INTERNET ACCESS IS A MINIMUM REQUIRMENT
Manually collecting data on sourceforge can be a tedious task spanning through days and weeks depending on the volume of the data under concern. This software, Okikisoft, was specially developed for researches. Okikisoft automatically and invisibly visits the pages of sourceforge to extract the required data. It compiles the mined data into CSV files and saves it in the application folder. Okikisoft, for instance, was able to mined 1948 software data ranging from March 1, 2013 to April 30, 2014 within 8 hours which with experience would have taken three (3) experienced workers 168 hours (7 days) to accomplish.
