    Guide to Open Source Solutions

    White paper ___________________________ Guide to open source solutions “Guide to open source by Smile ” Page 2 PREAMBLE SMILE Smile is a company of engineers specialising in the implementing of open source solutions OM and the integrating of systems relying on open source. Smile is member of APRIL, the C . association for the promotion and defence of free software, Alliance Libre, PLOSS, and PLOSS RA, which are regional cluster associations of free software companies. OSS Smile has 600 throughout the World which makes it the largest company in Europe - specialising in open source. Since approximately 2000, Smile has been actively supervising developments in technology which enables it to discover the most promising open source products, to qualify and assess them so as to offer its clients the most accomplished, robust and sustainable products. SMILE . This approach has led to a range of white papers covering various fields of application: Content management (2004), portals (2005), business intelligence (2006), PHP frameworks (2007), virtualisation (2007), and electronic document management (2008), as well as PGIs/ERPs (2008). Among the works published in 2009, we would also cite “open source VPN’s”, “Firewall open source flow control”, and “Middleware”, within the framework of the WWW “System and Infrastructure” collection. Each of these works presents a selection of best open source solutions for the domain in question, their respective qualities as well as operational feedback. As open source solutions continue to acquire new domains, Smile will be there to help its clients benefit from these in a risk-free way. Smile is present in the European IT landscape as the integration architect of choice to support the largest companies in the adoption of the best open source solutions.

    This Book Doesn't Tell You How to Write Faster Code, Or How to Write Code with Fewer Memory Leaks, Or Even How to Debug Code at All

    Practical Development Environments By Matthew B. Doar ............................................... Publisher: O'Reilly Pub Date: September 2005 ISBN: 0-596-00796-5 Pages: 328 Table of Contents | Index This book doesn't tell you how to write faster code, or how to write code with fewer memory leaks, or even how to debug code at all. What it does tell you is how to build your product in better ways, how to keep track of the code that you write, and how to track the bugs in your code. Plus some more things you'll wish you had known before starting a project. Practical Development Environments is a guide, a collection of advice about real development environments for small to medium-sized projects and groups. Each of the chapters considers a different kind of tool - tools for tracking versions of files, build tools, testing tools, bug-tracking tools, tools for creating documentation, and tools for creating packaged releases. Each chapter discusses what you should look for in that kind of tool and what to avoid, and also describes some good ideas, bad ideas, and annoying experiences for each area. Specific instances of each type of tool are described in enough detail so that you can decide which ones you want to investigate further. Developers want to write code, not maintain makefiles. Writers want to write content instead of manage templates. IT provides machines, but doesn't have time to maintain all the different tools. Managers want the product to move smoothly from development to release, and are interested in tools to help this happen more often.

    Cross-Platform Environment for Application Life Cycle Management

    International Journal “Information Theories and Applications”, Vol. 24, Number 2, © 2017 177 CROSS-PLATFORM ENVIRONMENT FOR APPLICATION LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT Elena Chebanyuk, Oleksii Hlukhov Abstract: “Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) integrates and governs the planning, definition, design, development, testing, deployment, and management phases throughout the application lifecycle” [OMG, 2006]. This paper is devoted to designing of ALM for supporting all software development processes. A review of papers, making strong contribution for improving software development life cycle processes is represented. This review touches three branches of investigation, namely papers, related to: (1) improving of communication processes between stakeholders; (2) increasing effectiveness of some operations in software development life cycle processes; (3) developing fundamental methods and tools for performing different operations related to several software development life cycle. Then comparative analysis of such ALM environments as Visual Studio, Team Foundation Server, FusionForge, TeamForge, IBM Rational Team Concert, IBM Rational Software Architect, and IBM Rational Functional Tester, is performed. Comparison of different ALM environments’ functionality lets to formulate requirements for designing cross-platform ALM environment. Then the conceptual schema of cross-platform ALM based on Eclipse environment is proposed. All plugins’ functionalities were properly tested.

Gonzalo Ord´o~nez{Matamoros Email: [email protected] Telephone: +31 53 489 3348 Office: Ravelijn RA 4333 (STEPS) 1 Abstract Open source software development is a major driver of software innovation, yet it has thus far received little attention from innovation research. One of the reasons is that conventional methods such as survey based studies or patent co-citation analysis do not work in the open source communities. In this thesis it will be shown that open source development is very accessible to study, due to its open nature, but it requires special tools. In particular, this thesis introduces the method of dependency graph analysis to study open source software devel- opment on the grandest scale. A proof of concept application of this method is done and has delivered many significant and interesting results.

Deliverable D1.5.1.1 identifies and ranks a set of trustworthiness factors according to the relevance they have for OSS developers, modifiers, and final users. Prior to evaluating the trustworthiness of OSS according to this prioritized list of factors, it is necessary to check whether the information needed to evaluate these factors can actually be retrieved, with what degree of completeness, and with what effort. In this deliverable, we analyze a set of OSS projects that are stored in common OSS repositories, to assess whether OSS repositories provide OSS developers, modifiers, and final users with enough information for them to evaluate OSS projects.
