Evaluation Methodology for Software Engineering

Abstract

The topic of this research involves two categories of investigation. One centers on the methods used for evaluation in the various scientific disciplines. The PI is studying these methods, but the research is not yet to the point that a unifying paper directed to the software engineering problem can be produced. The second area of investigation is that of the software process and what can be evaluated with respect to it. In this domain, work progress through small experiments and conceptual studies. Considerable accomplishments have been reported for the first year of research. There is every reason to believe that this progress will continue in the remaining two years of study and that some unified theory for process evaluation will evolve.
