报告题目：Bug Report Analytics
Abstract:
To improve the quality of software systems, developers often allow end users and testers to report bugs. The number of bug reports that developers receive are often too many for them to handle. Moreover, resolving bug report is an expensive activity, with billions dollars being spent annually in debugging effort. Software analytics, which focuses on the design and development of specialized data analysis techniques to solve software engineering problems, is an emerging sub-field of software engineering and data mining with many applications, including the management of bug reports. This talk first presents an overview of bug report analytics that can automate (either partially or fully) various steps in a bug report management and resolution cycle. Next, this talk elaborates two recent techniques that have been proposed to (1) recommend developers to bug reports based on their expertise, (2) automatically fix bugs by learning from past bug fixes.
