  • A Design Science Tool to Improve Code Maintainability for Hypertext
    A DESIGN SCIENCE TOOL TO IMPROVE CODE MAINTAINABILITY FOR HYPERTEXT PRE-PROCESSOR (PHP) PROGRAMS Grant Trudel livepro Australia, Brisbane, [email protected] Australia Samuel Sambasivam* Woodbury University, Burbank, [email protected] CA, USA *Corresponding author ABSTRACT Aim/Purpose A design science tool to improve code maintainability for PHP programs. Background This paper addresses this issue by providing an enhancement to an existing tool that specifically addresses and improves program maintainability for PHP programs. Methodology This paper uses design science research which involves creating or modifying one or more artifacts. In this case, the artifact is PHP Code Sniffer, which was modified to improve code maintainability of PHP programs. Contribution This paper provides a method of improving code maintainability of PHP programs. Findings Code quality in terms of maintainability is a modern-day issue. No tool spe- cifically addresses maintainability. When updating PHP code that has poor maintainability, there is a much higher likelihood that errors will be intro- duced than with code that is more maintainable. Recommendations For PHP developers and project leaders dealing with PHP programs, running for Practitioners the modified PHP Code Sniffer will improve code maintainability. Recommendations Examine ways to improve other code quality aspects such as reliability, secu- for Researchers rity, usability, efficiency, and so on. Impact on Society PHP programs, which run the background processes behind most web pages, will be more robust, reliable, and correct. Future Research Expand this to investigate improving maintainability for other common pro- gramming languages. Accepted by Editor Michael Jones │ Received: December 20, 2020 │ Revised: April 2, 2021 │ Accepted: April 19, 2021.

  • Open Source 101
    Open Source 101 Sam Tuke MBA phpList Chief Executive @samtuke @phpList Previously: Origins: Richard Stallman at MIT For Want of a Printer https://www.oreilly.com/openbook/freedom/ch01.html In the late 1970s, Richard M. Stallman (RMS) was a staff programmer at MIT. His department, like those at many universities at the time, shared a PDP-10 computer and a single printer. One problem they encountered was that paper would regularly jam in the printer, causing a string of print jobs to pile up in a queue until someone fixed the jam. To get around this problem, the MIT staff came up with a nice social hack: They wrote code for the printer driver so that when it jammed, a message would be sent to everyone who was currently waiting for a print job: "The printer is jammed, please fix it." This way, it was never stuck for long. In 1980, the lab accepted a donation of a brand-new laser printer. When Stallman asked for the source code for the printer driver, however, so he could reimplement the social hack to have the system notify users on a paper jam, he was told that this was proprietary information. He heard of a researcher in a different university who had the source code for a research project, and when the opportunity arose, he asked this colleague to share it—and was shocked when they refused. They had signed an NDA, which Stallman took as a betrayal of the hacker culture. Xerox 9700 Defining freedom Open Source defined: 4 freedoms 1.

  • 101 Open Source Apps for Enterprises by Cynthia Harvey July 7, 2009
    101 Open Source Apps for Enterprises By Cynthia Harvey July 7, 2009 Until recently, few enterprises were using open source software for back office applications, such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM). But last month, an IDC survey of Western European companies found that nearly ten percent were using open source enterprise software. That's surprisingly high for a market where the industry leaders themselves have only a ten percent share. IDC also reported that the leading open source enterprise applications are growing – by 20 percent or more per year. That's good news for the owners of the projects on our list. Unlike other categories of open-source applications, a high percentage of enterprise projects are money-making ventures that offer commercial support, training, and/or add-on features. The scent of money in the air probably also explains why there are so many open source enterprise applications available. In other categories, like open source browsers, for instance, you'll struggle to find half a dozen good choices. But if you're looking for open source CRM or content management apps, you'll face more of a struggle in narrowing the dozens of choices down to a short list. To help you get started on the process, here are 101 open source enterprise applications. Note: Enterprise applications can be very difficult to categorize. The features that one group calls "customer relationship management," another group may call "sales force automation." And terms like "content management" and "groupware" mean very different things to different people. In addition, many of these apps combine multiple functions in a single package.
