Today, people increasingly try to solve domain-specific problems through interaction on online Question and Answer (Q&A) sites, such as Stack Overflow. The growing success of the Stack Overflow community largely depends on the will of their members to answer others’ questions.

The panel is available on YouTube: https://youtu.be/sE_jX92jJr8
Abstract: As software becomes more ubiquitous and pervasive in today’s interconnected and instrumented world, software engineering—as a practice and as a research topic—is having a hard time keeping up. In this panel, we invite FSE 2016’s participants to engage with five prominent software engineering researchers as they reflect on the state of current software engineering research and share how they each believe our work impacts (or should impact) science, society and industry. Our panelists will discuss whether our community as a whole is achieving the right balance of science, engineering and design in its combined research efforts. This lively and interactive panel discussion will also highlight new areas of research that our community should pay more attention to, as well as suggest new ways of conducting research that could improve the impact of software engineering research in the near and distant future.

SLE 2012 Keynote: Cognitive and Social Challenges of Ontology Use in the Biom...Margaret-Anne Storey
ABSTRACT: Ontologies can provide a conceptualization of a domain leading to a common vocabulary for communities of researchers and important standards to facilitate computation, software interoperability and data reuse. Most successful ontologies, especially those that have been developed by diverse communities over long periods of time, are typically large and complex. To address this complexity, ontology authoring and browsing tools must provide cognitive support to improve comprehension of the many concepts and relationships in ontologies. Also, ontology tools must support collaboration as the heart of ontology design and use is centered on community consensus.
In this talk, I will describe how standardized ontologies are developed and used in the biomedical and clinical domains to aid in scientific and medical discoveries. Specifically, I will present how the US National Center for Biomedical Ontology has designed the BioPortal ontology library (and associated technologies) to promote the use of standardized ontologies and tools. I will review how BioPortal and other ontology tools use established and novel visualization and collaboration approaches to improve ontology authoring and data curation activities. I will also discuss an ambitious project by the World Health Organization that leverages the use of social media to broaden participation in the development of the next version of the International Classification of Diseases. To conclude, I will discuss the challenges and opportunities that arise from using ontologies to bridge communities that manage and curate important information resources.
Analysis of StackOverflow posts/user data trend analysis. Predicting time to answer (classification) using Weka. CSCI599 final project on Social media data analytics
In this talk we briefly discuss some of our recent studies of Stack Overflow, a popular Q&A site targeting software developers. As opposed to studies of software artefacts discussed at Stack Overflow (e.g., APIs or programming examples), we focus on studying individuals active on Stack Overflow---who are they, what motivates them, and what affects their participation in Stack Overflow discussions.
Our findings indicate that Stack Overflow is no different from other communities of software developers in terms of gender representation but is significantly different from them in terms of gender engagement: controlling for engagement duration women and men ask and answer comparable number of questions, but women disengage faster. We conjecture that faster disengagement of women is the less pretty consequence of gamification mechanisms embedded in Stack Overflow, the same gamification mechanisms that provide developers with faster answers than ever before, attract numerous contributors and ultimately catalyse software development.
As an additional contribution we present genderComputer, a tool inferring gender of an individual based on her/his name and location.
The talk is based on the following papers:
* Gender, representation and online participation: A quantitative study, Vasilescu, B., Capiluppi, A. and Serebrenik, A., Interacting with Computers. 2013, Oxford University Press.
* How social Q&A sites are changing knowledge sharing in open source software communities, Vasilescu, B., Serebrenik, A., Devanbu, P. T. and Filkov, V., In CSCW, 2014, ACM.

Abstract:
Software development stakeholders require a constellation of tools to support their communication, collaboration and coordination activities. But poor tool integration can lead to gaps in knowledge flow, or worse, to an overabundance of shared communication and information. The software development community is witnessing the rise of "social bots" to integrate diverse development and communication tools and to address the challenge of information overload. A bot is a conversational user interface that can automate rote or tedious tasks. It may fetch or share information, extract and analyze data, detect and monitor events and activities in communication and social media, connect developers with each other or with other tools, or it may provide feedback on individual and collaborative development tasks. Some bots are emerging as important team members, providing support for individual and team task management and for the automation of dev-ops and customer support. However, the rapid adoption of bots and the platforms that support them brings possible drawbacks. Designing effective platforms for bots is challenging and bots may introduce alienation among stakeholders or lead to other technical challenges. In this talk, I will discuss the emerging role of bots in software development and describe some of the advantages and challenges that may lie ahead.
According to Altimeter Group research, the average enterprise-class company owns 178 social media accounts, while 13 departments—from marketing to customer support to legal-- actively engage in social media.
Yet social media— and as a result, social data— are still largely isolated from business-critical enterprise data sourced from platforms such as Customer Relationship Management, Business Intelligence and market research.
This lack of a holistic view of social signals in the context of other enterprise and external data can lead to partially-informed decisions, missed opportunity, and increased risk and cost, as the organization makes decisions without the benefit of critical input from external constituencies.
In this Altimeter Group research report reflecting input from 35 enterprise-class organizations and technology ecosystem contributors, industry analyst Susan Etlinger lays out an imperative for Social Data Intelligence, identifying key dimensions that organizations must understand, pragmatic steps they can take toward mature integration, and how successful businesses are already using social data in the context of other critical enterprise data to drive measurable value throughout the organization.

[PASS Summit 2016] Blazing Fast, Planet-Scale Customer Scenarios with Azure D...Andrew Liu
Data analysts, data engineers, and application developers are supporting unprecedented rates of change, whether talking about latency requirements to the expanding arena of data usage scenarios. While the technology functionality must rapidly evolve to meet customer needs and respond to competitive pressures, how can we enhance the data platform to help manage this unpredictability?
To help address these realities, data practitioners from a diverse set of backgrounds are increasingly relying on schema-free, distributed, scalable, and high-performance data storage (also known as NoSQL databases). In this session, we will showcase a wide variety of customer scenarios, business goals, and technical challenges faced by real-world customers. More importantly, how adding Azure DocumentDB into a data practitioner's arsenal within the Microsoft/Azure data ecosystem will allow you to easily solve these complex design patterns at massive scale.

This video covers the primary aspects of our charter, including the evolution of our API and Playback services as well as building a robust developer experience for the internal consumers of our APIs.
Deploy and Destroy: Testing Environments - Michael Arenzon - DevOpsDays Tel A...DevOpsDays Tel Aviv
One of the critical factors for development velocity is software correctness. Our ability to develop and ship new features fast is bounded by our ability to validate several aspects of the change: * Does the feature meet the requirements? * How does the feature affect existing code, and how can it affect the production environment? With continues codebase growth and new features being added, naturally our productivity decreases, and our need to improve the guarantees for quality and correctness increase.
In this talk, I’ll focus on testing environments: why developers need a self-serve platform to create a full functioning environment on-demand, how such environments should be managed, and how can one restore part of the lost velocity. I’ll cover an internal system we use at AppsFlyer called ‘Namespaces’ that addresses the issue with the help of Mesos / Marathon, Docker, Traefik, and Consul.
Apache Spark simplifies AI, but why not use AI to simplify Spark performance and operations management? An AI-driven approach can drastically reduce the time Spark application developers and operations teams spend troubleshooting problems.
This talk will discuss algorithms that run real-time streaming pipelines as well as build ML models in batch to enable Spark users to automatically solve problems like: (i) fixing a failed Spark application, (ii) auto tuning SLA-bound Spark streaming pipelines, (iii) identifying the best broadcast joins and caching for SparkSQL queries and tables, (iv) picking cost-effective machine types and container sizes to run Spark workloads on the AWS, Azure, and Google cloud; and more.

Andreas Grabner maintains that most performance and scalability problems don’t need a large or long running performance test or the expertise of a performance engineering guru. Don’t let anybody tell you that performance is too hard to practice because it actually is not. You can take the initiative and find these often serious defects. Andreas analyzed and spotted the performance and scalability issues in more than 200 applications last year. He shares his performance testing approaches and explores the top problem patterns that you can learn to spot in your apps. By looking at key metrics found in log files and performance monitoring data, you will learn to identify most problems with a single functional test and a simple five-user load test. The problem patterns Andreas explains are applicable to any type of technology and platform. Try out your new skills in your current testing project and take the first step toward becoming a performance diagnostic hero.
This session describes the architecture and implementation of an embeddable, extensible enterprise content management core for Java EE and simpler platforms. The presentation starts by describing the general architectural concepts used as building blocks:
• A schema and document model, reusing XML schemas and making good use of XML namespaces, where document types are built with several facets
• A repository model, using hierarchy and versioning, with the Content Repository API for Java (JSR 170) being one of the possible back ends
• A query model, based on the Java Persistence query language (JSR 220) and reusing the path-based concepts from Java Content Repositories (JCR)
• A fine-grained security model, compatible with WebDAV concepts and designed to provide flexible security policies
• An event model using synchronous and asynchronous events, allowing bridging through Java Message Service (JMS) or other systems to other event-enabled frameworks
• A directory model, representing access to external data sources using the same concepts as for documents but taking advantage of the specificities of the data back ends
Suitable abstraction layers are put in place to provide the required level of flexibility. One of the main architectural tasks is to find commonalities in all the systems used (or whose use is planned in the future) so framework users need to learn and use a minimal number of concepts. The result is a set of concepts that are fundamental to enterprise document management and are usable through direct Java technology-based APIs, Java EE APIs, or SOA. The presentation shows, for each of the main components, which challenges have been met and overcome when building a framework in which all components are designed to be improved and replaced by different implementations without sacrificing backward compatibility with existing ones.
The described implementation, Nuxeo Core, can be embedded in a basic Java technology-based framework based on OSGi (such as Eclipse) or in one based on Java EE, according to the needs of the application using it. This means that the core has to function without relying on Java EE services but also has to take advantage of them when they are available (providing clustering, messaging, caching, remoting, and advanced deployment).
The original human genome was sequenced over 15 years with a multi billion dollar budget. This talk describes how Ruby and Rails are helping sequence the next 1000 genomes in the next 15 months.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
