Abstract:
The rapid pace with which software needs to be built, together with the
increasing need to evaluate changes for end users both quantitatively
and qualitatively calls for novel software engineering approaches that
focus on short release cycles, continuous deployment and delivery,
experiment-driven feature development, feedback from users, and rapid
tool-assisted feedback to developers. To realize these approaches there
is a need for research and innovation with respect to automation and
tooling, and furthermore for research into the organizational changes
that support flexible data-driven decision-making in the development
lifecycle. Most importantly, deep synergies are needed between
software engineers, managers, and data scientists. This paper reports on
the results of the joint 5th International Workshop on Rapid Continuous
Software Engineering (RCoSE 2019) and the 1st International
Workshop on Data-Driven Decisions, Experimentation and Evolution
(DDrEE 2019), which focuses on the challenges and potential solutions
in the area of continuous data-driven software engineering.

Present-day software engineering combines technical and social skills, as well as collaboration among people with different backgrounds (e.g. due to global development
and outsourcing). In this paper we address the problem ...
Software engineering needs a general theory, i.e., a theory that
applies across the field and unifies existing empirical and theoretical
work. General theories are common in other domains, such
as physics. While many ...
In recent years, software engineering researchers have recognized the importance of the role of theory or SE research, resulting in the emergence
of the General Theories of Software Engineering (GTSE) community. This ...

Open Source Software (OSS) has become the subject of much commercial interest of late. Certainly, OSS seems
to hold much promise in addressing the core issues of the software crisis, namely that of software taking too
