Blackbox Mini - Getting Started With Blackbox Data Analysis
Neil C. C. Brown, Michael Kölling · 2020
The Blackbox project collects programming activity data from users of BlueJ, a Java IDE aimed at novices. The Blackbox data set has grown very large, with several terabytes of source code data. This is a double-edged sword; it provides large amounts of data for analysis, but it can be difficult for newcomer researchers to get started with analysis. In this workshop we will introduce attendees to analysing the data by using Blackbox Mini: a new curated subset of the Blackbox data set, designed to help researchers try out their source code analyses on a smaller data set.
