Mining developer communication data streams
Andy M. Connor, Jacqui Finlay, Russel Pears
This paper explores the concepts of modelling a software development project as a process that results in the creation of a continuous stream of data. In terms of the Jazz reposito…
An automatic architecture reconstruction and refactoring framework
Frederik Schmidt, Stephen G. MacDonell, Andy M. Connor
A variety of sources have noted that a substantial proportion of non trivial software systems fail due to unhindered architectural erosion. This design deterioration leads to low m…
Requirements engineering current practice and capability in small and medium software development enterprises in New Zealand
Alison Talbot, Andy M. Connor
This paper presents research on current industry practices with respect to requirements engineering as implemented within software development companies in New Zealand. A survey in…
Bridging the Research-Practice Gap in Requirements Engineering through Effective Teaching and Peer Learning
Andrew M. Connor, Jim Buchan, Krassie Petrova
In this paper, we introduce the concept of the research practice gap as it is perceived in the field of software requirements engineering. An analysis of this gap has shown that tw…
Mining Software Metrics from Jazz
Jacqui Finlay, Andy M. Connor, Russel Pears
In this paper, we describe the extraction of source code metrics from the Jazz repository and the application of data mining techniques to identify the most useful of those metrics…
Synthetic Minority Over-sampling TEchnique(SMOTE) for Predicting Software Build Outcomes
Russel Pears, Jacqui Finlay, Andy M. Connor
In this research we use a data stream approach to mining data and construct Decision Tree models that predict software build outcomes in terms of software metrics that are derived…
