abstract: Includes data analysis and meta-analysis functions (e.g., to calculate effect
  sizes and 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) on Standardised Effect Sizes (d) for AB/BA
  cross-over repeated-measures experimental designs), data presentation functions
  (e.g., density curve overlaid on histogram),and the data sets analyzed in different
  research papers in software engineering (e.g., related to software defect prediction
  or multi- site experiment concerning the extent to which structured abstracts were
  clearer and more complete than conventional abstracts) to streamline reproducible
  research in software engineering.
