Fourth International Workshops on Foundations and Techniques for Open Source Software Certification, September 17 – 18, Pisa.
Over the past decade, open source software has had a global impact on the way software systems and software-based services are developed, distributed and deployed. OSS has been praised for low development and maintenance costs, rapid code turnover, and reliability.
The workshop will bring together researchers from academia and industry who are broadly interested in the quality assessment of open source software projects, ultimately leading to the establishment of coherent certification processes at different levels. Foundational, methodological and pragmatic issues will be addressed through standard technical communications and reports on concrete case studies and experimental data.
