This paper presentsa Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) method for learningBug tracking concepts in document data. Each attribute in a vector provides the mark of participation of the document in data or term in the parallel concept .The objective to describe the concepts summary based, but to be capable to signify the documents and relations in a combined way for showing document-similarity, docum...

Duplicate bug reports, reports which describe problems or enhancements for which there is already a report in a bug repository, consume time of bug triagers and software developers that might better be spent working on reports that describe unique requests. For many open source projects, the number of duplicate reports represents a significant percentage of the repository, numbering in the thou...

OBJECTIVE To compare the effectiveness of the Bug Buster kit with a single treatment of over the counter pediculicides for eliminating head lice. DESIGN Single blind, multicentre, randomised, comparative clinical study. SETTING Four counties in England and one county in Scotland. PARTICIPANTS 133 young people aged 2-15 years with head louse infestation: 56 were allocated to the Bug Buster...

Females of the subsocial shield bug, Parastrachia japonensis (Parastrachiidae), are central-place foragers, collecting drupes for their young from nearby host trees by walking along the forest floor both during the day and at night. Because burrows are often some distance from the drupe-shedding tree, the bugs must repeatedly leave their burrows, search for drupes, and return to the burrows. Af...

A pilot of the e-Bug programme has been performed in Italy. Three thousand copies of e-Bug packs have been printed and distributed to primary and first-level secondary schools in three north-eastern regions of the country (Veneto, Trentino Alto Adige and Friuli Venezia Giulia). Following the programme design in the pack, lessons based on the e-Bug resources were delivered for 1 week in a primar...

Reports of bed bug infestations in major cities in the United States and abroad have been in the public press. Physicians and other clinicians who care for children need to be able to recognize bed bug bites and understand the social, psychological, and medical implications that this diagnosis will have on patients and their families. In this article, a case presentation serves to guide discuss...

Predominant phytophagous (plant-feeding) stink bugs in the southeast and much of the mid-South are similar and include the green stink bug, Acrosternum hilare (Say), the southern green stink-bug, Nezara viridula (L.), and the brown stink bug, Euschistus servus (Say). Several other species are part of the plantfeeding stink bug complex but are of less importance. Stink bugs will become more impo...

This paper is a report of a feasibility study into an alternative assessment of software processes at the micro-level. Using the novel approach of applying program slicing metrics to identify bug characteristics, the research studied relationships between bug characteristics and their bug fixing processes. The results suggested that specific characteristics such as cyclomatic complexity may rel...

We investigate the correctness of TimSort, which is the main sorting algorithm provided by the Java standard library. The goal is functional verification with mechanical proofs. During our verification attempt we discovered a bug which causes the implementation to crash. We characterize the conditions under which the bug occurs, and from this we derive a bug-free version that does not compromis...

In a survey we found that most developers have experienced duplicated bug reports, however, only few considered them as a serious problem. This contradicts popular wisdom that considers bug duplicates as a serious problem for open source projects. In the survey, developers also pointed out that the additional information provided by duplicates helps to resolve bugs quicker. In this paper, we th...
