The compiler neither knows nor cares about such things as a program's internal structure, the relationships between its components and their specifications, the way design patterns are instantiated, the best way to explain its algorithms or how it is intended to be used. People do. Literate programming (LP) was invented by Donald Knuth as a way to address such problems. The idea is appealing but LP has not been adopted widely: the lack of good tools, difficulties with object-oriented languages and the limitations of a single psychological order are among the reasons. We report the development of theme-based literate programming (TBLP). Themes are extremely flexible: they may be aimed at particular reader groups or represent aspects of the program. Features of TBLP include an extended chunk model which accommodates a richer variety of types, an extended connection model which allows chunks to be threaded together into multiple themes, an enhanced processing model which generalises tangling and weaving and a chunk-level version management system. XML is used to represent the web structure and XML-based technologies such as XSLT are used in processing. This provides flexibility and extensibility, allowing users to define new chunk types. An application which implements TBLP is presented and the integration of TBLP with software engineering processes is discussed.","PeriodicalId":132364,"journal":{"name":"Ninth Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference, 2002.","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130527496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been also widely assumed that the object-oriented programming technique is more powerful than the conventional procedural programming technique and object-based languages provide abstraction far better than procedural languages. However, in reality little or no empirical evidence has been given to support these assumptions. Therefore, there is a desperate need for a quantitative-based comparative evaluation of merits of object-oriented versus conventional procedural program design methods and languages. This paper reports on a pioneer work in this direction. The paper describes the results of the application of well-established software metrics on data-collection through controlled experimentation, where forty subjects developed program samples in Java and C languages for the solution of the same set of problems via object-oriented and procedural structured program design methods respectively. Three important aspects of program quality known as program difficulty, effort to comprehend implementation of the algorithm and level of languages have been measured from Java and C programs using well established and recognized software science metrics.","PeriodicalId":132364,"journal":{"name":"Ninth Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference, 2002.","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130574995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes a recommendation system based on a collaborative filtering approach to let users discover useful functions at low cost for the purpose of improving productivity when using application software. The proposed system automatically collects histories of software function execution (usage histories) from many users through the Internet. Based on the collaborative filtering approach, collected histories are used for recommending a set of candidate functions that may be useful to the individual user. This paper illustrates conventional filtering algorithms and proposes a new algorithm suitable for recommendation of software functions. The result of an experiment with a prototype recommendation system showed that the average ndpm of our algorithm was smaller than that of conventional algorithms, and it also showed that the standard deviation of ndpm of our algorithm was smaller than that of conventional algorithms. Furthermore, while every conventional algorithm had a case whose recommendation was worse than the random algorithm, our algorithm did not.","PeriodicalId":132364,"journal":{"name":"Ninth Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference, 2002.","volume":"156 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115583655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is a famous sentence in \"Mythical man-month\" written by Brooks (1975). The managers also recognize that even if two man-month workloads are assigned to two developers, the development period is not one month. However, the managers want to see when the two developers finish the two man-months workload. Of course, the managers don't think that the development period reduces from two months to one month. If the development period in the two developers is shorter than two months, the managers will decide to add the new developer to the work. Therefore, we propose a new workload estimation model based on communications among shared works. The model includes the Concept Model of UML of a software development project. The classes and relationships in the Concept Model present the kinds of works and relationships among the works, respectively. Sharing works causes increments of communication workload. The communication workload is derived from the relationships among the classes in the Concept Model. In case studies using the model, we were able to reconfirm quantitatively the famous sentence of \"Mythical man-month\".","PeriodicalId":132364,"journal":{"name":"Ninth Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference, 2002.","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116330211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During these projects, students in Pittsburgh and Munich, Germany collaborated in the development of a single system. Our experiences showed that software development is communication intensive and requires the collaboration of many stakeholders. Communication is challenging in distributed contexts: participants do not all know each other and work at different times and locations; the number of participants and their organization change during the project; and participants belong to different communities. Hence, to deal with the global marketplace, it is critical to provide students with distributed collaboration skills. To improve the teaching of collaboration in software engineering, we propose iBistro, an augmented, distributed, and ubiquitous communication space. iBistro aims to overcome problems resulting from miscommunications and information loss in informal or casual meetings. iBistro enables distributed groups to collaborate and cooperate in software projects and therefore provides an environment for learning in diverse aspects such as project management, programming skills, and social skills. With the addition of techniques from artificial intelligence, such as student modeling, and intelligent support mechanisms, such as computer supported group formation, distributed tutoring becomes feasible.","PeriodicalId":132364,"journal":{"name":"Ninth Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference, 2002.","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127136508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
