Title: Empirical Research within Software Engineering
Abstract
For my thesis work I analyze large collections of Helium programs
collected by the `Big Brother'-logger facility of the compiler. In science
this kind of work falls in the category of empirical research and is
useful to prove or to disprove a claim. By my thesis work I got a broader
understanding about doing empirical research and its relevance, which I
will discuss.
In my talk I give an introduction in doing empirical research focusing on
software engineering. Furthermore some useful methods will be discussed in
depth which are typically useful and relative straightforward to apply.
