Goals

Introduce methods and tools to:
  • desing, plan, and conduct experimentation (and empirical validation in general) mainly in the context of software engineering, but also in other disciplines of Computer Science;
  • perform data collection from all the different sources available during all the range of the software development lifecycle: text, software repositories, human subject observation (developers);
  • build statistical models based on the collected data from software products, software processes and experiments
