چکیده

Studies of software evolution have long tried to understand the interplay between the software itself and its developers. Such studies usually require extensive tool support due to large and complex data that need to be collected, processed, and analyzed. Although several tools have been proposed, they often provide limited support to studying software evolution by considering technical and social aspects in isolation. In this paper, we describe XFlow, an extensible tool for empirical analysis of software evolution. We start by presenting the tool features and its architecture, and then we show usage scenarios that support the formulation of empirical hypothesis based on insightful visualizations.

Data envelopment analysis in service quality evaluation: an empirical study

Service quality is often conceptualized as the comparison between service expectations and the actual performance perceptions. It enhances customer satisfaction, decreases customer defection, and promotes customer loyalty. Substantial literature has examined the concept of service quality, its dimensions, and measurement methods. We introduce the perceived service quality index (PSQI) as a sing...

The iBench Integration Metadata Generator

Given the maturity of the data integration field it is surprising that rigorous empirical evaluations of research ideas are so scarce. We identify a major roadblock for empirical work the lack of comprehensive metadata generators that can be used to create benchmarks for different integration tasks. This makes it difficult to compare integration solutions, understand their generality, and under...
