Background of the study: Open source software is an open-based software and can be accessed for free. This open source software is growing rapidly at domestic and overseas. Many criteria are used by users. In this case, the library Also, choosing the open source software they need. There are several organization that a accommodate Review these users of open source software in Indonesia. Some of the open source software is the Slims organizes community and Surabaya's Linux Community.Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the development and contribution of the community to libraries in Indonesia.Method: The method used is a qualitative method with a descriptive approach.Findings: The results of this study are the Open Source Community the which plays an important role in the progress of libraries in Indonesia, this can be seen from the number of school libraries that have implemented an IT in providing services to users by using open source software.Conclusion: The conclusion is the development and contribution of the Open Source Community in Indonesia is needed for the progress of the library in the future.

In open source software (OSS) projects, participants initially communicate with others and then may become developers if they are deemed worthy by the community. Recent studies indicate that the abundance of established social links of a participant is the strongest predictor to his/her promotion. Having reliable rankings of the candidates is key to recruiting and maintaining a successful operation of an OSS project. This paper adopts degree-based, PageRank, and Hits ranking algorithms to rank developer candidates in OSS projects based on their social links. We construct several types of social networks based on the communications between the participants in Apache OSS projects, then train and test the ranking algorithms in these networks. We find that, for all the ranking algorithms under study, the rankings of emergent developers in temporal networks are higher than those in cumulative ones, indicating that the more recent communications of a developer in a project are more important to predict his/her first commit in the project. By comparison, the simple degree-based and the PageRank ranking algorithms in temporal undirected weighted networks behave better than the others in identifying emergent developers based on four performance indicators, and are thus recommended to be applied in the future.

And Control

The automation of business processes and operations is a global trend. Automation is software or mechanical self-fulfilling process without or with a minimal human intervention and control. In specific processes and parts of the energy transport the automation is already happening. It can replace significant part of human labour or just to take and reduce the routine physical or repeating mental efforts of the jobs. Automation tools and systems in the energy transport are strongly dominated by open-source software automation tools. Therefore, a part of professional skills required before automation will not be useful in the future, but to handle automation trend, many new skills and knowledge will be needed by the human jobs of the future.

The Future

A survey of municipal government ICT divisions during and after the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami crisis reveals the need for creative responses to “beyond assumed level” disasters. Complexity and diversity of the damage were simply too great for any plans to assume. Resident needs toward municipal governments affected were also diverse and changed quickly as time went by. Our research also indicates that there would be ways to strengthen the capacity for effective spontaneous responses. Creative solutions executed during the 3/11 crisis were enabled by the existence of open source software available on the Net and by skilled engineers capable of exploiting them. Frugal information systems will be useful to improve preparedness for creative responses in the future.

Insight Into

If a person or corporation decides to use open source software for a certain purpose, nowadays the choice in software is large and still growing. In order to choose the right software package for the intended purpose, one will need to have insight and evaluate the software package choices. This chapter provides an insight into open source software and its development to those who wish to evaluate it. Using existing literature on open source software evaluation, a list of nine evaluation criteria is derived including community, security, license, and documentation. In the second section, these criteria and their relevance for open source software evaluation are explained. Finally, the future of open source software evaluation is discussed.

This chapter explores the motivations and methods for mining (collecting, aggregating, distributing, and analyzing) data about free/libre open source software (FLOSS) projects. It first explores why there is a need for this type of data. Then the chapter outlines the current state-of-the art in collecting and using quantitative data about FLOSS project, focusing especially on the three main types of FLOSS data that have been gathered to date: data from large forges, data from small project sets, and survey data. Finally, the chapter will describe some possible areas for improvement and recommendations for the future of FLOSS data collection.
