Empirical research on Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) has shown that developers tend to cluster around two main roles: "core" contributors differ from "peripheral" developers in terms of a larger number of responsibilities and a higher productivity pattern. A further, cross-cutting...

In this paper we will discuss the organization of work which is found to be present in open source projects, and the implications for the expended effort as well as achieved efficiency. The paper is based on several empirical analyses of open source communities. The main method employed is...

Mistakes create rework. Rework takes time and increases costs. The traditional software engineering methodology defines the ratio of Design:Code:Test as 40:20:40. As we can easily see that 40% time and efforts are used in testing phase in traditional approach, that means we have to perform...

Our goal is to analyse the inequality aspects of Human Development Index and to propose a new aggregation function that can adjust it by considering inequality penalisation. We take into account inequality across dimensions and across individuals and three laws of inequality penalisation:...
