Using MatLab's fuzzy logic toolbox to create an application for RAMSET in software engineering courses

Abstract

Role Assignment Methodology for Software Engineering Teams (RAMSET) methodology relates personality, abilities, and software roles for building Software Engineering Teams, applying sociometric, and psychometric techniques. This paper presents the results and experience of applying RAMSET's software supporting tool developed under a fuzzy approach. This software facilitates the role assignment decision making process, which results in a choice of role selection for individuals in working team projects. It has been applied in Software Engineering Courses of our Computer Engineering Program with great success giving students a practical experience in learning objectives, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Personality, emotional intelligence and work preferences in software engineering: An empirical study

“…It applies sociometric and psychometric techniques through a fuzzy approach. The methodology is applied in SE courses [7] and according to the writers it can improve the efficiency of the classroom teams. Recently, Rehman et al [76] Moreover, the existing empirical studies that link personality to working preferences towards software development are contradictory.…”

“…In studies where multivariate analysis was applied, either no relations were found [4] or only one personality factor was taken into consideration [67]. Finally, noteworthy are studies where fuzzy techniques [75,7] and decision trees analysis [4] were applied.…”

“…There have been several calls to value and study human factors in SE [1,2,3] and in recent years there has also been an increase in empirical studies [4,5,6,7]. Even though technical and methodological innovation and improvement is essential to progress the developers themselves are often the same and their motivations, needs, characteristics and even idiosyncrasies must be understood to improve the socio-technical system as a whole.…”

Comparação entre diferentes softwares em um projeto de controle Fuzzy aplicado a uma cadeira de rodas motorizada

“…Na literatura há trabalhos em que o controle Fuzzyé implementado no Toolbox do Matlab, tais como Aras et al (2011), no qual o controle Fuzzy foi utilizado para controlar a temperatura durante o cozimento de arroz. O trabalho de Martínez et al (2010) também utiliza esse Toolbox, neste o objetivoé identificar as qualidades de indivíduos para formar equipes de trabalho mais adequadas. No trabalho de Tyagi et al (2013), a implementação do controle Fuzzy proposto para uma cadeira de rodas também foi simulado neste Toolbox.…”

Psychosocial Correlates of Software Designers' Professional Aptitude

“…research on software developers' personality traits Recently, there has been a great interest in testing and evaluating psychosocial variables, including personality, among the group of programmers [2][3][4][5][6]. The techniques used in these studies, which are very diverse, are the effect of an operationalization of a particular theoretical model that investigates personality [7][8].…”
