It is being used globally in personal, public, private and government organizations. Device and application availability, often overlooked in research, is a huge component to globally maintaining healthy applications and personal communications. Published research into Android application availability threats and vulnerabilities is limited and incomplete. At most, published research on static analysis techniques used to prevent and thwart Android availability denial of service has been discussed as an aside in only a few papers. To fill the research gap in understanding, this paper examines Android device denial of service techniques both at a system level and at an application level. Our research quantitatively examines applications' availability risks. These risks are used to develop Android mitigation techniques for application denial of service scenarios and inform the development of our third contribution produced from this research. In our third contribution, we introduce a novel open source Android application, the App-Nanny, as a watchdog application to help ensure that applications are playing fair on the device. Lastly, we give insights into future mobile availability testing which includes developing a ChaosMonkeyApp helping to ensure hardening and resiliency in both devices and their running applications.","PeriodicalId":303527,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 28th Annual Software Technology Conference (STC)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131884017","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 focus of our work is to reduce this gap for service-oriented projects. We proposed an approach which considers both technical strategies and agile methods, trying to streamline the progression from design to implementation at a relatively early phase, and then throughout the whole development lifecycle. Automatic code generation has the potential to reduce above problems to a certain extent. This paper describes our efforts to enable rapid and continuous delivery while leveraging parallelism in development via automatic code generation — specifically making domain models instantly executable. We describe a code generator that has been built to enable parallel development of services. It uses UML class diagram to model the problem domain, then rapidly realize the domain model as a set of NoSQL database collections, automate the generation of common database access functions, and automate the wrapping of these database functions within a set of RESTful APIs. We also consider several common deployment scenarios (e.g. requirements for media-handling, security, scalability) to ensure the flexibility and reusability of the target source code for subsequent development iterations. Several empirical project instances have been built using this code generation technique. Combine with agile methods, we attempt to shorten development schedule in both design and implementation stages, and to eliminate the risks caused by evolutionary development. The result shows a great saving of effort on development and less issues in implementation stage.","PeriodicalId":303527,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 28th Annual Software Technology Conference (STC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129034595","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}

They highly depend on volunteer developers contributions for their existence and continuity; attracting new volunteer developers is crucial for the OSS community sustainability. However, new developers might be hesitant to join and participate to a project due to many obstacles such as lack of awareness and guidelines in the OSS community and inability for long-term commitment and dedication which might result in a low retention rate. In the OSS community, contributors come from different backgrounds and skill levels, and they have different levels of participation in the system. They can be categorized into core and peripheral based on the frequency of the commits they author. While it is acknowledged that developers have different levels of participation to a software system, little is known about how different degrees of contribution impact the OSS system. In this study, we explore whether core and peripheral developers contributions to the OSS systems vary in terms of type and quality by analyzing a total of 19,580 commits from 38 Apache Java software systems to better understand how different levels of developers involvement within a software system relate to the type and quality of the their contributions.","PeriodicalId":303527,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 28th Annual Software Technology Conference (STC)","volume":"32 10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116360174","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 is often done with a UML use case model that formalizes the interactions between actors and a system in the requirements elicitation iteration, and with architectural alternatives explored and user interface details specified in the following analysis and design iteration. On the other hand, to better support decision making in software management, effort estimation models are required to provide estimates about the required project effort at the very early stage of a project, which, however, provides little information for accurately evaluating system complexity. To solve this dilemma, an incremental approach of integrating information available throughout the early iterations to provide multiple effort estimations is preferred in keeping the balance between utility and accuracy. In this paper, we proposed an effort estimation model that incorporates two sub-models to provide two points of effort estimation during the early iterations of a use case driven project. Our proposed model is lightweight due to the fact that its size metrics are defined to be countable directly from the artifacts of the early iterations. To better calibrate the model, especially in considering the situation of having limited data points available, we also introduced a normalization framework in our model calibration process to reduce noise from the effort data. By calibrating the proposed sub-models with the data points collected from 4 historical projects, we demonstrated that the sub-models fit the data set well, and the later-phase model is superior to the early-phase model for it fits the data set better and shows less uncertainty in the calibrated parameters.","PeriodicalId":303527,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 28th Annual Software Technology Conference (STC)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115758108","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}
