Qualitative methods in empirical studies of software engineering
IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, 1999While empirical studies in software engineering are beginning to gain recognition in the research community, this subarea is also entering a new level of maturity by beginning to address the human aspects of software development. This added focus has added a new layer of complexity to an already challenging area of research.

Using Qualitative Data Analysis Software
Computers in Human Services, 1998ABSTRACT This paper provides an introduction to computer programs for qualitative data analysis [QDA]. Four software packages are examined in detail: ATLAS/ti, The Ethnograph, HyperRE-SEARCH and NUD4ST. These packages are applicable to a variety of qualitative research approaches used in the human service fields.

International Conference on Computational Intelligence for Modelling, Control and Automation and International Conference on Intelligent Agents, Web Technologies and Internet Commerce (CIMCA-IAWTIC'06), 2006
In this paper we present a qualitative graph-based formalism for the analysis and the envisioning of software based system dynamics. We first present the main difficulties of dynamic software analysis. Follow some results of a qualitative abstraction tool and some application examples.

Qualitative simulation of models of software evolution
Software Process: Improvement and Practice, 2002AbstractLehman's laws and the quantitative models based on them seek to encapsulate empirical generalizations about E‐type program evolution. Such modelling is hampered by insufficient knowledge about the mechanisms at work and their parameters. Qualitative reasoning is a body of work that handles a lack of precise knowledge by reasoning at a more ...

A qualitative analysis of software security patterns
Computers & Security, 2006Software security, which has attracted the interest of the industrial and research community during the last years, aims at preventing security problems by building software without the so-called security holes. One way to achieve this goal is to apply specific patterns in software architecture.

Software for Qualitative Research: 1. Prospectus and Overview [PDF]
Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 1997 In recent years there has been growing interest in the use of computers within qualitative geography. In this paper we review the types of software packages that have been adopted and outline some of their distinctive features. We discuss the intellectual and institutional reasons for the interest in the software and highlight the ways in which such ...

A Qualitative Investigation of Landmarks in Software Code Navigation
Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Compute and Data Analysis, 2018A large body of research is available on software clustering and many tools have been developed to assist software programmers to navigate and easily comprehend large software systems. However, minimal attention has been paid to the area of visual clustering to support code navigation.

Qualitative simulation model for software engineering process
Australian Software Engineering Conference (ASWEC'06), 2006Software process simulation models hold out the promise of improving project planning and control. However, quantitative models require a very detailed understanding of the software process. In particular, process knowledge needs to be represented quantitatively which requires extensive, reliable software project data.
