Dissertation: The QDAcity-RE-RS Method for Creating Complete, Consistent, and Traceable Requirements Specifications (Dr. Julia Mucha)
Abstract: Resolving issues that arise in a software project becomes more expensive as the project advances. Hence, it is crucial for a requirements engineer to develop a complete, consistent, and traceable requirements specification (RS). To create such a high-quality RS, the requirements engineer must develop a deep understanding of the problem domain. In science, researchers […]

Research Paper: A Systematic Analysis of Problems in Open Collaborative Data Engineering
Abstract: Collaborative workflows are common in open-source software development. They reduce individual costs and improve the quality of work results. Open data shares many characteristics with open-source software as it can be used, modified, and redistributed by anyone, for free. However, in contrast to open-source software engineering, collaborative data engineering on open data lacks a […]

Research Paper: The Business Impact of Inner Source and How to Quantify It
Abstract: Inner source software development is the practice of using open source practices for firm-internal software development. Practitioner reports have shown that inner source can increase flexibility and reduce costs. Despite the potential benefits of inner source, there has been little research on its impact on businesses and their processes. To address this gap, we […]

Dissertation: Assessing Information Security Awareness in Organizations (Dr. Tobias Fertig)
Abstract: Several reports about information security incidents in the last years show that the human factor is involved in over 80% of attack vectors.

However, organizations require support […]
