Abstract

Automated data collection solves the main problems associated with manual data collection, ensuring accuracy of data, non-intrusiveness, and low-costs of collection. However, automated tools mainly collect low-level data. Higher-level information, such as the start of working on a specific task, is still intrusively collected. To address this issue, we propose an approach to segment development sessions into task-related subsections. We will first describe the concept of the approach, the results of an initial validation study and then the potential benefits.
