Main Topics:
The dataset is a tabulated set of responses to a questionnaire directed at computer professionals who utilise object technology. It was designed to extract information about current practice in the process of object-oriented development. The questionnaire was divided into six parts : General background. Project initiation : tasks. Requirements engineering : tasks, techniques and work products. Analysis modelling : tasks, techniques and work products. Design and implementation : tasks, techniques and work products. Respondents' details.
The sample consisted of persons/organisations expressing an interest in design patterns via the <
