Experimentation in Software Engineering . F 4 RF 960 0 ~ AMINO " 9620

Experimentation In software engineering supports the advancement of the field through an Iterative learning process. In this paper we present a framework for analyzIng most of the experimental work performed In software engineering over the past several years. We describe a variety of experiments In the framework and dlseiss their contribution to the software engineering discipline. Some useful recommendations for the application of the experimental process In software engineering are Included.
