Automated support for managing feature requests in open forums

Abstract

The result is stable, focused, dynamic discussion threads that avoid redundant ideas and engage thousands of stakeholders.

An analysis of requirements evolution in open source projects: recommendations for issue trackers

“…The fact that much duplication exists in the requirements of open source projects has also been detected by ClelandHuang et al [6]. In their research they focus on open forums, not on issue trackers.…”

“…This leads us to believe that next to experimenting with clustering as in [6] and [10], we need some more sophisticated techniques like e.g. visualization, to support the author in getting an overview of the feature requests posted before.…”

Evolutionary Software Requirements Factors and their Effect on Open Source Project Attractiveness

“…It may appear that the requirements analysis stage is absent. However, Scacchi has identified software informalisms, which are "the One can apply text-mining techniques to classify software informalisms as kinds of requirements [27][28][29][30][31][32]. In the case of a SourceForge project, one can apply textmining techniques to interpret the feature requests as requirements and their associated qualities.…”

Integrated Processes of SDR Data for Real-time Processing

“…Looking at the research related to the improvement of XML data schema extraction processes to improve reuse, there was a research that evaluated cohesion and binding [16]. There is also another research that focuses not only on the reuse of actual components, but also having various final products released from component development processes as required basis [17,18].…”
