Abstract

We report here on the Eighth International Workshop on Managing Technical Debt, collocated with the International Conference on Software Maintenance and Evolution (ICSME 2016). The technical debt research community continues to expand through collaborations of industry, tool vendors, and academia. The major themes of discussion this year indicate convergence on a common definition on technical debt and its elements which drive the maturation of a research roadmap, demonstrating that managing technical debt is a mainstream topic in software engineering research bringing empirical analysis, data science, software design and architecture analysis and automation among other challenges together.
