Abstract

Knowledge sharing is a key factor for increasing productivity of programmers and also in maintaining the quality of programs in companies. However, programmers tend to resort to outside resources for solving their problems. This paper proposes a system to facilitate active sharing of program related knowledge among a group of programmers in a company. The system introduces a flexible unit to define the target knowledge, defines a set of function tags to describe its functionality from a programming point of view, and a set of project tags to describe its environmental aspects. We illustrate the rigid structure and classification of the tags and how this approach can decrease the work load of programmers in registering and retrieving knowledge along with a few examples. In addition, a simple evaluation tests have been performed with an experimental implementation of the proposed system.
