      abstract = {This book highlights recent research advances in various  domains related to software ecosystems such as library  reuse, collaborative development, cloud computing, open  science, sentiment analysis and machine learning. A key  aspect of software ecosystems is that software products  belong to ever more interdependent networks of co-evolving  software components. The ever-increasing importance of  social coding platforms has made software ecosystems  indispensable to software practitioners, in commercial as  well as open-source settings. The book starts with an  introductory chapter that provides a historical account of  the origins of software ecosystems. It provides the  necessary context about the domain of software ecosystems  by highlighting its different perspectives, definitions,  and representations. It also exemplifies the variety of  software ecosystems that have emerged during the previous  decades. The remaining book is composed of five parts: Part  I contains two chapters on software ecosystem  representations, Part II two chapters that focus on  complementary ways and techniques of analyzing software  ecosystems. Next, Part III includes two chapters that focus  on aspects related to the evolution within software  ecosystems, while Part IV looks at workflow automation and  infrastructure-as-code ecosystems. Finally, Part V focuses  on ecosystems for software modeling and for data-intensive  software. This book is intended for researchers and  practitioners interested in data mining, tooling, and  empirical analysis of software ecosystems. The reader will  appreciate chapters that cover a wide spectrum of social  and technical aspects of software ecosystems, each  including an overview of the state of the art.
