  • a topological analysis of the open souce software Development Community
    Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2005
    Co-Authors: Yongqin Gao, Scott Christley, Gregory R Madey
    Abstract:

    The fast growth of OSS has increased the interest in studying the composition of the OSS Community and its collaboration mechanisms. Moreover, the success of a project may be related to the underlying social structure of the OSS Development Community. In this paper, we perform a quantitative analysis of Open Source Software developers by studying the entire Development Community at SourceForge. Statistics and social network properties are explored to find collaborations and the effects of different members in the OSS Development Community. Small world phenomenon and scale free behaviors are found in the SourceForge Development network. These topological properties may potentially explain the success and efficiency of OSS Development practices. We also infer from our analysis that weakly associated but contributing co-developers and active users may be an important factor in OSS Development.
