TLDR
It is theorized that learning is one of the motivational forces that motivates people to participate in OSS communities, and is grounded in the learning theory of Legitimate Peripheral Participation and is supported by analyzing the social structure of O SS communities and the co-evolution between OSS systems and communities.

Evolution patterns of open-source software systems and communities
TLDR
A case study of four typical OSS projects is conducted, and it is found that while collaborative development within a community is the essential characteristic of OSS, different collaboration models exist, and that the difference in collaboration model results in different evolution patterns of O SS systems and communities.

Meta-design
TLDR
In scientific and engineering domains, end users frequently develop complex systems with standard programming languages such as C++ and Java, however, only a minority of users adapt commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software products.

Supporting reuse by delivering task-relevant and personalized information
  • Y. Ye, G. Fischer
  • Computer Science
    Proceedings of the 24th International Conference…
  • 19 May 2002
TLDR
This research has explored a new interaction style between software developers and reuse repository systems enabled by information delivery mechanisms, where information delivery autonomously locates and presents components by using the developers' partially written programs as implicit queries.

TLDR
Empirical evaluations of CodeBroker have shown that the system is effective in promoting reuse by enabling software developers to reuse components unknown to them, reducing the difficulties in locating components, and augment the programming capability of software developers.

Metadesign: Guidelines for Supporting Domain Experts in Software Development
TLDR
The metadesign framework is created, which reformulates software development activities as a continuum of different degrees of design and use, and develops a set of guidelines for supporting domain experts in software development.

Supporting component-based software development with active component repository systems
TLDR
This dissertation advocates a paradigm shift from development-with-reuse to reuse-within-development, which views reuse as an integral part of software development, and component repository systems as information systems that augment programmers' insufficient knowledge about reusable components and assist them in accomplishing their tasks.
Information delivery in support of learning reusable software components on demand
TLDR
The challenging issues in implementing information delivery are discussed and techniques to address them are illustrated with the CodeBroker system, which supports learning on demand with information delivery by identifying learning opportunities of which users might not be aware.

Integrating active information delivery and reuse repository systems
TLDR
It is argued that this crucial barrier to reuse is overcome by integrating active information delivery, which presents information without explicit queries from the user, and reuse repository systems.
