The dependence on quality software in all areas of life is what makes software engineering a key discipline for today’s society. Thus, over the last few decades it has been increasingly recognized that it is particularly important to demonstrate the value of software engineering methods in real-world environments, a task which is the focus of empirical software engineering. One of the leading protagonists of this discipline worldwide is Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Dieter Rombach, who dedicated his entire career to empirical software engineering. For his many important contributions to the field he has received numerous awards and recognitions, including the U.S. National Science Foundation’s Presidential Young Investigator Award and the Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany. He is a Fellow of both the ACM and the IEEE Computer Society. This book, published in honor of his 60th birthday, is dedicated to Dieter Rombach and his contributions to software engineering in general, as well as to empirical software engineering in particular.

Free Download Breaking the Silos: Exploring the Multiple Perspectives of Positive Psychology by Ofra Walter, Phil Fitzsimmons, Jonathan Kasler, Surekha Routray
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 291 Pages | ISBN : 9819750482 | 11.7 MB
This book offers a new look at well-being from a multidisciplinary standpoint. Research from industry clearly indicates that factors such as creativity, critical awareness, well-being, interdisciplinary understanding of positive psychology, and the ability to form strong relationships will determine the viability of organizations as collectively we enter the second half of the twenty-first century. Thus, a sound understanding of how these facets become melded into entrepreneurship, the workplace environment, and creative innovation is a requirement for individuals in the workplace. With a dearth of information about these facets as individual components and as a collective whole, this book draws these elements of overall well-being into a multidisciplinary focus. Thus, with chapters covering diverse fields such as philosophy, education, economics, mathematics, and medicine, the book offers a fresh approach to how positive psychology impacts entrepreneurship.
