Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study was carried out to development novel technologies, methods, and tools to support software development based on histories of operations that software developers conducted on integrated development environments. Representative outcomes include:
(1) Experiment on repetitive code completion operations on IDEs and improvement of an existing code completion tool, (2) Survey on methods of recording operation histories and their applications, (3) Comparative experiment of understanding past refactorings with code edit histories and revision histories, (4) A method for estimating development tasks using operation histories, (5) Enhancement of an operation replayer based on operation history annotations, (6) Supporting program comprehension with code comments, and (7) Masking privacy-sensitive information within operation histories.
