Research in computing and informatics incorporates diverse methodologies that reflect the interdisciplinary nature of the field. These methods span from theoretical and formal approaches to empirical techniques. Software engineering, human-computer interaction, data science, and artificial intelligence (AI) rely on both qualitative and quantitative methods to evaluate system performance, user behavior, and real-world applications. Choosing the appropriate research method depends on the nature of the research question, the goals of the study, and the context in which the investigation is conducted. As technology evolves, so do the tools and frameworks used in computing research, requiring scholars to be both methodologically detailed and adaptable. Research Methods for Computing and Informatics explores the various methodologies used to investigate, design, evaluate, and analyze systems, technologies, and user interactions within the fields of computing and information science. It examines both theoretical and practical approaches, including experimental, qualitative, and design-based methods, to support rigorous and impactful research. This book covers topics such as data analysis, digital technology, and ethics and law, and is a useful resource for computer engineers, academicians, researchers, and data scientists.
