Stauffer Final Approval and Acceptance by the College of Graduate Studies: Date: Dr. Jie Chen iii Abstract Software engineering is usually a team effort. Distributed software development needs real-time collaboration tools that help replicate the benefits of face-to-face meetings and support interaction among team members. Unfortunately, most of the tools that exist have limited capabilities, such as source code editing, and developers face collaboration and communication challenges in working with each other. Over the past decade software researchers have invented various development tools that integrate collaborative features. Unfortunately, most software developers still lack the right means and level of communication to coordinate their work and perform their tasks effectively, particularly in distributed settings. Developers still lack a sense of remote team members’ presence, and in some contexts, such as open source development, they still find it difficult to find appropriate project partners. This draws attention to the need for community integration inside collaborative development environment tools. This dissertation investigates collaboration and communication mechanisms for distributed software development. The research results include solutions to problems that are associated with providing online awareness and presence information, and determine the prospective gains from the use of these solutions. This research contributes the core idea and novel design and implementation techniques for a real-time social collaborative integrated development environment (IDE). It describes the design and implementation of a social collaborative IDE inside a virtual environment named Collaborative Virtual Environment (CVE) where users can interact with each other within a 3D virtual world. A subsystem of CVE called Social Collaborative Integrated Development Environment (SCI) is presented that supports communication and collaboration within a distributed software development community, and integrates community and social features inside the development environment. SCI addresses the communication and collaboration needs in a variety of different phases in a team software development process, unifies the concepts of social networking and collaborative IDE, and integrates presence information and collaborative development tools into a single environment. In addition, this dissertation relates the contributions to previous research and describes directions for future work. This dissertation discusses social networking features that offer a context, and provide activity, and presence information within a development community. A central component of these features is an awareness monitor that shows the team members’ activity, and provides general awareness of projects’ progress and development changes, and makes them easy to track. iv Acknowledgment Every dissertation is a joint effort and mine is no exception. I would like to express my gratitude to all the people who supported this work. It has been a long journey involved with major research challenges and overcoming critical developments obstacles. I would like to thank my major professor, Dr. Clinton Jeffery, for his critical eye and foresight. It has been pleasure learning from his experience and insights for these past six years. Without his early guidance and encouragement, my years as a Ph.D. student would have been far less productive. I thank him for his encouragement, patience, support, and knowledge. I would like to thank my committee members: Dr. Jim Alves-Foss, Dr. Robert Rinker, and Dr. Barry Willis, for their encouragement and constructive criticism about the presented research and the formatting of this dissertation.

  • Devopsuse: Community-Driven Continuous Innovation of Web Information Infrastructures

Matthias Jarke Universitätsprofessor Dr.-Ing. Günther Schuh Privatdozent Dr. rer. nat. Ralf Klamma Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 8. Mai 2020 Diese Dissertation ist auf den Internetseiten der Universitätsbibliothek online verfügbar. ii Abstract Since its invention in 1989, the only reliable factor on the Web has been its continuous change and diffusion into more and more application areas. The evolution was shaped by an interplay of new technologies on the one hand, and innovative application ideas from communities on the other. At a technological scale, alternation between vastly distributed and centralized architectures can be observed. The current challenges caused by the ongoing digital transformation are changing workplace settings and the adoption of the Internet of Things in industrial use cases, as for example in the context of Industry 4.0. On the Web, new technologies and device types sprawl together with new communication protocols and revised application programming interfaces (APIs). This inhibits the demanded rapid innovation cycles and creates a disruptive and unstable environment in which the requirements of endless communities must be met. Information systems infrastructure, while only partially visible and thus hard to grasp, has a strong influence on user practices. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to stabilize the dichotomies apparent in the Web by means of an agile information systems development methodology.

    Solution Snapshot Mainsoft and the System z Business Benefits of Porting .NET Apps to the Mainframe By Tony Lock The Sageza Group, Inc. August 2006 The Sageza Group, Inc. 32108 Alvarado Blvd #354 Union City, CA 94587 510·675·0700 fax 650·649·2302 sageza.com London +44 (0) 20·7900·2819 [email protected] Milan +39 02·9544·1646 Mainsoft and the System z ABSTRACT There are two major platforms that today dominate the development of enterprise applications, namely J2EE and Microsoft .NET. Both of these application development environments have attracted large numbers of organizations, and each has its own attractions and limitations. For organizations that have selected Microsoft .NET for application development, the choice of server platform has, until recently, been limited to Microsoft's Windows Server. However, many organizations are now looking to consolidate their server infrastructures to a limited set of platforms, primarily in order to enhance operational security and to minimize the cost of service delivery. The software solutions provided by Mainsoft Corporation now offer enterprise customers the choice of running applications developed using Microsoft .NET on the most secure and highly available server platform available, namely IBM's System z, known to one and all as the mainframe. Mainsoft’s software enables Microsoft .NET applications to run as 100% Java bytecode on a mainframe server. The benefits for organizations deploying applications in this way are many and increasingly desirable. The benefits provided include the ability for experienced .NET developers to continue building and maintaining enterprise applications in the existing environment using the tools with which they are familiar but allowing the organization to deploy said applications in the most robust and secure server platform available, the mainframe.

  • More Than Writing Text: Multiplicity in Collaborative Academic Writing
    More Than Writing Text: Multiplicity in Collaborative Academic Writing Ida Larsen-Ledet Ph.D. Thesis Department of Computer Science Aarhus University Denmark More Than Writing Text: Multiplicity in Collaborative Academic Writing A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of Natural Sciences of Aarhus University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Ph.D. Degree. by Ida Larsen-Ledet November 2, 2020 Abstract This thesis explores collaborative academic writing with a focus on how it is medi- ated by multiple technologies. The thesis presents findings from two empirical stud- ies with university students and researchers: The first combined semi-structured interviews with visualizations of document editing activity to explore transitions through co-writers’ artifact ecologies along with co-writers’ motivations for per- forming these transitions. The second study was a three-stage co-design workshop series that progressed from dialog through ideation to exploration of a prototype for a shared editor that was based on the participants’ proposed features and designs. The contribution from the second study to this thesis is the analysis of participants’ viewpoints and ideas. The analyses of these findings contribute a characterization of co-writers’ practical and social motivations for using multiple tools in their collaborations, and the chal- lenges this poses for sharing and adressing the work. Multiplicity is also addressed in terms of co-writers bringing multiple and diverse needs and preferences into the writing, and how these may be approached in efforts to design and improve support for collaborative writing. Additionally, the notion of text function is introduced to describe the text’s role as a mediator of the writing.
