Recommendation Systems in Software Engineering : Springer : 9783642451348 : 3642451349 : 14 May 2014 : With the growth of public and private data stores and the emergence of off-the-shelf data-mining technology, recommendation systems have emerged that specifically address the unique challenges of navigating and interpreting software engineering data. This book collects, structures and formalizes knowledge on recommendation systems in software engineering. It adopts a pragmatic approach with an explicit focus on system design, implementation, and evaluation. The book is divided into three parts: ?Part I ? Techniques? introduces basics for building recommenders in software engineering, including techniques for collecting and processing software engineering data, but also for presenting recommendations to users as part of their workflow. ?Part II ? Evaluation? summarizes methods and experimental designs for evaluating recommendations in software engineering. ?Part III ? Applications? de
