On the Worthiness of Software Engineering Research
We reflect on the worthiness and impact of software engineering research and we observe that much of the research output by the academic community brings little value to SE practitioners. To understand the situation, we analyze the motivations behind conducting SE research, and the issues that prevent SE research from becoming more valuable and impactful. To address some of these issues, we pro...
متن کاملRepresentativeness in Software Engineering Research
One of the goals of software engineering research is to achieve generality: Are the phenomena found in a few projects reflective of what goes on in others? Will a technique benefit more than just the projects it is evaluated on? The discipline of our community has gained rigor over the past twenty years and is now attempting to achieve generality through evaluation and study of an increasing nu...
متن کاملSoftware Engineering Research in the Bazaar
During the last five years, our research group has studied the architecture and evolution of several large open source systems — including Linux, GCC, VIM, Mozilla, and Apache — and we have found that open source software systems often exhibit interesting differences when compared to similar commercially-developed systems. Our investigations of these systems have involved the creation of softwa...
متن کاملStatus of Empirical Research in Software Engineering
We provide an assessment of the status of empirical software research by analyzing all refereed articles that appeared in the Journal of Empirical Software Engineering from its first issue in January 1996 through June 2006. The journal publishes empirical software research exclusively and it is the only journal to do so. The main findings are: 1. The dominant empirical methods are experiments a...
