In his career, Zeljko Obrenovic has been doing research in both academic and industrial settings. This has provided him with an opportunity to experience both positive and negative aspects of doing research in practice. With this collection, he wants to share the lessons he learned. The central theme of the essays is the tension between the value of doing research in practice and difficulties that such work brings. Practice is rich and still hugely unexplored area, and researchers-practitioners may be in unique positions to witness or make important discoveries in many areas of computing.
