Speaker: Prof. Dror Feitelson Title: Observations on Linux Development Affil.: Hebrew University, CS Time: *Today*, 16/11/11, *11:30* * * * * Location: *Meyer 861* Abstract: Below Linux is used extensively in systems research as a platform for the implementation of new ideas, exploiting its open-source nature. But Linux is also interesting as an object of study about software engineering. In particular, Linux defies common management theories, as it lacks any coherent plan or management structure, but still grows at an ever-increasing rate, while also gaining market share. We will review some previous studies of Linux development and add new observations regarding the lifecycle model and code complexity. The presentation includes results of my students Ayelet Israeli, Ahmad Jbara, and Adam Matan. *bio:* Dror Feitelson has been on the faculty of the School of Computer Science and Engineering at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem since 1995. His major contributions have been in parallel job scheduling (where he co-founded the JSSPP series of workshops) and workload modeling (where he maintains the parallel workloads archive). Recently he has also started to work on software engineering, and in particular the development of open-source systems like Linux. o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-optout-optout-optout-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o To unsubscribe, click the following link: http://listserv.technion.ac.il/cgi-bin/wa?TICKET=NzM0NDg2IG11bGlAQ1MuVEVDSE5JT04uQUMuSUwgQ0xVQk5FVC1MIDhP/bsHa+vZ&c=SIGNOFF ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Muli Ben-Yehuda | http://www.mulix.org _______________________________________________ Haifux mailing list Haifux@haifux.org http://hamakor.org.il/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haifux
