User interfaces for source code editing are a crucial component in any software development environment, and in many editors visual annotations (overlaid on the textual source code) are used to provide important contextual information to the programmer. This paper focuses on the real-time programming activity of ‘cyberphysical’ programming, and considers the type of visual annotations which may be...
Agile processes have been developed and used for a long time now as a guideline for teams to follow when they start a project -- Scrum, eXtreme Programming, Kanban are well known examples. However, as the project evolves, it is natural that, as a response to its peculiarities, the process itself is tailored to satisfy that team's needs. This experience report tells the story of a team that chose to...
This article introduces Object-Oriented Intensional Programming (OO-IP), a new hybrid language between Object-Oriented and Intensional Programming Languages in the sense of the latest evolutions of Lucid. This new hybrid language - called JOOIP for Java Object Oriented Intensional Programming - combines the essential characteristics of Lucid and Java, and introduces the notion of object streams which...
The collaborative development of shared understanding is crucial to the success of software development projects. It is also a challenging and volatile process in practice. Small organizations may be especially vulnerable due to reliance on key individuals and insufficient resource to employ several domain specialists. There is, however, minimal empirical research on sharing domain understanding in...
Academic scientific software development projects aim to provide valuable research tools to aid the scientific community in the process of discovery. The need for those tools to meet wider expectations of usability and good user experience design is critical to success; however the nature of academic e-science software development projects means they are often constrained by too narrow an understanding...
UML being semi formal in nature, it lacks formal syntax and hence automated verification of analysis and design specifications cannot be done. Verification at early phases of SDLC has gained significant importance because of the possibility of early error detection resulting in reduced costs and time to market. To address this, in this paper we propose a formal grammar for the three of the commonly...
