Automatically Categorizing Software Technologies

Abstract

The lack of informal language and software technology standard taxonomy makes it impossible to analyze technology trends on forums and other online sites. Researchers have done an in-depth study of the seven top-notch technology tools and proposed a better automated method to classify software technologies. e.g., Witt uses phrases that describe software tech or concept and put back a wide-ranging class that defines it (i. e., IDE). Furthermore, it defines its function (commercial, PHP). By extension, this method can dynamically compile the list using all technologies of a given type. In a same way working of WordNet, WebIsADb, WiBiTaxonomy, and few other tools is also studied by the researchers. Eventually, they compared these classification methodologies and establish that Witt, once used in software jargon, showed healthier results as compared to all other explanations assessed, lacking a conforming diminution in untrue alarm rates.
