Abstract

For many years, Guenther Ruhe was a fellow of the International Software Product Management Association, playing an important role in shaping the academic and practical landscapes of Software Product Management (SPM). This editorial note honors Ruhe's enduring impact on the SPM Body of Knowledge, evaluating his extensive contributions to SPM research and practice, and recognizing his legacy in shaping the future trajectory of the field. By examining Ruhe's academic publications and his role in developing the SPM Body of Knowledge, we highlight key areas of his influence, particularly in release planning and requirements engineering. His integration of empirical research into SPM has notably enhanced the discipline's rigor and relevance. Ruhe's contributions to the SPM Body of Knowledge are profound and far-reaching, establishing his work as a cornerstone for ongoing research and practice in SPM.

期刊介绍： Information and Software Technology is the international archival journal focusing on research and experience that contributes to the improvement of software development practices. The journal''s scope includes methods and techniques to better engineer software and manage its development. Articles submitted for review should have a clear component of software engineering or address ways to improve the engineering and management of software development. Areas covered by the journal include: • Software management, quality and metrics, • Software processes, • Software architecture, modelling, specification, design and programming • Functional and non-functional software requirements • Software testing and verification & validation • Empirical studies of all aspects of engineering and managing software development Short Communications is a new section dedicated to short papers addressing new ideas, controversial opinions, "Negative" results and much more. Read the Guide for authors for more information. The journal encourages and welcomes submissions of systematic literature studies (reviews and maps) within the scope of the journal. Information and Software Technology is the premiere outlet for systematic literature studies in software engineering.
