Abstract :
Finding and fixing software bugs is a challenging maintenance task, and a significant amount of effort is invested by software development companies on this issue. In this paper, we use the Eclipse project´s recorded software bug history to predict occurrence of future bugs. The history contains information on when bugs have been reported and subsequently fixed.
