Applications, for example, use the Google Places API to learn about nearby establishments, use the Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook API to connect users with friends and family, or use the Stripe API to accept end-user payments. Increasingly, applications themselves consist of micro-services that expose their capabilities to one another using web APIs. In comparison to library APIs, which are a common subject of software engineering research, web APIs present unique challenges - both for providers and consumers - that are arguably much less explored yet. In this talk, we outline the characteristics of web APIs causing these challenges. We discuss relevant design points, both for providers and consumers, and how these design points have been implemented by different web API paradigms in recent years. Throughout the talk, we give examples of our research to address web API-related challenges. Our goal is to inspire WAPI attendees to take on some of the many research opportunities surrounding web APIs.","PeriodicalId":164468,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 2nd International Workshop on API Usage and Evolution (WAPI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131459267","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}

At a large enough scale, or with enough disconnect between dependencies, sustainability comes from application of both technical and non-technical approaches. On the technical side, I advocate for restraint among API providers on making arbitrary changes, and use of non-atomic refactoring techniques when more invasive changes are required; such techniques are employed in many Google projects, and in programming languages like Go and C++, to allow more flexible changes to language standards over time. On the non-technical side, I argue for a clear separation of responsibilities (providers need to do the bulk of the work for the update), as well as a growing need to document acceptable usage of an API, be it a library or programming language. In many languages, there are very few changes to an API that are provably safe without this idea: just because a user’s code currently works does not mean that it is supported and can be expected to continue to work indefinitely under maintenance. Taken together, these two approaches form what I believe to be a minimum set of requirements when approaching software sustainability.","PeriodicalId":164468,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 2nd International Workshop on API Usage and Evolution (WAPI)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131409527","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}

Dynamic specification mining techniques attempt to fill gaps in missing or decaying documentation, but current miners are blind to relations established dynamically. Because they cannot recover properties involving these dynamic structures, they may produce incomplete or misleading specifications. We have devised an extension to current dynamic specification mining techniques that ameliorates this shortcoming. The key insight is to monitor not only values dynamically, but also properties to track dynamic data structures that establish new relations between client and service provider. We have implemented this approach as an extension to the instrumentation component of Daikon, the leading example of dynamic invariant mining in the research literature. We evaluated our tool by applying it to selected modules of widely used software systems published on GitHub.","PeriodicalId":164468,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 2nd International Workshop on API Usage and Evolution (WAPI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117130841","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}

Nevertheless, their use reinforces system dependency on third-party software. When libraries become obsolete or their APIs change, performing the necessary modifications to dependent systems, can be time-consuming, labour intensive and error-prone. In this paper, we propose a methodology that reduces the effort developers must spend to mitigate library obsolescence. We describe the steps comprising the methodology, i.e., source code analysis, visualisation of hot areas, code-based transformation, and verification of the modified system. Also, we present some preliminary results and describe our plan for developing a fully automated software modernisation approach.","PeriodicalId":164468,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 2nd International Workshop on API Usage and Evolution (WAPI)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126859575","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}

For developers, it is often not obvious from where a particular piece of information can be retrieved. To understand this documentation landscape, we systematically conducted Google searches for the elements of ten popular APIs. We found that their documentation is widely dispersed among many sources, that GitHub and Stack Overflow play a prominent role among the search results, and that most sources are quick to document new API functionalities. These findings inform API vendors about where developers find documentation about their products, they inform developers about places to look for documentation, and they enable researchers to further study the software documentation landscape.","PeriodicalId":164468,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 2nd International Workshop on API Usage and Evolution (WAPI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130413778","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}
