Free/libre open source software (FLOSS) ecosystems such as Linux
have had a tremendous impact on computing and society and have
captured the attention of businesses, researchers, and policy
makers. Research on FLOSS has been ongoing for almost two decades.
From an economic perspective, the most common topics involve
motivation and organization. As commercial participation in FLOSS
has become common, the question of how to combine FLOSS practice
with commercial practice has been the subject of research,
particularly with a view to understanding how to ensure
sustainability of the ecosystem. This book is based on a Shonan
meeting on FLOSS ecosystem sustainability held in June 2017. The
meeting brought together a blend of established and young
researchers who were actively studying the FLOSS phenomenon. These
researchers were drawn from a variety of disciplines including
software engineering, human computer interaction, information
systems, computer-supported cooperative work, data mining,
cognitive science, psychology, operations research, and management.
Industry practitioners who were active in the FLOSS space also
participated. This book presents the results of discussion on
fundamental questions related to the impact and sustainability of
FLOSS ecosystems, including: * How does an ecosystem form? How do
different stakeholders work together to form a community that
develops and maintains valuable and freely available software, and
how does an ecosystem with millions of repositories and developers
operate given the lack of centralized planning? * How does an
ecosystem evolve in response to the environment as technology and
needs evolve over time? * How do newcomers learn the protocols and
practices of an ecosystem? How would they sustain the ecosystem?
What is the relationship between people and ecosystem
sustainability?

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the
16th National Conference, NASAC 2017, held in Harbin, China, in
November 2017, and the 17th National Conference, NASAC 2018, held
in Shenzhen, China, in November 2018. The 6 revised selected papers
were selected from 17 submissions for NASAC 2017, and 5 revised
selected papers were selected from 20 submissions for NASAC 2018.
The papers focus on all aspects of software engineering, e.g.
requirements engineering, software methodologies, software
analytics, software testing and evolution, and empirical studies.
