- Software Development as Knowledge Intensive and Collaborative Activity
- The knowledge required for the creation of
complex software systems is immense. Given the limitations of human memory,
learning capability, and time dedicated to learning, few developers, if any,
have all the knowledge needed in their own heads. The knowledge is distributed
between the developer and the external world, and the development of a software
system requires that a software developer not only fully utilize the knowledge
in the head but also exert his or her knowing capability—the ability to
access and learn from various knowledge resources in the world—in the
context of development.
- Open Source Software
- Open Source Software is developed by a large
number of volunteers. I am interested in understanding what motivates software
developers to participate in OSS development,
what kind of socio-technical environments are needed for the sustainable
development of OSS
systems and communities, and what are the implications for software engineering
research, education, and practice.
- Information-Enriched
Workspace
- Easy access to external information is essential to the
performance of many information-intensive activities conducted in computer
application systems. However, information repository systems that support the
retrieval of external information are often researched as a self-contained
problem with no consideration of the context where the information is applied.
Information-enriched workspaces integrate the process of retrieving information
from information repository systems and the process of applying information in
computer application systems. In an information-enriched workspace, users can
immediately access the information contextualized to their current task and
background knowledge.
