AI 中文摘要
在学术界、行业和开源社区的推动下,量子软件生态系统迅速发展。新的概念常常伴随着科学出版物中的软件工件以及大型社区的持续发展而出现。然而,许多存储库仅在有限时间内获得开发投入,这引发了其概念能否在单个存储库之外持续存在的问题。本文运用成熟的实证软件工程技术分析了一组基础量子软件存储库,结合跨存储库活动与贡献者关系来研究社区的演变。分析提供了贡献者迁移模式的实证证据和跨项目知识转移的迹象。观察到多种发展路径:项目可能演变为持续的社区,贡献者可能将概念整合到现有生态系统中,或者活动可能通过新的和后续的软件工件继续。这些观察为量子软件生态系统中概念和影响如何跨越存储库边界持续存在提供了初步的实证视角。
英文摘要
Driven by contributions from academia, industry, and open-source communities, the quantum software ecosystem is rapidly growing. Across this ecosystem, new concepts often emerge through software artefacts accompanying scientific publications as well as through sustained development in larger communities. However, many repositories receive development efforts only over a limited period of time, raising the question whether their concepts persist beyond individual repositories. In this paper, we apply established empirical software engineering techniques to analyse a set of foundational quantum software repositories. We combine cross-repository activity with contributor relationships to study the evolution of communities. Our analysis provides empirical evidence of contributor migration patterns and indications of cross-project knowledge transfer. We observe multiple development paths: projects may evolve into sustained communities, contributors may integrate concepts into established ecosystems, or activity may continue through new and follow-up software artefacts. Our observations provide an initial empirical perspective on how concepts and influence persist across repository boundaries in quantum software ecosystems.
