In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Programming language
  • Software
  • Software engineering

Tom Mens focuses on Software, Software engineering, Software development, Empirical research and Ecosystem. His work in the fields of Software bug overlaps with other areas such as Order. He interconnects Software versioning, Lag, Software system and Software quality in the investigation of issues within Software engineering.

His Software development study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Test and Data science. His work deals with themes such as Representativeness heuristic, Software ecosystem, World Wide Web and Scope, which intersect with Empirical research. Tom Mens combines subjects such as Software peer review and Social software engineering with his study of Software analytics.
