Challenges and Recommendations When Increasing the Realism of Controlled Software Engineering Experiments

摘要: An important goal of most empirical software engineering experiments is the transfer research results to industrial applications. To convince industry about validity and applicability controlled experiments, tasks, subjects environments should be as realistic practically possible. Such are, however, more demanding expensive than involving students, small tasks pen-and-paper environments. This chapter describes challenges increasing realism lessons learned from that have been conducted at Simula Research Laboratory.
