Publishing
I have authored more than 120 publications in the areas of empirical
software engineering, value-based software engineering, quality
management, and software management. I was lead editor for
the book "Value-Based Software Engineering" (Springer, September 2005)
in collaboration with my co-editors A. Aurum, B.W. Boehm, H. Erdogmus,
