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 ...

Synthesizing qualitative research in software engineering

Proceedings of the 40th International Conference on Software Engineering, 2018
Synthesizing data extracted from primary studies is an integral component of the methodologies in support of Evidence Based Software Engineering (EBSE) such as System Literature Review (SLR). Since a large and increasing number of studies in Software Engineering (SE) incorporate qualitative data, it is important to systematically review and understand ...

MVP and experimentation in software startups: a qualitative survey

2020 46th Euromicro Conference on Software Engineering and Advanced Applications (SEAA), 2020
The Lean Startup methodology disseminated the concept of MVP. Since then, the term has been used in several contexts aside startups with a blur definition. Practitioners name several artifacts as MVPs, such as prototypes or initial versions of a new product, rather than an instrument for experimentation.

The Determination Method for Software Reliability Qualitative Indices

2013 IEEE 7th International Conference on Software Security and Reliability, 2013
The determination of software reliability indices is the primary task in the software reliability engineering. The indices are taken as not only the basis for the software reliability design and the constraints during the software development process, but also the foundation of the software's acceptance. Software reliability indices are usually divided

Scientific Software Development: Qualitative background for a model

2018 37th International Conference of the Chilean Computer Science Society (SCCC), 2018
In spite of different scientific conferences and journals report software like research outcomes, til de moment, there are few antecedents about software life cycles for supporting scientific software development. As far as we have looked for, the software development methodologies in this domain are coarse grain ones, and there is no empirical ...

Qualitative simulation model for software engineering process

Australian Software Engineering Conference (ASWEC'06), 2006
Software 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.

Introduction: Analyzing Qualitative Data with Software

2019
The umbrella term “qualitative data” covers a wide variety of data types. Using computer software to analyze these various types of data is a relatively new area of methods development. Indeed, computer-assisted analysis of multimedia data—such as videos—has only recently come to the fore, thanks to rapid technological developments.
