- 2. PROMISE 2008 The 4 th International Predictor Models in Software Engineering (PROMISE) Workshop May 12, 2008 Theme: Bridging Industry & Research Much more data added to the PROMISE Repository Special issue Empirical Software Engineering Workshop expanded to 2 days 2 Keynote speakers More opportunities for discussion More opportunities for collaboration 1 New Steering Committee Member: Guenther Ruhe 1 Fabulous Dinner
- 3. Theme: Bridging Industry & Research The 4 th International Predictor Models in Software Engineering (PROMISE) Workshop May 12, 2008 Industry perspective To what extent does industry embrace research findings and models? Why is it not more? Is research relevant? practical? capable of application? ultimately beneficial? Are industry folks uninformed? lazy? too busy? Is the ROI too low? Research perspective Is SE research aligned with industry needs? Does it need to be or is it just a ‘tenure’ thing? Is empirical research unrealistic? Too specific? Too complex? Obsolete? How can models be validated? Correlation? Yes!! Causal? Maybe
