The book "Métodos de Investigación en Informática", edited by AQCLab and the Alarcos Research Group of the University of Castilla-La Mancha, is now available on Amazon.

Métodos de Investigación en Informática, authored by Marcela Genero, Mario Piattini and José A. Cruz-Lemus from the Alarcos Group, together with Óscar Díez from UPV, presents in a clear and precise way the main research methods applicable in computer science, showing concrete examples of their application, making known the main problems in their use, as well as the resources that can help to a more effective use of these methods; all of this with the intention of increasing the quality of the research that is carried out in computer engineering and that allows to promote the transfer of technology in this field.

In recent years, a series of guidelines and techniques have been developed within Computer Engineering that allow research to be carried out in a rigorous manner. On the other hand, organisations have realised the need to experimentally test many beliefs and new techniques that are proposed in different fields of computer science. Therefore, this book addresses the main primary research techniques (surveys, experiments, case studies, action research, and design science) as well as systematic literature reviews and models of collaboration between academia and industry.

You can purchase the book on Amazon, both as a Kindle version and as a softcover print edition.
