IEEE Software Special Issue: Development Tools
Summary
The issue will address software development tools from the two perspectives: problems and tasks. From the problem perspective the issue will examine how particular tools can be used to address modern software development challenges. Such challenges include software complexity, utilizing multi-core processors, coordination in global teams, dealing with legacy software, compliance, agile software development, and localization. Task-oriented articles will examine advances and trends in specific areas, compare specific tools and approaches, or present an in-depth description of a particular tool. Examples of tool categories that task-oriented articles can address include: editors, compilers, debuggers, build managers, bug trackers, version control management systems, static analyzers, profilers, documentation generators, and integrated development environments. The issue will focus on practical articles whose claims are backed up by working software or empirical evidence.
