En esta memoria, se presenta el trabajo de investigación llevado a cabo para aumentar el beneficio que se obtiene mediante la replicación de experimentos, desarrollando una propuesta que facilite la especificación sistemática de los cambios de las replicaciones y su documentación de forma homogénea. La importancia de especificar bien los...

Contexto: La replicación de estudios empíricos en Ingeniería del Software es necesaria para consolidar el conocimiento adquirido. No obstante, para incrementar el conocimiento que se genera mediante la replicación, es necesario que la información se publique de forma que permita una comprensión profunda del estudio. Objetivo: Al diseñar una...

Business process management (BPM) is a strategic advantage for all kinds of organizations, including information technology companies (ITCs), which cannot stay out of the BPM approach. ITCs manage business processes like projects to create and maintain software. Although Project Management Systems (PMSs), such as Microsoft™ Project Server®...

Cada vez son más numerosas las organizaciones orientadas a procesos que, para conseguir sus objetivos, necesitan modelar los procesos de negocio (PN) y evaluar su rendimiento. El modelado de procesos hace posible el control del proceso durante su ejecución permitiendo su posterior análisis y mejora. Un elemento clave para llevar a cabo esa...

Cada día crece el número de aplicaciones y servicios basados en la nube ofertados por proveedores tales como Amazon, Google o Sun entre otros. Además de ofrecerse el software como servicio (SaaS, Software as a Service), destacan los sistemas de procesos de negocio que se ofrecen a los clientes como servicio, denominados PRaaS (Process as a...

Mindfulness is a meditation technique whose main goal is educating attention by focusing only on one thing at a time, usually breathing. Mindfulness practices improve concentration and attention, being particularly valuable in demanding and high-stress work settings, such as those found in software companies. A family of five controlled...

The need of replicating empirical studies in Computer Science is widely recognized among the research community. It is essential to report the changes of each replication to promote not only the comprehensibility of the evolution of the experimental validity across a family of studies, but also replicability itself. Unfortunately, the lack of...

Context: In any discipline, replications of empirical studies are necessary to consolidate the acquired knowledge. In Software Engineering, replications have been reported since the 1990s, although their number is still small. The difficulty in publishing, the lack of guidelines, and the unavailability of replication packages are pointed out by...

Context: The Open Science (OS) movement promotes the value of making public the research artifacts (datasets, analysis scripts, guidelines, etc.) used during empirical studies. OS is widely known in areas such as Medicine or Biology, where the process of sharing research artifacts is subject to strict protocols. Unfortunately, in Software...

Context: The Software Engineering (SE) research continues to gain strength and interest for researchers considering the need to apply rigor and scientific validity to research results. Objective: Establishing an overview of the topic through a classification scheme of publications and structure the field of interest. Method: We conducted a...

Context: Software Engineering students are often excellent developers although they may occasionally encounter difficulties with certain tasks such as conceptual modelling, in which mental clarity plays an essential role. With several years of experience in practising mindfulness (a meditation technique that calm the mind to see with clarity),...
