Additional information

<33> This was the first paper to confirm the repeatability of systematic literature reviews in Software Engineering. The paper found that two independent systematic reviews addressing a specific specialized question performed by two experienced teams (both in the topic and research methodology) had very similar results. Of 10 papers they agreed on 9 and overall came to the same conclusions with respect to the research questions. This work strengthens the case for the adoption of systematic reviews in software engineering.
