ABSTRACT: Despite preceding related publications, works dealing

with the resolution of software engineering problems by search techniques

has especially risen since 2001. By its first decade, the Search Based

Software Engineering (SBSE) approach has been successfully employed in

several software engineering contexts, using various optimization

techniques. Aside the relevance of such applications, knowledge regarding

the publication patterns on the field plays an important role to its

understanding and identity. Such information may also shed light into

SBSE trends and future. This paper presents the first bibliometric

analysis to SBSE publications. The study covered 740 publications of the

SBSE community from 2001 through 2010. The performed bibliometric

analysis concerned mainly in four categories: Publication, Sources,

Authorship, and Collaboration. Additionally, estimates for the next years

of several publication metrics are given. The study also analyzed the

applicability of bibliometric laws in SBSE, such as Bradfords and Lotka.
