Report on data-intensive software management and mining
Seung-won Hwang · ACM SIGMOD Record · 2011
With the increase of publicly available software repositories, we face new challenges related to managing and mining large-scale software repositories. These challenges naturally call for novel research contributions from large-scale data management and mining researchers. Software repositories include multi-version source code, bug reports, and development history, and managing these repositories has been recognized as an important task in software design, development, and maintenance processes. Due to these emerging challenges, many recent publications in major software engineering conferences and journals, such as ICSE, FSE, or TSE, have been contributed by database and mining researchers. To showcase some such efforts, mining
