This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the International Workshop on Software Measurement, IWSM-Mensura 2007, held in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, in November 2007. The 16 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers deal with aspects of software measurement like function-points measurement, effort and cost estimates, prediction, industrial experiences in software measurement, planning and implementing measurement, measurement-based software process improvement, best practices in software measurement, usability and user interaction measurement, measurement of open source projects, teaching and learning software measurement as well as new trends and ontologies for software measurement.
Building upon the knowledge introduced in The Data Science Framework, this book provides a comprehensive and detailed examination of each aspect of Data Analytics, both from a theoretical and practical standpoint. The book explains representative algorithms associated with different techniques, from their theoretical foundations to their implementation and use with software tools. Designed as a textbook for a Data Analytics Fundamentals course, it is divided into seven chapters to correspond with 16 weeks of lessons, including both theoretical and practical exercises. Each chapter is dedicated to a lesson, allowing readers to dive deep into each topic with detailed explanations and examples....
This edited book first consolidates the results of the EU-funded EDISON project (Education for Data Intensive Science to Open New science frontiers), which developed training material and information to assist educators, trainers, employers, and research infrastructure managers in identifying, recruiting and inspiring the data science professionals of the future. It then deepens the presentation of the information and knowledge gained to allow for easier assimilation by the reader. The contributed chapters are presented in sequence, each chapter picking up from the end point of the previous one. After the initial book and project overview, the chapters present the relevant data science competencies and body of knowledge, the model curriculum required to teach the required foundations, profiles of professionals in this domain, and use cases and applications. The text is supported with appendices on related process models. The book can be used to develop new courses in data science, evaluate existing modules and courses, draft job descriptions, and plan and design efficient data-intensive research teams across scientific disciplines.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of two joint events - the International Workshop on Software Measurement, IWSM 2009 and the International Conference on Software Process and Product Measurement, Mensura 2009, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in November 2009. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions for inclusion in the book. This book considers issues such as the applicability of measures and metrics to software, the efficiency of measurement programs in industry and the theoretical foundations of software engineering.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of three joint events - the International Workshop on Software Measurement, IWSM 2008, the DASMA Metrik Kongress, Metrikon 2008, and the International Conference on Software Process and Product Measurement, Mensura 2008, held in Munich, Germany, in November 2008. The 30 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from over 50 submissions for inclusion in the book. The papers are organized in topical sections on estimation models, measurement methodology, effort estimation, measurement programs, new approaches, prozessbewertung, size measurement, education, measurement in software lifecycle, and product measurement.
This textbook is intended for SPI (software process improvement) managers and - searchers, quality managers, and experienced project and research managers. The papers constitute the research proceedings of the 16th EuroSPI (European Software Process Improvement, www.eurospi.net) conference held in Alcala (Madrid region), September 2–4, 2009, Spain.
