RESEARCHERS’ CORNER – Resources for software reliability engineering researchers
· Software failure data - directly accessible
· DEBUGGING HISTORY ARCHIVE: Growing archive of more than 2,500,000 programs for solving more than 1500 different problems. Each programmer normally submits series of programs until program is judged (automatically) correct. Thus archive represents a wide diversity of small programs written by a large set of international programmers, with complete debugging histories recorded. It offers a great opportunity for software reliability research!
o Access debugging history archive directly: http://online-judge.uva.es
o Access software reliability researchers with experience in using degugging history archive: http://www.csr.city.ac.uk/people/meine.van.der.meulen/ProgrammingContest.html
· LISTS OF OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS (over 100,000): Usually free from proprietary restrictions on data and hence very promising resources for researchers
o List 1
o List 2
o Users of bug reporting tool (more likely to have bug data)
