 Triangle Java Users Group presents:

   A Software Engineering Tool for Distributed Development

 Presented by:

   Jason Carter
   UNC-Chapel Hill

Monday October 18, 2010
6:30 PM - 9:00 PM
Red Hat/Raleigh
1801 Varsity Drive, Raleigh, NC
TriJUG (http://trijug.org) meetings are hosted by JBoss

 Presentation summary:

  One of the problems of distributed software engineering is that it is
  difficult to determine if remote team members need help. In this talk,
  we will motivate and describe a preliminary approach that determines
  if programmers are stuck and give a detailed overview of a tool
  that is built using this approach. We will also discuss the issues
  raised by the design of such a tool, our preliminary approach to
  resolving these issues, and applications for the tool.

 About the Speaker:

  Jason Carter is a Phd Student at UNC-Chapel Hill. Before becoming a
  student at UNC, he worked as a consultant and web programmer. His
  research interests include collaborative software engineering,
  software engineering metrics, and machine learning.
