Title: "Analyzing Software Engineering Experiments: Everything You Always Wanted to Know but Were Afraid to Ask" Presenter: Dr. Sira Vega, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Madrid, Spain Overview: This tutorial aims to help those working with empirical studies avoid common pitfalls when analyzing the results of software engineering experiments. The tutorial reviews key issues identified from published software engineering experiments, and addresses them based on the knowledge acquired after 20 years running experiments. |
Title: "Systematic Reviews and Maps in Software Engineering: A Tutorial" Presenters: Kai Petersen and Jefferson Seide Molléri Overview: This tutorial will provide training on (a) how to plan and conduct SLRs / SMs, and (b) how to critically assess existing SLRs / SMs. |
Title: "Academic Leadership" Presenters: Geraldine Fitzpatrick and Austen Rainer
Overview: We all lead in doing research & teaching. This tutorial will review the global context of academic leadership and the empirical evidence of what makes for good academic leadership, and provide practical opportunities to improve your interactions as a leader. |
