This paper describes different methods used by the Software Engineering (SwE) Program to enable this collaboration and gives examples of the results obtained. The collaboration primarily takes the form of SwE knowledge transfer and deployment into industry and government through graduate education and sponsored research. This paper is a case study of the experiences in one small SwE Masters' program in the methods used to transfer research knowledge into industry, and in some cases, create new SwE knowledge. Examples of student papers and sponsored research topics are used as evidence.","PeriodicalId":293394,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE/ACM 2nd International Workshop on Software Engineering Research and Industrial Practice","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116062109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this short paper, we identify some of the primary reasons why this happens, based on lessons learned from long-term experience with industrial software development. It is argued here that the primary causes of project failures can often be due to (a) inadequate appreciation of certain factors that are traditionally deemed second-order or even irrelevant in research and (b) underestimation of the impact that these factors can have on the technology transfer itself.","PeriodicalId":293394,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE/ACM 2nd International Workshop on Software Engineering Research and Industrial Practice","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121697169","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Russo","doi":"10.1109/SERIP.2015.13","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/SERIP.2015.13","url":null,"abstract":"Static analysis is a widely adopted technique in the industrial development of software systems. It allows to automatically check for code compliance with respect to predefined programming rules. When applied to large software systems, sanitizing the code in an efficient way requires a careful guidance, as a high number of (more or less relevant) rule infringements can result from the analysis. We report the results of a static analysis study conducted on several industrial software systems developed by SELEX ES, a large manufacturer of software-intensive mission-critical systems. We analyzed results on a set of 156 software components developed in SELEX ES, based on them, we developed and experimented an approach to prioritize components and violated rules to correct for a cost-effective code sanitization. Results highlight the benefits that can be achieved in terms of quality targets and incurred cost.","PeriodicalId":293394,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE/ACM 2nd International Workshop on Software Engineering Research and Industrial Practice","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124913035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
