Investigating the Effects of Gender Bias on GitHub

2019 IEEE/ACM 41ST INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING (ICSE 2019), pp. 700–711.

By: N. Imtiaz n, J. Middleton n, J. Chakraborty n, N. Robson n, G. Bai n & E. Murphy-Hill*

author keywords: GitHub; gender; open source
TL;DR: The effects of gender bias are largely invisible on the GitHub platform itself, but there are still signals of women concentrating their work in fewer places and being more restrained in communication than men. (via Semantic Scholar)

Sentiment and Politeness Analysis Tools on Developer Discussions Are Unreliable, but so Are People

2018 IEEE/ACM 3RD INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON EMOTION AWARENESS IN SOFTWARE ENGINEERING (SEMOTION), pp. 55–61.

By: N. Imtiaz n, J. Middleton n, P. Girouard n & E. Murphy-Hill n

author keywords: sentiment; politeness; affect analysis; GitHub; developer discussion
TL;DR: This paper evaluates popular existing tools for sentiment and politeness detection over a dataset of 589 manually rated GitHub comments that represent developer discussions, and develops a coding scheme on how to quantify politeness for conversational texts found on collaborative platforms.

Which Contributions Predict Whether Developers Are Accepted Into GitHub Teams

2018 IEEE/ACM 15TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MINING SOFTWARE REPOSITORIES (MSR), pp. 403–413.

By: J. Middleton n, E. Murphy-Hill n, D. Green n, A. Meade n, R. Mayer n, D. White n, S. McDonald n

TL;DR: This work studies project communities on GitHub to discover which forms of software contribution characterize developers who begin as development team outsiders and eventually join the team, in contrast to developers who remain team outsiders. (via Semantic Scholar)

Designing for Dystopia Software Engineering Research for the Post-apocalypse

FSE'16: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2016 24TH ACM SIGSOFT INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON FOUNDATIONS OF SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, pp. 924–927.

By: T. Barik n, R. Pandita n, J. Middleton n & E. Murphy-Hill n

author keywords: culture; design fiction; dystopia; ideation; post-apocalypse; software engineering
TL;DR: This paper demonstrates through three pop culture dystopias, Battlestar Galactica, Fallout 3, and Children of Men, how reflecting on dystopian scenarios provides research opportunities as well as implications, such as making research accessible to non-experts, that are relevant to the authors' present.

Perquimans: A Tool for Visualizing Patterns of Spreadsheet Function Combinations

2016 IEEE WORKING CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE VISUALIZATION, pp. 51–60.

By: J. Middleton n & E. Murphy-Hill n

TL;DR: Perquimans is a tool that analyzes spreadsheet collections to visualize patterns of function combination as an interactive tree, representing both the most common and most anomalous patterns of formula construction and their contexts. (via Semantic Scholar)
