| 2017 | Tim Menzies, North Carolina State University, USA “For his pioneering and meticulous efforts in the creation and maintenance of the PROMISE data repository. The PROMISE repository has had a tremendous and widely-recognized impact on raising the bar for rigorous and repeatable software engineering research worldwide.” |

When do changes induce fixes? (MSR 2005) Jacek Sliwerski, Thomas Zimmermann, and Andreas Zeller “Prior software quality research focused on flagging files with bugs, but the SZZ algorithm by Sliwerski et al. was the first work to focus on flagging faulty changes. By flagging bugs before they get into the code, follow-up research has taken a preventive role instead of a catchup role.” Honorable Mention: Developer Identification Methods for Integrated Data from Various Sources Gregorio Robles and Jesus M. Gonzalez-Barahona “For their pioneering efforts in mining social information. Such information has been the catalyst for many research efforts throughout software engineering.” |
| 2014 |
Preprocessing CVS Data for Fine-Grained Analysis (MSR 2004) Thomas Zimmermann and Peter Weißgerber “For clearly and engagingly presenting practices that stood at the core of early MSR approaches, thus lowering the entry barrier for the researchers worldwide to join this emerging field.” |
Starting 2015 the MSR conference recognized outstanding papers with ACM SIGSOFT Distinguished Paper Awards. Since 2016 there is no separate Best Paper award anymore.
