Systematic Review has become an essential scientific method to research in Computer Science, mainly because interdisciplinary studies and scientific research in the Internet are demanding it.This work provides a further analysis on the subject through a systematic review in the domain of Computer Science, which was performed using scientific papers databases relevant to Computer Science, from the years 2006 to 2012.Our research has shown that 75.5% of the total number of papers are concentrated in the top 10 journals.Only 54.9% of the papers declared in the keywords that it was a systematic review, and only 75.7% declared it in their title.Additionally, our research has verified that 59.8% of the papers are directly related to Software Engineering.presented before.Consequently, it may be considered the continuation of our previous work [1].
