چکیده

The Truck Factor designates the minimal number of developers that have to be hit by a truck (or quit) before a project is incapacitated. It can be seen as a measurement of the concentration of information in individual team members. We calculate the Truck Factor for 133 popular GitHub applications, in six languages. Results show that most systems have a small truck factor (46% have Truck Factor=1 and 28% have Truck Factor=2).

A Bi-Objective Green Truck Routing and Scheduling Problem in a Cross Dock with the Learning Effect

We present a bi-objective model for a green truck scheduling and routing problem at a cross-docking system. This model determines three key decisions at the cross dock: (1) defining a sequence and schedule of inbound trucks at the receiving door, (2) specifying a sequence and a schedule of outbound trucks at the shipping door, and (3) determining the routes of the outbound truck while serving c...

New Approaches in Metaheuristics to Solve the Truck Scheduling Problem in a Cross-docking Center

Nowadays, cross-docking is one of the main concepts in supply chain management in which products received to a distribution center by inbound trucks which are directly to lead into outbound trucks with a minimum handling and storage costs as the main cost of a cross-docking system. According to the literature, several metaheuristics and heuristics are attempted to solve this optimization model....

Modeling Library Dependencies and Updates in Large Software Repository Universes

Popular (re)use of third-party open-source software (OSS) is evidence of the impact of hosting repositories like maven on software development today. Updating libraries is crucial, with recent studies highlighting the associated vulnerabilities with aging OSS libraries. The decision to migrate to a newer library can range from trivial (security threat) to complex (assessment of work required to...

Design Optimization and Construction of Double-Sided Linear Induction Motor

Linear induction motors have single and double-sided structures which are used in special applications, according to their advantages and disadvantages. Due to advantages such as lack of normal forces in double-sided type, these motors are more controllable and popular than the single-sided type, especially for transportation applications.  In literature, single-sided linear induction motors ha...

Numerical Approach Toward Calculation of Vibration Characteristics of the Multi Axles Truck Using Lagrange Method

Initially, the first aim of the present study is to model 3-axle rigid truck by developing a code in Matlab. Secondly, each equation should be drived by acquisition of Lagrange approach. After deriving equations successfully, validation is performed by some result which was mentioned in Bohao Li's master thesis. Although the present approach is totally different from the approach that Boahao Li...
