Software Must Move! A Description of the Software Assembly Line

Martin J. McGowan, William L. Anderson

发表信息：: Proceedings of the IEEE SOFTFAIR -- A CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT TOOLS, TECHNIQUES, and ALTERNATIVES, 1983

英文摘要：

This paper describes a set of tools for automating and controlling the development and maintenance of software systems. The mental model is a software assembly line. Program design and construction take place at individual programmer workstations. Integration of individual software components takes place at subsequent stations on the assembly line. Software is moved automatically along the assembly line toward final packaging. Software under construction or maintenance is divided into packages. Each package of software is composed of a recipe and ingredients. Some new terms are introduced to describe the ingredients. The recipe specifies how ingredients are transformed into products. The benefits of the Software Assembly Line for development, maintenance, and management of large-scale computer systems are explained.

Simplifying Complex Software Assembly: The Component Retrieval Language and Implementation

Assembling simulation software along with the associated tools and utilities is a challenging endeavor, particularly when the components are distributed across multiple source code versioning systems. It is problematic for researchers compiling and running the software across many different supercomputers, as well as for novices in a field who are often presented with a bewildering list of software to collect and install. In this paper, we describe a language (CRL) for specifying software components with the details needed to obtain them from source code repositories. The language supports pub…

State-Based Behavior Modeling in Software and Systems Engineering

The design of complex man-made systems mostly involves a conceptual modeling phase; therefore, it is important to ensure an appropriate analysis method for these models. A key concept for such analysis is the development of a diagramming technique (e.g., UML) because diagrams can describe entities and processes and emphasize important aspects of the systems being described. The analysis also includes an examination of ontological concepts such as states and events, which are used as a basis for the modeling process. Studying fundamental concepts allows us to understand more deeply the relation…

AutoMATES: Automated Model Assembly from Text, Equations, and Software

University of Arizona（亚利桑那大学）；School of Information, University of Arizona（亚利桑那大学信息学院）；Department of Computer Science, University of Arizona（亚利桑那大学计算机科学系）

Models of complicated systems can be represented in different ways - in scientific papers, they are represented using natural language text as well as equations. But to be of real use, they must also be implemented as software, thus making code a third form of representing models. We introduce the AutoMATES project, which aims to build semantically-rich unified representations of models from scientific code and publications to facilitate the integration of computational models from different domains and allow for modeling large, complicated systems that span multiple domains and levels of abst…

Exploring the Impact of Socio-Technical Core-Periphery Structures in Open Source Software Development

In this paper we apply the social network concept of core-periphery structure to the sociotechnical 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, w…

FLOSS != GitHub: A Case Study of Linux/BSD Perceptions from Microsoft's Acquisition of GitHub

In 2018, the software industry giants Microsoft made a move into the Open Source world by completing the acquisition of mega Open Source platform, GitHub. This acquisition was not without controversy, as it is well-known that the free software communities includes not only the ability to use software freely, but also the libre nature in Open Source Software. In this study, our aim is to explore these perceptions in FLOSS developers. We conducted a survey that covered traditional FLOSS source Linux, and BSD communities and received 246 developer responses. The results of the survey confirm that…

Framework for Version Control & Dependency Link of Components & Products in a Software Product Line

Software product line deals with the assembly of products from existing core assets commonly known as components and continuous growth in the core assets as we proceed with production. This idea has emerged as vital in terms of software development from component-based architecture. Since in software product line one has to deal with number of products and components simultaneous therefore there is a need to develop a strategy, which will help to store components and products information in such a way that they can be traced easily for further development. This storage strategy should reflect …

A Survey of Software Foundations in Open Source

A number of software foundations have been created as legal instruments to better articulate the structure, collaboration and financial model of Open Source Software (OSS) projects. Some examples are the Apache, Linux, or Mozilla foundations. However, the mission and support provided by these foundations largely differ among them. In this paper we perform a study on the role of foundations in OSS development. We analyze the nature, activities, role and governance of 101 software foundations and then go deeper on the 27 having as concrete goal the development and evolution of specific open sour…

Contrasting to spark creativity in software development teams

Three decades of empirical research in high-performing software development teams provides evidence that creativity can be promoted by an effective, disciplined development culture. This paper describes 'contrasting' as a key driver for creativity; describes creativity moves, tactics used by high-performing teams to produce useful contrasts; and characterizes key development behaviours observed to support a 'culture' of creativity. The empirical research was carried out in a broad range of software development organizations and application domains.

Using Modularity Metrics to assist Move Method Refactoring of Large System

For large software systems, refactoring activities can be a challenging task, since for keeping component complexity under control the overall architecture as well as many details of each component have to be considered. Product metrics are therefore often used to quantify several parameters related to the modularity of a software system. This paper devises an approach for automatically suggesting refactoring opportunities on large software systems. We show that by assessing metrics for all components, move methods refactoring an be suggested in such a way to improve modularity of several comp…

A Framework for Process Assessment of Software Product Line

Software product line has emerged as an attractive phenomenon within organizations dealing with software development process. It involves assembly of products from existing core assets, commonly known as components, and continuous growth in the core assets as production proceeds. Organizations trying to incorporate the concept of software product line to reduce development time and cost require certain rules to be followed for successful development and management, they also require a direct procedure to evaluate the current maturity level of the process. In this work certain rules for develop…

Toward Imitating Visual Attention of Experts in Software Development Tasks

Nara Institute of Science and Technology（奈良先端科学技术大学院大学）

Expert programmers' eye-movements during source code reading are valuable sources that are considered to be associated with their domain expertise. We advocate a vision of new intelligent systems incorporating expertise of experts for software development tasks, such as issue localization, comment generation, and code generation. We present a conceptual framework of neural autonomous agents based on imitation learning (IL), which enables agents to mimic the visual attention of an expert via his/her eye movement. In this framework, an autonomous agent is constructed as a context-based attention…
