Michael E. Atwood, H. Rudy Ramsey, Jean N. Hooper, Daniel A. Kullas · 1979
As part of a larger Army Research Institute effort to survey, synthesize, and evaluate the state of the art in the area of human factors as applied to software development, a fairly extensive literature survey was conducted. This resulting bibliography contains citations of 478 articles or reports pertaining to the behavioral aspects of software design, programming, coding, debugging, testing, evaluation, and maintenance. Most citations are accompanied by descriptive abstracts, and all are indexed by author, publication source, institutional affiliation, and subject. To help the user unfamiliar with the area, the bibliography contains brief, basic reference lists in the areas of software engineering, the psychology of software development, the Structured Programming Series, and the DoD software program. Coverage is exhaustive through 1977 with a few references in 1978.
