Mining Data from Software Repositories
One of the problems faced by the software engineering community is scarcity of data for
conducting empirical studies. However, the software repositories can be mined to col-
lect and gather the data that can be used for providing empirical results by validating
various techniques or methods. The empirical evidence gathered through analyzing the
data collected from the software repositories is considered to be the most important sup-
