SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: From operational data to business insights
DESCRIPTION:From operational data to business insights: It’s as much about mindset as it is about data \nSpeaker: Iris Figalist (works as a Platform & Data Architect at Siemens\, Munich and is also an industrial PhD student. \nAbstract: “It’s all about data” has become a common saying to strengthen the power it has in today’s world. Many software-intensive companies have started to collect operational data of their products deployed in production. However\, this data is not worth anything if you cannot make actual use of it. This talk covers our experiences and challenges at Siemens in using operational data to generate insights for business functions like product management or sales. A few real-world examples will be shared to highlight the technical and B2B-specific challenges as well as the collaboration and communication with business stakeholders.

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Test Case Selection In The Presence of Class Noise: A Controlled Experiment
DESCRIPTION:Theme 3 (Metrics) invites to the next brown bag seminar about the machine learning-related topics. This week we have Khaled Al-Sabbagh presenting his work on the reduction of class noise. \nMachine learning models have been increasingly used to support decision making in software engineering tasks. One example of its application is the optimization of test case selection in continuous integration. Among the challenges that hinders the application of machine learning is the amount of noise that comes in the data\, which often leads to a decrease in classification performances. For this reason\, we examine the impact of one type of noise\, called class noise\, on a learner’s ability for selecting test cases. Understanding the impact of class noise on the performance of a learner for test case selection would assist testers decide on the appropriateness of different noise handling strategies. The results show a statistically significant relationship between class noise and the learner’s performance for test case selection. We conclude that higher class noise in training data leads to missing out more tests in the predicted subset of test suite and increases the rate of false alarms when the level of class noise exceeds 30%. \nLink to the recorded presentation on YouTube:\nhttps://youtu.be/wua_v-K-z34 \n

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: "Towards SysML v2 - Should you be worried about technical debt?"
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Antonio Cicchetti\, Mälardalen University \nDescription: SysML is a language devoted to system modelling\, suitable for tackling the challenges of modern industrial systems development. Currently\, a new version is about to be standardized\, SysML v2. This new version contains a lot of relevant features\, but required a complete redesign with respect to previous versions. In this presentation we introduce some key novelties of SysML v2 and then discuss what users can expect as side effects due to migration from older versions to the new one. \nLink to the recorded presentation >> \nLink to presentation slides >>

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Checking the Checkers - Empirical Evaluation of Static Analysis Tools on Testware
DESCRIPTION:Software systems are typically divided into production code and test-related code\, which have been held to different standards w.r.t. enforcing their respective quality. In recent years\, test code quality issues have gained traction\, for instance in their relationship to test flakiness. During discussions with industry\, despite access to several types of static analysis tools\, these are not generally applied to tests with regularity. \nIn this ongoing work\, we investigate a set of existing static analysis tools applied on test code (test framework and test cases)\, for the purpose of analyzing their suitability for discovering issues in test code. We will present the evaluation framework and some early findings from open-source projects. \nSpeaker: Jean Malm\, MdH \nLink to the recorded presentation >>

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Supporting Migration of Software to Heterogeneous Platforms
DESCRIPTION:You are very welcome to the March 8 brownbag seminar organized by the AI engineering theme in Software Center. This time our speaker is Hugo Sica de Andrade. \nAbstract:\nThe requirements for performance continue to increase in computer systems across several domains. Particularly in artificial intelligence applications\, several workloads require large amounts of memory\, parallel computing\, and low-precision computation. One of the most prominent ways of fulfilling these performance requirements is through heterogeneous computing\, i.e.\, using hardware containing more than one type of processor\, such as a combination of CPUs\, GPUs and FPGAs. This approach has shown to deliver faster execution times and lower energy consumption in several different domains by allowing data to be assigned to processors that are specialized in them. \nAdopting this technology\, however\, requires several changes to a software engineering process that is originally implemented for execution on CPUs. In addition to changes in the code\, which must be refactored targeting hardware architectures are inherently different\, there is a variety of aspects that must be observed in order to successfully deploy the solution on heterogeneous platforms. \nThis talk presents the studies we conducted in both academia and industrial contexts in the topic of software engineering for heterogeneous platforms. First\, we introduce the concerns and the existing approaches in academia to implement the technology. Then\, we discuss the challenges identified in industry in migrating CPU-targeted software to heterogeneous platforms. Finally\, we propose a decision framework that guides engineers in the process of migrating software to heterogeneous platforms. \nLink to the recorded presentation >> \n

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Bird\, fish or in between: Value modeling as a technique to help you align your business KPIs
DESCRIPTION:Most welcome to next week’s Brown Bag seminar (March 1st) hosted by Software Center theme 4: ‘Customer Data and Ecosystem Driven Development’. \nOur speaker is Helena H. Olsson\, Malmö University. \n  \nTitle: “Bird\, fish or in between: Value modeling as a technique to help you align your business KPIs”\n \nAbstract:\n \nData driven and experimental development practices provide effective means for companies to adopt a customer and market-centric way-of-working. In online companies\, controlled experimentation is the primary technique to measure how customers respond to variants of deployed software. Over the recent years\, and due to increasing connectivity and data collection from products in the field\, these practices are being adopted also in software-intensive embedded systems companies. In these companies\, experiments are run on selected instances of the system or as comparisons of previously computed data to ensure value delivery to customers\, to improve quality and to explore new value propositions. \nHowever\, to utilize the benefits of data-driven and experimental development practices\, companies need to define what value factors to optimize for. What is it really you seek to improve? And how do we ensure that what teams do at a feature level aligns with\, and contributes to\, the overall business goals we seek to achieve? For highly complex embedded systems with thousands of parameters\, and with people at different levels in the organization having different opinions about the value of features\, this has proven to be a very challenging task. \nThis talk presents our research on how value modeling helps identify and align feature\, system and business KPIs in an organization. In addition\, it describes the scope of value modeling and the purposes for which the technique can be effectively used. Finally\, the talk identifies the key challenges that companies experience and that we seek to address in our on-going research on this topic. \nMost welcome and please help us share this invite with your colleagues!\n \nRegards\, \nHelena \n  \n\nMicrosoft Teams meeting\n\nJoin on your computer or mobile app\nClick here to join the meeting\nLearn More | Meeting options

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: “There\, but what about Back Again? – Propagating manual modifications from generated code to the design model”
DESCRIPTION:Title: “There\, but what about Back Again? – Propagating manual modifications from generated code to the design model” \nSpeaker: Robbert Jongeling\, MDH \nAbstract:\nIn one of its forms\, model-based development brings the benefit of complete code generation from design models. The generated code may be subject to manual changes for several reasons\, such as fixing errors after code-level testing\, or adjusting the code for different variants of targeted hardware. As a consequence of these manual changes\, the consistency between the design model and code is likely lost. To ensure the maintainability of the model and code\, this consistency must be restored. In particular\, the manual changes to the generated code must be reflected in the design model too\, i.e.\, the model-code round-trip should be completed. In this talk\, we share our experiences of developing an approach and implementing a prototype solution for completing a model-code round-trip in an industrial setting where code generation is already established. \nLink to the recorded presentations >>

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Optimized Scheduling of Feature-Based Test Execution
DESCRIPTION:As test suites grow larger and more complex\, the time and resources required to execute the test suite also grows accordingly. This is particularly true for companies developing diverse product lines\, who must execute portions of the test suite on compatible hardware units with the features required by those test cases. We have recently begun to explore the topic of how to efficiently parallelize the execution of test cases across a pool of available hardware units. We propose a search-based test scheduling method that attempts to optimize the estimated execution time and utilization of the hardware pool. In this talk\, we will present our initial ideas\, the results from an early pilot study\, and our plans to integrate this approach into the test execution infrastructure at a Software Center partner company. \nSpeaker: Gregory Gay \nSlides \nAudio file

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Privacy-aware machine learning method: Federated Learning
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Hongyi Zhang\, PhD student\, Chalmers \nFederated Learning is an improved Machine Learning approach which enables edge devices to collaboratively learn a shared machine learning model. The data exchanged between the edge and central server are no longer user data but the updated model weights. Furthermore\, as this model training method is distributed\, there are chances to make the model become smarter and adapt to their environment. (For example\, devices in Malmö and Stockholm can have slightly different models based on their unique environment.) Due to the rapid increase of data collected on the edge\, it will become more expensive to gather data into a centralized server or cloud. Machine learning with distributed edge training will be the main approach for future AI engineering. This is also why Federated Learning is essential to industries. \nAdvantages of Federated Learning: \n\nPrivacy-Preserving\nNo need to send training data to a cloud or single server\nFast model deployment and evolution\nLow latency and efficient bandwidth utilization\n\nThere is a classic deployment from Google\, where they deployed Federated Learning in Gboard (A Mobile App) to collaboratively train models for improving keyboard query and predicting emoji. \nIn the software center\, we made close collaboration with industries. With Volvo Cars\, we validated Federated Learning in various industrial cases\, such as steering wheel angle prediction\, objective recognition\, etc. We have proved the efficiency of FL and further improved the technique by introducing asynchronous protocols for heterogeneous hardware settings in real-world cases. With Sahlgrenska University Hospital\, we are trying to help them estimate their resource allocation in a distributed manner and investigate the methods to continuously enhance the data privacy and security when applying machine learning in the medical health care field. \nAs the next step of our research\, we would like to investigate the possibility of Federated Learning with various industrial scenarios. We will try to adding autonomously improving mechanism into participated nodes to enhance the model quality and node autonomy. We are eager to collaborate with companies to help them accelerate and improve system autonomy of their machine learning procedure. \n__________________________________________________ \nMicrosoft Teams meeting \nJoin on your computer or mobile app\n \nClick here to join the meeting \n

SUMMARY:Sprint 20 kick-off workshop for project 5 and 9
DESCRIPTION:Most welcome to the sprint 20 kick-off workshop for project 5 (‘Accelerating Digitalization Through Data’) and project 9 (‘Strategic Ecosystem Driven R&D Management’). \nIn both projects\, we have had very rewarding collaborations and a number of different research activities related to digital transformation and the implications of this. As two primary topics of interest\, we explored digital business models and data monetization. In addition\, we complemented our work on value modeling of features and products with the topic of business agility. We presented ‘Business Agility 2.0’ and what we see companies need in order to achieve continuous delivery and improvement of value. \nIn addition to the research project activities\, we organized three PdM community workshops on topics closely related to the research projects. In sprint 20\, we plan to continue this workshop series and we will share separate invites for these. \nFor the sprint kick-off\, we plan a two-hour workshop were we present each project and the activities we plan for sprint 20. For each project\, and after a short project presentation\, we engage in a group discussion where we also look to identify those companies that are interested in active participation and collaboration during the sprint. \nAgenda: \n\n11:00 – 12:00: Project 5 (‘Accelerating Digitalization Through Data’)\n12:00 – 13:00: Project 9 (‘Strategic Ecosystem Driven R&D Management’)\n\nYou are most welcome to the workshop and we also ask you to please help us forward this invite to colleagues that you think might have an interest in one or both of these projects. You can join for the full workshop or only dial in for one of the projects. The workshop is virtual and the Microsoft Teams link can be found in the end of this invite. \nWe look forward to see you and to kick off what we hope will be another great sprint. \nFor any questions\, please contact helena.holmstrom.olsson@mau.se  \nLink to the meeting in MS Teams

SUMMARY:Cybersecurity standards and their industry applications – A telecom industry example
DESCRIPTION:The mobile networks are playing a central role in our society by serving close to 8 billion subscriptions worldwide.  These networks are parts of national critical infrastructure in many countries. Security is an important aspect for these networks where a minor interruption may result in major impacts on individuals\, governments\, and organizations.  \nSecurity standards are one of the existing approaches to protect mobile networks and their users through commonly agreed\, tested\, verified\, and updated solutions according to best common practices.  \nNational Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Cyber Security Framework and the ISO 27001 Information Security Standard are two of existing standards having industry-leading approaches to security. \nIn this seminar\, we will go through these two standards and provide a high-level comparison between them\, an overview of how they can be used by vendors\, and an example application to mobile networks \nSpeaker: Shanai Ardi\, Ericsson and PhD student at Linköping university \nThis is an open lunch seminar that is not within any SWC project\, but might be of interest to some of the members.

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: "For a few dollars more... we forgot our process"
DESCRIPTION:Title: “For a few dollars more… we forgot our process” \nSpeaker: Antonio Martini \nDescription: Process improvement might be down-prioritized exactly like software quality. Besides the well-known Technical Debt\, we should also pay attention to possibly dangerous Process Debt. In this talk I’ll introduce the concept and share a few interesting findings for the first investigation with the software center companies. \nLink to the recorded presentation >>

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Exploring the cognitive processes used by testers
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the last brown-bag seminar of 2020! \nTitle: Exploring the cognitive processes used by testers \nAbstract: In theme one Eduard Paul Enoiu from Mälardalen University has been working towards a cognitive model of software testing based on how problem solving is conceptualized in cognitive psychology. This approach instantiates a general problem solving process for the specific problem of creating test cases in automated testing. A preliminary study led to a pilot experiment to understand the mechanisms by which human testers choose\, design\, implement and evaluate test cases and test design strategies. With such a model comes the opportunity to improve training and support of testing. One example of improvement\, observed in previous sprints\, is to augment human-created test suites with other automated test generation strategies (e.g.\, combinatorial coverage). \nEduard will be teaching in a course in Romania on Monday\, but will make a video that we can have as a basis for the discussion. \nThe link to the video is https://youtu.be/7FPXOSsgrMM

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Towards Continuous Delivery of ML/DL Systems
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly popular within companies across domains due to the success of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) technologies. For companies across domains\, the end-to-end process of developing\, deploying and successfully adopting ML/DL models in operation introduces several challenges related to the design\, the evolution and the scaling of these models. For example\, access and availability of data is often challenging and activities such as data collection\, data cleaning\, data pre-processing\, data storing\, as well as uploading\, training\, deployment\, and placement of model(s) in operation is complex. This is true particularly for large\, complex\, highly regulated and safety-critical embedded systems in areas such as e.g.\, telecom\, automotive\, defence\, security\, healthcare etc.  As part of the research\, we conduct studies covering the end-to-end process of ML/DL model development\, as well as in-depth studies focusing on the specifics of the deployment phase and how to operationalize these models in large-scale embedded systems\, and how to continuously deliver and evolve Machine Learning Systems (MLOps) to improve the key quality attributes of the larger system of which these are part. \nBio:  Meenu Mary John is a PhD candidate at Malmö University. Academic background in Computer Science and professional experience in the software industry. She conducts research in Data- and Al-driven Development. The intension is to enable and advance not only expert data scientists\, but also to encourage less-experienced data scientists\, software engineers and even non-experts to effectively approach the design and evolution of ML/DL models in today’s embedded systems industry where the shortage of highly skilled data scientists is a fact. The research is conducted as a multi-case study research within the context of the Software Center. \nPresentation from the meeting (pdf):\nTowards Continuous Delivery of ML/DL Systems\, by Meenu Mary John

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Towards Business Agility 2.0
DESCRIPTION:This lunch  seminar is hosted by Software Center Theme 4: ‘Customer Data and Ecosystem Driven Development’. Our speaker is Helena H. Olsson from Malmö University. \nTowards Business Agility 2.0\nBusiness agility is critical for companies across domains. It involves the ability to quickly respond to market dynamics and to emerging technologies. While business agility has predominantly been associated with the software industry it is rapidly becoming key for companies in the embedded systems industry. However\, while business agility refers the speed with which an organization can respond to changes\, the adoption of agile practices is fundamentally different in embedded systems companies compared to companies in the software industry. For embedded systems companies\, business agility requires all parts of the system to be agile\, including traditional technologies such as mechanics and electronics as well as digital technologies such as software\, data and AI. Hence\, agility means different things for the different technologies involved in an embedded system. Moreover\, while traditional technologies have so far been monetized using transactional business models\, digital technologies allow for continuous business models in which frequent improvements of system functionality makes systems improve throughout their economic life. In this talk\, we describe the shortcomings of what we refer to as Business Agility 1.0 and what is required for a company in order to achieve full business agility\, i.e.\, Business Agility 2.0. \n  \n__________________________ \n \nMicrosoft Teams meeting\n \nClick here to join the meeting \n \nLearn More | Meeting options \n \n________________________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY:Lunch seminar: Putting up an effective metrics program in only 18 months
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nCompany-wise measurement programs are socio-technological systems\, which combine social aspects of what\, when and where to measure with technical aspects of how to measure. These programs are usually difficult to establish as utilizing the measurement information in decision-making is more difficult than it seems. \nSpeaker\nOla Söder\, Expert Engineer from Axis Communications – presents the experiences from establishing a modern measurement program in close collaboration with Ericsson and Software Center. \nMaterial\nPutting up an effective metrics program in only 18 months – SOFTWARE CENTER (software-center.se) \nLink to MS Teams meeting: \n________________________________________________________________________________ \nMicrosoft Teams meeting \nJoin on your computer or mobile app \nClick here to join the meeting \nLearn More | Meeting options \n________________________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY:Lic seminar: Advancing continuous model-based development in industry
DESCRIPTION:You are all very welcome to attend the Licentiate seminar of Robbert Jongeling\, where he will present his licentiate thesis based on his work in the Software Center project #35\, Managing inconsistent development artefacts\n \nTitle: Advancing continuous model-based development in industry\nWhen: 13.30\, November 20\, 2020\nWhere: Zoom (link below) \n\n– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://mdh-se.zoom.us/j/69661661836 \nMeeting ID: 696 6166 1836\nPassword: 191021 \n– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – \n\nFaculty examiner (opponent):\nProfessor Manuel Wimmer\, Johannes Kepler University\, Linz (Austria) \nGrading Committee:\nProfessor Manuel Wimmer\, Johannes Kepler University\, Linz (Austria)\nProfessor Tomas Bures\, Charles University\, Prague (Czech Republic)\nAssociate Professor Regina Hebig\, Chalmers Tekniska Högskola\, Gothenburg (Sweden)\nProfessor Sasikumar Punnekkat\, MDH (reserve) \nAdvisors: \nJan Carlson\, Antonio Cicchetti and Federico Ciccozzi \nFor details\, see: http://www.idt.mdh.se/personal/jcn01/theses/RobbertJongeling-Lic/ \nAbstract:\nFor the development of complex software systems\, two paradigms have become popular in industry: model-based development and Agile software development. In model-based development\, models are the core development artifacts\, particularly in early development phases such as specification and design. The short development cycles of Agile development\, and in particular continuous integration\, are sometimes seen as conflicting with the apparent longer development phases in model-based development. We study how software development can benefit from combining these two paradigms successfully into continuous model-based development.\nIn this licentiate thesis\, we present four papers studying continuous model-based development of complex embedded systems in industry. The first two papers present investigations of the current state-of-the-art and state-of-practice of combining model-based development and continuous integration. In particular\, specific challenges to the combination are identified. In the third and fourth papers\, we focus on one of those challenges: model synchronization\, i.e.\, the management of consistency between disparate development artifacts describing the same system or parts of it. We propose a lightweight approach that notifies developers of arisen inconsistency between different models. Lastly\, we consider the aspect of variability among different development artifacts. In particular\, we provide automated support for alleviating manual tasks in maintaining consistency across model variants organized in a product line. \nWelcome!\nJan\, Antonio\, Federico and Robbert
