MINT-Award Informatik 2016

We are happy to announce, that the master thesis A Platform for the Integration of Repository Mining and Software Analytics through Big Data Technologies by Fabian Trautsch was rewarded with the MINT-Award Informatik 2016. The reviewer awarded the thesis by Fabian Trautsch with an award for the best work of all submissions. The MINT-Award Informatik 2016 is awarded by the MINT-Initiative Deutschland, which is a nationwide initiative that wants to contribute to a positive attitude to MINT professions in the public. In his thesis Fabian Trautsch describes the design and development of a platform, which incorporates the mining and the analysis of software projects and present it with an easy to use web interface to the researcher. Furthermore, the platform is designed as a general-purpose platform and uses different big data technologies and frameworks (e.g. Apache Spark, Apache Hadoop) to make an efficient and fast analysis of the mined data possible. Fabian Trautsch was collectively supervised by Dr. Steffen Herbold and Prof. Rieck (TU Braunschweig).
