  • Two Case Studies of Open Source Software Development: Apache and Mozilla
    Two Case Studies of Open Source Software Development: Apache and Mozilla AUDRIS MOCKUS Avaya Labs Research ROY T FIELDING Day Software and JAMES D HERBSLEB Carnegie Mellon University According to its proponents, open source style software development has the capacity to compete successfully, and perhaps in many cases displace, traditional commercial development methods. In order to begin investigating such claims, we examine data from two major open source projects, the Apache web server and the Mozilla browser. By using email archives of source code change history and problem reports we quantify aspects of developer participation, core team size, code ownership, productivity, defect density, and problem resolution intervals for these OSS projects. We develop several hypotheses by comparing the Apache project with several commercial projects. We then test and refine several of these hypotheses, based on an analysis of Mozilla data. We conclude with thoughts about the prospects for high-performance commercial/open source process hybrids. Categories and Subject Descriptors: D.2.9 [Software Engineering]— Life cycle, Productivity, Pro- gramming teams, Software process models, Software Quality assurance, Time estimation; D.2.8 [Software Engineering]— Process metrics, Product metrics; K.6.3 [Software Management]— Software development, Software maintenance, Software process General Terms: Management, Experimentation, Measurement, Human Factors Additional Key Words and Phrases: Open source software, defect density, repair interval, code ownership, Apache, Mozilla This work was done while A. Mockus and J. D. Herbsleb were members of software Production Research Department at Lucent Technologies’ Bell Laboratories. This article is a significant extension to the authors’ paper, “A case study of open source software development: the Apache server,” that appeared in the Proceedings of the 22nd International Con- ference on Software Engineering, Limerick, Ireland, June 2000 (ICSE 2000), 263-272.

  • Visual Validation of SSL Certificates in the Mozilla Browser Using Hash Images
    CS Senior Honors Thesis: Visual Validation of SSL Certificates in the Mozilla Browser using Hash Images Hongxian Evelyn Tay [email protected] School of Computer Science Carnegie Mellon University Advisor: Professor Adrian Perrig Electrical & Computer Engineering Engineering & Public Policy School of Computer Science Carnegie Mellon University Monday, May 03, 2004 Abstract Many internet transactions nowadays require some form of authentication from the server for security purposes. Most browsers are presented with a certificate coming from the other end of the connection, which is then validated against root certificates installed in the browser, thus establishing the server identity in a secure connection. However, an adversary can install his own root certificate in the browser and fool the client into thinking that he is connected to the correct server. Unless the client checks the certificate public key or fingerprint, he would never know if he is connected to a malicious server. These alphanumeric strings are hard to read and verify against, so most people do not take extra precautions to check. My thesis is to implement an additional process in server authentication on a browser, using human recognizable images. The process, Hash Visualization, produces unique images that are easily distinguishable and validated. Using a hash algorithm, a unique image is generated using the fingerprint of the certificate. Images are easily recognizable and the user can identify the unique image normally seen during a secure AND accurate connection. By making a visual comparison, the origin of the root certificate is known. 1. Introduction: The Problem 1.1 SSL Security The SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) Protocol has improved the state of web security in many Internet transactions, but its complexity and neglect of human factors has exposed several loopholes in security systems that use it.

  • CARENA, a Tool to Capture and Replay Web Navigation Sessions
    CARENA, a tool to capture and replay web navigation sessions I. J. Niño, B. de la Ossa, J. A. Gil, J. Sahuquillo and A. Pont § Department of Computer Engineering. Polytechnic University of Valencia Camino de Vera, s/n. 46071Valencia (Spain) {innigon1, berospe}@doctor.upv.es, {jagil, jsahuqui, apont}@disca.upv.es Abstract Web user behavior has widely changed over the last years. To perform precise and up-to-date web user behavior characterization is important to carry out representative web performance studies. In this sense, it is valuable to capture detailed information about the user’s experience, which permits to perform a fine grain characterization. Two main types of tools are distinguishable: complex commercial software tools like workload generators and academic tools. The latter mainly concentrate on the development of windows applications which gather web events (e.g., browser events) or tools modifying a part of the web browser code. In this paper, we present CARENA, a client-side browser-embedded tool to capture and replay user navigation sessions. Like some commercial software packages our tool captures information about the user session, which can be used later to replay or mimic the gathered user navigation. Nevertheless, unlike these software packages, our tool emulates the original user think times since these times are important to obtain precise and reliable performance results. Among the main features of CARENA are: multiplatform, open source, lightweight, standards based, easily installable and usable, programmed in JavaScript and XUL. 1. Introduction The main goal of Web performance research is to reduce the users’ perceived latency. An important set of research has concentrated on techniques like caching or prefetching web contents.

  • Review of User Interface Description Languages 183
    Review of User Interface Description Languages 183 Review of User Interface Description Languages Jürgen Engel, Christian Herdin, Christian Märtin Augsburg University of Applied Sciences, Faculty of Computer Science Augsburg, Germany {Juergen.Engel, Christian.Herdin, Christian.Maertin}@hs-augsburg.de Abstract In this paper we compare existing User Interface Description Languages (UIDL) in terms of their suitability, adequacy, practicability, and availability with regard to support model-driven as well as pattern-based software development. The results will be used to extend the potential of our PaMGIS framework for Pat- tern-based Modeling and Generation of Interactive Systems. 1 Introduction In the scope of our research within the Automation in Usability Engineering group (AUE) at Augsburg University of Applied Sciences we develop an integrated approach for the design and semi-automated generation of user interfaces (UI) of interactive software applications. It combines both, model- based and pattern-based development techniques and methods. In this context we have reviewed existing User Interface Description Languages (UIDLs) in terms of their suitability, adequacy, practicability, and availability with re- gard to support model-driven as well as pattern-based software development. The results will be used to extend the potential of our framework for Pattern- based Modeling and Generation of Interactive Systems (PaMGIS) [8]. The further document is organized as follows: the review approach is des- cribed in section 2, brief descriptions of the considered UIDLs are provided in section 3, the review results are summarized in tabular format in section 4, and our lessons learnt and decisions regarding PaMGIS are depicted in sec- tion 5.

  • Extending Your Browser
    Extending your browser •Philip Roche – Karova •[email protected] •http://www.philroche.net/downloads Introduction – Today I’d like to discuss Mozilla as an application development framework, discussing the technologies used in that framework. I’d also like to discuss the Firefox web browser and some of it’s features. I will be talking about three Firefox extensions in particular. I will then attempt to put all that together by showing you the code of an extension I have been developing If you have any questions – don’t hesitate to ask. 1 Introduction Who are Mozilla? What is Firefox? What is Mozilla Application Framework? What is Gecko? 06/02/2007 Extending your browser 2 Mozilla The Mozilla Foundation is a free software/open source project that was founded in order to create the next-generation Internet suite for Netscape. In 2005, the Mozilla Foundation announced the creation of Mozilla Corporation, a wholly owned for-profit taxable subsidiary of Mozilla Foundation, that will focus on delivering Firefox and Thunderbird to end users. It is because of the Mozilla Corporation’s work that we have seen the increase in Firefox’s user base to 31% (w3schools.com jan 2007 stats). Firefox Firefox is a freely available cross-platform browser. Mozilla application framework Also known as XPFE or XPToolkit. A collection of cross-platform software components, One of which is the Gecko Layout engine. Gecko Gecko is a standard-based layout engine designed for performance and portability. The terms Gecko and Mozilla Application Framework tend to interchanged but Gecko is the layout engine that is part of the Mozilla Application Framework collection.

  • Creating Applications with Mozilla
    Using XUL, JavaScript, and CSS Creating Applications with Mozilla David Boswell, Brian King, Ian Oeschger, Pete Collins & Eric Murphy Creating Applications with Mozilla David Boswell, Brian King, Ian Oeschger, Pete Collins, and Eric Murphy Beijing • Cambridge • Farnham • Köln • Paris • Sebastopol • Taipei • Tokyo Chapter 2 CHAPTER 2 Getting Started To help you start creating applications as quickly as possible, this chapter presents two “Hello World” examples that demonstrate the beginning stages of Mozilla appli- cation development. The first example is a simple XUL file that is loaded into the browser window. This example is then expanded on by adding additional features to the XUL file, such as imported stylesheets and JavaScript functions. The second “Hello World” example shows how to turn files like these into packages, which are the modular, bundled sets of files that fit together to make Mozilla applications or new modules for the Mozilla browser. These examples provide a context for discussing the development of Mozilla applica- tions. The first example focuses on creating and editing the basic file types, and the second focuses on the organization and distribution of applications on the Mozilla platform. Simple XUL Example Like all good “Hello World” applications, Example 2-1 shows one of the simplest possible examples of XUL. Although it is small, it demonstrates some important aspects of XUL programming, including the use of event handlers to add behavior and the use of a box to lay out elements properly within the window. This example also provides a context for discussing more general features of the language, such as the file format, the namespace, and some XUL programming conventions.
