Analysing socio-technical congruence in the package dependency network of Cargo

Mehdi Golzadeh

Abstract

Software package distributions form large dependency networks maintained by large communities of contributors. My PhD research will consist of analysing the evolution of the socio-technical congruence of these package dependency networks, and studying its impact on the health of the ecosystem and its community. I have started a longitudinal empirical study of Cargo's dependency network and the social (commenting) and technical (development) activities in Cargo's package repositories on GitHub, and present some preliminary findings.
