Abstract
Some of the paper presented by the researchers in the field of software engineering are presented. The first paper, by Dowming Yeh, Pei-chen Sunm William Chu, Chien-Lung Lin, and Hongji Yang, is entitled 'An Empirical Study of a Reverse Engineering Method for the Aggregation Relationship based on Operation Propagation'. The paper addresses a longstanding problem when reverse engineering class diagrams: the automated identification of aggregation relationships. The second paper is by Matthias M. Müller and Andreas Höfer and is entitled 'The Effect of Experience on the Test-driven Development Process'. The authors investigate the impact of experience on Test-Driven Development (TDD). This quasi-experiment shows that experts produce better test cases faster, thus suggesting that TDD experiments involving novices are not likely to generalize to experts. The empirical methodology used in this paper should inspire other studies where the impact of expertise is an issue.
