Report from the 3rd International Workshop on Replication in Empirical Software Engineering Research (RESER 2013)

The RESER workshop provides a venue in which empirical software engineering researchers can discuss the theoretical foundations and methods of replication, as well as present the results of specific replicated studies. In 2013, the workshop co-located with the International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM) in Baltimore, Maryland. In addition to several outstanding paper sessions, highlights of the 2013 workshop included a keynote address by Dr. Mel Conway, in which he presented a \"45-Year Retrospective on Conway's Law and the Sociology of System Design.\" The workshop also featured a joint replication session exploring the results and methodologies of four research teams, who each studied some aspect of Conway's Law.
