This feature introduces significant challenges to testing processes conducted in these environments. Based on existing technology, a test case that fails frequently is likely to fail in future tests. Therefore, the historical execution results of test cases are essential to guide the test case prioritization (TCP) in the CI environment. Reinforcement learning involves solving sequential decision-making problems and is suitable for TCP in the CI environment. At present, most of the TCP techniques based on reinforcement learning rely on the current cycle historical failure information of test cases. They rarely consider more historical cycle information, as well as other influencing factors. In this paper, we discussed the occurrence frequency of test cases for the first time. We also considered all historical information of each test case and proposed three new reward function, which employs the percentage of historical failure and the failure distribution of test cases, which can guide the reinforcement learning process. We evaluate our method on five industrial data sets. The experimental results show that our method can effectively prioritize test cases and improve the cost-effectiveness of the CI process.","PeriodicalId":299473,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Software and System Processes (ICSSP)","volume":"116 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124214842","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}

When applying model-based engineering approaches, no longer are only textual requirements specifications or software code under review, but also model-based specification artifacts like behavioral requirements models. As such behavioral specifications are typically documented on a type-level, errors concerning the interactions between multiple system instances can go unnoticed in manual reviews. This is particularly the case when multiple system instances of the same system type are interacting during runtime, which is typical for cyber-physical systems where networks of cyber-physical systems form dynamically to fulfill an overall purpose. In this paper, we report on a controlled experiment whose results indicate that instance-level review diagrams have – compared to type-level diagrams – important positive effects on reviewing processes for behavioral specifications of cyber-physical systems. Specifically, the experiment provides empirical evidence that instance-level review diagrams are significantly more expressive and effective than type-level diagrams.","PeriodicalId":299473,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Software and System Processes (ICSSP)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125935206","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}

However, software companies often also want the ability of long-term planning, promised by traditional or plan-based methods. To benefit from the strengths of both approaches, software companies often use a combination of agile and plan-based methods, known as hybrid development approaches. These approaches strongly depend on the individual context and are customized. Therefore, companies have to organize their hybrid development approach individually. However, practitioners often have difficulties with the organization of hybrid approaches. The organization considers how the phases, activities, roles, and artifacts are arranged and connected. Research lacks the necessary detailed insight into how hybrid development approaches are organized to support practitioners. To gain better understanding of the organization of hybrid approaches, we conducted a systematic literature review to gather descriptions of hybrid approaches. We analyzed the found papers thoroughly and could identify three general patterns of how hybrid approaches are organized. We found that all these patterns are still based on Royce’s waterfall model and use the standard software engineering activities. Our findings shall help to lead further research and help practitioners to better organize their individual development approach.","PeriodicalId":299473,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Software and System Processes (ICSSP)","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121638208","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 helps to understand customer behavior and enables the usage and deployment of new technologies based on machine learning. However, the process from collecting the data, to clean and process it to be used by data scientists and applications is often manual, non-optimized and error-prone. This increases the time that the data takes to deliver value for the business. To reduce this time companies are looking into automation and validation of the data processes. Data processes are the operational side of data analytic workflow.DataOps, a recently coined term by data scientists, data analysts and data engineers refer to a general process aimed to shorten the end-to-end data analytic life-cycle time by introducing automation in the data collection, validation, and verification process. Despite its increasing popularity among practitioners, research on this topic has been limited and does not provide a clear definition for the term or how a data analytic process evolves from ad-hoc data collection to fully automated data analytics as envisioned by DataOps.This research provides three main contributions. First, utilizing multi-vocal literature we provide a definition and a scope for the general process referred to as DataOps. Second, based on a case study with a large mobile telecommunication organization, we analyze how multiple data analytic teams evolve their infrastructure and processes towards DataOps. Also, we provide a stairway showing the different stages of the evolution process. With this evolution model, companies can identify the stage which they belong to and also, can try to move to the next stage by overcoming the challenges they encounter in the current stage.","PeriodicalId":299473,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Software and System Processes (ICSSP)","volume":"331 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133464545","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}

The approach was tested in an operational environment jointly with the danish municipality of Syddjurs by conducting a service-design project and implementing an open source case manager tool and a new highlighter tool for mapping between textual specifications and the DCR notation. The design method and technologies were evaluated by understandability studies with end-users.

Projects often take much longer to complete than planned and miscommunications among engineers are common. Yet, the process for exploring the project-specific or organization-specific root causes why this happens is still poorly supported. Investigations are cumbersome and require significant effort. In the context of this industrial case study, our industry partner was interested in measuring and assessing how the organization structure and issue handling processes ultimately affected software quality and time. Reducing the effort of such investigations/retrospectives and speeding up fact finding is important as it allows for more frequent, informed engineering process improvements and feedback to managers, team leads, and engineers. This paper describes our approach of pairing process metrics with visual historical inspection of issues. Stakeholders such as managers, team leads, or quality assurance engineers inspect metrics (and deviations from expected values) for individual issues and utilize a historical visualization of the affected (and related) issues to obtain insights into the reason for the metric (deviation) and its root cause. We demonstrate the usefulness of our approach based on our ProcessInspector prototype providing access to data on four real industry projects and a qualitative evaluation with team leads and group leads from our industry partner.","PeriodicalId":299473,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Software and System Processes (ICSSP)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124738434","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}

While this adoption may improve lead-times, such companies need to balance two trade-offs: (i) the need to have a uniform, consistent development method on system level with the need for specialised methods for teams in different disciplines (e.g., hardware, software, mechanics, sales, support); (ii) the need for comprehensive documentation on system level with the need to have lightweight documentation enabling iterative and agile work. With specialised methods for teams, isolated teams work within larger ecosystems of plan-driven culture, i.e., teams become agile “islands”. At the boundaries, these teams share knowledge which needs to be managed well for a correct system to be developed. While it is useful to support diverse and specialised methods, it is important to understand which islands are repeatedly encountered, the reasons or factors triggering their existence, and how best to handle coordination between them. Based on a multiple case study, this work presents a catalogue of islands and the boundary objects between them. We believe this work will be beneficial to practitioners aiming to understand their ecosystems and researchers addressing communication and coordination challenges in large-scale development.","PeriodicalId":299473,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Software and System Processes (ICSSP)","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121725241","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}
