Abstract

The social community in open source software developers has a complex network structure. The network structure represents the relations between the project and the engineer in the software developer's community. A project forms some teams which consist of engineers categorized into some task group. Source Forge is well known to be one of open source websites. The node and arc in the network structure means the engineer and their connection among engineers in the Source Forge. In the previous study, we found the growing process of project becomes strong according to the number of developers joining into the project. In the growing phase, we found some characteristic patterns between the number of agents and the produced projects. By such observations, we developed a simulation model of performing the growing process of project. In this paper, we introduced the altruism behavior as shown in the Army Ant model into the software developer's simulation model. The efficiency of the software developing process was investigated by some experimental simulation results.

基于网络的开源软件社区社区成长模型分析

开源软件开发者社区具有复杂的网络结构。网络结构代表了软件开发人员社区中项目和工程师之间的关系。一个项目由一些团队组成，这些团队由工程师组成，这些工程师被划分为一些任务组。Source Forge是一个众所周知的开源网站。网络结构中的节点和弧线表示Source Forge中工程师及其与工程师之间的联系。在之前的研究中，我们发现项目的成长过程随着开发商加入项目的数量而变得越来越强。在成长阶段，我们发现代理商数量与生产项目之间存在一些特征模式。通过这样的观察，我们开发了一个执行项目成长过程的模拟模型。本文将陆军蚂蚁模型中的利他行为引入到软件开发者的仿真模型中。通过一些实验仿真结果验证了软件开发过程的有效性。
