Ajiromola Kola-Olawuyi, Master’s candidate
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

Supervisor: Professor Mei Nagappan

This study focuses on factors that may significantly influence the outcomes of CI builds triggered by commits modifying and/or adding DevOps artefacts to the projects, i.e., DevOps-related CI builds. In particular, code ownership of DevOps artefacts is one such factor that could impact DevOps-related CI builds.

Newsha Seyedi, Master’s candidate
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

Supervisor: Professor Ian Munro

This thesis delves into the exploration of shortest path queries in planar graphs, with an emphasis on the utilization of space-efficient data structures. Our investigation primarily targets connected, undirected, static pointer planar graphs, focusing on scenarios where queries predominantly start or end at a select subset of nodes.
