CO-CHAIRS

Pasquale Ardimento
University of Bari
Italy

Brief Bio
Pasquale Ardimento received a MS with full marks and honours and a Ph.D. from University of Bari. In 2005, he was visiting researcher at the Department of Engineering, University of Durham (U.K.). At present, he is an assistant professor at the Department of Informatics, University of Bari and his research is focused on studying bug fix time prediction models to predict the fix-time of newly reported bugs in order to help out the developer during the triaging process by prioritizing which bugs to fix first. He published more than forty papers in international and national journals, international collections, conference proceedings, workshop proceedings. He was involved in several national research projects and European projects and served as reviewer for many international and national conferences. He was also involved as web-chair in CSMR (Conference on Software Maintenance and Reengineering) 2006.

Brief Bio
Mario Luca Bernardi received the Laurea degree in Computer Science Engineering from the University of Naples "Federico II", Italy, in 2003 and the Ph.D. degree in Information Engineering from the University of Sannio in 2007. He is currently a senior researcher in Computer Science Engineering at the University of Sannio, Italy. His main research interests include software engineering (maintenance, testing, business process management, reverse engineering, software quality assurance with particular interest on internal quality metrics, software modularity, model-driven engineering), data mining and computational intelligence.

SCOPE

Recently the increasing request for complex software systems in the more diversified domains imposes a great challenge to deal with systems of millions of lines of code developed by teams of developers that are geographically distributed and need real-time information and interactions. According to this, from the Software Engineering (SE) community, an increasing interest is pointed towards the use of Computational Intelligence (CI) approaches to solve SE problems. CI can support the software development evaluating, controlling and predicting several important attributes of software projects such as development effort, software reliability, software fault-proneness and programmer's productivity. Such models, called software estimation models, can be built and exploited using approaches from the CI field to provide developers with effective supporting tools (e.g. IDE, recommender systems, code generation, quality assessment and automatic refactoring).

TOPICS

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Software analysis including Computational Intelligence algorithms for requirement traceability
  • Decision support systems based on CI techniques
  • Design and assessment of recommending systems applied to software repositories
  • Mining of software repositories
  • Software Modeling
  • Software quality prediction
  • Software fault proneness prediction
  • Software Testing and CI-based test case lifecycle management (e.g. automatic test case generation)
  • Software reliability prediction
  • Evolutionary Computing in Software Engineering
  • CI approaches for Model-Driven Engineering
