The Ground Is Shifting: A Reflection on the Foundations of Software Measurement
Thomas Bock, Audris Mockus, Bogdan Vasilescu
For most of the past six decades, software measurement relied on labor-intensive manual collection of proprietary data, which hampered progress. The shift to repurposing traces fro…
Deforking the World of Code: A Project-Provenance Map that Recovers Cross-Forge Fork Families that Platform Graphs Cannot See
Audris Mockus
The paper presents a curated deforking map for the World of Code that groups raw git repositories into their original projects using shared-commit relationships and clustering, imp…
Scaling Author Identity Disambiguation to the World of Code: A Methodology
Audris Mockus
We describe the methodology used to alias the free-text author/committer identities of the entire World of Code (WoC) collection (version V2604, ~107M distinct author strings over…
Claimed or Attested? A Commit-Signature Dataset and Identity Trust Tiers across the World of Code
Audris Mockus
An author string in a git commit is free text the committer typed, so identity resolution over a global commit corpus rests on a claim that nothing in the commit verifies. A crypto…
A Global Author-Identity Map for the World of Code:62.7M Developer Identities from 106.8M Author Strings over 5.87B Commits
Audris Mockus
Mining software repositories at global scale founders on author identity: the same developer commits under many name/email strings, and the same string is reused by many developers…
The Reciprocal Impact of Science and Software: A Cross-Corpus Analysis of How Research Shapes Software and Software Enables Research
Audris Mockus
Software and scientific knowledge co-evolve, yet they are catalogued in separate corpora that rarely speak to one another. We bridge them at global scale by linking World of Code (…
