Location: Seattle, WA
The 24th ACM SIGSOFT International Symposium on the Foundations of Software Engineering (FSE 2016)
What’s new with FSE 2016?
- The Research track will include Author rebuttal.
- The conference will include a strong focus on practice: The Showcase Track and the Industry Track will highlight and solicit state-of-the-practice, best practices, as well as exemplary applied research in software engineering
- The Demo track is now accepting data sets in addition to tool demos.
- The new Visions and Reflections track will feature radical new directions that represent disruptive innovations in the making as well as startling results and bold arguments on current research directions.
- We will focus on a unique conference experience: The new Mentorship program will connect you more efficiently with other attendees. Other initiatives to improve the conference experience will be announced soon.
- The Artifacts stream will collect and catalog reusable artifacts.
General Chair:
- Thomas Zimmermann, Microsoft Research
Program Chairs:
- Jane Cleland-Huang, DePaul University
- Zhendong Su, University of California, Davis
Keynote
Margaret Burnett
“Womenomics” and Gender-Inclusive Software: What Software Engineers Need to Know
Margaret Burnett is an OSU Distinguished Professor at Oregon State University. She began her career in industry, where she was the first woman software developer ever hired at Procter & Gamble Ivorydale. A few degrees and start-ups later, she joined academia, with a research focus on people who are engaged in some form of software development. She was the principal architect of the Forms/3 and FAR visual programming languages, and co-founded the area of end-user software engineering, which aims to improve software for computer users that are not trained in programming. She pioneered the use of information foraging theory in the domain of software debugging, and leads the team that created GenderMag, a software inspection process that uncovers gender inclusiveness issues in software from spreadsheets to programming environments.
Burnett is an ACM Distinguished Scientist and a member of the ACM CHI Academy. She currently serves on three editorial boards including that of IEEE’s Transactions on Software Engineering, and has served in over 50 conference organization and program committee roles. She is also on the Academic Alliance Advisory Board of the National Center for Women in IT (NCWIT).
