Multi-dimensional approach to bridging the gap between Software Engineering Research and Industry Practice

Abstract

The success of software engineering research can be measured in terms of the industrial adoption of methods and tools developed by researchers. Current adoption rates are low [6] and this contributes to a widening gap between software engineering research and practice. This indicates that there are some factors which act as a barrier to university industry collaboration. My research aims to explore ways to bridge the gap between university and industry using a multi-dimensional approach. Show more
