The case for knowledge translation (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Budgen, D., Kitchenham, B., & Brereton, P. (2013, June). The case for knowledge translation. Presented at International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement, Baltimore, USA

Context: For the outcomes of systematic literature reviews to be of use for practitioners, we need to develop models for addressing the needs of Knowledge Translation (KT). Aim: To identify some of the key issues that need to be addressed by a KT pro... Read More about The case for knowledge translation.

The cobbler’s children: Why do software design environments not support design practices? (2013)
Book Chapter
Budgen, D. (2013). The cobbler’s children: Why do software design environments not support design practices?. In M. Petre, & A. Van Der Hoek (Eds.), Software Designers in Action: A Human-Centric Look at Design Work (199-215). https://doi.org/10.1201/b15530

In terms of supporting so ware development activities, tools for supporting the so - ware design process are possibly one of the most challenging forms of application to create. Indeed, it can be argued that tool developers have o en preferred to pro... Read More about The cobbler’s children: Why do software design environments not support design practices?.
