Q2. What are the future works in "A systematic review of systematic review process research in software engineering" ?
The authors believe that further research is required in several areas:
Q3. What could be used to help construct appropriate search strings?
The papers also comment that automated textual analysis of the title, keywords, and abstract of known papers could be used to help construct appropriate search strings.
Q4. What is the general approach of studies proposing the use of text analysis tools?
The general approach of studies proposing the use of text analysis tools is to use a text analysis tool to identify words or phrases that describe individual articles and count the frequency of important words or phrases in each article.
Q5. What is the way to plan an automated search?
Based on current advice, if researchers plan an automated search using search strings (as opposed to a citationanalysis methods such as forward snowballing), the authors recommend searching IEEE, ACM which ensures good coverage of important journals and conferences and at least two general indexing systems such as SCOPUS, EI Compendix or Web of Science (P9, P23).
Q6. What is the way to extract data from cost estimation studies?
If tools are used to extract data from cost estimation studies, without considering whether the study has used an invalid metric (i.e. without appropriate evaluation of study quality), the extracted results may be obtained very quickly but will be wrong.
Q7. What was the reliability of the validation methods used in the study?
In addition, the validation methods reliability was only applied to studies that included a validation element (i.e. not simple discussion papers) and restricted to studies that were classified according to the categories indicated in the table.
Q8. What were the frequently cited motivators for doing SRs by individuals in the structured?
These issues were the most frequently cited motivators for doing SRs by individuals in the structured interviews (7 of 26 and 5 of 26 respectively) and, in addition, 80% of the 52 SR authors responding to a questionnaire reported SRs can unexpectedly bring new research innovation.
