“…There exists a broad corpus of research in mining software repositories, but it is usually concerned with mining versioning repositories of individual systems to detect problems with the source code [34], [36], mining a single developer's interactions with his IDE to improve the IDE [13], [31], or to predict bugs [6]. However, recently there has been a surge of interest in pushing software analysis beyond the level of individual systems, one of the reasons being the new availability of data.…”

Informed decision making is a critical activity in software development, but it is poorly supported by common development environments, which focus mainly on low-level programming tasks. We posit the need for agile software assessment, which aims to support decision making by enabling rapid and effective construction of software models and custom analyses. Agile software assessment entails gathering and exploiting the broader context of software information related to the system at hand as well as the ecosystem of related projects, and beyond to include "big software data". Finally, informed decision making entails continuous assessment by monitoring the evolving system and its architecture. We identify several key research challenges in supporting agile software assessment by focusing on customization, context and continuous assessment.

“…Knowledge representation and tools in a map-based service can be realized with various technologies, such as JavaScript, SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics), Flash, Java applets, and Silverlight [ 24 ]. SVG, JavaScript [ 11 , 25 ], and Flash [ 26 , 27 ] are currently used to publish online maps, enabling interactions with maps and map animations.…”

A Map-Based Service Supporting Different Types of Geographic Knowledge for the Public

The internet enables the rapid and easy creation, storage, and transfer of knowledge; however, services that transfer geographic knowledge and facilitate the public understanding of geographic knowledge are still underdeveloped to date. Existing online maps (or atlases) can support limited types of geographic knowledge. In this study, we propose a framework for map-based services to represent and transfer different types of geographic knowledge to the public. A map-based service provides tools to ensure the effective transfer of geographic knowledge. We discuss the types of geographic knowledge that should be represented and transferred to the public, and we propose guidelines and a method to represent various types of knowledge through a map-based service. To facilitate the effective transfer of geographic knowledge, tools such as auxiliary background knowledge and auxiliary map-reading tools are provided through interactions with maps. An experiment conducted to illustrate our idea and to evaluate the usefulness of the map-based service is described; the results demonstrate that the map-based service is useful for transferring different types of geographic knowledge.

“…Finally, the last paper of the special section by Marco D'Ambros, Michele Lanza, Mircea Lungu, and Romain Robbes, "On Porting Software Visualization Tools to the Web", describes their experiences for porting two software visualization tools into the Web [1]. The goal of this work allows software visualization tools to be executed as Web applications to reduce the difficulty in the tool installation and make them more accessible to a larger user base.…”
