR) and 95\% confidence
   intervals (95\% CI) were reported.
   Results: The proportion of dental floss use increased from 48\% to 59\%
   over 13 years. The probability of dental floss use increased 1.23 times
   from 1996 to 2009 (PR = 1.23; 95\% CI 1.13-1.34). Households with
   mothers >= 50 years old presented a 28\% lower probability of using
   dental floss than households with mothers <= 35 years old. In households
   with higher family income and higher educational level of the mother,
   probabilities of flossing were 90\% and 97\% higher.
   Conclusion: Family income, age and educational level of the mother of
   the family are associated with self-reported use of dental floss over 13
   years.},

Abstract = {The study is based on the analysis of experimental results and
   determination of the bone metabolism markers by histochemical and
   biochemical methods performed on animals. The animals were implanted
   biovitroceramics PAW-1 in the mandible in the form of spongy matrix
   composed of fluorhydroxyapatite and microcrystallized wollastonite in a
   glass matrix, elaborated by the company PONETI (Romania) and Geistlich
   Bio-Oss-Collagen in the form of block (a mixture of granules, 0.25-1mm
   in size) and 10\% fibers of porcine collagen. Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen
   is a natural mineral bone of bovine origin, comparable both chemically
   and structurally to the mineralized human bone. It has a spongy
   consistency that allows simple modeling, and collagen facilitates the
   adaptation of the material on the defect site. The biochemical blood
   analysis showed an increased activity of bone thermolabile alkaline
   phosphatase over 30 days, the maximum being reached over 60 days + 20\%
   (p< 0.05) from the beginning of the experiment. The activity of
   tartrate-resistant bone acid phosphatase, on the contrary, decreased
   veridically by 22\% over 60 days after implantation. Over 30 days after
   the beginning of the experiment under the action of the implanted
   material, the level of average molecules (AM) increased by 35\% (p <
   0.05), while nucleotide substances (NS) increased by 51\% (p < 0.05).
   Within 60 days after implantation, the values of these indices showed a
   decreasing tendency. The fact mentioned above denotes that their
   osteoregenerative action increases under the influence of implanted
   materials.},

Title = {A 3-Dimensional Approach for Analysis in Orthognathic Surgery-Using Free
   Software for Voxel-Based Alignment and Semiautomatic Measurement},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL SURGERY},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {76},
Number = {6},
Pages = {1316-1326},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Purpose: In orthognathic surgery, the repeatability of 3-dimensional
   (3D) measurements is limited by the need for manual reidentification of
   reference points, which can incorporate errors greater than 1 mm for
   every 4 repeated measurements. This report describes a semiautomatic
   approach to decrease the manual reidentification error. This study
   evaluated the repeatability of surgical outcome measurements using the
   semiautomatic approach. Furthermore, a step-by-step guide is provided to
   enable researchers and clinicians to perform the 3D analysis by
   themselves.
   Materials and Methods: Evaluating surgical outcome consists of 2 parts.
   First, the scans are aligned at the anterior cranial base. Second, a
   semiautomatic approach is used to place 3 dental reference points at
   exactly the same sites of the pre-and postoperative maxilla. Because the
   maxilla is repositioned during surgery but otherwise unaltered, the
   reference points should be identical if the pre-and postoperative scans
   are aligned at the maxilla. Therefore, the authors propose the insertion
   of reference points on the preoperative scan and then repositioning a
   copy of the preoperative reference points relative to the postoperative
   scan. To align the reference points on the postoperative scan, the hard
   palate is used as a mutual maxillary reference structure. A
   reproducibility test was performed in 10 participants by analyzing the
   difference between repeated measurements.
   Results: Repeated linear measurements differed by less than 0.1 mm along
   all 3 axes (standard deviations, < 0.1 mm). The 2 largest differences
   between repeated measurements were 0.33 mm along the superoinferior axis
   and 0.29 along the anteroposterior axis. Repeated rotational
   measurements differed by less than 0.1 degrees around all 3 axes
   (standard deviations, <= 0.1 degrees).
   Conclusion: The semiautomatic approach showed excellent linear and
   angular repeatability. The algorithm can be implemented in the clinical
   evaluation of orthognathic surgical outcome and postoperative relapse.

Title = {On the Relationship Between the Developer's Perceptible Race and
   Ethnicity and the Evaluation of Contributions in OSS},
Journal = {IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {48},
Number = {8},
Pages = {2955-2968},
Month = {AUG 1},
Abstract = {Context: Open Source Software (OSS) projects are typically the result of
   collective efforts performed by developers with different backgrounds.
   Although the quality of developers' contributions should be the only
   factor influencing the evaluation of the contributions to OSS projects,
   recent studies have shown that diversity issues are correlated with the
   acceptance or rejection of developers' contributions. Objective: This
   paper assists this emerging state-of-the-art body on diversity research
   with the first empirical study that analyzes how developers' perceptible
   race and ethnicity relates to the evaluation of the contributions in
   OSS. We also want to create awareness of the racial and ethnic diversity
   in OSS projects. Methodology: We performed a large-scale quantitative
   study of OSS projects in GitHub. We extracted the developers'
   perceptible race and ethnicity from their names in GitHub using the
   Name-Prism tool and applied regression modeling of contributions (i.e,
   pull requests) data from GHTorrent and GitHub. Results: We observed that
   (1) among the developers whose perceptible race and ethnicity was
   captured by the tool, only 16.56 percent were perceptible as Non-White
   developers; (2) contributions from perceptible White developers have
   about 6-10 percent higher odds of being accepted when compared to
   contributions from perceptible Non-White developers; and (3) submitters
   with perceptible non-white races and ethnicities are more likely to get
   their pull requests accepted when the integrator is estimated to be from
   their same race and ethnicity rather than when the integrator is
   estimated to be White. Conclusion: Our initial analysis shows a low
   number of Non-White developers participating in OSS. Furthermore, the
   results from our regression analysis lead us to believe that there may
   exist differences between the evaluation of the contributions from
   different perceptible races and ethnicities. Thus, our findings
   reinforce the need for further studies on racial and ethnic diversity in
   software engineering to foster healthier OSS communities.},

   supports our hypothesis that F/OSS development is moving ``up the

Title = {A Handheld Colorimeter for Remote and Onsite Recognition of Baking
   Levels at High Temperature - Pork Floss as a Case Study},
Journal = {FOOD ANALYTICAL METHODS},
Year = {2024},
Month = {2024 DEC 23},
Abstract = {Pork floss is a common dried meat product in Asia. The endpoint of the
   baking process is traditionally determined by subjective human experts
   and indirect temperature measurements, which can often result in
   unstandardized production. Current colorimeters are unavailable for
   onsite measurement due to limitations associated with contact
   measurement and environmental temperature. Instead of the abovementioned
   human experts and tabletop colorimeters, a handheld colorimeter was
   built based on the expertise of human specialists and utilizing a
   tabletop colorimeter and other optical steps. First, the selected
   samples were used to determine the upper and lower limits distinguishing
   light, medium, and heavy baking levels by using a tabletop colorimeter.
   Second, independent light sources and spectrometers were utilized to
   choose the characteristic and reference wavelengths at 450 and 830 nm,
   separately. Third, the handheld colorimeter, instead of human expert
   observation, was designed with functions such as distance sensing and
   Internet of Things capabilities. The baked index was derived from the
   calibration reflection and established statistical models. Here, the
   calibration reflection was defined by the normalized intensity at 450 nm
   relative to 830 nm, and statistical models were founded from the
   determined samples of upper and lower limits at 95-700 mm. The developed
   handheld colorimeter demonstrated high agreement rates of 96.84\% and
   93.86\% in separate comparisons with tabletop colorimeters and human
   experts, respectively. This work indicated the accurate and stable
   recognition of samples within two limits and overall. Field validation
   confirmed the performance of remote, economic, and onsite recognition
   against environmental temperature and noise.},

Abstract = {The anorganic bovine bone grafting materials have been widely used to
   fill bone defects in periodontal and maxillofacial surgery. The purpose
   of present study was to fully characterize our anorganic bone, InterOss
   (R), by physical and chemical methods and to compare it with another
   anorganic bone, Bio-Oss (R) that has been commercially distributed in
   dental bone graft substitute market since 1995. InterOss (R) anorganic
   bone had been successfully prepared by chemical treatment (NaOH and
   H2O2) and low temperature (350 degrees C) annealing process with an
   extremely low heating rate (<0.3 degrees C min(-1)). Commercially
   available Bio-Oss (R) anorganic bone was chosen for comparison. The
   physical and chemical analysis indicated that the pore structure,
   microstructure, phase structure, and chemical composition of InterOss
   (R) is substantially equivalent to that of Bio-Oss (R). The BET analysis
   also showed that the inner surface area of InterOss (R) is comparatively
   higher than that of Bio-Oss (R). Specially, the protein analysis showed
   that the content of residual protein of InterOss (R) is relatively lower
   than that of Bio-Oss (R). Based on an equivalency to Bio-Oss (R) in
   terms of physical and chemical characterization with both higher inner
   surface area and lower residual protein content, the InterOss (R) can be
   a promising candidate as dental bone grafting material in periodontal
   and maxillofacial surgery. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Journal = {ORAL HEALTH \& PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {8},

Pages = {185-194},
Abstract = {Purpose: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the
   recommendations relating to the use of approximal cleaning aids given by
   dental hygienists and dentists, the self-care practices in a Swedish
   population and the ability to remove dental plaque.
   Materials and Methods: A structured questionnaire was randomly
   distributed to 500 dental hygienists and 500 dentists and a similar
   questionnaire was distributed to 1000 randomly selected individuals,
   divided equally into the following age groups: 15 to 20, 21 to 40, 41 to
   60 and > 60 years. A clinical examination evaluating the ability to
   remove approximal dental plaque was also carried out in a total of 60
   regular users of approximal cleaning aids. Plaque was scored before and
   after cleaning with a toothpick, dental floss or an interdental brush.
   Results: The response rate was 82\%, 79\% and 68\% for the three groups.
   The results reveal that dental hygienists give more detailed information
   about a majority of the aspects that are related to the use of
   approximal cleaning aids compared with dentists (P < 0.01 or P < 0.001).
   The majority of the dental staff give recommendations to children and
   adolescents firstly to prevent dental caries and to older individuals to
   improve periodontal health. The use of different approximal cleaning
   aids on a daily basis varied with respect to age group (2\% to 42\%);
   dental floss dominated in the younger age groups and interdental brushes
   in the two oldest groups. In the clinical study, the largest plaque
   reduction was produced by the interdental brush (83\%), followed by
   toothpicks (74\%) and dental floss (73\%).
   Conclusions: The present study indicated the importance of individual
   recommendations related to the use of approximal cleaning aids.},

   water vapor permeability increased gradually and rose to only 0.99\%
   after 5 h, resulting in the water activity of FF at a low level (<=
   0.51) during the storage period. The TPP inside was released at a
   constant rate (<= 18.10\%) on the surface, and such a rate was
   accelerated in the simulated gastrointestinal environment, especially in
   intestine reaching 60.12\% after 5 h of digestion. Besides, the effect
   of NEF on the flavor was also evaluated and the contents of ketones,
   phenols, and pyrazines increased, which displayed a regulating effect on
   the overall flavor of FF by blocking the external moisture and
   suppressing the microorganism activity. In summary, the NEF effectively
   enhanced the flavor and taste of FF, controlled the release of TPP, and
   reduced the water activity during the storage, thereby extending the
   shelf life.},

Abstract = {The overwhelming basicity of all analysed surfaces strongly dependent on
   the choice of liquid triplet used for contact angle measurements and the
   negative values sometimes obtained for the square roots of the acid-base
   parameters can be summarized as the main problems arising from the
   application of the Good-van Oss-Chaudhury (GvOC) theory to the
   calculation of Lewis acid-base properties of polymer surfaces from
   contact angle data. This paper tries to account for these problems,
   namely: (1) the Lewis base, or electron donor component, is much greater
   than the Lewis acid or electron-acceptor component because of the
   reference values for water chosen in the original GvOC theory. A direct
   comparison of the acidic component with the basic one of the same
   materials has no meaning. A new reference scale for water which is able
   to overcome this problem is suggested. For the calculation of acid-base
   components, a best-fit approach is proposed which does not require any
   starting information about the liquids or polymers and can yield
   estimates of the acid-base parameters for both the liquids and the
   polymers involved; (2) the strong dependence of the value of the
   acid-base components on the three liquids employed is due to
   ill-conditioning of the related set of equations, an intrinsic and
   purely mathematical feature which cannot be completely cured by any
   realistic improvement in experimental accuracy. To reduce or eliminate
   the effect, one only needs a proper set of liquids, representative of
   all kinds of different solvents: (3) the negative coefficients appear as
   a simple consequence of measurement uncertainty, combined with the
   possible ill-conditioning of the equation set. We cannot exclude,
   however, that in some cases they could have a different origin.},

Title = {Effectiveness of dental floss in the management of gingival health: A
   6-month follow-up of a randomized controlled clinical trial},
Journal = {CLINICAL ORAL INVESTIGATIONS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {28},
Number = {6},
Month = {MAY 16},
Abstract = {Objectives To evaluate, (i) if subjects submitted to a structured oral
   hygiene training program (OHt) maintain adopted habits over 180 days
   without professional guidance; and (ii) in perspective whether flossing
   provides additional benefits to toothbrushing on gingival health.
   Materials and methods Seventy-five adult subjects showing approximately
   40\% proximal gingival bleeding were randomized to receive OHt (1
   session weekly over 8 weeks) using toothbrush and dental floss or
   toothbrush alone. The subjects were then followed over 180 days without
   professional guidance. Primary outcomes were mean interproximal Gingival
   Index (GI) and GI = 2 (gingival bleeding). Mixed linear models were used
   for the comparison between groups (p < 0.05). Results68 subjects
   received OHt, 48 subjects completed the 180-day follow-up. Subjects
   maintained adequate oral hygiene routines. Besides a reduction in
   gingival inflammation, no alterations in gingival status were observed
   among groups, subjects additionally instructed to use dental floss
   showing a mean interproximal GI = 2 of 12.8 +/- 2.5 compared with 19.8
   +/- 2.2 for subjects limited to tooth brushing alone. Conclusions OHt
   intensive training promotes gingival health and maintenance lasting at
   least 6 months without professional supervision reinforcing important
   principles: (i) dental health professionals should dedicate time
   training and motivating their patients to reach adequate self-performed
   plaque control; and (ii) the adjunctive use of dental floss appears
   essential to reduce interproximal gingival inflammation in subjects with
   intact interdental papillae. Clinical relevance Dentists need to invest
   time in training/motivating/engage their patients to achieve adequate
   OH; adjunct flossing in subjects with papilla filling the interdental
   space appears essential to reach and maintain gingival health.

Title = {Ecohydrological consequences of tree removal in an urban park evaluated

Journal = {SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {655},
Pages = {1495-1504},
Month = {MAR 10},
Abstract = {With ongoing global climate change and an increasingly urbanized
   population, the importance of city parks and other forms of urban
   vegetation increases. Trees in urban parks can play an important role in
   mitigating runoff and delivering other ecosystem services. Park
   managers, E-NGOs, citizen scientists and others are increasingly called
   upon to evaluate the possible consequences of changes in park management
   such as, e.g., tree removal. Here, we present an unorthodox approach to
   hydrological modelling and its potential use in local policy making
   regarding urban greenery. The approach consists of a minimalist field
   campaign to characterize vegetation and soil moisture status combined
   with a novel model calibration using freely available data and software.
   During modelling, we were able to obtain coefficients of determination
   (R-2) of 0.66 and 0.73 for probe-measured and simulated soil moisture
   under tree stand and park lawn land covers respectively. The results
   demonstrated that tree cover had a significant positive effect on the
   hydrological regime of the locality through interception, transpiration
   and effects on soil moisture. Simulations suggested that tree cover was
   twice as effective at mitigating runoff than park lawn and almost seven
   times better than impervious surfaces. In the case of a potential
   replacement of tree vegetation in favour of park lawn or impervious
   surfaces an increase in runoff of 14\% and 81\% respectively could be
   expected. The main conclusion drawn from our study was that such an
   approach can be a very useful tool for supporting local decision-making
   processes as it offers a freely available, cheap and relatively
   easy-to-use way to describe the hydrological consequences of landcover
   change (e.g., tree removal) with sufficient accuracy. (C) 2018 The

Abstract = {Thermodynamic acidity constants (acid or acid-base dissociation
   constants, sometimes called also as ionization constants) and limiting
   ionic mobilities (both of them at defined temperature, usually 25
   degrees C) are the fundamental physicochemical characteristics of a weak
   electrolyte, that is, weak acid or weak base or ampholyte. We introduce
   a novel method for determining the data of a weak electrolyte by the
   nonlinear regression of effective electrophoretic mobility versus buffer
   composition dependence when measured in a set of BGEs with various pH.
   To correct the experimental data for zero ionic strength we use the
   extended Debye-Huckel model and Onsager-Fuoss law with no
   simplifications. Contrary to contemporary approaches, the nonlinear
   regression is performed on limiting mobility data calculated by
   PeakMaster's correction engine, not on the raw experimental mobility
   data. Therefore, there is no requirement to perform all measurements at
   a constant ionic strength of the set of BGEs. We devised the computer
   program AnglerFish that performs the necessary calculations in a
   user-friendly fashion. All thermodynamic pKa values and limiting
   electrophoretic mobilities for arbitrarily charged substances having any
   number of ionic forms are calculated by one fit. The user input consists
   of the buffer composition of the set of BGEs and experimentally measured
   effective mobilities of the inspected weak electrolyte.},

Abstract = {Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-flight (MALDI-ToF)
   MS is a popular method to analyze glycans released from proteins, cell
   lines, and tissue samples. Chemical modification of glycans
   (derivatization) can enhance ionization, enable semi-quantitation, and
   assist in linkage identification. However, the mass changes incurred by
   novel and more recently developed derivatizations are not accommodated
   by most spectral assignment programs, necessitating manual assignment
   which increases both the difficultly and the likelihood of error.
   AssignMALDI is a software tool designed to create glycan databases with
   customized derivatizations (labels) and automatically assign glycan
   masses in MALDI-TOF spectra using the new database. It can also average
   peak intensities across multiple spectra and prepare publication-ready
   assignment tables. To make it easy to use with different platforms, all
   input files and most output files are in text format. An interactive
   display enables users to inspect and edit peak assignments prior to

   CO3-center dot, O-1(2) and the triplet states of chromophoric dissolved
   organic matter, (CDOM)-C-3{*}), water chemistry (nitrate, nitrite,
   bicarbonate, carbonate, bromide and dissolved organic carbon, DOC), and
   water depth (more specifically, the optical path length of sunlight in
   water). It applies to well-mixed surface water layers, including the
   epilimnion of stratified lakes, and the output data are average values
   over the considered water column. Based on intermediate formation yields
   from the parent compound via the different photochemical pathways, the
   software can also predict intermediate formation kinetics and overall
   yield. APEX is based on a photochemical model that has been validated
   against available field data of pollutant phototransformation, with good
   agreement between model predictions and field results. The APEX software
   makes allowance for different levels of knowledge of a photochemical
   system. For instance, the absorption spectrum of surface water can be
   used if known, or otherwise it can be modelled from the values of DOC.
   Also the direct photolysis quantum yield can be entered as a detailed
   wavelength trend, as a single value (constant or average), or it can be
   defined as a variable if unknown. APEX is based on the free software
   Octave. Additional applications are provided within APEX to assess the
   sigma-level uncertainty of the results and the seasonal trend of
   photochemical processes.},

   reports from vertical chin augmentation to pseudoarthrosis treatment},
Journal = {FRONTIERS OF ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL MEDICINE},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {5},
Month = {SEP 10},
Abstract = {Background: The evolution of maxillofacial surgery is clear. With
   advances in digital planning, surgical techniques, orthognathic surgery
   becomes increasingly safe, however, still a physiological factor that
   challenges the surgeon: bone repair. The success of orthognathic
   surgeries, in addition to planning and correct execution, depends on the
   repair process and for that it is essential to maintain stability
   between the bone bases, which becomes a challenge in large movements.
   The use of biomaterials in orthognathic surgeries is not recent, in the
   70s they were already used as a way to promote stability of movements
   and over time, biomaterials are being improved also to accelerate the
   process of bone repair, decreasing the chances of pseudoarthrosis and
   non-union. Bio-Oss (R) Collagen is a combination of purified cancellous
   natural bone mineral granules (Bio-Oss (R)) and 10\% collagen fibres in
   a block form and is sterilized by gamma-irradiation. The collagen
   facilitates handling of the graft particles and acts to hold the Bio-Oss
   (R) Collagen at the desired place. The consistency of this material
   readily allows it to take the shape of the defect. Case Description: We
   herein reported two cases that used autogenous and Bio-Oss (R) Collagen
   in orthognathic surgeries to chin augmentation and pseudoarthrosis
   treatment after orthognathic surgery; and discussed their advantages and
   indications. Conclusions: Both cases demonstrate that, the use of
   osteotomy techniques and adequate osteosynthesis, associated with the
   grafts can minimize complications and promote less morbidity in the
   surgical procedure.},

   codebases},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {157},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Since the appearance of the C programming language and later C++, a
   plethora of libraries have been developed in both languages.
   Unfortunately, discovering such Open Source Software (OSS) components
   efficiently is not always an easy task. Nonetheless, recent advancements
   in OSS technologies present an opportunity to improve the status quo. In
   this paper, we introduce a prototype framework, which utilizes the Rust
   and JavaScript programming languages, as well as their respective
   ecosystems, alongside the WebAssembly state-of-the-art Web standard, for
   achieving boosted exposure for hard-to-find C/C++ OSS components, by
   taking advantage of their package discovery and delivery channels. By
   demonstrating how this system works, we show that this methodology is
   capable of increasing the exposure of such libraries, and providing a
   modernized stage for further development and maintenance. Provided
   metrics exhibit a more than twofold increase in downloads for a
   re-packaged library, superior discoverability compared to standard
   public OSS code repositories, as well as evidence that Web browser
   vendors invest heavily in optimizing the underlying runtime. (C) 2019

Title = {REGOMA-OSS: a large, Italian, multicenter, prospective, observational
   study evaluating the efficacy and safety of regorafenib in patients with
   recurrent glioblastoma},

Abstract = {Background: In the randomized phase II REGOMA trial, regorafenib showed
   promising activity in patients with recurrent glioblastoma. We conducted
   a large, multicenter, prospective, observational study to confirm the
   REGOMA data in a real-world setting. Patients and methods: The major
   inclusion criteria were histologically confirmed diagnosis of
   glioblastoma according to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2016
   classification and relapse after radiotherapy with concurrent/adjuvant
   temozolomide treatment, good performance status {[}Eastern Cooperative
   Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS 0-1)] and good liver
   function. Regorafenib was administered at the standard dose of 160
   mg/day for 3 weeks on/1 week off. Brain magnetic resonance imaging was
   carried out within 14 days before starting regorafenib and every 8-12
   weeks. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). The secondary
   endpoints were progression -free survival (PFS), objective response
   rate, disease control rate (DCR), safety and health-related quality of
   life. The Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria were
   used for response evaluation and Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse
   Events (CTCAE) version 5 for assessment of adverse events (AEs).
   Results: From September 2020 to October 2022, 190 patients with
   recurrent glioblastoma were enrolled from 30 cancer centers in Italy:
   their median age was 58.5 years {[}interquartile range (IQR) 53-67
   years], 68\% were male and 85 (44.7\%) were in optimal clinical
   condition (ECOG PS 0). The number of patients taking steroids at
   baseline was 113 (60\%); the second surgery was carried out in 39
   (20.5\%). O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) was methylated
   in 80 patients (50.3\%) and 147 (92.4\%) of the patients analyzed had
   isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wild type. The median follow-up period
   was 20 months (IQR 15.6-25.5 months). The median OS was 7.9 months
   ({[}95\% confidence interval (CI) 6.5-9.2 months] and the median PFS was
   2.6 months (95\% CI 2.3-2.9 months). Radiological response was partial
   response and stable disease in 13 (7.3\%) and 26 (14.6\%) patients,
   respectively, with a DCR of 21.9\%. The median number of regorafenib
   cycles per patient was 3 (IQR 2.0-4.0). Grade 3-4 drug-related adverse
   events were reported in 22.6\% of patients. A dose reduction due to AEs
   was required in 36\% of patients. No deaths were considered as
   treatment-related AEs. Conclusions: This large, real -world
   observational study showed similar OS with better tolerability of
   regorafenib in patients with relapsed glioblastoma compared with the
   REGOMA study.},

Title = {Attributes of Bio-Oss<SUP>®</SUP> and Moa-Bone<SUP>®</SUP> graft
   materials in a pilot study using the sheep maxillary sinus model},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF PERIODONTAL RESEARCH},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {53},
Number = {1},
Pages = {80-90},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Background and ObjectiveThe aim of this pilot study was to characterize
   surface morphology and to evaluate resorption and osseous healing of two
   deproteinated bovine bone graft materials after sinus grafting in a
   large animal model.
   Material and MethodsSurfaces of a novel particulate bovine bone graft,
   Moa-Bone((R)) were compared with Bio-Oss((R)) using scanning electron
   microscopy. Six sheep then had maxillary sinus grafting bilaterally,
   covered with BioGide((R)). Grafted maxillae were harvested after 4, 6
   and 12weeks. Healing was described for half of each site using
   resin-embedded ground sections. For the other half, paraffin-embedded
   sections were examined using tartrate resistant acid phosphatase
   staining for osteoclast activity, runt-related transcription factor2
   immunohistochemistry for pre-osteoblasts and osteoblasts and
   proliferating cell nuclear antigen for proliferative cells.
   ResultsMoa-Bone((R)) had a smoother, more porous fibrous structure with
   minimal globular particles compared with Bio-Oss((R)). After 4weeks,
   woven bone formed on both grafts and the Moa-Bone((R)) particles also
   showed signs of resorption. After 12weeks, Moa-Bone((R)) continued to be
   resorbed, however Bio-Oss((R)) did not; both grafts were surrounded by
   maturing lamellar bone. Moa-Bone((R)) was associated with earlier
   evidence of runt-related transcription factor 2-positive cells.
   Moa-Bone((R)) but not Bio-Oss((R)) was associated with strong tartrate
   resistant acid phosphatase-positive osteoclasts on the graft surface
   within resorption lacunae at both 4 and 6weeks post-grafting.
   ConclusionBoth materials supported osseous healing and maturation
   without inflammation. Moa-Bone((R)) showed marked osteoclast activity
   after 4 and 6weeks and demonstrated positive attributes for grafting, if
   complete remodeling of the graft within the site is desired. Further
   optimization of Moa-Bone((R)) for maxillofacial applications is
   warranted.},

Title = {A novel method for signal labeling and precise location in a variable
   parameter milling process based on the stacked-BiLSTM-CRF and FLOSS},
Journal = {ADVANCED ENGINEERING INFORMATICS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {55},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Unlabeled time series signals collected during manufacturing typically
   have low value density and must be labeled and intercepted according to
   the specific application scenario. During variable-parameter milling,
   particularly high-precision machining, machining parameters vary, and
   associated discrepancies in vibration signals are small. In this
   scenario, signal features that are extracted by hand or via deep
   learning methods cannot typically distinguish machining states via
   classification models. To solve this problem, a sequence labeling model
   developed using a stacked bidirectional long short-term memory network
   with a conditional random field layer (stacked-BiLSTM-CRF) is proposed
   in this study to automatically label and intercept vibration signals.
   The stacked BiLSTM receives the shallow features obtained by the
   short-time Fourier transform of the vibration signals and then outputs
   the extracted deep features to capture the before and after dependence
   of the signals. The stacked BiLSTM is then extended by stacking a CRF
   layer to explicitly model the dependence of signal labels. In a more
   accurate labeling scenario, the fast low-cost online semantic
   segmentation algorithm (FLOSS) is used to acquire more fine-grained
   signal boundary locations after obtaining the frame-level signal label
   using the stacked BiLSTM-CRF model. In addition, to evaluate model
   performance, a novel evaluation index for signal labeling is proposed.
   The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method are verified
   using the vibration signals collected from variable parameter cutting
   experiments, and results show that the proposed model achieves the best
   labeling performance of tested methods in nearly all scenarios.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF VICTORIAN CULTURE},

Pages = {26-52},
Abstract = {This paper brings together two related areas of debate in the latter
   half of the nineteenth century. The first concerns how the courtship
   plot of the nineteenth-century novel responded to, and helped to shape,
   scientific ideas of sexual competition and selection. In The Mill on the
   Floss (1860), George Eliot strikingly prefigures Darwin's later work on
   sexual selection, drawing from her own extensive knowledge of the wider
   debates within which evolutionary theory developed. Maggie Tulliver's
   characterisation allows Eliot to explore the ethical complexities raised
   by an increasingly powerful scientific naturalism, where biology is seen
   to be embedded within morality in newly specific ways. The second strand
   of the paper examines the extension of scientific method to human mind
   and motivation which constituted the new psychology. It argues that
   there are crucial continuities of long-established ethical and religious
   ideas within this increasingly naturalistic view of human mind and
   motivation. The contention that such ideas persist and are transformed,
   rather than simply jettisoned, is illustrated through the example of
   Thomas Henry Huxley's 1874 essay on automata. Turning finally to focus
   on Olive Schreiner's Undine (1929) and From Man to Man (1926), the paper
   explores the importance of these persistent ethical and religious ideas
   in two novels which remained unpublished during her lifetime. It argues
   that they produce both difficulty and opportunity for imagining love
   plots within the context of increasingly assertive biological and
   naturalistic accounts of human beings.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF HARD TISSUE BIOLOGY},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {27},
Number = {1},
Pages = {79-83},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {The value of using the xenogeneic bone substitute Bio-Oss (R) and a
   collagen membrane for guided bone regeneration (GBR) was evaluated.
   Five-millimeter bone defects were created in the cranial bones of 15,
   15-week-old, male Sprague-Dawley rats, five of which were left unfilled
   (Group A), five were filled with Bio-Oss (R) (Group B), and five were
   filled with Bio-Oss (R) and a collagen membrane (Group C). They were
   evaluated by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) Weeks 8 after bone
   defect creation. The animals were euthanized in Week 8, and tissue
   samples were taken. The sampled tissue was evaluated by the Kawamoto
   technique for preparing nondecalcified frozen sections. On micro-CT,
   radiopacities in the bone defects were evident in Groups B and C, but
   not in Group A. The amount of radiopacity tended to be greater in Group
   C than in Group B. Histologically, no new bone formation was observed in
   Group A. In Groups B and C, new bone formation around the Bio-Oss (R)
   was apparent and some osteoblastic cells were observed along the new
   bone. The Bio-Oss (R) was not absorbed up to Week 8, suggesting that it
   may be a potential bone regeneration scaffold. The combined use of a
   collagen membrane anchored the Bio-Oss (R) in close contact with the
   cranial bone, suggesting that it may help create a favorable environment
   for bone formation. The combination of Bio-Oss (R) and a collagen
   membrane in GBR may be useful for bone defect regeneration.},

Journal = {MOLECULES},

Abstract = {In the current study, a simple in silico approach using free software
   was used with the experimental studies to optimize the antiproliferative
   activity and predict the potential mechanism of action of
   pyrrolizine-based Schiff bases. A compound library of 288 Schiff bases
   was designed based on compound 10, and a pharmacophore search was
   performed. Structural analysis of the top scoring hits and a docking
   study were used to select the best derivatives for the synthesis.
   Chemical synthesis and structural elucidation of compounds 16a-h were
   discussed. The antiproliferative activity of 16a-h was evaluated against
   three cancer (MCF7, A2780 and HT29, IC50 = 0.01-40.50 mu M) and one
   normal MRC5 (IC50 = 1.27-24.06 mu M) cell lines using the MTT assay. The
   results revealed the highest antiproliferative activity against MCF7
   cells for 16g (IC50 = 0.01 mu M) with an exceptionally high selectivity
   index of (SI = 578). Cell cycle analysis of MCF7 cells treated with
   compound 16g revealed a cell cycle arrest at the G(2)/M phase. In
   addition, compound 16g induced a dose-dependent increase in apoptotic
   events in MCF7 cells compared to the control. In silico target
   prediction of compound 16g showed six potential targets that could
   mediate these activities. Molecular docking analysis of compound 16g
   revealed high binding affinities toward COX-2, MAP P38 alpha, EGFR, and
   CDK2. The results of the MD simulation revealed low RMSD values and high
   negative binding free energies for the two complexes formed between
   compound 16g with EGFR, and CDK2, while COX-2 was in the third order.
   These results highlighted a great potentiality for 16g to inhibit both
   CDK2 and EGFR. Taken together, the results mentioned above highlighted
   compound 16g as a potential anticancer agent.},

   difference between averages was 8 cm. For the discrepancies sample
   between DEMs, the amplitude was 9 cm, average of 2 cm, estimate accuracy
   of 4 cm and RMS equal to 3 cm. In the volumetric comparison, we obtained
   the amount of 800.6 m(3) with reference data and 806.4 m(3) with the GPR
   data, resulting in a 1\% difference between models. We conclude that for
   a reservoir built in reinforced concrete, depths ranging from 3 to 3.5
   meters, the survey of the bottom relief employing a GPR showed promising
   results and a DEM with an estimate accuracy of 4 cm and discrepancies
   that may reach 9 cm.},

   and identify the influence on services. We investigated an interworking
   mechanism; based on a web service interface between an inventory and
   fault management systems and developed prototypes of them as part of an
   operation support system (OSS), which is capable of managing not only a
   core network and a metro ring network, but also a customer network. By
   introducing a hierarchical circuit model in the inventory management
   system and the proposed scanning algorithm over multiple layers and
   domains implemented in the fault management system, our developed root
   cause analysis was successfully verified using the testbed network
   environment; indicating relatively fast and scalable operation.},

Abstract = {This study evaluated biological compatibility and antibacterial activity
   of a bone substitute material consisting of silver-doped hydroxyapatite
   (AgHA) and Bio-Oss((R)) with different mixture ratios in vitro and
   investigated its antibacterial mechanism. AgHA was synthesized by a
   chemical precipitation method. After characterization, AgHA was mixed
   with Bio-Oss((R)) at three ratios: 1:1, 1:2, and 1:4 by weight. Then,
   Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) and Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) were used
   to test the antibacterial activity of the mixture. Human periodontal
   ligament fibroblasts and rat bone marrow stromal cells were selected for
   cytocompatibility experiments. According to results, the peak value of
   the size of the AgHA was concentrated in the 100-200 nm range, and AgHA
   particles consisted of short rods. It was confirmed that the structure
   of AgHA was similar to that of standard hydroxyapatite. All three
   mixture ratios exhibited obvious antimicrobial properties, which
   increased with increasing AgHA. According to the effects on the
   expression of bacterial virulence genes, groups 1:1 and 1:2 both
   negatively affected Pg and Fn more significantly than group 1:4.
   Cytotoxicity experiments showed that 1:1 caused little cytotoxicity,
   while groups 1:2 and 1:4 exerted no significant cytotoxicity.
   Considering its biological compatibility and antibacterial activity,
   group 1:2 is the most recommended. (c) 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J

Title = {Validation of two complementary oral-health related quality of life
   indicators (OIDP and OSS 0-10) in two qualitatively distinct samples of
   the Spanish population},
Journal = {HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE OUTCOMES},
Year = {2008},
Volume = {6},
Month = {NOV 18},
Abstract = {Background: Oral health-related quality of life can be assessed
   positively, by measuring satisfaction with mouth, or negatively, by
   measuring oral impact on the performance of daily activities. The study
   objective was to validate two complementary indicators, i.e., the OIDP
   (Oral Impacts on Daily Performances) and Oral Satisfaction 0-10 Scale
   (OSS), in two qualitatively different socio-demographic samples of the
   Spanish adult population, and to analyse the factors affecting both
   perspectives of well-being.
   Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed, recruiting a Validation
   Sample from randomly selected Health Centres in Granada (Spain),
   representing the general population (n = 253), and a Working Sample (n =
   561) randomly selected from active Regional Government staff, i. e.,
   representing the more privileged end of the socio-demographic spectrum
   of this reference population. All participants were examined according
   to WHO methodology and completed an inperson interview on their oral
   impacts and oral satisfaction using the OIDP and OSS 0-10 respectively.
   The reliability and validity of the two indicators were assessed. An
   alternative method of describing the causes of oral impacts is
   presented.
   Results: The reliability coefficient (Cronbach's alpha) of the OIDP was
   above the recommended 0.7 threshold in both Validation and Occupational
   samples (0.79 and 0.71 respectively). Test-retest analysis confirmed the
   external reliability of the OSS (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient,
   0.89; p < 0.001) Some subjective factors (perceived need for dental
   treatment, complaints about mouth and intermediate impacts) were
   strongly associated with both indicators, supporting their construct and
   criterion validity. The main cause of oral impact was dental pain.
   Several socio-demographic, behavioural and clinical variables were
   identified as modulating factors.
   Conclusion: OIDP and OSS are valid and reliable subjective measures of
   oral impacts and oral satisfaction, respectively, in an adult Spanish
   population. Exploring simultaneously these issues may provide useful
   insights into how satisfaction and impact on well-being are constructed.},

Abstract = {Glutamate is the major excitatory transmitter in the mammalian central
   nervous system (CNS), exerting its effects through both ionotropic and
   metabotropic glutamate am receptors. The metabotropic glutamate
   receptors (mGlus) belong to family C of the G-protein-coupled receptors
   (GPCRs). The eight mGlus identified to date are classified into three
   groups based on their structure, preferred signal transduction
   mechanisms, and pharmacology (group I: mGlu(1) and mGlus; group II:
   mGlu(2) and mGlu(3); group III: mGlu(4), mGlu(6), mGlu(7), and mGlu(8)).
   Noncompetitive antagonists, also known as negative allosteric modulators
   (NAMs), of mGlus offer potential therapeutic applications in diseases
   such as pain, anxiety, gastresophageal reflux disease (GERD),
   Parkinson's disease (PD), fragile X syndrome, and addiction. The
   development of structure activity relationships (SAR) in a
   (3-cyano-5-fluorophenyl)biaryl series using our functional cell-based
   assay is described in this communication. Further characterization of a
   selected compound,
   3-fluoro-(5-(2-methylbenzo{[}d]thiazol-5-yl)benzonitrile, in additional
   cell based assays as well as in vitro assays designed to measure its
   metabolic stability and protein binding indicated its potential utility
   as an in vivo tool. Subsequent evaluation of the same compound in a
   pharmacokinetic study using intraperitoneal dosing in mice showed good
   exposure in both plasma and brain samples. The compound was efficacious
   in a mouse marble burying model of anxiety, an assay known to be
   sensitive to mGlus antagonists. A new operant model of addiction termed
   operant sensation seeking (OSS) was chosen as a second behavioral assay.
   The compound also proved efficacious in the OSS model and constitutes
   the first reported example of efficacy with a small molecule mGlu(5) NAM
   in this novel assay.},

   Experimental and, to a lesser extent, rigorous simulation papers

Abstract = {ObjectivesThe objectives of this study were to examine the associations
   between acculturation and dental floss, regular dental visits and unmet
   dental care needs among Asian Americans, as well as the moderating
   effects of these associations.MethodsThis study analysed national
   representative samples from the National Health and Nutrition
   Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2018. A total of 2763 Asian Americans
   aged 20 and older were included in this analysis. The primary predictor,
   acculturation score, was determined by three questions: (i) language
   spoken at home (higher score for English), (ii) country of birth (higher
   score for United States) and (iii) length of time in the United States.
   Dental floss use, dental visits and unmet dental care needs were
   included as outcomes in this study. Descriptive statistics and logistic
   regressions were used to analyse the samples.ResultsAcculturation was
   significantly associated with dental health behaviours: Individuals with
   higher levels of acculturation were more likely than less acculturated
   individuals to use dental floss (81.0\% vs. 63.9\%, respectively) and
   visit the dentist regularly (76.7\% vs. 66.9\% respectively). Insurance
   status moderated the association between acculturation and dental
   visits: Acculturation was significantly associated with dental visits in
   the past year among insured individuals (OR = 1.70, 95\% CI: 1.29-2.23),
   but not among uninsured individuals. Unmet dental care needs were
   present in 11.1\% of participants. While costs and insurance were the
   top two determinants of access to care, individuals with and without
   insurance differed with regard to their third major reason for unmet
   dental care needs: Being `too busy' and not wanting to spend money on
   dental care.ConclusionsAmong the Asian population in the United States,
   those with high acculturation scores were more likely to engage in
   dental flossing and visit the dentist regularly compared to those Asians
   with lower acculturation scores. To encourage dental flossing and
   regular dental visits among Asians with lower acculturation scores,
   cultural adaptation and language accessibility suggests being
   considered. Future research is necessary to confirm the moderating
   effect of insurance status on the association between acculturation and
   regular dental visits. Additionally, our findings emphasize the impact
   of costs and insurance on access to dental care among Asians in the
   United States, highlighting the importance of future public health
   programmes in addressing these barriers.},

   resistive LIG sensor has a sensitivity of -0.0493 \%/degrees C, the
   linear fit R-square factors = 0.9973 across -40 degrees C to 125 degrees
   C. The capacitive humidity sensor achieves a normalized response of
   2260\% at 95\% relative humidity (RH). Our proposed AFE chip contains a
   hybrid folded-cascode Operational Amplifier (OPAMP) with 92 dB gain and
   12.5 MHz Gain Bandwidth Product (GBW), and a 14-bit 10 MHz Successive

Abstract = {Purpose: The objective of this study was to compare osteoconductivity
   and biodegradation properties of an in-house fabricated beta-tricalcium
   phosphate (b-TCP)-collagen composite with those of Bio-Oss Collagen (R)
   (Osteohealth, Shirley, NY, USA) using a rat calvarial critical-size
   defect model.
   Materials and Methods: b-TCP-collagen composite material was fabricated
   by mixing b-TCP granules having a particle size of 0.15 to 0.8 mm and
   75\% porosity, with bovine dermis-derived soluble collagen sponge. The
   dry weight ratio of b-TCP granules-to-collagen ratios was 4:1. Bio-Oss
   Collagen or the b-TCP-collagen composite was used to fill a 5.0
   mm-diameter calvarial defect in rats. The defects were evaluated by
   histological and histomorphological analyses of decalcified histological
   sections with hematoxylin and eosin staining 6 and 10 weeks,
   respectively, after surgery.
   Results: The defect implanted with the b-TCP composite contained
   immature bone structures with dense connective tissue in contrast to the
   abundant fibrous tissue, but no trabecular structure was observed within
   the defect implanted with Bio-Oss Collagen at 6 weeks postoperatively.
   Eventually, the defect filled with the b-TCP composite was covered with
   dense, continuous, mature bone tissue with complete replacement of the
   graft material. However, in defects filled with Bio-Oss Collagen, only
   dense connective tissue, containing limited amounts of immature
   trabecular bone and abundant remnant Bio-Oss particles, was observed.
   Histomorphological analysis revealed that the b-TCP composite caused
   greater tissue augmentation with a larger volume of bone tissue observed
   in the defect and greater bioabsorption of remnant material than Bio-Oss
   Collagen.
   Conclusion: These results indicated that the b-TCP composite has greater
   osteoconductivity and better biodegradation properties than Bio-Oss
   Collagen; these properties of the b-TCP-collagen composite complimented
   bone formation and remodeling.},

The results indicate that KD and SD mainly attract rural voters, while L, MP, M, and V primarily attract urban residents. Individuals with certain characteristics are likelier to choose specific types of residential areas and have political preferences typical for their area of choice. This suggests a geographical sorting of different groups into rural and urban areas and a geographic political divergence (in support of SD, KD) and convergence (in support of C, S, L, M) in party preferences.},

One of the areas of study with scarce literature is linked with the impact of the Information and Communication Technologies based on collaborative environments, such as Free and Open Source Software, on the spread of the Collaborative Economy. Some questions are raised, such as: (1) To what extent do organizations linked with Collaborative Economy make use of Free and Open Source Software?, (2) What are the incentives that motivate the implementation of Free and Open Source Software in Collaborative Economy companies?, (3) What use do Collaborative Economy companies give to Free and Open Source Software?, and (4) Is there a greater use of Free and Open Source Software expected for the coming years among these organizations? To answer these questions, a study based on the Delphi method has been designed. To this end, a panel of 15 high-level experts in the field was formed. From the consensus of the experts, a significant role for Free and Open Source Software in the different collaborative components and industries is evident, with the current levels practically being maintained by the year 2025.},

In this study, we focus on open innovation processes among firms and radical circles and shed light on the related value capture mechanisms. We rely on a detailed qualitative case analysis of collaborations between firms and three radical circles (i.e., Slow Food, Memphis, and the Free Software Foundation). Our case studies highlight that the firms captured value from collaborating with these radical circles through developing internal assets (reputational, organizational, intellectual and human, and technological) and new business models. Starting from these insights, the study offers several contributions to open innovation research as well as interesting avenues for future inquiry into this topic.},

The authors draw on a case study of the ‘Heidi bug’ discovered during the development of the Mozilla Firefox web browser to examine how ‘gendered talk’ was (en)‐acted to facilitate ‘bricolage’ in an online work environment. Such gendered talks contain cultural references familiar to male developers. Though seemingly innocuous, such acts could be seen as a performance of gender that simply reflects the hegemonic heterosexual masculine culture manifested in an online virtual work space. The virtual work space therefore can be exclusive to those who shared the cultural references. Although it may not necessarily be ignorance or insensitivity of male developers, a more gender‐balanced, women‐friendly and inclusive workplace certainly would benefit from a more diverse environment. This article highlights the gendered aspect of software development through examining the language use and mainstream ‘bricolage’ practice, and establishes a compelling ground for enlarging the talent pool to include more women and integrating gender ethics (e.g., raising awareness of sensitive language and design approaches) into computer ethics education.},

The study proposes a theoretical framework, under the prism of which socio-economic, technological and institutional factors critical to eGovernment and OSS are revealed. The hypotheses are evaluated by means of an econometric model of simultaneous equations. In order to better gauge the results of the hypotheses, the model is evaluated over economic environments at different stages of development. Social development and OSS growth were found to be the most important facilitators for eGovernment maturity, across countries of all stages of development. Institutional quality, technological openness, freedom in press and the macro-economic environment exerted different weights of importance across different country groupings. Findings also suggest that technological infrastructure and innovation are important drivers for OSS growth across countries at all stages of development. Research results can provide useful input for research in eGov, as they open up new directions in the study of the relation with OSS.},

	abstract = {We reconstruct the dual network structure generated by the association between 72 contributors and 737 software bugs engaged during a full development cycle of the free/open source software project Epiphany. Estimates of structural parameters of Exponential Random Graph Models for two-mode networks reveal the structural logics shaping activities of collaborative problem solving. After controlling for contributor-specific and software bug-specific characteristics, we find that contributors ('problem solvers') tend to distribute their activity over multiple software bugs. At the same time, however, we find that software bugs ('problems') tend not to share multiple contributors. This dual tendency toward de-specialization and exclusivity is sustained by specific local network dependencies revealed by our analysis which also suggests possible organizational mechanisms that may be underlying the puzzling macro-structural regularities frequently observed, but rarely explained, in the production of open source software. By combining these mechanisms with the influence of contributors characterized by different levels of involvement in the project, we provide micro-level evidence of structural interdependence between 'core' and 'peripheral' members identified exclusively on the basis of their individual level of contribution to the project.

	abstract = {The immateriality of both commodities and labor, which is increasingly characteristic of contemporary capitalism at its hi-tech centers, has complicated drawing a hard distinction between productive and unproductive forms of labor. Drawing an overly technical distinction between these two categories of labor potentially overlooks some important aspects of the processes of capitalist reproduction, particularly the increasingly social character of labor, and as such, a broader definition must be considered. The labor engaged in the production of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) is illustrative of this need for further examination of the productive-unproductive distinction, for the fact that though FOSS, in some respects, appears tendentially anti-capitalist, in fact, it, and the immaterial labor driving it, has essentially been fully subsumed in the apparatus of capital accumulation.

The author theorizes Free Software as a new form of property that is infecting capitalism like a virus, challenging the system of private property central to its dominant logic. Free Software can be produced by developers working for free in peer communities or in profit-oriented firms. The author explores the conditions under which Free Software is produced through peer versus market-based production, emphasizing the implications for constructing the Free Software market and the digital commons. The author identifies actors' motivations, the organizational structure of production, and financial resources as three factors shaping these conditions. The author focuses on the case of Ubuntu, a Free Software operating system that is available free of charge on the Internet. Ubuntu is produced by Canonical, a Free Software, market-based firm, through an intriguing combination of market-based and peer production that both embodies and transforms capitalist practices.

This approach is used to examine how F/OSS may contribute to a people-centred and development-oriented information society. Three questions are asked: (1) Is it helpful to view F/OSS as market or non-market production? (2) How is F/OSS distributed and marketed? (3) How does F/OSS rely on gendered labour? By analysing existing writings on F/OSS, it is concluded that market production should not be privileged over other modes of production; state intervention is required to ensure an equitable distribution of F/OSS; and gendered labour needs to be made visible in the F/OSS production.

	abstract = {Abstract              This paper addresses the application of observation to online settings with a special focus on observer roles. It draws on a study of online observation of a virtual community, i.e. an open source software (OSS) community. The paper examines general and specific advantages and disadvantages of the observer roles in online settings by relating these roles to the same roles assumed in offline settings. The study suggests that under the right circumstances online and offline observation may benefit from being combined as they complement each other well. Quality issues and factors important to elicit trustworthy observational data from online study settings, such as OSS communities, are discussed. A proposition is made concerning how threats to credibility and transferability in relation to online observation (i.e. lack of richness and detail, risk of misunderstandings) can be diminished, while maintaining the level of dependability (which is potentially high due to a greater degree of anonymity and "isolation" in online settings). The paper thus suggests that the less participative the researcher's online observer role is, the more s/he should consider introducing offline data collection techniques rather than adopting a more participative role in the observed online setting. This methodological discussion forms the basis for making a well-considered choice of online observer role rather than passively sliding into a role assigned by the setting. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

Three questions are asked: (1) Is it helpful to view F/OSS as market or non-market production? (2) How is F/OSS distributed and marketed? (3) How does F/OSS rely on gendered labour? By analysing existing writings on F/OSS, it is concluded that market production should not be privileged over other modes of production; state intervention is required to ensure an equitable distribution of F/OSS; and gendered labour needs to be made visible in the F/OSS production.

I demonstrate how F/OSS developers contest and specify the meaning of liberal freedom -- especially free speech -- through the development of legal tools and discourses within the context of the F/OSS project. I highlight how developers concurrently tinker with technology and the law using similar skills, which transform and consolidate ethical precepts among developers. I contrast this legal pedagogy with more extraordinary legal battles over intellectual property, speech, and software. I concentrate on the arrests of two programmers, Jon Johansen and Dmitry Sklyarov, and on the protests they provoked, which unfolded between 1999 and 2003. These events are analytically significant because they dramatized and thus made visible tacit social processes. They publicized the challenge that F/OSS represents to the dominant regime of intellectual property (and clarified the democratic stakes involved) and also stabilized a rival liberal legal regime intimately connecting source code to speech.

	abstract = {This paper is about the interaction between the human imagination and technology among a self-described 'community': that of developers of Free or Open Source Software. I argue that the moral imagination observable in this phenomenon can be understood with reference to its emergence around specific methods of technical production. Principles of openness, truth, freedom and progress, which are also understood as central to the technical production of good software, are reinforced (as a ethical orientation) by their contribution to making 'good' software. A reciprocal dynamic ensues in which better software is seen as dependent on particular social practices and ideologies while these practices and ideologies are given salience by their success in fostering valuable production. Processes key to the generation of this social form are examined before a number of key features of the practice of programming, such as its often combative and individualistic character, and an absence of women in developer communities, are considered in the light of the analysis.

While some technologies are inherently political, other technologies become politicized through competition among different groups and organizations. How do seemingly apolitical technologies become politicized? In this article, the author examines the case of the "circuit riders," a progressive technology movement in the United States that promotes information technology use among nonprofit and grassroots organizations, to show how a particular technology is politicized through field-level interactions. Applying and contributing to actor-network theory, the author finds that translation takes place as an organizational process by which actors associate the ideals of the technology in question with their political ideals and then attempt to enroll other actors to accept the resultant associations. Successful association depends on both discursive and organizational practices. [Reprinted by permission of Sage Publications Inc., copyright 2009.]},

This practice often renders the product superior to more centralized models such as those used in commercial software companies. How is such a phenomenon possible in a time where nothing seems to be acquirable save by purchase? Niels C. TAUBERT's book Productive Anarchy? Networks of Open Source Software Development aims at a sociological understanding of the prerequisites and conditions for the success of open source software. One of the conclusions of TAUBERT's book is that the process of open software development needs to be understood as adaptive and experimental. A continuous feedback between the context of production and the context of application is the basis for robust and successful software production. One of the surprising results of the book is that the most important requirement for this feedback process is a set of norms--neutrality, communism, disinterestedness, and universalism--norms that Robert MERTON associated with academic science in the 1940s. If TAUBERT is right that these norms are to be found outside the world of institutional science in open source software development projects today, then his case study can be seen as an indicator for a new form of knowledge production in the 21st century, where the social relevance and responsibility of a research process are keys to successful innovation. With this book, which deserves a wide readership, TAUBERT makes an important contribution to our understanding of the successful organization of technology development.

The analysis has four main parts: examining the key role of software as a technological infrastructure for diverse forms of globalization; conceptualizing the contradictory implications of three software business models for realizing the utopian potential of digital technology to develop forms of globalization from below; exploring how three free and open source software business models were put into practice by Red Hat, IBM and the Free Software Foundation; and analysing Brazilian software policy as a form of globalization from below that challenges the historical dominance of the global North and seeks to develop new forms of digital inclusion and digital culture.

Such movements for the political use and regulation of FLOSS mark a distinct turn in the objectives and work of FLOSS advocates, whose activities largely focused on the dissemination of FLOSS as a technological artifact. This paper investigates the network of diverse actors involved in promoting FLOSS legislation in Peru, one of the first nations where a movement for FLOSS legislation emerged. It emphasizes that crucial to the work of FLOSS' network actors is not their merely technological productivity, but their cultural and political productivity - that is, their ability to produce diverse body of meaning made both evident and mobile in narratives of FLOSS use and adoption.

	abstract = {Open source software is software designed to allow anyone to use and make changes in the software. This practice often renders the product superior to more centralized models such as those used in commercial software companies. How is such a phenomenon possible in a time where nothing seems to be acquirable save by purchase? Niels C. TAUBERT's book Productive Anarchy? Networks of Open Source Software Development aims at a sociological understanding of the prerequisites and conditions for the success of open source software. One of the conclusions of TAUBERT's book is that the process of open software development needs to be understood as adaptive and experimental. A continuous feedback between the context of production and the context of application is the basis for robust and successful software production. One of the surprising results of the book is that the most important requirement for this feedback process is a set of norms-neutrality, communism, disinterestedness, and universalism-norms that Robert MERTON associated with academic science in the 1940s. If TAUBERT is right that these norms are to be found outside the world of institutional science in open source software development projects today, then his case study can be seen as an indicator for a new form of knowledge production in the 21st century, where the social relevance and responsibility of a research process are keys to successful innovation. With this book, which deserves a wide readership, TAUBERT makes an important contribution to our understanding of the successful organization of technology development. References.

	abstract = {The ability to build solid and coherent software from spontaneous, sudden and evanescent involvement is viewed as an enigma by sociologists and economists. The internal heterogeneity of project contributors questions the functioning of collective action: how can commitments that are so dissimilar be put together? Our objective is to consider FLOSS communities as going concerns which necessitate a minimum of order and common, shared, social rules to function. Through an in-depth and diachronic analysis of the Spip project, we present two classical modes of social regulation: a control regulation centred on the product and an autonomous regulation reflecting the differentiated commitments. Our data shows that the meaning, value and legitimacy of contributors' involvements are defined and rated more collectively, through exchanges, judgments, and evaluations. A third regulation mode, called distributed community regulation and aimed at creating and transforming shared rules that produces recognition and stratification, is then presented.

	abstract = {In this paper we present empirical work detailing the engagement practices of a large FLOSS project, the Digital Business Ecosystem (DBE). In common with many other FLOSS projects, the DBE project focused on the development of infrastructural software components. Infrastructures and FLOSS software exhibit multiplicity: as objects they both change and stay the same. Whilst the implications of multiplicity with respect to infrastructure have been well-documented, with respect to FLOSS, they remain under-explored. Through examining how the DBE engaged new participants we were able to explore the nature of the FLOSS software object by asking the implied question: engagement with what? We draw on recent analysis by Law and Singleton to show how the innovative yet non-existent potentiality of the DBE was as significant to engagement as its steadily growing codebase. We argue that acknowledging the materiality and immateriality of the FLOSS software object has important consequences for management of, and engagement with, FLOSS projects.

	abstract = {Cybercrime-crime committed through the use of a computer-is a real and growing problem that costs governments, businesses, and individual computer users millions of dollars annually and that facilitates many of the same crimes committed in realspace, such as identity theft and the trafficking of child pornography, only on a larger scale. However, the current strategies deployed by law enforcement to combat cybercrime have proven ineffective. Borne out of traditional notions of criminal behavior, these strategies and tactics are often ill-suited to prevent or punish cybercrime, which often defies the traditional notions of criminal behavior bounded by the corporeal world such as scale and proximity. This Comment argues that a more effective methodology in the fight against cybercrime is to develop a model of community policing, in which the power to deter and prevent cybercrime is divested into the hands of individual computer users. One such strategy for achieving effective community policing against cybercrime is through the increased use of open-source software, software in which users are given access to the underlying source code and may make modifications to that source code in order to ameliorate vulnerabilities that may enable cybercrime. This Comment looks at the development of traditional community policing strategies and argues that the increased use of open source software-spurned by greater involvement by government and corporations-may be a more effective technique in the fight against cybercrime.

Starting with the Open Systems Movement in the late 1970s, which was driven by business strategic \& industrial policy interests \& complemented by a spirit of mutual support in professional communities, a social movement type of collective action has emerged which develops knowledge as a public good. Competent communities share the norms of the hacker culture \& cooperate in informal relations challenging the boundaries between private \& public goods. But the open source idea has also been transformed into a business strategy by companies who provide basic software products for free \& make money with complementary products \& services. 52 References.

The primary document under consideration is a position paper written by Bateson for the OSS in Nov 1944. outlining a number of methods \& strategies that US intelligence agencies might consider in the postwar period for gathering intelligence \& maintaining colonial order in India. This paper is discussed to highlight some of the largely undocumented work done by anthropologists during the war \& to understand why Bateson returned to his overall negative assessment of applied anthropology in the postwar period. 41 References.
