Master's Thesis

My master's thesis is available in PDF form
You can also load the LaTeX sources, but note that you will need Visio for some drawings.

Papers

The latest paper which was published on our methodology was in the Working Conference on Software Engineering.
The paper itself is here in PDF, and its LaTeX sources are also available.

We conducted a user study and have a preliminary technical report available as PDF or as sources.
You can download all the material related to the user study. This is for technion use only,
since we have listings of students and results there. Yossi Gil has the original questionnaires.

Before the WCRE papers, we had some drafts submitted to OOPSLA and ICSE; their sources are not currently available.
The first paper published on the subject was in IBM Israel's PL&E conference, and is available in PS.

Posters

A poster was presented in OOPSLA 2003, it is available in PDF form or in Visio sources.
The poster was published with an extended abstract in the OOPSLA companion, available as PDF or as Visio sources.
An older poster was published in the Israeli ILA, it's PDF is available here, or you can download it as a Visio file.

Presentations

Available are several powerpoint presentations I had made on the subject.
First, there is my master's thesis defense presentation. There is a later presentation given at the Technion's Software Design course.
In Carnegie Mellon, I have given a presentation at the SSSG seminar.

Software

There is a lot of Java code releated to the research.
Claudia Lerner and myself are maintaining two separate branches of the code for new research directions. Please contact us directly for the latest sources.
You can download Uri's sources from January 2004.
In addition, an Eclipse plugin was prepared by several undergraduate students at the Technion.
