Evaluation of Novel Approaches to Software Engineering

This

book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 9th International

Conference on Evaluation of Novel Approaches to Software Engineering, ENASE 2014,

held in Lisbon, Portugal, in April 2014.

The 11 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 58

submissions. The papers reflect a growing effort to increase the dissemination

of new results among researchers and professionals related to evaluation of

novel approaches to software engineering. By comparing novel approaches with

established traditional practices and by evaluating them against software

quality criteria, the ENASE conferences advance knowledge and research in

software engineering, identify most hopeful trends, and propose new directions

for consideration by researchers and practitioners involved in large-scale

software development and integration.
