Abstract

For the first time in more than four decades, the recent advent of the open source movement and the availability of service-oriented architectures has enabled researchers in software reuse to collect a larger amount of potentially reusable software artifacts. Hence, various communities have recently developed a new wave of interesting software and service search, retrieval and matching approaches. However, to date most of these approaches have been created independently from each other and are evaluated on proprietary data only. Thus, their performance is not easily comparable with each other (if at all). The goal of this workshop is to bring together researcher from the above communities and practitioners interested in applying the mentioned technologies in order to establish a common understanding of the challenges involved in evaluating software retrieval systems and a community working on solutions to overcome them. An important long-term goal is the creation of a reference collection with reusable material that can be used as a common baseline for the comparison of all kinds of software search, retrieval and matching tools.
