Barbara Kitchenham

Barbara Ann Kitchenham is a retired British computer scientist and software engineer known for her research on systematic reviews in software engineering and on evidence-based practice in software engineering. She is a professor emerita of computer science at Keele University.[1]

Education and career

Kitchenham was a student at the University of Leeds. She received a bachelor's degree with joint honours in mathematics and statistics in 1969, and a master's degree in statistics in 1970. In 1972 she completed a Ph.D. through the Department of Mining and Mineral Engineering.[2][3]

She worked in industry as a statistician before joining International Computers Limited (ICL) in the mid-1970s as a systems programmer,[3] later working there on software metrics. After ten years at ICL, and two years as a reader in the Centre for Software Reliability of City, University of London, she moved to the National Computing Centre in Manchester in 1988.[4] Her subsequent affiliations have included NICTA in Australia, and Keele University.[5]

Recognition

Kitchenham's 2004 paper "Evidence-based software engineering", with Tore Dybå and Magne Jørgensen, was the 2014 recipient of the ACM SIGSOFT Impact Paper Award.[6] In 2019, the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Software Engineering gave Kitchenham their Distinguished Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) Leadership Award.[7]
