- The rapid pace with which software needs to be built, together with the increasing need to evaluate changes for end users both quantitatively and qualitatively calls for novel software engineering approaches that focus on short release cycles, continuous deployment and delivery, experiment-driven feature development, feedback from users, and rapid tool-assisted feedback to developers. To realize these approaches there is a need for research and innovation with respect to automation and tooling, and furthermore for research into the organizational changes that support flexible data-driven decision-making in the development lifecycle. Most importantly, deep synergies are needed between software engineers, managers, and data scientists. This paper reports on the results of the joint 5th International Workshop on Rapid Continuous Software Engineering (RCoSE 2019) and the 1st International Workshop on Data-Driven Decisions, Experimentation and Evolution (DDrEE 2019), which focuses on the challenges and potential solutions in the area of continuous data-driven software engineering.

- Software engineering needs a general theory, i.e., a theory thatapplies across the field and unifies existing empirical and theoreticalwork. General theories are common in other domains, suchas physics. While many software engineering theories exist, nogeneral theory of software engineering is evident. Consequently,this report reviews the emerging consensus on a general theory insoftware engineering from the Second SEMAT General Theory ofSoftware Engineering workshop co-located with the InternationalConference on Software Engineering in 2013. Participants agreedthat a general theory is possible and needed, should explain andpredict software engineering phenomena at multiple levels, includingsocial processes and technical artifacts, should synthesize existingtheories from software engineering and reference disciplines,should be developed iteratively, should avoid common misconceptionsand atheoretical concepts, and should respect the complexityof software engineering phenomena. However, several disputes remain,including concerns regarding ontology, epistemology, levelof formality, and how exactly to proceed with formulating a generaltheory.

Towards general theories of software engineering

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The special issue of Science of Computer Programming focuses on the theme of general theories of software engineering. A general theory aims at answering the big questions in its field. Ideally, it should be able to explain and predict important phenomena in the field. A general theory of electromagnetism should help readers to understand why one transformer design is superior to another. Software engineering may be considered by pondering the big questions that general theories of software engineering would address. The software engineering discipline also features a multitude of well-known specific theories in addition to personal general theories.

- We need to built software rapidly and with a high quality. These goals seem to be contradictory, but actually, implementing automation in build and deployment procedures as well as quality analysis can improve both the development pace and the resulting quality at the same time. Rapid Continuous Software Engineering describes novel software engineering approaches that focus on short release cycles, continuous deployment, delivery, and continuous improvement through rapid tool-assisted feedback to developers. To realize these approaches there is a need for research and innovation with respect to automation and tooling, and furthermore for research into the organizational changes that support high pace development. This paper reports on the results of the 6th International Workshop on Rapid Continuous Software Engineering (RCoSE 2020), which focuses on the challenges and potential solutions in the area of Rapid Continuous Software Engineering, before reporting on our discussions regarding the state of the practice and open research topics.
