    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informatik och media

    Author : Maimuna Badjie; [2022]
    Keywords : Free and Open Source Software;

    Abstract : Despite the abundance of literature on free and open source software (FOSS), its impact on individual developers’ productivity is a topic that is under explored. Moreover, the traditional measures of developers’ productivity are based on objective measures (lines of code) instead of subjective measures (self-rated productivity). READ MORE

  2. 2. Feature Extraction and FeatureSelection for Object-based LandCover Classification : Optimisation of Support Vector Machines in aCloud Computing Environment

    University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik
