Prof. Washizaki will be Program Committee Co-Chair of CSEE&T 2017. 30th IEEE Conference Software Engineering Education and Training (GA Nov 7-9)

CSEE&T 2017 Call for Submissions

The 2017 IEEE Conference on Software Engineering Education and Training (CSEE&T) is taking place in Savannah, Georgia, in November 2017. Since the first CSEE&T, software engineering education has changed a great deal. In 1986, software engineer-ing education was largely undertaken by industry, with just a few academic software engineering programs in place. Since then, software engineering degree programs have emerged at all levels, and we are seeing increased attention to software engineering specialty areas. Software engineering professionalism initiatives resulted in the certification and licensing of software engineers in a number of countries worldwide.

On the industry side, we are seeing an upheaval in software engineering as we know it. Innovations such as cloud computing, autonomous vehicles, drones, bioengineering, and other initiatives have made for a rapidly changing landscape. Topics such as software assurance, safety, and reliability have become important knowledge areas. As educators, we are challenged to keep up with the emerging trends. We are in a global economy with a software supply chain that can extend across many countries and regions, and each one has its own regulations and laws about safety, security, and privacy. Software engineers change jobs fre-quently, so the value of in-house training is not as clear as it once was. At CSEE&T 2017, we will focus on the changes taking place in the field, discuss our response to them, and form a vision of how to move forward to meet the ever-increasing demand for qualified software engineers.

An Interactive Web Application Visualizing Memory Space For Novice C Programmers, accepted at ACM SIGCSE 2017 (CORE Rank A) as poster.

Ryosuke Ishizue, Kazunori Sakamoto, Hironori Washizaki, Yoshiaki Fukazawa, “An Interactive Web Application Visualizing Memory Space For Novice C Programmers,” 48th ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education (SIGCSE 2017), poster, March 8 – 11, 2017, Seattle, Washington, USA (to appear)(CORE Rank A)(acceptance rate 34.5% = 48/139)

The concept of memory management in C programming language is particularly challenging for novice programmers. Consequently, many researchers have proposed program visualization tools to alleviate these difficulties: for example, SeeC is one of the state-of-the-art tools for visualizing the behavior and execution status of C programs. However, three problems (P1–3) remain in SeeC, as well as in other existing visualization tools. P1 (Usability): SeeC requires many steps to revisualize modified source code. P2 (Capability): SeeC does not fully support dynamic memory allocation. P3 (Installability): novice programmers often find installation of SeeC challenging due to its dependency on Clang. We propose a new visualization tool named PlayVisualizerC (PVC) for novice C programmers, which provides three solutions (S1–3) for P1–3. S1: PVC reduces the steps required for revisualization. S2: complete support for dynamic memory allocation. S3: designed to be installed in the user’s web browser. From a small-scale experiment and a questionnaire given to 20 students, we found that a set of four programming tasks were solved 1.8 times faster and 24% more correctly using PVC.

IPA SEC journal 2017年3月号掲載予定 GQM+Strategiesによる組織目標と戦略の整合化および目標定量管理の実践と拡張

鷲崎弘宜、新谷勝利、青木耀平、志村千万輝、“GQM+Strategiesによる組織目標と戦略の整合化および目標定量管理の実践と拡張 – SEC WGおよび早稲田大学ゴール指向経営研究会の活動より”, IPA SEC journal, 2017年3月 (掲載予定)

IPA/SECにおいては2007年10月から、フラウンホーファー研究機構実験的ソフトウェアエンジニアリング研究所(IESE)と共同でGQM+Strategies(目標・質問・メトリクス+戦略)の研究に取り組んできた。GQM+Strategiesは、組織のあらゆる箇所や階層において目標と戦略を、定量管理可能な形で整合させ、改善させ続ける手法である。IESEの名称が「実験的」と冠するように、SECとの取り組みにおいて企業における複数回の実践を経て手法の洗練化が図られた。また、一般へと展開すべく、SECにおけるWG(作業部会)にて教材を作成し、SEC主催セミナーを実施している。さらに2013年4月からは、活動主体を早稲田大学グローバルソフトウェアエンジニアリング研究所・ゴール指向経営研究会に移行させて、さらなる研究、実践、教育・普及に取り組んでいる。具体的には、GQM+Strategiesにおいて作業成果の質が分析者の経験や観点に大きく依存するため、その改善と発展を意図した様々な手法を研究し、企業における適用を経て有効性を確認している。本稿では研究成果を中心としてゴール指向経営研究会の活動を紹介するとともに、システムズエンジニアリングの観点からGQM+Strategiesを解説する。なお、SECにおけるWG活動成果についてはSECジャーナルの過去の解説 [1][2]を参照されたい。
