Biedma Nuñez, Pablo (author)The increasing dangers of unfairness in machine learning (ML) are becoming a frequent subject of discussion, both, in academia and popular media. Recent literature focused on introducing and assessing algorithmic solutions to bias in ML. However, there is a disconnect between these solutions and practitioners' needs. By interviewing 30 ML...bachelor thesis 2022

Kula, E. (author), Greuter, Eric (author), van Deursen, A. (author), Gousios, G. (author)Late delivery of software projects and cost overruns have been common problems in the software industry for decades. Both problems are manifestations of deficiencies in effort estimation during project planning. With software projects being complex socio-technical systems, a large pool of factors can affect effort estimation and on-time...journal article 2022

Kotti, Zoe (author), Gousios, G. (author), Spinellis, D. (author)Existing work on the practical impact of software engineering (SE) research examines industrial relevance rather than adoption of study results, hence the question of how results have been practically applied remains open. To answer this and investigate the outcomes of impactful research, we performed a quantitative and qualitative analysis of 4...journal article 2022

Vassallo, Carmine (author), Panichella, Sebastiano (author), Palomba, Fabio (author), Proksch, S. (author), Zaidman, A.E. (author), Gall, HC (author)Automatic static analysis tools (ASATs) are instruments that support code quality assessment by automatically detecting defects and design issues. Despite their popularity, they are characterized by (i) a high false positive rate and (ii) the low comprehensibility of the generated warnings. However, no prior studies have investigated the usage...journal article 2020

(author), Panichella, Sebastiano (author), Gonzalez, Danielle (author), Mirakhorli, Mehdi (author)Automated test case generation tools have been successfully proposed to reduce the amount of human and infrastructure resources required to write and run test cases. However, recent studies demonstrate that the readability of generated tests is very limited due to (i) uninformative identifiers and (ii) lack of proper documentation. Prior...conference paper 2020

Iziyi, Idriss (author)Augmented Reality (AR) - a technology that integrates 3D virtual objects into a real environment in realtime - has recently gained a lot of attention and is expected to become a 100 billion dollar industry by 2023. Surprisingly, researchers present a different picture of AR. They wonder about the functional benefits of AR and the impact of AR...master thesis 2019

Palomba, F. (author), Zanoni, Marco (author), Arcelli Fontana, Francesca (author), De Lucia, Andrea (author), Oliveto, Rocco (author)Code smells are symptoms of poor design and implementation choices. Previous studies empirically assessed the impact of smells on code quality and clearly indicate their negative impact on maintainability, including a higher bug-proneness of components affected by code smells. In this paper, we capture previous findings on bug-proneness to...journal article 2019

Catolino, G. (author), Palomba, F. (author), Zaidman, A.E. (author), Ferrucci, Filomena (author)Modern version control systems, e.g., GitHub, include bug tracking mechanisms that developers can use to highlight the presence of bugs. This is done by means of bug reports, i.e., textual descriptions reporting the problem and the steps that led to a failure. In past and recent years, the research community deeply investigated methods for...journal article 2019

Catolino, G. (author), Palomba, F. (author), Zaidman, A.E. (author), Ferrucci, Filomena (author)The impact of developers' experience on several development practices has been widely investigated in the past. One of the most promising research fields is software testing, as many researchers found significant correlations between developers' experience and testing effectiveness. In this paper, we aim at further studying this relation, by...conference paper 2019

Catolino, G. (author), Palomba, F. (author), Arcelli Fontana, Francesca (author), De Lucia, Andrea (author), Zaidman, A.E. (author), Ferrucci, Filomena (author)Code smells are sub-optimal implementation choices applied by developers that have the effect of negatively impacting, among others, the change-proneness of the affected classes. Based on this consideration, in this paper we conjecture that code smell-related information can be effectively exploited to improve the performance of change...journal article 2019

Palomba, F. (author), Panichella, A. (author), Zaidman, A.E. (author), Oliveto, Rocco (author), De Lucia, Andrea (author)Code smells are symptoms of poor design or implementation choices that have a negative effect on several aspects of software maintenance and evolution, such as program comprehension or change- and fault-proneness. This is why researchers have spent a lot of effort on devising methods that help developers to automatically detect them in source...journal article 2018

Palomba, F. (author), Zaidman, A.E. (author), De Lucia, Andrea (author)Software testing is a key activity to control the reliability of production code. Unfortunately, the effectiveness of test cases can be threatened by the presence of faults. Recent work showed that static indicators can be exploited to identify testrelated issues. In particular test smells, i.e., sub-optimal design choices applied by developers...conference paper 2018
