Ph.D. Dissertation - Studying the Impact of Developer Communication on the Qu...Nicolas Bettenburg
Software development is a largely collaborative effort, of which the actual encoding of program logic in source code is a relatively small part. Software developers have to collaborate effectively and communicate with their peers in order to avoid coordination problems. To date, little is known how developer communication during software development activities impacts the quality and evolution of a software.
In this thesis, we present and evaluate tools and techniques to recover communication data from traces of the software development activities. With this data, we study the impact of developer communication on the quality and evolution of the software through an in-depth investigation of the role of developer communication during software development activities. Through multiple case-studies on a broad spectrum of open-source software projects, we find that communication between developers stands in a direct relationship to the quality of the software. Our findings demonstrate that our models based on developer communication explain software defects as well as state-of-the art models that are based on technical information such as code and process metrics, and that social information metrics are orthogonal to these traditional metrics, leading to a more complete and integrated view on software defects. In addition, we find that communication between developers plays a important role in maintaining a healthy contribution management process, which is one of the key factors to the successful evolution of the software. Source code contributors who are part of the community surrounding open-source projects are available for limited times, and long communication times can lead to the loss of valuable contributions.
Our thesis illustrates that software development is an intricate and complex process that is strongly influenced by the social interactions between the stakeholders involved in the development activities. A traditional view based solely on technical aspects of software development such as source code size and complexity, while valuable, limits our understanding of software development activities. The research presented in this thesis consists of a first step towards gaining a more holistic view on software development activities.

Fitting Your Name into Your Brand Architecture.
Most brands fit into one of these architecture categories:
Independent Brands: These stand-alone brands represent every offering and activity of the organizations they represent. Most small businesses create independent brands for the simple reason that they are easier to build, manage, and market. At the same time, many very large organizations also present all their offerings under a single brand. The Red Cross is a good example.
Master-Brands with Parent Driven Brands: Parent driven brands are closely and very visibly tied to the name and credibility of the top level master brand. For example, a nonprofit organization that host a a well known annual fundraiser probably treat the yearly event as a parent-driven brand of the organization. On a larger sale, GE is a master brand with an array of parent-drive brands including GE Energy, GE Aviation, and GE Profile, all connected to the parent brand by the brand name GE. Apple is a master brand that connects the brands for iTunes, iPod, iPhone, and iPad to the master brand through consistent use of the Apple logo.
