To alleviate this problem, different awareness tools have been proposed to alert developers about potential conflicts before they become too complex. However, there is not much empirical evidence supporting the strategies used by these tools. Learning about what types of changes most likely lead to conflicts might help to derive more appropriate requirements for early conflict detection, and suggest improvements to existing conflict detection tools. To bring such evidence, in this paper we analyze the effectiveness of two types of code changes as conflict predictors. Namely, editions to the same method, and editions to directly dependent methods. We conduct an empirical study analyzing part of the development history of 45 Java projects from GitHub and Travis CI, including 5,647 merge scenarios, to compute the precision and recall for the conflict predictors aforementioned. Our results indicate that the predictors combined have a precision of 57.99% and a recall of 82.67%. Moreover, we conduct a manual analysis which provides insights about strategies that could further increase the precision and the recall.","PeriodicalId":6639,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 15th International Conference on Mining Software Repositories (MSR)","volume":"85 1","pages":"576-586"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84340739","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}

IS enables and requires developers to collaborate more than traditional SD methods such as plan-driven or agile development. To better understand IS, researchers and practitioners need to measure IS collaboration. However, there is no method yet for doing so. In this paper, we present a method for measuring IS collaboration by measuring the patch-flow within an organization. Patch-flow is the flow of code contributions across organizational boundaries such as project, organizational unit, or profit center boundaries. We evaluate our patch-flow measurement method using case study research with a software developing multi-industry company. By applying the method in the case organization, we evaluate its relevance and viability and discuss its usefulness. We found that about half (47.9%) of all code contributions constitute patch-flow between organizational units, almost all (42.2%) being between organizational units working on different products. Such significant patch-flow indicates high relevance of the patch-flow phenomenon and hence the method presented in this paper. Our patch-flow measurement method is the first of its kind to measure and quantify IS collaboration. It can serve as a base for further quantitative analyses of IS collaboration.","PeriodicalId":6639,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 15th International Conference on Mining Software Repositories (MSR)","volume":"67 1","pages":"515-525"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86336339","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 purpose of such comments is to keep track of TD and appropriately address it when possible. Building on a previous quantitative investigation by Maldonado et al. on the removal of self-admitted technical debt (SATD), in this paper we perform an in-depth quantitative and qualitative study of how SATD is addressed in five Java open source projects. On the one hand, we look at whether SATD is \"accidentally\" removed, and the extent to which the SATD removal is being documented. We found that that (i) between 20% and 50% of SATD comments are accidentally removed while entire classes or methods are dropped, (ii) 8% of the SATD removal is acknowledged in commit messages, and (iii) while most of the changes addressing SATD require complex source code changes, very often SATD is addressed by specific changes to method calls or conditionals. Our results can be used to better plan TD management or learn patterns for addressing certain kinds of TD and provide recommendations to developers.","PeriodicalId":6639,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 15th International Conference on Mining Software Repositories (MSR)","volume":"102 1","pages":"526-536"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80634154","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}

Most of these approaches focus on functional and procedural dependencies in the system. Although highly relevant at the design phase, these static dependencies alone do not account for how a software product evolves over time. Instead, this is also dictated by logical and hidden dependencies between system files. To a large extent, the co-change (co-commit) relation captures these different types of dependencies. In this paper, we define two measures of co-change-modularity of a software product based on a weighted design structure matrix (DSM). The first metric, called the weighted propagation cost, uses matrix exponential to measure how changes to one system file potentially affect the whole product. The second metric, called the weighted clustering cost, uses the output of the first metric to measure the partitionability of the system based on the co-change relation. In addition, we provide a visual representation of how the co-change structure of a system evolves over time. We discuss the theoretical foundation of our work and highlight its advantages over existing methodologies. We apply our approach to GNU Octave and show the findings to be consistent with the available literature on the evolution of Octave. Our analysis is extensible and applicable to a range of scenarios including open source systems.","PeriodicalId":6639,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 15th International Conference on Mining Software Repositories (MSR)","volume":"3 1","pages":"331-335"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88648957","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}

An automated approach for assisting the process of tracing from bug descriptions to relevant source code benefits developers. A large body of previous work aims to address this problem and demonstrates considerable achievements. Most existing approaches focus on the key challenge of improving techniques based on textual similarity to identify relevant files. However, there exists a lexical gap between the natural language used to formulate bug reports and the formal source code and its comments. To bridge this gap, state-of-the-art approaches contain a component for analyzing bug history information to increase retrieval performance. In this paper, we propose a novel approach TraceScore that also utilizes projects' requirements information and explicit dependency trace links to further close the gap in order to relate a new bug report to defective source code files. Our evaluation on more than 13,000 bug reports shows, that TraceScore significantly outperforms two state-of-the-art methods. Further, by integrating TraceScore into an existing bug localization algorithm, we found that TraceScore significantly improves retrieval performance by 49% in terms of mean average precision (MAP).","PeriodicalId":6639,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE/ACM 15th International Conference on Mining Software Repositories (MSR)","volume":"62 1 1","pages":"442-453"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75219814","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}
