abstract = {Evaluating the quality of Open Source Software (OSS) on the basis of quantitative success indicators is critically important for project maintainers to assess their performance as well as for businesses and individuals to verify that the software meets their unique requirements. Owing to the unrestricted access to source code, version control information, and bug tracking database, a comprehensive study on the Development Process associated with an OSS project is feasible. In the present research study, a comparison framework has been developed to quantitatively assess and compare the quality of the Development Process of a multitude of OSS projects on the basis of various project dimensions. Five multi-criteria decision analysis techniques have been employed to apply the framework on ten OSS projects and the results are compared with an existing quality assessment model. The findings of the comparative analysis reveal that along with conforming to the results produced by the existing assessment model, the proposed framework provides an opportunity for a detailed analysis of the OSS projects, benefiting potential adopters in aligning their needs to the projects and aiding maintainers in strategic resource allocation to weaker areas of the project.},

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.},

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.},

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.},

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.},

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.},

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.},

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 = {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 Herzbergs 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 = {Social networking tools and visible information about developer activities on open source software (OSS) development platforms can leverage developers' social influence to attract more participation from their peers. However, the differential impacts of such social influence on developers' initial and sustained participation behaviors were largely overlooked in previous research. We empirically studied the impacts of two social influence mechanisms—wordofmouth (WOM) and observational learning (OL)—on these two types of participation, using data collected from a large OSS development platform called Open Hub. We found that action (OL) speaks louder than words (WOM) with regard to sustained participation. Moreover, project age positively moderates the impacts of social influence on both types of participation. For projects with a higher average workload, the impacts of OL are reduced on initial participation but are increased on sustained participation. Our study provides a better understanding of how social influence affects OSS developers' participation behaviors. It also offers important practical implications for designing software development platforms that can leverage social influence to attract more initial and sustained participation.},

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.},

Furthermore, these concerns are intensified when the OSS is to take part in critical sections of the evolved system.

abstract = {Agile software development methodology and DevOps, together, have helped the business to achieve agility and velocity in delivering time-to-market applications and services. Open-source software (OSS) and cloud technologies are taking up business innovation and DevOps at new heights. However, in the quest of agility and velocity, user data security and privacy assurance often get lower priority as they are perceived as a time-consuming activity requiring specialized people, process, and technology. We see this problem being addressed by integrating security in DevOps processes. Security for DevOps has been institutionalized as DevSecOps with practical considerations for a given business context. In this work, we proposed a conceptual security model, ADOC, to facilitate adopting DevSecOps for the business processes capitalizing OSS over the cloud. This work contributes towards the following to integrate continuous security in application and service delivery: (i) A continuous security conceptual framework proposal based on the requirements elicited from the analysis of challenges in adopting DevSecOps using OSS over the cloud. (ii) An integrationist security model, ADOC, based on the proposed continuous security conceptual framework, integrating development, security, and operation activities through automation of security controls using OSS over the cloud. (iii) A set of inter-working OSS tools for automation of the proposed security controls in ADOC workflow and practices. (iv) A set of metrics for performance measurement of the ADOC model. (v) Mapping of the solutions for the analyzed challenges using the proposed security controls, followed by a use case scenario to adopt the ADOC workflow and continuous practices. The ADOC transforms security being adhoc compliance-oriented activities into continuous assurance-oriented activities by codifying security controls into an automated delivery workflow. Its practical adoption enables businesses to deliver time-to-market security ready applications and services with accelerated velocity and sustainable agility in a cost-effective way.},

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 = {Corporations increasingly engage with open source software communities in the cocreation of software. This collaboration between corporate professionals and open source software community members is strikingly different from the early days of software development where forprofit 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 = {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 = {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.},

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.

Only a few empirical studies investigate how the choice of components is conducted in industrial practice. This is important to understand to tailor research solutions to the needs of the industry. Existing studies focus on the choice for off-the-shelf (OTS) components. It is, however, also important to understand the implications of the choice of alternative component sourcing options (CSOs), such as outsourcing versus the use of OTS. Previous research has shown that the choice has major implications on the development process as well as on the ability to evolve the system. The objective of this study is to explore how decision making took place in industry to choose among CSOs. Overall, 22 industrial cases have been studied through a case survey. The results show that the solutions specifically for CSO decisions are deterministic and based on optimization approaches. The non-deterministic solutions proposed for architectural group decision making appear to suit the CSO decision making in industry better. Interestingly, the final decision was perceived negatively in nine cases and positively in seven cases, while in the remaining cases it was perceived as neither positive nor negative.},

abstract = {Following the growing interest and concerns regarding the open source software (OSS) phenomenon among academics and practitioners, many studies have been conducted to understand the factors that influence OSS success. 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. Cependant, ces recherches se sontprincipalement concentrées sur des projets reconnus et de grande envergure, tels que Linux ou Apache. Une investigation des projets moins connus permettrait une compréhension plus complete et d'éviter un taux d'échec important des projets OSS. Cette étude investigue donc la combi- naison de trois facteurs : les interactions des utilisateurs et développeurs, la pénétration du marché et le stade de développement, afin d'observer leur impact sur la popularité des projets OSSpeu connus. Nous a vons pour cela développé un modele empirique de la popularité des OSS, et avons testé nos hypotheses sur 657projets de logiciel libre. Les résultats de cette recherche montrent que la combinaison des trois facteurs a un impact positif sur la popularité des OSS. De plus, contrairement aux études précédentes, nos résultats révelent également que les interactions entre utilisateurs et développeurs ont un rôle plus important que les activités reliées á la résolution de bugs dans la réussite des projets. Cette recherche propose une nouvelle maniere de mesurer la popularité d'un projet OSS et offrant ainsi aux organisations une meilleure compréhension.},

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.},

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.},

In this research, we advance on such studies through an integrated FLOSS evaluation-selection model with a risk-based decision-making approach. 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.},

Passive users play a critical role in the adoption and 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 hypotheses.},

abstract = {One of the recurrent themes in open source software research is to understand the impacts of various project characteristics on its success. Open source software (OSS) projects rely on voluntary participation of developers and tend to be continually in development. Hence, an important measure of success is the time it takes for an OSS project to release a stable version to its users. However, there is little research on this success measure and how the OSS characteristics enable or delay the progress towards stable release. In this study, we use survival analysis technique on open source project data to explore the impacts of OSS characteristics on the time it takes to release stable software versions. We find that when compared to the interest of developers in the project, interest of end-users has a greater positive effect on an OSS project progress towards stable release. Our findings also suggest that the use of C and C-like programming languages or a Weak-Copyleft license for the open source project negatively impact the projects time to reach stable status. In OSS projects less than 8 months since becoming public, the use of a Strong-Copyleft license positively affects the projects progress. One of the implications of our findings is that OSS project administrators should control software change requests or form smaller developer groups to better control the delays due to higher developer interest in their projects.

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 = {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).},

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.

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.},

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 = {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 = {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 = {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 = {We investigate how intellectual property rights (IPR) enforcement against developers and users of open source software (OSS) affects the success of related OSS projects. We hypothesize that when an IPR enforcement action is filed, user interest and developer activity will be negatively affected in two types of related OSS projects - those that display technology overlap with the OSS application in dispute and business projects that are specific to the disputed OSS platform. We examine two widely publicized lawsuits-SCO v. IBM and FireStar/DataTern v. Red Hat-using data from SourceForge.net. Our difference-in-difference estimates show that in the months following the filing of SCO v. IBM, OSS projects that exhibit high technology overlap with the disputed OSS experienced a 15\% greater decline in user interest and 45\% less developer activity than projects in the control group; OSS projects that are intended for business and specific to the disputed OSS platform had a 34\% greater decline in user interest and 86\% less developer activity than the control group. We find similar results following the filing of FireStar/DataTern v. Red Hat. Our results are also robust to a variety of robustness checks, including a falsification exercise and subsample analyses.

abstract = {This paper analyses the phenomenon of free and open source software (FOSS) in the light of Luc Boltanski and Ève 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 = {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. [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]},

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 = {In this article, we summarize a five-year US National Science Foundation funded study designed to investigate the factors that lead some open source projects to ongoing collaborative success while many others become abandoned. Our primary interest was to conduct a study that was closely representative of the population of open source software projects in the world, rather than focus on the more-often studied, high-profile successful cases. After building a large database of projects (n=174,333) and implementing a major survey of open source developers (n=1403), we were able to conduct statistical analyses to investigate over forty theoretically-based testable hypotheses. Our data firmly support what we call the conventional theory of open source software, showing that projects start small, and, in successful cases, grow slightly larger in terms of team size. We describe the "virtuous circle" supporting conventional wisdom of open source collaboration that comes out of this analysis, and we discuss two other interesting findings related to developer motivations and how team members find each other. Each of these findings is related to the sustainability of these projects.},

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 = {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 = {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 = {This paper uses a large data set of Free Open Source Software (FOSS) projects obtained from SourceForge.net to investigate survival factors at various stages of a FOSS project's lifecycle. It distinguishes FOSS projects that are still at the initial stage of development from those at the growth stage, and posits that the relative importance of the identified survival factors changes as FOSS projects evolve from one stage to the next. The results demonstrate the changing effect of factors over time affecting FOSS survival. Restrictive FOSS licenses and large internal and external networks are found to present advantages for projects that are at the initial stage, but the advantages dissipate as the projects move into the growth stage. Projects with high-quality external networks, greater levels of user/developer participation and service quality, and projects targeted at technical users have a higher likelihood of surviving at both stages. These findings show that a FOSS project team needs to be aware of the conditioning effect of time and focus on the appropriate mix of survival factors as the project moves from one stage to the next.

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.

Yet many unanswered questions exist regarding why certain FOSS projects succeed while others fail. Drawing on social capital theory and human agency theory, this study proposes that FOSS projects stand a better chance of success if they possess desirable social network capital and adopt effective strategies. It further argues that valuable social network capital and effective strategies produce greater returns together than they do alone. The results of an empirical analysis reveal significant positive interactions between social capital variables and human agency/strategy variables, highlighting the importance of complementarity between social network ties and strategies in shaping the outcome of FOSS projects.

abstract = {Open source software (OSS) is a social and economic phenomenon that raises fundamental questions about the motivations of contributors to information systems development. Some developers are unpaid volunteers who seek to solve their own technical problems, while others create OSS as part of their employment contract. For the past 10 years, a substantial amount of academic work has theorized about and empirically examined developer motivations. We review this work and suggest considering motivation in terms of the values of the social practice in which developers participate. Based on the social philosophy of Alasdair MacIntyre, we construct a theoretical framework that expands our assumptions about individual motivation to include the idea of a long-term, value-informed quest beyond short-term rewards. This motivation-practice framework depicts how the social practice and its supporting institutions mediate between individual motivation and outcome. The framework contains three theoretical conjectures that seek to explain how collectively elaborated standards of excellence prompt developers to produce high-quality software, change institutions, and sustain OSS development. From the framework, we derive six concrete propositions and suggest a new research agenda on motivation in OSS. [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.},

OSS projects evolve and transform over time; therefore success must be examined longitudinally over a period of time. In this research, we examine two measures of project success: project popularity and developer activity, of 283 OSS projects over a span of 3 years, in order to observe changes over time. A comprehensive research model of OSS success is developed which includes both extrinsic and intrinsic attributes. Results show that while many of the hypothesized relationships are supported, there were marked differences in some of the relationships at different points in time lending support to the notion that different factors need to be emphasized as the OSS project unfolds over time.

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 = {Despite a growing body of research on OSS production, much remains to be learned. One important issue concerns the measures of OSS project success and its determinants. In this paper, we empirically study the determinants of OSS success as measured by the number of subscribers and developers working on an OSS project. Furthermore, we demonstrate that our model forecasts these success measures more accurately as compared to a naive model. We find that OSS projects that develop software to work on Windows/UNIX/Linux operating systems, and developed using C or its derivative languages experience larger increase in subscribers and attract more developers than projects that do not have these characteristics. OSS projects with semi-restrictive licenses have fewer subscribers and attract fewer developers. Interestingly, OSS projects that accept financial donations and are targeted at IS/IT professionals have more subscribers than others, although these characteristics do not affect the developer base. The number of subscribers and developers increases with the age of the OSS project. Finally, the impact of developers on subscribers and subscribers on developers is positive and significant.

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 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 TAMs attributes also had some influence on OSS adoption.},

abstract = {Studies on open source software (OSS) have shown that the license under which an OSS is released has an impact on the success or failure of the software. In this paper, we model the relationship between an OSS developer's utility, the effort that goes into developing an OSS, his attitude towards the freedom to choose an OSS license, and the choice of OSS license. We find that the larger the effort to develop OSS, the more is the likelihood that the OSS license would be free from restrictions. Interestingly, the result holds even when all OSS developers prefer restrictive licenses or less-restrictive license. The results suggest that least-restrictive or non-copyleft license will dominate other types of OSS license when a large effort is required to develop derivative software. On the other hand, most-restrictive or strong-copyleft licenses will be the dominant license when minimal effort is required to develop the original OSS and the derivative software.

abstract = {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. 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. Following an initial systematic literature review to generate seed category data constructs, the authors 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.},

When the available open source stack and licensing options grow, so does the need to understand the interplay among licensing, sourcing decisions, and business goals. A model of license choice emphasizes different licenses and rationalizes the choice of an open source software (OSS) license. This is crucial for smaller companies and start-ups that don't have the tools and knowledge to perform a thorough investigation of all the consequences of their license choice every time they employ OSS.

Drawing on research in information systems and sociology, this study develops and evaluates an integrated model for the acceptance of OSS. In addition to the traditional technology adoption variables the findings stress the importance of social identification as a key driver of OSS adoption. 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]},

abstract = {Today's software companies face the challenges of highly distributed development projects and constantly changing requirements. 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]},

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.

This paper investigates the control modes in OSS project communities, and their effects on project performance. Based on a web survey and archival data from OSS projects, it is revealed that three types of control modes, that is, outcome, clanship, and self-control, are effective in an OSS project community.

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.},

Recently, the focus has shifted toward an examination of a newer construct -temporal dispersion (TD). The study of TD so far has been constrained mostly to conceptual work. This study furthers the understanding of TD through an empirical investigation of its relationship with open source software (OSS) team performance. In this paper, hypotheses are developed based on coordination theory, and analyses are performed using data collected from multiple archival sources comprising 100 OSS development teams. Results indicate that TD positively affects development speed and quality and that software complexity moderates the relation between TD and software quality. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

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 = {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. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

abstract = {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 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 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.},

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.

In particular, SNA techniques will be used to identify those members playing a middle-man role among other community members. Results will illustrate the importance of this role to achieve successful virtual communities. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

We test the hypothesis that skill variety of participants is associated with project performance. 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.

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 = {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 = {Since the mid-1990s, there has been a surge of interest among academics and practitioners in open source software (OSS). 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]},

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.

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]},

We also show that developer and non-developer interest in the OSS project and the project activity levels in any time period significantly affect the project success measures in subsequent time period.

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 = {This paper develops models for programmer participation and effort estimation in open source software projects and employs the results to assess the efficiency of open source software creation. Successful development of such models will be important for decision makers of various kinds. We propose hypotheses based on a prior case study on manpower function and effort modeling. A large data set retrieved from a project repository is used to test these hypotheses. The main results are that if Norden-Rayleigh-based approaches are used, they need to be complemented in order to account for the addition of new features during a product life cycle, and that programmer-participation based effort models result in distinctly lower estimations of effort than those based on output metrics, such as lines of code.

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.},

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.

abstract = {Commercial software companies face many challenges when competing in today's fast moving and competitive industry environment. 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]},

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 based on OSS.

In particular, based on a codification of the messages recorded in the bug tracking system of four projects, we identify the accomplished tasks, the adopted coordination mechanisms, and the role undertaken by both the FLOSS development team and the FLOSS community.

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 = {The entry and success of open source software (OSS), for example, Linux's entry into the operating systems market, has fundamentally changed industry structures in the software business. 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]},

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]},

abstract = {This study investigates the commercialisation process of a select group of bioinformatics companies and the impact of open-source software. Using the research-development-application translation model provides a framework for managers as an iterative mechanism. A Value Creation Pipeline is then introduced with five phases of the commercialisation process that provide specific financial benchmarks that can guide the firm through to successful commercialisation. Using trend and financial ratio analyses relative to returns, profitability and liquidity, the study finds that the surge in open-source licenses between 2003 and 2005 limited the sales for some firms. As for the claim that open-source software negatively impacts the success of bioinformatics commercialisation, there was little evidence to suggest a direct cause-and-effect relationship. Losses in returns, profitability and liquidity were just as common before the rise of open source as after its emergence. When firms report an overall record over a nine-year period of poor return on investment, assets and equity, there is little to attract potential investors. The lesson that can be drawn is that the innovation process and financial tracking must be integrated to ensure efficient and profitable use of investor funds. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

abstract = {Do open source software (OSS) projects represent a new innovation model? Under what conditions can it be employed in other contexts? "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]},

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.

This survey-based study, conducted with 402 active LUG members representing 191 different LUGs from 23 countries and employing structural equation modeling methodology, supports the proposed model.

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]},

Service discovery is an essential mechanism to achieve this goal. Driven primarily by the OSS requirements, this paper proposes a new service discovery methodology for next generation OSS -- model-based service discovery (MBSD). MBSD takes advantage of the OMG MDA (model-driven architecture) technology. The system architecture of MBSD and its operation and implementation are presented. The proposed methodology is briefly validated through an OSS scenario. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]},

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. 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.},

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.},

This observation, however, has not been discussed in much detail and critically addressed by the software engineering community. Most of the claims associated with open source appear to be weakly motivated and articulated. 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. The ultimate goal of the paper is to identify the concepts and intuitions that are really peculiar to open source, and to distinguish them from features and aspects that can be equally applied to or found in proprietary software.

That is what writing a program will be like if software patents continue. The sparks of creativity and individualism that have driven the computer revolution will be snuffed out.--Richard Stallman and Simson Garfinkel (1992)
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]},

abstract = {Scientific open-source software (scientific OSS) has facilitated scientific research due to its transparent and collaborative nature. The sustainability of such software is becoming crucial given its pivotal role in scientific endeavors. 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 = {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.},

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 = {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 = {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.},

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.},

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.},

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 = {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.},

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 = {Open Source Software (OSS) forms an infrastructure on which numerous (often critical) software applications are based. 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 = {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 = {Motivation: Societys 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 projects 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 projects 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 = {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 = {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 = {Many computer science students are eager to learn about how to contribute to Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) projects, but like most computer science departments, ours has no courses to help them achieve that goal. Creating such courses requires buy-in by deans, department chairs, and other faculty, who, because of lack of knowledge, can have little interest in supporting such efforts. Our poster shows how we solved this problem and created a means for students to simultaneously learn how to be contributors to FOSS projects and earn credit toward their major. It shows how we sought and found interested students and engaged them through repeated, informal meetings, which we used to gain the support of the chair and dean, and how we simulated a prototype course by having the students sign up for independent study credit. The group then met at regular intervals, communicated and shared work using discussion forums, source code repositories, and IRC chat. All course content is based on open source materials, including free textbooks, an abundance of on-line tutorials and reference materials, lecture notes and assignments that we wrote, with open source licenses, and other materials borrowed from http://foss2serve.org. The success of this simulated course led to the creation of a pilot course for the Spring 2019 semester, endorsed by the college. The poster presents several assignments, discusses preliminary findings, and provides links to materials that we created for this course. It also shows how we encouraged students to work on humanitarian FOSS (HFOSS) projects.},

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.},

Since users' information and actions are recorded, GitHub has been mined for over 6 years now to investigate aspects of the collaborative open source software (OSS) development paradigm. Aim: In this research, we use this data to investigate the relation between project growth as a proxy for success, and social diversity. Method: We first categorize active OSS projects into a five-star rating using a benchmarking system we based on various project growth metrics; then we study the relation between this rating and the reported social diversities for the team members of those projects. Results: Our findings highlight a statistically significant relation; however, the effect is small. Conclusions: Our findings suggest the need for further research on this topic; moreover, the proposed benchmarking method may be used in future work to determine OSS project success on collaboration platforms such as GitHub.},

abstract = {The recent introduction of the pull-based development model promoted agile development practices such as Code Reviews and Continuous Integration (CI). CI, in particular, is currently a standard development practice in open-source software (OSS) projects. Although it is well-known that OSS contributors have different involvements (e.g., while some developers drive the project, there is a long tail of peripheral developers), little is known about how the contributor's degree of participation can influence the build status of an OSS project. Through TravisTorrent's dataset, we compare the success rates of builds made by casual and non-casual contributors and what factors on their contributions may influence the build result. Our results suggest that there is no representative difference between their build success (they are similar in 85\% of the analyzed projects), meaning that being a casual contributor is not a strong indicator for creating failing builds. Also, factors like the size of their contributions and the number of project configurations (jobs) have the potential of impacting the build success.},

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.},

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.},

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.},

We refer to the production of software primarily for the benefit of developers as reflexivity, and we evaluate the applicability of this concept to open source software (OSS) by studying SourceForge projects. Objective: The goal of this research is to test Eric Raymond's assertions with respect to OSS success factors. Method: We present four criteria by which to assess project reflexivity in SourceForge. These criteria are based on three specific indicators: intended audiences, relevant topics, and supported operating systems. Results: We show in this short paper that 68\% of SourceForge projects are likely reflexive (in the sense described by Raymond). Further, 76\% of projects exceeding one million downloads are reflexive, 79\% for projects exceeding ten million downloads, and 89\% for projects exceeding one hundred million downloads. Conclusion: These results tentatively support Raymond's assertions that 1) OSS projects tend to be reflexive and 2) reflexive OSS projects tend to be more successful than irreflexive projects. Causality, however, is not addressed.},

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.},

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.},

These perspectives will exemplify key issues with FOSS-based education and FOSS-based IT systems. The developer and user communities established around FOSS-based IT systems are of particular interest to the IT discipline because of its focus on user centeredness and advocacy for advancing professional practices in authentic environments.},

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 = {Predicting how much effort will be required to complete a software project as early as possible is a very important factor in the success of software development projects. Including function points and its variants, there are several size measures and corresponding measurement methods that can be used for effort estimation. However, in most of the projects, there is limited amount of information available in the early stages and significant effort is spent for size measurement and effort estimation with such methods. This paper analyzes the correlation between the size metrics of conceptual model of the problem domain and the resulting software. For this purpose, we consider open source project management and game software. We apply linear regression and cross validation techniques to investigate the relation between the sizes of problem domain (i.e., Conceptual) and solution domain (i.e., Design) models. The results reveal a high correlation between the number of conceptual classes in the problem domain model and the number of software classes constituting the corresponding software. The results suggest that it is possible to use problem domain descriptions in the early stages of software development projects to make plausible predictions for the size of the software.},

abstract = {When newcomers try to join an open source soft-ware (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 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.},

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.},

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.},

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.},

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.},

We consider different aspects of openness in a corporate strategy for maintaining digital assets. An important aspect concerns activity and company influence in an Open Source tool-chain, another concerns support for data curation of digital assets actually offered by the tool chain. We find that organisational concern over legacy file formats continues to be an issue, and that strong commercial influence on Open Source projects is no guarantee for success.},

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 organizations 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.},

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.},

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.},

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.

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 = {This paper outlines the motivations and methods for analyzing the developer network of open source software (OSS) projects. 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.},

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.},

The current study found evidence for these two waves and further explored the two waves by empirically examining two hundred projects hosted in Sourceforge.net. We compared the characteristics of OSS projects that are intended for two disparate audiences: developers and end-users and found that projects for end-users supported more languages but also had more restrictive licenses as compared to projects for developers.},

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.},

abstract = {Open-Source Software (OSS) development is regarded as a successful model of encouraging "natural product evolution". 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.},

Members of such communities are volunteers whose motivation to participate and contribute is of essential importance to the success of OSS projects.

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.},

Nowadays there is much talk about the digital divide, which means economical and social disparities in digital technology use and availability in society of a particular country and among different countries. In this paper we sought to explore teachers knowledge and use of ICT resources in the context of free/libre and open-source software (FLOSS). When relying permanently on free tools there are several benefits which in turn will grow sustainable information society and will fortify economy in larger scale. For the mentioned purpose we use Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) first version. We found that TAM model is not ideal to accomplish mentioned tasks, especially in educational institutions. If teachers will be aware of FLOSS then they can increase ICT resources use in schools in a meaningful way. This in turn will reduce also disparity in schools and we may call it as a digital turn.},

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.},

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.},

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 = {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.},

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).},

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.},

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 = {Successful Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects 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.},

This study longitudinally analyzed the impact of demographic attributes on survivability in the Flutter community through the lens of gender, region, and compensation. The preliminary analysis reveals that affiliated or Western contributors have a higher survival probability than volunteer or Non-Western contributors. However, no significant difference was found in the survival probability between men and women.},

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 = {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)?},

abstract = {Training recurrent neural networks (RNNs) remains a challenge due to the instability of gradients across long time horizons, which can lead to exploding and vanishing gradients. Recent research has linked these problems to the values of Lyapunov exponents for the forward-dynamics, which describe the growth or shrinkage of infinitesimal perturbations. Here, we propose gradient flossing, a novel approach to tackling gradient instability by pushing Lyapunov exponents of the forward dynamics toward zero during learning. We achieve this by regularizing Lyapunov exponents through backpropagation using differentiable linear algebra. This enables us to "floss" the gradients, stabilizing them and thus improving network training. We demonstrate that gradient flossing controls not only the gradient norm but also the condition number of the long-term Jacobian, facilitating multidimensional error feedback propagation. We find that applying gradient flossing prior to training enhances both the success rate and convergence speed for tasks involving long time horizons. For challenging tasks, we show that gradient flossing during training can further increase the time horizon that can be bridged by backpropagation through time. Moreover, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on various RNN architectures and tasks of variable temporal complexity. Additionally, we provide a simple implementation of our gradient flossing algorithm that can be used in practice. Our results indicate that gradient flossing via regularizing Lyapunov exponents can significantly enhance the effectiveness of RNN training and mitigate the exploding and vanishing gradients problem.},

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\%.},

An experiment on workload balancing demonstrates that Push Citation is robust against the increasing demand for reviews and the uneven distribution of the burden.

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 = {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 = {Begun in 2006, the Humanitarian Free and Open Source Software Project (HFOSS Project) is an educational initiative whose goal is to engage undergraduates in computer science by building free and open source software that benefits humanity, both locally and globally. 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 = {Given PHPs continuous success, it remains an important task to ensure security in its applications. While code reviews are a common measure to catch bugs during development, they lack scalability, are error-prone, and time-consuming [2, 38, 41]. Thus, static analysis tools like Semgrep emerged to provide programmatic feedback on code. But static analyses often show low precision, which can jeopardize utility.In this case study, we investigate precision rates for Semgrep OSS for common web weaknesses from the OWASP Top 10 [35]. We explore method and tool limitations in weakness detection, OWASP classes, and Semgreps public PHP rule set. We apply the latter to 300 open source applications, invest 34 h in manual sample validation, and derive precision rates for each OWASP class.Our validation shows that the rules correctly detected weaknesses for seven OWASP classes with 86\% precision, demonstrating the tools utility. Yet, we estimate that most findings are not exploitable (81\%). Thus, there is still considerable assessment overhead for users. Our work further highlights that only a subset of weaknesses are detectable, as dimensions such as runtime context and insecure design remain hidden. Finally, we advise practitioners to not exclusively rely on public rules, as translating application-specific business logic and design choices may open up to the detection of previously uncovered weaknesses.},

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 = {The success of open-source software (OSS) depends on the self-organizing collaboration of developers and the structure of developer collaboration network are intensively investigated in the literature. 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.},

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.},

However, it is difficult for newcomers to locate suitable development tasks, while existing "Good First Issues" (GFI) in GitHub are often insufficient and inappropriate. In this paper, we propose RecGFI, an effective practical approach for the recommendation of good first issues to newcomers, which can be used to relieve maintainers' burden and help newcomers onboard. RecGFI models an issue with features from multiple dimensions (content, background, and dynamics) and uses an XGBoost classifier to generate its probability of being a GFI. To evaluate RecGFI, we collect 53,510 resolved issues among 100 GitHub projects and carefully restore their historical states to build ground truth datasets. Our evaluation shows that RecGFI can achieve up to 0.853 AUC in the ground truth dataset and outperforms alternative models. Our interpretable analysis of the trained model further reveals interesting observations about GFI characteristics. Finally, we report latest issues (without GFI-signaling labels but recommended as GFI by our approach) to project maintainers among which 16 are confirmed as real GFIs and five have been resolved by a newcomer.},

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.},

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 = {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.},

The early identification of developers who are likely to remain is thus an eminent challenge for the management of FLOSS initiatives. Previous research has shown that individuals' subjective assessment is often inaccurate emphasizing the need to objectively evaluate retention behavior. Consistent with the concepts Person-Job (P-J) and Person-Team (P-T) fit from the traditional recruitment literature, we derive objective measures to predict developer retention in FLOSS projects. In an analysis of the contribution behavior of former Google Summer of Code (GSoC) students we reveal that the level of development experience and conversational knowledge is strongly associated with retention. Surprisingly, our analysis reveals that students with abilities that are underrepresented in the project and students with a higher academic education do not remain considerably longer.},

abstract = {Free Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) is of vital importance for the daily life of many private and corporate users. However, the majority of all FLOSS initiatives fail, most commonly due to a lack of sustained developers. In contrast to previous research which used an individual centric or a structural perspective, this dissertation combines motivational and relational aspects to build a comprehensive understanding for FLOSS developers' ongoing project commitment. A unified research model is developed by drawing on established theories from organizational and sociological literature, in particular by combining Self-Determination-Theory (SDT) and Social-Identity-Theory (SIT). Both SDT and SIT have been found valuable concepts for staffing decisions in organizations. In addition to the development and evaluation of the research model, this dissertation derives operational strategies for project managers of FLOSS initiatives on how to enhance the retention behavior of their contributor base.},

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 languages evolution. Our findings make the influence of different roles transparent to future (new) members, other stakeholders, and more broadly, to the OSS research community.},

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.},

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.},

Based on recently conducted interviews with community network activists from the Germany based project Freifunk and established FLOSS motivation research, we will analyse the specifics of the Freifunk project and the factors which spur its members to action.

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.},

abstract = {Maintaining a productive and collaborative team of developers is essential to Open Source Software (OSS) success, and hinges upon the trust inherent among the team. Whether a project participant is initiated as a developer is a function of both his technical contributions and also his social interactions with other project participants. One\^{a}€™s online social footprint is arguably easier to ascertain and gather than one\^{a}€™s technical contributions e.g., gathering patch submission information requires mining multiple sources with different formats, and then merging the aliases from these sources. In contrast to prior work, where patch submission was found to be an essential ingredient to achieving developer status, here we investigate the extent to which the likelihood of achieving that status can be modeled solely as a social network phenomenon. For 6 different OSS projects we compile and integrate a set of social measures of the communications network among OSS project participants and a set of technical measures, i.e. OSS developers patch submission activities. We use these sets to predict whether a project participant will become a developer. We find that the social network metrics, in particular the amount of two-way communication a person participates in, are more significant predictors of one\^{a}€™s likelihood to becoming a developer. Further, we find that this is true to the extent that other predictors, e.g. patch submission info, need not be included in the models. In addition, we show that future developers are easy to identify with great fidelity when using the first three months of data of their social activities. Moreover, only the first month of their social links are a very useful predictor, coming within 10\% of the three month data\^{a}€™s predictions. Finally, we find that it is easier to become a developer earlier in the projects lifecycle than it is later as the project matures. These results should provide insight on the social nature of gaining trust and advancing in status in distributed projects.},

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.},

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 = {Context: Not releasing software on time can cause substantial loss in revenue. Continuous awareness of the product release status is required. Release readiness is a time-dependent attribute of the status of the product release, which aggregates the degree of satisfaction of a portfolio of release process and product measures.Goal: At different stages of a release cycle, the goal is to understand frequencies and pattern of occurrence of factors affecting project success by restricting the status of release readiness (called bottlenecks).Method: As a form of explorative case study research, we analyzed ten open source software (OSS) projects taken from the GitHub repository. As a retrospective study covering a period of 28 weeks, we monitored eight release readiness attributes and identified their impact on release readiness over time across the ten projects.Results: Feature completion rate, Bug fixing rate, and Features implemented were observed as the most frequent bottlenecks. The most frequent transition between bottlenecks is from Pull-request completion rate to Bug fixing rate. With the exception of Pull-request completion rate, no significant differences were found in occurrence of bottleneck factors between early and late stage of the release cycle.Conclusions: We received an initial understanding of the most frequent bottleneck factors for release readiness and their likelihood of subsequent occurrence. This is intended to guide the effort spent on improving release engineering.},

We conduct three preliminary experiments to assess the appropriateness of this tool for information extraction from mailing lists. First, using LIWC dimensions that are correlated with the big five personality traits, we assess the personality of four top developers against a baseline for the entire mailing list. The two developers that were responsible for the major Apache releases had similar personalities. Their personalities were different from the baseline and the other developers. Second, the first and last 50 emails for two top developers who have left the project are examined. The analysis shows promise in understanding why developers join and leave a project. Third, we examine word usage on the mailing list for two major Apache releases. The differences may reflect the relative success of each release.},

abstract = {Developer mailing lists are a rich source of information about Open Source Software (OSS) development. The unstructured nature of email makes extracting information difficult. We use a psychometrically-based linguistic analysis tool, the LIWC, to examine the Apache httpd server developer mailing list. We conduct three preliminary experiments to assess the appropriateness of this tool for information extraction from mailing lists. First, using LIWC dimensions that are correlated with the big five personality traits, we assess the personality of four top developers against a baseline for the entire mailing list. The two developers that were responsible for the major Apache releases had similar personalities. Their personalities were different from the baseline and the other developers. Second, the first and last 50 emails for two top developers who have left the project are examined. The analysis shows promise in understanding why developers join and leave a project. Third, we examine word usage on the mailing list for two major Apache releases. The differences may reflect the relative success of each release.},

abstract = {Open source software represents an important form of digital infrastructure as well as a pathway to technical careers for many developers, but women are drastically underrepresented in this setting. Although there is a good body of literature on open source participation, there is very little understanding of the participation trajectories and contribution experiences of women developers, and how they compare to those of men developers, in open source software projects. In order to understand their joining and participation trajectories, we conducted interviews with 23 developers (11 men and 12 women) who became core in an open source project. We identify differences in women and men's motivations for initial contributions and joining processes (e.g. women participating in projects that they have been invited to) and sustained involvement in a project. We also describe unique negative experiences faced by women contributors in this setting in each stage of participation. Our results have implications for diversifying participation in open source software and understanding open source as a pathway to technical careers.},

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.},

The communities responsible for building this cyberinfrastructure require maintenance and moderation, which is often supported by volunteer efforts. Moderation, as a non-technical form of labor, is a necessary but often overlooked task that maintainers undertake to sustain the community around an OSS project. This study examines the various structures and norms that support community moderation, describes the strategies moderators use to mitigate conflicts, and assesses how bots can play a role in assisting these processes. We interviewed 14 practitioners to uncover existing moderation practices and ways that automation can provide assistance. Our main contributions include a characterization of moderated content in OSS projects, moderation techniques, as well as perceptions of and recommendations for improving the automation of moderation tasks. We hope that these findings will inform the implementation of more effective moderation practices in open source communities.},

As F/OSS has become larger and more established, we investigate the labor of maintaining and sustaining those projects at various scales. We report findings from an interview-based study with contributors and maintainers working in a wide range of F/OSS projects. 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.},

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 = {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.},

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 = {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.},

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 = {This paper analyses the phenomenon of free and open source software (FOSS) in the light of Luc Boltanski and Ève 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 = {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. Adapted from the source document.},

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 = {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.

abstract = {Many technologies in our everyday lives are expressions of deliberate and protracted political struggles among interested groups. 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.]},

Title = {Mapping and Analysis of Open Source Software (OSS) Usability for
Sustainable OSS Product},
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.},

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
contribution. This research agenda paper proposes future inquiries to
develop a comprehensive picture of ecological shift in different levels
of system modularity and organizational circumstances of OSS production
over time and through episodes.},

Network(ARN), a (hyper)graphical model to represent a special class of

validate these relationships using Factor Analysis, a classical
statistical technique related to Singular Value Decomposition(SVD).},

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.},

Journal = {COMMUNICATIONS OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {49},
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.},

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.},

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.},

Title = {Does Superposition Influence the Success of FLOSS Projects? An
Examination of Open-Source Software Development by Organizations and
Individuals},

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 = {Since the mid-1990s, there has been a surge of interest among academics
and practitioners in open source software (OSS). While there is an
abundance of literature on OSS, most studies oil 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 all OSS success model from a
previous Information Systems success model incorporating the
characteristics of OSS. Using the proposed model, we identify these
determinants, Our findings live determinants for OSS success as well as
l number of significant relationships among I 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 its Well as offering OSS practitioners for enhancing OSS

Abstract = {The mirroring hypothesis predicts that loosely-coupled developers will
develop a loosely-coupled software system. However, empirical studies
have brought confusing results about the mirroring relationship in open
source software (OSS) production: loosely-coupled OSS contributors have
developed a tightly-coupled system, deviating from theoretical
prediction, but are still successful. 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.},

examined and are all found to be statistically significant. In addition,
several control variables, such as software size, age, development

Abstract = {Despite a growing body of research on OSS production, much remains to be
learned. One important issue concerns the measures of OSS project
success and its determinants. In this paper, we empirically study the
determinants of OSS success as measured by the number of subscribers and
developers working on an OSS project. Furthermore, we demonstrate that
our model forecasts these success measures more accurately as compared
to a naive model.
We find that OSS projects that develop software to work on
Windows/UNIX/Linux operating systems, and developed using Cot its
derivative languages experience larger increase in subscribers and
attract more developers than projects that do not have these
characteristics. OSS projects with semi-restrictive licenses have fewer
subscribers and attract fewer developers. Interestingly, OSS projects
that accept financial donations and are targeted at IS/IT professionals
have more subscribers than others, although these characteristics do not
affect the developer base. The number of subscribers and developers
increases with the age of the OSS project. Finally, the impact of
developers on subscribers and subscribers on developers is positive and
significant. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

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.},

open source paradigm is one of the most promising strategies to enhance
the maturity, quality, and efficiency of software development
activities. This observation, however, has not been discussed in much
detail and critically addressed by the software engineering community.
Most of the claims associated with open source appear to be weakly
motivated and articulated.
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.
The ultimate goal of the paper is to identify the concepts and
intuitions that are really peculiar to open source, and to distinguish
them from features and aspects that can be equally applied to or found

Abstract = {One of the recurrent themes in open source software research is to
understand the impacts of various project characteristics on its
success. Open source software (OSS) projects rely on voluntary
participation of developers and tend to be continually in development.
Hence, an important measure of success is the time it takes for an OSS
project to release a stable version to its users. However, there is
little research on this success measure and how the OSS characteristics
enable or delay the progress towards stable release. In this study, we
use survival analysis technique on open source project data to explore
the impacts of OSS characteristics on the time it takes to release
stable software versions. We find that when compared to the interest of
developers in the project, interest of end-users has a greater positive
effect on an OSS project progress towards stable release. Our findings
also suggest that the use of C and C-like programming languages or a
Weak-Copyleft license for the open source project negatively impact the
project's time to reach stable status. In OSS projects less than 8
months since becoming public, the use of a Strong-Copyleft license
positively affects the project's progress. One of the implications of
our findings is that OSS project administrators should control software
change requests or form smaller developer groups to better control the
delays due to higher developer interest in their projects.},

Abstract = {Survivability is a vital concern to the Open Source Software (OSS)
community. To measure OSS survivability performance, user download is a
metric suggested for measuring the user population size, use and
download to determine software popularity, success ability and
survivability. For measuring OSS survival growth, the size of the user
download is significant as it can help determine a product's popularity
and users' trust. This paper makes two important contributions to the
literature: identification of low survival issues in relation to
existing projects and the significance of project type differences

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 = {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 = {With the rapid rise in the use of Open Source Software (OSS) in all
types of applications, it is important to know which factors can lead to
OSS success. OSS projects evolve and transform over time; therefore
success must be examined longitudinally over a period of time. In this
research, we examine two measures of project success: project popularity
and developer activity, of 283 OSS projects over a span of 3 years, in
order to observe changes over time. A comprehensive research model of
OSS success is developed which includes both extrinsic and intrinsic
attributes. Results show that while many of the hypothesized
relationships are supported, there were marked differences in some of
the relationships at different points in time lending support to the
notion that different factors need to be emphasized as the OSS project
unfolds over time. (C) 2011 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 = {Analyzing Key Features of Open Source Software Survivability with Random
Forest},
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
to 4000, while larger codebases, higher cyclomatic complexity, and older
project age are associated with unresolved issue rates, rising by up to
15\%. Forks also have a nonlinear impact, initially stabilizing
retention rates but increasing unresolved issues as contributions became
unmanageable. By identifying these critical factors and quantifying
their impacts, this research offers actionable insights for OSS project
managers to enhance project survivability and address key maintenance
challenges, ensuring sustainable long-term success.},

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).},

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 = {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.},

Title = {Survivability Prediction of Open Source Software with Polynomial
Regression},

Abstract = {In modern software development, OSS (Open Source Software) has become a
crucial element. However, if OSS have few contributors and are lacking
in maintenance activities, such as bug fixes, are used, it can lead to
significant costs and resource allocation due to maintenance
discontinuation. Since OSS are developed by a diverse group of
contributors, the consistency of their involvement may vary, making
continuous support and maintenance unpredictable. Therefore, it is
necessary to identify the status of each OSS to avoid increased
maintenance costs when selecting OSS for use. To address these issues,
we use polynomial regression to predict trends in bug-fixing activities
and evaluate the survivability of OSS accordingly. We predict the trend
of bug-fixing activities in OSS, using factors such as popularity,
number of contributors, and code complexity. A lower trend value
indicates more vigorous activity. In this paper, we conduct data
collection and extraction, generating model, and model testing and
evaluation to predict survivability using these data. After collecting
data through various tools, the models of different degrees are
generated using K-fold cross-validation. The model with the highest
performance is selected based on the RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) and
RSE (Residual Standard Error). Then, the chosen model is employed to
predict the survivability of OSS and compare it with actual outcomes.
This method is experimented with on OSS used in the KakaoTalk commercial
messenger app. As a result, several OSS are predicted to have low
survivability, and among them, five are analyzed. It is observed that,
in reality, activities such as delayed or discontinued release updates
occurred. These findings can support OSS users in selecting OSS for
cost-saving purposes and alert OSS administrators to the need for
solutions to ensure project survival.},

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.},

Title = {Determinants of success in open source software networks},
Journal = {INDUSTRIAL MANAGEMENT \& DATA SYSTEMS},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {109},
Number = {3-4},
Pages = {532-549},
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 = {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 = {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.},

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 = {The Open Source Software (OSS) ecosystem and community has evolved
enormously from the first edition of the OSS conference that took place
in Genoa (Italy) in 2005. Such evolution happened in every aspect of OSS
including research, technology, and business pushing its adoption to an
unpredictable scale. Nowadays, it is almost impossible for people not
using OSS in every interaction they have with technology. This fact is a
tremendous success for OSS but such evolution and adoption has not
always followed the intended path and some relevant deviations have
occurred during such long journey.
This paper provide an overview of the evolution of OSS in the three
mentioned areas (research, technology, and business) highlighting the
main aspects and identifying the current trends that will be the basis
for its future evolution.},

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 = {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 = {Open Source Software (OSS) forms an infrastructure on which numerous
(often critical) software applications are based. 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 = {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 (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 = {This paper examines the relationship between open source project
diversity and success. The sample of open source projects includes all
mature projects driven by the Eclipse Foundation as of February 2008.
Three types of project diversity were used: i) organizational - measured
by number of committers per organization per project, ii) contribution -
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.},

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 = {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 = {As the number of available Open Source Software (OSS) and the interest
they attract are increasing, numerous product attributes are provided to
developers and users for evaluating the quality and success of an OSS.
Accordingly, various articles in the literature assess the quality and
success of OSS, by using different quality attributes and metrics and
different approaches. Though this variety can be considered as a
positive indicator of research interest and maturation on one side, it
creates a kind of jungle in defining and understanding the terms
`quality' and `success' on the other side. Based on this challenge, in
this study, we targeted a systematic mapping (SM) of the articles on
quality and success of OSS. More than 474 articles have appeared in this
area between the years 2002 and 2017, and the final pool of 128 articles
is obtained by defining and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria.
SM was employed to develop a classification scheme and categorized the
existing body of articles with respect to five research questions (RQs)
on: contribution and research types, quality criteria and metrics,
success criteria and metrics, the relation of quality and success, and
demographics. We observed that the majority of the articles assess the
concept of quality as `code quality', whereas the concept of success is
mostly perceived as `market success' and/or `developer activity'.
Moreover, the metrics of `contributing developers/users', and the
quality attribute of `functionality' are the quality criteria most
employed in the assessment of success.},

have an adverse impact on OSS success. On further analysis, restrictive
OSS license is found to be negatively associated with developer
interest, but is positively associated with the interest of
non-developer users and project administrators. We also show that
developer and non-developer interest in the OSS project and the project
activity levels in any time period significantly affect the project
success measures in subsequent time period. The implications of our
findings for OSS research and practice are discussed. (C) 2008 Elsevier

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

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.},

Title = {Code Forking, Governance, and Sustainability in Open Source Software},
Journal = {TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION MANAGEMENT REVIEW},
Year = {2013},
Pages = {7-12},
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 = {We analyze investment incentives for a firm A owning a software platform
and an application and a firm B deciding whether to develop a new
application for the platform. While B's entry helps the success of the
platform, B fears ex post expropriation by A and is hence reluctant to
enter and invest. We show that different platform governance structures
prevalent in the Information and Communication Technology industry
(integrated, proprietary, standardized, open source platform) serve to
balance investment incentives for the platform and for the applications.

Journal = {RESEARCH POLICY},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {38},
Number = {2},
Pages = {404-414},
Month = {MAR},
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 = {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 this study, the aerodynamic analysis of the NREL S826 wind turbine
blade profile, which has been a frequent topic of research in recent
years, was conducted using the open-source computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) software OpenFOAM. For the solution of the two-dimensional flow
field, the k-omega SST and Langtry-Menter Transition SST (gamma-(R) over
tildee theta(t)) turbulence models were employed, while the Transition
SST (gamma-(R) over tildee theta(t)) model was used for
three-dimensional analyses. All simulations were time-dependent and
solved using pimpleCentralFoam, a pressure-based, semi-implicit hybrid
solver. The obtained data were compared with experimental results and
examined in detail. The findings revealed that the hybrid solver used,
combined with the Transition SST (gamma-(R) over tildee theta(t))
turbulence model-frequently preferred for modeling transition to
turbulence-worked efficiently together and produced results closely
aligned with experimental data. Additionally, the numerical method
employed in this study offered a unique approach compared to other
studies in the literature, demonstrating significant success in
predicting the characteristics of pre-stall, stall, and post-stall
conditions.},

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 = {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.},

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
software system declines when it evolves. In this paper, the method of
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
significant.},

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 = {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.},

traditional closed source development processes. Still, open source
software is frequently of high quality. Thus, we are investigating how

this quality for ever larger project sizes. In this paper, we look at
one particular quality indicator, the density of comments in open source
software code. In a large-scale study of more than 5, 000 projects, we
find that active open source projects document their source code, and we
find that the comment density is independent of team and project size,
but not of project age. In future work, we intend to correlate comment
density with project success or failure.},

Title = {Gendered behavior as a disadvantage in open source software development},
Journal = {EPJ DATA SCIENCE},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {8},
Month = {JUL 6},
Abstract = {Women are severely marginalized in software development, especially in
open source. In this article we argue that disadvantage is more due to
gendered behavior than to categorical discrimination: women are at a
disadvantage because of what they do, rather than because of who they
are. Using data on entire careers of users from GitHub.com, we develop a
measure to capture the gendered pattern of behavior: We use a random
forest prediction of being female (as opposed to being male) by
behavioral choices in the level of activity, specialization in
programming languages, and choice of partners. We test differences in
success and survival along both categorical gender and the gendered
pattern of behavior. We find that 84.5\% of women's disadvantage
(compared to men) in success and 34.8\% of their disadvantage in
survival are due to the female pattern of their behavior. Men are also
disadvantaged along their interquartile range of the female pattern of
their behavior, and users who don't reveal their gender suffer an even
more drastic disadvantage in survival probability. Moreover, we do not
see evidence for any reduction of these inequalities in time. Our
findings are robust to noise in gender recognition, and to taking into
account particular programming languages, or decision tree classes of
gendered behavior. Our results suggest that fighting categorical gender
discrimination will have a limited impact on gender inequalities in open
source software development, and that gender hiding is not a viable
strategy for women.},

Journal = {DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEMS},

Volume = {91},

Month = {NOV},
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 = {Do open source software (OSS) projects represent a new innovation model?
Under what conditions can it be employed in other contexts? ``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. (c) 2007 Published by Elsevier B.V.},

Month = {SEP},
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 = {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.},

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 = {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.},

Month = {FEB},
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
on academic research, and predicting research impact.},

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 = {The open source software (OSS) model is a fundamentally new and
revolutionary way to develop software. The success of the OSS model is
also setting the stage for a structural change in the software industry;
it is beginning to transform software industry from manufacturing to a
service industry. Despite the success of the OSS model, for-profit
organizations are having difficulty building a business model around the
open source paradigm. Whereas there are some isolated empirical studies,
little rigorous research has been done on how traditional organizations
can implement and benefit from OSS practices. This research explores how
organizations can foster an environment similar to OSS to manage their
software development efforts to reap its numerous advantages: Drawing on
organizational theory, we develop a framework that guides the creation
and management of a hybrid-OSS community within an organization. We
discuss the implications of this framework and suggest areas for future
research.},

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.},

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 = {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.},

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.},

characteristics. Open source developments are usually viewed as
un-conventional software engineering approach to software development.
This article presents a unique framework to open source development with
open-onions approach that identifies key- characteristics of successful
open source projects. Validation was performed based on ten highly
ranked(1) Open source projects. Data was collected from sourceforge.net
repository and analysed with SPSS. Our approach is based on five
fundamental open onions layers. Result shows that the most popular open
source license is GPL and that licence type has significant impact on
project rank. The domain audience has negative impact on project rank
and user interface has significantly negative impact on project's domain
audience. Topics covered have strong significant impact on the domain
audience and a negative effect on the user interface. This study
revealed that given the open onions approach, open source development
could be visualized more conventionally.},

entrepreneurs are connected to other community members and how these
networks affect entrepreneurial processes. Our results suggest that
through different aspects of networked work, open entrepreneurs fulfill
their profit motives not only in the short term but also in the long
term as their networking activities facilitate the overall functioning
and sustainability of the community.},

Abstract = {Nowadays Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) play a very
important role in Logistics. The Open Source Software (OSS) movement is
creating new models for research and education. This work argues over
the exclusive use of OSS for supporting the laboratory sessions of ICT
undergraduate courses in the domain of Logistics Management, in a Greek
public Higher Education Institution. We demonstrate the successful
adoption of OSS and its influence in Logistics Management education,
focusing on learning of concepts rather than products. Four sample
courses that are closely related are considered: Databases Management,
Geographical Information Systems (GIS), Logistics Information Systems
and E-Business. The requirements and selection of the most suitable open
source programs, the adaptation of the existing educational material and
the development of new course-ware are presented. The various factors
that can influence the successful implementation, the issues that we
addressed, and the students' attitudes towards using OSS are analysed.},

Volume = {18},

Abstract = {An accurate maintenance effort model is essential for a successful
software maintenance process. Maintenance effort is usually measured in
person-hours used to perform a maintenance task. However, maintenance
effort data are usually only available for strictly managed software,
such as closed-source software. In other software projects that do not
have complete maintenance records, especially some open-source software,
there are no direct data for maintenance effort, which precludes the
establishment of a maintenance effort model. In this paper, we report a
series of studies aimed at presenting a method for indirectly predicting
the maintenance effort of open-source software. This report covers two
parts of our research. First, we examine the maintenance data from NASA
SEL closed-source software projects and identify some software measures
that can be used to indirectly represent maintenance effort. Second,
based on the findings in the first part, we analyze 121 recent versions
of Linux, and use linear regression to construct two indirect
maintenance effort models for the Linux project. Our study demonstrates
the applicability of this approach to indirectly predicting the
maintenance effort and improving the software maintenance process.

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.},

Journal = {COMPUTERS IN HUMAN BEHAVIOR},

Volume = {49},
Pages = {390-399},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Open Source Software (OSS) is an alternative to proprietary software. It
is growing in popularity, which has brought about an increase in
research interest. Most of the research studies have focused on
identifying individual personal motives for participating in the
development of an OSS project, analyzing specific solutions, or the OSS
movement, itself. No studies have been found which have undertaken
research on the impact of user experience and training on OSS. The study
reported here sought to identify factors that predict acceptance of
technologies based on OSS after training in these solutions. A research
model based on the Technology Acceptance Model (Davis, 1989) was
developed. Furthermore, the possible moderating effects of users'
gender, age and level of education were analyzed. It was found that
external determinants such as user training, user fit, technological
complexity and trainers' support were important indicators in the
success of adopting these solutions. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

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.},

Title = {Financing A Free-for-All: Crowdfunding Open-Source Software},
Journal = {SMALL BUSINESS ECONOMICS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {63},

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 = {A number of software reliability growth models have been reported in the
literature for open source software (OSS) systems but the effect of
up-gradations on the reliability growth of multi-releases of such
software systems has been discussed by a few. In this paper, the
discrete modeling framework has been proposed to study the reliability
growth process of OSS systems with multiple releases. The proposed model
is based upon the assumption that during up-gradation some new faults
are introduced in the code in addition to the left over fault content of
the previous version. To validate our model, we have chosen two
successful open source projects-Mozilla and Apache for its multi release
failure datasets. Graphs representing goodness of fit of the proposed
model have been drawn. The parameter estimates and measures of goodness
of fit criteria suggest that the proposed software reliability growth
model for multi-release OSS fits the actual datasets very well. An
optimal release policy has been formulated by taking into account the
cost of fault removal during testing and operational phases and
reliability targets pre-specified by the decision makers. In addition,
numerical example along with the sensitivity analysis has been provided
to illustrate optimal release policy.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software projects base their operation on a collaborative
structure for knowledge exchange in the form of provision or reception
of information, expertise and feedback on the creation of source code.
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.},

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.},

Abstract = {Scientific research increasingly relies on open source software (OSS).
Funding OSS development requires intentional focus on issues of
scholarly credit, unique forms of labor, maintenance, governance, and
inclusive community-building. Such issues cut across different
scientific disciplines that make them of interest to a variety of
funders and institutions but may present challenges in understanding
generalized needs. Here we present 10 simple rules for investing in
scientific OSS and the teams who build and maintain it.
Author summary
As funders of scientific research, we have a unique knowledge of the
challenges that researchers face in finding support for the many parts
of their projects. Scientific software is a central part of the research
process and is increasingly in need of investments to ensure continued
advancement and progress. Here we draw on our experiences as funders to
provide guidance and considerations for funders and other community
members interested in supporting scientific software. We address
specific issues related to software, including contributor community
development, governance, sustainability, and diversity and inclusion.},

perspective},

Abstract = {This paper uses a large data set of Free Open Source Software (FOSS)
projects obtained from SourceForge.net to investigate survival factors
at various stages of a FOSS project's lifecycle. It distinguishes FOSS
projects that are still at the initial stage of development from those
at the growth stage, and posits that the relative importance of the
identified survival factors changes as FOSS projects evolve from one
stage to the next. The results demonstrate the changing effect of
factors over time affecting FOSS survival. Restrictive FOSS licenses and
large internal and external networks are found to present advantages for
projects that are at the initial stage, but the advantages dissipate as
the projects move into the growth stage. Projects with high-quality
external networks, greater levels of user/developer participation and
service quality, and projects targeted at technical users have a higher
likelihood of surviving at both stages. These findings show that a FOSS
project team needs to be aware of the conditioning effect of time and
focus on the appropriate mix of survival factors as the project moves
from one stage to the next. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

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 = {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 = {In the context of digital transformation, both standards and Free and
Open Source Software (FOSS) can be seen as key to success for
innovation. However, the increasing role of FOSS in the ICT sector has
provoked the question of interplay and compatibility between FOSS and

overview of the different licensing regimes, FOSS licenses and fair,
reasonable, and non-discriminatory (FRAND)-based licenses, and to shed
some light on the current debate by analyzing possible tensions between
some of the most prominent FOSS licenses and their interaction with
FRAND-based patent licenses. The article will begin with an overview of
the history and context of FOSS licenses and FRAND-based licensing
regimes, continue with a legal review of the actual language of
prominent FOSS licenses, and provide further thoughts on future
opportunities and challenges for the interaction between FOSS projects
and standard processes, with a particular view on FOSS implementations
of standards.},

aim to create an understanding of what motivates people to participate

forces. 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

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.},

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 = {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.},

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 = {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.},

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 = {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 = {We investigate how intellectual property rights (IPR) enforcement

success of related OSS projects. We hypothesize that when an IPR
enforcement action is filed, user interest and developer activity will
be negatively affected in two types of related OSS projects-those that
display technology overlap with the OSS application in dispute and
business projects that are specific to the disputed OSS platform. We
examine two widely publicized lawsuits-SCO v. IBM and FireStar/DataTern
v. Red Hat-using data from SourceForge. net. Our
difference-in-difference estimates show that in the months following the
filing of SCO v. IBM, OSS projects that exhibit high technology overlap
with the disputed OSS experienced a 15\% greater decline in user
interest and 45\% less developer activity than projects in the control
group; OSS projects that are intended for business and specific to the
disputed OSS platform had a 34\% greater decline in user interest and
86\% less developer activity than the control group. We find similar
results following the filing of FireStar/DataTern v. Red Hat. Our
results are also robust to a variety of robustness checks, including a
falsification exercise and subsample analyses.},

most studies on OSS success are either qualitative or exploratory in
nature. Hence, to identify the factors that influence HMIOSS success and
establish generalize ability, an empirical study measuring HMIOSS

usage. In this study, we develop a HMIOSS success model from a previous
information systems success Model incorporating the characteristics of
HMI domain. This research contributes towards advancing theoretical
understanding of HMIOSS success as well as offering practitioners for

Abstract = {We examine the relationship between communications by core and
peripheral members and Free/Libre Open Source Software project success.
The study uses data from 74 projects in the Apache Software Foundation
Incubator. We conceptualize project success in terms of success building
a community, as assessed by graduation from the Incubator. We compare
successful and unsuccessful projects on volume of communication and on
use of inclusive pronouns as an indication of efforts to create intimacy
among team members. An innovation of the paper is that use of inclusive
pronouns is measured using natural language processing techniques. We
also compare the volume and content of communication produced by core
(committer) and peripheral members and by those peripheral members who
are later elected to be core members. We find that volume of
communication is related to project success but use of inclusive
pronouns does not distinguish successful projects. Core members exhibit
more contribution and use of inclusive pronouns than peripheral members.},

Abstract = {The transition to sustainable electronics necessitates both resource
conservation in hardware production and shifts in software usage. This
paper investigates the contribution of Free/Libre Open-Source Software
(FLOSS) towards fair, and conflict-free practices through promoting
collaboration, transparency, and resource accessibility. Our study
investigates how the adoption of decentralized online social networks
(DOSN) like Mastodon (microblogging) and PeerTube (video sharing), which
operate on the ActivityPub protocol, contributes to sustainable
practices within the electronics sector by fostering a federated
universe (Fediverse). It is demonstrated how FLOSS, in the form of
Alternative Mobile Operating Systems (AMOS) including Android
open-source custom ROMs or mobile Linux systems, gain traction due to
enhanced privacy protection, improved usability through tracker-free
software and alternative app stores, and adherence to EU directives on
the right to self-repair. As AMOS mature for everyday use, they attract
consumers, thereby contributing towards sustainable electronics
development. Furthermore, the Fediverse's Application Programming
Interfaces (APIs) enable seamless information exchange between
instances, allowing for nuanced moderation that safeguards user privacy.
This approach contrasts with centralized commercial networks, where
algorithm-driven operations often prioritize profit over user
well-being.},

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 = {Many technologies in our everyday lives are expressions of deliberate
and protracted political struggles among interested groups. 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.},

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
efficiencies.},

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.},

Month = {JAN},
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.

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.},

face many different barriers that hinder their contribution, leading in
many cases to dropout. Many projects leverage the contribution of
outsiders and the sustainability of the project relies on retaining some
of these newcomers. In this research, we aim at understanding the
barriers that hinder onboarding of newcomers to OSS projects, by means
of different empirical approaches, and proposing a set of strategies
that can be used to support the first step of newcomers.},

Abstract = {GitHub is successful open source software platform which attract many
developers. In GitHub, developers are allowed to fork repositories and
copy repositories without asking for permission, which make contribution
to projects much easier than it has ever been. It is significant to
predict the number of forks for open source software projects. The
prediction can help GitHub to recommend popular projects, and guide
developers to find projects which are likely to succeed and worthy of
their contribution.
In this paper, we use stepwise regression and design a model to predict
the number of forks for open source software projects. Then we collect
datasets of 1,000 repositories through GitHub's APIs. We use datasets of
700 repositories to compute the weight of attributes and realize the
model. Then we use other 300 repositories to verify the prediction
accuracy of our model. Advantages of our model include: (1) Some
attributes used in our model are new. This is because GitHub is
different from traditional open source software platforms and has some
new features. These new features are used to build our model. (2) Our
model uses project information within t month after its creation, and
predicts the number of forks in the month T (t < T). It allows users to
set the combination of time parameters and satisfy their own needs. (3)
Our model predicts the exact number of forks, rather than the range of
the number of forks (4) Experiments show that our model has high
prediction accuracy. For example, we use project information with 3
months to prediction the number of forks in month 6 after its creation.
The correlation coefficient is as high as 0.992, and the median number
of absolute difference between prediction value and actual value is only
1.8. It shows that the predicted number of forks is very close to the
actual number of forks. Our model also has high prediction accuracy when
we set other time parameters.},

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.},

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.},

Abstract = {The global open source movement has provided software users with more
choices, lower software acquisition cost, more flexible software
customization, and possibly higher quality software product. Although
the development of open source software is dynamic and it encourages
innovations, the process can be chaotic and involve members around the
globe. An Open Source Software Development (OSSD) process model to
enhance the survivability of OSSD projects is needed. This research uses
the grounded theory approach to derive a Phase-Role-Skill-Responsibility
(PRSR) OSSD process model. The three OSSD process phases - Launch Stage,
Before the First Release, and Between Releases - address the
characteristics of the OSSD process as well as factors that influence
the OSSD process. In the PRSR model, different roles/actors are required
to have different skills and responsibilities corresponding to each of
the three OSSD process phases. This qualitative research contributes to
the software development literature as well as open source practice.},

systems, a risk. And, simultaneously an opportunity and a challenge for
rigourous, mathematically based, methods which aim at pushing software
analysis and development to the level of a mature engineering
discipline.
This paper discusses such a challenge and proposes a number of ways in
which open source development may benefit from the whole patrimony of
formal methods.},

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.},

Abstract = {Some of the quality parameters for any successful open source software
may be attributed to affordability, availability of source code,
re-distributability, and modifiability etc. Quality of software can be
further improvised subsequently by either users or associated developers
by constantly monitoring some of the reliability aspects. Since multiple
users are allowed to modify the code there is a potential threat for
security, which might degrade the reliability of software. Bug tracking
systems are often considered to monitor various software faults,
detected mostly in open source software projects. Various authors have
made research in this direction by applying different techniques in
order to improve the reliability of open source software projects. In
this work, an various machine learning models have been implemented to
examine the reliability of the software. An extensive numerical
illustration has also been presented for bug data recorded on bug
tracking system. The effectiveness of machine learning models for
estimating the level of faults associated with the systems has been
verified by comparing it with similar approaches as available in the
literature.},

addition to the traditional technology adoption variables the findings
stress the importance of social identification as a key driver of OSS
adoption. The proposed model provides a useful decision support tool for
assessing and proactively designing interventions targeted at successful

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,
too.},

Abstract = {`Open Source' is a 20-40 year old approach to licensing and distributing
software that has recently burst into public view. Against conventional
wisdom this approach has been wildly successful in the general software
market-probably because the openness lets programmers the world over
obtain, critique, use, and build upon the source code without licensing
fees. Linux, a UNIX-like operating system, is the best known success.
But computer scientists at the University of California, Berkeley began
the tradition of software sharing in the mid 1970s with BSD UNIX and
distributed the major internet network protocols as source code without
a fee. Medical informatics has its own history of Open Source
distribution: Massachusetts General's COSTAR and the Veterans
Administration's VISTA software have been distributed as source code at
no cost for decades. Bioinformatics, our sister field, has embraced the
Open Source movement and developed rich libraries of open-source
software. Open Source has now gained a tiny foothold in health care
(OSCAR GEHR, OpenEMed). Medical informatics researchers and funding
agencies should support and nurture this movement. In a world where
open-source modules were integrated into operational health care
systems, informatics researchers would have real world niches into which
they could engraft and test their software inventions. This could
produce a burst of innovation that would help solve the many problems of
the health care system. We at the Regenstrief Institute are doing our
part by moving all of our development to the open-source model. (C) 2002

Abstract = {This work exposes a new paradigm for the creation and publication of
textbooks: open source. The phrase open source is borrowed from the
computer software industry, where the word source has a technical
meaning explained in this paper; open source software is software which
has been developed by many collaborators using the internet to produce a
final product. The contributors receive no financial compensation, yet
there have been many successful open source software projects (Linux,
Open Office, Apache, etc.). Open source textbooks use a similar
financial model; the authors and contributors receive no direct
financial compensation for their work. Contributors are listed in the
produced work as primary author(s), co-authors, contributors, minor
contributors, etc. according to the magnitude of their contribution. The
produced work is available free for users on the internet. This paper
will explain the open source process and will provide justification for
open source as an effective paradigm; it will also present some existing
open source textbook projects, as well as the author's own open source
textbook project.},

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 = {This paper develops models for programmer participation and effort
estimation in open source software projects and employs the results to
assess the efficiency of open source software creation. Successful
development of such models will be important for decision makers of
various kinds. We propose hypotheses based on a prior case study on
manpower function and effort modeling. A large data set retrieved from a
project repository is used to test these hypotheses. The main results
are that if Norden-Rayleigh-based approaches are used, they need to be
complemented in order to account for the addition of new features during
a product life cycle, and that programmer-participation based effort
models result in distinctly lower estimations of effort than those based
on output metrics, such as lines of code. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All

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.},

Approach},

Pages = {1052-1068},
Abstract = {The global open source movement has provided software users with more
choices, lower software acquisition cost, more flexible software
customization, and possibly higher quality software product. Although
the development of open source software is dynamic and it encourages
innovations, the process can be chaotic and involve members around the
globe. An Open Source Software Development (OSSD) process model to
enhance the survivability of OSSD projects is needed. This research uses
the grounded theory approach to derive a Phase-Role-Skill-Responsibility
(PRSR) OSSD process model. The three OSSD process phases - Launch Stage,
Before the First Release, and Between Releases - address the
characteristics of the OSSD process as well as factors that influence
the OSSD process. In the PRSR model, different roles/actors are required
to have different skills and responsibilities corresponding to each of
the three OSSD process phases. This qualitative research contributes to
the software development literature as well as open source practice.},

been downloaded more than 100K times and believed to have the required
modularity trait to be successful. The software metrics related to
modularity in class, package and system level of these projects are
extracted and analyzed. The similarities found are then analyzed to
determine the class quality, package quality, and then combined with
system architecture measure to formulate the Modularity Index. The case

Abstract = {This panel will present several experiences in involving students in
Open Source Software (OSS) projects from the perspectives of both the
instructor and a member of the OSS community. OSS is growing rapidly and
gaining market share in both industry (e. g., Linux and Mozilla) as well
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 = {The Open Source model has got a serious momenntum over last few years
and has proven its benefits also in complex (especially horizontal)
applications. 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

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.},

can be accomplished by matching pharmacophores, heavy atoms or a
combination of the two. All methods have been successfully validated on
eight comprehensive datasets previously gathered by Sutherland and
co-workers. High computational performance has been attained through
efficient parallelization of the code. The unsupervised nature of the
alignment algorithms, together with its scriptable interface, make
Open3DALIGN an ideal component of high-throughput, automated

Title = {The Role of Open-Source Software in the Energy Sector},
Journal = {ENERGIES},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {16},
Number = {16},
Month = {AUG},
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.},

Title = {Specvis: Free and open-source software for visual field examination},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {12},
Number = {10},
Month = {OCT 13},
Abstract = {Visual field impairment affects more than 100 million people globally.
However, due to the lack of the access to appropriate ophthalmic
healthcare in undeveloped regions as a result of associated costs and
expertise this number may be an underestimate. Improved access to
affordable diagnostic software designed for visual field examination
could slow the progression of diseases, such as glaucoma, allowing for
early diagnosis and intervention. We have developed Specvis, a free and
open-source application written in Java programming language that can
run on any personal computer to meet this requirement (http://www.
specvis. pl/). Specvis was tested on glaucomatous, retinitis pigmentosa
and stroke patients and the results were compared to results using the
Medmont M700 Automated Static Perimeter. The application was also tested
for inter-test intrapersonal variability. The results from both
validation studies indicated low inter-test intrapersonal variability,
and suitable reliability for a fast and simple assessment of visual
field impairment. Specvis easily identifies visual field areas of zero
sensitivity and allows for evaluation of its levels throughout the
visual field. Thus, Specvis is a new, reliable application that can be
successfully used for visual field examination and can fill the gap
between confrontation and perimetry tests. The main advantages of
Specvis over existing methods are its availability (free), affordability
(runs on any personal computer), and reliability (comparable to
high-cost solutions).},

Abstract = {The success of open source software (OSS) projects heavily depends on
sustained participation of project members. However, turnover of members
and the ensuing instability have become very common. To better
understand the turnover of members in OSS projects, we base our study on
Herzberg's two-factor theory to investigate whether hygiene factors will
lead to members' dissatisfaction. At the same time, we draw on Mobley's
model of withdrawal decision process to hypothesize the relationship
between dissatisfaction and perceived turnover. We develop a research
model and present hypotheses that should be tested in the future. To
empirically assess this model, we intend to survey OSS project members
through the largest development platform Sourceforge. This study will
provide a new insight into how the turnover of members emerges in OSS
projects. The findings of this progressive research will have
implications for both practice and theory.},

Journal = {LIBRARY HI TECH},

Volume = {32},

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 = {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 = {Women represent less than 24\% of the software development industry and
suffer from various types of prejudice and biases. In Open Source
Software projects, despite a variety of efforts to increase diversity
and multi-gendered participation, women are even more underrepresented
(less than 10\%). My research focuses on answering the question: How can
OSS communities increase women's participation in OSS projects? I will
identify the different OSS career pathways, and develop a holistic view
of women's motivations to join or leave OSS, along with 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 = {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 = {Open source software is gaining popularity and significance in recent
years. Similarly, testability is a residual software property which the
developers and users no longer ignore. This is because if the
testability of software is high, the test effort and development cost
decrease proportionally. This is the case because test effort is highly
affected by testability. In this paper, we investigate the relationship
between test effort and success of the open source software by employing
source codes and easily accessible parameters from the repository.
Moreover, the proposed methods are empirically examined by analyzing 17
open source software projects. According to the empirical results, a
meaningful positive correlation is obtained between test effort and
success. This implies the importance of preparing test scenarios and
codes to obtain successful open source software project.},

and Organizational Culture. Meanwhile, users situated on the demand side
will function from the view of user innovation.},

Volume = {20},

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. Harvard Business

Abstract = {Computers have transformed from single isolated devices to entry points
into a worldwide network of information exchange. Consequently, support
in the exchange of data, information, and knowledge is becoming the key
issue in computer technology today. The increasing volume of data
available on the Web makes information retrieval a tedious and difficult
task. Researchers are now exploring the possibility of creating a
semantic web, in which meaning is made explicit, allowing machines to
process and integrate web resources intelligently. The vision of the
semantic web introduces the next generation of the Web by establishing a
layer of machine-understandable data. The success of the semantic web
depends on the easy creation, integration and use of semantic data,
which will depend on web ontology. The faceted approach towards
analyzing and representing knowledge given by S R Ranganathan would be
useful in this regard. Ontology development in different fields is one
such area where this approach given by Ranganathan could be applied.
This paper presents a case of developing ontology for the field of

Abstract = {To simplify the usage of the Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), extending
their use to a great number of applications, fully autonomous operation
is needed. There are many open-source architecture frameworks for UAS
that claim the autonomous operation of UAS, but they still have two main
open issues: (1) level of autonomy, being in most of the cases limited
and (2) versatility, being most of them designed specifically for some
applications or aerial platforms.
As a response to these needs and issues, this paper presents Aerostack,
a system architecture and open-source multi-purpose software framework
for autonomous multi-UAS operation. To provide higher degrees of
autonomy, Aerostack's system architecture integrates state of the art
concepts of intelligent, cognitive and social robotics, based on five
layers: reactive, executive, deliberative, reflective, and social. To be
a highly versatile practical solution, Aerostack's open-source software
framework includes the main components to execute the architecture for
fully autonomous missions of swarms of UAS; a collection of ready-to-use
and flight proven modular components that can be reused by the users and
developers; and compatibility with five well known aerial platforms, as
well as a high number of sensors.
Aerostack has been validated during three years by its successful use on
many research projects, international competitions and exhibitions. To
corroborate this fact, this paper also presents Aerostack carrying out a
fictional fully autonomous indoors search and rescue mission.},

Abstract = {In engineering design, the selection of the optimal design solution
represents a critical phase for the development of successful products.
In this paper, we present ELIGERE, an open source decision support
system targeted at engineering design applications. It allows to rank
multiple design solutions with respect to different evaluation criteria
according to the evaluations provided by a group of experts. ELIGERE is
composed by three main modules: (1) a distributed web application, for
generation and participation to the decision making session; (2) a
mathematical engine, based on the fuzzy analytical hierarchy process, to
quantify the results of the decision making session according to the
evaluation of the experts; (3) a relational database, to collect and
store data. The most important contribution of this paper is introducing
a practical and effective software tool that facilitates decision-making
analysis based on the fuzzy analytical hierarchy process, thereby
allowing better-informed choices on concept selection, as it has been
designed with a specific focus on the engineering field. In this paper
we describe the key concepts of ELIGERE and its modalities of use in
several real use cases. Finally, we compare ELIGERE with the widely used
general purpose decision support software based on the fuzzy analytical
hierarchy process.},

Abstract = {Software metrics play a key role in measuring attributes that are
important for the success of a software project. Measurements of these
metrics tell us various key aspects of system. This in turn supports
knowledgeable decision making by which we can enhance the quality of
system. Maintenance is a process of revisions or corrections made to
software systems after their first release. The key feature of software
development is change. Hence it is important to develop software that is
easy to modify and is thus maintainable.
This paper evaluates the existing Oman and Hagemeister maintainability
index model which calculates maintainability index (MI) based on
Cyclomatic Complexity, Lines of code and Halsted volume. For this
purpose, software metric datasets of Lucene, which is open source
software of 163085 lines of code are used, and it is shown that the
existing Oman and Hagemeister maintainability index mode model is not a
good a predictor of maintainability. A new maintainability index model
is proposed with a new set of predictor metrics. The new proposed model
is a marked improvement over the existing Oman and Hagemeister
maintainability index model. The coefficient of determination (R-2) of
the new proposed maintainability model is 0.984 and correlation
coefficient(R) is 0.992 as compared to the Oman and Hagemeister model
whose correlation coefficient (R) is 0.320},

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 = {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.},

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.},

Abstract = {Introduction Recruiting undergraduate students to participate in
research has long been an established practice within psychology.
Although this data source has weaknesses, this involvement in the
research process has considerable pedagogical value in teaching students
research methodology. Statement of the Problem Most common software
packages used to manage participant pools tend to be expensive, to the
extent that it prohibits access for small institutions and departments.
Literature Review Highlighting the problem, we cite research related to
using undergraduates as participants, pedagogical value of these
experiences, and current trends in software distribution. We then
provide evidence of successful implementation of open-source software
(OSS) in educational settings, and conclude with OSS options capable of
addressing the problem of access. Teaching Implications By providing
students research experiences, both as a researcher and as a
participant, we enhance their understanding of this process. Secondary
to this, we can foster within them a skill set that is valuable to
disciplines outside of academia. Conclusion The implementation of an OSS
system to manage research participants provides a cost-effective means
to expand the learning and research opportunities of available to
students.},

Abstract = {In recent years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a key element
in digital platforms for improving performance. Despite vast body of
knowledge it is yet unclear on how AI can be successfully integrated
into platforms and what are the key mechanisms that drive the
performance in digital platforms such as open source. To investigate
this phenomena a survey has been conducted to understand how AI
capabilities (i.e., capabilities associated with AI resources/usage) on
Open Source Software (OSS) team performance. The analysis highlights the
role of trust in driving OSS team performance and suggests that
designers need to pay more attention to cognition when dealing with AI
technologies and opportunities.},

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.},

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.},

In this article we investigate the structure and the coordination
practices adopted by development teams during the bug-fixing process,
which is considered one of main areas of FLOSS project success. In
particular, based on a codification of the messages recorded in the bug
tracking system of four projects, we identify the accomplished tasks,

adoption requires not only an analysis of aspects related to the code,
such as code quality, frequency of updates and new version releases, but
also an evaluation of the quality of support offered in related online

messages and issue trackers can provide information about the extent to
which requests are being addressed and issues are being resolved, the
percentage of issues that are not being fixed, the cases where the user
acknowledged that the issue was successfully resolved, etc. These
indicators can provide potential adopters of the OSS with estimates
about the level of available support. We present a detailed hierarchy of
content types of online forum messages and issue tracker comments and a
corpus of messages annotated accordingly. We discuss our experiments to
classify forum messages and issue tracker comments into content-related
classes, i.e. to assign them to nodes of the hierarchy. The results are
very encouraging.},

Abstract = {As firms increasingly sanction an open sourcing strategy, the question
of which open source project to undertake remains tentative. The lack of
established metrics makes it difficult to formulate such strategy. While
many projects have been formed and created, only a few managed to remain
active. With the majority of these projects failing, firms need a
reliable set of criteria to assess what makes a project appealing not
only to developers but also to visitors, users and commercial sponsors.
In this paper, we develop a theoretical model to explore the contextual
and causal factors of project attractiveness in inducing activities such
as source code contribution, software maintenance, and usage. We test
our model with data derived from more than 4000 projects spanning 4
years. Our main findings include that projects' set of conditions such
as license restrictiveness and their available resources provide the
context that directly influence the amount of work activities observed
in the projects. It was also found that indirect and unintended
contributions such as recommending software, despite of being
non-technical, cannot be ignored for project activeness, diffusion and
sustainability. Finally, our analysis provide evidence that higher
attractiveness leads to more code-related activities with the downside
of slowing down responsiveness to address projects' tasks, such as the
implementation of new features and bug fixes. Our model underscores the
significance of the reinforcing effects of attractiveness and work
activities in open source projects, giving us the opportunity to discuss
strategies to manage common traps such as the liability of newness. We
conclude by discussing the applicability of the research model to other
user-led initiatives. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

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.},

Abstract = {End users' positive response is essential for the success of any
software. This is true for both commercial and Open Source Software
(OSS). OSS is popular not only because of its availability, which is
usually free but due to the user support it provides, generally through
public platforms. The study model of this research establishes a
relationship between OSS user support and available support tools. To
conduct this research, we used a dataset of 100 OSS projects in
different categories and examined five user support tools provided by
different OSS projects. The results show that project trackers, user
mailing lists, and updated versions have a significant role in gaining
user support. However, we were unable to find a significant association
between user support and documentation, as well as between user support
and the troubleshooting guidelines provided by OSS projects.},

Abstract = {This paper represents the evaluation and integration of Open Source
Software (OSS) technologies to enhance the learning of engineers and
scientists within the university. The utilization of OSS is essential as
costs around the world continue to rise for education, institutions must
become innovative in the ways they teach and grow Science, Technology,
Engineering, \& Mathematics (STEM) majors. To do this effectively
professors and administrative staff should push toward the utilization
of OSS and other available tools to enhance or supplement currently
available tools with minimal integration costs. The OSS applications
would allow students the ability to learn critical technological skills
for success at small fraction of the cost. OSS also provides faculty
members the ability to have students dissect source code, analyze
network traffic, create virtual instances of real Operating Systems
(OSs), and prepare students for low level software development. It is
critical that all institutions look at alternatives in providing
training and delivering educational material regardless of limitations
going forward as the world continues to be more global due to the
increased use of technologies everywhere. Through reviewing the
available technology, possible implementations of these technologies,
and the application of these items in industry could provide a starting
point in integrating these tools into academia. When administrators or
faculty debate the possibilities of OSS, gaming, and simulation tools
this applied research provides a guide for changing the ability to
develop future scientists and engineers that will be competitive on a
global level in STEM fields},

Title = {OptFlux: an open-source software platform for in silico 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.},

archives of source code change history and problem reports we quantify
aspects of developer participation, core team size, code ownership,
productivity, defect density, and problem resolution intervals for these
OSS projects. We develop several hypotheses by comparing the Apache
project with several commercial projects. We then test and refine
several of these hypotheses, based on an analysis of Mozilla data. We
conclude with thoughts about the prospects for high- performance
commercial/ open source process hybrids.},

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 response to the deficiency in existing system security assessment
methods that often lack research on the propagation risks caused by the
open source software supply chain (OSSSC). This paper proposes a system
security assessment method that integrates the risk relationships of
open source software (OSS). Firstly, an OSS risk propagation
relationship graph is constructed, and the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy
Process (FAHP)-entropy weight method is adopted to allocate weights to
the weakness assessment indicators of OSS, thereby improving the
accuracy of quantifying OSS propagation risks. Then, on the attack
graph, the analysis of threat values to host nodes and the probability
of successful attack paths are optimized from three perspectives:
vulnerabilities, OSSSC, and hosts. Experimental results demonstrate that
this method, by combining open source risk factors and conducting
multi-dimensional analysis, can more effectively assess the security
threats faced by systems, providing a more accurate basis for security
defense.},

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.},

Title = {Open Source software and social networks: Disruptive alternatives for
medical imaging},

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 = {This paper provides empirical evidence about how free/libre open source
software development teams self-organize their work, specifically, how
tasks are assigned to project team members. 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. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {A new method to increase the signal-to-noise ratio S/N of electron
backscatter patterns (EBSPs) based upon principal component analysis
(PCA) is presented. The PCA denoising method is applied to ten scans of
EBSPs from the same region of interest of a recrystallised nickel sample
acquired with a decreasing S/N, achieved by reducing the exposure time
while increasing the camera gain accordingly. That PCA denoising
increases S/N in EBSPs is demonstrated by comparing indexing success
rates after both Hough and dictionary indexing (HI and DI) of the Ni
patterns having undergone one of four processing routes: i) standard
static and dynamic background corrections (standard corrections), ii)
standard corrections and pattern averaging with the four closest
neighbours, iii) standard corrections and PCA denoising, and iv)
standard corrections and pattern averaging followed by PCA denoising.
Both pattern averaging and PCA denoising increases the indexing success
rates for both indexing approaches for the studied Ni scans, with the
former processing route providing the better success rates. The best
success rates are obtained after pattern averaging followed by PCA
denoising. The potential of PCA denoising to reveal additional pattern
details compared to standard corrections and pattern averaging is
demonstrated in a pattern from an orthoclase (KAlSi3O8) grain in a
geological sample. Software code, and the Ni data sets, are released
alongside this article as part of KIKUCHIPY, an open-source software
package dedicated to processing and analysis of EBSPs.},

Abstract = {Spinal instrumentation and surgical manipulations may cause loss of
navigation accuracy requiring an efficient re-alignment of the patient
anatomy with pre-operative images during surgery. While intra-operative
ultrasound (iUS) guidance has shown clear potential to reduce surgery
time, compared with clinical computed tomography (CT) guidance, rapid
registration aiming to correct for patient misalignment has not been
addressed. In this article, we present an open-source platform for
pedicle screw navigation using iUS imaging. The alignment method is
based on rigid registration of CT to iUS vertebral images and has been
designed for fast and fully automatic patient re-alignment in the
operating room. Two steps are involved: first, we use the iUS probe's
trajectory to achieve an initial coarse registration; then, the
registration transform is refined by simultaneously optimizing gradient
orientation alignment and mean of iUS intensities passing through the
CT-defined posterior surface of the vertebra. We evaluated our approach
on a lumbosacral section of a porcine cadaver with seven vertebral
levels. We achieved a median target registration error of 1.47 mm (100\%
success rate, defined by a target registration error <2 mm) when
applying the probe's trajectory initial alignment. The approach
exhibited high robustness to partial visibility of the vertebra with
success rates of 89.86\% and 88.57\% when missing either the left or
right part of the vertebra and robustness to initial misalignments with
a success rate of 83.14\% for random starts within +/- 20 degrees
rotation and +/- 20 mm translation. Our graphics processing unit
implementation achieves an efficient registration time under 8 s, which
makes the approach suitable for clinical application. (E-mail:

a community, as assessed by graduation from the Incubator. We compare
successful and unsuccessful projects on volume of communication by core
(committer) and peripheral community members and on use of inclusive
pronouns as an indication of efforts to create intimacy among team
members. An innovation of the paper is that use of inclusive pronouns is
measured using natural language processing techniques. We find that core

their use of inclusive pronouns, and that volume of communication is
related to project success.},

Abstract = {Nowadays, software development societies have given more precedence to
Open Source Software (OSS). There is much research aimed at
understanding the OSS society to sustain the OSS product. To lead an OSS
project to a successful conclusion, researchers study how developers
change source codes called patches in project repositories. In existing
studies, we found an argument in the conventional patch acceptance
detection procedure. It was so simplified that it omitted important
cases from the analysis, and would lead researchers to wrong
conclusions. In this research, we propose an algorithm to overcome the
problem. To prove out our algorithm, we constructed a framework and
conducted two case studies. As a result, we came to a new and

Abstract = {This paper uses a literature survey to gain an insight into existing
studies on the success of open source software (OSS) projects. Current
literature has studied various aspects of OSS success such as project
activity, user interest, and project effectiveness. However, this study
focuses on user interest because, according to prior research, a higher
user interest contributes to positive project outcomes (e.g. product
quality, project performance, and project vitality). Based on the
literature survey in this study, we found 43 conceptually distinct
determinants of user interest in OSS projects. We classified them into 7
broad categories of including project status, project characteristics,
community contribution, process, network structure, product
characteristics, and resources. Implications for practice and research
are also presented.},

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
future Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) and
external efforts to release open-source software.},

interview and survey study},

Month = {MAY},
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.},

Development: An Artifact-Level Analysis},

Volume = {32},

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 = {In this article, we summarize a five-year US National Science Foundation
funded study designed to investigate the factors that lead some open
source projects to ongoing collaborative success while many others
become abandoned. Our primary interest was to conduct a study that was
closely representative of the population of open source software
projects in the world, rather than focus on the more-often studied,
high-profile successful cases. After building a large database of
projects (n=174,333) and implementing a major survey of open source
developers (n=1403), we were able to conduct statistical analyses to
investigate over forty theoretically-based testable hypotheses. Our data
firmly support what we call the conventional theory of open source
software, showing that projects start small, and, in successful cases,
grow slightly larger in terms of team size. We describe the ``virtuous
circle{''} supporting conventional wisdom of open source collaboration
that comes out of this analysis, and we discuss two other interesting
findings related to developer motivations and how team members find each
other. Each of these findings is related to the sustainability of these
projects.},

Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {14},

Month = {DEC 30},
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 = {Free and open source software, holding a strategic position in knowledge
economy, reaffirms the critical role of governments and regional
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,
organisations and territorial administrations collectively represent a
major software user with great impact on the software market. In this
sense, software selection in the public sector is a highly political and
strategic process: various collateral implications and policy aspects
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
software by European public administrations. The recommended policy
actions are mainly based on review of the current policy framework. The
main goal of this manuscript is to contribute in providing policy
orientations and proposing actions that can help governments, public
administrations and European institutions fully harvest the benefits of
open source. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {In this paper we present results of an NSF funded project on exploring
and understanding cyber learning that happens in online open source
software (OSS) communities for technical support. We look across
multiple OSS support communities (Firefox, Java, and Koha) to understand
the behavior of newcomers in these communities, the role that the
community response plays in their continued participation and newcomer
best practices. 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

Abstract = {The European `Floods Directive' 2007/60/EC focuses on the development of
flood risk maps and management plans on the basis of the most
appropriate and advanced tools. This pushed a paradigm shift for moving
to sustainable development through processes of stakeholder engagement
to improve the efficiency and transparency of decision processes. In
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
economic values of the exposed assets.},

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 = {This article presents research and development of a collaboration cloud
computing application for water resources based on open source software.
The cloud computing application is using a hybrid deployment model of
public - private cloud, running on two separate virtual machines (VMs).
The first one (VM1) is running on Amazon web services (AWS) and the
second one (VM2) is running on a Xen cloud platform. The collaborative
cloud application has four web services for 1) data infrastructure (DI),
2) support for water resources modelling (WRM), 3) user management and
4) water resources optimization (WRO). The most important characteristic
of the cloud application is a real- time geo-collaboration platform
supporting multiple users. This research shows the capability to scale
and distribute the cloud application between several VMs. The cloud
application was successfully tested in the Zletovica case study in a
distributed computer environment with concurred multiple access.},

Abstract = {In open source software (OSS) communities, volunteers collaborate and
integrate expertise to develop the software online via the Internet in a
decentralized, highly interactive and knowledge-intensive process.
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.},

biomedical studies},
Journal = {BMC BIOINFORMATICS},
Year = {2007},
Volume = {8},
Month = {FEB 9},
Abstract = {Background: One of the crucial aspects of day-to-day laboratory
information management is collection, storage and retrieval of
information about research subjects and biomedical samples. An efficient
link between sample data and experiment results is absolutely imperative
for a successful outcome of a biomedical study. Currently available
software solutions are largely limited to large-scale, expensive
commercial Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS). Acquiring
such LIMS indeed can bring laboratory information management to a higher
level, but often implies sufficient investment of time, effort and
funds, which are not always available. There is a clear need for
lightweight open source systems for patient and sample information
management.
Results: We present a web-based tool for submission, management and
retrieval of sample and research subject data. The system secures
confidentiality by separating anonymized sample information from
individuals' records. It is simple and generic, and can be customised
for various biomedical studies. Information can be both entered and
accessed using the same web interface. User groups and their privileges
can be defined. The system is open-source and is supplied with an
on-line tutorial and necessary documentation. It has proven to be
successful in a large international collaborative project.
Conclusion: The presented system closes the gap between the need and the
availability of lightweight software solutions for managing information
in biomedical studies involving human research subjects.},

Abstract = {The term ``open source software{''} was formally introduced in the early
2000s to describe source code which are available to the public to be
used and modified by anyone. Like any innovative idea attaining a
certain maturity level, open source communities have reached a degree of
formalization in their structures and practices. This also holds for
knowledge management and its related measures in open source
communities. Therefore, we investigate the patterns and structures in
communication and collaboration of the currently most successful open
source software projects through a case study approach. Herewith, we
reveal how the different knowledge management aspects are practiced in
these internet communities. Due to the projects' success, we identify
similarities as good practices and derive practical recommendations for
action for other open source communities as well as research
opportunities regarding knowledge management in open source software
projects.},

Abstract = {Reuse of software components, either closed or open source, is
considered to be one of the most important best practices in software
engineering, since it reduces development cost and improves software
quality. However, since reused components are (by definition) generic,
they need to be customized and integrated into a specific system before
they can be useful. Since this integration is system-specific, the
integration effort is non-negligible and increases maintenance costs,
especially if more than one component needs to be integrated. This paper
performs an empirical study of multi-component integration in the
context of three successful open source distributions (Debian, Ubuntu
and FreeBSD). Such distributions integrate thousands of open source
components with an operating system kernel to deliver a coherent
software product to millions of users worldwide. We empirically
identified seven major integration activities performed by the
maintainers of these distributions, documented how these activities are
being performed by the maintainers, then evaluated and refined the
identified activities with input from six maintainers of the three
studied distributions. The documented activities provide a common
vocabulary for component integration in open source distributions and
outline a roadmap for future research on software integration.},

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.},

Abstract = {Background: Projects of all sizes and impact are leveraging the services
of the social coding platform GitHub to collaborate. Since users'
information and actions are recorded, GitHub has been mined for over 6
years now to investigate aspects of the collaborative open source
software (OSS) development paradigm. Aim: In this research, we use this
data to investigate the relation between project growth as a proxy for
success, and social diversity. Method: We first categorize active OSS
projects into a five-star rating using a benchmarking system we based on
various project growth metrics; then we study the relation between this
rating and the reported social diversities for the team members of those
projects. Results: Our findings highlight a statistically significant
relation; however, the effect is small. Conclusions: Our findings
suggest the need for further research on this topic; moreover, the
proposed benchmarking method may be used in future work to determine OSS
project success on collaboration platforms such as GitHub.},

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.},

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 objective of this paper is to demonstrate how calculations of
greenhouse gas emissions from transport in logistics systems can be
analysed with Discrete Event Simulation models. For this, modelling was
performed by considering the discrete aspects associated with transport
systems with the continuous component of the carbon monoxide emissions
from the fleet. The simulation models were constructed with the free and
open-source software Ururau. 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. The results indicated that there is
no direct relationship of proportionality between, for example, the
delivery time and the total emissions produced by trucks.},

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 = {The need for students to have hands-on experience is very important in
many disciplines to match the requirements of today's dynamic job
market. Informatics, which is the science of information engineering,
has been recently integrated into many academic programs. Teaching
students the main skills in modern software and web development is
essential for them to be successful informatics professionals. For any
informatics program, students engage in working on projects as essential
parts for some courses in their academic programs. This paper presents
the development and evaluation of MiLAB (My Mobile Informatics Lab), a
portable virtual lab environment for the teaching and learning of modern
web development skills. MiLAB has been integrated into an undergraduate
health informatics academic program to improve the teaching and learning
of essential web development skills, such as databases management and
customization of modern content management systems. The evaluation of
MiLAB indicated that it served as an interactive personal environment
for students to implement, collaborate, and present their web

Abstract = {Studies on open source software (OS) have shown that the license under
which an OSS is released has an impact on the success or failure of the
software. In this paper, we model the relationship between an OSS
developer's utility, the effort that goes into developing an OSS, his
attitude towards the freedom to choose an OSS license, and the choice of
OSS license. We find that the larger the effort to develop OSS, the more
is the likelihood that the OSS license would be free from restrictions.
Interestingly, the result holds even when all OSS developers prefer
restrictive licenses or less-restrictive license. The results suggest
that least-restrictive or non-copyleft license will dominate other types
of OSS license when a large effort is required to develop derivative
software. On the other hand, most-restrictive or strong-copyleft
licenses will be the dominant license when minimal effort is required to
develop the original OSS and the derivative software. (C) 2011 Elsevier

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.},

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 = {ELECTRONIC LIBRARY},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {31},
Number = {2},
Pages = {217-225},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to describe the design and
development of a digital library at Cochin University of Science and
Technology (CUSAT), India, using DSpace open source software. The study
covers the structure, contents and usage of CUSAT digital library.
Design/methodology/approach - This paper examines the possibilities of
applying open source in libraries. An evaluative approach is carried out
to explore the features of the CUSAT digital library. The Google
Analytics service is employed to measure the amount of use of digital
library by users across the world.
Findings - CUSAT has successfully applied DSpace open source software
for building a digital library. The digital library has had visits from
78 countries, with the major share from India. The distribution of
documents in the digital library is uneven. Past exam question papers
share the major part of the collection. The number of research papers,
articles and rare documents is less.
Originality/value - The study is the first of its type that tries to
understand digital library design and development using DSpace open
source software in a university environment with a focus on the analysis
of distribution of items and measuring the value by usage statistics
employing the Google Analytics service. The digital library model can be
useful for designing similar systems.},

Abstract = {Free and open source software (FOSS) is any computer program released
under a licence that grants users rights to run the program for any
purpose, to study it, to modify it, and to redistribute it in original
or modified form. Our aim is to explore the intersection between FOSS
and computational reproducibility. We begin by situating FOSS in
relation to other `open' initiatives, and specifically open science,
open research, and open scholarship. In this context, we argue that
anyone who actively contributes to the research process today is a
computational researcher, in that they use computers to manage and store
information. We then provide a primer to FOSS suitable for anyone
concerned with research quality and sustainability-including researchers
in any field, as well as support staff, administrators, publishers,
funders, and so on. Next, we illustrate how the notions introduced in
the primer apply to resources for scientific computing, with reference
to the GNU Scientific Library as a case study. We conclude by discussing
why the common interpretation of `open source' as `open code' is
misplaced, and we use this example to articulate the role of FOSS in
research and scholarship today. This article is part of the theme issue
`Reliability and reproducibility in computational science: implementing
verification, validation and uncertainty quantification in silico'.},

Software ecosystem},
Journal = {SCIENTIFIC DATA},

Volume = {9},

Month = {NOV 16},
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 = {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 = {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 = {The long-term success of implants depends on rapid healing and safe
integration with body. In the case of orthopaedic and dental implants it
was found that geometry and surface topography are crucial for short and
long-term success of the implant, due to its effects in
osseointegration. Properties of implant surfaces have been studied in
the last decade in a concentrated effort to improve osseointegration
process and implant success. Several researchers have proved that
roughness of implant surface is related to healing time and integration
between the implants and the bone, but the parameters on the surface
creation are not fully controllable with current processes. In this
work, computational algorithms are proposed for implant surface design
in order to control the parameters required for this application. As a
result it is presented an open-source software tool, called POMES -
Porous and Modifications for Engineering Surfaces - , to design
porous/roughness on top of surfaces in any geometry. Additionally, an
example model was fabricated using POMES and additive manufacturing. (C)

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.},

Abstract = {Software usage by end-users is one of the factors used to evaluate the
success of software projects. In the context of open source software,
there is no single and non-controversial measure of usage, though.
Still, one of the most used and readily available measure is data about
projects downloads. Nevertheless, download counts and averages do not
convey as much information as the patterns in the original downloads
time series. In this research, we propose a method to increase the
expressiveness of mere download rates by considering download patterns
against software releases. We apply experimentally our method to the
most downloaded projects of Source Forge's history crawled through the
FLOSSMole repository. Findings show that projects with similar usage can
have indeed different levels of sensitivity to releases, revealing
different behaviors of users. Future research will develop further the
pattern recognition approach to automatically categorize open source
projects according to their download patterns.},

Volume = {44},

Pages = {227-238},
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 = {User contributions are crucial to the success of open source software

research examined user contributions in OSS communities. The results
indicated that contribution intention is significantly affected by
social identity, which includes cognitive, affective and evaluative
identity. In addition, the researchers found that the subjective norm
has a negative effect on contribution intention. The results imply that
service providers need to enhance user identification with the community
in order to facilitate their contribution in OSS communities.},

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.},

Title = {RhizoVision Explorer: open-source software for root image analysis and
measurement standardization},
Journal = {AOB PLANTS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {13},
Number = {6},
Month = {SEP 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 = {The global burden of disease falls most heavily on people in developing
countries. Few resources for healthcare, geographical and infrastructure
issues, lack of trained staff, language and cultural diversity and
political instability all affect the ability of health providers to
support effective and efficient healthcare. Health information systems
are a key aspect of improving healthcare, but existing systems are often
expensive and unsuitable. Open source software appears to be a promising
avenue for quickly and cheaply introducing health information systems
that are appropriate for developing nations. This article describes some
aspects of open source e-health software that are particularly relevant
to developing nations, issues and problems that may arise and suggests
some future areas for research and action. Suggestions for critical
success factors are included. Much of the discussion will be related to
a case study of a training and e-health project, currently running in

digital artefacts},
Journal = {LIBRARY HI TECH},

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 = {Mining thesoftware repositories expose a lot of factors for software
quality improvement. Researchers have worked extensively from various
aspects of bug reports to predict, prevent and categorize the bugs in
the software. Unfortunately, the survival aspect of software bugs is
hardly reflected upon for bug removal efficiency. The surviving bugs are
far more crucial for software reliability as compared to timely detected
bugs. In this study, we ahead to highlight the existence of surviving
bugs in open source software projects from the community perspective. A
causal assessment model is developedusing the Bayesian network
fordrawing the probabilistic inferenceto answer the proposed research
questions. The study used data set from Apache 2.0.44 official release
to reflect upon the findings.},

platforms (ISPs) that enable their researchers, scientists, and the
general public use information assets, share knowledge and experience,

when you build an ISP this will happen. Part of the problem is because
ISP providers lack the model to help them facilitate the building of
sustainable communities. In this paper, we present a model for creating
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.},

Commercial Open-Source Software Company Success},

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 = {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.},

scale, requiring suitably large data and computing resources.
HPC clusters based on open source software and consumer grade hardware
have enabled a new generation of extremely computationally demanding

In this poster we discuss the Neuronix cluster, an implementation of the
HPC cluster concept that provides an unprecedented price/performance
ratio using commercial off the shelf parts (COTS).
The environment is heterogeneous because of the need to mix GPUs and
CPUs. GPUs are critical today to the success of deep learning
algorithms.
Methods of horizontal scaling and managing node availability based on
requested resources and server load are discussed.
Tools that are central to our management strategy include Ganglia, mdadm

Abstract = {Users' voluntary contribution of codes is crucial to the success of open
source software (OSS) communities. However, users often lack the
contribution motivation. The purpose of this research is to examine
users' contribution in OSS communities from a perceived justice
perspective. We adopted a mixed method of structural equation modeling
(SEM) and artificial neural network (ANN) to conduct data analysis. The
results indicated that perceived justice, which includes distributive
justice, procedural justice and interactional justice, has significant
effects on trust and satisfaction, both of which further determine
contribution intention. The results imply that OSS communities need to
improve users' perceived justice in order to facilitate their
contribution behavior.},

Abstract = {Predicting how much effort will be required to complete a software
project as early as possible is a very important factor in the success
of software development projects. Including function points and its
variants, there are several size measures and corresponding measurement
methods that can be used for effort estimation. However, in most of the
projects, there is limited amount of information available in the early
stages and significant effort is spent for size measurement and effort
estimation with such methods. This paper analyzes the correlation
between the size metrics of conceptual model of the problem domain and
the resulting software. For this purpose, we consider open source
project management and game software. We apply linear regression and
cross validation techniques to investigate the relation between the
sizes of problem domain (i.e., conceptual) and solution domain (i.e.,
design) models. The results reveal a high correlation between the number
of conceptual classes in the problem domain model and the number of
software classes constituting the corresponding software. The results
suggest that it is possible to use problem domain descriptions in the
early stages of software development projects to make plausible
predictions for the size of the software.},

Abstract = {Today's software companies face the challenges of highly distributed
development projects and constantly changing requirements. 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.},

Abstract = {The practice of image processing inherently requires software
development. Creating this technology requires designing, implementing,
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.},

e-Business. It was found that many barriers may exist for e-Business
adoption in an SME. One of which is limited financial resources to
purchase internet technology required for e-Business adoption and
development. However, open source technology has grown in popularity for
a number of years, with governments, business firms, military and
educational organisations incorporating open source software. This paper
provides an overview on open source technology which could be adopted
for e-Business architecture for the development of e-Business
applications. Furthermore, it provides two action research case studies
on SMEs adopting open source software for the development of e-Business
capabilities. It was found the projects were successfully developed and
implemented for each case study company. Although successful, the
research team found that more research is required in open source
software for the development of e-Business applications.},

with open-source software},
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.},

options on the accumulation of code debt in open source software
development (OSSD) projects. Further, we examine the impact of code debt
on three measures of OSSD project performance. Specifically, we
hypothesize that increased use of defer options and abandon options is
negatively related to the accumulation of code debt, while increased use
of growth options is positively related to the accumulation of code
debt. Further, we hypothesize that while the accumulation of code debt
is negatively related to a project's market success and the engagement
of peripheral developers, it is positively related to the engagement of
core developers. To test our hypotheses, we plan to collect and analyze
project data from a leading OSSD platform. We expect our findings to
provide new theoretical perspectives for researchers and actionable
insights for software practitioners.},

Abstract = {The world's population is greying. There are more older adults now than
ever before, and it is expected that this population will grow rapidly
in years to come. In addition to this rapid growth in the population of
older adults, there is also rapid growth of free/open source software
projects (FOSS). Despite the increasing diversity of FOSS's user base,
FOSS's developer base is quite homogeneous, comprised mainly of
20-something year old males. This lack of diversity could be detrimental
to the community, as many voices of end users are not heard. I aim to
increase age diversity in free/open source software communities by
investigating how to involve older adults. My research deliverables are
as follows: a list of benefits and barriers of involving older adults in
FOSS, guidelines for involving older adults in FOSS, and a prototype
workshop curriculum for encouraging successful participation to FOSS by
older adults.},

Title = {ORGANIZATIONAL AND MOTIVATIONAL FACTORS FOR IMPLEMENTING ENTERPRISE
SOLUTIONS BASED ON OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE},
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 = {Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify barriers and drivers to
open source software (OSS) adoption, and measures awareness and adoption
stages of OSS in US academic libraries. Design/methodology/approach An
online survey of chief information officers, chief technology officers
or heads for IT in US academic libraries was conducted. A total number
of 179 responses were used for data analysis. Findings From the survey,
the authors identify significant barriers and drivers that US academic
libraries may consider before adopting OSS and found that awareness
itself is not a barrier. While about half of respondents confirmed using
OSS, the authors found surprisingly low levels of intent to adopt from
current non-adopters. Practical implications - This research offers
insights for promoting OSS adoption. Also, it provides funding agencies
and administrators with guidelines to encourage successful deployment of
OSS in higher education. Originality/value While extant research is
mostly anecdotal, this research draws from an online survey to snap-shot
the current state of OSS adoption in US academic libraries and provides
a baseline for practice and research.},

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.},

Title = {An Open-Source Software Reliability Model Considering Learning Factors
and Stochastically Introduced Faults},

Abstract = {In recent years, software development models have undergone changes. In
order to meet user needs and functional changes, open-source software
continuously improves its software quality through successive releases.
Due to the iterative development process of open-source software,
open-source software testing also requires continuous learning to
understand the changes in the software. Therefore, the fault detection
process of open-source software involves a learning process.
Additionally, the complexity and uncertainty of the open-source software
development process also lead to stochastically introduced faults when
troubleshooting in the open-source software debugging process.
Considering the phenomenon of learning factors and the random
introduction of faults during the testing process of open-source
software, this paper proposes a reliability modeling method for
open-source software that considers learning factors and the random
introduction of faults. Least square estimation and maximal likelihood
estimation are used to determine the model parameters. Four fault data
sets from Apache open-source software projects are used to compare the
model performances. Experimental results indicate that the proposed
model is superior to other models. The proposed model can accurately
predict the number of remaining faults in the open-source software and
be used for actual open-source software reliability evaluation.},

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.},

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 = {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
proprietary development Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley \& Sons, Ltd},

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 = {The population pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters that are implemented in
therapeutic drug management (TDM) software were generally obtained from
a Western population and might not be adequate for PK prediction with a
Korean population. This study aimed to develop a population PK model for
vancomycin using Korean data to improve the quality of TDM for Korean
patients. A total of 220 patients (1020 observations) who received
vancomycin TDM services were included in the dataset. A population PK
analysis was performed using non-linear mixed effects modeling, and a
covariate evaluation was conducted. A two-compartment model with
first-order elimination best explained the vancomycin PK, with estimates
of 2.82 L/h, 31.8 L, 11.7 L/h, and 75.4 L for CL, V-1, Q, and V-2,
respectively. In the covariate analysis, weight correlated with the
volume of the peripheral compartment, and creatinine clearance,
hemodialysis, and continuous renal replacement therapy treatments
contributed to the clearance of vancomycin. The results show the clear
need to optimize the PK parameters used for TDM in Korean patients.
Specifically, V-1 should be smaller for Korean patients, and renal
replacement therapies should be considered in TDM practice. This final
model was successfully applied in R shiny as open-source software for
Koreans.},

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.},

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.},

Abstract = {Knowledge sharing is essential for successful collaboration between
companies and external communities. We lack knowledge regarding the
microprocesses companies deliberately introduce to manage knowledge
sharing with such outside parties. We research these processes in the
context of collaboration between companies and open source software
(OSS) communities by posing the question: How do companies design
explicit mechanisms to manage knowledge exchange with OSS communities?
We conduct an explorative case study at Siemens AG. Siemens introduced a
formal template process which can be adapted by the organizational units
according to their demands. Results show that the extent to which the
process is implemented depends on the level of closeness to core
intellectual property of the organizational unit and the intensity of
the involvement in OSS communities. Developers use several methods to
shortcut the process. Our study contributes to the literature on
organizational knowledge sharing, company-involved OSS development, and
open innovation of firms.},

Abstract = {The open source movement has provided software users with more choices,
lower software acquisition cost, more flexible software customization,
and possibly higher quality software product. Although the development
of open source software is dynamic and it encourages innovations, the
process can be chaotic. An Open Source Software Development (OSSD)
process model to enhance the survivability of OSSD projects is needed.
This research uses the grounded theory approach to derive a
Phase-Role-Skill-Responsibility (PRSR) OSSD process model. The three
OSSD process phases -- Launch Stage, Before the First Release, and
Between Releases -- address the characteristics of the OSSD process as
well as factors that influence the OSSD process. In the PRSR model,
different roles/actors are required to have different skills and
responsibilities corresponding to each of the three OSSD process phases.
This qualitative research contributes to the software development
literature as well as open source practice.},

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.},

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 = {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 = {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 = {This paper outlines the motivations and methods for analyzing the
developer network of open source software (OSS) projects. 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 Thuds {[}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 = {This paper focuses on studying the role of open source software project
initiator in affecting the OSS project success from the perspective of
individual and collective behaviors. The authors collected the data from
an emerging OSS hosting platform Gitee in China. This research indicates
that the success mode for open source software projects in China relies
a lot on the project initiators. Project initiators not only contribute
codes to aid the project directly, but also use their social capital to
facilitate the project success. But no full play has been given to
social network's effect on mass production and collaborative innovation.
The authors suggest collaborative innovation which could lead to
coherence of global collective wisdom, reduced development costs, and
expanded source of innovation should be the further direction for the
OSS project in emerging platforms.},

Abstract = {Social networking tools and visible information about developer
activities on open source software (OSS) development platforms can
leverage developers' social influence to attract more participation from
their peers. However, the differential impacts of such social influence
on developers' initial and sustained participation behaviors were
largely overlooked in previous research. We empirically studied the
impacts of two social influence mechanisms-word-of-mouth (WOM) and
observational learning (OL)-on these two types of participation, using
data collected from a large OSS development platform called Open Hub. We
found that action (OL) speaks louder than words (WOM) with regard to
sustained participation. Moreover, project age positively moderates the
impacts of social influence on both types of participation. For projects
with a higher average workload, the impacts of OL are reduced on initial
participation but are increased on sustained participation. Our study
provides a better understanding of how social influence affects OSS
developers' participation behaviors. It also offers important practical
implications for designing software development platforms that can
leverage social influence to attract more initial and sustained
participation.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) development has become an essential element
of IT strategy: many firms seek OSS as a strategic means of unlocking
the business value in external developer communities and internal
knowledge sources. However, integrating external and internal sources of
social capital is challenging and identifying appropriate integration
strategies is crucial for the success of such endeavors. This study
examines the simultaneous effects of external and internal sources of
social capital, in the form of participant and project differences, and
examines how they interact to influence OSS project success. We propose
a taxonomy of participant differences (language, role, and contribution)
and project differences (development environment and connectedness) and
postulate their main and moderating effects on project success. Using a
four-year panel data set of 329 SourceForge projects, we show that
development environment difference has a curvilinear relationship with
success and that connectedness reduces the positive impact of role and
contribution diversity on project success. We also show that when
development environment difference is moderate, the impact of role
diversity is the most positive. We present the implications of these
findings for theory and practice.},

Abstract = {This paper investigates the skills and the division of labor among
participants in collective inventions. Our analysis draws on a large
sample of projects registered at Sourceforge.net, the world's largest
incubator of open source software activity. We test the hypothesis that
skill variety of participants is associated with project performance. 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.

Abstract = {This work presents a technique to generate finite abstractions of
autonomous Max-Plus-Linear (MPL) systems, a class of discrete-event
systems employed to characterize the dynamics of the timing related to
the synchronization of successive events. Abstractions of MPL systems
are derived as finite-state transition systems. A transition system is
obtained first by partitioning the state space of the MPL system into
finitely many regions and then by associating a unique state of the
transition system to each partitioning region. Relations among the
states of the transition system are then set up based on the underlying
dynamical transitions between the corresponding partitioning regions of
the MPL state space. In order to establish formal equivalences, the
obtained finite abstractions are proven either to simulate or to
bisimulate the original MPL system. The approach enables the study of
general properties of the original MPL system formalized as logical
specifications, by verifying them over the finite abstraction via model
checking. The article presents a new, extended and improved
implementation of a software tool (available online) for the discussed
formal abstraction of MPL systems, and is tested on a numerical
benchmark against a previous version.},

Title = {Open source software toolchain for automated non-targeted screening for
toxins in alternative foods},
Journal = {METHODSX},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {8},
Abstract = {Previous published methods for non-targeted screening of toxins in
alternative foods such as leaf concentrate, agricultural residues or
plastic fed to biological consortia are time consuming and expensive and
thus present accessibility, as well as, time-constraint issues for
scientists from under resourced settings to identify safe alternative
foods. The novel methodology presented here, utilizes a completely free
and open source software toolchain for automatically screening unknown
alternative foods for toxicity using experimental data from
ultra-high-pressure liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. The
process uses three distinct tools (mass spectrometry analysis with
MZmine 2, formula assignment with MFAssignR, and data filtering with
ToxAssign) enabling it to be modular and easily upgradable in the
future. MZmine 2 and MFAssignR have been previously described, while
ToxAssign was developed here to match the formulas output by formula
assignment to potentially toxic compounds in a local table, then look up
toxic data on the Open Food Tox Database for the matched compounds. This
process is designed to fill the gap between food safety analysis
techniques and developing alternative food production techniques to
allow for new methods of food production to be preliminarily tested
before animal testing. The methodology was validated against a previous
method using proprietary commercial software. The new process identifies
all of the toxic elements the previous process identified with more
detailed information than the previous process was able to provide
automatically.
Efficient analysis to find potentially toxic compounds in alternative
foods and resilient foods.
Identification of potentially unsafe products without the use of live
animal testing.
Modular free and open source design to allow for upgrading or fitting of
user needs. (C) 2021 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier B.V.},

Abstract = {Disease surveillance, the foundation of public health practice, is
undergoing a revolution driven by advances in information technology.
The past 15 years have seen vast improvements in the collection,
analysis, visualization, and reporting of public health data.
Resource-limited countries have lagged behind because of challenges in
information technology infrastructure and public health resources. The
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
settings. Individual SAGES tools may be used in concert with existing
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
more efficient use of limited resources and better compliance with World
Health Organization International Health Regulations.},

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.},

Half-Space: An Open-Source Software Tool},
Journal = {REMOTE SENSING},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {15},
Number = {7},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Electromagnetic induction (EMI) techniques are widely used in
geophysical surveying. Their success is mainly due to their easy and
fast data acquisition, but the effectiveness of data inversion is
strongly influenced by the quality of sensed data, resulting from
suiting the device configuration to the physical features of the survey
site. Forward modelling is an essential tool to optimize this aspect and
design a successful surveying campaign. In this paper, a new software
tool for forward EMI modelling is introduced. It extends and complements
an existing open-source package for EMI data inversion, and includes an
interactive graphical user interface. Its use is explained by a
theoretical introduction and demonstrated through a simulated case
study. The nonlinear data inversion issue is briefly discussed and the
inversion module of the package is extended by a new regularized
minimal-norm algorithm.},

Abstract = {A review of current trends in scientific computing reveals a broad shift
to open-source and higher-level programming languages such as Python and
growing career opportunities over the next decade. Open-source modeling
tools accelerate innovation in equation-based and data-driven

data-driven tools (PyTorch, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn) from tech
companies that rely on machine learning services to meet business needs
while keeping the foundational tools open. Open-source equation-based
tools such as Pyomo, CasADi, Gekko, and JuMP are also gaining momentum
according to user community and development pace metrics. Integration of
data-driven and principles-based tools is emerging. New compute
hardware, productivity software, and training resources have the
potential to radically accelerate progress. However, long-term support
mechanisms are still necessary to sustain the momentum and maintenance
of critical foundational packages.},

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 = {Background: Sequence-based identification is one of the most effective
methods for species-level identification of nontuberculous mycobacteria
(NTM). However, it is time-consuming because of the bioinformatics
processes involved, including sequence trimming, consensus sequence
generation, and public database searches. We developed a simple and
fully automated software that enabled species-level identification of
NTM from trace files, SnackNTM
(https://github.com/Young-gonKim/SnackNTM). Methods: JAVA programing
language was used for software development. The SnackNTM diagnostic
algorithm utilized 16S rRNA gene sequences, according to the Clinical \&
Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines, and an rpoB gene region was
adjunctively utilized to narrow down the species. The software
performance was validated using trace files of 234 clinical cases,
comprising 217 consecutive cases and 17 additionally selected cases of
unique species. Results: SnackNTM could analyze multiple cases at once,
and all the bioinformatics processes required for sequence-based NTM
identification were automatically performed with a single mouse click.
SnackNTM successfully identified 95.9\% (208/217) of consecutive
clinical cases, and the results showed 99.0\% (206/208) agreement with
manual classification results. SnackNTM successfully identified all 17
cases of unique species. In a processing time comparison test, the
analysis and reporting of 30 cases, which took 150 minutes manually,
took only 40 minutes with SnackNTM. Conclusions: SnackNTM is expected to
reduce the workload for NTM identification, especially in clinical
laboratories that process large numbers of cases.},

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)

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.

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.},

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
and Inner 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

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
realistic, multiscale models. Here we describe the Brain Modeling
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.},

Title = {Understanding Open Source Software Evolution Using Fuzzy Data Mining
Algorithm for Time Series Data},
Journal = {ADVANCES IN FUZZY SYSTEMS},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {2016},
Abstract = {Source code management systems (such as Concurrent Versions System
(CVS), Subversion, and git) record changes to code repositories of open
source software projects. This study explores a fuzzy data mining
algorithm for time series data to generate the association rules for
evaluating the existing trend and regularity in the evolution of open
source software project. The idea to choose fuzzy data mining algorithm
for time series data is due to the stochastic nature of the open source
software development process. Commit activity of an open source project
indicates the activeness of its development community. An active
development community is a strong contributor to the success of an open
source project. Therefore commit activity analysis along with the trend
and regularity analysis for commit activity of open source software
project acts as an important indicator to the project managers and
analyst regarding the evolutionary prospects of the project in the
future.},

Perfusion Analysis in Clinical Routine},

Year = {2013},

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 = {In this chapter we investigate the potential of open source software to
increase the impact of microfinance (MF) especially for the very poor.
We argue that especially small and medium organizations play a crucial
role, because they are more flexible in operations and familiar with the
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) 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
based on OSS. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.},

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.},

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
success of a community open source project depends on the developers'
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 = {On the fulfillment of coordination requirements in open-source software
projects: An exploratory study},
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 = {Open source software (OSS) projects represent an alternate form of
software production by relying primarily on voluntary contributions.
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.},

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
world.},

identify different OSS career pathways and develop a holistic view of
women's motivations to join or leave OSS, as well as their definitions

Abstract = {The recent introduction of the pull-based development model promoted
agile development practices such as Code Reviews and Continuous
Integration (CI). CI, in particular, is currently a standard development
practice in open source software (OSS) projects. Although it is
well-known that OSS contributors have different involvements (e.g.,
while some developers drive the project, there is a long tail of
peripheral developers), little is known about how the contributor's
degree of participation can influence the build status of an OSS
project. Through TravisTorrent's dataset, we compare the success rates
of builds made by casual and non-casual contributors and what factors on
their contributions may influence the build result. Our results suggest
that there is no representative difference between their build success
(they are similar in 85\% of the analyzed projects), meaning that being
a casual contributor is not a strong indicator for creating failing
builds. Also, factors like the size of their contributions and the
number of project configurations (jobs) have the potential of impacting
the build success.},

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.},

Abstract = {The paradigm of Open Source Software (OSS) has revolutionized the way in
which the software is used, marketed and distributed. Due to its
strategic importance, in recent years, public administrations have
defined plans for the promotion and strengthening of Information and
Communication Technologies (ICT) based on the use of OSS. These
strategies have been recognized benefits and a wide social repercussion,
given that the open and collaborative paradigm of the OSS phenomenon
allows the use and diffusion of ICTs at all social levels. However, it
limits the exploitation of the benefits of adopting OSS in the public,
private industry and in the Ecuadorian society in general, due to
shortcomings in the identification, assessment and risk management, in
addition to good practices and adoption, the motive this project is to
make a systematic literature review of the OSS adoption, based on
Kitchenham and Charters methodological guide; this guide consists in a
technique based on empirical research, which requires following a
protocol to collect the literature on existing research, related to the
free software adoption by organizations, for obtaining relevant
references of success, failure, risk, benefits and barriers factors of
adoption, in order to determinate the current situation of the OSS use
in Ecuador.},

Abstract = {Evidence-based assessment (EBA) in mental health is a critical aspect of
improving patient outcomes and addressing the gaps in mental health
care. EBA involves the use of psychometric instruments to gather data
that can inform clinical decision-making, inform policymakers, and serve
as a basis for research and quality management. Despite its potential,
EBA is often hindered by barriers such as workload and cost, leading to
its underutilization. Regarding low- and middle-income countries (LMIC),
the implementation of EBA is recognized as a key strategy to address and
close the prevalent mental health treatment gap.To simplify the
application of EBA including in LMIC, an international team of
researchers and practitioners from Tanzania, Kosovo, Chile, and
Switzerland developed the Mental Health Information Reporting Assistant
(MHIRA). MHIRA is an open-source electronic health record that
streamlines EBA by digitising psychometric instruments and organising
patient data in a user-friendly manner. It provides immediate and
convenient reports to inform clinical decision-making.The current
article provides a comprehensive overview of the features and technical
details of MHIRA, as well as insights from four implementation
scenarios. The experience gained during the implementations as well as
the user-feedback suggests that MHIRA has the potential to be
successfully implemented in a variety of clinical contexts and simplify
the use of EBA. However, further research is necessary to establish its
potential to sustainably transform healthcare services and impact
patient outcomes.In conclusion, MHIRA represents an important step in
promoting the widespread adoption of EBA in mental health. It offers a
promising solution to the barriers that have limited the use of EBA in
the past and holds the potential to improve patient outcomes and support
the ongoing efforts to address gaps in mental health care.},

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 = {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 = {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.},

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
an industrial-grade solution.},

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.},

magnetic resonance images: UMMPerfusion revisited},
Journal = {BMC MEDICAL IMAGING},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {16},
Month = {JAN 14},
Abstract = {Background: Perfusion imaging has become an important image based tool
to derive the physiological information in various applications, like
tumor diagnostics and therapy, stroke, (cardio-) vascular diseases, or
functional assessment of organs. However, even after 20 years of intense
research in this field, perfusion imaging still remains a research tool
without a broad clinical usage. One problem is the lack of
standardization in technical aspects which have to be considered for
successful quantitative evaluation; the second problem is a lack of
tools that allow a direct integration into the diagnostic workflow in
radiology.
Results: Five compartment models, namely, a one compartment model (1CP),
a two compartment exchange (2CXM), a two compartment uptake model
(2CUM), a two compartment filtration model (2FM) and eventually the
extended Toft's model (ETM) were implemented as plugin for the DICOM
workstation OsiriX. Moreover, the plugin has a clean graphical user
interface and provides means for quality management during the perfusion
data analysis. Based on reference test data, the implementation was
validated against a reference implementation. No differences were found
in the calculated parameters.
Conclusion: We developed open source software to analyse DCE-MRI
perfusion data. The software is designed as plugin for the DICOM
Workstation OsiriX. It features a clean GUI and provides a simple
workflow for data analysis while it could also be seen as a toolbox
providing an implementation of several recent compartment models to be
applied in research tasks. Integration into the infrastructure of a
radiology department is given via OsiriX. Results can be saved
automatically and reports generated automatically during data analysis
ensure certain quality control.},

Volume = {30},

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

Abstract = {As a community-based innovation, the open source software (OSS)
development phenomenon has received great attention from researchers and
practitioners. Understanding the factors that affect the involvement and
contributions of participants in OSS projects is of significance to
facilitate project success. This paper investigates the effects of
motivation on participant performance in OSS projects, drawing upon
self-determination theory to examine how task effort (i.e., effort
intensity and goal commitment) mediates the relationships between a
spectrum of motivations and individual performance. The research model
is supported by survey data from 204 participants in OSS projects. The
theoretical contributions and managerial implications are discussed.},

Analysis of Giant Unilamellar Vesicles},

Abstract = {Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) are cell-sized aqueous compartments
enclosed by a phospholipid bilayer. Due to their cell-mimicking
properties, GUITs have become a widespread experimental tool in
synthetic biology to study membrane properties and cellular processes.
In stark contrast to the experimental progress, quantitative analysis of
GUV microscopy images has received much less attention. Currently, most
analysis is performed either manually or with custom-made scripts, which
makes analysis time-consuming and results difficult to compare across
studies. To make quantitative GUV analysis accessible and fast, we
present DisGUVery, an open-source, versatile software that encapsulates
multiple algorithms for automated detection and analysis of GUVs in
microscopy images. With a performance analysis, we demonstrate that
DisGUVery's three vesicle detection modules successfully identify GUVs
in images obtained with a wide range of imaging sources, in various
typical GUV experiments. Multiple predefined analysis modules allow the
user to extract properties such as membrane fluorescence, veside shape,
and internal fluorescence from large populations. A new membrane
segmentation algorithm facilitates spatial fluorescence analysis of
nonspherical vesicles. Altogether, DisGUVery provides an accessible tool
to enable high-throughput automated analysis of GUVs, and thereby to
promote quantitative data analysis in synthetic cell research.},

Title = {Motivating the contributions: An Open Innovation perspective on what to
share as Open Source Software},
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.

Abstract = {Context and motivation: Contribution Management helps firms engaged in
Open Source Software (OSS) ecosystems to motivate what they should
contribute and when, but also what they should focus their resources on
and to what extent. Such guidelines are also referred to as contribution
strategies. The motivation for developing tailored contribution
strategies is to maximize return on investment and sustain the influence
needed in the ecosystem. Question/Problem: We aim to develop a framework
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.},

Title = {Guiding the way: A systematic literature review on mentoring practices
in open source software projects},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {171},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Context: Mentoring in Open Source Software (OSS) is important to its
project's growth and sustainability. Mentoring allows contributors to
improve their technical skills and learn about the protocols and
cultural norms of the project. However, mentoring has its challenges:
mentors sometimes feel unappreciated, and mentees may have mismatched
interests or lack interpersonal skills. Existing research has
investigated the different challenges of mentoring in different OSS
contexts, but we lack a holistic understanding. Objective: A
comprehensive understanding of the current practices and challenges of
mentoring in OSS is needed to implement appropriate strategies to
facilitate mentoring. Method: This study presents a systematic
literature review investigating how literature has characterized
mentoring practices in OSS, including their challenges and the
strategies to mitigate them. We retrieved 232 studies from four digital
libraries. Out of these, 21 were primary studies. Using this, we
performed backward and author snowballing, adding another 27 studies. We
conducted a completeness check by reviewing the references of the 4 most
relevant primary studies, which resulted in us adding 1 additional
study. We then conducted a full-text review and evaluated the studies
using a set of criteria; as a result, 10 papers were excluded. We then
employed an open-coding approach to analyze, aggregate, and synthesize
the selected studies. Results: We reviewed 39 studies to investigate the
different facets of mentoring in OSS, encompassing motivations, goals,
channels, and contributor dynamics. We then identified 13 challenges
associated with mentoring in OSS, which fall into three categories:
social, process, and technical. We also present a quick-reference
strategy catalog to map these strategies to challenges for mitigation.
Conclusions: Our study serves as a guideline for researchers and
practitioners about mentoring challenges and potential strategies to
mitigate these challenges.},

on the innovation performance of 17 691 open-source software development
projects whose data is stored in the GitHub platform. The results
indicate that a multi-faceted strategy, in which the exploitation
successfully supports the exploration, is most effective for their

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.},

Insights from Open Source Software Licenses},

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 = {The Free Open Source Software is a growing concern for Massive Open
Online Courses. The Spoken-Tutorial is a program for the literate people
who belong to the Information system environment. Spoken Tutorials
Organize workshops focusing on ``MOOC{''}.
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
and mode to organize the workshop.},

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.},

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 = {Commercial software companies face many challenges when competing in
today's fast moving and competitive industry environment. 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. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {The development model of free open source software (FOSS) provides
important managerial lessons for knowledge creation, innovation, and
software and new product development. Yet many unanswered questions
exist regarding why certain FOSS projects succeed while others fail.
Drawing on social capital theory and human agency theory, this study
proposes that FOSS projects stand a better chance of success if they
possess desirable social network capital and adopt effective strategies.
It further argues that valuable social network capital and effective
strategies produce greater returns together than they do alone. The
results of an empirical analysis reveal significant positive
interactions between social capital variables and human agency/strategy
variables, highlighting the importance of complementarity between social
network ties and strategies in shaping the outcome of FOSS projects. (C)

that are sponsored by nonmarket organizations and that employ
nonrestrictive licenses, and (2) licensing and sponsorship address

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 = {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.},

Title = {Cui Bono: Do Open Source Software Incubator Policies and Procedures
Benefit the Projects or the Incubator?},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF THE COMMONS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {16},
Number = {1},
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.},

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 = {Adopting third-party software is becoming an economical and strategic
need for today organizations. A fundamental part of its successful
adoption is the informed selection of products that best fit the
organization needs. One of the main current problems hampering
selection, specially of OSS products is the vast amount of unstructured,
incomplete, evolvable and widespread information about products that
highly increases the risks of taking a wrong decision. In this paper, we
aim to inform and provide evidence to OSS communities that help them to
envisage improvements on their information rendering strategies to
satisfy industrial OSS selectors' needs. Our results are from the
matching between the informational needs of 23 OSS selectors from
diverse software-intensive organizations, and the in-depth study of 9
OSS communities of different sizes and domains. The results evidenced
specific areas of improvement that might help to enhance the industrial
OSS selection practice.},

Title = {Modeling continuous security: A conceptual model for automated DevSecOps
using open-source software over cloud (ADOC)},
Journal = {COMPUTERS \& SECURITY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {97},
Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {Agile software development methodology and DevOps, together, have helped
the business to achieve agility and velocity in delivering
time-to-market applications and services. Open-source software (OSS) and
cloud technologies are taking up business innovation and DevOps at new
heights. However, in the quest of agility and velocity, user data
security and privacy assurance often get lower priority as they are
perceived as a time-consuming activity requiring specialized people,
process, and technology. We see this problem being addressed by
integrating security in DevOps processes. Security for DevOps has been
in-stitutionalized as DevSecOps with practical considerations for a
given business context. In this work, we proposed a conceptual security
model, ADOC, to facilitate adopting DevSecOps for the business processes
capitalizing OSS over the cloud. This work contributes towards the
following to integrate continuous se-curity in application and service
delivery: (i) A continuous security conceptual framework proposal based
on the requirements elicited from the analysis of challenges in adopting
DevSecOps using OSS over the cloud. (ii) An integrationist security
model, ADOC, based on the proposed continuous security conceptual
framework, integrating development, security, and operation activities
through automation of security controls using OSS over the cloud. (iii)
A set of inter-working OSS tools for automation of the proposed security
controls in ADOC workflow and practices. (iv) A set of metrics for
performance measurement of the ADOC model. (v) Mapping of the solutions
for the analyzed challenges using the proposed secu-rity controls,
followed by a use case scenario to adopt the ADOC workflow and
continuous practices. The ADOC transforms security being adhoc
compliance-oriented activities into continuous assurance-oriented
activities by codifying security controls into an automated delivery
workflow. Its practical adoption en-ables businesses to deliver
time-to-market security ready applications and services with accelerated
ve-locity and sustainable agility in a cost-effective way. (c) 2020

Abstract = {This article compares the organization and practices for software reuse
in integration-oriented software product lines (SPLs) and open source
software projects The main observation is that both approaches are
successful regarding large variability and reuse, but differ widely in
their practices, and organization To capture practices in large open
source projects, we describe an open compositional model, which reflects
their more decentralized organization of software development We capture
key practices and organizational forms for this and validate these by
comparing four case studies of this model Two of these studies are based
on published SPL case studies, for the other two we analyze the
practices in two large and successful open source projects based on
their published developer documentation Our analysis highlights key
differences between the practices in the two open source organizations
and the more integrational practices used in the other two cases
Finally, we discuss which practices are successful in which environment
and how the current practices can move towards more open, widely scoped
and distributed software development Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley \&

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.},

Title = {Agile Acceptance Test-Driven Development of Clinical Decision Support
Advisories: Feasibility of Using Open Source Software},
Journal = {JMIR MEDICAL INFORMATICS},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {6},
Number = {2},
Pages = {80-90},
Month = {APR-JUN},
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 = {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.},

Abstract = {E-Iearning success is dependent on effective and efficient delivery of
teaching and learning contents electronically. New technological
innovations have greatly facilitated e-learning and have made it
conducive to those who can afford. Developed countries have
significantly benefited from these innovations whereas developing
economies are still battling with the many challenges that have hindered
e-learning success. The advent of Web 2.0 and Free Open Source Software
(FOSS) would have been seen as the breakthrough for the developing
economies to embrace e-learning. However, many factors still impede the
utilization of these technologies for e-learning. The major objective of
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
and FOSS for e-learning. The framework of this study serves as a
guideline in the use of Web 2.0 and FOSS technologies for e-learning.},

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.},

of open source software (OSS) on users community through the analysis of
the evolution of the OSS network. Based on longitudinal data collected
from the comprehensive R archive network (CRAN), we empirically examine
how the network of R packages evolves over time and exert its influence
on the scientific community. We find that critical network features
derived from CRAN, such as page-rank, closeness, and betweenness
centralities, play a significant role in determining the impact of each
package on the research and publication activities in the scientific
community. Furthermore, the performance of R packages can be explained
as a flow of information from the core to the periphery that exhibits
strong spillover effects.},

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 = {Popularity of open source software (OSS) projects has spiked an interest
in the requirements engineering (RE) practices of such communities that
are starkly different from those in traditional software development
projects. 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.},

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

Abstract = {Chemical engineering process modelling and simulation pose significant
challenges to the computer program developer. Chemical processes are
invariably described by non-linear equations such as chemical reaction
kinetics, flow-pressure relationships and physical properties. Dynamic
simulation of such systems involves the solution of sets of non-linear
differential and algebraic equations. There is also uncertainty
associated with the model equations themselves (model uncertainty),
their parameters (parametric uncertainty) and the inputs into the model
(input uncertainty). Tools that aid chemical engineers in the solution
of these problems have been successfully commercialised and enjoy a
measure of success, although the adoption of dynamic and stochastic
simulation packages is lagging behind the steady-state flowsheeting
tools.
Commercial software solutions can be prohibitively expensive in addition
to confining users to adhere to proprietary standards. The Free Software
and Open Source movements have made inroads into providing
non-proprietary alternatives to many commercial software packages, which
has encouraged the adoption of open standards.
This work presents a framework for the development of stochastic dynamic
simulations of chemical processes using only free and open source
software. The large problem of stochastic dynamic simulation has been
broken down into stages:
1. Input modelling using Markov chain models trained on process data or
seeded by hand in addition to stationary distribution models. This
enables dynamic scenarios to be handled with the minimum of special case
code generation.
2. Process modelling using an object-oriented approach in the Modelica
language. Modelica has an actively developed open source implementation
called OpenModelica and is an open standard modelling language.
3. Monte Carlo simulation using extensions to the OpenModelica compiler
that ease parallel simulations
4. Postprocessing, including visualisation and statistical analysis.
Statistics that are generated can be used for control evaluation
purposes.
The Tennessee-Eastman challenge process is used to illustrate its
capabilities.},

Title = {Scrutinizing the available SRGMs in the backdrop of open-source software
while offering a way-out},
Journal = {SOFT COMPUTING},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 JUL 4},
Abstract = {Software reliability growth models (SRGMs) are more often appropriate
for assessing the quality of the closed-source projects including their
development lifecycles because they are dependent on underlying
assumptions. It is debatable whether they should be used in open-source
software (OSS) initiatives. There are studies examining the SRGMs'
applicability in the OSS setting, but their scope is constrained by the
models and projects they take into account, which could result in
inconsistent findings. In this paper, the available SRGMs in the
backdrop of OSS have been scrutinized and limitations have been
identified. To address these limitations, a modification to the SRGMs
using fuzzy neural networks (FNNs) has been proposed. In this paper,
various SRGMs have been reviewed and sharp distinction among the same
has been made, taking their respective failure intensity and mean value
function under consideration. Through the failure intensity of software,
it becomes a cakewalk to identify and predict the faults even before
they actually arise and necessary and timely action may be initiated.
After duly considering the review and contrast between the factors, a
FNN model has been suggested for determination of software reliability
differing with values of failure intensity and mean value function.
First software failure data from a number of open-source software (OSS)
projects have been gathered as part of the methodology used to modify
traditional SRGMs. The proposed model gives out a high reliability rate
and a low failure intensity. The most important factor is that it caters
for the faults that are current and are being faced by the users on day
to basis currently. It was found that the proposed model has a high
success rate with the value of 82.6950937\% which is considered as a
successful result for software. The suggested FNN model may have a
potential impact on the field of software reliability since FNN can
handle the ambiguity and imprecision in the software failure data that
are typical in open-source projects.},

Abstract = {There are 17 national laboratory systems in the United States operating
under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). These
government labs employ tens of thousands of people engaging in research
software engineering activities across a variety of missions. To support
this work, many open source projects are maintained. Many of these
projects have broad utility to the computing community at large and
domain scientists in a variety of fields. However, the complexity and
decentralized nature of the laboratory system has resulted in a
situation where no one entity even knows about all the open source
software projects in this ecosystem, let alone crude metrics of their
health. In this article, we do the first external inventory of open
source software repositories with a nexus to DOE labs. We posit that a
project's need for sustainability support can be determined by comparing
measures of active use to measures of active maintenance.},

Title = {The vital role of community in open source software development: A
framework for assessment and ranking},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SOFTWARE-EVOLUTION AND PROCESS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {36},
Number = {7},
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 = {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.},

Title = {Open-source Software Sustainability Models: Initial White Paper From the
Informatics Technology for Cancer Research Sustainability and Industry
Partnership Working Group},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF MEDICAL INTERNET RESEARCH},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {23},

Month = {DEC 2},
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.},

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.},

Abstract = {Nowadays, sustainable development and preservation of territories poses
a number of challenges requiring innovative and robust technological
tools to fully accomplish them. According to this, the design of an
integrated tourism management system is here discussed. The tourism
management system is developed for the Insubria Region within the
INSUBRIPARKS project, funded by the Interreg program of the European
Union. The Insubria is a historical-geographical area stretches between
Northern Italy and Southern Switzerland embedding a valuable historical
and natural heritage. Nevertheless, the tourism potential of the region
is not fully exploited due to a fragmented political context within the
geographical area that extends across different local and national
jurisdictions. The final goal of the project to increase tourism
attractiveness of the Insubria Region through the provision of physical
infrastructure, the development and promotion of new tourism
experiences, and the deployment of a standardized Information Technology
infrastructure to support cross-border land management and marketing
operations. Central to this paper is the preliminary design of this
infrastructure that will provide tools for supporting information
generating and consuming among project partners and external
stakeholders. The design phase leverages exclusively Free and Open
Source Software. Alongside the preliminary architecture, both use cases
and user requirements are discussed together with the expected benefits
deriving from the co-creation of best tourism management practices by
means of open and shared software platforms.},

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 = {Converging free and open source software tools for knowledge sharing in
smallholder agricultural communities in Sri Lanka},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURE AND ENVIRONMENT FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT},

Volume = {111},

Pages = {351-359},
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 = {We integrate insights from the literature on social movements and

Employing a ``microhistories{''} methodology, we document how actors in
the free/open-source movement took steps that enabled an alternate
technological niche to form, gain momentum and even-tually infiltrate
the extant regime. Our account delineates the key role that actors play
in shaping the identity of a niche, amplifying its presence, and finally
mainstreaming it. We observe a heterogenous response by incumbents to
the emergent niche and highlight the sustained coexistence of a niche
and regime as a distinct form of techno-logical transition. Finally, we
demonstrate the significant impact that a niche can have, spanning
beyond the targeted regime, and becoming part of the landscape. Our
insights highlight how tracing the processes involved in the emergence
and development of a niche can provide a prospective and generative
understanding of technological transition, thereby contributing to and
complementing the extant SNM and MLP literatures.},

Year = {2023},

Abstract = {In recent years, the usage of open -source computational fluid dynamics
tools is on a rise both in industry and academia. SU2 is one of these
open -source tools. Unlike other open -source alternatives, SU2 is
equipped with boundary condition types, solvers and methods that are
especially developed for the analysis and design of turbomachinery. The
aim of this work is to explore and investigate the capabilities of SU2
in the prediction of performance parameters of radial compressors. Two
different single stage shrouded compressor geometries, one with a
vaneless diffuser and the other with a vaned diffuser have been
investigated with steady state CFD. The compressors were designed by MAN
Energy Solutions Schweiz AG. Computational results with SU2 showed a
satisfactory agreement with both the experimental data and reference CFD
solutions obtained with Fidelity Flow, which is formerly known as Numeca
Fine TURBO. Only at the relatively higher mass flow rates the difference
between references and SU2 were higher compared to other operating
points. After performance parameters were successfully calculated with
SU2, the optimization tools that come with SU2 were also used. A 2D
adjoint optimization study on the vane of the vaned diffuser was carried
out. The study was carried out at a single operating point that is close
to choke conditions. The loss generated by the large separated flow
region at the suction side of the diffuser vane was reduced by 0.55 \%
in the optimized geometry using minimal modifications on the existing
vane geometry to keep the performance of the compressor intact at other
operating points. However, the resulting modification increased the
total pressure loss by 0.86 \% at one of the design operating points.
This performance penalty could be due to the discontinuity in the vane
geometry generated by the optimizer. Overall, the study shows that SU2
has the basic numerical schemes and models that are required for the
analysis of radial turbomachinery flows and geometry optimization.},

Title = {Building a virtual simulation platform for quasistatic breast ultrasound
elastography using open source software: A preliminary investigation},
Journal = {MEDICAL PHYSICS},

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
public domain and can be readily adapted to meet specific needs of
different research groups to drive innovations in QUE. (C) 2015 American

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 = {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.},

Title = {Optimal selection of software reliability growth model for open-source
software using weighted Grey relational analysis method},
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 = {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.},

Title = {CMRSegTools: An open-source software enabling reproducible research in
segmentation of acute myocardial infarct in CMR images},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {17},
Number = {9},
Month = {SEP 13},
Abstract = {In the last decade, a large number of clinical trials have been deployed
using Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) to evaluate cardioprotective
strategies aiming at reducing the irreversible myocardial damage at the
time of reperfusion. In these studies, segmentation and quantification
of myocardial infarct lesion are often performed with a commercial
software or an in-house closed-source code development thus creating a
barrier for reproducible research. This paper introduces CMRSegTools: an
open-source application software designed for the segmentation and
quantification of myocardial infarct lesion enabling full access to
state-of-the-art segmentation methods and parameters, easy integration
of new algorithms and standardised results sharing. This post-processing
tool has been implemented as a plug-in for the OsiriX/Horos DICOM viewer
leveraging its database management functionalities and user interaction
features to provide a bespoke tool for the analysis of cardiac MR images
on large clinical cohorts. CMRSegTools includes, among others,
user-assisted segmentation of the left-ventricle, semi- and automatic
lesion segmentation methods, advanced statistical analysis and
visualisation based on the American Heart Association 17-segment model.
New segmentation methods can be integrated into the plug-in by
developing components based on image processing and visualisation
libraries such as ITK and VTK in C++ programming language. CMRSegTools
allows the creation of training and testing data sets (labeled features
such as lesion, microvascular obstruction and remote ROI) for supervised
Machine Learning methods, and enables the comparative assessment of
lesion segmentation methods via a single and integrated platform. The
plug-in has been successfully used by several CMR imaging studies.},

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).},

Abstract = {We present DeepMIB, a new software package that is capable of training
convolutional neural networks for segmentation of multidimensional
microscopy datasets on any workstation. We demonstrate its successful
application for segmentation of 2D and 3D electron and multicolor light
microscopy datasets with isotropic and anisotropic voxels. We distribute
DeepMIB as both an open-source multi-platform Matlab code and as
compiled standalone application for Windows, MacOS and Linux. It comes
in a single package that is simple to install and use as it does not
require knowledge of programming. DeepMIB is suitable for everyone
interested of bringing a power of deep learning into own image
segmentation workflows.
Author summary
Deep learning approaches are highly sought after solutions for coping
with large amounts of collected datasets and are expected to become an
essential part of imaging workflows. However, in most cases, deep
learning is still considered as a complex task that only image analysis
experts can master. With DeepMIB we address this problem and provide the
community with a user-friendly and open-source tool to train
convolutional neural networks and apply them to segment 2D and 3D
grayscale or multi-color datasets.},

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.},

Abstract = {Level of contributors' activity around an Open Source Software (OSS)
project is one of the key factors in terms of its survival and success.
There are several factors that affect a developer's decision to join an
OSS project, yet little research examined the influence of third-party
assessments on a developer's intention to join a project. Drawing on
signaling theory, this manuscript explores how third-party assessment
can influence a developers' decision to join an OSS project. In order to
test it, vignette survey study was conducted manipulating reputation,
development experience, and a number of current OSS projects of existing
developers in the OSS project. The findings suggest that all three
signals have a positive influence on developer's decision to join the
OSS project. This suggests that projects seeking to expand the number of
contributing developers should consider offering information about its
``star developers{''}.},

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 = {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.},

for prognostic enrichment of time-to-event clinical trials},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {15},
Number = {9},
Month = {SEP 18},
Abstract = {Biomarkers can be used to enrich a clinical trial for patients at higher
risk for an outcome, a strategy termed ``prognostic enrichment.{''}
Methodology is needed to evaluate biomarkers for prognostic enrichment
of trials with time-to-event endpoints such as survival. Key
considerations when considering prognostic enrichment include: clinical
trial sample size; the number of patients one must screen to enroll the
trial; and total patient screening costs and total per-patient trial
costs. The Biomarker Prognostic Enrichment Tool for Survival Outcomes
(BioPETsurv) is a suite of methods for estimating these elements to
evaluate a prognostic enrichment biomarker and/or plan a prognostically
enriched clinical trial with a time-to-event primary endpoint.
BioPETsurv allows investigators to analyze data on a candidate biomarker
and potentially censored survival times. Alternatively, BioPETsurv can
simulate data to match a particular clinical setting. BioPETsurv's data
simulator enables investigators to explore the potential utility of a
prognostic enrichment biomarker for their clinical setting. Results
demonstrate that both modestly prognostic and strongly prognostic
biomarkers can improve trial metrics such as reducing sample size or
trial costs. In addition to the quantitative analysis provided by
BioPETsurv, investigators should consider the generalizability of trial
results and evaluate the ethics of trial eligibility criteria.
BioPETsurv is freely available as a package for theRstatistical
computing platform, and as a webtool at
www.prognosticenrichment.com/surv.},

Abstract = {A key component in successfully managing software products is to
properly, and in a timely manner, identify and secure competitive
advantage by innovation via feature differentiation. Although open
source software (OSS) is not a new idea, several product development
companies that operate in a market-driven context have started to use
open source solutions as core software components in their products.
Adopting open source core components implies a lower degree of control
over software development and increased business risk associated with
integrating differentiating contributions into the core release stream.
Whether and how to adjust the current requirements management practices
after the adoption of OSS components to fully benefit from the concept
of open innovation has not yet been empirically explored. We outline
experiences and challenges related to leveraging open innovation via
engaging in OSS identified during 19 interviews with practitioners
occupying different roles in the requirements management process at a
large company followed by four validation interviews with other
practitioners. We then propose a research agenda for requirements and
decision management in the open innovation context and suggest which

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 = {Introduction: Stereolithography, also known as 3D printing (3DP), is a
versatile and useful technology with many healthcare applications. While
3DP has gained tremendous popularity, it remains a daunting and
perceptibly time-consuming process for the inexperienced user, with most
turning to commercially printed products. Commercial vendors are
expensive. We propose that 3DP is feasible for the inexperienced user
with the appropriate knowledge and tools.Methods: A 3DP protocol was
created for model design and printing using open-source software and a
low-cost desktop printer. It was betatested by 3 inexperienced users.
The fidelity of the protocol was then tested in direct comparison to
industry models made for 3 patients undergoing mandibular distraction
osteogenesis, using standard cephalometric measurements.Results: All
inexperienced testers were able to successfully create a 3D model using
the easy-to-follow protocol without the use of any other resources. The
models were created in a mean time of 170 minutes. All cephalometric
measurements on the open-source printed models were equal to within 0.5
to 1.0 mm of the respective industry models.Conclusions: As the 3DP
process is simplified and desktop printers and materials become more
affordable, we anticipate that its implementation will become more
commonplace. We describe a step-by-step, protocol using open-source
software and affordable materials to create 3D models.},

Abstract = {Design and development of models to predict software maintenance effort
is an impending research area as these models help to predict
maintenance effort of software system at earlier stages of its
development. The predictions of these models help in allocation of
limited resources in an optimal way in the test and maintenance phases
of software development. Although numeral software maintainability
prediction models have been successfully developed in the past using
machine learning (ML) and statistical techniques but there is always
threat to generalizability of result have prevailed, as these models are
validated on the same data set on which they are trained. This study
endeavors to improve generalizability of the software maintainability
prediction by cross-project validation where prediction model developed
on one software project is validated against the other project. To meet
our objective we have taken three open source projects written in java
language.
The performance of the models is evaluated using prevalent the
performance measures. Based on the statistical tests; it is quite
conclusive that cross project validation can be successfully applied to
predict software maintenance effort of open source software.},

Abstract = {Krillscan software was developed to automatically process echosounder
data and achieve an accelerated and transparent analysis of backscatter
data that allows calculation of target biomass. Herein, the fishery for
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba, Henceforth Krill) was used as a case
study to develop the approach. Implementation of a sustainable
management strategy for the krill fishery is complicated by a lack of
regularly updated krill abundance data on spatiotemporal scales of the
fishery. To increase krill biomass data availability, automatic
echosounder data processing and swarm detection software was tested
against traditional manual scrutinization with LSSS software and agreed
with only minor offsets in estimated nautical area scattering
coefficients. In addition to automatic processing and data transfer,
Krillscan also has a graphical user interface to supervise automatic
krill swarm detection. Echogram size can be compressed up to 100 times
and raw data are processed faster than generated, thereby enabling
near-real time analysis and data transfer. Compressed data can be
transmitted online to allow fishing vessels to conduct surveys without
having scientific personnel with special expertise on board.},

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.},

Abstract = {Introduction Human skeletons and bones are essential for medical and
allied sciences students. Nowadays, it is becoming challenging to
procure bone legally, resulting in medical students' inadequacy of bone.
Plaster -of -Paris or resin bone models sold on the market are less
detailed than real bones. Aims and objectives This study aims to create
a three-dimensional (3D)-printed human bone model with free, open-source
software and fused deposition modelling (FDM) 3D printers, compare its
accuracy with the original bones and validate it with a textbook
description. Methods Scapula and hip bone models were produced using
open-source software 3D Slicer from computed tomography (CT) data from
the ``New Mexico Decedent Image Database{''}. After automated
segmentation, bones were edited manually with tools in a 3D Slicer
(https://www.slicer.org/) and Meshmixer software (Autodesk Inc., San
Rafael, California, United States) and 3D bone models were printed using
polylactic (PLA) filament. Results and discussions 3D digital models of
both bones were successfully created with the maximum possible accuracy
with an FDM 3D printer. A 3D digital replica of the scapula obtained
after segmentation retained most anatomical features except for the
glenoid cavity, as the head of the humerus obscured the glenoid cavity.
The 3D digital skeleton of the hip bone retained all anatomical features
except articulating surfaces, such as the acetabulum and auricular
surface ilium, which were obscured by the head of the femur and sacrum.
A few morphological features of both bones differed from the original
dry bone, and a few finer details were unclear in the iliac fossa and
ischium. After manual editing and post -processing, the final physical
model obtained has all the features. Conclusions We conclude that it is
possible to produce anatomically accurate models with the greatest
possible resemblance and accuracy to the original bones using free and
open-source data with an FDM 3D printer.},

Abstract = {Starting an e-commerce website has been one of the most successful
business ideas in recent years. Managing an e-commerce website used to
be challenging, but thanks to advances in technology, it is now feasible
to successfully manage an e-commerce website by choosing the right
e-commerce platform. Almost every company nowadays has a website,
particularly those that cater to digital or internet-based clientele.
Starting a modest online store is straightforward, but as the company
expands, the expectations get more specialized, and they are not met.
Unfortunately, ``ready to go{''} solutions are typically resistive to
acceptance, meaning that all individual changes are not warmly welcomed.
This study analyzed and compared the two types of software used in
building e-commerce websites in the Philippines' popular websites and
detected the current web technologies and conducted an online survey
using qualitative approach with the participation of experts and

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 = {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 = {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 = {Dareplane: a modular open-source software platform for BCI research with
application in closed-loop deep brain stimulation},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF NEURAL ENGINEERING},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {22},
Number = {2},
Month = {APR 1},
Abstract = {Objective. This work introduces Dareplane, a modular and broad
technology-agnostic open source software platform for brain-computer
interface (BCI) research with an application focus on adaptive deep
brain stimulation (aDBS). One difficulty for investigating control
approaches for aDBS resides with the complex setups required for aDBS
experiments, a challenge Dareplane tries to address. Approach. The key
features of the platform are presented and the composition of modules
into a full experimental setup is discussed in the context of a
Python-based orchestration module. The performance of a typical
experimental setup on Dareplane for aDBS is evaluated in three benchtop
experiments, covering (a) an easy-to-replicate setup using an Arduino
microcontroller, (b) a setup with hardware of an implantable pulse
generator, and (c) a setup using an established and CE certified
external neurostimulator. The full technical feasibility of the platform
in the aDBS context is demonstrated in a first closed-loop session with
externalized leads on a patient with Parkinson's disease receiving DBS
treatment and further in a non-invasive BCI speller application using
code-modulated visual evoked potential (c-VEP). Main results. The
platform is implemented and open-source accessible on
https://github.com/bsdlab/Dareplane. Benchtop results show that
performance of the platform is sufficient for current aDBS latencies,
and the platform could successfully be used in the aDBS experiment. The
timing-critical c-VEP speller could be successfully implemented on the
platform achieving expected information transfer rates. Significance.
The Dareplane platform supports aDBS setups, and more generally the
research on neurotechnological systems such as BCIs. It provides a
modular, technology-agnostic, and easy-to-implement software platform to
make experimental setups more resilient and replicable.},

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 = {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 = {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 = {This research activity, conducted in collaboration with the Aero-Naval
Operations Department of the Guardia di Finanza of Bari as part of the
Special Commissioner for urgent measures of reclamation, environmental
improvements and redevelopment of Taranto's measurement, is based on the
use of a high-resolution airborne sensor, mounted on board a helicopter
to identify and map all in operation and abandoned mussel farming in the
first and second inlet of Mar Piccolo. In addition, factors able to
compromise the environmental status of the Mar Piccolo ecosystem were
also evaluated. The methodological workflow developed lets extract
significant individual frames from the captured video tracks, improves
images by applying five image processing algorithms, georeferences the
individual frames based on flight data, and implements the processed
data in a thematic Geographical Information System. All mussel farms, in
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
cartographic representation made it possible to identify the
anthropogenic pressures on the Mar Piccolo of Taranto and the necessary
actions for better management of the area.},

Abstract = {Successful Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects
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.},

Title = {Public Works Heritage 3D Model Digitisation, Optimisation and

Journal = {SUSTAINABILITY},

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.},

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.},

research project producing an open source learning application for
children, with children. Children as a user group has been acknowledged
decades ago and methods for involving them have been devised, but there
is a lack of research examining what happens to children's input in
practice, when integrated with actual development. The paper contrasts
the empirical findings with the existing research on the usability
specialists' roles and with the knowledge management literature on
boundary spanning, which argues that for successful knowledge sharing
and arriving at shared understandings there needs to emerge boundary
spanners and boundary objects and a new joint field of practice within
which the experts involved can collaborate. This paper argues for the
boundary spanner position to be acquired by usability specialists.
Instances of successful boundary spanning are described and conditions
for successful boundary spanning are discussed.},

Abstract = {Thanks to the advances in computer power, memory storage and the
availability of low-cost and high resolution digital cameras, Digital
Image Correlation (DIC) is currently one of the most used optical and
non-contact techniques for measuring material deformations. A free and
open source 2D DIC software, named py2DIC, was developed at the Geodesy
and Geomatics Division of the Sapienza University of Rome. Implemented
in Python, the software is based on the template matching method and
computes the 2D displacements and strains of samples subjected to
mechanical loading. In this work, the potentialities of py2DIC were
evaluated by processing two different sets of experimental data and
comparing the results with other three well known DIC software packages
Ncorr, Vic-2D and DICe. Moreover, an accuracy assessment was performed
comparing the results with the values independently measured by a strain
gauge fixed on one of the samples. The results demonstrate the
possibility of successfully characterizing the deformation mechanism of
the investigated materials, highlighting the pros and cons of each
software package.},

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

The ousted FLOSS firms, however, survive longer than proprietary ones,

approach using single- and dual-frequency observations},
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.},

Title = {Novel Multi-Perspective Usability Evaluation Framework for Selection of
Open Source Software Based on BWM and Group VIKOR Techniques},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY \& DECISION MAKING},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {22},
Number = {01},
Pages = {187-277},
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 = {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 = {In 2013, the University of Arizona's open source software program the
Guide on the Side won an American Library Association Innovation of the
Year Award. Since then countless libraries across the United States have
used the program to create online tutorials in order to teach a variety
of information literacy skills including how to search databases, how to
evaluate websites, how to create better searches, and how to search for
medical information. The Guide on the Side was created by a group of
University of Arizona librarians in order to replicate the hands-on
experience students received when they attended a library session on how
to use a research database. Librarians aimed to give students the guided
instruction they received in face-to-face sessions. Sophisticated
research databases are often difficult for undergraduate students to
use, and they need both background knowledge and repeated practice to
use a database successfully. With the Guide on the Side, students are
presented with authentic tasks and are able to conduct ``live{''}
searches as they are guided through the database. Through these
activities, they learn how to locate the information they need quickly.
Although a valuable and easy to use software program, instructors and
librarians are often at a loss for how to create tutorials that are
appealing to students and that are aligned with best practices for
online instruction. This paper will focus on best practices when using
the Guide on the Side. These best practices have been developed by the
author and are based on current educational research focused on online
instruction and on usability studies conducted using the Guide on the
Side. This paper discusses the development of the Guide on the Side, how
to download it, and how to implement these best practices in order to
create learning experiences for students that are both engaging and
effective.},

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
the existing 3D OGC standard (KML, CityGML). This paper presents the
procedure used to enable the development of this new expert system as
applied to the context of 3D Web GIS. A thorough analysis of the
strength and weakness of these different components has been undertaken
to employ it is strength and override its weakness. The system
architecture is operationally used in developing different applications
for the management of a university campus; a large potential is provided
for operational tasks of facility management department, such as
utilities infrastructure, as well as public community (student, staff)
like routing application, searching for a person with defined criteria.},

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).},

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.},

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 = {A new method for automatic counting of etched fission tracks in minerals
is described and presented in this article. Artificial intelligence
techniques such as deep neural networks and computer vision were trained
to detect fission surface semi-tracks on images. The deep neural
networks can be used in an open-source computer program for
semi-automated fission track dating called ``AI-Track-tive{''}. Our
custom-trained deep neural networks use the YOLOv3 object detection
algorithm, which is currently one of the most powerful and fastest
object recognition algorithms. The developed program successfully finds
most of the fission tracks in the microscope images; however, the user
still needs to supervise the automatic counting. The presented deep
neural networks have high precision for apatite (97 \%) and mica (98
\%). Recall values are lower for apatite (86 \%) than for mica (91 \%).

a content analysis of open source software case studies},

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 = {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.},

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

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.},

Title = {A free method for patient-specific 3D-VR anatomical modeling for
presurgical planning using DICOM images and open-source software},
Journal = {METHODS},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {236},
Pages = {10-16},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Introduction: Surgeons commonly use cross sectional images to plan and
prepare for surgical procedures. However, cognitively translating 2D
images to surgical settings can be difficult and lead to sub-optimal
resections. Lymph node dissection can be challenging due to the
inability to locate small metastatic lesions, and their proximity to
at-risk organ(s). 3D volume rendered (3D-VR) patient specific images can
help to address these challenges. We created patient-specific 3D-VR
images using freely available open-source programs. Methods: This study
included patients part of the clinical trial NCT04857502. Patients
received a PET/CT prior to radioguided surgery. 3D Slicer was used to
segment anatomy of interest (organs and tumor lesion(s)). After
segmentation, the data was exported as an .OBJ file with an accompanying
.MTL file. Manipulation of the .MTL file to restore model properties to
the .OBJ file, were completed and both files were uploaded into Autodesk
Viewer. Surgeons then received an email link to access the finished
3D-VR model on their smartphone or laptop for peri-operative preparation
and/or guidance. Results: The method was used in a series of 14 patients
with prostate cancer undergoing pelvic lymph node dissection with
PSMA-radioguided robotic surgery using pre-operative PSMA PET/CT images
acquired on average 103 +/- 69 days prior to resection. The creation of
the 3D-VR models was successfully conducted in all 14 cases. In all
cases, the lesions identified on the pre-operative PET/CT imaging 3D-VR
models were successfully removed during surgery. Conclusion: We created
patient-specific anatomical 3D-VR models that the surgeons can use for
pre-surgical planning and intraoperative tumor localization, by applying
free, open-source software that could be used in any procedure requiring
careful and strategical planning.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF INDUSTRIAL INFORMATION INTEGRATION},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {14},
Pages = {24-33},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Just-in-time (JIT) requirements are characterized as not following the
traditional requirement engineering approach, instead focusing on
elaboration when the implementation begins. In this experience report,
which is an invited extension of a recently published work {[}1], we
first analyze both functional and non-functional JIT requirements from
three successful open source software (OSS) projects, including Firefox,
Lucene, and Mylyn, to explore the common activities that shaped those
requirements. We identify a novel refinement and resolution process that
all studied requirements followed from their inception to complete
realization and subsequent release. Noticing some interesting phenomena
more specific to non-functional requirements (NFRs), we conduct a second
study examining 50 NFRs from the aforementioned three subject systems.
This study reveals a slightly different process followed in the
refinement and resolution of NFRs. It also provides further evidence
that NFR refinement and resolution activities focus more on
implementation refinement rather than requirement elaboration in the
studied systems. Our research provides new insights into how OSS project
teams create quality features from simple initial descriptions of JIT
requirements, uncovers activities more particular to JIT requirements
engineering (RE) for NFRs, and opens new avenues for further research in
the emerging JIT RE field.},

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\%.},

Abstract = {A software development paradigm for open source software (OSS) project
has been rapidly spread in recent years. On the other hand, an effective
method of quality management has not been established due to the unique
development characteristics such as no testing phase. In this paper, we
assume that the number of fault-detections observed on the bug tracking
system tends to infinity, and discuss a method of statistical process
control (SPC) for OSS projects by applying the logarithmic Poisson
execution time model as a software reliability growth model (SRGM) based
on a nonhomogeneous Poisson process (NHPP). Then, we propose a control
chart method based on the logarithmic Poisson execution time model for
judging the statical stability state, and estimating the additional
development time for attaining the objective software failure intensity,
i.e., the target value of the instantaneous fault-detection rate per
unit time. We also discuss an optimal software release problem for
determining the optimum time when to stop OSS development and to
transfer it to user operation. Further, numerical illustrations for SPC
are shown by applying the actual fault-count data observed on the bug
tracking system.},

problems via the Ensemble Smoother with Multiple Data Assimilation},
Journal = {COMPUTERS \& GEOSCIENCES},
Year = {2022},

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 = {Benchmarking and monitoring of urban design and transport features is
crucial to achieving local and international health and sustainability
goals. However, most urban indicator frameworks use coarse spatial
scales that either only allow between-city comparisons, or require
expensive, technical, local spatial analyses for within-city
comparisons. This study developed a reusable, open-source urban
indicator computational framework using open data to enable consistent
local and global comparative analyses. We show this framework by
calculating spatial indicators-for 25 diverse cities in 19 countries-of
urban design and transport features that support health and
sustainability. We link these indicators to cities' policy contexts, and
identify populations living above and below critical thresholds for
physical activity through walking. Efforts to broaden participation in
crowdsourcing data and to calculate globally consistent indicators are
essential for planning evidence-informed urban interventions, monitoring
policy effects, and learning lessons from peer cities to achieve health,
equity, and sustainability goals.},

Abstract = {Integrated service management is a mandatory prerequisite for
communication service providers (CSPs) to successfully deploy and
operate a competitive portfolio of customer services. Unfortunately,
missing open and standardised integration approaches led to proprietary
solutions which were expensive in terms of capital and operational
expenditures. With the advent of TMF's NGOSS and OSS/J Initiative, CSPs
have now the opportunity to migrate smoothly towards a standardised
integrated service management solution. This paper discusses the
technological aspects of the combined NGOSS-OSS/J approach in more
detail.},

on the general software development lifecycle, with an operational test
added to it as an additional phase.
To ensure the successful development of the KT-OSS, we performed various
tests related to functionality, efficiency and others. Also the tests
were performed for maintenance after the field release. We also show the
criteria for them and deal with the test organizations and the test-bed
for managing and controlling the quality of the KT-OSS in this paper.
Through these testing activities, we were able to successfully develop

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.},

Abstract = {Maintaining and retaining contributors is crucial for Open Source (OSS)
projects. However, there is often a high turnover among contributors (in
some projects as high as 80\%). The survivability of contributors is
influenced by various factors, including their demographics. Research on
contributors' survivability must, therefore, consider diversity factors.
This study longitudinally analyzed the impact of demographic attributes
on survivability in the Flutter community through the lens of gender,
region, and compensation. The preliminary analysis reveals that
affiliated or Western contributors have a higher survival probability
than volunteer or Non-Western contributors. However, no significant
difference was found in the survival probability between men and women.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {164},
Month = {JUN},
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 = {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 = {Open Source Software (OSS) has reached new levels of sophistication and
acceptance by users and commercial software vendors. This research
creates tests and validates a model for predicting successful
development of OSS projects. Widely available archival data was used for
OSS projects from Sourceforge. net. The data is analyzed with multiple
Data Mining techniques. Initially three competing models are created
using Logistic Regression, Decision Trees and Neural Networks. These
models are compared for precision and are refined in several phases.
Text Mining is used to create new variables that improve the predictive
power of the models. The final model is chosen based on best fit to
separate training and validation data sets and the ability to explain
the relationship among variables. Model robustness is determined by
testing it on a new dataset extracted from the SF repository. The
results indicate that end-user involvement, project age, functionality,
usage, project management techniques, project type and team
communication methods have a significant impact on the development of
OSS projects.},

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 = {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 = {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.},

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 = {Background Severe and complex angular limb deformities in dogs require
accurate morphological assessment using diagnostic imaging to achieve
successful orthopedic surgery. Computed tomography (CT) is commonly used
to overcome projection errors in two-dimensional angular measurements of
dog hindlimb alignment. Three-dimensional volume rendering (VR)
techniques permit virtual positioning and variable projection, but the
final CT-image that defines the projection plane for angular
measurements remains two-dimensional.Objective We wanted to develop a
true three-dimensional open-source technique to measure the alignments
of the hind limbs of dogs in CT scanners.Methods We developed an
open-source 3D Slicer plug-in, to perform angular measurements using
vector calculations in three-dimensional space. In 113 CT-scans of
canine pelvic limbs, femoral torsion, femoral varus, femorotibial
rotation, tibial torsion, tibial varus and tibiotalar rotation angles
were calculated and compared to an already validated technique using
VoXim (R).Results Reference points were identified and measurements were
possible in the 113 acquisitions. The greatest difference between the
two techniques was 1.4 degrees at only one tibial torsion angle. Mean
values for all Bland-Altman plots did not show significant differences
and were less than 0.07 degrees for all comparisons.Discussion Based on
these results we considered angular measurements of canine hind limb
alignment in CT scans using the 3D Slicer extension program sufficiently
accurate for clinical orthopedic and surgical purposes in veterinary
medicine.Conclusion With our open-source 3D Slicer extension software,
we provide a free accessible tool for veterinary orthopedic surgeons and
thus we hope to improve angular measurements in CT-scans of canine hind
limb deformities through true three-dimensionality.},

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 = {This paper introduces the FLOSS Free Libre Open Source Software
{[}VEMSA3D], a contraction of ``Visual Electromagnetic Simulator for 3D
Antennas{''}, which are geometrically modeled, either exactly or
approximately, as thin wire polygonal structures; presents its GUI
Graphical User Interface capabilities, in interactive mode and/or in
handling suitable formed antenna data files; demonstrates the
effectiveness of its use in a number of practical antenna applications,
with direct comparison to experimental measurements and other freeware
results; and provides the inexperienced user with a specific list of
instructions to successfully build the given source code by using only
freely available IDE Integrated Development Environment tools including
a cross-platform one. The unrestricted access to source code, beyond the
ability for immediate software improvement, offers to independent users
and volunteer groups an expandable, in any way, visual antenna
simulator, for a genuine research and development work in the field of
antennas, adaptable to their needs.},

Title = {An alternative approach to code, store, and regenerate 3D data in dental
medicine using open-source software: A scripting-based technique},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF DENTISTRY},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {156},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Purpose: To develop a scripting-based technique for managing
three-dimensional (3D) dental data and evaluate the regenerated standard
tessellation language (STL) data in terms of file size, accuracy
(trueness and precision), and processing time. Materials and Methods:
Ten STL dental and maxillofacial models were obtained from various
imaging technologies, including intraoral scanners, computer-aided
design (CAD) software, and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), and
saved as STL files. ChatGPT was used to generate Python scripts in
Blender for mesh simplification and data compression, which were then
saved as .py files. The models were regenerated from these scripts in
Blender, and their accuracy was assessed using GOM Inspect software,
comparing trueness and precision. Statistical analysis, including
Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests, was conducted to evaluate
differences in file sizes between the original, Python-generated, and
regenerated STL files, with statistical analyses performed at a level of
significance alpha=0.05. Results: The scripting-based technique was
successfully utilized in ChatGPT to generate Python script code for
accessing comprehensive data on STL models, utilizing Blender's
scripting functionality. This approach enabled the generation,
regeneration, and visualization of STL models, resulting in
significantly smaller file sizes for both the Python script and
regenerated STL files compared to the original STL files (p < 0.001). No
significant differences in trueness were observed, with deviations
ranging from 0.0 <mu>m to 6.8 mu m, and all regenerated STL models
demonstrated perfect precision. Additionally, a proportional
relationship was noted between the original STL file sizes and
processing times. Conclusions: The scripting-based approach proved to be
effective in coding, storing, and regenerating STL dental data with
reduced file sizes and efficient processing times without compromising
the accuracy. Clinical Significance: Various STL dental models of
patients can be coded, stored, and regenerated to be used again within
efficient processing time without affecting the accuracy.},

Abstract = {This paper presents some of the findings from a 5-year empirical study
of FOSS (free/libre and open source software) commons, completed in
2011. FOSS projects are Internet-based common property regimes where the
project source code is developed over the Internet. The resulting
software is generally distributed with a license that provides users
with the freedoms to access, use, read, modify and redistribute the
software. In this study we used three different and very large datasets
(approximately 107,000; 174,000 and 1400 cases, respectively) with
information on FOSS projects residing in Sourceforge. net, one of the
largest, if not the largest, FOSS repository in the world. We employ
various quantitative methods to uncover factors that lead some FOSS
projects to ongoing collaborative success, while others become
abandoned. After presenting some of our study's results, we articulate
the collaborative ``story{''} of FOSS that emerged. We close the paper
by discussing some key findings that can contribute to a general theory
of Internet-based collective-action and FOSS-like forms of digital
online commons.},

Title = {Development of a REDCap-based workflow for high-volume relational data
analysis on real-time data in a medical department using open source
software},
Journal = {COMPUTER METHODS AND PROGRAMS IN BIOMEDICINE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {226},
Month = {NOV},
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 = {PurposeThis research investigates how the value creation interests and
activities of different stakeholder groups within one open source
software (OSS) project influence the project's development over
time.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conducted a case study of
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.},

development leads to the creation of software with the same, if not
higher quality compared to that created using proprietary software
development models. However there is little research on evaluating the
quality of FOSS code, and the impact of project characteristics such as
age, number of core developers, code-base size, etc. In this exploratory
study, we examined 110 FOSS projects, measuring the quality of the code
and architectural design using code smells. We found that, contrary to
our expectations, the overall quality of the code is not affected by the
size of the code base, but that it was negatively impacted by the growth
of the number of code contributors. Our results also show that projects
with more core developers don't necessarily have better code quality.},

Abstract = {Participatory Action Research (PAR) is an established method to
implement change in organizations. However, it cannot be applied in the
open source (FOSS) communities, without adaptation to their
particularities, especially to the specific control mechanisms developed
in FOSS. FOSS communities are self-managed, and rely on consensus 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
interventions.},

Title = {Decision-making Processes in Community-based Free/Libre Open Source
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 = {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.},

Fabrication-Based 3D Printing Using an Open Source Software
Implementation of Particle Swarm Optimization},
Journal = {3D PRINTING AND ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {10},
Number = {6},
Pages = {1287-1300},
Month = {DEC 1},
Abstract = {As additive manufacturing rapidly expands the number of materials
including waste plastics and composites, there is an urgent need to
reduce the experimental time needed to identify optimized printing
parameters for novel materials. Computational intelligence (CI) in
general and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms in particular
have been shown to accelerate finding optimal printing parameters.
Unfortunately, the implementation of CI has been prohibitively complex
for noncomputer scientists. To overcome these limitations, this article
develops, tests, and validates PSO Experimenter, an easy-to-use
open-source platform based around the PSO algorithm and applies it to
optimizing recycled materials. Specifically, PSO Experimenter is used to
find optimal printing parameters for a relatively unexplored potential
distributed recycling and additive manufacturing (DRAM) material that is
widely available: low-density polyethylene (LDPE). LDPE has been used to
make filament, but in this study for the first time it was used in the
open source fused particle fabrication/fused granular fabrication
system. PSO Experimenter successfully identified functional printing
parameters for this challenging-to-print waste plastic. The results
indicate that PSO Experimenter can provide 97\% reduction in research
time for 3D printing parameter optimization. It is concluded that the
PSO Experimenter is a user-friendly and effective free software for
finding ideal parameters for the burgeoning challenge of DRAM as well as
a wide range of other fields and processes.},

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.},

Abstract = {Many software projects are based on the integration of independently
designed software components that are acquired on the market rather than
developed within the project itself. Sometimes interoperability and
composition mechanisms provided by component based integration
frameworks cannot solve the problem of binary component integration in
an automatic way. In this paper we present a technique to allow
connectors synthesis for deadlock-free component based architectures
{[}IEEE Proceedings of the 16th ASE, 2001] in the context of COM/DCOM
applications. This work also provides guidelines to implement an
automatic tool that derives the implementation of routing deadlock-free
policies within the connector from the dynamic behavior specification of
the COM components. Deadlock is then prevented by inserting the
synthesized connector within the system via COM composition mechanisms
while letting the system COM servers unmodified. We present a successful
application of this technique on the (COM version of the) problem known
as ``The dining philosophers{''}. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Inc. All

Abstract = {It is remarkable to think that even without any interest in finding
suitable methods and concepts that would allow complex software systems
to evolve and remain manageable, the ever growing open source movement
has silently managed to establish highly successful evolution techniques
over the last two decades. These concepts represent best practices that
could be applied equally to a number of today's most crucial problems
concerning the evolution of complex commercial software systems. In this
paper, the authors state and explain some of these principles from the
perspective of experienced open source developers, and give the
rationale as to why the highly dynamic ``free software development
process{''}, as a whole, is entangled with constantly growing code bases
and changing project sizes, and how it deals with these successfully.},

Month = {JUL-DEC},
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.},

Title = {Identifying exogenous drivers and evolutionary stages in FLOSS projects},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {82},
Number = {5},
Pages = {739-750},
Month = {MAY},
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 = {Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and Agile Software Development
(ASD) have both been recognized as important software development
methods; they have many success stories and share some similarities.
However, there is a lack of research regarding the comprehensive
integration of the two. This work presents a single case of a hybrid
student FOSS project where ASD and FOSS were combined and reports if
this combination benefits the contributors. We conducted Action Research
(AR) with one sub-team of a large hybrid student FOSS project, and
performed three AR cycles based on the Kanban method. The Kanban
practices visualize the workflow, make policies explicit and implement
feedback loops were examined during the AR cycles. They are discussed in
detail in this paper, which has two main contributions: first, it
describes a real world situation, where Kanban is applied to a hybrid
student FOSS project, and second, it determines that the combination is
experienced as beneficial by contributors. Study participants report a
positive effect on communication with other teams and stakeholders due
to the use of the Kanban and regard their time acquiring knowledge about
Kanban practices as well spent.},

Booktitle = {HANDBOOK ON SOCIAL CHANGE},
Series = {Social Issues Justice and Status},

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.},

Abstract = {The role of Open Source Software (OSS) in the e-learning business has
become more and more fundamental in the last 10 years, as long as
corporate and government organizations have developed their educational
and training programs based on OSS out-of-the-box tools. This paper
qualitatively documents the decision of the largest UK e-learning
provider, the Open University, to adopt the Mood le e-learning system,
and how it has been successfully deployed in its site after a
multi-million investment. A further quantitative study also provides
evidence of how a commercial stakeholder has been engaged with, and
produced outputs for, the Mood le community. Lessons learned from this
experience by the stakeholders include the crucial factors of
contributing to the OSS community, and adapting to an evolving
technology. It also becomes evident how commercial partners helped this
OSS system to achieve the transition from an ``average{''} OSS system to
a successful multi-site, collaborative and community-based OSS project.},

Abstract = {Attracting and retaining newcomers is vital for the sustainability of an
open-source software project. However, it is difficult for newcomers to
locate suitable development tasks, while existing ``Good First
Issues{''} (GFI) in GitHub are often insufficient and inappropriate. In
this paper, we propose RecGFI, an effective practical approach for the
recommendation of good first issues to newcomers, which can be used to
relieve maintainers' burden and help newcomers onboard. RecGFI models an
issue with features from multiple dimensions (content, background, and
dynamics) and uses an XGBoost classifier to generate its probability of
being a GFI. To evaluate RecGFI, we collect 53,510 resolved issues among
100 GitHub projects and carefully restore their historical states to
build ground truth datasets. Our evaluation shows that RecGFI can
achieve up to 0.853 AUC in the ground truth dataset and outperforms
alternative models. Our interpretable analysis of the trained model
further reveals interesting observations about GFI characteristics.
Finally, we report latest issues (without GFI-signaling labels but
recommended as GFI by our approach) to project maintainers among which
16 are confirmed as real GFIs and five have been resolved by a newcomer.},

Abstract = {The objective was to analyze the impacts of the license choice on the
development dynamics of free software projects, that is, on the
evolution of the application. A key factor for the success of a free
software project is its development dynamics, dependent on the
attraction and retention of users and developers. The license plays an
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 = {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.},

each researcher needs to build his own infra-structure from the scratch,
a time consuming and error-prone task. This paper aims to alleviate this
problem by describing an environment, the OSSNetwork, which allows the
automatic data collection of open source repositories. Data collected by
the OSSNetwork is aimed to support the construction, visualization, and

Abstract = {New possibilities such as Surgery-first and Minimal Presurgical
Orthodontics have become extra alternatives for patients, orthodontists,
and oral and maxillofacial surgeons, with immediate facial improvements,
reduced preparation time, and shorter treatment time. The purpose of
this case report was to demonstrate the retreatment of a female patient,
dissatisfied with the instability of the compensatory orthodontic
treatment, chin deviation, and forward inclination of the maxillary
incisors, which was successfully treated with Minimal Presurgical
Orthodontic approach associated with customized lingual brackets and
virtual planning on the open-source Blender 3D software, where the
post-surgical maxillary lingual brackets were also designed. Orthodontic
preparation was performed in 5 months. After surgery, orthodontic
treatment was finished with the aid of mini-implants and miniplates. The
total treatment time was 18 months. Great facial and occlusal results
were obtained and the patient was satisfied. Overall, all treatment
steps were performed following a digital workflow and open-source
software. It is possible to conclude that Minimal Presurgical
Orthodontic Preparation was an excellent alternative for the retreatment
of this patient with mandibular asymmetry and increased treatment
expectations. Additionally, the surgical planning and design of lingual
braces with open-source software can be considered useful and low-cost
alternatives for orthodontists.},

Abstract = {User eXperience (UX) significantly influences the success of free and

maturity models (UXCMMs). Every organization desires higher levels of UX
maturity; however, it requires upfront preparations and process quality
control. Harmonizing processes and analytical lenses for determining
preparation for UX maturity are still challenging, and studies to create
them are limited. The analysis is ad hoc and based on the actors ` will
and experiences. This study proposes and validates analytical lenses.
Findings show that UX experts agreed that the lenses could be used with
a consensus percentage of 81 \%, the threshold value (d) = 0.112, and
crisp values greater than alpha-cut = 0.5. On validation, 47.57 \% of
stakeholders agreed, and 52.43 \% strongly agreed they were relevant.
Results help evaluate the status quo and change culture and policies
toward ideal preparation. Two areas are suggested for future research.},

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.},

Analysis of Commit Production Process via Git},

Abstract = {The purpose of this study is to investigate the relative efficiency of
open source software projects, and to analyze what is needed for their
sustainable success. The success of open source software is known to be
attributable to a massive number of contributors engaging in the
development process. However, an efficient open source software project
is not guaranteed simply by active participation by many; a coordination
mechanism is needed to seamlessly manage the multi-party collaboration.
On this basis, this study aimed to examine the internal regulatory
processes based on Git and GitHub, which serve as such a mechanism, and
redefine the efficiency of open source software projects to fully
reflect them. For this purpose, a two-stage data envelopment analysis
was used to measure the project efficiency reflecting the internal
processes. Moreover, this study considered the Kruskal-Wallis test and
Tobit regression analysis to examine the effects of the participation by
many on an open source software project based on the newly defined
efficiency. Results show that a simple increase in contributors can be
poisonous in terms of the efficiency of open source software projects.},

Abstract = {With the growing number of available Free and Open Source Software
(F/OSS) applications, choosing between them becomes increasingly
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 = {The migration of legacy monolith systems toward a microservice
architecture is a large-scale, nontrivial technical activity and
investment. This shift would be infeasible without the use of robust
underlying software that can sustain a big part of this work and sort
the complexities involved. A myriad of Open Source Software (OSS)
projects are available in the community for this purpose, however, many
companies may remain reluctant to adopt them as the cornerstone for
their new evolved systems that can work at scale. Ownership, security,
quality concerns, or support confidence are widely common reasons.
Furthermore, these concerns are intensified when the OSS is to take part
in critical sections of the evolved system. Using a complex case study
from Zalando, this article aims to give some light to both researchers
and practitioners into the use of OSS to drive this evolution, and the
impact that the OSS can have on the adopting system.},

software reliability. Lot of critical success factors and root causes
are involved to achieve highly reliable databases. Each phase in
software development life cycle represents the reliability of database
but root causes are most critical factors to effect reliability of
database. When there is start of requirement gathering phase, there is
start of success or failure. Database requirement management is the root
cause control to get failure-free or reliable software. If we are able
to control these root causes, we can manage easily database
requirements. But still next phases of designing and development and
testing and implementation phase has dependent on database requirement
management. Any change in database requirement must be managed timely
with full impact. This paper leads us to deal with current database
requirement management problems, showing us a way to manage and control
the reliability at root level of database.},

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.},

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
configurations of governance. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

Abstract = {Modern Open Source Software (OSS) projects depend on the
globally-distributed and synchronized software development. The online
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.},

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 = {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 = {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 = {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.},

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 = {The Alexander von Humboldt Biological Resources Research Institute is a
non-profit organization. Its mission is to promote, coordinate, and
carry out researches that contribute to the conservation and sustainable
use of biological diversity in Colombia. One of the most important tools
used by the IAvH is the Geographical information managed by the Unit of
Geographical Information Systems (UNISIG). Actually UNISIG is focused in
provide to the researchers geographical information as one of the main
tools for support their analysis, this is made by developing spatial and
geostatistical analysis as well as biogeography and biodiversity
modeling.
This tools and the development of new methodologies applied in the
inventory and conservation of the biodiversity will depend upon (a)
scientific development testing of the methodologies (b) the
institutional capacity built up through development of the techniques,
training and collaborative applications c) use of open source software.
UNISIG has developed an internet application to disseminate the
geographical information produced in the project ``Conservation and
sustainable use of biodiversity in the Colombian Andes{''} financed by
GEF. This open source software based application (php, MySQL and Map
Server), is a web database with geographic information of the Andean
ecosystems in Colombia and also the data of biologic collections derived
from scientific studies undertaken in the region.},

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,
organization or culture. In order to make the most out of this exciting
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
prototype. Paper explains concept and all the technical steps of FOSS
localization of Ubuntu Linux that is a FOSOS with a foreseeable future

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.},

Month = {JUL 8},
Abstract = {The structural stability of the developer collaboration network is
critical to the success of the OSS (Open Source Software) community.
However, research on the structural stability of the evolving developer
collaboration network in OSS communities is relatively insufficient. In
this paper, according to the software version sequence, we construct the
corresponding developer collaboration network of the Angular OSS
community and then analyse this network's structural stability during
network evolution. The results show that the network always presents an
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
implement protection strategies for core developers.},

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 = {Open Source Software (OSS) could be a potential alternative for ICT
growth in less developed and developing countries. This approach could
provide developing countries with many benefits like: saving in cost of
development, higher quality, providing opportunity for knowledge and
technology transfer etc. In spite of this potential benefits, statistics
about success of OSS projects in developing countries is not promising.
This paper investigates the main challenges and difficulties which we
recognized as the major obstacles in OSS development in developing
countries. We conducted 13 semi-structured interviews with three
different groups of experts in open source projects and through in-depth
analysis of interviews recognized eight different categories of
challenges that overcoming them can greatly improve the progress of OSS
in Iran.},

Abstract = {The practical success of the next generation operation support systems
(OSS) relies largely on its flexibility in providing adaptive and
cost-effective services. Service discovery is an essential mechanism to
achieve this goal. Driven primarily by the OSS requirements, this paper
proposes a new service discovery methodology for next generation OSS -
model-based service discovery (MBSD). MBSD takes advantage of the OMG
MDA (model-driven architecture) technology. The system architecture of
MBSD and its operation and implementation are presented. The proposed
methodology is briefly validated through an OSS scenario.},

Abstract = {Open Source Software development often resembles Agile models. In this
paper, we report about our experience in using SCRUM for the development
of an Open Source Software Java tool. With this work, we aim at
answering the following research questions: 1) is it possible to switch
successfully to the SCRUM methodology in an ongoing Open Source Software
development process? 2) is it possible to apply SCRUM when the
developers are geographically distributed? 3) does SCRUM help improve
the quality of the product and the productivity of the process? We
answer to these questions by identifying a set of measures and by
comparing the data we collected before and after the introduction of
SCRUM. The results seem to show that SCRUM can be introduced and used in
an ongoing geographically distributed Open Source Software process and
that it helps control the development process better.},

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.},

Year = {2025},

Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Evaluating the quality of Open Source Software (OSS) on the basis of
quantitative success indicators is critically important for project
maintainers to assess their performance as well as for businesses and
individuals to verify that the software meets their unique requirements.
Owing to the unrestricted access to source code, version control
information, and bug tracking database, a comprehensive study on the
Development Process associated with an OSS project is feasible. In the
present research study, a comparison framework has been developed to
quantitatively assess and compare the quality of the Development Process
of a multitude of OSS projects on the basis of various project
dimensions. Five multi-criteria decision analysis techniques have been
employed to apply the framework on ten OSS projects and the results are
compared with an existing quality assessment model. The findings of the
comparative analysis reveal that along with conforming to the results
produced by the existing assessment model, the proposed framework
provides an opportunity for a detailed analysis of the OSS projects,
benefiting potential adopters in aligning their needs to the projects
and aiding maintainers in strategic resource allocation to weaker areas
of the project.},

Journal = {BUNSEKI KAGAKU},

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 = {In Open Source Software (OSS) development community supported by
spontaneous volunteers, technical capabilities, hunger for fame and the
satisfaction of contribution are said to be motivating factor for
participation. In that community, vendors always play auxiliary roles,
and integrate the result of OSS into their business activities. However,
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

Abstract = {In the last decades, companies have been forced to restructure their
processes to remain competitive in a globalized world. To achieve this
they had to use strategies which allowed them to reach the minimum
adaptation development and in this way they could face changes imposed
by the market. This has led companies to use process reengineering as a
sustainability alternative. In this work we describe some strategies
based on free software which can be applied in process reengineering to
achieve this goal. In this process is taken into account the emergence
of free software which has allowed companies venturing into new ways of
performing this reengineering because, by means of collaborative work,
they reduced time and costs for many of their processes.},

Abstract = {In The Mill on the Floss, the ruthless rules of social Darwinism play
out even before the term ``survival of the fittest{''} was coined, and
the fiction translates the ``survival of the fittest{''} that Darwin
identified in nature to a human community in the early stages of
industrial capitalism. This article aims to demonstrate how George Eliot
evaluates laissez-faire capitalism through her use of the Darwinian
struggle for existence among the Tullivers and the Dodsons, and how
George Eliot's criticism of materialism and Mammonism of the early
industrial capitalism in The Mill on the Floss works as a warning for
her Victorian contemporaries who are devoted to ``economic survival of
the fittest.{''}},

Abstract = {Much research on open source software development concentrates on
developer lists and other software repositories to investigate what
motivates professional software developers to participate in open source
software projects. Little attention has been paid to individuals who
spend valuable time in lists helping participants on some mundane yet
vital project activities. Using three Debian lists as a case study we
investigate the impact of knowledge brokers and their associated
activities in open source projects. 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. The direct beneficiaries of this
research are in the identification of knowledge experts in open source
software projects. (C) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

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.},

Abstract = {The Internet is widely considered as a key factor of speeding up social

communication technologies and enables flows of information and capital,
and communication and cooperation regardless of space and, possibly,
time. This article explores the example of Open Source/Free Software
development, i.e. software development in self-organized projects based
on a considerable share of voluntary work. Here, we find complex
articulations of speeding up and slowing down technological development.
Open Source/Free Software projects complement the logic of speeding up
technological progress and of obsolescence with a reflexive logic of
optionality, variety and sustainability which addresses the
accessibility of technology and knowledge as a precondition for future
creativity beyond markets and organizations.},

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 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.},

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

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.},

Title = {Endoscopic Resection of Gastric Submucosal Masses by a Dental Floss
Traction Method},
Journal = {CANADIAN JOURNAL OF GASTROENTEROLOGY AND HEPATOLOGY},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {2019},
Abstract = {Background and Aims. ESE (endoscopic submucosal excavation) is widely
used for the treatment of digestive diseases. The dental floss traction
(DFT) method has been successfully used to facilitate ESE to resect
mucosal lesions such as early gastric cancer. DFT has not been used in
ESE to remove submucosal masses. This study aimed to examine the
efficacy of DFT-assisted ESE (DFT- ESE) for the removal of submucous
masses. Methods. From March 2017 to May 2017, a total of 12 patients
with gastric submucosal masses at the First Affiliated Hospital of
Nanchang University, Jiangxi, China, were enrolled. The tumor
characteristics, en bloc resection rates, complications, and outcomes on
follow-up were evaluated for all patients. Results. The 12 submucosal
tumors were completely removed by DFT- ESE. Nine were gastrointestinal
stromal tumors. Two were Schwannoma, located in the greater curvature of
the gastric corpus. One was gastric ectopic pancreas. All the resected
tumors were removed completely with intact tumor capsules. There was no
more bleeding or perforation after the endoscopic closure of the
perforation or the wound after the DFT-ESE, and no recurrences were
identified at the time of follow-up. Conclusions. The DFT method
efficiently and safely facilitated the ESE procedure during the
resection of gastric submucosal tumors. This study was registered with
Chinese Clinical Trial Registry under Registration number
ChiCTR-OOC-15005833).},

Abstract = {Volunteers to Open Source Software (OSS) projects contribute not only to
help create the software that they use, but also to gain skills and
enrich their expertise and resumes. 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. Our
vision, BugExchange, is a system that curates tasks from OSS projects to
help 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. BugExchange has the
potential to improve newcomer learning experiences, reduce dropouts, and
foster community building.},

Abstract = {Open source software development has been the subject of interest among
businesses as well as in the academic world. OSS enables many
possibilities for companies but also sets new kinds of challenges.
Because of the characteristics of the OSS phenomenon we propose that
trust in OSS communities plays a key role in facilitating their success.
Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the factors that affect
trust in OSS communities. The data is gathered by a survey aimed to
Linux Kernel developers. Among other results it may be concluded that
the most important factors affecting trust seem to be other developers'
skills, reputation as well as the formal and informal practices.},

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 = {Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) is a phenomenon that has
undoubtedly triggered extensive research endeavors. At the heart of
these initiatives is the ability to mine data from FLOSS repositories
with the hope of revealing empirical evidence to answer existing
questions on the FLOSS development process. In spite of the success
produced with existing mining techniques, emerging questions about FLOSS
data require alternative and more appropriate ways to explore and
analyse such data.
In this paper, we explore a different perspective called process mining.
Process mining has been proved to be successful in terms of tracing and
reconstructing process models from data logs (event logs). The chief
objective of our analysis is threefold. We aim to achieve: (1)
conformance to predefined models; (2) discovery of new model patterns;
and, finally, (3) extension to predefined models.},

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
homogeneous phenomenon grounded by assumptions rather than empirical
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 = {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 = {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
dataset, we understand review feedback which affected contribution
period of the developer.},

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.},

Title = {A FREE SOFTWARE PLATFORM FOR EMBEDDED REAL-TIME ROBOTICS AND INDUSTRIAL
AUTOMATION},
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 = {Proponents of the Free Software paradigm have argued that some of the
most established software engineering principles do not fully apply when
considered in an open, distributed approach found in Free Software
development. The objective of this research is to empirically examine
the Brooks' Law in a Free Software context. The principle is separated
out into its two primary premises: the first is based on a developer's
ability to become productive when joining a new team; the second premise
relates to the quality of coordination as the team grows. Three large
projects are studied for this purpose: KDE, Plone and Evince.
Based on empirical evidence, the paper provides two main contributions:
based on the first premise of Brooks' Law, it claims that coordination
costs increase only in a very specific phase for Free Software projects.
After that, these costs become quasi-constant. Secondly, it shows that a
ramp up period exists in Free Software projects, and this period marks
the divide between projects that are successful at engaging new
contributors from others that only benefit from occasional new
contributors.},

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.},

is an imperative to describe these processes. One successful way of
doing this is through specification methods. In this paper, we describe
the adoption of Abstract States Machines (ASMs) as a specification
methodology for the description of learning processes in FLOSS. The goal
of this endeavor is to represent the many possible steps and/or
activities FLOSS participants go through during interactions that can be
categorized as learning processes. Through ASMs, we express learning
phases as states while activities that take place before moving from one
state to another are expressed as transitions.},

Title = {The Synthetic Collagen-Binding Peptide NIPEP-OSS Delays Mouse Myeloma
Progression},
Journal = {CANCERS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {15},

Month = {APR 26},
Abstract = {Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common hematological
malignancy. It is a clonal B-cell disorder characterized by the
proliferation of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow, the presence
of monoclonal serum immunoglobulin, and osteolytic lesions. An
increasing amount of evidence shows that the interactions of MM cells
and the bone microenvironment play a significant role, suggesting that
these interactions may be good targets for therapy. The
osteopontin-derived collagen-binding motif-bearing peptide NIPEP-OSS
stimulates biomineralization and enhances bone remodeling dynamics. Due
to its unique targeted osteogenic activity with a broad safety margin,
we evaluated the potential of NIPEP-OSS for anti-myeloma activity using
MM bone disease (MMBD) animal models. In a 5TGM1-engrafted NSG model,
the survival rates of the control and treated groups were significantly
different (p = 0.0014), with median survival times of 45 and 57 days,
respectively. The bioluminescence analyses showed that myeloma slowly
developed in the treated mice compared to the control mice in both
models. NIPEP-OSS enhanced bone formation by increasing
biomineralization in the bone. We also tested NIPEP-OSS in a
well-established 5TGM1-engrafted C57BL/KaLwRij model. Similar to the
previous model, the median survival times of the control and treated
groups were significantly different (p = 0.0057), with 46 and 63 days,
respectively. In comparison with the control, an increase in p1NP was
found in the treated mice. We concluded that NIPEP-OSS delays mouse
myeloma progression via bone formation in MMBD mouse models.},

Abstract = {Free/libre and open source software are frequently described as a single
community or movement. 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-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 = {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 = {Travel times between different locations form the basis for most
contemporary measures of spatial accessibility. Travel times allow to
estimate the potential for interaction between people and places, and is
therefore a vital measure for understanding the functioning,
sustainability, and equity of cities. Here, we provide an open travel
time matrix dataset that describes travel times between the centroids of
all cells in a grid (N = 13,132) covering the metropolitan area of
Helsinki, Finland. The travel times recorded in the dataset follow a
door-to-door approach that provides comparable travel times for walking,
cycling, public transport and car journeys, including all legs of each
trip by each mode, such as the walk to a bus stop, or the search for a
parking spot. We used the r5py Python package, that we developed
specifically for this computation. The data are sensitive to diurnal
variations and to variations between people (e.g. slow and fast walking
speed). We validated the data against the Google Directions API and
present use cases from a planning practice. The five key principles that
guided the data set design and production - comparability, simplicity,
reproducibility, transferability, and sensitivity to temporal and
interpersonal variations - ensure that urban and transport planners,
business and researchers alike can use the data in a wide range of
applications.},

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 = {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.},

However, the poor handling of quality and customer support prohibit the
progress of embedded OSS. We focus on the problems in such as software
quality which prohibit the progress of embedded OSS. In this paper, we
propose a method of software reliability assessment based on a flexible
hazard rate model considering the influence of installer application
such as App Store of iOS and Android Market of Android OS. Also, we
derive several reliability assessment measures. In particular, we show
several numerical examples of reliability assessment for our hazard rate
model. Then, we show that the proposed model can assist quality
improvement for embedded OSS systems development. Furthermore, we
formulate a total expected software cost model considering the installer
application of embedded OSS. Then, we discuss about the determination of
optimum software release times minimizing the total expected software
cost.},

Abstract = {Local authorities invest between 15 and 20\% of their yearly budget in
urban transport. The excessive increase in motorization indexes in
developed countries produces irreversible damage to the environment and
impairs citizens' quality of life. Urban public transport can help to
improve people's wellbeing and achieve sustainable development in
cities. Operations support systems (OSS) are integral control systems
that, when applied to transportation networks, can provide the required
means to identify, regulate and manage the available resources in real
time. The main objective of this study was to examine the current
relationship between investment in OSS and improvement in the quality of
service in businesses providing urban transport services in local
settings in Spain. (C) 2011 ACEDE. Published by Elsevier Espana, S.L.

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.},

for Affordable Degradation Mapping of Stone Monuments},

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 = {The combination of bovine bone matrix with collagen shows good results
in bone and volume preservation after tooth extraction. To determine the
ideal time to apply an implant after augmentation with Bio-Oss Collagen
and to observe if there are differences in the age of the patients and
the sex, the aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to
compare the post-extraction changes in angiogenic and osteogenic aspects
during spontaneous bone regeneration with those during socket
preservation using Bio-Oss Collagen.
Sixty-six patients were included in this study. After 8-12 weeks, bone
biopsies were embedded in paraffin and histological and
immune-histological investigated. Using qRT-PCR bone (Alpl, Bglap,
Runx2) and angiogenic markers (VEGF, caveolin-1) were identified.
The histomorphometric analysis of all examined samples showed no
differences between treated and untreated sockets, but a tissue
compression. After classification in bone regeneration stages, more
samples with woven bone were present in treated sockets than in
controls. The Alpl expression correlates with increase in mature bone
tissue. In treated sockets a significant decrease in CD34 and caveolin-1
protein expression was found. Additionally, a significant increase of
Runx2 and VEGF mRNA was detected in patients younger than 50 years.
Thus, all specimens showed ossification in different stages after eight
weeks of healing. The treated group gives an earlier stage of
ossification than controls, but produces densified tissue with greater
volume fraction. It can be assumed that successful implant placement in
Bio-Oss Collagen augmented extraction sockets is possible after eight
weeks of bone healing. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

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.},

Title = {OxMaR: Open Source Free Software for Online Minimization and
Randomization for Clinical Trials},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {9},
Number = {10},
Month = {OCT 29},
Abstract = {Minimization is a valuable method for allocating participants between
the control and experimental arms of clinical studies. The use of
minimization reduces differences that might arise by chance between the
study arms in the distribution of patient characteristics such as
gender, ethnicity and age. However, unlike randomization, minimization
requires real time assessment of each new participant with respect to
the preceding distribution of relevant participant characteristics
within the different arms of the study. For multi-site studies, this
necessitates centralized computational analysis that is shared between
all study locations. Unfortunately, there is no suitable freely
available open source or free software that can be used for this
purpose. OxMaR was developed to enable researchers in any location to
use minimization for patient allocation and to access the minimization
algorithm using any device that can connect to the internet such as a
desktop computer, tablet or mobile phone. The software is complete in
itself and requires no special packages or libraries to be installed. It
is simple to set up and run over the internet using online facilities
which are very low cost or even free to the user. Importantly, it
provides real time information on allocation to the study lead or
administrator and generates real time distributed backups with each
allocation. OxMaR can readily be modified and customised and can also be
used for standard randomization. It has been extensively tested and has
been used successfully in a low budget multi-centre study. Hitherto, the
logistical difficulties involved in minimization have precluded its use
in many small studies and this software should allow more widespread use
of minimization which should lead to studies with better matched control
and experimental arms. OxMaR should be particularly valuable in low
resource settings.},

Volume = {37},
Abstract = {The aim of this study was to evaluate the usability of the free software
available that allow visualization and measurement of orthodontic
digital models. 80 graduate students of orthodontics were asked to
perform pre-defined tasks in a digital model through 3D Viewer (R) and
3D-Tool (R) software. The success in accomplishing the tasks and the
time spent were recorded. To end, each participant answered a
questionnaire to express their satisfaction regarding the software.
There were no statistically significant difference between the software
when compared to the accomplishment rates of tasks and the time spent by
participants on each one. The software were evaluated as ``slightly
satisfactory{''} in several criteria. There is scope for optimization of
orthodontic software by manufacturers since lack of their interface
usability can discourage orthodontists' adherence to new resources that
could provide benefits to their daily routine, even if they are freely
available.},

research efforts and significant improvements in the algorithms. This
has led to a fairly large number of successful industrial applications.
However, many small and medium enterprises have not embraced MPC, even
though their processes may potentially benefit from this control
technology. We tackle one aspect of this issue with the development of a
nonlinear model predictive control package NEWCON that will be released
as free software. The work details the conceptual design, the control
problem formulation and the implementation aspects of the code. A
possible application is illustrated with an example of the level and
reactor temperature control of a simulated CSTR. Finally, the article
outlines future development directions of the NEWCON package.},

Abstract = {Maintaining a productive and collaborative team of developers is
essential to Open Source Software (OSS) success, and hinges upon the
trust inherent among the team. Whether a project participant is
initiated as a developer is a function of both his technical
contributions and also his social interactions with other project
participants. One's online social footprint is arguably easier to
ascertain and gather than one's technical contributions e. g., gathering
patch submission information requires mining multiple sources with
different formats, and then merging the aliases from these sources. In
contrast to prior work, where patch submission was found to be an
essential ingredient to achieving developer status, here we investigate
the extent to which the likelihood of achieving that status can be
modeled solely as a social network phenomenon. For 6 different OSS
projects we compile and integrate a set of social measures of the
communications network among OSS project participants and a set of
technical measures, i.e. OSS developers patch submission activities. We
use these sets to predict whether a project participant will become a
developer. We find that the social network metrics, in particular the
amount of two-way communication a person participates in, are more
significant predictors of one's likelihood to becoming a developer.
Further, we find that this is true to the extent that other predictors,
e. g. patch submission info, need not be included in the models. In
addition, we show that future developers are easy to identify with great
fidelity when using the first three months of data of their social
activities. Moreover, only the first month of their social links are a
very useful predictor, coming within 10\% of the three month data's
predictions. Finally, we find that it is easier to become a developer
earlier in the projects lifecycle than it is later as the project
matures. These results should provide insight on the social nature of
gaining trust and advancing in status in distributed projects.},

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 = {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 = {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 = {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.},

Abstract = {Participants in FLOSS (Free/Libre Open Source Software) projects are
atypical in their collaborative practices given the high demand for
virtual work. 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.},

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.},

Abstract = {Embedded Open Source Software (OSS) systems have been gaining a lot of
attention in the embedded system area. The successful experience of
embedded OSSs include Android, BusyBox, TRON, etc. Also, OSS market will
be expanded not only to mobile phone OSS areas but also to other
embedded OSS areas in the future. However, the poor handling of quality
problem and customer support prohibit the progress of embedded OSS.
Also, it is difficult for developers to assess the reliability and
portability of embedded OSS on a single-board computer. A method of
software reliability assessment based on flexible hazard rate modeling
for the embedded OSS is proposed in this paper. Also, several numerical
examples are shown by using actual data. Moreover, this paper compares
the proposed model with the conventional hazard rate models by using the

Abstract = {Fiber-optic sensors based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is desirable for
structural health monitoring and is used for various aerospace
applications such as measuring strain and temperature, where a single
optical fiber can multiplex hundreds of FBG sensors. The National
Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Armstrong Flight Research
Center (AFRC) (Edwards, California) has been developing an optical
fiber-based sensing suite called Fiber Optics Sensing System (FOSS) over
the past two decades. Successful strain monitoring flight demonstrations
such as the NASA Ikhana (General Atomics, San Diego, California)
remotely piloted aircraft and the X-56A Multi-Utility Technology Testbed
(Lockheed Martin Corporation, Bethesda, Maryland) remotely piloted
subscale aircraft have been performed. Interest in adapting fiber-optic
sensors for aerospace applications has led to commissioning the
development of a ruggedized FOSS system for spaceflight through the NASA
Launch Services Program (LSP) at the NASA Kennedy Space Center (KSC)
(Merritt Island, Florida).
In this paper, a ruggedized FOSS suitable for a launch environment is
discussed in detail. Thermal analysis and enclosure design will be
discussed as well as environmental testing such as shock, random
vibration, thermal vacuum, and electromagnetic
interference/electromagnetic compatibility (EMI/EMC). With all relevant
environmental testing completed, a ruggedized FOSS unit has successfully
passed all testing and is now deemed space-launch ready.},

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.},

Title = {Understanding the OSS Communities of Deep Learning Frameworks: A
Comparative Case Study of PYTORCH and TENSORFLOW},
Journal = {ACM TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING AND METHODOLOGY},
Year = {2025},
Volume = {34},
Number = {3},
Month = {MAR},
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 = {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.},

MU-MIMO Systems With One-Bit Adcs},
Journal = {IEEE ACCESS},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {7},
Pages = {27172-27182},
Abstract = {We study an uplink multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO)
system with one-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) in which one
base station (BS) with N-r receive antennas serve K users with a single
antenna. For this system, the soft-output (SO) detector was recently
proposed where a soft-metric (e.g., a log-likelihood ratio (LLR)) is
computed from a hard-decision channel output by introducing a novel
distance measure in the binary Hamming space. This makes it possible to
be naturally incorporated into the state-of-the-art channel codes (e.g.,
low-density parity-check code or polar code). In this paper, we further
improve the performance of the SO detector by exploiting a priori
information (e.g., the previously decoded messages), which is called the
one-bit successive-cancellation soft-output (OSS) detector. The key idea
of the proposed OSS detector is that each user k's message is decoded
sequentially via the associated channel decoder k in ascending order and
a refined search-space is constructed using the previously decoded
messages (i.e., the enhanced LLRs are generated). We then present a
multiple OSS detector by taking into account a more practical scenario
where the BS is equipped with multiple channel decoders. In addition, we
propose an efficient way to determine a good decoding order by
introducing a novel set-distance measure. Finally, simulation results
demonstrate that the proposed OSS detector can significantly improve the
existing SO detector for the coded MU-MIMO systems with one-bit ADCs.},

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
engineering, whose implementation is perceived as complex. Nowadays,
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
solutions, in order to determine ways to improve efficiency in a
collaborative distributed design situation. Finally, the feedback
generated in this experiment allowed us to adapt training practices in
engineering education.},

Case Study of Three Hybrid Projects},
Journal = {ACM TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING AND METHODOLOGY},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {25},
Number = {2},
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.},

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 = {Now, the telecom service providers are faced with significant challenges
as the traditional separated network and service become converged,
Customers move to care more about the quality of service, such as the
provision time, fault disposal, bill management, and security issues,
other than networks. The carriers must integrate their core legacy
mainframe operation support systems (OSS) with new generation components
that can handle the requirements posed by new service offerings, which
means the NG-OSS should pay attention to customers rather than networks.
This paper examines the legacy OSS frame with its main component and
analysis which part should be weakened or converged, and which part
should be enhanced or updated. Then it suggests a more idealized view of
a functional OSS architecture that conforms to the concepts of the
TeleManagement Forum's Telecom Operations Map (TOM) model. In the last,
it discusses bow to evolve the OSS from the network-focused to
customers-focused successfully and smoothly.},

Temperature, Relative Humidity, and Fiber Content},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF COMPOSITES SCIENCE},

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 = {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 = {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.},

Applications as a Reinforcing Fiber},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF NATURAL FIBERS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {20},

Month = {APR 24},
Abstract = {The use of natural fibers is a sustainable alternative for developing
reinforced-polymer composites. It is believed that the seed flosses of
common milkweed, Asclepias Syriraca, may be a promising reinforcing
fiber given its uncommon hollow microstructure that is associated with
both high specific properties and outstanding insulating capacities.
This study presents an overview of the properties of milkweed floss and
its potential use in reinforced-polymer composites. Milkweed flosses
from Quebec were analyzed to determine their overall dimensions,
density, porosity, coefficient of acoustic absorption, thermal
conductivity, thermal resistance, and elastic modulus. In parallel, a
portion of milkweed fibers was treated with acetone to modify their
surface, and the properties of the treated fibers were measured and
compared against the characteristics of the original fibers. Infrared
spectroscopy was employed to assess differences between the chemical
groups on the surface of treated and native fibers. The treatment with
acetone removed fatty acids, waxes, and free sugars from the fibers'
surface. The acetone treatment did not affect the fibers' microstructure
nor their acoustic absorption capacity. The acetone-treated fibers
showed greater thermal resistance and a higher thermal conductivity than
native milkweed floss. The elastic modulus of milkweed decreased by
nearly 49\% after the acetone treatment.},

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.

Abstract = {21st century information society requires more and more use of ICT
(information and communication technology) in everyday life. Nowadays
there is much talk about the digital divide, which means economical and
social disparities in digital technology use and availability in society
of a particular country and among different countries. In this paper we
sought to explore teachers knowledge and use of ICT resources in the
context of free/libre and open-source software (FLOSS). When relying
permanently on free tools there are several benefits which in turn will
grow sustainable information society and will fortify economy in larger
scale. For the mentioned purpose we use Technology Acceptance Model
(TAM) first version. We found that TAM model is not ideal to accomplish
mentioned tasks, especially in educational institutions. If teachers
will be aware of FLOSS then they can increase ICT resources use in
schools in a meaningful way. This in turn will reduce also disparity in
schools and we may call it as a digital turn.},

Title = {Will you come back to contribute? Investigating the inactivity of OSS
core developers in GitHub},
Journal = {EMPIRICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {27},

Month = {MAY},
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 = {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.},

Title = {Developer initiation and social interactions in OSS: A case study of the
Apache Software Foundation},

Abstract = {Maintaining a productive and collaborative team of developers is
essential to Open Source Software (OSS) success, and hinges upon the
trust inherent among the team. Whether a project participant is
initiated as a committer is a function of both his technical
contributions and also his social interactions with other project
participants. One's online social footprint is arguably easier to
ascertain and gather than one's technical contributions e.g., gathering
patch submission information requires mining multiple sources with
different formats, and then merging the aliases from these sources. In
contrast to prior work, where patch submission was found to be an
essential ingredient to achieving committer status, here we investigate
the extent to which the likelihood of achieving that status can be
modeled solely as a social network phenomenon. For 6 different Apache
Software Foundation OSS projects we compile and integrate a set of
social measures of the communications network among OSS project
participants and a set of technical measures, i.e., OSS developers'
patch submission activities. We use these sets to predict whether a
project participant will become a committer, and to characterize their
socialization patterns around the time of becoming committer. We find
that the social network metrics, in particular the amount of two-way
communication a person participates in, are more significant predictors
of one's likelihood to becoming a committer. Further, we find that this
is true to the extent that other predictors, e.g., patch submission
info, need not be included in the models. In addition, we show that
future committers are easy to identify with great fidelity when using
the first three months of data of their social activities. Moreover,
only the first month of their social links are a very useful predictor,
coming within 10 \% of the three month data's predictions.
Interestingly, we find that on average, for each project, one's level of
socialization ramps up before the time of becoming a committer. After
obtaining committer status, their social behavior is more
individualized, falling into few distinct modes of behavior. In a
significant number of projects, immediately after the initiation there
is a notable social cooling-off period. Finally, we find that it is
easier to become a committer earlier in the projects life cycle than it
is later as the project matures. These results should provide insight on
the social nature of gaining trust and advancing in status in
distributed projects.},

Abstract = {Given PHP's continuous success, it remains an important task to ensure
security in its applications. While code reviews are a common measure to
catch bugs during development, they lack scalability, are error-prone,
and time-consuming {[}2,38,41]. Thus, static analysis tools like Semgrep
emerged to provide programmatic feedback on code. But static analyses
often show low precision, which can jeopardize utility.
In this case study, we investigate precision rates for Semgrep OSS for
common web weaknesses from the OWASP Top 10 {[}35]. We explore method
and tool limitations in weakness detection, OWASP classes, and Semgrep's
public PHP rule set. We apply the latter to 300 open source
applications, invest 34 h in manual sample validation, and derive
precision rates for each OWASP class.
Our validation shows that the rules correctly detected weaknesses for
seven OWASP classes with 86\% precision, demonstrating the tool's
utility. Yet, we estimate that most findings are not exploitable (81\%).
Thus, there is still considerable assessment overhead for users. Our
work further highlights that only a subset of weaknesses are detectable,
as dimensions such as runtime context and insecure design remain hidden.
Finally, we advise practitioners to not exclusively rely on public
rules, as translating application-specific business logic and design
choices may open up to the detection of previously uncovered weaknesses.},

Abstract = {Research in virtual teams and distributed work argues that the lack of
collocation places an overhead on the performance potential of large,
globally distributed teams. In this paper, we revisit this tenet through
a case study of Free/Libre Open Source Software ( FLOSS) development to
demonstrate how globally dispersed FLOSS communities manage to overcome
the problem of geographic separation of their members. Our results show
that successful FLOSS teams demonstrate a truly global distribution of
members, who perform different types of work so as to achieve consistent
round-the-clock development, without any apparent ill effects on team
productivity and the quality of the resulting outcomes. Cooperation
between team members is abundant, especially at more complex work items,
and does not seem to be affected by distance; only mentoring
relationships appear in some cases to be easier to cultivate between
individuals living closer together. These findings challenge the
conventional wisdom of research in distributed work, in cases where
virtual teams consist of highly skilled and motivated individuals, who
leverage the power of communication technologies to overcome problems
associated with physical distance.},

a comprehensive automated modeling},
Journal = {PLOS COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {16},
Number = {7},
Month = {JUL},
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 = {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 = {The aim of this study is to define the prognostic factors for implant
survival of immediately loaded tilted implants in the edentulous
maxillae placed into Bio-Oss grafted sinuses. A total of 44 tilted
Bredent implants in 24 grafted sinuses were inserted 9 to 10 months
after the augmentation procedures. Loading was applied within 12 hours
of implant surgery. Patients were scheduled for follow-up at 12 months.
Marginal bone loss, implant plaque level, pocket probing depth and
bleeding scores, CBCT measurements of mineral density (coDiagnostiX
(TM)) were assessed and recorded. Four implants failed (survival rate of
90,91\%). The average marginal loss is 0,43 mm (SD 0,42). The mean bone
density of the grafts is 964 (SD 120,36) HU, ranging between min 477 and
max 1068 HU. All implant failures occurred in lower mineral density
grafts. Statistical analyses strongly support correlation between bone
density at the grafted sites and implant survival.},

Abstract = {The Open Source Software (OSS) literature gives little attention to the
study and practice of domain specific end-user OSS implementation in
general and in the public sector of developing countries (DCs) in
particular. This paper, however, investigates the trajectories of two
OSS-based information systems (IS) implementation projects in a
developing country (DC) context with the aim to uncover the
practice-based learning and resource sharing evident among locally
situated and globally dispersed developers and users. The result of the
interpretative case study research shows that the OSS philosophy and
practice of software development, implementation and ownership,
facilitates for the emergence of practice-based learning from the
sharing of implementation accounts and artifacts without sharing the
same context of work. Thus, the paper argues in favor of an
implementation approach that focuses on distributed practice-based
experience, knowledge and resource sharing, and learning with the
mediation of the information infrastructure in order to facilitate and
sustain OSS-based IS implementation in DCs. The paper contributes both
to the OSS and IS implementation literatures by showing the mechanisms
of developing the technological capacity of indigenous groups and using
the trans-situated learning model as a means to understanding the
learning dynamics in OSS implementation.},

Abstract = {Successful Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects must attract
and retain high-quality talent. Researchers have invested considerable
effort in the study of core and peripheral FLOSS developers. To this
point, one critical subset of developers that have not been studied are
One-Time code Contributors (OTC) - those that have had exactly one patch
accepted. To understand why OTCs have not contributed another patch and
provide guidance to FLOSS projects on retaining OTCs, this study seeks
to understand the impressions, motivations, and barriers experienced by
OTCs. We conducted an online survey of OTCs from 23 popular FLOSS
projects. Based on the 184 responses received, we observed that OTCs
generally have positive impressions of their FLOSS project and are
driven by a variety of motivations. Most OTCs primarily made
contributions to fix bugs that impeded their work and did not plan on
becoming long term contributors. Furthermore, OTCs encounter a number of
barriers that prevent them from continuing to contribute to the project.
Based on our findings, there are some concrete actions FLOSS projects
can take to increase the chances of converting OTCs into long-term
contributors.},

Abstract = {The recent trend towards open data and open science as well as a demand
for holistic and interdisciplinary research requires platforms that
allow the distribution and exchange of research data, including
geographic information. While the requirements and benefits of data
exchange are widely discussed, there are few proposals on how to
implement data platforms that not only permit the exchange of research
data among researchers, but also permit to distribute research results
and data to the interest public. We elaborate what points are important
for implementing a (geographic) data repository and propose then to
adopt the concept of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI) as a solution
for the implementation of research data repositories. We present as a
case study the geographic data and document repository of the Chilean
research Centre on Sustainable Urban Development (CEDEUS), the CEDEUS
Observatory. Besides the infrastructure to host and distribute data,
communication tools are an important component of such a data repository
service. For this case study we analyse which things have worked well
and which things have not worked well based on the experiences collected
during three years of operation. We close with some recommendations for
the implementation of data repositories for research.},

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.},

Title = {Ensemble Kalman filter assimilation of Doppler radar data with a
compressible nonhydrostatic model: OSS experiments},
Journal = {MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW},
Year = {2005},

Abstract = {A Doppler radar data assimilation system is developed based on an
ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) method and tested with simulated radar
data from a supercell storm. As a first implementation, it is assumed
that the forward models are perfect and that the radar data are sampled
at the analysis grid points. A general purpose nonhydrostatic
compressible model is used with the inclusion of complex multiclass ice
microphysics. New aspects of this study compared to previous work
include the demonstration of the ability of the EnKF method to retrieve
multiple microphysical species associated with a multiclass ice
microphysics scheme, and to accurately retrieve the wind and
thermodynamic variables. Also new are the inclusion of reflectivity
observations and the determination of the relative role of the radial
velocity and reflectivity data as well as their spatial coverage in
recovering the full-flow and cloud fields. In general, the system is
able to reestablish the model storm extremely well after a number of
assimilation cycles, and best results are obtained when both radial
velocity and reflectivity data, including reflectivity information
outside of the precipitation regions, are used. Significant positive
impact of the reflectivity assimilation is found even though the
observation operator involved is nonlinear. The results also show that a
compressible model that contains acoustic modes, hence the associated
error growth, performs at least as well as an anelastic model used in
previous EnKF studies at the cloud scale.
Flow-dependent and dynamically consistent background error covariances
estimated from the forecast ensemble play a critical role in successful
assimilation and retrieval. When the assimilation cycles start from
random initial perturbations, better results are obtained when the
updating of the fields that are not directly related to radar
reflectivity is withheld during the first few cycles. In fact, during
the first few cycles, the updating of the variables indirectly related
to reflectivity hurts the analysis. This is so because the estimated
background covariances are unreliable at this stage of the data
assimilation process, which is related to the way the forecast ensemble
is initialized. Forecasts of supercell storms starting from the
best-assimilated initial conditions are shown to remain very good for at
least 2 It.},

Title = {An empirical examination of newcomer contribution costs in established
OSS communities: a knowledge-based perspective},

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
findings.},

Title = {Incorporation of small extracellular vesicles in PEG/HA-Bio-Oss hydrogel
composite scaffold for bone regeneration},
Journal = {BIOMEDICAL MATERIALS},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {19},

Month = {NOV 1},
Abstract = {Stem cell derived small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) have emerged as
promising nanomaterials for the repair of bone defects. However, low
retention of sEVs affects their therapeutic effects. Clinically used
natural substitute inorganic bovine bone mineral (Bio-Oss) bone powder
lacks high compactibility and efficient osteo-inductivity that limit its
clinical application in repairing large bone defects. In this study, a
poly ethylene glycol/hyaluronic acid (PEG/HA) hydrogel was used to
stabilize Bio-Oss and incorporate rat bone marrow stem cell-derived sEVs
(rBMSCs-sEVs) to engineer a PEG/HA-Bio-Oss (PEG/HA-Bio) composite
scaffold. Encapsulation and sustained release of sEVs in hydrogel
scaffold can enhance the retention of sEVs in targeted area, achieving
long-lasting repair effect. Meanwhile, synergistic administration of
sEVs and Bio-Oss in cranial defect can improve therapeutic effects. The
PEG/HA-Bio composite scaffold showed good mechanical properties and
biocompatibility, supporting the growth of rBMSCs. Furthermore, sEVs
enhanced in vitro cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of
rBMSCs. Implantation of sEVs/PEG/HA-Bio in rat cranial defect model
promoted in vivo bone regeneration, suggesting the great potential of
sEVs/PEG/HA-Bio composite scaffold for bone repair and regeneration.
Overall, this work provides a strategy of combining hydrogel composite
scaffold systems and stem cell-derived sEVs for the application of
tissue engineering repair.},

Title = {Choosing Component Origins for Software Intensive Systems: In-House,
COTS, OSS or Outsourcing?-A Case Survey},

Volume = {44},

Abstract = {The choice of which software component to use influences the success of
a software system. Only a few empirical studies investigate how the
choice of components is conducted in industrial practice. This is
important to understand to tailor research solutions to the needs of the
industry. Existing studies focus on the choice for off-the-shelf (OTS)
components. It is, however, also important to understand the
implications of the choice of alternative component sourcing options
(CSOs), such as outsourcing versus the use of OTS. Previous research has
shown that the choice has major implications on the development process
as well as on the ability to evolve the system. The objective of this
study is to explore how decision making took place in industry to choose
among CSOs. Overall, 22 industrial cases have been studied through a
case survey. The results show that the solutions specifically for CSO
decisions are deterministic and based on optimization approaches. The
non-deterministic solutions proposed for architectural group decision
making appear to suit the CSO decision making in industry better.
Interestingly, the final decision was perceived negatively in nine cases
and positively in seven cases, while in the remaining cases it was
perceived as neither positive nor negative.},

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 = {Bone defects in maxillofacial regions lead to noticeable deformity and
dysfunctions. Therefore, the use of biomaterials/scaffolds for
maxillofacial bone regrowth has been attracting great interest from many
surgical specialties and experts. Many approaches have been devised in
order to create an optimal bone scaffold capable of achieving desirable
degrees of bone integration and osteogenesis. Osteogenesis represents a
complex physiological process involving multiple cooperating systems. A
tight relationship between the immune and skeletal systems has lately
been established using the concept of ``osteoimmunology,{''} since
various molecules, particularly those regulating immunological and
inflammatory processes, are shared. Inflammatory mediators are now being
implicated in bone remodeling, according to new scientific data. In this
study, a profiler PCR array was employed to evaluate the expression of
cytokines and chemokines in human adipose derived-mesenchymal stem cells
(hASCs) cultured on porous hydroxylapatite (HA)/Collagen derived
Bio-Oss((R))/Avitene scaffolds, up to day 21. In hASCs grown on the
Bio-Oss((R))/Avitene biomaterial, 12 differentially expressed genes
(DEGs) were found to be up-regulated, together with 12 DEG
down-regulated. Chemokine CCL2, which affects bone metabolism, tested
down-regulated. Interestingly, the Bio-Oss((R))/Avitene induced the
down-regulation of pro-inflammatory inter-leukin IL-6. In conclusion,
our investigation carried out on the Bio-Oss((R))/Avitene scaffold
indicates that it could be successfully employed in maxillofacial
surgery. Indeed, this composite material has the advantage of being
customized on the basis of the individual patients favoring a novel
personalized medicine approach.},

Title = {Dental Stem Cell Migration on Pulp Ceiling Cavities Filled with MTA,
Dentin Chips, or Bio-Oss},
Journal = {BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {2015},
Abstract = {MTA, Bio-Oss, and dentin chips have been successfully used in
endodontics. The aim of this study was to assess the adhesion and
migration of dental stem cells on human pulp ceiling cavities filled
with these endodontic materials in an experimental model, which mimics
the clinical conditions of regenerative endodontics. Cavities were
formed, by a homemade mold, on untouched third molars, filled with
endodontic materials, and observed with electron microscopy. Cells were
seeded on cavities' surface and their morphology and number were
analysed. The phenomenon of tropism was assessed in a migration assay.
All three materials demonstrated appropriate microstructures for cell
attachment. Cells grew on all reagents, but they showed a differential
morphology. Moreover, variations were observed when comparing cells
numbers on cavity's filling versus the surrounding dentine disc. The
highest number of cells was recorded on dentin chips whereas the
opposite was true for Bio-Oss. This was confirmed in the migration assay
where a statistically significant lower number of cells migrated towards
Bio-Oss as compared to MTA and dentin chips. This study highlights that
MTA and dentin chips have a greater potential compared to Bio-Oss
regarding the attraction of dental stem cells and are good candidates
for bioengineered pulp regeneration.},

Abstract = {Objectives: Many protocols and preparations are used for bowel cleansing
before pediatric colonoscopy but few are based on scientific evidence.
We evaluated efficacy, safety, tolerability, and patient preference of
oral sulfate solution (OSS) at 75\% of the adult dose versus
polyethylene glycol (PEG)-electrolyte solution in adolescents presenting
for diagnostic colonoscopy.Methods: Phase III, randomized,
evaluator-blinded, non-inferiority study of OSS and PEG in adolescents
aged 12-17 years. OSS and PEG were administered in 2 doses on the day
before colonoscopy. Primary endpoint included proportion of patients
with successful overall preparation (4-point scale). Secondary endpoints
included overall and segmental bowel cleansing (Boston Bowel Preparation
Scale; BBPS), completed colonoscopies, duration of examination, time to
cecal intubation, proportion of nasogastric tubes (NGTs), adverse events
(AEs) and acceptability.Results: Successful cleansing was achieved in
71.4\% and 79.0\% of patients receiving OSS and PEG, respectively
{[}adjusted difference -7.61 (95\% confidence interval, CI, -18.45 to
3.24); P = 0.0907]. Segmental BBPS score for the left and transverse
colon were similar between treatment groups, but better for the right
colon with PEG than OSS {[}2.2 (95\% CI, 2.0-2.4) and 1.9 (95\% CI,
1.7-2.1), respectively; P = 0.0015]. Significantly fewer OSS patients
needed NGT placement to ingest the whole solution {[}9/125 (7.2\%)] than
PEG patients {[}36/116 (31.0\%); P < 0.0001]. Treatment acceptability
was significantly higher with OSS than PEG (P < 0.0001). Duration of
examination, completed colonoscopies, and time to cecal intubation were
similar between preparations. Gastrointestinal AEs including nausea,
vomiting, abdominal pain, and distension were similar in both groups but
more patients receiving PEG had AEs assessed as
incapacitating.Conclusions: Non-inferiority of OSS to PEG was not
demonstrated, but OSS was associated with a lower requirement for NGT,
better acceptability, and less frequent severe AEs than with PEG.},

Title = {OSS-Qual: Holistic Scale to Assess Customer Quality Perception When
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 = {Objective: To assess titanium clip-dental floss traction-assisting
endoscopy in patients with difficulty in cannulation into the papilla
located at the lower, left or right side of the periampullary
diverticulum. Materials and Methods: Sixty-eight patients who had
difficulty in cannulation into the papilla located at the lower, left,
or right side of the periampullary diverticulum upon endoscopic
retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) were recruited at Taizhou
Hospital from July 2016 to June 2020. A random number table was used to
divide the patients into an intervention (with titanium clip-dental
floss traction) group and a control group (n=34 in each group). Patients
in both groups underwent ERCP. The cannulation time, cannulation success
rate, incidence of postprocedural complications after ERCP,
hospitalization time, and hospitalization expenses in the 2 groups were
compared. Result: The cannulation time was 15.3 +/- 4.1 minutes in the
intervention group, which was less than that in the control group (25.7
+/- 6.5 min). The cannulation success rate was 77 +/- 12.1\% in the
intervention group, which was higher than that in the control group (43
+/- 16.7\%). Postprocedural complications occurred in 2 patients in the
intervention group and 6 patients in the control group, with no
significant differences. The hospitalization time and expenses were 3.8
+/- 2.6 days and 11.1 +/- 6 thousand yuan in the intervention group,
respectively, and 6.1 +/- 3.7 days and 18.2 +/- 8 thousand yuan in the
control group, respectively. The differences were statistically
significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Titanium clip-dental floss
traction-assisting endoscopy achieved excellent efficacy in patients
with difficulty in cannulation into the papilla located at the lower,
left or right side of the periampullary diverticulum. The cannulation
success rate was improved after treatment, with good safety and
prognosis.},

Abstract = {Providing appropriate tension to the lesion and securing a stable view
of the submucosal layer is important for accomplishing successful
endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in gastric cancer. Dental floss
clip traction (DFC), a new traction method, is proposed to reduce the
difficulty of ESD. The objective of this pilot study was to investigate
the efficacy of DFC for gastric ESD.
From August to November 2014, a total of 95 patients with 104 gastric
epithelial neoplasms underwent DFC-ESD (DFC group). Historical controls
treated by conventional ESD (control group) were individually matched to
cases at a 1:1 ratio by lesion location, ulcer findings, resected
specimen size, and the proficiency of the operator (trainee/expert). The
outcomes of the procedure in the two groups were then compared.
The mean +/- A SD procedure time was 43 +/- A 24 min in the DFC group
and 52 +/- A 30 min in the control group (P < 0.01). Fewer lesions in
the DFC group needed > 80 min compared with the control group (3-vs-16
cases, P = 0.01). There were no significant differences in adverse
events between the groups. Perforation and delayed bleeding occurred in
one and four lesions, respectively, in the DFC group, and three and nine
in the control group. En bloc resection was achieved in all cases. No
significant differences were found regarding curability of ESD between
the groups.
DFC effectively reduced ESD procedure time without increasing adverse
events. DFC is helpful for rapid, safe ESD.},

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.},

Title = {Simulation of the 2003 Foss Barge - Point Wells Oil Spill: A Comparison
between BLOSOM and GNOME Oil Spill Models},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF MARINE SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {6},
Number = {3},
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

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 = {The adoption of a male pseudonym by women writers in the nineteenth
century is, as Elaine Showalter has pointed out, a sign of the woman
writer's loss of innocence, of her awareness of the necessity of role
playing in order to enter the literary mainstream. In this paper, I
intend to examine some of the self-conscious ambiguities of the
role-playing narrator of The Mill on the Floss. The use of the male
narrator is inseparably bound up with a number of compromises for the
woman writer and for the female reader. But being thus `compromised'
through vicariously living the experience of the masculine Other also
allows the woman writer privileged insight into the complex processes of
justification and rationalisation through which the masculine world-view
is engendered and sustained in narrative; it allows her imaginatively to
work through, and to see through, the tangle of cause and effect
relations which are often illegitimately marshalled into support of that
view, and to cast ironical and critical light on them.},

Abstract = {Accurate crop-type maps are urgently needed as input data for various
applications, leading to improved planning and more sustainable use of
resources. Satellite remote sensing is the optimal tool to provide such
data. Images from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite sensors are
preferably used as they work regardless of cloud coverage during image
acquisition. However, processing of SAR is more complicated and the
sensors have development potential. Dealing with such a complexity,
current studies should aim to be reproducible, open, and built upon free
and open-source software (FOSS). Thereby, the data can be reused to
develop and validate new algorithms or improve the ones already in use.
This paper presents a case study of crop classification from microwave
remote sensing, relying on open data and open software only. We used 70
multitemporal microwave remote sensing images from the Sentinel-1
satellite. A high-resolution, high-precision digital elevation model
(DEM) assisted the preprocessing. The multi-data approach (MDA) was used
as a framework enabling to demonstrate the benefits of including
external cadastral data. It was used to identify the agricultural area
prior to the classification and to create land use/land cover (LULC)
maps which also include the annually changing crop types that are
usually missing in official geodata. All the software used in this study
is open-source, such as the Sentinel Application Toolbox (SNAP), Orfeo
Toolbox, R, and QGIS. The produced geodata, all input data, and several
intermediate data are openly shared in a research database. Validation
using an independent validation dataset showed a high overall accuracy
of 96.7\% with differentiation into 11 different crop-classes.},

Abstract = {In Cuba, the authorities of the country state that we can not bet for
proprietary operating systems as a viable way for technological
development, which at the same time leads to independence in this
field.. Economic, licensing, acquisition of proprietary software via the
Internet factors and the latent possibility of claims by some
manufacturers, among many other complexities, lead to opt for another
form of software, less tied to legal restrictions and more accessible
from the economic point of view. This article aims to address social and
technological factors that characterize the migration process towards
free software in the country, the reasons for this migration, efforts
and agreements that outline state migration strategy as well as the
colors of elements that hinder this process, tempered by the ups and
downs of the migration process which draws a reality that paints a
scenario nothing conclusive of successes and failures.},

Title = {Successful traction-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection using

Abstract = {Recently, traction-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) using
a clip and thread was reported as useful for treating lesions in the
esophagus, stomach, and colorectum in terms of shortening the duration
of the procedures and reducing the risk of intraoperative perforation.
However, no traction method using the thread and clip for duodenal ESD
as described in this article has been reported to date. We report a case
in which traction-assisted ESD using dental floss and a clip was
successfully performed on a huge superficial nonampullary duodenal
epithelial tumor accompanied by severe fibrosis caused by preoperative
biopsies. A 65-year-old woman had a 55-mm flat-elevated tumor in the
second part of the duodenum. Severe fibrosis of the submucosal layer was
expected due to repeated biopsies at the same site by the patient's
previous endoscopist. We selected ESD for this lesion, and the initial
incision was started from the side proximal to the lesion, but it was
difficult to insert the scope under the submucosal layer directly
beneath the biopsy scar. Therefore, traction with an endoclip and dental
floss was performed to lift the lesion. Excellent traction allowed safe
resection of the fibrotic part under accurate visual observation.
Finally, the lesion was resected en bloc without adverse events.
Traction-assisted ESD using dental floss and a clip is likely to be an
effective adjunctive technique for quick, safe, and successful resection
of lesions in the duodenum on which it is difficult to perform ordinary
ESD and that have a high probability of intraoperative perforation and
massive bleeding.},

Abstract = {Despite the fact that public sector's interest in open source is
intensifying, as many governments turn to freely available software in
the belief that it is quick and inexpensive to implement, and that it
can be tailored to their needs, Open Source Software (OSS) still faces
barriers. In many regions of Europe, that include mostly Associate
Candidate Countries (ACC) and New Member States (NMS), the barriers are
even more pronounced, because of various social, political, economical,
and technical factors. This paper will dive into the barriers and
obstacles faced, and will refer to successful experiences that provide
important lessons learned for the take-up of OSS in Public
Administration. Governments are in the unique position of pushing the
adoption of open source. The large-scale adoption of vertical
applications at the local level and the influence of favorable
procurement will come together to make OSS government application a
viable option during the next five years.},

Abstract = {Biological interactions occurring at the bone-biomaterial interface are
critical for long-term clinical success. Bio-Oss (R) is a deproteinized,
sterilized bovine bone that has been extensively used in bone
regeneration procedures. The aim of the present study was a comparative
light, scanning, and electron microscopy evaluation of the interface
between Bio-Oss (R) and bone in specimens retrieved after sinus
augmentation procedures. Under light microscopy, most of the particles
were surrounded by newly formed bone, while in a few cases, at the
interface of some particles it was possible to observe marrow spaces and
biological fluids. Under scanning electron microscopy, in most cases,
the particle perimeter appeared lined by bone that was tightly adherent
to the biomaterial surface. Transmission electron microscopy showed that
the bone tissue around the biomaterial showed all the phases of the bone
healing process. In some areas, randomly organized collagen fibers were
present, while in other areas, newly formed compact bone was present. In
the first bone lamella collagen fibers contacting the Bio-Oss (R)
surface were oriented at 243.73 +/- 7.12 degrees (mean +/- SD), while in
the rest of the lamella they were oriented at 288.05 +/- 4.86 degrees
(mean +/- SD) with a statistically significant difference of 44.32
degrees (p < 0.001). In the same areas the intensity of gray value was
172.56 +/- 18.15 (mean +/- SD) near the biomaterial surface and 158.71
+/- 21.95 (mean +/- SD) in the other part of the lamella with an
unstatistically significant difference of 13.79 (P = 0.071). At the
bone-biomaterial interface there was also an electron-dense layer
similar to cement lines. This layer had a variable morphology being, in
some areas, a thin line, and in other areas, a thick irregular band. The
analyses showed that Bio-Oss (R) particles do not interfere with the
normal osseous healing process after sinus lift procedures and promote
new bone formation. In conclusion, this study serves as a better
understanding of the morphollogic characteristics of Bio-Oss (R) and its
interaction with the surrounding tissues. (c) 2005 Wiley Periodicals,

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 = {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.},

Abstract = {A coated nanoemulsion (CNE)-based edible film was fabricated on the
surface of fish floss (FF) to extend its shelf life during storage. The
antioxidant tea polyphenol (TPP) was embedded into W/O microemulsion,
which was further encapsulated into multiple emulsion (Multi-E) together
with functional soluble dietary fiber (SDF). The physicochemical
properties indicated that the nanoemulsion-based edible film (NEF)
improved the morphology of FF and reduced the crystallinity of the film
by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The
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.},

Title = {Phytochemical Properties of Silk Floss Tree Stem Bark Extract and Its
Potential as an Eco-Friendly Biocontrol Agent against Potato
Phytopathogenic Microorganisms},

Abstract = {In the current study, the ethanolic extract of the stem bark of Ceiba
speciosa, the silk floss tree (SFSB), was evaluated against various
phytopathogenic microorganisms, including Ralstonia solanacearum,
Dickeya solani, Pectobacterium atrosepticum, P. carotovorum, Fusarium
oxysporum, and Rhizoctonia solani. At 300 mu g/mL concentration, the
SFSB extract exhibited the highest inhibition percentages of 83.33 and
86.67 for R. solani and F. oxysporum, respectively. In addition to its
antimicrobial activity, SFSB extract exhibited strong antioxidant
activity (IC50 value of 140.88 g/mL). HPLC analysis of the extract
revealed the presence of various phenolic acids and flavonoids. Among
these compounds, naringenin (18,698.83 mu g/g), chlorogenic acid
(2727.49 mu g/g), ferulic acid (1276.18 mu g/g), syringic acid (946.26
mu g/g), gallic acid (812.34 mu g/g), and methyl gallate (651.73 mu g/g)
were found to be the most abundant constituents. GCMS analysis showed
that there were antimicrobial compounds like terpenoids, benzoic acid
derivatives, phthalate esters, and different fatty acids. Isopropyl
myristate was the most common compound, with a relative abundance of
55.61\%. To our knowledge, this is the first investigation on the
phytochemical composition and antimicrobial properties of SFSB extract.
Consequently, utilizing SFSB extract could hold significant potential as
a sustainable and natural approach for controlling and mitigating plant
diseases.},

Abstract = {Open source software (OSS) projects represent a new paradigm of software
creation and development based on hundreds or even thousands of
developers and users organised in the form of a virtual community. The
success of an OSS project is closely linked to the successful
organisation and development of the virtual community of support. The
main objective of this article is to analyse the activity of virtual
communities. Social network analysis is employed to analyse Linux ports
to embedded processors as a case study to achieve this aim. The obtained
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
industry migrating to the open source software paradigm.},

Abstract = {Background and Overview. Generalized refractory chronic periodontitis is
a periodontal condition that is resistant to conventional therapy.
Management of this condition often is frustrating to both the patient
and the clinician.
Case Descriptions. The authors present 4 cases of generalized refractory
chronic periodontitis characterized by an inflammatory gingival response
and progressive bone loss that did not respond to extensive periodontal
treatments and regular periodontal care. Histologic examination of
affected gingival tissue revealed an abundance of plasma cells, a
feature seen in certain oral contact hypersensitivity reactions. The
authors suspected that waxed or coated dental floss was the offending
contactant, and its removal from the patients' oral hygiene regimens
resulted in a dramatic improvement of the periodontal characteristics.
Conclusions and Practical Implications. In cases of periodontal disease
as described in this report, dental practitioners should consider the
possibility of a contact hypersensitivity reaction to waxed or coated
dental floss, whereby the floss exacerbates the condition instead of
assisting in its resolution.},

widely studied over the years. The reasons people engage in this
seemingly altruistic behavior have been elaborated and classified. The
present work addresses a slightly different issue: what motivates
individuals to participate in community network projects? Are the
reasons similar to or quite distinct from these relevant to contributors
to free software? Based on recently conducted interviews with community
network activists from the Germany based project Freifunk and
established FLOSS motivation research, we will analyse the specifics of
the Freifunk project and the factors which spur its members to action.
The obtained insights could then hopefully be used to understand the

Abstract = {Background In locations where the alveolar bone height is low, such as
at the maxillary molars, implant placement can be difficult, or even
impossible, without procedures aimed at generating new bone, such as
sinus lifts. Various types of bone graft materials are used after a
sinus lift. In our study, a three-dimensional image analysis using a
volume analyzer was performed to measure and compare the volume of
demineralized bovine bone mineral (Bio-Oss (R)) and carbonate apatite
(Cytrans (R)) after a sinus lift, as well as the amount of bone graft
material resorption. Patient data were collected from cone-beam computed
tomography images taken before, immediately following, and 6 months
after the sinus lift. Using these images, both the volume and amount of
resorption of each bone graft material were measured using a
three-dimensional image analysis system. Results The amount of bone
resorption in the Bio-Oss (R)-treated group was 25.2\%, whereas that of
the Cytrans (R)-treated group was 14.2\%. A significant difference was
found between the two groups (P < 0.001). Conclusions Our findings
indicate that the volume of bone resorption was smaller in the Cytrans
(R)-treated group than in the Bio-Oss (R)-treated group, suggesting that
Cytrans (R) is more promising for successful implant treatments
requiring a sinus lift.},

Abstract = {Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a prolonged procedure with
serious adverse events. The clip with line traction method was reported
to improve ESD. However, there was no comparison with conventional ESD
especially for trainees. We report here on the feasibility and efficacy
of traction using dental floss with endoscopic clip to facilitate ESD
versus conventional method for ESD trainees.
Twenty simulated gastric lesions, paired with location and size, were
created in porcine stomachs using a standard template. After a circular
incision was made, submucosal dissection (control, n = 10) was performed
with standard ESD, while the study (clip, n = 10) was performed with
traction using dental floss and endoclip. Primary outcome was speed of
submucosal dissection. Secondary outcome included frequency of
submucosal injection and adverse event.
Compared with controls, median procedure time was significantly shorter
in the clip group (5.6 +/- A 1.1 vs. 13.6 +/- A 2.5 min, P = 0.003),
with a significantly faster submucosal dissection time (1.8 +/- A 0.3
vs. 0.6 +/- A 0.1 cm(2)/min, P = 0.001) and less frequent submucosal
injection (5.7 +/- A 0.6 vs. 8.5 +/- A 1.0 times, P = 0.024). There were
no perforations in either group, but less adverse events (bleeding and
injury to muscularis propria) in the clip group (1 vs. 7, P = 0.068,
alpha = 0.1).
Traction provided by dental floss and endoclip improves visualization of
the submucosal layer during ESD. It allows a faster and safer gastric
ESD especially among trainees in the early learning phase.},

Title = {CGF with Bio-Oss collagen as grafting materials for simultaneous implant
placement after osteotome sinus floor elevation: a prospective study},
Journal = {BMC ORAL HEALTH},
Year = {2024},

Abstract = {BackgroundOsteotome sinus floor elevation (OSFE) procedure with
simultaneous implant placement is known to be an efficient procedure in
the atrophic maxilla, where bone regeneration is required the most. The
purpose of this study was to radiologically evaluate the efficacy of
using Bio-Oss Collagen with Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF) as grafting
materials for OSFE with simultaneous implant placement in the atrophic
maxilla after one year of functional loading.MethodsA total of 126
implants were placed for 123 patients. Our inclusion criteria were
patients with Residual Bone Height (RBH) <= 5 whom underwent OSFE
procedure and simultaneous implant placement with different grafting
materials: Group A with no grafting materials, Group B with Bio-Oss bone
graft, and Group C with Bio-Oss Collagen with CGF. The Implants Survival
Rate (ISR) was the primary outcome variable. Secondary outcome variables
included radiographic measurements assessed at four follow-up time
points, the Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ), and bone density (B).
Indicators of bone formation were compared at different time points.
Appropriate statistical analyses were conducted, with statistical
significance set at a P value of 0.05 for all tests.ResultsISR was 96\%.
A significant positive relationship was found between RBH and ISR, {[}r
(126) = .359, p = .000]. Endo sinus bone gain indictors increased in
both grafted groups as compared to the non-grafted group. Total Bone
Resorption (TBR1) and (TBR2) significantly decreased in both grafted
groups compared to the non-grafted group (P = .004, P = .000). Graft
size (D) was a positive predictor for ISR at three time points: D0 (odds
ratio {[}OR] 8.06; 95\% CI 1.59 to 38.24; P = .010); D1 (OR 96.58; 95\%
CI 1.69 to 5.52; P = .027); D2 (OR 4.97; 95\% CI 1.29 to 19.19; P =
.020). Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain score significantly increased in
Group B compared to Groups A and C (P = .000).ConclusionThe combination
of Bio-Oss Collagen with CGF as grafting material is a reliable protocol
after OSFE with simultaneous implant placement in the atrophic maxilla.
This approach is accompanied by high patient satisfaction.},

Abstract = {Maxillary sinus lift and bone graft are used to reconstruct atrophic
maxilla molar area for endosseous dental implants. Many different
grafting materials and techniques can be used for maxillary sinus bone
graft.
Bio-Oss (R) has been proposed as bone substitute and successfully
utilized as osteoconductive filler. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is an
autologous material with many growth factors, such as PDGF, TGF-beta,
IGF, VEGF, facilitating bone healing process. And Platelet poor plasma
(PPP) is the by-product in procedure of producing PRP.
Six rabbits were used as experimental animal. Both maxillary sinus were
grafted with Bio-Oss (R) and PRP, and Bio-Oss (R) and PPP. Rabbits were
sacrificed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks. The grafting sites were evaluated by
histomorphometric analysis.
As a result, using PRP showed excellent bone formation in the early
stage, but no further significant effect after that. In late stage, the
ability of bone formation of using PRP was even worse than using PPP.
The further studies need to be considered in this case.},

Title = {The versatility of Bio-Oss® Collagen in orthognathic surgery: two case
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.},

Title = {Evaluation of Peri-Implantitis Bone Defect Healing: Comparing the
Efficacy of Small-Particle Dentin and Bio-Oss in Bone Density
Attenuation},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CLINICAL MEDICINE},
Year = {2024},
Volume = {13},

Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Introduction: Peri-implantitis is a serious complication in dental
implantology that, if left untreated, may lead to implant loss and
systemic diseases. Effective regeneration of bone defects resulting from
peri-implantitis is crucial to maintaining the functionality of dental
implants. Purpose of the Study: The study aimed to compare the
effectiveness of fine-particle dentin and Bio-Oss in the reconstruction
of bone defects caused by peri-implantitis. Materials and Methods: The
study included a comprehensive radiological assessment of changes in
bone density over time. Bone density was assessed using Hounsfield Units
(HUs) as a measure of bone attenuation, with radiological assessments
performed at 8- and 12-week intervals during the healing process. The
study included participants ranging in age from 30 to 65 years.
Fifty-seven patients were divided into three groups: 22 patients
received small-particle dentin, 15 received Bio-Oss, and 20 controls
without bone substitute material. Results: The fine-dentin group showed
a 20\% increase in bone density after 8 weeks (p < 0.05), while the
Bio-Oss group showed a 15\% increase after 12 weeks (p < 0.05). The
control group showed minimal changes in bone density (5\% after 12
weeks), which was not statistically significant. Clinical evaluations
showed 95\% successful integration in the fine dentin group, 85\% in the
Bio-Oss group, and 70\% in the control group. The fine-dentin group
showed a 20\% increase in bone density after 8 weeks (p < 0.05), while
the Bio-Oss group showed a 15\% increase after 12 weeks (p < 0.05). The
control group showed minimal changes in bone density (5\% after 12
weeks), which was not statistically significant. Clinical evaluations
showed 95\% successful integration in the fine-dentin group, 85\% in the
Bio-Oss group, and 70\% in the control group. Conclusions: Both
fine-particle dentin and Bio-Oss significantly improved bone density
compared to the control group. Fine-particle dentin is suitable for
immediate bone regeneration due to its rapid initial regeneration, while
Bio-Oss provides long-term support, ideal for maintaining implant
stability over a longer period of time. The results highlight the
importance of selecting appropriate bone replacement materials depending
on the clinical scenario to improve patient outcomes after dental
implant placement.},

Through-and-Through Wiring Technique and Rapid Ventricular Pacing for an
Ascending Aortic Tuberculous Pseudoaneurysm},
Journal = {ANNALS OF VASCULAR SURGERY},

Abstract = {Background: To demonstrate an ascending aortic tuberculosis
pseudoaneurysm successfully treated with endografts under assistance of
trans-apical body floss wiring technique and rapid ventricular pacing
support.
Method and Result: A 77-year-old woman with a non-healing anteromedial
chest wound presented with sudden hypotension and hemoptysis. The
computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a 9-cm-diameter pseudoaneurysm of
ascending aorta, with sternal erosion close to the wound. Conventional
open repair was not preferred due to possible contamination of
interposition graft and difficult sternum closure. The feasibility of
endografting was confirmed based on appropriate landing zones. After
endografts modification at back table, we made a left minithoracotomy
and establish a through-and-through body floss wire from left
ventricular apex to femoral artery. Retrograde delivery over this wire
from femoral artery to ascending aorta and deployment of endografts
under rapid ventricular pacing support were performed smoothly. Final
angiography showed no endoleaks with patent coronary and arch vessels.
Further wound debridement was done at the same time and wound culture
yielded tuberculosis. After completing anti-tuberculosis therapy, no
recurrent infection occurred. Postoperative 6-month CT scan disclosed
optimal result.
Conclusion: With adequate landing zones and delicate surgical strategy,
endografting with anti-tuberculosis therapy may be an alternative
treatment for ascending aortic tuberculosis pseudoaneurysm.},

Title = {Structural characteristics of dietary fiber (Vigna radiata L. hull) and
its inhibitory effect on phospholipid digestion as an additive in fish
floss},
Journal = {FOOD CONTROL},
Year = {2019},

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
spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The distinctive surface and
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.},

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.},

Title = {REGOMA-OSS: a large, Italian, multicenter, prospective, observational
study evaluating the efficacy and safety of regorafenib in patients with
recurrent glioblastoma},
Journal = {ESMO OPEN},

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.},

Abstract = {Several bone grafting materials have been used in sinus augmentation
procedures. Bio-Oss (deproteinized and sterilized bovine bone) has shown
to have osteoconductive properties and no inflammatory or adverse
responses have been published. In spite of these successful results,
histologic data regarding bone augmentation using Bio-Oss in humans is
scarce. The purpose of this study was to analyse the amount of Bio-Oss
ossification in a case of maxillary sinus augmentation, recording and
comparing histomorphometric data 8 months, 2 and 10 years after surgery.
This long-term histologic evaluation of retrieved specimens has been
performed, comparing histomorfometric measures at different times. Eight
months after surgery we observed in 20 different thin sections of the
specimen a mean amount of bone tissue (including medullar spaces) of
29.8\% (and 70.2\% of Bio-Oss) +/- 2.6. At 2 years the bone tissue
increased to 69.7\% + 2.7 and 10 years after surgery it was 86.7\% +/-
2.8. The comparison of the means for each time has shown a highly
significant increasing trend in bone formation associated with Bio-oss
resorption: at 8 months, 2 and 10 years.},

Title = {Impact of early palliative care on additional line of chemotherapy in
metastatic breast cancer patients: results from the randomized study OSS},

Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Purpose The most appropriate criteria and timing for palliative care
referral remain a critical issue, especially in patients with metastatic
breast cancer for whom long-term chemosensibility and survival are
observed. We aimed to compare the impact of early palliative care
including formal concertation with oncologists on decision for an
additional line of chemotherapy compared with usual oncology care.
Methods This randomized prospective study enrolled adult women with
metastatic breast cancer and visceral metastases with a 3rd- or 4th-line
chemotherapy (CT). Patients received usual oncology care with a
palliative care consultation only upon patient or oncologist request
(standard group, S) or were referred to systematic palliative care
consultation including a regular concertation between palliative care
team and oncologists (early palliative care group, EPC). The primary
endpoint was the rate of an additional CT (4th or 5th line) decision.
Quality of life, symptoms, social support and satisfaction were
self-evaluated at 6 and 12 months, at treatment discontinuation or 3
months after discontinuation. Results From January 2009 to November
2012, two authorized cancer centers included 98 women (EPC: 50; S: 48).
Thirty-seven (77.1\%, 95\%CI 62.7-88\%) patients in the EPC group had a
subsequent chemotherapy prescribed and 36 (72.0\%, 95\%CI 57.5-83.8\%)
in the S group (p = 0.646). No differences in symptom control and global
quality of life were observed, but less deterioration in physical
functioning was reported in EPC (EPC: 0 {[}- 53-40]; S: - 6; 7 {[}- 60
to - 20]; p = 0.027). Information exchange and communication were
significant improved in EPC (exchange, EPC: - 8.3 {[}- 30 to + 7]; S:
0.0 {[}- 17 to + 23]; p = 0.024; communication, EPC: 12.5 {[}- 8 to -
37]; S: 0.0 {[}- 21 to + 17]; p = 0.004). Conclusion EPC in metastatic
breast cancer patients did not impact the prescription rate of
additional chemotherapy in patients a 3rd- or 4th-line chemotherapy for
metastatic breast cancer; however, EPC may contribute to alleviate
deterioration in physical functioning, while facilitating communication.},

Abstract = {Nowadays, applying natural, biodegradable, non-toxic, and bioactive
materials is the first choice of food, biomedical, cosmetic, and textile
industries. Due to this reason, this research focused on the preparation
of a biomaterial sheet using natural material and with a low-cost
method. Firstly, a silk floss sheet (SFS) was prepared using the waste
cocoons by degumming, opening up, and finishing process. Afterward, the
biodegradable ss-cyclodextrin (ss-CD) was successfully grafted onto SFS
using citric acid (CA) through the pad-dry-cure method. Then, Iranian
herbal essential oils (Shirazi thyme and Dermaneh) were loaded into the
cavities of ss-CD molecules. Then, the samples were investigated using
SEM and elemental analysis. The inclusion complex formed between the
herbal essential oils and the ss-CD cavity (HEOs- ss-CD) was also
evaluated using high-sensitivity analyses of FTIR, XRD, and UV-Visible.
Furthermore, free HEOs and HEOs- ss-CD inclusion complex were assessed
for their ability to scavenge the 2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)
radical, and the results showed that the HEOs- ss-CD inclusion complex
can improve antioxidant activity compared to the free HEOs. The
antimicrobial activity of the prepared SFS was also determined against
Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans by quality
and quantity methods. The results have shown that the modified SFS has a
high resistance against the mentioned microorganisms. In addition, the
SFS had no negative effect on the viability of the Vero cell line. It
seems that the ss-CD-SFS loaded with essential oils can be a good
candidate for biomaterial applications and controlled release systems.},

Title = {Nonmetastatic osteosarcoma of the extremity. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy
with methotrexate, cisplatin, doxorubicin and ifosfamide. An Italian
Sarcoma Group study (ISG/OS-Oss)},
Journal = {TUMORI JOURNAL},

Abstract = {Background. Based on the results of the ISG/OS-1 study, the MAP regimen
(methotrexate {[}MTX], doxorubicin {[}ADM] and cisplatin {[}CDP] with
the addition of ifosfamide {[}IFO] in poor-responder patients) was
investigated in patients with nonmetastatic osteosarcoma of the
extremity (ISG/OS-Oss study).
Patients and methods. Compared with the ISG/OS-1 study (cumulative
doses: ADM 420 mg/m(2), MTX 120 g/m(2), CDP 600 mg/m(2), IFO 30 g/m(2)),
the ISG/OS-Oss study reduced the number of MTX cycles from 10 to 5
(cumulative MTX dose: 60 g/m(2)) in order to diminish treatment duration
and toxicity.
Results. From January 2007 to June 2011, 171 patients (median age 16
years, 60\% males) were registered. The limb salvage rate was 94\% and
the good pathologic response rate 51\% (these figures were 92\% and
48\%, respectively, in the ISG/OS-1 study). At a median follow-up of 39
months (range, 4-80), the 5-year overall survival rate was 80\% (95\%
CI, 73\%-87\%) and the event-free survival was 50\% (95\% CI,
39\%-59\%). For comparison, the 5-year overall and event-free survival
rates in ISG/OS-1 were 73\% (95\% CI, 65\%-81\%) and 64\% (95\% CI,
56\%-73\%), respectively.
Conclusions. This study confirms that in nonmetastatic osteosarcoma of
the extremity, conservative surgery in more than 90\% and a good
pathologic response rate of 50\% can be expected with primary
chemotherapy based on the MAP regimen. The response and resection rates
in the ISG/OS-Oss study are in the same range as those of the previous
study, whereas the event-free survival is lower than that previously
achieved. Since the only difference between the two studies was the
cumulative dose of postoperatively given MTX, our data support the
importance of the cumulative dose of MTX in the MAP regimen.},

Abstract = {The successful elucidation of an unknown compound's molecular structure
often requires an analyst with profound knowledge and experience of
advanced spectroscopic techniques, such as Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
(NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The implementation of
Computer-Assisted Structure Elucidation (CASE) software in solving for
unknown structures, such as isolated natural products and/or reaction
impurities, can serve both as elucidation and teaching tools. As such,
the introduction of CASE software with 112 exercises to train students
in conjunction with the traditional pen and paper approach will
strengthen their overall understanding of solving unknowns and explore
of various structural end points to determine the validity of the
results quickly. Copyright (C) 2016 John Wiley \& Sons, Ltd.},

Abstract = {The objective of this single-blind randomized controlled trial was to
test the hypothesis of no difference in implant treatment outcome and
patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) following osteotome-mediated
sinus floor elevation with Bio-Oss Collagen (test) compared with no
grafting material (control) after 1 year of implant loading. Forty
healthy patients (27 female, 13 male) with a mean age of 49 years (range
24-74 years) were randomly allocated to the test or control group.
Outcome measures included survival of the suprastructures and implants,
periimplant marginal bone loss, complications, and PROMs; the latter
included the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 and a self-administered
questionnaire with visual analogue scales to assess the peri-implant
tissue, implant crown, function of the implant, total implant treatment
outcome, and oral health-related quality of life. Mean differences were
expressed with the standard deviation and 95\% confidence interval. The
level of significance was 0.05. Survival of the suprastructures and
implants was 100\% with both treatment modalities. No significant
difference in any of the outcome measures was observed between the test
and control groups. High patient satisfaction and a significant
improvement in quality of life were observed with both treatment
modalities. Consequently, no significant difference in implant treatment
outcome between the test and control groups was revealed after 1 year of
implant loading. Neither of the treatment modalities can therefore be
considered better than the other.},

Abstract = {Many materials are used for sinus augmentation procedures. Anorganic
bovine bone (Bio-Oss) has been reported to be osteoconductive, and no
inflammatory responses have been observed with the use of this
biomaterial. One of the main questions pertaining to Bio-Oss concerns
its biodegradation and substitution by host bone. Some investigators
have observed rapid replacement by host bone, while other researchers
observed slow resorptive activity or no resorption at all. The aim of
the present study was to conduct a long-term histologic analysis of
retrieved specimens in humans where Bio-Oss was used in sinus
augmentation procedures. Specimens were retrieved from 20 patients after
varying peri ods from 6 months to 4 years and were processed to obtain
thin ground sections. Bio-Oss particles were surrounded for the most
part by mature, compact bone. In some Haversian canals it was possible
to observe small capillaries, mesenchymal cells, and osteoblasts in
conjunction with new bone. No gaps were present at the interface between
the Bio-Oss particles and newly formed bone, in specimens retrieved
after 18 months and 4 years, it was also possible to observe the
presence of osteoclasts in the process of resorbing the Bio-Oss
particles and neighboring newly formed bone. Bio-Oss appears to be
highly biocompatible and osteoconductive, is slowly resorbed in humans,
and can be used with success as a bone substitute in maxillary sinus
augmentation procedures.},

was to compare the results of sinus elevation performed without a
membrane (control) with the results of sinus elevation performed with
either a short-term bioabsorbable membrane (Bio-Gide) or a nonabsorbable
membrane (Gore-Tex) with regard to both vital bone formation and implant
survival. Sinus lifts were performed on 51 patients (38 unilateral, 13
bilateral) with the delayed placement of 135 implants. Histomorphometric
data were obtained at the time of implant placement, 6 to 10 months
following the grafting procedure. Vital bone formation was 17.6\%,
16.9\%, and 12.1\%, respectively, for the Bio-Gide, Gore-Tex, and no
membrane groups. Of the 135 implants placed there were 3 failures (2
Bio-Gide, 1 GoreTex). There was no significant difference between the
membrane groups as to vital bone formation and implant survival.},

Abstract = {The objective of this study was to determine the predictability of
endosseous implants placed in a maxillary sinus grafted with a mixture
of bovine porous bone mineral and demineralized freeze-dried bone. Sixty
implants were placed in 20 patients representing 28 sinuses using either
a one- or two-stage technique. After an implant loading period of more
than 2 years, the survival rate (eg, a clinically functioning implant
without signs of mobility or infection) varied from 90\% to 96\%. No
infections or other complications were encountered. The data suggest
that this treatment regimen can result in a high rate of survival.},

Abstract = {The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of combining
Bio-Oss with bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) transfected with the
basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) gene on bone regeneration during
mandibular distraction of rabbits. BMSCs obtained from rabbits were
transfected with bFGF gene-encoding plasmids and proliferation rate and
the differentiation marker alkaline phosphatase activity were measured.
Following seeding into Bio-Oss collagen and 9-day culture in vitro, the
surface morphology of the Bio-Oss was assessed using scanning electron
microscopy analysis. Three mandibular defects were induced in the lower
border of the bilateral mandibular ramus in each New Zealand white
rabbit (total n=6). Three scaffolds, group A (seeded with BMSCs/bFGF), B
(seeded with BMSCs/pVAX1) and C (cell-free), which had been cultured in
vitro under standard cell culture conditions for 18 days, were implanted
into mandibular defects under sterile conditions. Animals were
sacrificed by anesthesia overdose 12 weeks following surgery and the
scaffolds were extracted for bone mineral density and histological
analyses. Results indicate that bFGF was successfully transfected into
BMSCs. Proliferation and osteoblast differentiation of BMSCs were
stimulated by bFGE: in vitro. No differences were identified in surface
morphology for Bio-Oss loaded with variable groups of cells. At week 12
following implantation of Bio-Oss scaffolds, mineralization of BMSCs in
Bio-Oss scaffolds was observed to be increased by bFGF. New bone and
cartilage formation was revealed in hematoxylin and eosin-stained
sections in Bio-Oss scaffolds and was most abundant in group A (BMSCs
transfected with bFGF). In the current study, the bFGF gene was
transfected into BMSCs and expressed successfully. bFGF promoted
proliferation and differentiation of BMSCs in vitro and implantation of
bFGF-expressing BMSCs combined with Bio-Oss enhanced new bone
regeneration more effectively than traditional methods.},

Abstract = {The aim of the present study was to evaluate bone formation following
maxillary sinus augmentation using bovine bone substitute material
Bio-Oss(R) in combination with venous blood by means of histologic and
histomorphometric examination of human biopsies. This involved a total
of 15 sinus floor elevation procedures being carried out on 11 patients
(average age of 49.6 years) according to the technique described by
Tatum (1986). The subantral sinus cavity was augmented using bovine
apatite combined with venous blood. After an average healing phase of
6.8 months, trephine burrs were used to take 22 bone biopsies from the
augmented sinus region. Then 38 Branemark(R) implants were inserted in
both the osteotomies resulting from bone sampling and in regular sites
in the augmented posterior maxilla. Histomorphometric analysis of ground
sections from the bone biopsies prepared according to the standard
method of Donath \& Breuner (1982) produced an average percentage of
newly-formed bone of 14.7\% (+/-5.0\%) and a proportion of residual
xenogenic bone substitute material of 29.7\% (+/-7.8\%). Some 29.1\%
(+/-8.1\%) of the surface of the Bio-Oss(R) granulate was in direct
contact with newly-formed bone. Histologically, newly-developed bone
became evident, partly invaginating the particles of apatite and forming
bridges in the form of trabeculae between the individual Bio-Oss(R)
particles. Despite the absence of osteoclastic activity, the inward
growth of bone indicates slow resorption of the xenogenic bone graft
material. When the implants were uncovered, after an average healing
phase of 6 months, 4 of the 38 implants had become loose. Of these 4
implants, 1 had to be subsequently explanted, while the others remained
as ``sleeping implants{''} and were not included in the implants
superstructure. Thus, the resulting clinical survival rate, prior to
prosthetic loading, was 89.5\%.},

Abstract = {Background The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the
clinical efficacy of mineralized collagen (MC) versus anorganic bovine
bone (Bio-Oss) for immediate implant placement in esthetic area. Methods
Medical records of Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of
Shandong Provincial Hospital were screened for patients who had been
treated with immediate implant implantation in the esthetic area using
either MC (Allgens (R), Beijing Allgens Medical Science and Technology
Co., Ltd., China) or Bio-Oss (Bio-Oss (R), Geistlich Biomaterials,
Wolhusen, Switzerland), between January 2018 and December 2019. All
patients fulfilling the in-/exclusion criteria and following followed
for a minimum period of 1 year after surgery were enrolled into the
presented study. Implant survival rate, radiographic, esthetic and
patient satisfactory evaluations were performed. Results Altogether, 70
patients were included in the study; a total of 80 implants were
inserted. All implants had good initial stability. The survival rate of
implants was 100\% at 1-year follow-up. The differences in horizontal
and vertical bone loss between the MC group (0.72 +/- 0.26 mm, 1.62 +/-
0.84 mm) and the Bio-Oss group (0.70 +/- 0.52 mm, 1.57 +/- 0.88 mm) were
no significant difference statistically no significant 6 months after
permanent restoration. Similar results occurred at 12 months after
permanent restoration functional loaded. Clinical acceptability defined
by pink esthetic score (PES) >= 6 (6.07 +/- 1.62 vs. 6.13 +/- 1.41) was
not significantly different between groups. Patient satisfaction
estimated by visual analog scale (VAS) was similar (8.56 +/- 1.12 vs.
8.27 +/- 1.44), and the difference was no significant difference between
the two groups. Conclusions The biomimetic MC showed a similar behaviour
as Bio-Oss not only in its dimensional tissues changes but also in
clinical acceptability and patient satisfaction. Within the limitations
of this study, these cases show that MC could be considered as an
alternative bone graft in IIP},

Abstract = {One of the major issues for telecom operators today is how to rapidly
identify the cause of failure and affected services within a multi-layer
and multi-domain network to achieve high-quality service on an
end-to-end basis. 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.},

Title = {Sinus Floor Augmentation Using Straumann® BoneCeramic™ and Bio-Oss® in a
Split Mouth Design and Later Placement of Implants: A 5-Year Report from
a Longitudinal Study},

Year = {2016},

Abstract = {Background: Straumann (R) BoneCeramic (TM) is a synthetic biphasic
calcium phosphate (BCP) aimed for sinus floor augmentation. Long-term
follow-up of implants placed in BCP after sinus augmentation is still
missing.
Purpose: The primary aim of the study was to compare survival rates and
marginal bone loss of Straumann SLActive implants placed in either BCP
(test) or Bio-Oss (R) (DBB) (control) after sinus floor augmentation.
The secondary aim was to calculate graft sinus height at different time
points.
Materials and Methods: Bilateral sinus floor augmentation was performed
in a split mouth model. Eleven patients (mean age 67 years) received
100\% BCP on one side and 100\% DBB on the contralateral side. After 8
months of graft healing, 62 Straumann SLActive implants were placed.
After 5 years of functional loading (6 years after augmentation) of
implants, marginal bone levels and grafted sinus height were measured,
and implant survival and success rates were calculated.
Results: After 5 years of loading, all prosthetic constructions were in
function although two implants were lost in each grafting material. The
overall implant survival rate was 93.5\% (91.7\% for BCP, 91.3\% for
DBB, and 100\% for residual bone). The success rates were 83.3\% and
91.3\% for BCP and DBB, respectively. There was no statistically
significant difference in mean marginal bone level after 5 years between
BCP (1.4 +/- 1.2 mm) and DBB (1.0 +/- 0.7 mm). Graft height reduction
(GHR) after 6 years was limited to 6.6\% for BCP and 5.8\% for DBB.
Conclusion: In this limited RCT study, the choice of biomaterial used
for sinus floor augmentation did not seem to have any impact on survival
rates and marginal bone level of the placed implants after 5 years of
functional loading and GHR was minimal.},

Abstract = {ObjectivesAlthough the clinical success of Bio-Oss((R)) and
BoneCeramic((R)) has been corroborated by histologic and
histomorphometric findings, the biological events that occur during
healing after maxillary sinus floor elevation (MSFE) are unknown. Here,
we evaluated biopsies of grafted bone with a mixture of autologous bone
and Bio-Oss((R)) or BoneCeramic((R)) after two different healing time
periods to understand the molecular process underlying bone formation
after MSFE.
Material and methodsSeven patients, following a bilateral split-mouth
design model and needing a MSFE to allow implant placement, were
recruited for this study. Right or left sinuses were grafted with
autologous maxillary bone combined either with Bio-Oss((R)) or
BoneCeramic((R)), respectively. Twenty biopsies were taken at the time
of implant insertion after 4-5months or 6-8months of MSFE, and analyzed
by micro-computed tomography (microCT) and gene-expression analysis.
ResultsMicroCT analysis revealed no differences in the morphometric
parameters or BMD either after 4-5months or 6-8months of MSFE between
Bio-Oss((R)) and BoneCeramic((R)). At molecular level, a higher
expression of bone forming gene Runx2 was observed after 4-5months of
MSFE in the Bio-Oss((R)) compared with the BoneCeramic((R)) group.
ConclusionsOur results indicate that differences found at the molecular
level between Bio-Oss((R)) and BoneCeramic((R)) are not translated to
important differences in the 3D microstructure and BMD of the grafted
bone.},

K) in the 1-8 MPa pressure range The total system pressure was
maintained introducing CH4 The inlet mole fraction of DMS was the same
in all experiments, around 1 5 x 10(-3) in the liquid phase A
``static-analytic{''} method was used for performing all of the
measurements The objective is to provide experimental VLE data for the
dimethyl sulfide + CH4 + water system, for which no data are available
in the open literature These data will allow industry to model sulfur
emissions The new VLE data as well as the VLE data of some binary
systems from the literature containing organic sulfur species +
hydrocarbon, organic sulfur species + water, and some ternary systems
containing organic sulfur species in hydrocarbons and water have been
modeled successfully with the cubic-plus-association (CPA) equation of
state Useful remarks are presented about the application of Henry's
constant values to estimate binary interaction parameters of the CPA EoS
for the description of whole vapor-liquid equilibria The results using
CPA EoS show that the cross association interactions in the methyl
mercaptan + water system and ethyl mercaptan + water system should be
considered In aqueous mixtures of higher mercaptans, the consideration
of such interactions does not improve the calculations, indicating that
they are rather weak},

Abstract = {Objectives: The aim of the present study is to assess the implant
osteo-integration, as well as the course of bone regeneration and
healing processes, thanks to the sinus lift procedure and by using PRF
(R) as a filling material, in association with the Bio-Oss (R).
Materials and Methods: 23 patients, requiring maxillary sinus lift in
order to place implants into posterior maxillary region, were involved
in this study. Selected cases, in which the height of the residual bone
was superior to 5 mm, were adopted for surgical procedure of ``one-stage
sinus lift{''} (implant insertion concurrently occured with sinus lift
resulting 6-9 months the healing and integration time). Before inserting
the implant, a small quantity of filling material was placed in the
cavity. For this purpose the bone fragment, stored in saline solution,
was employed mixed with Bio-Oss (R) and PRF (R), after being ground.
Results: All patients reported no pain to percussion, no sign of tissue
suffering in the soft peri-implant tissues, the presence of an optimal
primary stability of the inserted implants and a significant increase in
the peri-implant bone density.
Conclusions: In all cases included in this protocol, the Authors
observed a successful implant-prosthetic rehabilitation, according with
Albrektsson criteria.},

Title = {Patient's perception of recovery after osteotome-mediated sinus floor

randomized single-blinded controlled trial},

Abstract = {Background Osteotome-mediated sinus floor elevation with or without a
grafting material is associated with high implant survival, intrasinus
bone gain, and low frequency of complications. However, patient's
perception of recovery and satisfaction with the surgical intervention
are rarely reported. The objective of the present randomized controlled
trial was to assess patient's perception of recovery after
osteotome-mediated sinus floor elevation with Bio-Oss collagen compared
with no grafting material. Forty healthy patients were randomly
allocated to Bio-Oss collagen or no grafting material. Oral
health-related quality of life was assessed by Oral Health Impact
Profile-14 at enrollment. Patient's perception of recovery was assessed
by self-administrated questionnaires and visual analog scale evaluating
pain, social and working isolation, physical appearance, duration and
quality of life alterations, eating and speaking ability, diet
variations, and sleep impairment after 1 week and 1 month, respectively.
Descriptive statistics was expressed as mean percentage with standard
deviation. Correlation between impaired oral health-related quality of
life, age, gender, and recovery were assessed by T test. Level of
significance was 0.05. Results Osteotome-mediated sinus floor elevation
is associated with high patient satisfaction, limited postoperative
discomfort, and willingness to undergo similar surgery. Influence on
patient's daily life activities seems to be minimal and limited to the
first postoperative days. Most patients managed to return to work and
their routine daily activities after 0-2 days. Impaired preoperative
oral health-related quality of life, gender, or younger age seems not to
predispose for delayed recovery. However, number of days with pain,
eating difficulties, and sleep disturbances were significantly increased
with Bio-Oss collagen compared with no grafting material (P<0.05).
Conclusion Patient's discomfort seems to be minimal and limited to the
first postoperative days following osteotome-mediated sinus floor
elevation with or without a grafting material. Impaired preoperative
oral health-related quality of life, gender, or younger age seems not to
predispose for delayed recovery.},

Abstract = {OBJECTIVES: In patients with severe carotid artery stenosis, the anatomy
of their Type III aortic arch increases the difficulty and complication
rates during carotid artery stenting because of its tortuosity and sharp
angulation for cannulation as well as the unstable support of the
guidewire for shuttle sheath delivery.
METHODS: We demonstrate a novel technique to overcome these challenges,
namely the creation of stable innominate artery access by inserting a
through-and-through body floss wire from the right brachial artery to
the femoral artery.
RESULTS: We successfully performed right carotid artery stenting in 3
patients with Type III arch anatomy. All patients received regular
outpatient follow-up uneventfully for more than 1 year.
CONCLUSIONS: This facilitates the procedure of the right carotid artery
stenting in patients with Type III aortic arch.},

Abstract = {The objective of this study was to assess endo-sinus bone gain (ESBG)
following osteotome-mediated sinus floor elevation with Bio-Oss Collagen
(test) compared with no grafting material (control) using two-and
three-dimensional radiographic methods, as part of a randomized
controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04618900). Forty healthy
patients who met the necessary eligibility criteria were allocated by
block randomization to either the test group (20 patients) or control
group (20 patients). Cone beam computed tomography scans were obtained
at enrolment (T0), immediately after surgery (T1), at delivery of the
prosthetic rehabilitation (T2), and 1 year after functional implant
loading (T3). Mean differences were expressed with the 95\% confidence
interval; significance was set at P < 0.05. ESBG was significantly
increased with Bio-Oss Collagen compared with no grafting material at
T1, T2, and T3 (P < 0.001). A gradual decrease in ESBG was observed over
time with both treatment modalities (P < 0.001), which diminished the
difference between the test and control groups at T2 and T3. ESBG was
observed to be positively correlated with implant protrusion length and
negatively correlated with the residual bone height. In
osteotome-mediated sinus floor elevation, the application of Bio-Oss
Collagen underneath the elevated Schneiderian membrane improved ESBG
significantly when compared with no grafting material. However, the
increased ESBG seems not to have positively improved the treatment
outcomes in terms of the implant stability quotient or the survival of
the implants or suprastructures.},

Abstract = {This paper presents a multifunctional wearable sensing system that
integrates flexible Laser-Induced-Graphene (LIG) based sensors and an
Open-Source Analog Front-End (AFE) chip. The LIG sensors are fabricated
on polyimide (PI) Flexible Printed Circuit Board (FPCB) through CO2
infrared laser direct-write method. The LIG sensors provide repeatable
high-precision temperature sensing, humidity measurement, and strain
detection capability. The temperature sensing characterization shows the
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
Approximation Register Analog-to-Digital Converter (SAR ADC). Designed
using open-source analog flow and fabricated in GF180 OpenPDK, the AFE
chip serves as a flexible and universal readout platform, adaptable for
various sensing applications. A real-time demonstration of finger
bending detection, with readings output by the AFE Chip, is performed to
validate the system functionalities and robustness. The temperature,
humidity, strain sensing capability provide by the wearable system are
attractive for personal healthcare application. This work underscores
the integration of the LIG sensors and the AFE chip, developed using
opensource tools which facilitate an affordable prototyping for a
multifunctional flexible wearable sensing system.},

Abstract = {The aim of this study was to compare the osteogenic effects of
periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) versus bone marrow mesenchymal
stem cells (BMMSCs) in combination with Bio-Oss scaffolds on
subcutaneous and critical-size defects in the immunodeficient rat
calvarium. PDLSCs and BMMSCs were obtained from the same canine donor.
Twenty-four rats were randomly assigned to one of four experimental
groups (n=6 each): group A (no-graft negative control), group B (Bio-Oss
positive control), group C (BMMSC/Bio-Oss test group), and group D
(PDLSC/Bio-Oss test group). Eight weeks post-transplantation, ectopic
and in situ bone regeneration was evaluated by micro-computed tomography
(mu-CT), histology, histomorphometry, and immunohistochemistry. The stem
cell/Bio-Oss constructs were significantly superior to the controls in
terms of their ability to promote osteogenesis (p<0.01), while the
PDLSC/Bio-Oss construct tended to be superior to the BMMSC/Bio-Oss
construct. Thus, engineered stem cell/Bio-Oss complexes can successfully
reconstruct critical-size defects in rats, and PDLSCs and BMMSCs are
both suitable as seed cells.},

Title = {``Needle{''} hidden in silk floss: Inactivation effect and mechanism of
melamine sponge loaded bismuth oxide composite copper-metal organic

Abstract = {Photocatalytic technology showed significant potential for addressing
the issue of cyanobacterial blooms resulting from eutrophication in
bodies of water. However, the traditional powder materials were easy to
agglomerate and settle, which led to the decrease of photocatalytic
activity. The emergence of floating photocatalyst was important for the
practical application of controlling harmful algal blooms. This study
was based on the efficient powder photocatalyst bismuth oxide composite
copper-metal organic framework (Bi2O3 @Cu-MOF), which was successfully
loaded onto melamine sponge (MS) by sodium alginate immobilization to
prepare a floating photocatalyst MS/Bi2O3 @Cu-MOF for the inactivation
of Microcystis aeruginosa (M. aeruginosa) under visible light. When the
capacity was 0.4 g (CA0.4), MS/Bi2O3 @Cu-MOF showed good photocatalytic
activity, and the inactivation rate of M. aeruginosa reached 74.462\%
after 120 h. MS/Bi2O3 @Cu-MOF-CA0.4 showed a large specific surface area
of 30.490 m2/g and an average pore size of 22.862 nm, belonging to
mesoporous materials. After 120 h of treatment, the content of soluble
protein in the MS/Bi2O3 @Cu-MOF-CA0.4 treatment group decreased to 0.365
mg/L, the content of chlorophyll a (chla) was 0.023 mg/L, the content of
malondialdehyde (MDA) increased to 3.168 nmol/mgprot, and the contents
of various antioxidant enzymes experienced drastic changes, first
increasing and then decreasing. The photocatalytic process generated
center dot OH and center dot O2-, which played key role in inactivating
the algae cells. Additionally, the release of Cu2+ and adsorption of the
material also contributed to the process.},

Abstract = {Simple Summary The treatment of advanced NSCLC patients unfit for a
platinum combination is challenging and no clear evidence is available.
We retrospectively collected data on advanced NSCLC not receiving a
first-line platinum combination, focusing on clinical selection
criteria. Up to 30\% of newly diagnosed advanced EGFR/ALK negative and
PD-L1 < 50\% NSCLC patients do not receive a first-line platinum
doublet. Main clinical selection criteria were older age (>70 years),
comorbidities and poor performance status. A single agent chemotherapy
was offered with the prevalence of oral metronomic vinorelbine. In the
whole population, progression-free survival and overall survival ranged
from 4.5 to 5 months and from 9 to 10.5 months, respectively. Limited
evidence is available concerning the selection criteria and the outcomes
of platinum unfit newly diagnosed advanced NSCLC patients receiving
single-agent chemotherapy. We retrospectively collected data on
consecutive, stage IIIB-IV, EGFR/ALK negative and PD-L1 < 50\% NSCLC
patients treated with first-line single agent chemotherapy. Baseline
characteristics, outcome measures and toxicities were recorded, as well
as criteria according to which treatment selection was made and what
percentage of patients did not receive a first-line platinum-based
chemotherapy. Two-hundred and twenty-one patients were included. Median
age was 79 (range 56-92) years, M/F 165(74.6\%)/56(25.4\%), ECOG
performance status (PS) 0/1/ >= 2 23(10.9\%)/94(42.5\%)/103(46.6\%),
with a median of two serious comorbidities. A median of 25\% (range
10\%-30\%) of newly diagnosed NSCLC did not receive a first-line
platinum combination. Clinical criteria according to which decision was
made were older age (76.5\%), comorbidities (72\%), poor PS (55.2\%) and
familiar or social issues (10\%). Single-agent treatment consisted of
oral metronomic vinorelbine (MetV 78.6\%), gemcitabine (Gem 10\%), oral
standard vinorelbine (Vin 8.2\%) and other (O 3.2\%). Median
progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of single
agent treatments ranged from 4.5 to 5 months and from 9 to 10.5 months,
respectively. All grade toxicities did not differ among single agents,
while grade 3-4 toxicities were less frequent with MetV. Up to 30\% of
newly diagnosed advanced EGFR/ALK negative and PD-L1 < 50\% NSCLC
patients do not receive a first-line platinum doublet. Main clinical
selection criteria were older age (>70 years), comorbidities and poor
PS. An oral treatment was frequently proposed with MetV being the most
frequent choice according to its safety profile.},

Abstract = {Xenografts have been used extensively, either alone or in combination
with autogenous bone, in sinus floor elevation techniques. However,
controversy exists regarding the need to cover the lateral osteotomy
site with a membrane. Also, the healing period before loading remains
undefined when machined-surface implants are placed. Twenty-nine
patients showing reduced bone volume in the posterior maxilla had 61
Branemark System implants placed in 30 sinuses augmented with a lateral
osteotomy approach. Sinuses grafted with Bio-Oss and covered with a
collagen membrane Bio-Gide (M+) received 29 implants, while grafted but
uncovered sites (M-) received 32 implants. An immediate procedure was
followed to place 41 implants and a staged procedure was used for 20
implants, Abutment connection was made in 2 distinct postoperative
periods: 6 to 9 months and over 9 months. The patients were followed for
an average of 22.4 months. The survival rate of the implants was
dependent on the postoperative healing time and membrane presence. In
case of the immediate procedure and in M- sites, when residual bone
height was less than 5 mm, more failures occurred when the loading was
done at 6 to 9 months than after 9 months. No failures occurred in the
M- series when a staged approach was followed. The overall survival rate
was 78.1\% for the M- sites and 93.1\% for the M+ sites. No failures
occurred (0/35) in the control implants placed in adjacent native bone.
Implant survival rate was related to the quality of the reconstructed
cortical plate and to implant length. The concomitant use of a collagen
barrier to cover the osteotomy site, when machined-surface implants were
used in sinus grafting, seemed to improve the quality of the graft
healing and survival rate of the implants loaded between 6 and 9 months
after placement.},

Abstract = {Recently, tissue engineering has become available as a regenerative
treatment for bone defects. However, the evaluation of its success is
limited to histological analysis, and its effects on mechanical hardness
remain to be investigated. This study investigated mechanical strength
in support of histological findings, specifically for tissue-engineered
bone with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and platelet-rich-plasma (PRP).
Initially, teeth were extracted, and bone defects on both sides of the
mandible were prepared with a trephine bar. The defects were implanted
by using the following graft materials: 1) PRP, 2) PRP and dog MSCs
(dMSCs), 3) autogenous bone (PCBM), 4) bone substitute (Bio-Oss (R)),
and 5) control (defects only). After 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks of
implantation, the defects were histologically assessed to examine their
mechanical properties. According to histological observations, the
dMSCs/PRP groups had well-formed mature bone compared with the control
(defects only), Bio-Oss (R), and PRP groups. The Vickers hardness test
values were 8 (control), 9 (PRP), not detected (Bio-Oss (R)), 11 (PCBM),
and 17 (dMSCs/PRP) after 2 weeks. Therefore, tissue-engineered bone can
be used for early stage bone regeneration from the viewpoint of
histology and mechanical properties. (c) 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.},
