Empirical research has become an essential component of software engineering research practice. In this book, a description of the steps followed in the research process in order to carry replicated and empirical research is presented. Readers will gain practical knowledge about how to plan and design experiments, conduct systematic reviews and case studies and analyze the results produced by these empirical studies. Readers will also experience the process of developing predictive models on data collected from source code repositories.
