MINING SOFTWARE REPOSITORY FOR IMPROVEMENT OF IT PROJECT MANAGEMENT PROCESS

Abstract

With the growing number of IT projects and their complexity their deeper analysis became necessary. For this purpose, the historical data on previously completed projects began to collect-it has enabled projects undergo a detailed analysis, which allowed the efficient implementation of projects and allowed in advance to detect the potential problems. Thus a new area of research, Mining Software Repository (MSR), was born. Research in the field of MSR brings very promising results. The increasing importance of research for gaining the tools to support the process of collecting and analyzing the data related to software development is observed. The data from version control systems, bug tracking systems and issue tracking systems is the most popular. This paper presents the existing MSR tools carries out its analysis and describes the weaknesses of each individual solutions.
