Resumo: Systematic Literature Reviews (SLR) have been widely used by the Software Engineering (SE) academic community to synthesize evidence and identify research trends and gaps in various research topics. At the same time, SLR have also aimed to support decision-making in the SE industry; however, one of the major challenges is still to provide truly relevant, applicable SLR results to industry practitioners. Moreover, it is still missing an understanding of who the involved with SLR and/or stakeholders are exactly. Objective: The main goal of this PhD thesis is to introduce the concept of social sustainability in SLR, particularly considering those reviews in the SE context. In the SLR context, social sustainability emphasizes generating knowledge that remains valuable and applicable to future stakeholders. For this, a specific goal was to propose a process named ipSLR to conduct SLR whose results are relevant and useful to the SE industry. Method: The research was based on four steps. The first step identified and mapped the needs and roles of stakeholders in SLR, resulting in a stakeholder model for SLR. The second step analyzed the relevance of including a subject of SLR in graduate courses, exploring the benefits and challenges of SLR for students and providing insights of what should be considered when new researchers (i.e., students) conduct SLR. The third step identified the benefits of counting on an SLR specialist during the SLR process. Finally, the fourth step proposed ipSLR, which focuses on conducting relevant and useful SLR to the SE industry. To validate this new process, we surveyed industry professionals to identify its adequacy. Results: This PhD thesis resulted in the inclusion of the concept of social sustainability in SLR, aiming to improve the relevance and usefulness of SLR for the SE industry and strengthen the collaboration between academia and industry. Conclusion: Conducting socially sustainable SLR can be considered a change in the mindset of how to deal with SLR that, ultimately, could lead to SLR relevant to the SE community, particularly industry practitioners.

Ao mesmo tempo, RSL têm também como objetivo apoiar as tomadas de decisões na indústria de software; entretanto, um dos maiores desafios da RSL é ainda fornecer resultados verdadeiramente relevantes e aplicáveis pelos profissionais da indústria. Além disso, ainda falta uma compreensão de quem são os envolvidos com RSL e/ou os stakeholders. Objetivo: O principal objetivo desta tese de doutorado é introduzir o conceito de sustentabilidade social em RSL, particularmente considerando revisões na área de ES. No contexto de RSL, sustentabilidade social enfatiza a geração de conhecimento que permanecem válidos e aplicáveis para os futuros stakeholders. O objetivo específico desta tese foi propor um processo chamado ipSLR visando conduzir RSL cujos resultados sejam relevantes e úteis para a indústria de ES. Método: A pesquisa foi baseada em quatro passos. O primeiro passo identificou e mapeou as necessidades e papéis dos stakeholders na RSL, resultando no modelo de stakeholders para RSL. O segundo passo analisou a relevância da inclusão de uma disciplina de RSL em cursos de pós-graduação, explorando os benefícios e desafios da RSL para os estudantes e fornecendo insights de como lidar com RSL quando novos pesquisadores (ou seja, estudantes) conduzem RSL. O terceiro passo identificou os benefícios de contar com um especialista em RSL durante o processo de RSL. Finalmente, o quarto passo propôs ipSLR, que foca na condução de RSL relevantes e úteis para a indústria de ES. Para validar esse novo processo, foi conduzido um survey com profissionais da indústria para identificar sua adequação. Resultado: Esta tese de doutorado resultou na inclusão do conceito da sustentabilidade social na RSL, com o objetivo de melhorar a relevância e a utilidade das RSL para a indústria de ES e fortalecer a colaboração entre a academia e a indústria. Conclusão: Conduzir RSL socialmente sustentáveis pode ser considerada uma mudança de mentalidade sobre como lidar com RSL; como uma consequência, poderia-se resultar em RSL mais relevantes para a comunidade da ES, particularmente para os profissionais.Biblioteca Digitais de Teses e Dissertações da USPNakagawa, Elisa YumiSilva, Anderson Yoshiaki Iwazaki da2024-04-04info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesisapplication/pdfhttps://www.teses.usp.br/teses/disponiveis/55/55134/tde-08102024-170406/reponame:Biblioteca Digital de Teses e Dissertações da USPinstname:Universidade de São Paulo (USP)instacron:USPLiberar o conteúdo para acesso público.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesseng2024-10-09T14:28:02Zoai:teses.usp.br:tde-08102024-170406Biblioteca Digital de Teses e Dissertaçõeshttp://www.teses.usp.br/PUBhttp://www.teses.usp.br/cgi-bin/mtd2br.plvirginia@if.usp.br|| atendimento@aguia.usp.br||virginia@if.usp.bropendoar:27212024-10-09T14:28:02Biblioteca Digital de Teses e Dissertações da USP - Universidade de São Paulo (USP)false
