Abstract
Software code can provide important insights into the results of research, but it's up to individual scientists whether their code is released---and many opt not to.

Understanding code snippets in code reviews: a preliminary study of the OpenStack community
ICPC '22: Proceedings of the 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Program ComprehensionCode review is a mature practice for software quality assurance in software development with which reviewers check the code that has been committed by developers, and verify the quality of code. During the code review discussions, reviewers and ...
Bug localization via searching crowd-contributed code
Internetware '14: Proceedings of the 6th Asia-Pacific Symposium on InternetwareBug localization, i.e., locating bugs in code snippets, is a frequent task in software development. Although static bug-finding tools are available to reduce manual effort in bug localization, these tools typically detect bugs with known project-...
Understanding and Detecting Harmful Code
SBES '20: Proceedings of the XXXIV Brazilian Symposium on Software EngineeringCode smells typically indicate poor design implementation and choices that may degrade software quality. Hence, they need to be carefully detected to avoid such poor design. In this context, some studies try to understand the impact of code smells on the ...
