A Dataset for detecting Change Coupling and Structural Dependencies.

Introduction

This repository hosts the results of runs evaluating the first developments of prototype tool for detecting Change Coupling and Structural Dependencies in the context of cyber-physical-systems(CPS). This tool analyzes the projects' code repository history and uses rule mining to detect logistical couplings, it also analyzes the source code to detect which of those changes have additional structural dependencies. 

The two datasets are the result from the analysis of two popular GitHub CPS projects:

Eclipse Concierge (Java) — a small-footprint implementation of the OSGi Core Specification optimized for mobile and embedded devices.1

PX4 — a flight control solution for drones, that also contains a Drone Middleware Platform, providing drivers and middleware to run drones 2

The datasets were generated by running a change coupling and structural dependencies analyzer, that is a prototype under development. The resulting raw data is available under the project_results/Proj_Name folder. Additionally, in the folder notebooks the user can find examples of how to easily query the functionality offered by the visualization and analytics libraries (in folder analytics).
