Empirical Software Engineering in Industry Short Courses
"... This paper reports on a pilot project that incorporated small empirical studies in three industry short courses. These laboratory experiments were one component of a larger leveled study on the effects of test-driven development (TDD) on internal software quality. The approach is proposed to have pe ..."

Professional Status and Expertise for UML Class Diagram Comprehension: An Empirical Study
"... Abstract—Professional experience is one of the most important criteria for almost any job offer in software engineering. Professional experience refers both to professional status (practitioner vs. student) and expertise (expert vs. novice). We perform an experiment with 21 subjects including both p ..."

A Controlled Experiment to Evaluate the Effects of Mindfulness in Software Engineering
"... Context. Many reports support the fact that some psycho–social aspects of software engineers are key factors for the quality of the software development process and its resulting products. Based on the experience of some of the authors after more than a year of practising mindfulness—a meditation te ..."

technique aimed to increase clearness of mind and awareness—we guessed that it could be in-teresting to empirically evaluate whether mindfulness affects posi-tively not only the behaviour but also the professional performance of software engineers. Goal. In this paper, we present a quasi–experiment carried
Empirical Results from an Experiment on Value-Based Review

, 2005
"... As part of our research on value-based software engineering, we conducted an experiment on the use of value-based review (VBR) processes. We developed a set of VBR checklists with issues ranked by success-criticality, and a set of VBR processes prioritized by issue criticality and stakeholder-negoti ..."

Evaluating Methods and Technologies in Software Engineering with Respect
, 2012
"... Abstract—Background: It is trivial that the usefulness of a technology depends on the skill of the user. Several studies have reported an interaction between skill levels and different technologies, but the effect of skill is, for the most part, ignored in empirical, human-centric studies in softwar ..."

in software engineering. Aim: This paper investigates the usefulness of a technology as a function of skill. Method: An experiment that used students as subjects found recursive implementations to be easier to debug correctly than iterative implementations. We replicated the experiment by hiring 65
EXPLORING FEASIBILITY OF SOFTWARE DEFECTS ORTHOGONAL CLASSIFICATION
"... Abstract: Defect categorization is the basis of many works that relate to software defect detection. The assumption is that different subjects assign the same category to the same defect. Because this assumption was questioned, our following decision was to study the phenomenon, in the aim of provid ..."

of providing empirical evidence. Because defects can be categorized by using different criteria, and the experience of the involved professionals in using such a criterion could affect the results, our further decisions were: (i) to focus on the IBM Orthogonal Defect Classification (ODC); (ii) to involve

Many Dimensions: the Complex Picture of Student Encounters with a Computer Algebra System
"... We studied the complex situation of first year university students using computer algebra systems (CAS) for the first time as part of their mathematics subjects. We identified four components of initial experiences with CAS. Existing questionnaires were used to identify two subgroups of students wit ..."
