Abstract
This article gives a structured overview of the field of End User Development, and its related fields of End User Programming, End User Software Engineering and meta-design. We have analyzed 93 papers from these fields that have been published between 2004 and 2013 in major and relevant journals and conference proceedings. The article discusses the methods, purpose and impact of the research that was analyzed, and points towards trends within the research community, as well as research gaps that need to be addressed.
