Requirements engineering scenario based software requirement specificationWolfgang Kuchinke
Requirements Engineering – Writing the Software Requirements Specification (SRS). A CRI Group Workshop. The requirements engineering approach employed successfully in the EHR4CR process is shown and discussed in order to extract lessons learned and to use it for new projects.
Requirements engineering is the process of eliciting stakeholder needs and desires and develope them into an agreed set of detailed requirements. It serves as basis for all subsequent software development activities.
In general, a project begins with the requirement acquisition phase and ends with the specification of requirements in form of the Software Requirement Specification (SRS). Requirements specification may even be used to manage the consistency of the entire system.
Learning from the Requirements Engineering process in the the EU project EHR4CR. Especially the topics of Requirements Scenarios in the process of requirement gathering and the iterative writing and validation of software requirements specification (SRS) document can be applied to new projects. The Requirements Process consists of 4 steps: Requirements Elicitation – the art to receive meaningful requirements. Requirements Analysis – iterative improvement of quality of requirements. Writing the Requirements Specification document (Software Requirement Specification) and Requirements Validation - this is also done iteratively with several workshops.
Novel is the introduction of an iterative process for requirements engineering. Start with only a subset of software requirements, iterate the collection and validation until the full system is implemented. In each iteration, design modifications are made and new functional capabilities are added. Following tools for requirements gathering were used: Use Cases, Descriptions of current situation and workflow, Context diagram, Stakeholder interviews, Scenarios and Use Case workshops.
A novel scenario based approach for requirements engineering is being introduced: The domain scenario is used to estimate probable effects (situation analysis and long-range planning). The domain scenario is broken down into high-level "Usage Scenarios". Usage Scenarios describe critical business interactions and their anticipated operations; they serve as context for the use cases and the generation of requirements; they make sure requirements are complete.
Development of the SRS with involvement of scenarios: 1. Begin with Domain Scenarios; 2. Development of Usage Scenarios; 3. Software Requirements Specification document. Several round of change management were employed during writing the SRS. This possibility for correction and improvement ensured that the requirements are of high quality and applicability.

BECC Closing Plenary: EmPowering Storytelling with Interaction.
This talk was given by me at BECC 2023 in Sacramento in a session moderated by Beth Karlin.
“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Maya Angelou
The trek towards sustainability - truth, tale, or transition?Birgit Penzenstadler
This is the keynote given at the European Conference of Software Architecture, ECSA 2023, in Istanbul, Turkey. You may have heard about sustainability and the Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Reporting Initiative that now requires bigger companies to adjust their reporting in order to increase transparency. At the same time, you may have a funky feeling that there’s quite a bit of hot air and greenwashing going on around there. So how do we truly transition towards more sustainability? Why may we also want to think about more resilience? And what inner transition is required to make this big outer shift? In this talk, I give a brief (necessarily incomplete) overview of the last decade of sustainability research in and outside of software engineering and sketch a vision of what’s to come if we truly embrace a transition, and what may happen if we don’t.
Equality and equity - navigating the gender imbalance in informaticsBirgit Penzenstadler
Equity refers to fairness or justice in the way people are treated, and especially freedom from bias or favoritism, as in “governed according to the principle of equity.” Equality refers to the quality or state of having the same rights and opportunities, as in “women’s struggle for equality.” Women are underrepresented in Informatics at all levels, from undergraduate and graduate studies to participation and leadership in academia and industry. The main aim and objective of EUGAIN is to improve gender balance in Informatics at all levels through the creation of a European network of colleagues working on the forefront of the efforts for gender balance in Informatics in their countries and research communities.
Gender is most talked about in Sweden.
There are other dimensions, so I open it up a bit because the most vulnerable population is in the intersectionality.
We talk about recruitment and retention as well as various tools and practices to support this, and the big challenges on the way.
I'm still learning on this path, and here I share what I have learned so far.
Keynote at EclipseCon 2023: We have made it through a couple of intense years, with physical and mental health challenges. We know that we embed the values we hold into the systems we design, and these systems happen to run our world. Consequently, as software engineers and researchers we carry a special impact on society and the world at large.
Under stress we tend to disconnect from our values - e.g., when I am really stressed, I may have a harder time being kind.
That means taking care of our wellbeing and resilience not only ensures that we don’t burn out or bug out, but also that we develop better and more adequate systems to support a sustainable lifestyle.
This presentation combines research results from my sustainability over the past decade plus more recent research from the past 3 years in wellbeing and resilience, both of which we need to transition to a sustainable human lifestyle for the future.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.
Globus Compute wth IRI Workflows - GlobusWorld 2024Globus
As part of the DOE Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) program, NERSC at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and ALCF at Argonne National Lab are working closely with General Atomics on accelerating the computing requirements of the DIII-D experiment. As part of the work the team is investigating ways to speedup the time to solution for many different parts of the DIII-D workflow including how they run jobs on HPC systems. One of these routes is looking at Globus Compute as a way to replace the current method for managing tasks and we describe a brief proof of concept showing how Globus Compute could help to schedule jobs and be a tool to connect compute at different facilities.
Listen to the keynote address and hear about the latest developments from Rachana Ananthakrishnan and Ian Foster who review the updates to the Globus Platform and Service, and the relevance of Globus to the scientific community as an automation platform to accelerate scientific discovery.
Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

Why React Native as a Strategic Advantage for Startup Innovation.pdfayushiqss
Do you know that React Native is being increasingly adopted by startups as well as big companies in the mobile app development industry? Big names like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest have already integrated this robust open-source framework.
In fact, according to a report by Statista, the number of React Native developers has been steadily increasing over the years, reaching an estimated 1.9 million by the end of 2024. This means that the demand for this framework in the job market has been growing making it a valuable skill.
But what makes React Native so popular for mobile application development? It offers excellent cross-platform capabilities among other benefits. This way, with React Native, developers can write code once and run it on both iOS and Android devices thus saving time and resources leading to shorter development cycles hence faster time-to-market for your app.
Let’s take the example of a startup, which wanted to release their app on both iOS and Android at once. Through the use of React Native they managed to create an app and bring it into the market within a very short period. This helped them gain an advantage over their competitors because they had access to a large user base who were able to generate revenue quickly for them.
Enhancing Research Orchestration Capabilities at ORNL.pdfGlobus

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.
We describe the deployment and use of Globus Compute for remote computation. This content is aimed at researchers who wish to compute on remote resources using a unified programming interface, as well as system administrators who will deploy and operate Globus Compute services on their research computing infrastructure.
