The week of April 15, we were in Lisbon for the 46th edition of the International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2024 🇵🇹). Since 1975, ICSE has provided a forum where researchers, developers and educators come together to present and discuss the latest innovations, trends, experiences and problems in the field of software engineering.
On March 25 and 26, 2024, together with the researchers involved in the CyberExcellence project, the flagship research project of the IIS CyberWal by DigitalWallonia, we visited the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT) at the University of Luxembourg.
On Thursday, February 8, 2024, I, together with Gilles Perrouin and Maxime Cordy, received the Ten-years Most Influential Paper award at the 18th International Working Conference on Variability Modelling of Software-Intensive Systems (VAMOS ‘24) in Bern, Switzerland.
Last November 2023, I took part in the Shonan seminar on the use of DevOps approaches for cyber-physical systems. It was an intense but interesting week, with 30 researchers from Japan, America and Europe, experts in software engineering, DevOps approaches and cyber-physical systems.
On July 4, the faculty’s teaching staff participated in a half-day training session on gender questions and representations in Computer Science courses. This training is part of the results of the research project Gender Equals Future: 011 for IT, in which Interface3.
At the end of March 2023, the Initiation to the Scientific Approach course poster session was held in the Faculty of Computer Science entrance hall. The course aims to provide bachelor’s and master’s students with a basis for decoding, analyzing and designing a research question, as well as the experimental protocol to answer it.
Busy week for the SNAIL team at the International Conference on Software Testing (ICST) 2023! First presentation of his work by Martin Balfroid at the TestEd workshop. It was an opportunity to meet experts from the software verification and validation community and to discuss the latest advances in the field.
On February 10th, Professor Cynthia Liem from the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands visited us at the Computer Science Faculty. This was an opportunity to talk about her research on verification and validation of machine learning models in different contexts and the fundamental questions this raises.
Two PhD students from the faculty each won a best poster award at the 3rd edition of Women and Girls in Science! One of the two is Guillaume Nguyen, PhD student of the SNAIL team and funded by the CyberExcellence project of the Walloon region.
