TIRT: A Traceability Information Retrieval Tool for Software Product Lines Projects

Abstract

I specially dedicate this dissertation with love and affection to my father Rosenildo (In Memoriam). The best man and friend I ever met. Firstly to God for every blessing, protection, love and strength throughout my life. To my father Rosenildo (in memoriam), that has always guided me, supported and encouraged me every step of my life. I would like to thank him for his reference of love, happiness, father and teacher, as well as their advices, words of encouragement and support during the master degree. Finally, I would like to dedicate this work to my great, eternal and beloved father Rosenildo, because this is the realization of our dream! To my mother for all support, love and friendship. I am profoundly grateful for her wisdom in understanding the distance that separates us, especially in the most delicate and difficult moments we faced. Mother, know that even with the distance will always be together and great friends. I also dedicate this work with all the love and affection to my mother and friend Graça. My friend and bride Deborah, for all love, affection, support and friendship during this the master degree, as well as by welcome and friendly words in the most adverse moments. My brother Wylker, for friendship during our lives and especially during these years we lived in Recife. To my uncles Marcos, Kêda and their entire family, my eternal gratitude for all comfort and affection during the most delicate moment of my life. All these feelings were channeled in a positive way, giving me strength and support for achieving this work.

TENT: Uma Ferramenta Para Formação de Equipes que Considera Fatores Socioafetivos

“…O estudo experimental da ferramenta foi inspirado em [Santos et al 2012] e realizado com base no processo proposto por [Wohlin et al 2012]. A Ferramenta proposta foi aplicada a um cenário virtualmente simulado, onde as respostas de cada aluno gerado são aleatoriamente escolhidas.…”

Traceability Establishment and Visualization of Software Artefacts in DevOps Practice: A Survey

“…Among many other visualization techniques, lists are a single dimension primary approach that can be applied for a small set of data. This technique shows efficient performance due to its simple structure [32]. Cross-reference is a tabular structure that represents a list of related links for a given software artefact.…”

“…However, the communication among each trace artefacts by traversing the tree tends to be complex [33]. Further, Sunburst and Netmap visualization [32] is a radial layout representation approach.…”

“…Most of the traceability visualization techniques have slightly considered model driven features; thus, there is a limit of supporting to a range of software types [36] [37]. Many related works have addressed issues such as visual clutter and scalability [32] [33] and several tools are integrated with a specific Integrated Development Environment (IDE). However, most of the studies have not addressed different types of software artefacts, as they have considered a certain type of artefacts such as either requirements or source code.…”

SPL-based traceability model for food document tracing

“…The reason to choose precision and recall is because it is commonly used to assess efficiency of any information retrieval mechanism [14] and also because it is suitable in validating our model of tracing keywords for the small scale data.…”
