Towards a Software Engineering Research Framework: Extending Design Science R...IRJET Journal
This document proposes a framework for software engineering research that extends design science research. It discusses how software engineering is a relatively young discipline driven by technical innovations and trends. While much research has explored solutions, fundamental problems still exist. The proposed framework aims to consider both research paradigms and the theoretical and trans-disciplinary foundations of software engineering as an applied discipline. The framework includes elements of defining the research problem, determining if the research is theory-oriented or practice-oriented, incorporating relevant theories and knowledge, and employing a design-build-test-evaluate cycle. The goal is to provide a model that integrates prescriptions from different research paradigms while accounting for software engineering's characteristics as an applied field.

1. Introduction
This assessment is an individual assignment. The assignment has two sections (Part A and
Part B): in Part A, you are required to write a scholarly academic article based critical
engagement with a chosen topic; part B focuses on critical discussions of key factors that
need to be considered for a medium-term corporate strategy.
Part A
Mobility plays a critical role in the way we live. Our food, clothes and household waste
all need to be transported, contributing to our economy and quality of life. Movement
of people from one location to another without traffic stress is critical to ensure the
quality of life to the people living in the city. But the increasing use of planes, cars and
other fossil-fuel dependent modes of mobility are causing more pollution, putting at
risk our environment and health. It can also be noted that the traffic accidents are
affecting the society indicating the need for smarter mobility. Cleaner and smarter
mobility/ transport can actually meet Oman’s need for mobility and at the same time
deliver many public health benefits, including cleaner air, fewer accidents, less
congestion and less noise pollution. Carbon-dependent transport sector can be turned
into a clean and smart mobility system.
The purpose of the task is to understand the significance of Smart Mobility, and explore
their connection with IS-IT strategy. Write a research article critically analysing IS/IT

Two technology trends in the workplace are increasing use of complex electronic health records (EHRs) and patients using smartphone apps for healthcare. The author discusses their experience transitioning between two EHRs - AURA which was less sophisticated, and EPIC which is more complex but customizable and allows greater communication between providers. Another trend is greater integration of devices and artificial intelligence into EHRs for automated data entry. However, overreliance on technology could replace sound clinical judgment, so nurses must use technology as a tool rather than a replacement for care. Patients are also increasingly using the internet and health apps, so providers should guide patients to evaluate online information for accuracy.

1. KNOWLEDGE ASSESSMENT SELF REVIEW (KA02 FORM)
KNOWLEDGE ASSESSMENTSELF REVIEW (KA02 FORM)Name of applicant: Membership
numberor date of birth:SECTION ONE – INSTRUCTIONS AND GUIDANCECarefully read the
following instructions and guidance. They are designed to assist you in providing in
providing a portfolio of evidence that best demonstrates the comprehension and
application of your engineering knowledge to Washington Accord equivalence.Section One –
Instructions and Guidance• Familiarise yourself with the definition of ‘complex engineering
problems’ (Appendix One) as you are required to demonstrate you can apply your
engineering knowledge to solve complex engineering problems.• Identify the ‘engineering
discipline and field’ (Appendix Two) you will provide evidence of your comprehension and
application of engineering knowledge in.• The knowledge assessment is based on
Washington Accord knowledge profile. This form is designed to capture information to
assist the evaluation of your evidenceWARNING: Having your Knowledge Assessment
written by another person or persons (this includes all hiring or use of any third-party
professional writers/companies to assist or complete your documentation) constitutes
unethical behaviour and may result in serious consequences including but not limited to: 1)
immediate rejection of the application along with the imposition of a stand-down period
before you can re-apply or 2) reporting of your details to Immigration New Zealand.Section
Two – Knowledge Profile• As you do not have a formal engineering qualification that
formally benchmarks to a Washington Accord accredited degree, it is essential that you
demonstrate that you have acquired an equivalent level of knowledge.• The Context and
performance indicators provide guidance on the evidence to be provided• Consider each
element of the knowledge profile, including the context statements and performance
indicators. Summarise key aspects of your knowledge under each element and how this has
been developed through academic study, on-job learning and/or continuing professional
development. It is important you use the performance indicators and complexity definitions
to enable you to describe your knowledge and how it has been developed.• When
describing how your educational program contributed to your development, focus on the
more advanced pieces of work you did, the knowledge you needed in order to perform that
work, and the abilities you needed in order to apply your knowledge in an engineering
context.• The word document is formatted to allow you expand a text box if required.•
Write your material in the first-person using ‘I’ or ‘me’ instead of ‘we’ or ‘us’. This makes it
easy for the assessors to see what your personal contribution was.Section Three – Evidence
of Application of Knowledge• Describe 3-4 engineering projects or activities (Work/Study
2. Episodes) that you have been involved with, which demonstrate your ability to apply your
engineering knowledge to solve complex engineering problems. Think of activities where
you have had to apply a high level of engineering knowledge – such as some analysis that
you have done, work you have done in scoping a problem and then developing a solution or
design. What engineering models did you use? What assumptions were made in the
development of the model and how did you test the model was relevant in the way you used
it?• For engineers with limited practical experience post-graduation, project work
undertaken during your study is likely to be one of the best ways of illustrating the
application of your knowledge. As well as projects conducted within university or college,
you may be able to draw on any industry experience required as part of the educational
program.• You are required to include actual samples of your work – calculations, analyses
or reports that you have personally undertaken – to substantiate your work/study
episodes.• Write your material in the first-person using ‘I’ or ‘me’ instead of ‘we’ or ‘us. This
makes it easy for the assessors to see what your personal contribution was.• The word
document is formatted to allow you expand a text box if required.Section Four –
Supplementary Evidence• You are required to submit a certified copy of your academic
transcript(s) (formal record of papers taken, and grades received) if you have not submitted
these to Engineering New Zealand already.• Summarise your work history but include a
representative sample of specific engineering projects or activities that evidence the
development or application of the knowledge profile.• Rather than listing all your CPD
activities, provide details of those activities that have extended your professional
engineering knowledge in your discipline and field and have assisted you to develop the
knowledge profile of a professional engineer. A summary of all relevant activities –
including those going beyond the most recent 6 years – will assist knowledge assessors in

(document and page number)ELEMENT FIVEKnowledge that supports engineering
design.ContextThe design process – the root of engineering – is the process of devising a
system, component or process to meet desired needs. Engineering design is a systematic
process that involves problem definition and scoping, research, analysis, option
development and selection, modelling to predict future performance, detailed design and
testing. Importantly, it also involves communication of the outcome in a way that enables

the role of engineering in society and identified issues in engineering practice in the
discipline: ethics and the professional responsibility of an engineer to public safety; the
impacts of engineering activity: economic, social, cultural, environmental and
sustainability.ContextEngineers design artefacts (facilities, structures, systems, products
and processes) that are intended to meet a societal need, but which typically impact on
individuals or groups in different ways. As a result, design and decision-making processes
must take account of often conflicting stakeholder needs. An understanding of this societal

some or all of the following characteristics:• Involve wide-ranging or conflicting technical,
engineering, and other issues;• Have no obvious solution and require originality in
analysis;• Involve infrequently encountered issues;• Are outside problems encompassed by
standards and codes of practice for professional engineering;• Involve diverse groups of
stakeholders with widely varying needs;• Have significant consequences in a range of
contexts;• Cannot be resolved without in-depth engineering knowledge.APPENDIX
TWODISCIPLINES AND FIELDS OF ENGINEERINGEngineering practice fields are loosely
defined terms and are used as an indication of the nature of engineering work carried out
by engineers practising in an engineering field of practice. The following diagram is a
graphical display of the relationships between the various fields and the four core
disciplines. Some fields may extend into other fields of scientific endeavour.AEROSPACE
ENGINEERINGAerospace engineering is the design, development, and production of aircraft
(aeronautical engineering), spacecraft (astronautical engineering) and related systems.
Aerospace engineers may specialise in aerodynamics, avionics, structures, control systems
or propulsion systems. It may involve planning maintenance programmes, designing repairs
and modifications and exercising strict safety and quality controls to ensure airworthy
operations.BIO ENGINEERINGBioengineering draws heavily on the Chemical Engineering
discipline and involves the engineered development of raw materials to produce higher
value products, using biological systems (biological catalysts). The description also
encompasses the general application of engineering to biological systems to develop new
products or solve problems in existing production processes. As examples, bioengineers are
found in medical research, genetic science, fermentation industries and industries treating
biological wastes.BUILDING SERVICESBuilding Services engineering is the application of
mechanical or electrical engineering principles, and an understanding of building structure,
to enhance all aspects of the built environment from air conditioning and mechanical
ventilation, electrical light and power, fire services, fire safety engineering, water and waste
services, data and communications, security and access control, vertical transportation,
acoustics and energy management.CHEMICAL ENGINEERINGChemical engineering is
concerned with the ways in which raw materials are changed into useful and commercial
end products such as food, petrol, plastics, paints, paper, ceramics, minerals and metals.
Often these processes are carried out at large scale plants. Research of raw materials and
their properties, design and development of equipment and the evaluation of operating
processes are all part of chemical engineering.CIVIL ENGINEERINGCivil engineering is a
broad field of engineering concerned with the, design, construction, operation and
maintenance of structures (buildings, bridges, dams, ports) and infrastructure assets (road,
rail, water, sewerage). The Civil engineering discipline underpins several engineering fields
such as Structural, Mining, Geotechnical and Transportation engineering, in which civil
engineers often specialise. General Civil engineers are likely to be competent to undertake
work that relates to one or more of these areas.ELECTRICAL ENGINEERINGElectrical
engineering is the field of engineering which deals with the practical application of
electricity. It deals with the aspects of planning, design, operation and maintenance of
electricity generation and distribution, and use of electricity as a source of energy within
9. major buildings, industrial processing complexes, facilities and transport systems. It
includes the associated networks and the equipment involved such as switchboards,
cabling, overhead lines/catenaries, earthing, control and instrumentation systems.Areas of
specialisation within the wider electrical engineering discipline, such as electronics and
telecommunications are usually concerned with using electricity to transmit information
rather than energy. For this reason, electronics and
radiocommunications/telecommunications are captured under the field of Information
Engineering.ENGINEERING MANAGEMENTThe Engineering Management practice field is
used by engineers who manage multi-disciplinary engineering activities that are so multi-
disciplined that it is difficult to readily link their engineering practice with any other specific
practice field. Project managers, asset managers and engineers working in policy
development are likely to use the ‘Engineering Management’ field.ENVIRONMENTAL
ENGINEERINGEnvironmental engineering draws on the Civil and Chemical engineering
disciplines to provide healthy water, air and land to enhance human habitation.
Environmental engineers devise, implement and manage solutions to protect and restore
the environment, within an overall framework of sustainable development. The role of the
environmental engineer embraces all of the air, water and soil environments, and the
interactions between them.FIRE ENGINEERINGFire engineering draws on knowledge from
the range of engineering disciplines to minimise the risk from fire to health and safety and
damage to property through careful design and construction. It requires an understanding
of the behaviour of fires and smoke, the behaviour of people exposed to fires and the
performance of burning materials and structures, as well as the impact of fire protection
systems including detection, alarm and extinguishing systems.GEOTECHNICAL
ENGINEERINGGeotechnical engineering involves application of knowledge of earth
materials in the design of structures, such as foundations, retaining walls, tunnels, dams and
embankments. Geotechnical engineers assess the properties and performance of earth
materials such as their stability and strength, and the impact of groundwater.INDUSTRIAL
ENGINEERINGIndustrial engineering is the application of mechanical and electrical
engineering principles to the design and operation of production equipment, production
lines and production processes for the efficient production of industrial goods. Industrial
engineers understand plant and procedural design, the management of materials and
energy, and human factors associated with worker integration with systems. Industrial
engineers increasingly draw on specialised knowledge of robotics, mechatronics, and
artificial intelligence.INFORMATION ENGINEERINGThe field of Information engineering is
based on the Electrical engineering discipline but also draws heavily from Computer
Science. Three areas of further specialisation can be identified:Software engineering – The
development and operation of software-intensive systems that capture, store and process
data.Telecommunications engineering – The development and operation of systems that
encode, transmit and decode data via cable systems (including fibre optics) and wireless
systems (radiocommunications).Electronics engineering – The design, development and
testing of electronic circuits and networks that use the electrical and electromagnetic
properties of electronic components integrated circuits and microprocessors to sense,
measure and control processes and systems.MECHANICAL ENGINEERINGMechanical
10. Engineering involves the design, manufacture and maintenance of mechanical systems.
Mechanical engineers work across a range of industries and are involved with the design
and manufacture of a range of machines or mechanical systems, typically applying
principles of hydraulics (fluid control), pneumatics (air pressure control) or
thermodynamics (heat energy transfer). Mechanical engineers may specialise in the
Building Services or Industrial engineering field.MINING ENGINEERINGMining engineering
involves extracting and processing minerals from the earth. This may involve investigations,
design, construction and operation of mining, extraction and processing
facilities.PETROLEUM ENGINEERINGPetroleum engineering is a field of engineering
relating to oil and gas exploration and production. Petroleum engineers typically combine
knowledge of geology and earth sciences with specialised Chemical engineering skills but
may also draw on Mechanical engineering expertise to design extraction and production
methods and equipment. Petroleum engineering activities are divided into two broad
categories:Upstream – locating oil and gas beneath the earth’s surface and then developing
methods to bring them out of the ground.Downstream – the design and development of
plant and infrastructure for the refinement and distribution of the mixture of oil, gas and
water components that are extracted.STRUCTURAL ENGINEERINGStructural Engineering is
a specialised field within the broader Civil engineering discipline that is concerned with the
design and construction of structures. Structures might include buildings, bridges, in-
ground structures, footings, frameworks and space frames, including those for motor
vehicles, space vehicles, ships, aeroplanes and cranes, composed of any structural material
including composites and novel materials.TRANSPORTATIONTransportation engineering is
a specialised field of practice in the civil engineering discipline relating to the movement of
goods and people by road, water, rail and air.A Transportation engineer might specialise in
one or more of: pavement design, asset maintenance/management, construction/project
management, traffic operations and control, transportation planning and systems analysis,
freight transportation and logistics, road safety, railways or public transport systems.
