Seminar @ LERO/OU – Human Values in SE

Abstract

The study of human values in software engineering (SE) is increasingly recognised as a fundamental human-centric issue of SE decision making processes. However, values studies in SE still face several issues, including the difficulty of eliciting values in a systematic and replicable way, the challenges of measuring and monitoring values over time, and a limited practice-based understanding of values among software practitioners (and in general). This talk outlines our approach and the work done so far to address these issues, and to advance the study of values in SE and its use into practice.
