A Conceptual Model of Software Engineering Research Approaches
2009 Australian Software Engineering Conference, 2009Co-Authors: Shayne FlintAbstract:A key motivation for undertaking software Engineering Research is a need to improve industrial software Engineering practice. In order to address this need, it is necessary to adopt an approach to Research that responds to industry problems and facilitates the orderly evaluation, adoption and continuous improvement of Research outputs. This paper proposes a simple conceptual model which can be used to describe, discuss and compare a broad range of Research approaches. The model is validated by using it to unify prior contributions in the area of software Engineering Research approaches and presenting a case study.

How software Engineering Research aligns with design science: a review
Empirical Software Engineering, 2020Co-Authors: Emelie Engström, Margaret-anne Storey, Per Runeson, Martin Höst, Maria Teresa BaldassarreAbstract:Background Assessing and communicating software Engineering Research can be challenging. Design science is recognized as an appropriate Research paradigm for applied Research, but is rarely explicitly used as a way to present planned or achieved Research contributions in software Engineering. Applying the design science lens to software Engineering Research may improve the assessment and communication of Research contributions. Aim The aim of this study is 1) to understand whether the design science lens helps summarize and assess software Engineering Research contributions, and 2) to characterize different types of design science contributions in the software Engineering literature. Method In previous Research, we developed a visual abstract template, summarizing the core constructs of the design science paradigm. In this study, we use this template in a review of a set of 38 award winning software Engineering publications to extract, analyze and characterize their design science contributions. Results We identified five clusters of papers, classifying them according to their different types of design science contributions. Conclusions The design science lens helps emphasize the theoretical contribution of Research output—in terms of technological rules—and reflect on the practical relevance, novelty and rigor of the rules proposed by the Research.

How software Engineering Research aligns with design science: A review.
arXiv: Software Engineering, 2019Co-Authors: Emelie Engström, Margaret-anne Storey, Per Runeson, Martin Höst, Maria Teresa BaldassarreAbstract:Background: Assessing and communicating software Engineering Research can be challenging. Design science is recognized as an appropriate Research paradigm for applied Research but is seldom referred to in software Engineering. Applying the design science lens to software Engineering Research may improve the assessment and communication of Research contributions. Aim: The aim of this study is 1) to understand whether the design science lens helps summarize and assess software Engineering Research contributions, and 2) to characterize different types of design science contributions in the software Engineering literature. Method: In previous Research, we developed a visual abstract template, summarizing the core constructs of the design science paradigm. In this study, we use this template in a review of a set of 38 top software Engineering publications to extract and analyze their design science contributions. Results: We identified five clusters of papers, classifying them according to their alignment with the design science paradigm. Conclusions: The design science lens helps emphasize the theoretical contribution of Research output---in terms of technological rules---and reflect on the practical relevance, novelty, and rigor of the rules proposed by the Research.

selecting empirical methods for software Engineering Research
Guide to Advanced Empirical Software Engineering, 2008Co-Authors: Steve Easterbrook, Margaret-anne Storey, Janice Singer, Daniela DamianAbstract:Selecting a Research method for empirical software Engineering Research is problematic because the benefits and challenges to using each method are not yet well catalogued. Therefore, this chapter describes a number of empirical methods available. It examines the goals of each and analyzes the types of questions each best addresses. Theoretical stances behind the methods, practical considerations in the application of the methods and data collection are also briefly reviewed. Taken together, this information provides a suitable basis for both understand- ing and selecting from the variety of methods applicable to empirical software Engineering.
