This course will be held as an reading seminar, where we will read and discuss recent papers in the area of Method Engineering. Each student will have to select a topic from the research domain of Method Engineering. This can be either one of the listed main topics or a subject of your personal preference. All topics will have to be agreed by the lecturers.
Literature for some main topics is listed on the ME wiki:
  • Creation Of Methods
  • Situational Methods
  • Comparison Of Methods
  • Method Increments
  • Knowledge Infrastructures
  • Method formalization
  • Method description
  • Tool support

In the first half of the lecture series we will discuss the topics in depth, where each student will be required to introduce the topics and summarize the discussions in main findings. We will try to establish some new findings through e.g. literature review or meta-modeling.
In the second half we will focus on the writing of a scientific paper. During several sessions the student is required to present and discuss chapters of the paper in writing. All students will also peer review the papers written by the other students.
The paper will be submitted to a scientific conference or journal if the quality of the writing allows.
Literature:Research papers. Titles will be selected during seminar.
