对软件工程中经验评估的数量和质量的批评已经存在了相当长的一段时间。然而，此类批评通常不会经过经验评估。本文填补了这一空白，通过实证分析ICSE，软件工程的主要研究会议发表的论文。我们提出了一个准随机实验的经验评价在会议的生命周期的定量和定性的结果。我们的定量结果显示，经验评估的数量增加了超过29 ICSE程序，但我们仍然有空间，以提高ICSE程序的经验评估的合理性。我们的定性结果指出了经验评估中的具体改进领域。
Critiques of the quantity and quality of empirical evaluations in software engineering have existed for quite some time. However such critiques are typically not empirically evaluated. This paper fills this gap by empirically analyzing papers published by ICSE, the prime research conference on Software Engineering. We present quantitative and qualitative results of a quasi-random experiment of empirical evaluations over the lifetime of the conference. Our quantitative results show the quantity of empirical evaluation has increased over 29 ICSE proceedings but we still have room to improve the soundness of empirical evaluations in ICSE proceedings. Our qualitative results point to specific areas of improvement in empirical evaluations.
