Predicting reuse of end-user web macro scripts (original) (raw)

Using traits of web macro scripts to predict reuse

2010

To help people find a code that they might want to reuse, repositories of end-user code typically sort scripts by number of downloads, ratings, or other information based on prior uses of the code. However, this information is unavailable when the code is new or when it has not yet been reused. Addressing this problem requires identifying reusable code based solely on information that exists when a script is created.

Characterizing Reusability of End-User Web Macro Scripts

2008

Abstract Email clients were not designed to serve as a task management tools, but a high volume of task-relevant information in email leads many people to use email clients for this purpose. Such usage aggravates a user's experience of email overload and reduces productivity. Prior research systems have sought to address this problem by experimentally adding task management capabilities to email client software.

Detecting code re-use potential

Proceedings of the 19th Central European Conference on Information and Intelligent Systems

Living in a dynamic world requires rapid development of both web and desktop applications to support such trend in IT industry. Processes are becoming more complicated, and in turn more demanding. There are two problems regarding applications: development and maintenance. In this paper we are discussing optimization of applications code and re-usability. The main idea is to compare certain application parts or modules and determine the amount of overlapping content. If there is a certain percentage of overlapping, it means that targeted part of code can be optimized in such way that it is programmed in one place and then re-used as such in other places. This speeds up development and makes maintenance easier. In this paper we will present the process of code comparison and pre-processing that is needed to recognize invariants of the same code.
