This study proposes SW-Context, a model focused on defining context information for software, and storing this information in contextual history. The proposed model provides qualitative information concerning source code and design issues to support the daily activities of software developers, thereby improving their situation awareness. SW-Context was evaluated through a case study in industry, in which 12 developers used it to support maintenance activities throughout one month. After this period, all developers filled out a qualitative questionnaire, which was formulated based on the well-established technology acceptance model. The obtained results suggest that 67% of developers completely agree with the usefulness and ease of use of the SW-Context. These results are encouraging and show the potential for implementing SW-Context in broader software maintenance scenarios.

SW-Context：提高开发人员态势意识的模型

这项研究提出了SW-Context，该模型专注于定义软件的上下文信息，并将此信息存储在上下文历史中。该模型提供了有关源代码和设计问题的定性信息，以支持软件开发人员的日常活动，从而提高了他们的处境意识。通过一个行业案例研究对SW-Context进行了评估，其中有12个开发人员使用它在一个月内支持维护活动。在此期间之后，所有开发人员都填写了定性调查表，该调查表是根据成熟的技术接受模型制定的。获得的结果表明67％的开发人员完全同意SW-Context的有用性和易用性。
