Editor's corner an assessment of systems and software engineering scholars and institutions, 1993 and 1994

Abstract

This paper is the second in an annual series whose goal is to answer the questions Who are the most published authors in the field of systems and software engineering (SSE)? From which institutions do the most systems and software engineering published papers emerge? The first paper (Glass, 1994) in the series was published a year ago. The current study reports on the top scholars and institutions for the years 1993 and 1994.

The methodology of the study (including the journals surveyed) and its limitations are discussed later in the paper. This study focuses on systems and software engineering and not, for example, on computer science or information systems. The findings are as follows.
