Qualitative Assessment of Software Engineering Examination Questions with Bloom’s Taxonomy

Search Based Software Engineering: Techniques, Taxonomy, Tutorial

The aim of Search Based Software Engineering (SBSE) research is to move software engineering problems from human-based search to machine-based search, using a variety of techniques from the metaheuristic search, operations research and evolutionary computation paradigms. The idea is to exploit humans’ creativity and machines’ tenacity and reliability, rather than requiring humans to perform the...

Analyze This! 145 Questions for Data Scientists in Software Engineering Analyze This! 145 Questions for Data Scientists in Software Engineering

In this paper, we present the results from two surveys related to data science applied to software engineering. The first survey solicited questions that software engineers would like to ask data scientists to investigate about software, software processes and practices, and about software engineers. Our analysis resulted in a list of 145 questions grouped into 12 categories. The second survey ...

Dynamic Cognitive Process Application of Blooms Taxonomy for Complex Software Design in the Cognitive Domain

Software design in Software Engineering is a critical and dynamic cognitive process. Accurate and flawless system design will lead to fast coding and early completion of a software project. Blooms taxonomy classifies cognitive domain into six dynamic levels such as Knowledge at base level to Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis and Evaluation at the highest level in the order of incr...

Behavioral software engineering - guidelines for qualitative studies

Researchers are increasingly recognizing the importance of human aspects in software development and since qualitative methods are used to, in-depth, explore human behavior, we believe that studies using such techniques will become more common. Existing qualitative software engineering guidelines do not cover the full breadth of qualitative methods and knowledge on using them found in the socia...
